Mahir's POV:

Bela's eyes were shooting fire right now!!!

She could probably burn the world into ashes too...

I smiled looking at her. She looked outside the window while our darling daughter started crying again...

Dadda's girl 🤭 my dear attention seeker 😜

Sahi jarahi he beta...bilkul Dadda pe gayi he (good going darling..just like your dad!
🤣

Bela again got busy cooing Musky while I slowly nudged Karishma to get up and showed her in action to get up from my shoulders!!!

But my awesome luck 🤦🤷
She thought she should hug me closer...

Next second she literally lied on my chest...

Now 🙊 I was scared to look at Bela...

I slowly looked at her she was fuming!!!

Suddenly she said loudly..
'Aaru why don't you shift backside...you have been driving continuously na...'

To which her 'Aaru!!! Bloody joker' stopped the car in one go...'

And said 'Sure baby!!!'

While I knew what's coming next so I pretended to yawn and tilted my head on Bela's shoulder...

'Ohhhhh my head is aching...I can't drive!!!'

To which Archit said....' Dude I have an eye infection I can't drive...'

Kuhu didn't know to drive, Pooja didn't want to drive...

So the last option was Karishma ☺️🤭

I was happily good that the weight is literally getting off my shoulder!

But then the Dr Joker will shift backside!!!

I was quick to say...' Hey Arnav take the passenger seat na ... anyways you need rest it's more comfy ☺️....'

Smart you are.... Mahir Sehgal!!!

Next minute Kuhu denied and the Dr Joker shifted backside...

And I was annoyed!!!

Because Bela who always preferred window seat was more than happy to let go the seat and sat between me and the joker 😡

And the nerve he had he encircled his arms around Bela...

But I was quicker...

Before he did that...I moved my hand crossing Bela's shoulder asking..
'Hey Arnav... Can you pass Musky's bag kept there...

And finally my hand landed on her shoulder.

She shot me a glare!!

But hell I care!!!

No one touches my Bela!!! And that joker!!
NEVER!!!

She was pissed and had a grumpy face but dhe couldn't protest as Musky was sleeping...

I was feeling very happy to have Bela so close to me ...

But how I wished that Dr Joker didn't sit next to her...he was talking on and on and on!!

But again my daughter Zindabad 🤭...

She started crying loudly!!! Obviously she prefers pin drop silence when sleeping 🤣

Bela started cooing Musky in her arms..and hushed the talking tom next to her 🤣🤣🤣

While I couldn't control my laugh ...

She glared at me and asked...
'What's so funny huhhh??? Help me coo her' she said...

With pleasure sweetheart ❤️

Next second I encircled my arms more on Bela and like ideal mom dad we together cooed our daughter to sleep ❤️

Dr Joker got bored and slept while i and Bela were busy cooing Musky....

Her face was really close to my face...a few strands of hair fell on hair where flying and touching my cheeks ❤️❤️❤️

I pulled a little closer by her shoulders...

Side hugging her...

And she lifted her head up and saw me...

Our eyes met.. the hair strands were flying on her face...

I slowly closed the window on my side...

And the hair strands settled on her face...

While still holding her sideways in my chest..I slowly moved the hair strands and tucked them behind her ears..

She kept looking at me silently...

I looked into her face and near her ears i softly whispered...

'You can sleep if you are tired goddess'

She shivered a little and moved s little that side but then she saw the joker was sleeping lazily on the other side...

So she stuck in my arms 🤭

First time I was thankful to the joker...

I was looking outside while in a few minutes I felt weight on my shoulders ❤️

Bela was sleeping peacefully on my shoulders ❤️ ufff!! How lucky I am today...

I kept looking at her beautiful face throughout the journey ❤️

We reached Chennai by 4 pm ...

There was traffic but then Chennai is a well organised city. Clean and beautiful too ❤️

We were put up at the 5 star resort in Besant Nagar owned by my friend Raghav.

Indeed awesome view of the Elliott beach and the cottages were lavish.

I had heard new beach road is quite lively in evening and morning... It always had snacks and savories selling...

Also Elliott beach also called Besant Nagar beach was one of the cleanest and beautiful beaches to stay till late night...

Good crowd.

Once we reached our hotel we went to the beach and had an awesome time...
How I wished Bela spoke to me as much as she was with that Dr Joker...

We had a quick dinner and went to our rooms quickly.... Bela and me ...we had seperate cottages...our cottages had our balconies facing which gave a decent view of the living room...

I was about to retire to bed when I heard loud laughters from her cottage...

