Sanyukta turned to her left as she snuggled more into the white sheets, placing her hand on Soham's side of the bed to cuddle with him.

Feeling the empty bed, Sanyukta got up rubbing her eyes half asleep wondering where he could have gone.

She slowly got out of bed and pushed her feet into her fluffy black bed slippers, which were sitting beside the nightstand, and fixed his shirt which she threw on a few hours ago.

'The bathroom lights aren't on so where could he be?' she thought as she walked out of the room yawning.

"Soh?" she called softly, her voice raspy from just getting up.

Like a child, she walked down the stairs rubbing her eyes in search of her husband.

Suddenly, she heard shuffling coming from the kitchen, and in curiosity, she walked towards the door.

"Soh?" She asked in confusion pushing the door open. "What are you doing here? It's 5 am."

"I was hungry and came to eat some ice cream," he replied cutely, licking off the spoon as he held the ice cream tub in hand, with a cream mustache above his lip.

"Aww."

Sanyukta went up to him and pecked his lips, going on her tippy toes to reach his height making his shirt go up with her.

"Strawberry ice cream?" she asked, tasting the cream.

"Yup, your favorite."

"And you didn't wake me up! Soh!"

Sanyukta folded her arms across her chest and pouted like a child, turning her back at him.

"Sorry Sani but you were sleeping so peacefully I didn't want to wake you up." He placed the tub on the counter and snaked his hands around her waist, playing with the button of the shirt.

"I won't talk to you," she huffed.

"Are you sure?" he asked, nuzzling his head more into her neck.

"Very."

"Do you mean it?"

Now grazing his lips against the skin of her neck, Sanyukta found it very hard not to stick to her words.

Soon, the slow unbuttoning of the shirt and his deep kisses on her neck caused her chest to heave, her breathing now uneven.

She tilted her back so that it was touching his shoulder as if allowing him more space to continue his sweet torture which he did passionately.

"Soham," a whisper escaped her lips that in a matter of seconds fueled his actions, much to both of their enjoyment.

"Tell me sweetheart, do you mean what you said?" he said in between his kisses, his hot breath fanning on her neck.

"Yeah," she breathed, trying to keep her composer that was slowly becoming futile as she closed her eyes in ecstasy.

"Are you sure?" he asked, resting his hand on her stomach as he drew circles above her belly button and soon after, slowly inching further up her chest.

"Okay, fine you win." She gave in which put a smile on his face but he didn't stop with his romantic ways.

He turned her around and placed his forehead against hers. "Why are you so beautiful and tempting? I mean if looks could kill I would be dead already."

Sanyukta smiled and broke away from his hold, sitting on the counter beside the half-empty ice cream tub.

"I was born that way, beautiful."

He placed his hands on either side of her hips and leaned in with his mouth open. "I believe that next scoop of ice cream is mine."

"You already ate half, this half is mine."

"Just one spoon."

"No."

"Please, Sani."

"No."

"For me, your Soh bear, your Mr. Gummy bear, your lifeline."

"Why are you so cute?"

She moved the spoon filled with ice cream away from her mouth and placed it in his making him smile again.

"Thank you."

Sanyukta continued to eat and Soham continued to steal scoops of ice cream by grabbing her hand and pushing the spoon into his mouth.

"Aren't you supposed to be getting ready for work? I don't want, uh what's his name-"

"Dr. Malhotra."

"Yeah, Dr. Malhotra to get angry at you again. I will pick out your clothes while you shower or do you want to me shower with you?" His voice deepened getting lower and huskier as he leaned closer to her lips which were covered with ice cream.

"No, I will shower by myself thank you, and my shift doesn't start until 9."

"I still like that tattoo of my name. It makes me feel so special, so loved."

"Because you are." Sanyukta wrapped her hand around his neck and kissed his cheek.

"You know," he started, moving a strand of her loose hair behind her ear. "You look so ravishing in my shirt."

His hand then slowly began to run up her thighs, his eyes piercing hers as if he was anticipating a response. It settled there, caressing her skin while his eyes read the emotions that were written boldly in her eyes.

Her partially unbuttoned shirt that revealed to him, once again, her beautiful mounds that made his eyes fluctuate between her eyes and what was flashing him so teasingly, causing a wave of chaos to erupt within him once more.

Picking up on his hint and gaze, she playfully slapped his chest and buttoned the shirt back up then, continued to eat.

"Don't get any ideas okay. After this, I am going back to sleep."

He chuckled and moved the spoon away from her mouth and put it in his.

"That was the last scoop!" Sanyukta whined while he laughed.

"Sorry, I will buy you another one."

"You're sleeping on the couch!" Saying that Sanyukta stormed upstairs to their room with Soham running behind her laughing.

"Ugh! I swear I hate bras!" she yelled in frustration as she tried once again to hook the back of her bra.

"Mind if I help?" Soham asked startling her.

"Gosh, Soham knock."

"Do you mind if I help?" he asked again.

"I'm fine, thank you though."

Sanyukta tried again and again but failed try after try. In a fit of rage she was about to throw the bra but feeling his hands on hers before she could remove the bra, made her stop.

"Let me help you, sweetheart."

She slowly removed her hands and adjusted it a little for him to hook the back, her eyes not moving from his reflection in the mirror as he hooked the straps together.

His rough hands constantly brushing against her bare back made her shiver a bit.

"There," he spoke, placing his hands on her shoulders, staring at her in the mirror.

