"Your Abhi bhabi," Abir answered laughing.

"Beta they are just teasing you," Dadu said patting her head softly.

After that, she went to our room to get her luggage and I followed her saying I wanted some files.

She took one of her already-packed bags and looked at me.

"I will come at 7 sharp. I have a tight schedule. So don't disturb" I said.

"Look I'm not your..."

"Employee?" I completed her sentence.

"I will not let employees into my bedroom princess." What the hell? Why did I call her princess?

"Don't call me that." She chided.

"What? Princess?" I asked with a smirk.

"Don't call that." She said with a little irritation on her face. 

I am enjoying teasing her.

"We are royals. I am a Prince so my wife will obviously be a princess."

"Technically yes. But don't call that."

"I like calling you princess princess."

"Abhinav!" she said in a higher tone.

For the first time, she called me by my name and I melted like an ice-cream.

"Ha," I replied.

"Nothing. I'll see you in the evening."

Isha

I screamed his name in a high tone.

When he replied with a 'ha' I didn't know how to react so I just said I will see him in the evening.

I can feel him staring at me from the back.

Don't stare like that. I thought to myself.

"You are just walking in the direction I'm looking." He replied.

How does he know that?  

"I know everything wifey." He replied again.

Did he just call me wifey?

"Yes I did and you are."

I ran out of the room to avoid another secondhand embarrassment.

I came down a bhai was waiting for me. He took the bag from my hands.

"Which car did you bring?" I asked.

"I'm not gonna let you drive." He replied bluntly.

"Bhai please."

"No."

He went and sat in the driver's seat.

I know my puppy face doesn't work on him when it comes to cars so I just settled myself in the passenger's seat.

After 40 minutes I'm back at my home. My kingdom. I got down and ran in like a little kid.

As soon as I went in I saw Dad climbing down the stairs. 

He saw me and opened his arms. I ran into his arms.

We sat at the dining table and talked a lot like we met after years. Later Dad had to leave for an important meeting as Dad and Abhinav are launching a new product in a month.

I sat in the living room and chatted with Maa and Bhai. We didn't even realize the time passing by. It's already 6 p.m.

Maa went into the kitchen to prepare dinner for us.
