"Mithu, I am home sweetheart" Pranav announced his arrival to the entire house.

Servants in the living room vacated from there, knowing how romantic their boss can act sometimes. Now that Anu is pregnant, he has become over protective making all of them blush with his sweet antics towards his wife.

"tch tch Pranav how many time I have said you, do all these mushy stuffs inside our bedroom and not in living room in front of our helpers" chided Anu seeing him take her in a hug once she was in his vicinity

"Who are you girlie, to say me not to romance my wife in my living room uh?" he asked her in a bossing tone

"Hmmhmm I am that so called wife of yours. Now go and freshen up" She twisted her mouth and pushed him towards their room

It was after their dinner, inside their room

"Pranav.." she sat beside him

"Hmmm" he hmmed, drowned in his case reports

"Pranavvvv.." this time Anu drawled the v to get the response from him

"Yea Baby" he pushed his work away, took her hands in his and urged her to go ahead

Noticing his undivided attention Anu decided to speak about what was troubling her from the time Chandini left from NEST.

"Didn't you say we can't decide a person character in single day? Even you met Chandini today. Will not she be apt for our Bachu? If not for Bachu , we can hook her up with Adi too" hope twinkled in her eyes

"Mithu it is not we who have to decide dear, our Aju or Adi should be okay to meet this girl and even Chandini should be okay. Why are you getting on the shoes of a cupid now?"

"It is because, I like that girl Pranav. She is ..she is something I cannot describe. She was vulnerable, the first day when I met her. I felt a strong connect towards her. It can be because she is an Orphan just like me. May be because I felt something was wrong with her, may be because I can see her as myself-the one who needed reassurance and abundant love 3 years back. I can give her that, we can give her that, and our family can give her that.I want her to be part of our family." Anu finished looking up into his eyes.

"Mithu, since you have guessed yourself let me share something. As a psychiatrist, I can see she is under depression . I can also say, she is under therapy because she had a control on herself. Raw helplessness coated her face when you introduced me to her, like she is not okay or comfortable with strangers, she felt content on seeing me care towards you. She adores you too much. The 10 minutes I was with her made me to draw a conclusion only till this." Pranav ended with a sigh.

"What can we do Pranav? Shall I ask her about this? May be you can treat her. " helplessness dripped in Anu's words

"Nah Mithu, maybe I could have been wrong, you could have been wrong. There can be something bothering her today, so she would have been distant or upset. If there may be something, we should wait until she discloses herself " Pranav consoled his pregnant wife who was a child herself

"Didn't you sleep yet? Now its 8.00 here which means 1:30 in Sydney. What are you doing till now wide awake?" Kavya queried once she lifted the call.

"Oh meri maa, I was waiting for Pradeep to get into his room and sleep so I can talk with you" Vrinda answered with a chuckle thinking of how her Kavya haven't changed yet. Always caring and concerned about her.
