Aditya's pov

I am sitting at Akshita's place where we were having dinner while my not-so-innocent brother is blabbering non-stop and entertaining us.  I steal a  glance of Akshita from corner of my eyes. She is looking very happy with a constant smile on her face. Wearing a pink suit with no makeup and her hairs tied in a loose bun few of her silky locks resting on her cheeks.

Dammit !! She is something.
She has messed up with my mind.

"Aunty the food is just amazing. Now I know why bhabhi is such a good cook cause she learnt from you" Ishan comments stuffing butter chicken and naan in his mouth. I shake my head at his antics.

"Damadji ! Apko khana pasand nhi aaya?" Mummy asks me.

(Didn't you like the food ?)

"Mummy khana bohot acha infact best hai" I give her an assuring smile.

(Food is great in fact it's best)

"Toh beta aur lijiye na" She puts more chicken and naan on my plate. I look at my plate in horror it is full so is my stomach but Mummy is hell bent on over feeding me. I roll my eyes on Akshita who is suppressing her laugh looking at my condition.

(Then you should take more)

I'll see you later Wife.

Throwing a glare at her which she didn't notice I focus back on my plate.

My in-laws are very nice no doubt. Mummy and Papa never made me feel any less. We hardly visit here but whenever I come here she starts feeding me all the delicacies which she prepares specially for me. I feel overwhelmed with her gesture as I am not to used such attention. But I can't help I can't even deny her. I am not a person who loves to socialise much but with them I have to be familiar for being a good son in law.

Any how I finish my dinner and we were sitting again talking about nothing in particular.

"I guess the cupcakes are ready I'll bring them" Akshita stands scurring to the kitchen. We get busy in our conversation and within a few minutes we hear a loud scream of Akshita which make my heart clench.

Did something happen to her ??

An unknown fear grips me. My legs having a mind on it's known rushes to the kitchen. Reaching in the kitchen to find Akshita holding her right hand and hissing while the oven left open. Assuming that she burn her hand while taking out the cupcakes.

My clumsy wife 💀.

Sighing in relief that she is not much hurt. My heart is beating rapidly.

I have an unknown feeling.
It happens everytime when something happens to her.
I never felt like this for anyone.

Shrugging my thoughts I decide to comfort her. Right now she is important I could decipher my feelings later.
Taking long strides towards her, I drag her to sink keeping her hands under the running water of tap.

"How did it happen beta ?" Mummy asks in concern. 

"I--I actually forgot to wear oven gloves while taking out the pancakes" She mumbles in low voice with her head hung down.
