Sidharth

She is peacefully sleeping in my arms right now. I can't help but smile looking at her. No matter how mad I am at her, her peaceful kid-like face melts all my anger. Well yes, I was mad at her for how she behaved in front of my mom and most importantly she lied and made me lie too. In 28 years I have never ever lied to my mom and right now I am feeling as if I have betrayed my mother.

Sighing, I got up from the bed placing a pillow at my place. She frowned as if she knew that its not me, making me smile. She might not say but she does feel for me. After glancing for the last time I went out of the guest room. I don't want mom to walk in and catch our lie. I just hope I could tell her the truth soon.

"Sidharth..." Shit, mom!

"Yeah mom, woh main...I mean hum, we...We were working, yeah working, and then...Then she slept. So I was just going back to my room." Stammering I said what came into my mind in the first place.

"But I didn't ask anything to you, did I?" Mom asked raising her eyebrows. Whom I was kidding with. She is my mom. She can catch my lie just by looking into my eyes.

"You really love her." She stated making my eyes go wide. Did she know that Shehnaaz is the girl I am seeing?

"Mom...App...I mean kiski...Mtlb app." I stammered not knowing what to say. She chuckled and asked me to come with her. We went to her room. She sat on the bed and I laid down with my head in her lap.

"Shehnaaz, yehi hai na vo ladki. Aur tu usse bohot pyaar karta hai. Itna ki apni maa se jhoot bhi bol sakta hai." She said making me go on a guilt trip.

"I am so sorry mom. I didn't want to lie to you." I said hugging her waist.

"Hmmm, to bataya kyun nahi?" She asked caressing my hair.

"She doesn't want me to tell. She is afraid that you will not like her and will ask me to break all ties with her. She is way too insecure mom." I told her lying straight and looking up at her.

"Rubbish, I love her. In fact, when I first met her, since then I have loved her. In fact, I was thinking of making you both meet and see if there's this spark between you or not. I would love to have her as my daughter-in-law." She said smiling making me smile too. This is a good feeling, my mom and my lover will gell up well and I would not have been sandwiched between them.

"By the way when and how did you guys meet?" I asked her. She told me how she came to the old age home at night, and then stayed there for three days. How she cried in her arms and then cried talking over the phone. She also told me that she shared about her family and her relationship with her parents. How her parents accused her of having an affair with me aka me.

"I really wonder that she is so broken because of all these. I mean, yes in sab se farak padta hai, dil bhi dukhta hai but she sounds so broken. Can this really be the reason for her to be so bitter about her family that she left them, that she chose to live alone rather than going with them?" Mom said sending me in deep thinking.

"No, but these things do matter. Kabhi kabhi choti choti cheeze itni ho jati hai ki nafrat dil main baithne lagti hai. The same is with her. She remained silent for long but when she spoke, it was like a volcano eruption. But I also know that there's more to her story. She herself said that she is hiding things from me. And you know, this is the main problem. She thinks that once I know her secret, her past, I will leave her. I tried a lot to make her feel secure mom, but her fear doesn't go away." I said feeling sad, sad for her. Man hi man mein sab kuch sehena accha nahi hota and she has been doing this for so long.

"Use bohot time bad pyaar karne vala mila hai na isiliye darti hai. Aur yeh dar tab tak nahi jayega jab tak vo tujhe poora sach nahi bata deti. Give her time son. She will come around. Ghav bharne mein samay to lagta hai na." I just hummed in response planning with her fingers.

"Kuch bolna ya poochna hai?" I smiled, my mom doesn't need words. She understands me just by looking at me.

"I was thinking, I mean she says that when I will get to know the truth I won't be able to take it. What if...Mom what if I can't really take in the truth? What if I really won't be able to accept her past? You know what I mean, right," I asked hesitantly. This question has been roaming in my mind for a long.

"You have to answer this to yourself son. Tujhe yeh decide karna hoga ki tere lie kya zaroori hai, Shehnaaz ya koi beeti bat. Ho sakta hai jo bhi hua ho usme Sana victim ho ya ho sakta hai culprit ho. Kabhi na kabhi galtiyan life mein sab karte hain, tabhi to insaan bante hai. You have to decide that whether you want to love her for what she is now or you want to judge her for what have happened or for what she had done in past. Yeh tere upar hai, tu apne pyaar ko jeetne deta hai ya uske dar ko." Mom explained it to me and yes, she is right. I already knew this from before but listening it from mom, the one person who I believe can't say anything wrong, I am sure about it. My love will win no matter what her past is. This is what it is, past.

Smiling I got up from her lap and kissed her forehead saying a thank you and then hugging her. I got the best mom in the world.

"I love you, mom. You are the best." Here I have to say this. I believe in one thing, we should keep expressing our love to the people important to us especially our parents. They do so much for us, we can at least show them how thankful we are and how much love and respect we have for them. No matter how much you earn and how luxurious a life you give to them, your one I love you is enough for them. This is the best gift we can give to them.

After that, I left her room making sure she is asleep comfortably, and went to my baby. She is sleeping hugging the pillow tightly but there's a frown on her face. I got into the bed and removed the pillow, taking her in my arms. Her frown vanished and her lips gave away a small smile, making my heart swell up with the love I have for her. I kissed her forehead and slipped into a deep slumber. Peaceful slumber.

*

I woke up early in the morning to a very beautiful site. My baby in my arms, clinging to me like a koala bear. I admired her for good fifteen minutes and then left the room to go to the gym.

I came back from the gym at around 8 'o'clock. I have decided to take an off today and spend time with the two most important ladies of my life, my mom and my baby.

