I woke up as soon as the rays fell on my body.... This glass wall is soo irritating in the mornings...

I rubbed my eyes and looked to my right to see Ibbu still sleeping. I covered him with the bedsheet and went inside the washroom.

Oh wait....today is....
Sunday it is.....
" SUNDAY!!!! YOYOYOYO
SUNDAY!!!! " I screamed and fisted my hand in air... Sunday is the only day in the week which gives me more energy than anyother day....

I turned around with the brush in my mouth and my eyes widened looking at my son who's eyes are as wide as saucers.....
From when was he here?...

He came to me raising his hands up to me and I lifted him up and let him sit on the basin.
We took bath together and played for a couple of minutes in the water tub...

We both got ready for the day as I remember Alexander telling me that we all had to go out on Sunday....
I didn't say anything that day and just nodded a 'yes' because I really want to go out!

I already feel like a fashionista.....

I applied a little bit of makeup and then I took my son , with husky following behind me to the hall room.

I looked around and saw angel looking out through the glass wall.
She is soo cute in that frock....

She turned around and as soon as her eyes laid on me,
she came running to me and said " we are wearing the same color! and shoes too! " with a lot of excitement and I nodded saying
" yes of course! "

As soon as the aroma hit our nostrils, we went as fast as we can and sat on our chairs with Ibbu on my lap.

Chef served us with pancakes with chocolate syrup for angel and with honey for me.... I seriously miss Indian heavy breakfast....
It's a heaven of it's own....

" my little girl forgot her daddy " I turned to my back and looked at Alexander who is acting hurt.... Seriously, I can never get adjusted to this man's antics.

We all had our breakfast and I sat on the couch along with the kids as he is having his coffee while reading newspaper in his 'tab'.... I scoffed mentally....

He raised his eyes upto me while drinking his coffee.....

That was more than enough for me to choke on my saliva. Did I do something wrong? Why the hell is he giving me such a cold glare?
When was he not cold? He is the world's certified Iceberg.

Sometimes I wonder how did I survive for 2 looonnngggggg weeks with this man....not to forget that I even work for him.... So basically, I see his face all the while....
Like a poster stuck on my face.

I still don't understand why do those woman in office glare at me and sometimes 'jealous' is clearly written in bold letters on some of their faces...
I would mentally scream at them as...

' Take this man yaar...
I don't want him...
I will in return give money to who ever takes this man away..... '

How could they even be attracted to the one who is looking soo scary?

As soon as he was done with his coffee which was like as if I travelled through hell in those few mintues , we followed him to his personal parking lot / garage....

There were wide variety of cars and he chose a black one among the black ones.....( rolling eyes)

We all settled down with him in the driver seat and me beside him while Ibbu, rose and dog behind.

He was driving too fast for my own liking and I turned around to see rose and Ibbu unfazed while my dog is giving me serious hilarious vibes of the day. He was pressed back into the seat and is looking angry and scared at the same time... Lol.

I started laughing looking at his face and everyone looked at husky and started laughing , while Alexander has a small smile etched on his ink face.

As soon as we reached a medium sized mall, we got out and I helped children to get out. I looked around as Alexander guided us....

This is my first time in NYC.... I mean coming into the roads of NYC.

I looked around the stores and they seemed out of my budget which I am sure not shocked of....

Alexander took us inside a store and to a section which had wigs.
" select one " he said and I felt like my veins are popping out with anger.

" I don't have much time " he said and I controlled myself.

" Ibbu, select one wig " I said and he looked around, pointed at a red wig which I immediately grabbed from the mannequin head and kept it on the counter.

" card or cash ma'am " she asked and another woman spoke in her ear something and the lady said " sorry " and gave me the bag. I nodded and took it from her.... Ofc they knew with whom I am.....

He is sitting on a couch and I stood infront of him with the bag which he noticed and nodded. He stood up and looked around....

Wait... Where is rose?

