"We don't love qualities, we love persons; sometimes by reason of their defects as well as of their qualities.." 

💜❤️💜❤️💜

Oops.. Sorry Pragya..!.. Abhi says and she didn't move back from her position.. Abhi asides his face and corners his eyes at her, who was closing her eyes by leaning over him..

Oi.. Fuggi.. Open your eyes.. Abhi says.. and she opens her eyes.. She looks at him and moves back by pulling him along with her..

Fuggi, will you release me from you hug..?!.. Abhi asks and Pragya takes her hands away from him.. Her lips curved for a resilient smile..

Abhi flips his body towards her and caught her smiling.. He shrinks eyes and Pragya gestures him as what..!.. He glares at her and says.. Will you get down.. We have reached the venue..

She looks to her side.. And saw the well decorated house.. She bit her tongue and gets down from the bike.. While Abhi parked his bike in between the other vehicles.. They saw people walking inside the house with their smiling faces and everyone looked well dressed.. Abhi looks into the rear mirror of his bike adjusts his hair style.. He pulls Pragya's dupatta and wipes his face..

He turns to her who says.. Shall we leave now..?.. Abhi sighs at her and gets close to her saying.. No.. What is all this..?!.. Your hair is too messy.. and look at your face.. It's dull and looking besotted..

Pragya lifts her brows and Abhi winks at her.. He grabs her bag and throws his hand into it.. He pulls out her water bottle and gives it to saying.. Wash your face soon..

Where.. Here..?!.. She asks and Abhi nods his head.. Haan.. just splash few drops on your face.. He says.. She gives him an empty look.. While empty open the bottle cap and forwards to her.. She bends aside and splashes few drops over her face.. Abhi grabs her dupatta and wipes her face..

He leans close to her and traces her messy hair.. He started with her forehead and then slide his fingers to her either sides.. He tucked few of her strands behind her ears and pulls some hair on to her left shoulders.. He pulps her curly end of the hair.. He blows on her eyes gently and she flutters her lashes..

He then takes her duppata and spreads it well.. He places it over her right shoulder and balances it front and back.. He placed the duppata over the shoulder and pressed his palm over it slightly and asks looking.. You have any safety pin..?!.. She nods and points towards her bag.. Fuggi.. I'm holding your dupatta.. Just get it out from your bag.. He says..

She grabs her bag and takes out the safety pin and forwards it to him.. He pins her dupatta.. and spreads it well on to her sides.. He turns Pragya to face him, while she kept ogling at him with a appealing smile.. while Abhi too smiles back at her and says.. Now, just look at you.. How beautiful you are..?!.. My fuggi is just looking elegant and gorgeous with your simplicity..

He flips her to the other side and pulls her to the near by car.. They stood looking at her.. Pragya stood in awe, while Abhi places his face over her shoulder and winks at her..

Shall we get in now..?!.. Abhi asks and she nods at him.. They walked in after taking their bags.. As they walked in, their favorite lecturer Stella Mam gave them a warm welcome.. While Abhi and Pragya wished her for her Birthday..

After the cake cutting.. Abhi And Pragya enjoyed the party.. They stayed for an hour and then started from there..

The dark windy sky was getting more cloudy, with the rainy drops hitting the ground slowly.. Pragya sat leaning over him and covered herself with her dupatta.. While Abhi was riding the bike on high speed..

Abhishek.. Stop the bike.. Pragya shouts loud and he stops the bike with a sudden brake..!.. Have you gone nuts..!.. Why did you shout..?!.. He scowls at her..

My house is in this street.. She says.. Abhi sighs at her and says.. I know.. I'm dropping you there nah..!..

No no.. I will get down here.. I don't want anyone to us together.. If Chachi gets to know, then she will.. .. before she could complete Abhi cuts off her and says.. Come on fuggi.. Your Chachi is not at home nah..!.. Then what.. I will drop you there..

No Abhishek.. Please try to understand.. I don't want to take any risk.. She says.. Okay fine.. At least I can walk with you till the gate nah..?!.. Abhi asks and she nods her head hesitantly.. He then parks his bike on a side and walks along with her..

Pragya.. Why are you so scared about your Chachi..?!.. Is she that bad..!?.. Abhi asks walking beside her..

She isn't bad.. but very strict.. I mean, she doesn't likes me and Bulbul to get friendly with others.. I fact, we don't who stays in our neighborhoods.. I have always stayed reserved and compacted with myself.. I didn't had any friends in my school life.. And college.. Only you, Sandy and Nisha.. But Bulbul is way too opposite to me.. She has lot of friends and she hangs out with them well.. Many times she was been caught by Chachi.. and we both have faced her wrathful words.. Sometimes she used to.. .. Pragya pauses as her eyes fell over her house gate..

We have reached home.. She says ending her previous topic.. Abhi sighs at her and says in a sad tone.. Pragya.. We have three days leave.. I don't know how I am gonna stay alone.. Even Sandy is not here..

Ohoo.. No worries.. Tomorrow evening we will meet at park which is near to our college.. She says and Abhi gives her a gleeful smile, while she continued.. Done.. Tomorrow evening 6 pm.. And you have a surprise too..

Abhi shrinks his eyes and Pragya walks across the gate, while Abhi gave her a impotent sight.. She waves bye to him and disappears soon into the house.. While he stood ruffling his hair behind..

!¡!¡!¡!¡!¡!¡

At Present..

Next day, morning..

Pragya flips aside and lifts herself to sit over the bed properly.. She looks around the room.. and her lips curved for a smile on earning the newfangled love by him.. She gently kept her right hand on her tummy with a graceful and says.. My baby... Toady I'm so happy.. Yes.. you know.. your papa has finally accepted you.. You are so lucky to get him as your father.. I promise you that he will be the world's best father.. You are going to get inside his hands who will shelter you with utmost care and love..!..

