CHAPTER 175 NURTURING US

Sidharth looked at Shehnaaz and she blinked her eyes.. He came a little close to Sidharth and put his hands in the pocket.. Riya held his arm and that was it..
“Thank you..” said Sidharth to the cameramen and walked where Shehnaaz was.. He held her by her waist, pulling her as close as possible when they heard, “Sidd!”
Kaushal came along.. He bid goodbye to the cameramen and made sure there was no media around..
Sidharth turned around along with Shehnaaz, they saw Riya staring at Sidharth.. “Take over baby… Kaushal has cleared the media..” said Sidharth, giving her the whole situation to manage as she wishes to..
“Yes?” said Shehnaaz… “Sid ko bulaya..”
“Mrs. Sidharth here.. Tell me..” came savage Shehnaaz.. “Aap kyu hamare beech aa rahi ho? Ho gaya SidNaaz.. Bas hua ab.. Hum trend kar rahe hai ab..” said Riya in her half drunken voice..
Sidharth’s blood boiled but Shehnaaz looked at him and pressed her lips on his cheeks, “Baby, relax karo.. Aise logo se aap na lago.. Mai baat kar rahi hu..” said Shehnaaz..
“Arey, ye fake izzat karna band karo.. Aise baat karti ho Sid se, tu jaa tu aa ab mere samne aap kar rahi ho..” scoffed Riya..
“Waise, tumhari akkal kam hai ye mujhe pata tha.. Itni kam hai ye mai nai janti thi.. Ek baat kaan khol ke sun lo.. SidNaaz sirf hashtag nai hai.. Tum dono ka hashtag bana kyu ke ye wed series me kaam kiye.. Hamara hashtag bana kyu ke hum ikhatte the, kal bhi rahenge, marte dum tak rahenge… Mai nai aayi beech me… Biwi hu mai uski.. Uske naam ka sindoor meri maang me hai aur uske naam ka Mangalsutra mere gale me hamesha rehta hai… Ye daaru peeke chadh gayi hai… Kaam ho gaya, ab tum apne raste.. Mai aur Sidharth apne ghar.. Don’t you dare try to contact my husband again.. Also, stop saying things which are not true in your interviews… Mai kya haal karungi na wo soch bhi nai sakti.. Know your limits before I rip you off..” said Shehnaaz and Sidharth pulled her closer..
He kissed her forehead in front of Riya… “I hope things are clear in your head now…” said Sidharth and walked towards the car with Shehnaaz in his arms…
“I love you, meri sherni..” said Sidharth a little too loud for Riya to hear as well.. “Always Bubbu..” said Shehnaaz and they climbed into the car and Shehnaaz was still fuming with anger..
“Sali samjhti kya hai… SidNaaz us gadhi ko sirf hashtag lagta hai.. Pata nai in logo ko sacha pyaar kaise samjh nai aata.. Har co actor ko tujhse aise link karte hai jaise tu bhooka hai aurto ka.. gadhe hai sab… Mai beech me, usko do thappad lagati agar itne log nai hote toh..” said Shehnaaz and Sidharth laughed…
“Tu has mat warna tujhe bhi chittar pad jaenge..” said Shehnaaz and he asked Adith to get a milkshake for her…
He stopped the car at a place and got down to buy it while Sidharth scooped her in his arms., “Mera pyara bacha..” cooed Sidharth.. “Shant ho ja ab.. Tune line cross nai ki.. ache se classy way me jawab di.. I am proud of you.. Ab chor de wo matter.. Ab is series se related mera aaj last day tha and I am keen to focus on the paperwork of being a producer.. So, I will be with you… Please calm down and kiss me..” said Sidharth and she came forward, held his face in her little hands and kissed him, roughly..
Adith came in and she left his lips.. Sidharth wanted to laugh but he dared not to.. He grabbed the milkshake from Adith’s hands and got the straw in front of her lips..
She looked at him like a baby with a pout… He read her facial expressions, “Mai lu first sip?” asked Sidharth and she nodded like a baby… He took a sip and passed it to her.. “Tu ek second me khatarnak sherni ban jati hai aur dusre minute cute si baby ban jati hai.. You’re the best baby..” cooed Sidharth, making her heart swell with love and her mood shifted from being angry to being his sweet little baby..
Adith started driving again and she sipped her milkshake… They grabbed Biryani and some starter on the way and went to Kaira’s place as promised..
“Maa, Kabir Naira ke ghar lunch leke jaa rahe hai hum dono.. Aap bhi aao na..” said Shehnaaz..
“Bache, mai lunch kar chuki hu.. Tum log chale jao..” said Mom.. “Okay maa..” said Shehnaaz and told the same to Sidharth..
