Author POV
Night, 8 PM
It was night time and everyone was having their dinner when Virat called out anushka for something "Anushka, ek chapati"
His voice came out soft making anushka turn towards him who sat on the floor while signalling towards his plate,
Nodding her head while making her steps towards him, anushka kept two chapati's on his plate and her attention was diverted when he spoke in between "bas ek"
Glancing at him for once, anushka nodded her head before taking one chapati from his plate and making her steps towards nandini again who was cooking the chapati making Virat's eyebrows knit in confusion
Thinking about how she is being silent today from the time he came back home from fields made him slightly concerned and thinking of talking to her after having dinner, he eyed her before again continuing with his food
Virat POV
Night, 10 PM
Making my steps inside our room, I sighed before closing the door behind me but my eyebrows quickly knitted when I couldn't find anushka in the room
Being confused, my concern for her increased and again turning to open the door, I made my steps in the aangan to find her
Not finding her there either, I sighed before looking at the stairs and thinking she might've went to terrace, I hustled to reach the terrace
Reaching the terrace, I firstly slipped out of my slippers before taking a step on the cemented floor that was feeling rough and cold due to the weather
Turning my head towards the right, I was going to call out her name when my sight caught her figure
She was sitting on the bed made out of thatch of dry grasses kept on the floor while her back faced me,
Making my steps towards her slowly, I cleared my throat to get her attention and watching her not even moving, I nodded my head slightly before encircling the thatch to sit beside her
Feeling the dry grasses sinking in, I balanced my weight over it and keeping my chin on my palm while resting them with elbow on my knee, I tilted my face to look at her
Her eyes glanced at me for once before she again started to look at the night sky, The twinkling stars in dark blue night sky with the shinest crystal moon embroided on it
The night was beautiful
The nights are beautiful
"Humare radio ka dabba itna shant kaise hai aaj?" I thought to break the silence and muttering with a smile, I glanced at her face briefly while calling her names and expecting a glare, My smile grew wider when she whinned before hitting me on my biceps
Thanking god for a moment of emotions from her, I chuckled before shifting closer to her and asking "bataiye toh? Itni shant kaise hai aap? Kuch hua hai?"
I asked with a small smile to make her feel calm and watching her shaking her head in denial, I knitted my eyebrows at her behaviour before encircling my hand around her back to her other shoulder
"Kuch nhi hua?" I asked again while looking at her face and getting a shook of denial from her while her cheeks were puffed like a kid, I nodded my head while eyeing her
Sitting back on my position while looking at her, I examined her uncomfortable gestures while her hands continuously rubbed her abdomen
Raising my hand to brush my fingers into her hairs, I smiled when I saw her lips upturning into a small smile before she looked at me and nodding my head, I assured her before standing up and making my way downstairs again
Anushka POV
My eyebrows thinned when I saw him again going downstairs and feeling sad that he doesn't care about me, I sniffled at the pain in my lower abdomen before again looking at the stars
It was after the two minutes when my attention diverted and turning my head, a smile formed on my lips when I saw him coming towards me with a plate in his hands
Sitting beside me again,I saw him passing a sweet smile to me before he raised his hand to take a papaya's piece from the plate in between his fore-finger and thumb and forwarding it infront of my mouth
Author POV
A smile was dressed on Virat's lips while he forwarded the papaya's piece towards her lips and forming words with his mouth he said softly "Masik?"
Looking at him amazed while parting her lips, anushka took the bite before nodding her head shyly and looking down
Smiling at her action, Virat let out a breath before shifting closer towards her and forwarding another peice towards her lips,
Smiling when she ate like a obedient person, he raised his hand before placing it over her head and making her lay her head on his shoulder, he started to hum a soft tune while forwarding each of the pieces towards her lips in between
Chewing on the papaya slowly while still clutching on her stomach, anushka asked weakly "aapko kaise pata chala?"
Her voice came out weak making Virat concern but nodding his head while patting her head with his another hand, he spoke "bas ese hi"
Smiling while looking at her face, Virat waited for her reply but his eyebrows knitted listening to her "ese hi kuch nhi hota, aap kisi dusri aurat se milkar aate hai nah humare peeth piche?"
Chuckling at her while she glared at him, Virat nodded his head sassily before replying "hume toh ye baat chupani thi aapse, aapko kaise maalum pada biwi?"
