****

Sanju was seated on the couch, eagerly waiting for Aryan to return from office. It had been a while since he rejoined, and she was curious about how the product launch preparations were going and more importantly, how he had managed being away from her after spending every moment together for the past one and a half months.

Just then, the front door opened and Aryan walked in with Ranjith, both laughing heartily over something Ranjith had said.

Sanju raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What is that you are discussing about that made your boss laugh so much?"

Ranjith smirked. "All about your best friend Sanju."

Sanju blinked. "Who is that? Pavi or Keerthy?"

"Keerthy."

"What did she do?" Sanju asked, now even more curious.

Ranjith leaned against the wall, clearly enjoying the teasing. "Madam is all different now, a lot of changes."

"Be clear, bro," she insisted.

"Madam is always blushing these days. She's high in love."

Sanju's eyes widened. "What? Who is that lucky guy?"

"Our own Pradeep," Ranjith replied with a grin.

"Oh my god..." Sanju whispered, her face a mix of shock and amusement.

Aryan, noticing her reaction, stepped in gently. "Sanju, don't worry. He's not the same bad guy anymore. You can trust him. They'll make a good pair."

"But... she didn't tell me anything," Sanju said, a little hurt.

"Let's not push things between them," Aryan said. "Let it be spontaneous. We'll wait for them to come to us on their own."

Ranjith nodded, then said, "Sir, I'll take leave."

Once Ranjith left, Aryan scooped Sanju up into his arms and carried her to their room. He sat down on the couch with her comfortably curled in his lap.

"Tell me, how was your day? Did you miss me?" he asked softly.

Sanju smiled. "A little bored... and missed you a little."

"Just little?" he teased. "But I missed you a lot." He leaned in and kissed her earlobe tenderly.

Sanju laughed lightly. "How are the works progressing?"

Aryan pulled back slightly. "All fine, but I remember my wifey saying no business talks in our room."

"That's when I was also in office," she countered. "But now I'm at home, so I need to know. No problem discussing for a short while."

"Ohh," Aryan said with a smirk. "Then know that all the businesses are running smooth, even though I wasn't physically present at the office. The launch will also be successful. Everything is going fine... so I can stay at home with my wife."

"No," she said quickly. "Keep going to office."

"Fine," he chuckled. "Tell me, how is our baby? Did you eat well or did you and our baby starve?"

"I ate well and slept well," she assured him. "I feel better from nausea too."

"That's good," he said with a smile. "Now I need to kiss my baby."

He gently carried her to the bed, laid her down, and removed her top to expose her soft abdomen. Bending down, he placed a gentle kiss there.

"Hi baby," he whispered sweetly. "Sorry, Daddy left to office. Did you miss Daddy like Mommy? Daddy loves you. Be good and don't trouble Mommy, okay?"
