Maldives

As soon, as the family descends on the lush green island, they gets mesmerized by it. Naina goes off, to explore the island, while Saina happily crawls in the verdant lush, greenery.

Sameer can't help but smile seeing his family back to normal, especially his daughter. They decides to spend, their week long stay, in the island itself, rather than in a hotel.

Naina runs towards him, and hugs him happily. 'This is so beautiful, Sameer ji!'

He cups her face. 'How are you feeling now Nainu?'

'Coming here, I am feeling lot better,' she replies.

'I am sorry,' he apologises.

'Sameer ji, how many times are you going to apologize?'

'Till you forgive me!'

'There is NOTHING to forgive Sameer ji! You, obviously; did not plan our encounter with pirates,' she kisses him.

He protests, but she doesn't listen. 'Can I call home?'

He nods and she proceeds to make the call.

'What happened Nainu?' Sameer asked her, seeing her coming.

'Sameer ji, you will never believe what Mom told me,' she replies.

'What’s it?'

'Arjun has decided to join his Dad in business and will go to London after di’s wedding. He wants to make a name for himself, so that in 2 yrs time, he can ask you for Shefali's hand in marriage, HIMSELF!' She said excitedly.

He shrugs his shoulders, 'OH, so he finally grew some guts!'

'You know, THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT. My poor brother has to suffer, because of YOU!'

'Your brother is not poor, and anyways; it’s time he earns his own living! If he succeeds, I will happily permit him to marry Chotti,' he said coldly.

'Not IF, Sameer ji; WHEN! When he succeeds, he WILL marry Shefali!'

'So, it’s that ALL the news Mom gave you?' He asked, changing the subject.

Her face, gets gloomy suddenly. 'No! Preeti is back home!'

'What?'

'Yeah, she got discharged 6 weeks ago and she’s at home! Mom says she is perfectly alright now and Dadi is even thinking about getting her and Pandit married!'

'That would be nice. PROVIDED SHE AGREES!'

'Why wouldn’t she agree? You saw when she came for our wedding, how she was clinging onto him? She loves him Sameer ji, I CAN TELL! Anyways, I am sure she realised by now; that, YOU’RE TAKEN!' She winks at him.

'And who am I, TAKEN by?' He asked back hugging her.

'I, your WIFE, mother of your two children's!'

'One child Nainu, because the other one; you’re keeping all to yourself!' He pouts.

She laughs.

******

The week long stay gets, very quickly- OVER! SamAina says goodbye to the verdant, lush greenery!

The place helped them, in relaxing. Perfect destination to end of their adventurous honeymoon.

In the next 3 days, they will be back in Mumbai. Home-sweet-home! And she is very excited as she wants to share her pregnancy news with her family, and tell them personally.

******

'Gooo,' Saina said pointing out to the ocean.

Sameer takes her in his arms, 'No baby, you can’t “goo” in the water. Remember, when Papa put baby’s toes in the pool, then baby didn’t liked the cold water?' He lovingly explains to his daughter. 'Even your Mumma and I can’t swim there, the water is too cold and deep. We will get drowned and we don’t want THAT; do we?'

******

Little does Sameer know, a tempest is brewing on the horizon; one that will force him and his family, TO SWIM FOR THEIR LIFE!'
