Na Bangaram (Pranushka)

Chapter 78

Miheeka's Pov:

"How long have you been feeling like this," Anushka's voice comes through the phone, as I switch it to speaker and get into my car.

"Only a few days but I just have a feeling," I tell her, pulling out of the driveway and carefully looking left and right.

"Is Krish being ok, like will it be too much trouble to have him for a little longer?" Anushka is on maternity leave right now as her due date is just a few months away and she needs to take the extra precaution. I've been leaving Krish with her during the day as she insists on watching them, saying it's good for him and Krithi cause they have someone to play with.

"It's fine you know he's no trouble. And watching him and Krithi playing is just so cute," I smile at her squealing and hear the speaker muffle a little before hearing loud babbling into the phone.

"Krishy is that you," I ask sweetly, looking at my phone for a second at the red light.

"Say hi to Mumma," I hear Anushka's voice again and I can practically see her holding him on his lap with grubby hands trying to reach out for the phone.

"Muh muh," He starts chanting, making me laugh and miss his chubby little cheeks.

"I miss you baby! I'm coming soon though," I promise him before Anushka quickly ends the call as the two of them starts to yell and occupy her attention again.

I turn the last left before I'm in the parking lot of the store and quickly get down, clutching my purse in my hand.

I get in and out of the store as fast as I can, not being able to wait for long.

I drive back home and throw my stuff on my bed before taking the white box into the bathroom with me. I feel like I'm being thrown into a time machine and I'm taken back to the last time I did this and I got the most life changing news of my life. 

After doing everything I place the test on the counter. I close my eyes and pray. I don't know what I'm praying for but I pray that it's going to be okay. I missed my period this month and have been feeling extremely nauseous way more than how much I was with Krish. 

As much as I want another little baby, me and Rana have just been slowly fixing our relationship and another baby would just complicate everything.

I open my eyes and they dart towards the test on the counter beside me, and I go silent. Even my slow breaths can't be heard.

"Positive," I whisper, lifting the test up, making sure what I'm reading is true. I blame the hormones for the tears that immediately spring into my eyes. My hard start to shake, the test in my hands so close to slipping if it wasn't for the grip I have on them. 

I lean against the counter for support, and look down at my stomach. I reach towards the box to do another test to be sure, and the wait seems a little less excruciating this time because I know what it's gonna say. There's no way it was a false positive, and I have so many symptoms to prove that.

The second test is positive too just as I predicted and all I can really get myself to do is clutch the tests tightly in my hands and cry.

Happy tears of course, because maybe this could just be the glue to make Rana and I back to normal.

Rana's Pov:

I get a text from Miheeka as soon as I get in my car to leave from my office. She tells me not to get Krish yet, but to come straight home. Though I have a ton of questions swirling through my head I just reply a quick ok and drive home to her.