I lifted my head and saw the Dr was in her room... They were having coffee...
Like ...good time with each other!

It hurt me see Bela having coffee with someone else!

That was our moment!

Our late night private moments right 😢

I huffed and lied down on the couch in balcony so I could still have a good view of her with him...

She laughed whole heartedly while my eyes poured tears non Stop 😢

I miss you 🥺 Bela 😢...

Slowly my misty eyes drowned to sleep...

***

Aadi had come with a South Indian attire for everyone including me...

I was hell scared to wear what he called veshti !!! But our Aadi had turned a pro veshti dresser 🤣

And i was ready...

Although extreme concious😃

Not used to it!!!

But then I gradually was very comfortable.

Next I was told that after dressing up so much we are not allowed to attend the function..

Instead we have an arrangement made seperately for men outside...

But then Aadi told this Seemantham is nothing but baby shower which means girls dancing and going to be fun!!!

So we all boys sneaked into the hotel's terrace area which had an awesome and clear view of entire function!!!

The function started...we saw Kuhu and Karishma dancing at a nice south indian track...

But my eyes kept looking for her.. Musky was with Isha bhabhi... So where is she...

She wasn't on the stage either...

While the melodious song began and here Vihaan and Dev started dancing while Aadi our Punjabi Tamilian waa forcefully trying to show his command on Tamil 🤦

He was explaining the lyrics of the song...

Although the song was a romantic dance number...

🎵🎶

Othaiyadi Pathayila Thaavi Oduren Aththai Peththa Poonguyila Thedi Vaaduren
(I hop on and on, along these narrow streets; I droop and daub craving fro you, my sweets)

Santhana Malai Alluthu Aala Vaasam Yeruthu En Kili Mela Sangili Pola Sera Thonuthu
(Scent of this woman makes me swoon; What must I do to be the jewelery on you.)

Sakkarai Aala Sokkuthu Aala Maalai Maatha Maman Varattumma
(You walking, talking sweetnut; let me put a ring on it?)

Kanmaniyae
(O my love!)

Sa Dha Ni Sa, Dha Ni Sa Ma Ga Ma Ga, Sa Dha Ni Sa Ga Ga Sa, Dha Pa Ga Sa Ga Ga, Sa Ni Dha Ni Sa.

🎵🎶

Suddenly Karishma and Kuhu moved aside and my eyes fell on her...

She was sitting there making a floral rangoli...

And the minute I saw her...

I had lost it!!!

I kept on looking at her...

On and on and on!!!

She looked surreal in that golden saree with the jasmine flowers in her hair ...the small red bindi on her forehead and the posture she was sitting to decorate the rangoli...

It automatically came out of my mouth...

'My Goddess'
Not a second I could take away my eyes from her...

While the song continued...
(Listen audio)

🎶🎵

Palamurai Neeyum Paarkaama Pona Irumbukku Mela Thuruvena Aana
(I am invisible to your eyes; Like rust on iron, my longing grows with time.)

Usura Unakkae Nendhu Vitten, Irunthum Nerunga Bayanthu Kitten,
(I will give up my life for you. My love; And yet, I am scared to make the move.)

Uyirae Uyirae En Uyirae Haan, Ulagam Neethan Vaa Uyirae,
(My heart, my universe, my whole life! You are my everything, please be mine.)

Manasellam Kannadi Odaikatha Panthadi, Vathaikatha Kannae Kanmaniyae,
(My heart is fragile as glass; Don't you play your ball games)

🎵🎶

And the next minute Kuhu pulled Bela to dance....

She lightly moves her waist and danced gracefully...

While all the time I wasn't much interested in the song...

I now asked Aadi...

'Aadi... What do you mean by Uyire Uyire Yenn Uyire?'

To which he smiled and said...
'Life my life ...you are my life!'

I don't know why when she danced I had smile on my lips and tears in my eyes...

I felt a gush of Sufi love!!!

May this is when they call you see god in your love...

I am married to a goddess ❤️

I kept walking helplessly from the terrace to garden area ...

Like she was pulling me like a magnet...

Just when I was about to enter the function...

Dev pulled me by my shirt...

And took me back...

'Dude why are you acting like you are whipped!!! Stop!!!' he said...

While I looked at Dev and said...
'I don't know... maybe because I am ..'

I had tears in my eyes...

He took me to the garden area...

And I fell on the grass breathing heavily and closing my eyes...

With smile on my lips and tears flowing from my eyes...

She was magic ❤️
