Another Half Of Me - Epilogue

One month later

Roshni turned in her sleep and felt Siddha’s head snuggled close to her neck. Smiling she glanced at him and found him sleeping peacefully. The calmness on his face felt like a blessing to her. Instinctively, she reached up and kissed his nose.

Siddha felt the light touch of her lips on his nose. Smiling sleepily, he opened his eyes and found her looking at him with those adoring eyes. He snuggled close to her and Roshni circled her arms around him. It felt so good to have her warm body close to his. Being married to her was the best feeling ever.

It had been a month that Roshni had come to stop him from leaving the city but it almost felt like yesterday. He hadn’t waited more than 7 days after that to get married to her. And, this time he hadn’t left her side even for a single second for those 7 days, in which they had talked about the misunderstandings and how Sandhya had poisoned her mind, and he had shared his painful memories.

Siddha was still thinking about these things when he heard Roshni ask, “What time is it?” while playfully brushing herself against his manhood.

“Don’t talk about time if you have to do that,” he replied biting hard on her shoulders.

She yelped laughingly and tried to escape his arms but Siddha pinned her beneath his body and confined her hands above her head.

He was about to kiss her when he heard a knock on their bedroom door.

“Damn,” he cursed hard as Roshni shoved him away giggling hard.

***************

Roshni was getting ready for a special party at Amit’s place when she heard Sid calling her from the drawing room. He had been given the duty of taking Tania and her to the party. She had hoped Siddha would take her but then he had a late meeting.

It had been more than 1 hour that she had reached the party but he was still not there. The surprise would be ruined if he came late. Looking at Sid, she was about to signal him to call Siddha, when he entered from the main door.

He smiled as soon as he saw her. Striding up to her, he grabbed her into his arms and hugged her hard.

“I know I am late and I am so sorry. The meeting…” Siddha stopped the moment Roshni placed a hand on his mouth.

Turning him, she placed a hand on his eyes and whispered, “Open your eyes when I tell you to.”

Siddha nodded as he heard someone wheeling something in the room.

“Now, open your eyes,” Roshni said removing her hand.

Siddha opened his eyes and saw cake in front of him. But his expression turned to shocked delight when he saw its written message.

“We are pregnant.”

He turned around and looked at her with tears in his eyes. Their baby was coming back to them. Roshni circled her arms around him just as he grabbed her. He whispered sweet promises of love and happiness in her ears just as everyone started to clap. He also promised one more thing: to keep her and the baby secure and safe.

After 3 hours into the party, he grabbed her and dragged her towards the balcony.

“Please let’s get out of here.”

“Why? It’s our party.”

Looking straight into her eyes, Siddha whispered, nuzzling his nose against her neck, “Coz, I can’t stay any longer without making love to you.”

They sneaked out and went straight home. That night they found new heights of pleasure as their love making intensified with promises of a beautiful and secure future ahead.
