"Uff!", Rishab lies down on the bed.
"Tired?", asks Khushi.
"Mat poocho. Dad has gone crazy and he has made me go mad."
Khushi laughs as she runs her hand over his head and then kisses his forehead.
"He is excited for Ansh's first birthday. He wants to organise a grand party for that.", Khushi says.

"Yes, he is excited to organise. Toh bhai karo na, why are you making me do everything? I have to see whether the decorators are doing everything the way he has asked. I have to call and inform the caterers to change the sweet dish. I have to call everyone and invite them and I have to see if the cake is as per order or not. Ek insaan kitna kaam karega. Thank God Sachin was there with me."
Khushi giggles.

"Hain hanso. You didn't have to do anything na.", he says, turning his face away.
Khushi lies down beside him and turns his face towards her, "Itna gussa? My bebu!"
She pressed her lips on his forehead, "This is for all the work you had to do."
She then kisses his nose,"This is for staying at home today."
She then kisses his cheeks,"This is for keeping your patience and not reacting."
"And what do I get for being a good husband and not allowing you to take any stress?", he asks with a mischievous smile.

Khushi presses her lips on his, "This."
"Bas itu sa? Wifey, your hubs needs more.", he says as he rolls over her, kissing her passionately.

Lying under the covers, Khushi says,"Can you believe one year has gone by?"
Rishab smiles, "Yes. I believe and I remember each and every moment of this one year."
"Acha?"
"Yes. I remember every moment from the day I met you till today. I remember the first day I saw you at the lounge area, staring at me. "
"Staring? I was not."
"Yes you were. And I remember the night of the party when you had arrived looking like an angel."

Khushi blushes as Rishab cups her face,"I remember us singing together at Alibaug's farmhouse. I remember you taking care of me, sleeping on my arm the very first time. I remember our first fight. I remember the night I proposed to you, our kiss. I remember our date getting spoiled thanks to Ritika. I remember the pain of losing you as you left to go to Kasauli. I remember every single phone call and text you sent me. I remember my proposal on the top of the hill. I remember everything."

Khushi kisses him,"Fine you remember everything before your proposal. What about after that?"
"Baapre kaise woh sab bhulun. The way we planned to stay together at night, I will always remember. Dadi ki dant, me climbing down the pipe, I can never forget it baby. Then all the incidents during our wedding, who can forget? Every day was a new episode.", he laughs.
"Life has been good after that, don't you think? One year of pure bliss. Book releases, our publication house getting awards, you getting featured in the Today magazine for being one of the most successful businessmen..hmm.."

"Yes.."
Khushi smiles and says,"Then Ansh came into our life. Do you remember the day I got the test?"
"Sweetheart, Rishab Khurana never forgets anything. I remember the night he was conceived."
"Chi.."
"What chi? We created him so why chi? It was our anniversary. And you got drunk."

Khushi makes a face,"I didn't. Your cousin Pritha brought orange juice and I took it. Mujhe kya malum tha usme alcohol hogi."
"I mean seriously you are a Gadhi. Have you not seen everyone drinking vodka in orange juice? I mean all the ladies who are not allowed to drink, take this. Sab Punjabi weddings or functions mein hota hai."
Khushi nods her head,"Hota hai, but Pritha is so young, I thought.."
"Young, we all have tried alcohol when we were half her age.", says Rishab.
"Very good. Award dun iss ke liye.", she stares at him with anger.

Rishab avoids looking at her, "no.. main toh bas.."
"I liked the drink so I had a few more of it.", she says, turning her face away.
"Yes, a few.. And then jo scene create ki..", he starts to laugh.
He sits up and starts mimicking her, "Ri..shab.. in.. insaano ke samne..mat gana.. Bas guitar baja.. teri Kh..ushi khushi ho jayegi.."
Khushi hits him as he starts to laugh.
"I had to take you back home somehow. But tum mein toh mata ayi hui thi. You didn't leave me. You literally pushed me to bed, ripped off my clothes and.. took advantage of my sober condition.", Rishab giggles saying that.
Khushi hits him again,"Chup. Chi gande."
"Acha? Tumne kiya toh kuch nahi, I am just reminding you and I am ganda. Right.."

