OUR MARRIAGE IS JUST A PIECE OF PAPER : EPISODES 151 – THE END
Episode 155
” Ahana!! Wait… I’m sorry on his behalf. ” Dad shouted. But she didn’t look back.
Taking the broken camera I saw on the sofa. Dad and grandad came towards me.
” What the hell was that Ansh… We were doing that for the kids’ and you ruined all the fun. Don’t you want her to be happy?” Dad said.
” Dad!! I want her to be happy. See, I brought her favourite pastries too.” I said pointing to the bag.
” But bringing them won’t help, right? You need to keep her happy with your behaviour also. I don’t know what is off behind you too but please tell us if it’s important. ” Grandad said looking at me.
But I had already promised Ahana that it’s a secret between us.
” It’s nothing. I will apologise. You guys can sleep. ” I said taking the pastries to my room.
The lights were already dim and Ahana was in the bed, facing towards the window. I know she is awake. Just to show that I was upset I went for a shower.
I came back quickly and crept in the duvet. I moved towards her and she pulled the cover to her side feeling my presence. I knew she wouldn’t sleep so early.
I saw her wet cheeks and cleaned them.
” Ahana!!”
” Ansh… I’m asleep.?” She said hastily.
” Well, that’s not what I see Ahana. Look, I have brought your favourite pastries. C’mon, let’s eat together.”
” I’m not hungry.” She said sniffing.
I kissed her forehead and wiped her cheeks. She pulled hand in hers. I cuddled and slept back hugging her.
” Ahana!! I know it’s difficult for both of us. But I want you to believe me that I won’t let anything happen to you. I know why were you making that video. You wanted the kids to know you, but trust me you will make it…
Please. You have to make it for me at least. I can’t breathe without you. ” As soon as I said that she turned and hugged me tightly, engulfing her face in my chest.
I rubbed her back to calm her. She didn’t say a word.
Let the silence calm us and then in each other’s embrace we slept.

” Hey! Sleepy Head… Get up… Piya and Zara are on their way here. ” I called Ahana.
” What? “She asked rubbing her eyes.
” They called about 15 minutes ago. They want you to accompany them for shopping. Get ready… ”
” Are you serious? But I don’t want to go. And aren’t you going to the office? ” She asked looking at my casual attire.
” Nah!! I am working from home. Don’t upset them Ahana. Anyways Mir along with little champ and Jaai are coming at our house. It’s like boy’s day in the house and girls day out. ” I said smiling.
” Oh! I don’t know why I find it fishy… ”
” Hey! Sherlock Holmes… Why don’t you take a bath and get ready first?”
” Fine!! ” She grunted.
In an hour everyone was at our house. And looking at them Ahana’s mood was lifted up. She didn’t protest at all. And I was glad she didn’t because we had a lot of work to do.
Jaai, Mir, Dad and Grandad were helping me decorate the house along with the kids’ room. Dad and grandad were ready to move in the farm house within few weeks and Ahana’s wasn’t aware of anything.
I wanted to surprise her with the decorations. I had requested Zara and Piya to take her out for few hours. As soon as they left we engrossed ourselves in setting up the things. I had even repaired the camera with my extraordinary skills and talent and retrieved the video.
In the late afternoon even the Sehgal’s joined us. I never expected that surprising someone would be so much fun.

After a day’s work it was just perfect. The nursery was adorable. Just what Ahana would like. Light colours and airy with books and toys. I even had planned a special surprise for her.
” Guys!! Thanks… It wouldn’t have been possible without you. And I need to thank my little champ for being a sweetheart.” Kyle cooed as I caressed him.
” Hey! Buddy… Anytime.” Mir said.
Just then I received a text from Piya that they were on their way home. At once I switched on the lights which were planted on the exterior of the house. It was glistening.
All of us went outside when we heard their car come in. Ahana got down followed by Zara and Piya. Looking at us she was awestruck. She noticed the lighting.
” Hey!! What’s happening?” She queried.
” SURPRISE!!” Everyone shouted together. She looked at her girl friends and they had a wicked grin on their face.
” You knew it…” She asked.
” Yeah!! Everyone did. We just helped Ansh to surprise you. Now go have a look yourself. We are going for a dinner anyways.” Zara said.
” Ma!! You too?”
” Yup!! Now don’t waste your time here. Ansh has worked hard the entire day. ”
” But where are you all going? ” She asked.
” Ahana… Jaai and Zara are taking them for a dinner tonight. ” I said.
” And why aren’t we invited?” She asked.
Ahana! When will she understand?
” Because you Dear husband wanted to spend some time alone with you. So! No more questions… We are off. ” Jaai said saving me.
” Dad!! Grandad… ”
” Bye… ” Saying so everybody left, leaving us alone.
Ahana was still looking at the gates till there cars weren’t visible anymore.
” That’s cheating… ” She said.
” Ahana! C’mon… I won’t bore you. Promise. You will have more fun with me. Come I want to show you something.” I pulled her towards the entrance of our house and unveiled the new plate.
It was written, ‘Anshana’s Paradise’.
Looking at it she gasped.
” Ansh!! This wasn’t needed at all. Raichnad’s Mansion was fine. ”
” I know but Dad insisted. They have already decide to move out and this was the name I had planned for our new house so he asked me to change this. You like it?”
” Yeah!! But…”
” No… Buts now… ”
I took her in the house. We had decorated it with fresh flowers and dim lights. From the expression on Ahana’s face I could make our that she loved it. I took her straight to the kids’ room.
” Ansh! This is so good. I wanted to do it but you have done it magnificently.” She remarked.
Everything from the toys to picture books and a double bed was properly placed. Anyways the babies were due in a month and half now.
” You like it?”
” Nah!! Instead, I love it… Thanks… ” She said hugging me tightly.
Then I took her to our room. I had decorated it with fresh flowers and candles.
I had even cooked and arranged a beautiful setting in the balcony just as I had done for our first anniversary.
The pictures of us on the wall complimented it and it was more than perfect.
I showed her a new camera with the clip she had recorded the previous day.
” I’m sorry Ahana. I don’t know why did I do that.”
” It’s alright. You have made up very well.” She said kissing my lips. I didn’t let her go soon.
