As the sun rays fell on Mahira's face her eyes blinked open, on her left was the sun peeping from a slight stretch in the curtains, and on her right was a teddy equivalent human being who had his hands wrapped around her waist. She turned towards him with a smile as she stared at his sleeping figure, he looked cute all the time, but he looked so peaceful when sleeping, he has recently been very busy and training hard for IPL which is about to start in a week, he has done amazing in test cricket recently and Mahira was very proud of him. The past few months have been nothing but a fairytale, they had to postpone their honeymoon because of Rishab's hectic schedule but neither of them were worried because of it, they knew each other's priorities well and it didn't even matter much because at the end of the day they knew they have to come back home to each other. Due to Mahira's work commitments Rishab, his mother, and Sakshi Di were staying at Mahira's bandra residence, and even Rishab had started going to practice for DC. (Let's assume bio bubble doesn't exists okay?)
She wanted to get up as soon as possible as it was an awaited day for both of them, but as she tried to get up Rishab's grip on her tightened and she raised an eyebrow at him who still had his eyes closed but a smirk on his face.
"I am confused between I want to slap the shit out of you and I want to kiss you.", Mahira said with a tired smile, her sarcasm often surpassed Rishab's.
He opened his eyes and kissed her cheek. "Remitting your confusion.", He said with a wide grin and she too gave him a cheeky fake smile, before turning back to poker face.
"Let me get up Mr. Rishab Pant.", She said trying to remove his arms from on top of her stomach.
"Not now Mrs. Rishab Pant.", Rishab said with a mischievous smile. Mahira gave him a look, but she very well knew how to get her work done.
"Okay fine, let's stay in bed all day and watch Netflix, zyada se zyada kya hi hoga, BCCI will fire me, aur Ro bhai naraz ho jayenge hum dono se kyuki humne unki party miss kar di. Aur kya?", She turned to Rishab with extreme seriousness, Rishab knew he can't win against her.
"Okay fine! But give me a kiss.", He said with puppy eyes which Mahira reciprocated and supported herself on her elbow.
"I have started charging for them from today onwards.", She said, more like whispered.
"How much?", He asked, reciprocating her tone, she just squeezed his cheeks, kissed his forehead and ran away after pushing him back in the bed.
"Mahira yaar!", Rishab whined with a huge smile as she went inside the bathroom and locked herself.
After taking a long cold shower, Mahira changed into a white suit and walked out of her room where Rishab's mom greeted her with a kiss on her cheek.
"Good morning mahira!", Sakshi di who was flipping pancakes greeted her. She often woke up early and expiremnted with the breakfast, making everyone eat her unique dishes which were mostly good but sometimes.........
"What's special today di?", Mahira asked her.
"Blueberry pancakes.", She answered turning to look at her with a bright smile.
"Mahira beta, wear this.", Rishab's mom who just went into her room came out with a pair of hoop earrings. "Tumhare dress ke sath match hoga.", She said as she lovingly placed her hand on Mahira's chin before sliding off the earrings in her ears.
"Sometimes I wonder, who is your child actually mom?", Rishab said as he too joined them on the dining table.
"Dekho kaise jealous ho raha hai.", Sakshi di left no second to taunt him.
"All three of you are my kids.", Rishab's mom said as she looked at the three of them lovingly and Mahira helped Sakshi in garnishing the pancakes.
"Lunch karne aaogi tum?", Rishab's mom asked Mahira.
