Preeti's point of view

"Good morning ma'am." Our maid Nancy greeted me when I walked into the kitchen.

Nancy has been working for Kapoor's since five years. She is in her mid thirties but still look young and beautiful.

She is piling the carrots for juice.

I usually wake up early before everyone and cook breakfast for everyone. Nancy taught me many American dish and Siddharth's favourites so I can cooked his favourite.

"Good morning Nancy.. How many time I told you, not to call me ma'am.. call me Preeti..I'm younger than you." I said while taking out the carton of egg and freezing bacon from the fridge.

"But I mentioned everyone in this house Sir or madam. Siddharth sir will be angry if I called you by your name." She said while looking at me and give me small smile when I put the egg carton and bacan at the kitchen counter.

"I don't know why everyone is afraid of him. He is also a human like every normal person." I said while taking out eggs from carton and put the pan on stove.

I cracked two eggs shell and poured the egg yokes and pour egg white in a glass bowl.

"I don't know I just afraid of him." She said while putting the bacon on the heated pan and pour some oil over it.

"He is like a coconut. Hard from outside but soft like feather from inside." I whispered while grinning to myself.

I mixed some herbs and butter in the mixture and mixed it properly and poured it in a hot pan.

"Mmmm...It smells so good." Nancy said while sniffing the aroma of French style-omelette.

"What are you making?" She said while looking at the pan.

"Siddharth's sir favorite...?" she asked me while looking at me confusingly.

Then realization hit her and she looked at me with wide eyes and huge smile crept on her face.

"He came..?" She asked me still with a wide eyes and huge smile.

I smiled while blushing and nodded my head slowly.

"When...?"

"Last night.." I whispered while sprinkling some spices on omelette.

"But I was in the hall till late night. I didn't see him coming?" She asked me while putting the fruits in a juicer.

Siddharth went to Australia for two weeks in a business trip. In those two weeks Siddharth and I didn't talk too much because his busy schedule and time difference and I missed him really much.

He was supposed to come two days later but I got shocked to see him beside me sleeping like a baby. He is sleeping while cuddling me.

"He came late at night. I don't know when he came I was sleeping then. I saw him in the morning sleeping beside me." I whispered while tucking the hair behind my ear.

"Mmmm...good morning bhabhi." Keerti said in her sleepy voice while putting her chin on my shoulder.

Both brother and sister are same. They both liked to put their chins on my shoulder.

"Good morning princess..sleep well?"

I asked her while patting her cheek softly.

"Hmmmm....what are you cooking?" She asked me while looking at the pan over my shoulder.

She pulled back and looked at me when i turned to her.

"Bhayi's favorite.." she said while wiggling her eyebrows.

She still teases both of us. Even sometimes she caught both of us making out.

I felt warmth on my cheeks.

"Stop teasing the poor soul keerti." Mom said while walking into the kitchen.

I walk to her and touched her feet.

"Stay blessed and give us a grandchild soon." She said with a smile while caressing my head.

She also know how to turn my cheeks more pink.

"I should go and wake Siddharth up." I said.

"Oh! Dear No..He already awake. I just saw him in his gym clothes." Mom said while taking out milk from the fridge.

"Bhabhi will you Please make me pasta for breakfast. I just saw it in my dream and I want to eat it." Keerti said while taking out an apple from the fruit basket.

"Sure.."

Mom also leaved the kitchen after keerti.

I took a cooking omelette and served it in a plate with cooked bacon.

"Nancy..will you Please taste it so I can know how it is." I said while giving her a plate.

"Sure.." she said while taking a plate from me.

He took a bite of omelette with bacon.

"Mmmm...you are doing well." She said while appreciating my cooking.

I know it's not perfect but I am working on my cooking so I can cook favorite dishes of my family. I only know cook Indian food but I am learning many other dishes so I can cook for them.

"I will add some onions and tomatoes with indian twist when I will serve to him." I said to her with a grin.

"Sure ma'am.." she said with a smile and took another bite of the breakfast.

I huffed and shake my head when she again mention me ma'am.

......

"Good morning Dad.." I touched Dad's feet when he entered to the living room in his jogging suit.

"Good morning beta.." he said while touched my head and gave me blessings.

"Where is everyone..?" He asked me, looking around the hall.

"Keerti is in her room and Mom is talking to Nate aunty on phone." I said while giving him a glass of water.

