Where there's tea, there's hope ...

Next morning, when I woke up I found myself lying in his arms and all I'm just thinking about the last night. Last night, was not less than a DREAM that finally came true.

Today morning unlike every other morning, filled with loads of energy and hope too. As he was still asleep and all I wanted to keep staring at him but there's always the ONE in someone's life who ruins up the every moment and here it was none other than 'The Alarm' clock.

Meanwhile he too woke up, caught me staring at him but didn't said anything and soon then I left the bed to freshen up so that I could help in the breakfast. 

While I was leaving, I asked Naksh to get up and he asked for an excuse today, as he have some work to do so he wouldn't be able to have breakfast with us, also he added saying, "could you please send the breakfast up for me"? "Sure, anything else, Sir"? I bantered. Yes, "close the door once you leave and he smiled" .

As soon as I get in the kitchen, I started reckoning what all the food he love as it is always said that, 'Dil ka raasta peth se hokar jaata hai', so am I using it too, praying deep inside to worth out in his case, too. I don't know whether it gonna work out or not but I'm gonna try my best and after alot of reckon, I ultimately came up with the decision to make a 'masala chai' for him as he love tea and so do I, but then again I thought to chuck all these ideas and talk to him face-to-face. I want to say him something but I can't. The reasons are ... 

1. I'm too shy to talk on it. 

2. I'm hesitating too..... 

Naksh aka Apple-Pie, my husband cum bestfriend and I knew him very well. I can talk, share, laugh, crib or cry on almost any and every topic but this really a CHALLENGE for me to talk on it to him after all it's about US.

Minutes later, I heard my mother-in-law calling me and asked putting her hand on my shoulder, Arohi beta, "are you alright"? I answered, "yes... mummy I am". She again, "then why aren't you paying attention here instead lost in some other world, thinking what"? "And by the way where is Naksh and why he isn't down yet"? "Still sleeping"? Wait!! let me call him and she moved forward and just then I stopped her in the middle of going upstairs to call Apple-Pie and said, "actually the thing is, he has some work to finish off so he asked me to bring up his breakfast". Heyy bhagwan... she said little angrily, "this guy is so obsessed with his WORK that he has no time for us even, too and also he alone do the breakfast while we all here, together, enjoy the food".  She asked me, "to give her and his, both of them breakfast". I looked at her and remember the old days when my mother used to do the same for me and I handed her the breakfast as she told me, "let me take it, please". I said, "Mummy, you aren't allowed to say 'please', I'm your daughter, you can simply just order me" and we both exchanged a smile and she went up. 

I didn't even tried once  to say NO... mummy let me do it. You know why? It's because I never want to come in between a mother-son relation and Naksh is her 'sweetheart'. The more he loves his mother, the more and more she loves him back and these days Naksh busy schedule is making her 'miss' him alot, too. Just the way I was but last night he killed all the misunderstandings between us and started afresh and today it's time to repeat the same but with his 'darling', mother and this is why I let them spent some quality time together or I can say, "let them to relive those old days again".

(flashback)..... I remember when we were in Switzerland and he was pouring out his heart and asked me for one thing saying, "ofcourse now you too, is my family and I love my family a ton and most of all my MOTHER". "She's the love of my life, my darling, and I'm sorry but you come after her". I took his hands in mine and said, "don't be sorry, please and never be again as she'll always be first and promise me, you never going to replace her with anyone in life, be it me on the other side, still she should be your priority number ONE".

"Ohh.. Mango, I promise", he said holding tears in his eyes and added, "I'm glad you're mine and thank you so much". "So am I", I added with a smile. I continue saying, " I know the value of  a family especially a MOTHER after all, you took me away from her and right now, I'm missing my family and my mother, badly".

Awww... and he started laughing and said, "you don't even need a specific reason to cry, you can cry on almost anything, anytime, anywhere". "Such a crybaby you are", he said squeezing my cheeks tightly.

My plan was to add a note beneath his cup saying, "I want to talk to you, but  as of now Mum went up to have breakfast with him so I refused adding any note".

All the while during breakfast I was thinking now 'what to do' next? How to let him know, I want to talk to him and then Dad asked me, "where is Naksh and your Mom"? I plainly said, "they both are having breakfast together in the room". Ohhh... Dad said smilingly and further added saying, "at last mother-son found their time" and we all smiled back. Soon then Dad asked me, "to pass on his cellphone and then I got an idea".

I took my cellphone and after 3-4 attempts I finally sent a message, "I need to talk to you".

After we all get done with the  breakfast, Mum came down and asked me, "to go up, he's calling you". I don't know why but hearing he calling me up, I got nervous. I, putting up all my courage, went up inside the room and he, looking at me asked me to sit next to him.

Firstly, he thanked me for sending Mom up with the breakfast and secondly, he did for the 'masala-chai'.

The moment I heard he loved the both the things I did, my heart screamed out, yessss... it worth out. He, interrupted me in the middle of my thought asking, "what you wanna say, say it now". My heart started pumping blood as fast as I can feel it and then he held my hands in his, gave me strength to speak up and then I shyly started the conversation, "please don't mind but I really feel now it's the right time to talk about it". " What, Mango", he asked curiously. 

The thing is, "now can we think about adding a new member in our family"? "New member", he puzzled. Ohh god.. this man never understand riddles. What I mean is, "our baby" I shyly said and look down. *awkward silence* and then he burst out laughing and said, "you talking to your husband and feeling this shy". Gaaawwd... you are blushing, Mango. He asked me, "look into his eyes and I did and he said, I too wanted to talk on it but I thought you'll excuse saying, CAREER. "My career is important too, indeed but not more than my family and you are there for me always, and now that we both are mentally and financially prepare for it, so can we plan please, I said looking deep into his eyes. 

It's a YESSS!! I couldn't believe what my ears just heard and he added saying, "even Mum was talking about the same and I, too was in a dilemma to talk or to not, but you always solve my problem before it turn out to be the one". I thanked him and he just hugged me tightly screaming, I love you, girl and as I already mentioned in the beginning, today is not just another 'ordinary' day and it even proved out, too.
