Chapter 51: Chapter 51

*Amrin Pov*

“Dileep! He is my baby too.” I said whining and leaned back to the headboard sighing when he didn’t even glance at me or acted like he heard me.

“Here! He is crying.” He said passing me my baby, and I immediately held him in my arms before glaring at Dileep.

“He will not come to your arms again, no matter what, and if I need anything, I will ask your Mom or Nipuna.” I said before smiling at my baby.

“I was just playing with him.” Dileep said in a confused tone.

“Really? You are giving him to me only when he needs to be fed or his diaper to be changed. I am not leaving my stand.” I said, shaking my head and started feeding.

“Stop shouting at me, Amrin. Everyone said it will stop once the pregnancy is over as your hormones become normal.” He said frowning at me.

“I am shouting now not because of my hormones, but because of your doings. You are not even going to the company for one whole week from the time we returned from the hospital.” I said frowning back at him.

After some time, I glanced at him while rocking the baby and saw that he is in deep thought. I frowned, thinking why is he so silent now and immediately felt guilty thinking I may have talked too much.

However, I remembered how he is not letting me spend some time with the baby at all and brushed away the feeling.

“Ok! I didn’t dare to ask you, until now, and I know it is really late to ask this moment.” He continued to mumble, and I started feeling more scared with each word.

“Do you regret him?” he finally asked and I stared at him, like I never got any more confusion than I am feeling right now.

“What? Do you even know what are you even asking? Did I behave like that or what?” I started asking him not getting a single clue. Why did he even got that doubt in his head?

“No! You have never behaved like that. It is just that you always wanted to wait for a few more years, but we got him because of the failing of your precautions while I didn’t use one.” He replied holding my hand.

“And?” I asked him still not understanding.

“Do you think it would have been better if we had a chance to wait for a few more years?” he asked and I sighed staring at him.

“I wished to wait, but I never for a second got that in my mind from the moment, I got to know about the pregnancy. We seemed to be ready except you're hijacking him, though.” I replied, and he laughed shaking his head.

“So, I need not to worry at all?” he asked smiling.

“No! However, you may start worrying about when will you get to hold him.” I said, moving away from him, and he glared at me before moving to my side.

“I just still can’t believe we have a baby. I mean, he is so cute.” Dileep said caressing his cheek.

“Yes! He didn’t get it from his dad though.” I said grinning.

“Please! Everyone fell for my cuteness when I was a kid.” He said shaking his head.

“And when you have grown up?” I asked raising my eyebrow.

“I fell in love with a beautiful woman.” He said pecking my cheek, and I smiled at him.

“Everything is perfect except for one thing.” He said frowning.

“I know what is that thing and I think you are torturing me like this because of that only.” I said shaking my head.

“I mean, what would have happened if we named him like that? I have a right to decide too.” He said with a small smile and a little smirk covering his face.

“No! If you want, you can call him anything by yourself, but his name will not be Ivaan.” I said in a stern tone.

“When will your hormones come in check? You would have accepted anything I said if it was before.” He said sighing.

“So, the prince of Ivaan is unable to bear the wife who is not accepting his every word?” I asked smiling at him.

“I am not the Prince of Ivaan anymore, darling wife. The prince is in your arms, and the Princess of Ivaan is Aahna. Someone else will be added when Mridula will give birth to a boy or girl within a month maybe.” He replied shrugging.

“Then what are you?” I asked him frowning.

“I am the king of Ivaan, who got his queen.” He replied pecking my lips, and before I could kiss him back, he moved away with an evil glint.

I frowned and looked down to see the place where Nivaan is sleeping is empty and turned to see him in Dileep’s arms.

“Dileep! This is just not fair. For you, I have kept his name as Nivaan instead of completely Ivaan not wanting to make him name joke, but here you are torturing me.” I said shouting at him.

“He is my son!” Dileep said shrugging.

“Fine! Do his every job while I will just go and stay in the guest house.” I said, getting up and started walking near to the door, but he stopped holding my hand.

“I think I should destroy that guest house. Every time you are giving me that threat.” He said glaring.

“Well, you are making me.” I said shrugging at him.

“Fine!” he said, placing Nivaan in my arms and then held me from the side.

“Now, it will be fine.” He added, making me smile at him and lean on his shoulder staring at our sleeping baby.

*Nipuna Pov*

“Say it, Aahna! I will give you a little water if you say it.” I said, pleading her and heard someone’s laugh from behind.

I turned to see Aahil laughing and holding his camera near to us shaking his head.

“What are you doing?” I asked him frowning.

“I am just recording it now thinking I should show to her once she grows up to make her realize how her Mom bribed her with water.” He replied smirking, and I glared at him before taking the camera from his hand.

“She is not calling me at all.” I said frowning and stared at Aahna, who is smiling at her dad.

“Dada!” she mumbled slowly, and I groaned while he smiled at her before lifting her into his arms.

“See? She is saying yours but not mine at all.” I mumbled folding my arms.

“Maybe she doesn’t love you.” He teased smirking at me, and I raised my eyebrow at him while he was busy with smiling at Aahna.

“Aahil! I Need to tell you something.” I said, but he didn’t turn towards me at all.

“Aahil!” I shouted and he suddenly turned to stare at me.

“What?” he asked, frowning.

