37. You And Me

AS THE SUN rays fell on Aarav's face, he groaned trying to block them as he covered his face with the duvet. The sound of the shower would be heard, which meant Shreya was awake. He heard the door shut and the sound of her anklets as she walked around the room. After a while, the sound of her bangles and the soft sound of humming would be heard.

Aarav slowly peeked from the duvet and saw Shreya drying her hair. He couldn't help but feel mesmerised by her beauty. It didn't take a rocket scientist to know that Shreya was glowing more than usual all thanks to her pregnancy. Shreya looked at her reflection in the mirror. Her usual pale skin was glowing, her once pale cheeks radiated heat, her eyes...they were twinkling with an unknown emotion. They had a spark in them, making her look more beautiful.

The vibration of the phone pulled her out of her reverie. She glanced at the phone and smiled looking at the caller id. Sliding the green option, she answered the call.

"Munchkin!"

"Duffer!"

She couldn't help but grin at their supposedly nicknames.

"HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!"

Shreya chuckled hearing the couple's unison voice.

"Thank you!"

"Where is my bestfriend?"

Shreya turned around and Aarav immediately pulled the duvet over his face.

"He is still sleeping"

"That pig is still sleeping!!"

"Yes", Shreya said chuckling.

"Well wifey, understand... last night might have been full of passion so he might be tired, right munchkin?"

Shreya's cheeks heated up as she remembered last night.

"Jai! Don't tease her! But Shreya did you... you know finally..."

"God woman! I am right here! And trust me babe, the last thing I want to know is about my best friend's sexual experience"

"Oh shut up, Jai! Shreya.."

"Guys! Shut up! I am not telling anyone anything!", Shreya said as her cheeks heated up.

"Okay... but I want to tell you a good news"

"Good news!? Are you pregnant?"

"No... umm.. we adopted a child"

"Wow! That's amazing! How old is the baby?"

"She is three months old"

"It's a baby girl!??"

"Yes.. do you have any name in your mind?"

"How does Aayushi sound?"

"Aayushi Jai Sharma. It's perfect!"

"By the way, congratulations! I finally have a niece! But there is a good news for you guys too"

"Wait... are you...?"

"Yes! I am pregnant!", Shreya said biting her lip in anticipation as the line went silent.

After nearly two minutes, the line was filled with Oh my god! Oh shit! Am I dreaming? This has to be a joke! Oh my god! etc
