Few Years later

"Sreeja, ei.. Sreeja, bring the coffee di. How many times to ask you?" shouted Venkat.

"why should I bring? She is your favourite right? go and ask her to do all the work for you. I am not your maid." Came forceful reply from Sreeja who was in the kitchen.

"She will not do any work. What are you for then ?" Venkat entered to the kitchen.

"I am living the life of a maid in this house. Every single time, you are spending with her not with me. Even at night, you hug her and sleep but not me. You kiss her daily on cheeks at night,  I know you well.

While going out ,you take her along with you than me. You totally forgot that you married me first la. She came after me" Sreeja said sniffing while wiping her tears. 

"Remember I am the one who came in to your life first not her.She would always be second" Sreeja added.

"sssh... Oh god.. I am not able to handle these two girls. If I give more importance to you, she will get angry. Whatever is the case, why can't you adjust? Anyways you enjoyed all the time alone with me before her."

"don't you ever talk with me. whatever you said in the earlier stage that you love me is all fake. You totally forgot me after she came la. I will go to any other foreign country leaving you all. You enjoy your time well with her."

"Go wherever you want. But take these two along with you"

"Venkat... no I won't take any of them. Especially your daughter. She is my first enemy, snatching my husband away from me" 

"She is just a small kid di. why do you always compete with her. She likes you too a lot. Just that daughters are dad's little princess so they are more attached and clingy to their dad's.

Likewise for your son too. He is more attached to you than me. Always roaming behind you  calling  'ma, maaa. nu'"

"Don't say anything about my son ok."

"I will say because most of the time he is always making my daughter cry by snatching away her toys"

This is a common conversation cum fight between Venkat and Sreeja over their son and daughter. As Venkat expected, Sreeja gave birth to baby boy (of course naturally without  IVF) named Adhiran and then the next year a baby girl named Aadhya. For the second child, without any medications, Sreeja got pregnant just like normal girls.

What irked Sreeja was the elder Brother and Younger Sister combo, with which Venkat would always tease her. 

Days passed beautifully with Venkat and Sreeja's life revolving around their kids. He still remembered the time when Sreeja gave birth to baby boy. That was the best ever feeling he has ever experienced in his life. 

Sreeja has already told to everyone and Venkat, that it is only Venkat who has to reveal what child is born to her.He is the one whom she would meet first after the delivery. He is the one who has to shown their kid to her.

They had some facial expressions to mention if it is a boy and twirling the moustache is a signal for girl. Venkat was overloaded with joy at his peak on the news of his child birth. 

The only thing that mattered him the most was his child. His own child. Nothing else mattered him.

It was an unexplainable emotion for both Sreeja and Venkat when they stepped in to their home with their first child.

The day when they found out she was pregnant was ecstatic. It was a normal day , as usual her periods did not occur, Venkat and Sreeja did not do any test or consult doctor. They lived the normal life just like another day.
