Nitya was in her room looking at the clock ticking 10 at night and Shivansh was not home yet. She was hungry but more than that she was worried for him as he never gets too late and it was the first time. She took out her phone and called him.

"Hello cherry pie" She heard a cheerful voice which was hiding tiredness behind it.

"Where are you? It's 10. I am hungry." She said cutely.

"What?" She heard almost a shout "Why didn't you eat yet?"

Nitya rolled her eyes at his concern "Well then you should have come home earlier if you were that worried."

"I am entering home." He said hastily.

Nitya heard him as she ran out of the room and in no more than 2 minutes she reached downstairs to see her husband shutting the door behind him.

"Where were you?" She asked back hugging him.

Shivansh chuckled as all the tiredness left his body feeling her touch. Turning back to take her in for a hug "It was just some work." He explained himself caressing her hair "But why are you hungry till now?"

Nitya looked up at him "So that when you come late again you remember that you have a wife at home who might be hungry." She pouted.

He quickly pecked her pout "Come on then I will heat food." He said wrapping his arm around her waist and leading her to the kitchen.

Nitya smiled at his gesture "No I will heat food for you. You just sit and wait."

"But"

"Shhh" Nitya glared at him "Sit there," She said sternly as he raised his hand in defense and sat on the chair after washing his hands.

Soon, Nitya brought two plates settling beside him and he attacked the food.

"I was so hungry." He said as he took a bite of chapatti and his eyes closed in satisfaction.

Nitya smiled looking at him and patted his head "Eat well then." She smiled taking a bite of food "Why were you late though? I asked bhaiya and he told me there was no such important meeting or anything for you to work till late."

Shivansh took another bite feeling happy after getting his stomach some food "It isn't urgent but there are some projects I need to complete before I can be given the responsibility of CEO of another company."

Nitya furrowed her brows "CEO?"

"Hmm. And one of those projects needed some final touch so I was looking after it only."

"But you didn't want to be a CEO."

"I was just afraid of responsibility." He smiled "And neither did I understand the importance of earning so much money because I already have everything I needed."

"Then why now?"

"I have a wife whom I want to spoil so much to the extent. And then someday I would have kids and they would also have their expenses. And I don't want them to kill their desires only because of their father's laziness."

Nitya was shocked hearing him "But what about the café?"

Shiv shrugged his shoulder "That is my passion cherry pie and I will look after it for sure. But my passion will not make me so much money for now."

"But I earn enough for both of us. What would we do by earning so much money?"

Shiv turned to her with a smile "Because it's not just us two in your life. We have our sunshine to take care of and I want to share your responsibilities and the more we earn, the better quality of life we would be able to give to people around us."
