Trishalini POV

Everything was beautiful. It was like a fairytale. And I was the center of everyone's attention—the people, attendees, family, and especially him.

"Trisha," he called out, entering my room, and I sighed deeply, lifting my gaze from the food.

"I am sorry. The hearings stretched," he said, sitting beside me, and I smiled.

"How are you feeling?" it had become his favorite question as he would ask it ten times a day. And when I said ten times, I did not bragging.

"Good," I answered, and he inhaled, nodding and caressing his thighs a little before looking back at me.

"What did the physician say?" he asked, and I smiled, leaning on his shoulder and closing my eyes.

"Aap kyu nahi hote hai jab vo Jaanch karti hai? Fir aap pareshaan hote hai,"

"Why do you not stay with me when she sees me? You get worried later," I asked, and he immediately shifted a little closer and kissed my forehead.

Cupping my cheek, he looked at my face and shook his head with displeasure.

"You are constantly looking weak," he said, and I closed my eyes as if I had vomited for the third time already.

After one month of pregnancy, I began to feel the changes in my body. The vomiting, the hatred towards any smell, except the smell of iron, him, and pigeons.

"And it's only the third month," he added. I placed my head on his chest, and he gently caressed my arm.

"Hey, what happened?" he asked, kissing my forehead, and I shook my head.

Everything was way too perfect.

He was doing great as the King. The Princely States respected him, and the Kings considered his opinions when enacting the new law. Our family was happy. My father came to meet me once, and even Baapusa was doing better.

He began to walk comfortably again. He seemed better than during the rainy season, and his cough was better, so he was happy.

But, sometimes, I feel that we should have gotten more time than Abhinandan and Trisha. The responsibilities and pregnancy came way too early.

No matter how much we try to spend time together, after a while, we both have separate and look after the things we are responsible for.

However, Maasa has been helping me a lot these days.

"Do you miss Maasa and Daadisa?" he asked, gently caressing my cheek, and I nodded.

"Aww, my beautiful wife, they will be back soon," he said, and I pulled back to look into his eyes.

"When?" I asked, and he leaned in to kiss my forehead.

"Soon. I promise. In a month," he said, and I gulped, straightening up, and felt his fingers gently push the loose strand of my hair behind my ear.

"I am worried for you, Trisha," he muttered, and I smiled weakly and looked up at him.

"You do not have to," I said, and he lowered his gaze.

"But, I promise as soon as the new law gets passed, I will spend my whole time with you," he said, pouring the juice into the glasses.

Honestly, everything was perfect, but time was moving way too fast. My day would begin with his smell in my bed, as he would have left the bed already to work, feed the pigeons, and get ready for the court. I would also spend my time selecting the menu, managing the administration, and spending my time with Meenakshi and other attendees.