I looked around and found her looking at key chains. I went near her and saw the key chain she was admiring....

" do you like it? " I asked her from behind while she nodded looking at me and showing the key chain. I too liked it so I took 8 of them. One for rose and 7 for me.... I like cute stuff... Maybe I'm a little obsessed with them....

I smiled and took her to the counter. I billed it and gave money though they said "no" seeing someone behind me which I know all too well who it must be....but I want to give it to her from my own money so I forced them to take the money for which they looked behind me again and nodded taking the money.

Rose smiled while I smiled back seeing her happy face....

We got out of the store and followed Alexander, he was holding onto rose's hand while Ibbu is on my hip with dog beside me...

I like the feel of walking in malls...and looking around the stores.....
and people too....
It's been soo long....

Alexander took us to another high end store and he asked rose to do her shopping and buy whatever she wants.... Rose nodded and pulled me along with her to the kids section.

It's a kids heaven! Cute little clothes...
We were also served with chocolate milk shakes!

She started handing on clothes randomly, she even kept 2 different sizes of same clothes which made me wonder if her father ever actually helped her in shopping....

clearly this girl is wasting money...

Oh yah
How can I forget that her father has a lorry full of money.

I took the dresses she chose from the sales lady and squatted to her level turning her back to me. I checked the sizes by placing it on her back and then removed the extra ones and small ones...

After we were done, I turned around to look at Alexander looking at Ibbu. Why the hell is he staring at my son?
I turned over covering my son and Alexander said " let's leave " to which we all obeyed like we had to and followed behind him after getting her clothes. He is holding a bag........

While standing on escalator, I noticed something different... There are people in similar clothes... Not very similar but similar.... I saw one of them nodding to another and then the other took over the first man's position. Sweat on my forehead ain't helping me at all.... Tensed is all I was at this moment...

" Alexander, the people here are suspicious.....
They are pretending to be one of the public and they seem too
But they are not...." I said still looking over to find more... Keeping myself cool, not giving out my fear..... They might attack of they knew that we found out...... Alexander kept silent all the while.....

As soon as we reached the food court, I asked kids to sit on a near by table to the queue where there are a lot of normal people. Me and Alexander went to the soo called line which also seemed suspicious to me....
What the fuck is going on???!!!
I was about to run back when I heard
" don't fret
These are my people " he said a few words and I nodded heaving silently....

So, this whole mall is a setup?
So......these are not real genuine people around ?
they are all gaurds or something?
But why did he do this???

After raking my brain for a few more seconds I understood that it was for rose.... She didn't knew any of this... She might be thinking that these people are genuine people....
So to make her feel like she is outside and also to ensure safety, he planned this stuff.... 
From how long was he doing this??
Poor girl thinks that she is out with her father in the mall but dosen't know that this is his box and puppets here played on his fingers...

My life is faaaaaar more better.

After getting ourselves food from the fake queue that we had to stand for 20 minutes, we went back to our table and I set down the food. I excused myself and waited in another queue while watching all the people who are acting.....

What if I shout 'bomb bomb' now?

Okay brain....suck it up.
I assure you that you will be no more on the planet named earth if you piss that person.

But I serioulsy just want to see how would it be if I just shout once....
Only once....once.....

I controlled myself , took my tray and went back to table. Alexander was feeding rose while husky is also eating his food. Ibbu is holding a spoon and lightly tapping his plate waiting for someone to open up his meal....

I pushed his tray aside and kept the tray I bought infront of him. I lifted him and settled him on my lap. His little body felt soo good in my arms that I just want to squeeze him tightly....

His eyes brightened as soon as he saw the ice cream infront of him... Though I was reluctant but I knew he wants to taste it....
Maybe just a little won't be a problem I guess....
I hope so,
I better make him drink pudhina water after reaching home... Maybe ginger water too....

He took in small spoons inside his mouth and within no time almost more than half is completed....
He brought spoon near my mouth
" Mumma dosen't like ice cream " I said and he kept it inside his mouth immediately....