Khushi gets up from the bed and wears her clothes.
"Angry?", Rishab asks.
"Fine, you were not leaving me. You were kissing me. I was also a little drunk, so I couldn't control myself. Happy. But jo bhi hua acha hi hua. We made our baby that night."
Khushi shakes her head, "You na.. "
"And the drama you made just one month later. "

"What drama?"Khushi comes and sits beside him.
"You were not feeling well and you called Arti and talked about it. Remember?", Rishab says.
Khushi replies,"Yes. I didn't know what had happened. So I talked with Arti di. And she told me that I might be pregnant. I was so scared. I mean, we were not prepared for this. We had not planned anything for this. I was really scared."

Rishab nods his head,"Actually, I too was a bit scared. It is true we had not discussed anything about the baby and suddenly you dropped this bomb. It was actually scary. I can understand."
"That night I really couldn't sleep."
"Sleep? I haven't slept properly since then.", Rishab whispers.
"What? Did you say anything?"
"Did I? No. No..", Rishab bites his tongue.

"Five kits and the same results. I had cried holding you. I didn't know why? ", Khushi says.
Rishab pulls her into his arms,"You were not prepared for this. It was obvious. I was shocked. But then I realised, this was the best gift we could have hoped for. How stupid were we behaving! I tried to make you understand the same. And we both laughed and then we cried together, only this time we were happy. Really happy."
Khushi kisses his chest, " Yes. We were two idiots. Instead of being happy we were trembling in fear. Thanks for understanding and making me understand the same."

"And then began the saga of tortures. One can write a book on it. How to torture your husband written by a pregnant wife. Ahh..."
Khushi pulls his hair and he releases himself and says, "Hain ganja bana do. Hamesha bal khinchti rehti ho. Uff."
"Why do you talk so much?"
"Biwi, clear this misconception of yours. When you are present, no one can talk."
"Says the one who is constantly blabbering.", she says.

"Jis par biti hai, wohi na bole ga.", he says and jumps out of the bed.
"Rishab shut up."
"Okay. But that's true. You have tortured me in this period of time. Raat ke ek do baaje, you have sent me out of the house to get pani puri, ice creams and what not. I have pressed your legs, your head. I have done so much. Accept it, wife."
Khushi giggles,"That's true. You have done a lot. Thank you bebu."
Rishab comes closer,"Aww.. baby.. Ahh..", she pinches him.

"Uff, suja diya haath. Chudail thi kya peechle janam mein.", he says, rubbing his arms.
Khushi smiles,"Na. Issi janam mein hun. Tumhari wali chudail."
"Don't tell me..The night you were in labour, I saw that. Chudail nahi chudail ki maa thi tum. The way you threw things at me and hit me. My God!"
"You will never know the pain of the labour. I will never get pregnant again. Never."
Rishab laughs,"That's what you were screaming all the way till hospital."

He comes closer, "I get it. I respect women to endure such pain and give birth to a life. Hat's off to you, wife."
Khushi smiles as he pulls her into his arms and kisses her head.
"Thank you for giving me Ansh. I love you baby."
"Love you too bebu.. acha tum so jao, Dad will wake up early and make you work again.", she giggles.
"True.. Good night baby.", he lies down and they hear Riyansh crying and calling Dada..

Rishab closes his eyes, but Khushi says,"Jao. Tonight was your duty.. Ansh is calling his Dada."
"I am sleeping.. tum jao na yaar.."
"Maar khani hai, Baal khichu?", she threatens.
Rishab gets up and sighs,"Chudail ki maa. Jaa raha hun."
Khushi giggles.

"Hey Ansh!", he picks his son.
"Aww.. sh..no crying.. bad dream.. hun? Dada is here bache.. sh.."
Khushi comes in with a bottle of milk and takes him to feed.

"One thing will always amaze me. In such one moment, we created a life."
Khushi puts her head on his chest as they stand looking at their Ansh..
