Mishti :)

I entered the Agarwal mansion with my three month old baby bump. Maa was in the kitchen and papa was reading a novel while sitting in the drawing room.. "Hellooooo! " I screamed excitedly, Papa got startled and came to hug me.. "Omg! What a pleasant surprise, Mahi come here... " He called my mumma, and my mum came running to me.. Her eyes travelled from my head to toe before she hugged me..

"Where's everyone? "

"Oh, our cupcake is here! " I heard Mivaan bhai's scream from behind, I turned back.. Both Sharanya and bhai have just returned from the office, I hugged both of them.. "You must have come here because you had a fight with bhai, right? " Sharanya grinned mischievously, I licked my lips and circled my arm around my papa.. "No I was missing my papa, " I said, three of them gave me a suspicious side look..

"Huh? Can't I come to my house, " I mumbled, "Leave these bundles of people, tell me what will you take for dinner? I will make it for you! " Papa initiated, "I have been tired of eating chapati everyday.. Make butter naan for me and umm chhole, and also you can add any dish of mushrooms, don't make it much spicy.. Also add kheer, buy a big cup of ice cream as well.. I haven't tasted indian sweets for so many days, if possible make kala jamoon.. That's my favorite! " I already got saliva in my mouth while explaining all this to him..

He stared at me without blinking his eyes, I looked at everyone, "Should I add any more thing? " I asked, all of them shook their heads negatively. I smiled, "Good.. I hope you all don't disappoint me and my baby.. Till then I am taking some rest.. Bye bye! " I waved my hands at them and went upstairs to my room.. They have four hours , they can make dinner easily with this time span..

I freshened up and wore a loose frock that's reaching till my knee. My baby bump has popped out a little, I sat in front of the television and connected it to my phone device.. I was rewatching F. R. I. E. N. D. S, so I continued from where I left it.. "Where is mishti? " I heard Abir's voice, my eyes widened.. I decreased the volume and tried to hear what he was saying.. I was too lazy to get up and hear him..

"She literally skipped lunch and ate pizza. Is it even healthy? And then lied to me as well.. It's her driver who informed me.. Where's she? " He asked everyone, his tone was filled with a little anger.. Tears gathered in my eyes, I increased the volume and stared at the television until he stepped into my room.. I wiped my tears before he could see it.. "Don't do drama, why did you skip your lunch? " He asked me in a soft tone, and sat on his knees in front of me..

I looked at the other side, "Why were you shouting at me? " I questioned, his eyes widened, he started looking towards his left & right.. "Me? You talking to me? When did I shout? " He whispered in shock, "Downstairs! I heard it, " I complained, he buried his face on my lap and then stared at me.. His eyes scrutinized, "Are you trying to blackmail me? " He sighed, I shrugged off..

"I just want you to eat healthy.. I make these foods for you at home right? You should stay a little careful.. If you wanted to have pizza, you could tell me.. I would have made it for you.. Or you could have it in the evening.. At lunch time you should eat something good, not all these! " He advised, "One time I took pizza and you are scolding me so much! "

He sighed and cupped my cheek.. "Aree baba, when did I scold you? I am saying so politely. I just don't want you to have a stomach ache like last time.. And yes, it's not one time.. In my absence you are eating a lot of unhealthy snacks, don't lie ! " He stated, so he has an eye on me..

"It's not like I want to eat unhealthy! You won't understand my pain.. I see food and the appetite dies in my stomach.. I am tired of eating the same old dal chawal chapati bread milk and God knows what! " I said in frustration, tears rolling down my eyes.. "You like dal chawal , so I make it for you-" he whispered, I cut him off in the middle, "So I will eat everyday? " I cried, he wiped my tears and hugged me.. I cried more because I was hating how emotional I was feeling and how badly I treated Abir while he was being totally calm to me..