They went to Kaira’s residence and they saw the same kind of name plate like SidNaaz’s.. It said, “Kaira’s Residence”
Shehnaaz looked at Sidharth was already looking at her with a smile, he felt the same.. “Remember when we got engaged and we put this outside our house..” said Sidharth, wrapping an arm around Shehnaaz’s waist.. Her eyes welled up.. He kept the food on the bench outside the main door of the house and cupped her face, “Mera bacha, don’t cry.. See, where we have reached.. from being unknowns, to being friends, to have fallen in love, to getting engaged and now happily married.. Also, very soon, we will be parents.. I love you Sweetheart..” said Sidharth and pressed his lips on her forehead..
“Tu sachi bho pyara hai Pucchuu..” cooed Shehnaaz and said, “I love youuu Sidhaarttthh..”
He smiled and then rang the bell.. Naira opened the door and welcomed SidNaaz home… “Welcome home Mami Mamu..” said Naira and Kabir came out of the bedroom..
“Hey Mamu!” cooed a sleepy head Kabir.. He didn’t look so well.. “Kya hua Young Man.. You look tired and unwell..” said Sidharth..
“Mamu, he is down with fever and now he can’t go to drop his parents to the airport.. I told him I’ll go, mai bhi ab family ka hissa hu.. He agreed but muh bana hai kyu ke ye jaa nai sakta..” said Naira, taking food from Shehnaaz’s hand and the ladies took the food out on serving plates and set the table up…
The four ate together and Kabir was being the grumpy baby.. Sidharth could see his own sick self in Kabir at that moment.. “Tu pura mere jaisa hai Kabir..” said Sidharth, chuckling..
“Yes Mamu, now I know what Mami deals with all the time..” said Naira running behind Kabir to take medicines for the fever..
He finally agreed to take and SidNaaz went back to their house.. They had to go to drop Kabir’s parents to the airport.. “Sidharth, tujhe aur Jiju ko Vardhaman ji chabi dene wale hai na.. Kabir bimar hai, mai ruk jati hu.. Airport tu chala jaa chorne..” said Shehnaaz and Sidharth wrapped his arms around her, snuggling into her neck and pressed his lips on her shoulder..
“Sidhaaarthh..” said Shehnaaz, closing her eyes and raising her neck… He pulled out of her neck and wrapped his arms around her waist, “Mai bhi ruk jata hu agar Kabir ko kuch man to man help lagegi toh..” said Sidharth..
Shehnaaz rolled her eyes, “Sidharth, bukhar hua hai usko.. Chup kar ke jaa.. Badi responsibility hai ghar ki chaabi ka.. Raat me aise bhi traffic kam hota hai.. Aa jaega tu jaldi.. Mai packing bhi chalu karne wali hu..” said Shehnaaz..
“Tu mere sath rehna hi nahi chahti.. Hadh hai..” whined Sidharth.. She cupped his face in her hands, “Please, samjh na Sidharth.. Family bhi important hai.. Please Bubbu..” said Shehnaaz and he had to agree..
“Abhi toh mere sath chal kamre me.. Letna hai teko pakad ke..” said Sidharth, literally dragging her in his arms, to the bedroom..
She got out shorts for him and he quickly changed his clothes and she did too.. He covered her properly with a quilt as she rested on his bare chest.. His arms were hugging her from behind and he grabbed his phone from the other..
Sidharth clicked a selfie and posted it on his social media account, “With my better half.. Don’t forget to watch Pyaar Itna Bhi Asaan Nahi with your loved one..” said the caption..
“Tu ye post kar diya..” said Shehnaaz, checking if something was visible..
“Don’t worry, I’ve covered you properly.. Everything is hidden baby, only your face and a little bit of your neck is visible.. Relax..” said Sidharth and then she snuggled into him again..
“Log bolenge tu show off kar raha hai..” said Shehnaaz with a frown..
“Relax my love.. I know what I’m doing.. Mai thak chuka hu ab.. Kuch bhi post karu toh problem hoti hai kuch naa karu toh problem hoti hai.. I have decided jo man me aaega wo post kar dunga… Baaki bhad me jaye..” said Sidharth and she kissed his hands..
“Acha, shant ho jaa ab..” said Shehnaaz and he softly massaged her scalp, “Haye, Bubbu.. Tere hath me jaadu hai..” saying so, she drifted off within seconds..
Eating rice makes you feel sleepy and the way Sidharth was massaging her scalp made her sleep..
He took his phone and scrolled down, replied to some tweets and the internet went crazy.. He chuckled seeing the response and stopped replying..
He looked at her sleeping baby and pressed his lips on her forehead, “Kaise rahunga tere bina ek mahina? Tu janti bhi nai hai tujhe strong banane ke liye mai tere samne strong ban raha hu.. I am scared, jaise jaise din pass aa raha hai, I am scared baby.. I know, it is important for you to go.. I don’t want to be the reason for you not doing a project.. Go soon and come back sooner, Mera Bachaa…” Said Sidharth, his tears fell on her! TBC
