“Hi, love. What’s up?” Achi’s voice was soft and comforting.

But there was no reply on the other end.
Achi furrowed his brow, “Hello, Teerak, what’s up?” he repeated.

Karan remained silent.

“Karan, am I not coming through clearly?”

“I don’t know.”Karan replied in a muffled voice, barely audible .

A small smile spread across Achi's face as he realized his husband's sulking tone. “Wait..waitt...are you by any chance sulking?”

It had been three days since he left for his business trip, and poor network coverage had made it difficult for them to talk. Now, hearing Karan’s cute, sulking tone made him smile despite the circumstances. “Alright, I’ll call you back in a minute,” said Achi.

Karan stayed silent, but his lips couldn’t help but twitch into a reluctant smile. And with that, Achi ended the call, only to ring Karan back a moment later—this time with a video call.

When Karan answered, he was greeted with the sight of Achi in a blue suit that looked almost too good to be real. His slightly tousled hair and warm smile made him look every bit like a prince straight out of a fairytale.

Karan’s jaw dropped slightly, his eyes lingering on Achi. “huh..Achi...YOU.. you look so handsome,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper.

Achi’s eyes sparkled with amusement. “Weren’t you sulking a moment ago?”

Karan blinked, taken aback. “Huh... NO—who said that?”

Achi’s smile grew as he watched his husband's reaction. “Oh really? Because it sounded a lot like you were sulking just now.”

Karan’s cheeks flushed with a mix of embarrassment and affection. “Well, maybe a little. And that’s because, it’s hard to be away from you.” he admitted softly.

Achi rolled his eyes but couldn’t suppress a chuckle. “You know I miss you too, right?”

Karan, still captivated by Achi’s appearance, pouted playfully. “YES, butt now I’m actually more jealous than anything.”

Achi raised an eyebrow. “Jealous? Of what exactly?”

“Well, I’m very jealous that everyone around you might fall in love with you while I’m not there. I can’t have people swooning over my husband while I’m stuck here.”

Aci’s laughter filled the line. “Seriously? And what made you think everyone’s going to fall for me?”

Karan nodded dramatically. “Absolutely. Just look at yourself. You’re looking so good, it’s almost unfair. I mean, who could resist?”

Achi shook his head, still chuckling. “Oh, come on. You’re being melodramatic”

Karan put on an exaggerated frown. “Well, I can’t help it. You look so fine & Since you’re causing all this jealousy with your charm, you need to make an announcement.”

Achi raised an eyebrow, amused. “An announcement?”

Karan nodded “Yes! Tell everyone at your meetings that you’re already married and off the market. You know, to keep me from dealing with a lot of admirers later.”

Achi’s laughter spilled over. “Oh really? So you want me to go around telling everyone I’m happily married to avoid causing a scene?”

Karan gave a dramatic nod. “Exactly. I don’t want others to get the wrong idea about you being single.”

Achi’s grin widened. “Alright, alright. I’ll make sure to let everyone know that I’m happily and exclusively yours---hap”  His sentence was cut off when someone knocked on his door.

Achi looked back at Karan with an apologetic smile.“ I’ll talk to you later, okay?”

Karan nodded, but before the call ended, he leaned closer to the screen, he blew a kiss and whispered, “Don’t forget what I said. Let everyone know you’re taken, alright?”

Achi chuckled as he returned the kiss through the screen. “I won’t forget. I promise.”

“Good,” Karan said with a wink. “See you soon. Stay safe and don’t charm everyone too much.”

Achi chuckled. “I’ll do my best. I love you Karan.”

“I love you too Achi ,” Karan replied. As the call ended, Karan stared at the screen for a moment longer before reluctantly setting his phone down. Watching achi's smile through the screen has made the wait for Achi's return just a bit more bearable.