"Sidharth, aa gaya baccha. Ja jakar fresh hoja. Ajj maine apne baccho ke lie apne hath se breakfast banaya hai. Aur sun sana ko bhi utha diyo. Abhi thori der pehele gayi thi to gehri neend mein so rahi thi." Mom said coming out of the kitchen and setting the dining table.

"Morning mom, and um...Kya khushboo aa rahi hai. Main abhi bata hoon." I said walking up to her and pecked her forehead before running upstairs to freshen up and wake up my baby.

I entered the room to see her sleeping peacefully. Previously she used to wake up early no matter how late she slept. She told me that it's a habit as whenever she didn't take the medicines, she was not able to sleep and she hated to take sleeping pills, so the maximum time she used to sleep only three to four hours, eventually, it became a habit. Not wanting to remember any depressing thing, I sighed and moved up to the windows and open the curtains to let the sunlight enter. She stirred with sudden brightness and then woke up slowly. I woke her up saying it's already nine, which was true by the way. She got up with a jerk and started her blabber about being late and all. I stared at her amused. She was looking so cute, with messy hair, slight pink cheeks, and nose tip and her plum lips, hayee, main mar jawan.

I stopped her in track by hugging her from behind. I kissed her earlobe and slightly bit it feeling her shudder under my touch. I smirked at the reaction her body gives when I touch her as if every cell of her body rose up suddenly. She whispered my name making me groan. Turning her around, I informed her about the day off. She border but suddenly her mood changed as if she remembered something and then her eyes filled up.

She started to apologize about what happened yesterday without letting me speak. I wanted to tell her that it's okay, that I can understand but well she is Shehnaaz. She doesn't let me say anything so I did the first thing that came to my mind to stop her blabber, I kissed her. This was a slow kiss. I wanted to tell her that I am here, that I understand, and that I love her.

We broke the kiss when we were out of our breaths and rested our foreheads against each other catching our breath.

"Sidharth..."I shushed her by keeping my finger on her lips.

"I understand baby, neither you have to feel guilty nor apologize. Everything's all right." I said looking into her eyes. She looked into my eyes as if she was trying to read something.

"No, everything is not all right. I know you were hurt and somewhere you are still upset. Is it because I didn't tell your mom about us? If this is the reason for the hurt in your eyes then tell me, please. I will go right now and tell her the truth and apologize. I swear," I looked at her amused. She read my eyes. Yes, I can understand her but somewhere I was upset because of lying to mom.

"Aisa kuch nahi hai baby. Everything is really alright." I said fully knowing that she would not be convinced.

"Tujhe meri kasam, bata kya bat hai." She used her final weapon, fully knowing I can never ignore her Kasam. Sighing I looked at her.

"Okay, I was upset but now I am good..." She interrupted in between, "You are still upset. Don't lie to me Sidharth. Itna to samjhne lagi hoon main tujhe ki bata saku ki tu upset aur jhoot bol raha hai." She said taking me by surprise.

"It's nothing serious. I...I have never lied to my mom ever, like never ever. Bachpan se lekar ajj tak sab kuch mom ke sath share kiya hai. Chahe vo koi khushi ki bat ho ya dhukh ki. Agar kabhi shaitani karke padka bhi jata tha na to mom ke pas ata tha. I have lied to dad, to dada, dadi but mom, never." I sighed saying this. Call me momma's boy, I won't mind. My mom is my world. I looked at her and her eyes are yet again wet with tears pouring down her cheek.

"Shehnaaz..." I sighed wiping her tears. This is the reason I didn't want to say the truth.

"I am sorry, sab meri wajah se hai. Yet again it's proven that I am not at all a good choice for you. Meri wajah se tune jhuth bola. Meri wajah se you are hurt. Aur jab maa ko pata chalega to vo bhi hurt hongi, sab meri wajah se. I don't deserve you." She cried hugging me, apologizing again and again.

"Aisa hai to hug kyun kar rahi hai? Kiss kyun kiya? Nahi karna chahiye tha na. Aur yahan kyun hai jab tu mujhe deserve hi nahi karti to." I said a little annoyed. I have heard this so many times that I am slightly agitated now. She came out of the hug and glared at me.

"Tu chahata hai ki main chali jau. Tujhe nahi accha lagta jab mein tujhe hug ya kiss karti hoon to. Pak gaya hai mujhse. Thak gaya na tu bhi mere behavior se." She said sniffing with tears flowing down her eyes. Her face is red right now. No doubt I hate her tears but she is looking so sexily cute with her angry pout right now, that I want to eat her up.

Groaning, I pulled her by holding her small face in my big hands and kissed her. This kiss is passionate. This kiss is hungry. I pinched her waist earning a moan from her. Taking the opportunity I entered her mouth and savored each and every corner of her mouth. I sucked both her lips and bit her lower lip harshly making her moan and slap my chest but that just ignited me more. I pushed her back till her back hits the wall, crushing her between the wall and myself. I pushed myself as close as physically possible so that even the air can't pass through. After what felt like an eternity I broke the kiss feeling her go breathless. I moved to her neck and placed open mouth kisses over there making her moan.

"Sidharth..." She moaned moving her head back, giving me more access to her milky smooth skin. She caressed my hair to calm me down. I know I have to stop or else something would happen that we both are not ready for, well at least she is not.

"Don't ever say again that you don't deserve me or anything like that. You are my happiness. I want you by my side forever, in all the times be it be happy, sad, or anything. Now go and freshen up before I lose my control." I said with closed eyes and loosen to my grip around her arms. She immediately ran into the bathroom. She might be so shy. I chuckled imagining her red tomato-like face. I went out of the room not wanting her to feel embarrassed or something.
