Miheeka's Pov:
"Thank you," Anushka says to me as we set down the big bag of clothes she wants to donate. It's a Saturday and both our husbands went out to have a boys day, so I came over to help Anushka clean around the house. My parents insisted on watching Krish as they love the one-on-one time spent with their grandson. She's been trying to declutter around the house, especially now that they will need more space with the baby coming.
"So did you decide if you'll find out the gender now or," I start off while twisting my hair into a bun on top of my head.
"We changed our minds because we couldn't wait that long," She finally says and the biggest smile grows on her lips, following the blush starting to settle on her cheeks.
"Really," I squeal excitedly and clap my hands together while squeezing her in a hug.
"When," I ask her curiously while holding her shoulders. She just gives me a shrug and a questioning raise of her eyebrows before walking into the kitchen. I follow behind her and take out the box of ice cream from the freezer and watch as she scoops two bowls.
"Cravings," She explains while lifting her bowls up with an odd mixture of ice and other foods. I laugh and give her a knowing nod while licking off a little bit of the ice cream from my spoon.
"It's been a while since we've all gotten together," Anushka says to me as she carefully sits on the chair beside me.
"Yeah, it really has been. I mean everyone has just gotten busy you know," She nods at my comment.
"I'm a little nervous though," Anushka admits out loud before we look up towards the door when we hear a chime.
"Nervous about what," Prabhas calls back to her as he and Rana enter through the door and walk into the kitchen with us. They set their stuff on the island and both go to grab water. Rana pecks my cheek with a soft kiss before sitting down next to me.
"Nothing," Anushka reassures Prabhas when he raises an eyebrow, looking between the two of us. I raise my hands up in surrender, not wanting to get between them, even for something this small. I share a look with Rana, both of us trying to hold back our laughter at the two of them; Prabhas's desperateness to know and Anushka's stubbornness.
"We're going to go home, this is going to go on for a while," Rana says to the two of them as we grab our things.
"Ok, we'll see you in a few hours then," Anushka calls back with a hug and a goodbye before walking us out of their apartment.
Anushka's Pov:
"What are you nervous about why won't you tell me," Prabhas mumbles against my shoulder as I stand above the sink washing my hands. I turn my head just slightly to glare at him before drying my hands off and moving to grab my phone off the island.
"It's not even a big deal we were just talking," I say, brushing it off. I really don't want to have a discussion about my feelings right now, especially because once I start talking I won't stop because everything I've been holding in will come out. I ignore the annoyed sigh from behind me and walk into our bedroom to finish cleaning and to be left alone. I walk into the bathroom and open the drawers below my sink to start cleaning there. I carefully sit down and take out boxes of miscellaneous items and pile them up beside me.
"Oh my," I whisper to myself and my free hand reaches for my stomach while the other holds the box. It's the box with the tests I took, all six positive pregnancy tests which I took a few months ago. Actually, a little more than a few months ago, but it feels like it was just yesterday when Prabhas and I found out I was pregnant for the first time. Tears collect in my eyes, and they quickly fall down onto my cheeks. I open the box and take a few tests out and clutch them tightly in my hands. I bring them to my face and my tears wet them and my sobs echo through the bathroom.