He replied with pretending to be terrified tone and feeling a pinch on back of his hand, he laughed when she whinned and glared at him
Hitting his biceps twice, anushka again sat silent and snuggling in his embrace, she looked at the empty plate before again saying in a sad tone "Hume laga aapko humari fikar nhi hai isliye aap niche ja rahe hai sone"
Listening to her weak and sad tone, Virat shook his head in denial before resting his hand behind her back and pulling her closer into a hug, he brushed his fingers in her hairs before muttering in soft voice "humara toh din hi adhura rehta hai aapki chulbuli awaz sune bina, aapko lagta hai ki aap shant rahengi toh hum khush reh kar achhi neend Puri kar payenge?"
Replying with a soft tone, Virat tilted his head to look at her face but feeling her eyes closed, a smile formed on his lips when he saw her shaking her head in denial knowing her words and talkativeness matters to him and she again said in small voice "haan itna toh hum jante hai, humare Bina aapko koi khas bhi nhi daalta"
Knitting his eyebrows at her statement, he raised his eyebrows at her and opening her eyes while glancing at him anushka smiled at his reaction before again snuggling into the hug,
Stroking her back with his hand, Virat's eyes kept on gazing at her with love when she spoke in between "pati dev?"
Humming in response to her, Virat asked "ji biwi?"
Opening her eyes while listening to him, anushka firstly looked into his eyes that shined in the moonlight before saying with a small smile "Hume pulav khane ki icchha ho rahi hai"
Smiling while listening to her, Virat nodded his head before looking at her again snuggling into the hug and he interrupted "Hum banakar laayein aapni biwi ke liye pulav?"
Looking at him confused with his words, anushka asked in unsure manner "humare pati dev ko aata hai pulav bana-na?"
Smiling confidently to her, Virat nodded his head with a wide smile making anushka amazed and pulling out of hug softly, she quickly nodded her head "Hum bhi chalte hai aapke sath"
Saying this, she was going to stand up when virat quickly shook his head while holding her wrist softly to stop her, "nahi-nahi rani sahiba, aap vishram kijiye aur hume aagya dijiye aapke liye jhat se pulav taiyaar karne ki"
Saying with a royal accent, Virat stood up from the thatch of dry grasses and smiling while listening to him Virat's heart filled with a soothing feeling looking at anushka smiling widely before she replied "agar Ghar per aag nahi lagayenge aap toh aagya hai"
Looking at her offended, Virat looked at her with a competitive gaze making her laugh at him before she nodded her head and Virat started to make his steps towards the stairs while replying to her
"Aapke Shaq ko utar denge aur duniya ka sabse swadisht pulav khilayenge aapko"
Laughing while listening to him, anushka replied looking at him going away
"Hume bhi kuch esi hi aasha hai aapse Raja ji"
Virat POV
Blushing at her laughter, I made my way downstairs and looking at the aangan filled with darkness as maa might've already blowed off all the lamps, I sighed before making my steps towards the mandir
Taking the matchstick from the shelf, I walked towards the chullah area before lightening up the lamp of there and keeping it beside my wooden stool
Sitting on the wooden stool while looking around, My eyes fell on the cluster of the woods and taking few sticks along with one thick wood I started to burn them while keeping them inside the chullah
Coughing when smoke went directly into my mouth, I stood up quickly looking at the smoke and sighing annoyingly at them, I huffed in the air before making my steps inside the one of the small store room of our house
Taking out few vegetables and rice along with a utensil, I firstly put the utensil over the chullah and boiled the rice
Chopping the vegetables in the time being, I pulled the lamp closer to my plate before again trying to chop them
Feeling difficulty actually at the cooking session, I sighed while looking at the chullah and thinking of anushka's words, she was right
Again trying to start with cooking, my actions halted when I heard the ringing of anklets lingering in my ears and lifting my face, a smile formed on my lips looking at anushka
Smiling while looking at me, I saw her coming towards me before she sat beside me and taking the vegetables from my hands she said "aasan lagta hai abh Khanna bana-na?"
