Then Ragini asked abhi,

Ra: abhi what gift did you bring for pragya..

Ab: arey maa...I gave her my gift before 7 months..

Saying kissed his fingers and kept it on her baby bump..

Pragya hitted him as he is romancing with her Infront of everyone ..but abhi said

Ab: arey jaanu... don't be jealous...

Saying he kissed her cheek..

Pragya face palms to hide her blush..

All smiles seeing them..

Then when Disha and purab are fighting with each other about how baby will call them, abhi goes to them..

Ab: why are you both fighting for this...we will tell the baby to call you both as it's wish..

Pu: Haan ..this is a nice idea

Di: no baby will call me as maasi and not as badi maa or chachi..

Abhi whispers to purab ," girls are difficult to convince... you just give in to her wish now..we will see later..."

Purab nods and hugs Disha and says," fine baby...baby will call you as maasi itself...you are happy now"

At that time pragya comes there and hugs abhi..

Abhi panicks," you got pain? ....shall we go to hospital..."

Pragya says," paagal... It's just my 7 th month .....I am tired"

Abhi kisses her head and says," come I will take you to the room"

Saying he lifted her in his arms..

Pragya whispers," Jaan.. leave me .see guests are laughing...what will others think..."

Ab: let them think whatever they want..I am carrying my wife,what for them..

Pragya smiles and keeps her head on his shoulder and hugs him..

Then he went to the room and made her to lay on the bed..

Ab: change your dress and sleep..

Pragya nods whereas abhi goes out..

After guests leave from there, abhi asked Ragini

Ab: maa.. how did you wake pragya

Ra: I said she can sleep after finishing the rituals ...

Abhi smiles..

Pu: she is getting tired often...

Ab: that is also good...if she sleeps then I can do other works too..

Di: I will go and tell this to pragya now itself..

Abhi holds her hand and says," arey meri pyaari bhabhi...I was just kidding"

Disha glares at him and gives a glass of milk to him and says..

Di: make her to drink this...

Abhi gets that hurriedly and rushed to his room...

He opened the room and sees her sleeping with a hand over her baby bump...

His heart warmed seeing his family...she is his everything..

He sits near her and wakes her..

Ab: jaanu...

Pragya slowly opened her eyes ..

She whines

Pr: now what

Abhi chuckles and says," change your dress and sleep..."

Pr: it's okay

Ab: no ....go and wear some loose dress...

Pr: this dress is loose Jaan

Ab: jaanu... don't make me angry

Suddenly pragya's sleep flew away, she gets up and glares at him

Pr: you will get angry on me?

Abhi nods as yes and says

Ab: if you are not taking care of our baby, then of course I will get angry...

Pragya mutters," now itself started loving the baby more than me"

Saying she went inside the changing room..

She came out in her night gown..

She lays on the bed ...

Abhi feeds her milk ....

He bends down and kisses her baby bump, whereas pragya felt a kick ...

She gasped in pain whereas abhi panicks," what happened jaanu"

Pr: baby kicked..

Ab: nowadays the baby is very active...

Pr: Haan... today itself baby kicked me nearly twenty times..

Ab: dadi said now whatever we speak baby will listen it..

Abhi lays on her lap and talks to the baby..

Ab: baby...are you comfortable inside..

Pragya hits him ... abhi chuckles and says

Ab: then what shall I talk...

Pragya keeps her hand on her baby bump and says," baby... Mumma and papa loves you a lot...when you become big you should always make your dad proud.. don't hear your dad's words then you will get spoilt... only listen to mumma.."

Ab: come out fast , then papa will give you another sibling to play with you..

Pragya closes his mouth with her palm and scolds him

Pr: what are you saying to our baby..

Abhi takes her palm and kisses it..

Pragya smiles at him and then both sleeps..

Next day morning, while pragya is praying ,she hears abhi shouting from the washroom," jaanu towel"

Pragya rolls her eyes and goes inside the changing room and knocks the washroom door..

Pr: how many times I should tell you to take towel before entering the washroom...why are you like this Jaan..

Hearing her scolding abhi came out of the washroom in his bathrobe...

Pragya sees him and confusedly asks

Pr: you are having bathrobe right then why did you call me...

Abhi frowns and says

Ab: nowadays you are always scolding me, I called you because I thought of having some wet romanc...

Pragya closed his mouth and eyes at her baby bump..but abhi pushed her hand and walked out of the dressing room...

Pragya rushed behind him...

Seeing her running ,abhi holds her shoulder and scolds her lightly..

Ab: jaanu...how many times I said you not to run with the baby ...see floor is wet ,what if you fell down..

Pr: I am sorry Jaan...I am scolding you more right... please forgive me...

Ab: aye paagal ...I was just playing with you...

Pragya glares at him and then says

Pr: I will see you later

Saying she started toweling his wet hair with her duppatta...

Pr: became papa but still don't know to towel the hair properly....

Abhi smiles at her ...

Many days later...

Ab: please jaanu ....I am not going ... don't force me

Pr: Jaan .... I am sure you will receive the award,so you must go..

Ab: arey Disha and Bhai are going right, they will get that.... only one week is there for your due date, now I will not leave you and go anywhere...

Pr: still nine days are there jaan...not one week... please go..

Abhi nods negatively... seeing him stubborn pragya says

Pr: now itself you are not listening to my words,then after our baby comes you will totally avoid me...

Seeing her drama ,abhi says

Ab: will you let me to be in peace if I didn't go

Pragya nods negatively

Ab:  will you scold me by saying this till we get old

Pragya controls her smile and nods as yes..

Abhi sighs and says," fine...I will come back soon"
