Same night,
"Bas?". Anubhav asked rubbing his fingers in circular motions on her belly. She was having itching due to her slowly appearing stretch marks.
"Yaha upar bhi", she answered, pointing to the lower side of her abdomen. A tingling feeling took over her body, as his fingers felt like a blissful magic when they touched the edge of her undercloth.
Maternity hormones had made her love him all the way more just like the extra reasons she finds to be mad at him.
"Bas hogaya". Haseena breathed out. Her face flushed. He got a little confused at first but later understood. Anubhav pecked her hairs and pulled down his T-shirt, she was wearing.
Pulling himself back, he settled on bed covering them with a comforter.
"Aapko aaj waha nahi jaana chahiye tha, jaana"
Haseena sighed. "Back up team pura 15 minute late thi. Humme jo sahi laga humne woh kiya. Aapko aur Jen ko khatre me kaise chodte?"
"Aap samjhti kyu nahi? Itni ziddi kyu hai!"
"Humne apni belly ko protect karne woh pehna tha na"
"Jisse waha ke sabhi logo ko ye shat pratishat bharosa hogaya ki aap garbhwati hai"
"Toh kya kare hum aap hi bata dijye". She sat up. Tears dwelled in her eyes. "Aap samjhte hai, Ravindra sir bhi samjhte the. But ye Sikandar!!, pura Danny sir ka copy.
Pata hai na usse hum pregnant lekin itni si bhi khuch gadbad kare toh sab ke saamne zillat karte hai. Sirf naam ki desk job hai humare paas. Pehle din mudke ek jawab kya de diya, affat ban gaye hai humari. Male ego ko gawara nahi hua na...", she vented all in a go. Her breaths become heavy, she covered her face in her palms, crying out loud.
His arms immediately found their way around her. Comforting her. Whispering sweet things in her ears.
"Sorry Haseena"
"And your husband is proud of you"
"our baby too"
"Kaash hum us sikander ki...". He gritted his teeth. His jaws clenched, showing his immense anger on their misogynist senior.
"Aap apna promise nahi todenge na?". Haseena asked through hiccups to which he nodded in no. "Humme is waqt aapki zarurat hai. Crime Branch me kam se kam hum ghar toh aate hai time pe...woh apne political connection karke aapko kahi yaha waha transfer kardega toh humare liye nayi aafat ho jayegi"
"Jaante hai...isliye chup hai, aur apna vaada nibha rahe hai". He stroked her hairs. She closed her eyes, breathing deeply, stabilizing her breaths and anger.
Few moments passed in silence. All she did was, listening to his heart beats, which were little more than usual, may be due to her sudden outburst.
"Anu"
"Hmm"
"Hasna mat haa", she said making the cutest expression she could enact of. "Nahi hasenge baba. Boliye". Anubhav replied, putting back her flicks.
"Humme achanak se aam khane ka man ho raha hai...please". He couldn't help but leave out a soft chuckle on her request.
"I love you, jaana". Blowing a kiss near her ear, he got up. "Rukiye...ye dono bottles bhi leke jaaiye...aur bharke rakhiyega fridge me...aapne khali ki"
He turned to her and said, "aur khuch madam?"
"Naah"

After a late night Mango party, she was sleeping clutching his arm. While he was busy adoring her pregnancy glow. His mind traveled back to the day she told him, that they are expecting their first.
After a long tiring day, I returned back to our home. Haseena had left the IB office, few hours earlier.
"Haseena"