I ate my burger in the mean while and looked around still staring at the people...
I feel soo airtight
as if I'm stuck in a room with spycams again...
I hate this feeling...
It's making me frenzy...
But I have to come over this...

Though my hands trembled a little, 
I stuffed French fries in my mouth making sure to push it inside my mouth....and control my rising panic...

Suddenly I saw another box of French fries pushed towards me and I looked at Alexander.
" eat it, I've had enough
I don't want food to be wasted " he said sternly.... Though his words would sound as if humiliating but I knew that his intentions were totally towards different.

I ate that box too and we left the mall with bags in our hands. As soon as we got inside the car, I relaxed and leaned more into the seat... It was tiring and the time was already 3:00pm . How did time fly by soo quick?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As soon as we reached the condo, Except for Alexander who is walking in like a robot, we all pulled ourselves inside. No offence but I couldn't even lift my baby and husky is giving him a ride on his back.

I entered my room and took Ibbu with me who is shouting 'no' for a bath... Husky already sprawled on the carpet like an octopus and started to doze off... I took a hold of his two legs from behind and pulled him while he is barking....
This guy is more lazy than my son....

I put them in the tub after removing Ibbu's clothes and let the warm water fill in. I too removed my clothes leaving inners on and sat with with them in the cozy bathing tub....

I let the warm seep in
My muscles relaxed
I sighed
My son sighed
My husky sighed.

After sleeping for a couple of minutes in the tub,  I scrubbed Ibbu, then husky and then myslef.
I wore a robe and kept my son in a towel and husky too got himself in a robe... I started laughing my guts out as soon as he stumbled on his own robe.... Lol....while he is glaring at me.
I took him in my arms, removed the robe and tied a towel around him.
He dosen't have to wear clothes and world dosen't have a problem with it... how good it is....

We changed into something comfy and I made them sleep. After they slept, I went down the stairs and reached the couch in hall. I sat on the couch and looked at the glass wall, looking over at the city....everything looks soo small... But beautiful...

" day after tomorrow you have to accompany me " he said as if it's something new...
But my instincts didn't settle well with his half information...

" where to? " I asked still looking out while I can feel him standing behind the couch and leaning front with his both hands on either sides of the couch with me in middle.
I can smell him.

" somewhere you shouldn't be " he said and I looked over at the tallest buildings almost reaching the sky.... I was never meant to be here from the beginning....

" you chose to stay....
I never go back on my word " he said.
I felt coldness seeping into my blood slowly and my limbs becoming numb....
Something in me tells me that something big is going to happen...
Something bad.... I can't point it or express this painful void filling inside of me........



Third person POV:

In dark room
Arjun is seated in his chair like a king staring at the once broken phone now back on its life....
Yes life....
Everything of her's is very dear to him.... Very dear....that he has killed the one who looked inside his wife's phone while repairing it....

' Now Now...
Only I have the right after my wife...
Right? '

He looked at the white phone,
Surely my wife is the purest...
He pressed the power button and the screen showed up.A wave of emotions passed through his heart.

He pressed '7' five times and the phone unlocked. She told him the password....

He started watching videos she took.... Either it was her sister and brother dancing in their room and I can hear her laughing while recording it.....
It felt nice....

I saw some of her other videos of her mom cooking, prank on her father with a woollen bunny cap....

One video in which she wore a plain black Saree with gold blouse and big gold earrings , black bindi. She dressed up like a retro heroine and walked on the ramp. She looked soo beautiful and many people were clapping for her...in the front seats with doctors and the rest occupied by students.... Then suddenly out of nowhere, a boy of her age came and they both continued the walk with interwined hands....

His veins bulged out of his forehead looking at other males around his wife. He fisted his hands and the next second there was a crack on his wooden table.

The next video started playing in which she introduced their home...

" Soo guys today let's check out my home sweet home....
What do you say baby? " she said with baby on her hip and facing the camera.
