Shubha's Pov:

I was so happy that he liked my Halwa. So happy that I couldn't vanish smile from my lips.

After breakfast jiji and Aarush went to their house but jiji promised me that she would visit me regularly.

Abhibhai also took leave to join my Husband. But Nikunjbhai was silent during breakfast. He didn't talk much. Not even made eye contact with me. I had a little brother and I thought I would get another little brother in this house as Nikunjbhai. it seemed like he didn't like me. But might be...I  was over thinking. He also left by saying he had some work so going to his friend's house.

I went in our room. I saw that my khadus didn't arranged the bed after awaking so I made the bed. Then went in closet to unpack everything. When I came back in room I saw the watch and it was time to prepare lunch. So I hurried towards kitchen.

I saw that Mammiji was already present.

" I am sorry Mammiji I am late ."

" it's okay beta you are not late. I just came. But why you are here ? Go and take some rest. "

" No Mammiji I am tired. I want to help. Please Mammiji .I will be so happy if you let me help you." I said with puppy dog eyes which always worked on Ma.

" Ok Ok you won. We will make Paneer masala, mix vegetables, chapati, jira rice and dal fry Ok. " Mammiji told me. And I nodded with a smile.

We engrossed ourselves in making lunch. Mammiji was so friendly with me. Like my Ma. She told me about her stories as newly wedded girl. Her fears and everything. It was fun making lunch with my Mammiji.

"We finished Shubha !! We done it so early. where time gone can't understand. It seemed like we just started. " she told while preparing the tiffin for Shah males at office.

She was about to call someone but stopped and looked towards me.

"Shubha... you will go to office from now on with Lunch. " She informed with determined voice. Me..?

" Why me Mammiji. ??

"Shubha I know the relation between you and Mahatmya. I am his mother . I know him more than him. I know he changed but his heart is still the same. I know beta it will take time to win him and his heart. And I also know it will not take much time. Cause you are the right one for him. Try to win his heart and trust Shubha. You are so pure and real that he will accept you beta. Never loose your hope. God will help you. He is yours now and you have to make him yours. "

I was speechless. How Mammiji knew all about this ? But whatever Mammiji said was true. I had to make him mine. He was my husband. I would do anything to win his trust and love. I nodded with teary eyes.

"Now come on my solider we have to win our enemy by any little chance we get right ?" Mammiji said while giving me the tiffin like a weapon.

I saluted like a soldier and took the tiffin. we both laughed at our childish act.

I reached the office and was walking towards receptionist. She saw approaching me and asked "How may I help you ma'm ?"

"Hmm.....Mr. Mahatmya Shah ?"
I was nervous. So I could just speak my Husband's name.

"Well ma'm you have any appointment with him ?"

"No , but he knows me. " I couldn't tell her that I was his wife.

"Ok ma'm sir is in meeting. I will ask his permission then I can let you meet him. Till then please take a sit in waiting area and make your self comfortable. " The receptionist said with fake smile.