"Yeah.. How could I forget as a day of wedding getting closer my wife is going to turn into a shopping freek." Dad said while drinking the water.

"What did you Akhil?" Mom said while coming to the living room.

"Nothing.. I was saying to Preeti that you should go to shopping today. Only four days left for your second son's wedding." Dad said while chuckling nervously.

I suppressed my laugh looking at Dad turned into a pussycat in front of his wife.

"Yeah only four days left for Nick and Emily's wedding. I and Nate are going to shopping today with them. We have to finalize many things today only." Mom said while looking at her phone.

Dad rolled his eyes on her and looked at me and mimicked her.

I put my hand on my mouth to suppress my laugh.

"Preeti beta you also coming with us for shopping. Emily requested me to bring you with me." Mom said looking at me.

"Bhabhi..." keerti called me while joining us.

We both turned to her when she is walking toward us with a hair brush in her hand.

"Bhabhi Please help me to choose the dress. Today some famous designers from Europe is coming to see my collection and if they will like my designs it will be a great kick to my career. My future is depends on today's meeting. Please help me to choose a dress for me. I want to look perfect." She said in one breath.

Nervousness is clearly visible on her face.

"Why didn't you tell this us before?" Maa asked to her.

"I just got a call from Serra. This meeting was supposed to be next week but they scheduled it earlier and I am freaking out right now. Mom you make me more nervous by asking a questions." She said while taking a deep breath to calm herself.

"Don't worry I'll help you." I said while taking a hair brush from her hand.

"Preeti beta..Where is Sid. I heard, he came back last night. I need to discuss something with him." Dad said while looking at me.

"Akhil, don't turn my house into your office and what is this...My baby came home after two weeks instead of letting him spend his time with his wife, you are ready to give him more work."

I opened my mouth to say but Mom cut me off.

I blushed on what just mom said.

"Mom he is no more your baby now. He is a grown man." Keerti said while rolling her eyes.

"So what he is still my baby." Mom said.

"But where is he?" Dad asked again.

"Here..is my boy." Mom gestured towards the gate.

We all turned to the gate.

Siddharth was standing at the door.

He is wearing a black and grey hoodie with dark lower. I can't see his eyes properly because of his hood cap on his head. His both hands are in his hoodie pocket and he didn't wear anything under it. His hoodie zipper is little lower giving me the full view of his bare chest.

He removed his hood cap and walked to us and touched mom and Dad's feets. He didn't even look at me once.

Did he angry on me?

Sweat is dripping from the side of his face indicating his workout in gym.

"Good morning Dad...Good morning Mom." he kissed mom on her cheek.

"Good morning Son." Mom said while caressing his cheek.

"Go get shower and get ready. Till then Preeti will make the breakfast for you." Mom said.

His eyes turned to me and gaze locked but soon he averted his gaze from me.

He nodded his head and leave from there without looking at me.

I felt a ping of hurt in my heart.

Why he is angry on me?

"Bhabhi let's go. I'm getting late." Keerti said, dragging me to her room while I'm looking at Siddharth's retreat figure.

.......

I prepared the dinning table for breakfast.

Mom and Dad came and sit on their sits.

Dad opened the lids of serving bowl and look at the dish.

"All Sid's favorite." Dad said with a smile while looking at me.

I lowered my head and I felt warmth on my cheeks.

It's three months of our wedding but I still blushed hearing his name.

"Yup.. after eating continuously hotel food for two weeks, he deserves his favorite breakfast." Mom said while serving food to Dad.

"Bhabhi... do you made pasta for me."

Keerti said while taking her sit beside Mom.

"Yes.." I nodded my head and open the lid of pasta bowl and serve her.

"Where is Sid. Isn't he ready yet." Mom asked me.

I opened my mouth to say something but one of our maid interrupt us.

"Preeti ma'am Siddharth sir is calling you in your room." After saying this she leaved from there.

"Go beta.. He might be need your help." Mom said with a smile while looking at me.

"No, Mom he might be want his morning kiss which he couldn't get for two weeks. " keerti said while eating her pasta.

My cheeks immediately turned red hearing her. She never leave a chance to tease both of us.

"Keerti now a days you are talking to much." Mom scolds her.

"Preeti beta you go.." Mom said looking at me.

I nodded my head and walked to upstairs towards our room.
