Viraj unlocked the door of his house  and stepped aside letting Naina and Veer enter first. Veer had fallen asleep. Poor baby was super tired after scribbling all the drawings in his book. "Naina why don't you put him in the guest bedroom and freshen up." She nodded her head with a smile and moved towards the guest bedroom.

She laid Veer on the bed. Without disturbing him she removed his shoes and changed his clothes into comfortable pyjamas. Veer didn't even stir even for a second. Naina assumed he must must have been really tired. She tucked him with light blanket and kissed his forehead. "I love you Veer!" She whispered and to her surprise Veer grinned cutely in his sleep.

Naina's heart melted and she kissed his chubby cheeks as well. She changed into her pyjamas and walked towards the hall where she found Viraj staring seriously at the laptop. Naina sat beside him causing Viraj to slam his laptop shut. Naina raised her brows at him. "Sorry work stuff! Can't really show you. I hope you understand." Naina sighed and nodded her head.

Truth to be told it wasn't a secretive thing, he was just looking at the map he didn't want Naina to know where he would be going moreover that would freak her out. He placed the laptop on the coffee table and turned towards her. The mission will start the day after tomorrow. He was aware of the repercussions that he had to face.

He thought now was the right time to broach this topic. He held both her hands in his and stared deeply into her warm brown eyes. " What is it?" Naina asked him with a hushed voice. Viraj sighed heavily, "Naina you do know that I have to leave the day after tomorrow Right?" Naina nodded her head. "Yeah of course. What about it?"

"Look Naina I just wanted to say that this is different from when I usually get deployed. I mean the jist is same but you need to understand that the same rules might apply. I can't call or text you often. It isn't my intention to ignore you." Naina scoffed at the statement.

"Viraj I know! I understand, we have already been over this. Why are you telling me all of this again?" Viraj has no idea as to how Naina is going to react to what he was about to say one thing is for sure, she's definitely going to be mad at him for saying this but he had to get it out of his system.

"Hello! I'm waiting for an answer!" She snapped her fingers in front of his face. He cleared his throat and smiled at her. "Naina umm oh god how do I say this! Please don't kill me for saying this but I really have to spit it out. In case something happens to me I want you to move on Naina. Find another man and be happy with Veer."

Naina gasped and her eyes brimmed with tears. She glared at Viraj and shoved his chest. "Shut up Viraj! What the fuck are you talking about???? You will come back safe and sound no matter what! Do you get me?" She fisted his collar and gritted her teeth.

Viraj had never spoken like this before. But something about this mission gave him an eerie feeling. He was a hundred percent sure something bad is going to happen. Not that it never happens but something was definitely off. Viraj sighed and wiped Naina's tears.
