The Billionaire's Bride

Chapter Twenty Eight : Epilogue ; SURPRISE!!!

Piyashi's Pov

"Are you ready to go?"Aryan asks and then starts walking towards the fridge.My eyes widen and I panic.The surprise cake is in the fridge.

"NO!"I  yell and block his way.His eyes widen in shock  and I smile sheepishly.

"Um...what do you want from the fridge,baby?"

"Juice.Why?"he says eyeing me in suspicion.

I gasp dramatically,"Juice!?Juice!?No,I have been noticing that you drink too much juice nowadays.Go,drink some water!", I demand  and he frowns,"But I want—"

I glare at him and point at the tap.He drinks water,looking at me.

"What are you up to?"he asks,narrowing his eyes.

"Nothing!"I say innocently.

He nods,"Then let me taste the cake that—"

"No!"I say and his eyebrows furrow.

"Why?"

I  go closer,batting my eyelashes at him.

"I want it to be a surprise,please...."I purr,my finger circling his chest.He gulps,"S-sure."He  goes away ,a bit dazed.
I laugh.He's going to be so shocked when he sees what's written on the cake.

After putting the cake in a box ,I start walking with it to the car.I don't trust Aryan not to look at it.I put it in the back seat and go back in to dress up.I wear a pink sari and wear all my jewelry.I straighten my hair and wear my bindi and vermilion.Aryan walks in and does a double take when he sees me.

He stares intensely and I grin, blowing him a kiss.He walks closer and starts kissing me hungrily.I kiss him back and then break away. I look in the mirror and pout,"Aryan,look what you did!You ruined my lipstick and now I look like a fish!"

He sees that his lips are also swollen and  has some of my lipstick and he smiles,"Mr and Mrs Fish."

I roll my eyes but smile,"Get the car ready.We are getting late.Don't forget to wipe your lips!"

After  getting ready and locking up,I sit in the car.I eye him as he  is sitting in the car.

I get in,"Did you see the cake?"

He looks at me,"No,should I?"

I shake my head,"It's fine.Let's go!"

"Slow down,Aryan.Naman is not going to run away!"I say teasingly and he rolls his eyes.He plays some music and we start singing together.

After getting there,Aryan walks out of the car and opens the door for me.I get the cake out of the car and we walk to the door together.

I knock on the door and we hear  the sound of heels.Preeti opens the door and hugs us,"Hey,Bhabhi....Bhai..."

As soon as I step inside ,I go to the kitchen to find Ma ji.I  greet Papa Ji and Naman who are  playing snakes and ladders on the dining room table.

I  put the cake down in the fridge and hug Ma Ji.

"What did you put in the fridge,Piya?"she asks and I grin.

"It's cake but that's for later."

She nods and we start chatting as I help her  tidy up a little.

Then suddenly as ma ji talks to me,we hear loud laughter coming from the dining room.Ma Ji and I look at each other and we laugh.

She looks at me and hugs me suddenly,"Thank you, Piya.I'm so grateful for you,dear!I haven't seen my family this happy.Everything was so quiet until you arrived in our lives."

I  smile,"I'm also thankful for you ,ma ji but I need to tell you something.That day when Aryan and I got married,I  knew that Di was planning to run away  and I planned to marry Aryan."I say nervously and she smiles.

"We know, beta."What!?She knows!?They know!?

"Huh?"

"Yes, I did Anya's henna and I  recognised your henna at the mandap.I told Preeti and your Papa Ji after the wedding."

I gasp,"Then why...why didn't you stop the marriage?"

"Why would I when I wanted you as my daughter in law!?"

I grin , hugging her.

********************

"....and then Aryan  pulled the whole curtain down!"she says and Aryan scowls,"I don't remember that...I remember being a well- behaved child."

"Don't worry,Aryan beta.You are still well - behaved compared to Piya."Ma says.

My eyes widen.I know this conversation.She's going to tell him about my childhood.

"She stole her cousin's doll."

I gasp,"Hey,that was my doll!"

"She took the paint brush and painted the beige couch red."

"Ma!"I glare playfully at her and she laughs.That couch was ugly anyway!

"She was so naughty.She used to fight with everyone,pull  girl's hair in school and—"

"BLAH BLAH BLAH!No one is listening!"

My husband leans forward,"I am listening.Continue—"

"Ma, don't continue...or you won't get cake!"I threaten and she  looks at Aryan,"Sorry,beta.Maybe next time."

He nods,"I understand."

I beam,"Now let's get the cake."Ma ji brings the cake from the kitchen and sets it down on the table.She opens the top of the box and I hold my breath.Then she lifts up the knife to cut the cake.

Didn't she see what's written there!?

"Ma ji,wait!"I say and she halts.
I look at the knife in her hands,"At least  read what's on the cake!"

She squints,"What is written here?"I stand up and  move towards her. I look at the cake and gasp,"My beautiful cake!"

The cake icing on the top is a little smudged  so now it's written ,'ant it wins!' instead of 'I'm pregnant with twins!"

I glare at Aryan and he grins sheepishly.I shake my head.

"What was it supposed to be,Piya?"mumma asks.

I breathe in and out ,"It's supposed to be
'I'm pregnant with twins!"I say and they cheer.Aryan's eyes widen in shock and he stands up to hug me when ma ji grabs me and hugs me tightly.

"Twins!"Papa Ji cheers.

"I'm going to be an aunt!"Preeti squeals and hi- fives Papa Ji.Everyone is smiling from ear to ear.

"Congratulations!Oh my, I'm going to be a grandmother!"

"Me too!"mumma says, hugging ma ji.Aryan hugs me,"Thank you,Piya.I love you.I can't believe .... we're going to have  babies!"he whispers into my ear, a little emotional.

"I love you too,Aryan!"I say.

As the  we celebrate with cake,the doorbell rings."Are you expecting any guests,ma ji?"

"No,did anyone order anything?"Ma ji asks and everyone says no.

Preeti gets up,"I'll go check who it is."

We continue talking when we hear footsteps.Everyone's eyes widen in shock as we see Anya Di with...wait—is that Rohan?How did she meet Rohan!? You can see that they are married because of the rings on their fingers and the vermilion on her head.My jaw drops as I notice the baby bump.

Oh my God,Di is pregnant!!!