“I didn’t get drunk a few moths back.” I again shouted with a terrified expression.

“So?” he asked, frowning more.

“Then how did I get pregnant again?” I asked and placed the camera in a way to record his face, and I saw the worth expressions which will teach him never to tease me in this matter.

“What? What do you mean by pregnant and drunk and why are you talking like this?” he asked with complete confusion.

“What is happening is, I am trying to record something to show Aahna when she grows up how I can fool her dad within a second.” I replied smirking and waved his camera.

“So, are you pregnant or not?” he asked ignoring my words.

“No! I am not.” I said to which he frowned and sighed.

“What? Did you wish for me to be?” I asked him frowning.

“Yeah! It would be good, but not with your wish.” He replied, smiling and I shook my head before walking near to him.

“Let her grow up a little, and then we will think.” I said, smiling and he nodded before smiling at Aahna, who is giving both of us curious expressions.

“We can adopt too, you know.” He said staring at me.

“Do you know that I love you?” I asked staring at him.

“No!” he said, shaking his head smiling.

“Then get this in your head that I love you so much.” I said placing my hand over his cheek.

“Maa!” I suddenly heard the word, but couldn’t believe it myself and turned to see Aahna staring at me

“Oh my God! She called me.” I said squealing before taking her into my arms and sat down before talking to her and playing with her.

“You forgot me, Nipuna.” I heard him, saying along with clearing his throat so that I can listen.

“I am busy with my daughter. You go and do your work or something.” I said, waving him off, but frowned when Aahna fell into sleep.

“This is not fair, Aahna.” I said, picking her up and took her to the adjacent room Mom arranged in everyone’s room a few months back when she got to know even Mridula is pregnant, and everyone will be busy with kids.

I stepped outside the room and immediately felt him lifting me up, making me shriek at the sudden moment.

“What are you doing?” I asked him frowning.

“You are ignoring too much these days.” He said, placing me on the bed.

“You are busy for yourself with the great bonding with my dad.” I said shaking my head.

“You can join us in the discussion.” He offered.

“No way! One thing will never change, and that is my disinterest towards it.” I said shaking my head without stopping.

“You have become too busy with everything these days.” He said frowning.

“Then, what else should I do? Mridula is eight months pregnant and Nivaan born just a few days back. Who will look after everything and then Aahna is not stopping at the place where we are keeping her and always moving here and there?" I said sighing.

“You are feeling okay with all this work right?” he asked in a worried tone.

“Okay? Aahil! You don’t know what I am feeling by doing all this work for everyone.” I said grinning at him.

“I have seen no one this excited doing household work.” He said laughing.

“I just don’t like to be at a place in anything where I don’t know something. However, now that I am becoming pro at that, I am feeling like I have achieved so much.” I said sighing happily while he laughed more.

“What would have happened if I didn’t meet you at that party when you were nearly wasted?” he asked smiling.

“Then we would have met at another party where I would have been wasted, and then the rest would be history.” I replied shrugging.

“So, what you mean to say is unless you are wasted, you wouldn’t have got any attraction towards me?” he asked frowning.

“I think so!” I said, nodding slowly.

“You will never stop torturing me, Nipuna.” He said smiling before kissing me.

When he released me, I smiled at him and said, “I am not drunk now.”

“I love you!” he said, laughing and I smiled before hugging him and whispered the words back.

*Abhivanth Pov*

“I have decided to leave my job and if possible just look after a little part of our company. However, only if Dileep doesn't mind.” I said when we all sat for dinner after a few days since Mridula returned with Urmila.

“Dad! You are the one who invested in it. It will be always yours.” Dileep said in a serious tone.

“It means a lot to hear you say that, but still I just need a small job so that I can spend more time with my grandchildren.” I said smiling.

“You mean there will be no more relations with the government to show our royalty?” Nipuna asked frowning.

“No! I can see that the true royalty is somewhere else.” I replied, staring at my family before my eyes.

“Is it really you talking like this?” Premila joked, and everyone laughed.

“I am delighted that you are leaving that royalty thing. It sure became adverse in this family until now.” Nipuna said shaking her head.

“Nipuna! If you think we have become adverse, then you will have no words to think about my old classmate royalty nature.” I said smiling.

“Why?” Mridula asked, frowning.

“He is at present the king in his place and monarchy is being followed in his small island. We can’ even describe the rules at all.” I replied shaking my head.

“Really? Then it will be interesting to know more about them or even meet them.” Nipuna said smiling at us.

“Why don’t you insult that king, Nipuna?” Dileep asked laughing.

“I have something which you don’t have, Dileep. I have something called the brain and know what to do and what not to do.” Nipuna said glaring at him.

I just wish there never comes any chance for us to even meet them. It still gives me creeps thinking about his kingdom’s rules and everything.

Maybe they have been changed by now. Who cares? I thought, shaking my head and smiled at the family who is the reason for me to be proud of. Then I glanced at Premila feeling elated to know that we are having our own happy life.

“Love won over royalty and everything else, Abhivanth.” Premila said glancing back at me.

“I know! And I am glad that it did.” I said smiling.

“I am pleased that you feel glad about it. Otherwise, I would have tortured you for sure.” She said smiling, and I laughed shaking my head.

I am really lucky! I thought, smiling to myself, and dived into the discussions going around the table knowing well not to miss a moment in life with them for anything.