She moves to the corner of the bed and was about to step down, but stops looking at the door which was opened..

Abhi walked in with his hands behind.. His face was glittering with bright smile and the way he walked towards her denoted to her that he is in a ebullient mood..

Good morning fuggi..!.. Abhi says and sits opposite to her.. While she mout her lips at him and Abhi rolls his eyes at her..

You know, how much I missed you calling that..!.. Saying so, he mout at her back.. While she shook her head with disbelief..

By the way.. I have a surprise for you.!.. Abhi says and winks at her.. Pragya slides aside and throws her eyes at his back, while Abhi forwards his hand..

She was surprised and amazed to looks at the bunch of white roses in his hands.. She grabbed them immediately and inhales the fragrance.. The next second, she dropped it and rushes towards the washroom..

Abhi stands up immediately and stood  muddled.. He peeps towards her and walks towards the washroom.. He saw her walking out of the washroom with a stale face.. He rushes to her and touches her forehead asking.. Pragya.. Are you fine.. What happened..?!..

She walks across him and settles over the bed, while Abhi steps close to her asking again.. She looks at the water bottle, which was on the other side of the bed.. Abhi leans over the bed and grabs the bottle.. He forwards it to her, and she sips few drops..

Abhi sits opposite to her and sounded tensed.. Fuggi.. are you fine..?!.. What happened..?!.. Pragya keeps the bottle aside and let's out a weak smile.. Relax Abhishek.. I'm fine.. It's just my morning sickness.. It happens often and this fragrance is impacting it more I think..

Abhi looks at the bunch of flower and grabs it.. He throws it aside and it landed over the couch.. Abhishek, what are you doing..?!..

Never ever sniff that again.. and I should beat myself.. It's was my mistake that I bought it.. I thought, you love them.. so you will be surprised.. Abhi's tone was tauten..

Ohoo.. I said relax.. Fine I won't do that again.. By the way.. What are you doing here at this time.. You didn't go to office..?!.. She asks..

Office.. For what..?!.. He asks.. And she sighs at him.. Stop being irresponsible.. I can take care of myself.. Just get ready and go to office..

No.. I won't.. Because I want to stay with my Fuggi and I want my daughter to be not like you..!.. Abhi mocks his tone.. And Pragya shrinks her eyes.. While he continued.. Haan.. I know that you were talking to her, before I walked in.. I'm sure you must have talked something against me.. But she will not listen to you.. Because, she is already Papa's girl.. Just like me strong and brave.. I don't want her to be like.. Dull, boring and most importantly.. a scary cat..!.. He completes in a taunting tone..

Pragya grabs the near by pillow and started to hit him continuously.. while he kept protest her.. Just then, they heard Tanu's loud voice.. They stepped down and walked out of the room..

At Downstairs..

Can't you just do a work properly..?!.. It's been more than 10 minutes, I asked you for my green tea.. and you still didn't get me.. What the hell you are doing inside the kitchen..?!.. She scowls at Robin.. who stood in front of her with his head down and hands at his back..

Abhi looks at Pragya, who gave him an empty look.. And Abhi gestures her.. He walks down towards Tanu.. who was scolding Robin again..

Tanu..!.. Abhi's loud voice flipped her attention towards him.. He walks close to her Tanu says.. It's good that you came.. He is nowadays getting very lazy.. He is not doing his work properly.. Just fire him for this job Abhi.. She sounded curt..

Abhi walks close to Robin and stands beside him.. He looks at Tanu, who smirks at Robin.. Abhi turns to him and asks.. What were you doing Robin..?!..

Robin looks at him and sounded in alow tone.. Sir, I was busy in preparing breakfast for Pragya di.. So.. .. before he could complete.. Tanu cuts off him saying.. So what.. haan..!.. Can't you do that after getting my green tea..?!..

Tanu.. Stop it..!.. Abhi yells at her and she jerks behind.. And he continues.. You don't have any rights to raise your voice at him.. You know who is he..?!.. He is from my hometown.. Like my brother.. He is working here as per Dadi's auspices.. Not even once  we have treated him like a servant here.. He is one among us.. Let this be the last time.. He turns to Robin and asks him to go..

Tanu stood shocked at his sudden wrath, while Abhi walks upstairs.. She then stormed into her room and banged the door..

What the hell..?!.. He scolded me infornt of that Robin and above all he is taking his side.. I thought to fire him from job, so that he won't spill about Pragya and the surrogacy to that old dame lady.. If she gets to know, then she will start to manipulate Abhi against me.. Already he is miffed with me because of the baby.. At any cost, I can't afford to lose him nor this baby.. After all, this is my trump card to settle my life.. She riled her words and grabs her mobile..

With Abhi..

He walks into Pragya's room, and saw inside the wardrobe.. Fuggi.. He calls her and she flips facing towards him.. and Abhi says.. Get freshen up soon and come down.. We will have breakfast together.. She nods to him, while Abhi walks out of the room..

After 15 minutes..

She walks out of the washroom and stood looking at the bunch of flower over the couch.. She picks them hugs them close to her with a smile and reminisces about her beautiful memories..

!¡!¡!¡!¡

Back to Past..

Abhi was sitting  with a miffed face under a dense tree, where the branches of the tree were spread wide and the leaves were dark green.. He looks around him and saw no one..

Where is she..?!.. She said 6 pm.. But she isn't here still..!.. He murmurs angrily.. Just then, he saw a shadow beclouding him.. He was about to turn, but a loud kooky sound hit his ears..

Boo..!..

Abhi lurches back and shouts in fear.. And the next second he heard a feminine laugh behind him.. He turns his face and was shocked to see the sight in front of him..!..