Shaking my head in denial, I kept my head on her shoulder while whinning and listening to her laughter, I smiled before taking the vegetables from her hands and again trying to chop them
"Aap niche kyu aayin? Hum bana rahe hai nah?" Looking at her sternly while again trying to focus on my work, I said
Watching her smile at me, I raised my eyebrows in question but they soon soothened when she replied in a teasing manner "Aapko dekh kar dikh raha hai ki humare Raja ji ko jarurat toh thi humari, isliye aapki Rani sahiba aagyi"
Smiling at her statement and then shaking my head in denial while listening to her, I replied with a soft tone "per hum apni Rani sahiba ko pareshan karna pasand nahi karenge"
Chuckling while listening to me, I saw her taking the knife from my hand while she replied "Humare pait ke dard me aaram hai Virat ji, aayiye aapki sahaayta Kara dete hai hum"
Her words were sweet while her voice was sounding slow, looking at her face with the soft gaze, I shook my head in denial again before taking the knife away from her reach
"Fir aap yaha bhaith kar hume nihar lijiye aur agar hume zarurat hogi toh hum aapki sahayata le lenge"
Replying with a pleading voice knowing she won't agree if I do completely by myself, a smile formed on my lips when she nodded
Continuing with the work while she rested her head over my back while I cooked, I smiled feeling her encircling her hands on my waist from behind and hugging me
Being done with the food, I muttered "taiyaar ho gaya hai aapka Shahi Khanna Rani ji"
Chuckling while listening to me, I saw her nodding her head and pulling away while looking at me with tired eyes, she said "achha aur aapne ye jo kabad faila diya hai yaha uska kya kare abh?"
She asked with a teasing smile and looking around the place, it seemed like a disaster but shrugging my shoulders carelessly, I replied "dekh lenge, abhi chaliye aap pulav kha kar bataiye"
Chuckling while listening to me, she nodded her head and pulling out a plate I forwarded the pulav from utensil to the plate and making a first bite with hand, I forwarded it towards her lips
"Aaaa Karo" looking at her while making a sound from my mouth as if refering her to open her mouth, I saw her chuckling before she parted her lips and following the same sound, she took the first bite
Looking at her nervously, I waited for her to say something and my lips formed into a wide smile when I saw the soothing expression on her face
"Are wahh, itna swadisht" she muttered with her eyes widened and blushing to her excitement, I replied shyly "dhanywaad"
Chuckling while looking at me, I saw her extending her hands to take another bite and smiling while looking at her excitement, I offered "uper chalkar khayein?"
Looking at her nodding her head I smiled before standing up and helping her stand, Making our way towards the terrace we both soon reached there and sitting on the same thatch of dry grasses, I took the plate from her hands
Blowing on the hot food while forwarding my hands towards her lips, I fed her with a small smile and blushing at her compliments and the smile she gave with each bite, I finally kept the plate with small amount of pulav aside
"Kaisa laga?" I asked with a proud smile and watching her laughing at me, I saw her hitting my biceps before she nodded her head with cheessy smile
"Abh itne pyaar se taiyaar kiya hai humare liye aapne toh swadisht toh hona hi tha"
Blushing at her statement while she pinched my cheeks, I looked at her face and figuring out her cramps has vanished, I asked "abh neend aarahi hai aapko?"
I asked and looking at her nodding her head, she asked "aaj chhatt per hi soye?"
Nodding my head with a smile, I watched her standing up before she forced her hands over my shoulder making me lay on the thutch
Shifting properly at the long thutch, I watched her sitting beside me before she also laid and shifting closer, a smile formed on my lips when I felt her laying over me
Feeling her body weight, I chuckled when I saw a small smile on her lips and her eyes closed while she held onto my shoulders
Encircling her waist from behind while raising my other hand to pat her head, I watched her smiling in the sleep
Her breathing were normal while I brushed my fingers into her hairs and feeling her breathing calming, I figured out she slept on me and smiling at her sleeping face, I started to hum a soft tune
Looking at the moon
My moon
I patted her cheek before tilting my head and looking at the plate
Taking a small bite of pulav from the plate, I parted my lips taking the bite but my eyebrows knitted at the horrible taste and gulping it down with difficulty
I coughed small,
"Itna namak" diminishing my eyes at the much amount of salt I poured in the pulav, I kept it aside and looking at anushka, I wondered how she ate it
Her lips were still formed in a smile and feeling soft at how she still ate for my efforts, a upturn made their way on my lips
Feeling her snuggling into the cuddle, I watched her head coming up towards the crook of my neck and keeping it there, the sleep again engulfed her
Smiling at her while holding her with a gentle hold, I tilted my head towards her face and thinking for some moments
A blush formed on my lips before I came closer to keep my lips over her forehead softly and leaving a long peck there,