"You know you are the most beautiful woman in the world. Never let anyone make you think otherwise." He placed a kiss on her cheek and moved towards the door. "Breakfast is ready and guess who is downstairs."

"Who?"

"Ma."

Sanyukta smiled and hurried towards the bed where her blouse was sitting.

"I will be down in a minute."

"Okay hurry, Aisha is going hard on the pancakes."
~
"Ma," she called chirpily as she walked over to Urmi who was sitting across from Soham, to hug her.

"I missed you. Hi Vanya."

She flashed her a smile with only a tooth sticking out of her bottom gum as she threw her hands in the air.

"I missed you too beta. How are-" before she could finish a loud gunshot was heard.

"Ma take Vanya with you upstairs. Sanyukta and Aisha go with her."

"What no I can't leave you guys here."

"Yeah, same here."

"Just go!" Soham roared.

"Soham sir! Soham-" before Nikhil could shout again, he was shot in the head.

Vanya started crying as Urmi took her out of her highchair and Sanyukta shouted for her and Aisha to go upstairs while she and Soham stay downstairs to deal with the matter.

"I can't-"

"Ma just go please!" They both said in unison.

With that being said, Urmi took Vanya and Aisha upstairs to hide until things cool down.

"Sanyukta you go as well. I have a gun in my study, I will handle this."

"No, if we die today then we die together."

"Sanyukta just fucking listen to me! Go up-"

"How sweet." It has been a year since she heard that voice. That voice of the person whom she thought she could call her friend.

Ishaan walked into the house holding a gun in his hand, looking horrible from head to toe.

"What happened to you?" Sanyukta asked.

"The love I have for you is what has happened to me." He staggered across the hall holding the gun tightly pointing it at her.

"Look Ishaan you have a problem with me right, then why are you dragging Sanyukta in the middle? Let's talk about this man to man."

"Just shut the fuck up Soham! You know I always thought I would tell Sanyukta my feelings but I couldn't built up the courage. That was my mistake! That was my fucking mistake!"

He walked closer to them with anger visible in his eyes and his finger now on the trigger.

"Don't shoot Ishaan! Don't shoot!" Soham yelled.

"Ishaan I never loved you. I always saw you as a friend and even if you told me before I got married to Soham I would have still said no."

"That's not true! I know you love me!"

"No I don't Ishaan, please try to understand."

"No no no!" He pointed the gun to the floor and fired in anger. "You are mine! I tried to move on, trust me I did but I couldn't. I started to drink and now look at me, I'm now an alcoholic.

I swear tried to forget you but I just couldn't, that's why I waited so long. So that you could spend some time with this piece of garbage before I kill him."

"Look Ishaan we can work this out just put the-" before she could finish, he yelled.

"I want you to divorce him right now!"

"Ishaan you can't do this," Soham said trying to move closer to him to grab the gun out of his hands.

"I can and I will! Sanyukta baby I know you love me."

"No I don't Ishaan."

"She doesn't love you please try to-"

"Ugh! I hate you!" He pointed the gun at Soham and pulled the trigger.

"Soham!"

The loud scream of Sanyukta hit his ear drums but he didn't feel the piercing pain of the bullet whatsoever.

He opened his eyes and saw Sanyukta standing in front of him, her hands holding her lower chest with droplets of blood dripping on the floor repeatedly.

"Sanyukta!" He shouted catching her as she fell back into his arms in pain and in tears, her hand now fully covered in blood.

The gun fell from Ishaan's hands and in shock he fell to the floor as well. All he could hear was her shouting Soham's name and the sight of the bullet entering her body.

"Why the fuck did you come in between huh! Why! What in the fucking world did you think! I can't lose you!" He yelled cupping her face with tears rolling down his cheeks.

"S-Sanyuk-" before Ishaan could finish Soham picked up the gun which was a few feet away from him and shot him twice.

"Because I didn't want to lose you."

"But I don't want to lose you either! How I am going to live without you? You said that if we die today we die together, so I will also shoot myself."

"N-No! I love you a lot but I have to go."

"You aren't going anywhere!" Saying that he took her up in his arms and rushed to the door.

"You have to keep your eyes open for me sweetheart. Sanyukta? Sanyukta open your eyes sweetheart! Sanyukta!"
~~~~~~~~~~~
Present Time
9:10 am

Sanyukta jumped out of her eight months long coma sweating and breathing heavily.

Soham's eyes fell on her and he rushed over to her hospital bed in joy that she finally woke up.

"Sani are you okay? Hey, it's me Soh, your Soh." He held her shoulders gently as she looked around frantically, squinting her eyes to adjust to the sudden light. "Doctor! Doctor come quick!"

The doctor who was looking after her for the past eight months rushed into the ward and took up an injection to inject her for her to calm down.

"S-Soham?" she said softly, holding his hand tightly.

"Yes it's me sweetheart, your Soham."

The doctor injected her in her arm and made her lay down slowly as she gradually calmed down.

"Mom! Dad! Ma! Papa! Aisha!" Soham shouted peeping out the door. "She's awake."

They rushed inside and saw her looking around at everything and her hand extended out for Soham to hold.

"Bhaiya bhabhi wants to hold your hand."

Soham sat on the bed next to her and hugged her tightly while she did the same. He planted millions of kisses on her face as he thought he almost lost his life, his ladylove, his everything.

"I love you!" they said in unison, breaking the hug to kiss each other not caring who was around to see them.
