CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

AJAY GOT INTO his car to drive back home from the hospital.

Hearing his child's heartbeat was one of the most moving things in his life. At that very moment, something had shifted in him. And when he saw the image of the ultrasound scan, he felt a fierce surge of protectiveness sweeping over him.

Suddenly, his pride, or his ego, or even his thoughts of revenge didn't matter to him anymore. The only thing that really mattered was the tiny life growing inside his wife.

His child would have to come first, before anything else. The added tension and stress when he was around Sia, must not be good for the baby.

So during the drive home, he decided to try his best to make Sia comfortable around him.

It shouldn't be that hard. Because before she had led him into the trap, he had actually enjoyed her company. Especially her dry sense of humor that most people around her didn't quite understand or get. So he decided to pursue a friendship of sorts with her again.

He and Sia arrived home at the same time. And before she could disappear into her office room, he stopped her.

"Sia, do you have a minute?"

She stopped and looked at him questioningly.

"I've decided that for our child's sake, we should start over again. I'm also going to let go of whatever you did to me in the past," he said.

She looked surprised, but didn't comment.

"We can't continue living like this. I know our marriage is supposed to be a temporary one, but we need to work out some kind of a deal between us to have a cordial relationship."

She gave him the slightest of nods.

He sighed. "That means, we talk once in a while, Sia. While I am thrilled with our chin nods, our child might not be too thrilled to see his or her parents communicating with them."

She was about to nod again, but stopped midway. "Okay," she said, finally.

"Good." He was about to go towards his room in the opposite direction, but he stopped midway when he thought of something.

"I'm leaving tomorrow morning to visit The Colonel at the village," he said. "I'll be there for a week. Would you like to join me? He has asked me to let you know the invitation was extended to you as well."

Sia looked torn. "I can't. I'm sorry. I have some important work pending today," she said.

He felt disappointed hearing that, but he nodded. "Okay. I guess, I'll see you in a week then."

Just as he was about to leave, he heard her say. "Have a safe trip, Ajay. I'll see you back home soon."

He liked hearing her refer to her house as their home. And he was determined to make it true. For their baby's sake.
