Chapter 99 - Chapter 99 — Dangerous Love, Baby Mode, and Emotional Cyclones

Mochi finally fell asleep on her bed 😴Still smiling 😊Still mumbling, "husband…" 💍💤

Laddu gently tucked the blanket around her 🛏️Then escaped like a prisoner slipping out of jail 🏃‍♂️💨Silent. Careful. Victorious.

He reached the kitchen 🚶‍♂️Poured himself a glass of water 🥛His hands were still shaking from the drunken disaster 🎢😵‍💫

Laddu (whispering to himself):"My life is a cartoon…" 🫠📺

Mother quietly walked in, leaning against the counter 👩‍🦳🧍‍♀️

Mother:"You have an apartment, right?"

Laddu nearly drowned himself 💦😨

Laddu:"Yes… why?"

Mother narrowed her eyes suspiciously 👀

Mother:"You want to… shift there with Mochi?"

Laddu stared at her like she had suggested jumping into a volcano 🌋😱

Laddu:"You want me to shift with her?!"

Mother shrugged 🤷‍♀️

Mother:"You two are close.""And she clearly trusts you."

Laddu raised both hands instantly ✋✋

Laddu:"No. Absolutely not. Impossible. Never."

Maya entered behind Mother, rubbing her eyes 😪Already smiling like she smelled chaos 😏

Maya:"Why not?"

Laddu pointed down the hallway 👉Where Mochi was sleeping like a peaceful threat 😴⚠️

Laddu:"Because she wants to beat me!"

Mother blinked 😐

Mother:"Beat you?"

Laddu nodded dramatically 🎭

Laddu:"Your daughter lifts me like a plastic bag 🛍️""She kicks like an earthquake 🌍💥""She screams 'husband' in public 📢💍""She tried to KISS me at the door 😭💋!"

Maya exploded laughing 🤣🤣

Maya:"So? You like her."

Laddu slammed the glass down 💥🥛

Laddu:"That is NOT the issue!"

Mother crossed her arms 😤

Mother:"Then what is the problem?"

Laddu leaned in, whispering like this was classified information 🕵️‍♂️

Laddu:"In front of you… in front of the family…""She has courage 😤""Power 💪""And alcohol strength 🍷🔥"

Maya wiped tears of laughter 😂

Maya:"And?"

Laddu whispered the most terrified sentence of his life 😰

Laddu:"What will happen if I am ALONE with her?!"

The kitchen froze 🧊Mother froze 😶Maya froze 😳Cousin froze mid-snack 🥨❄️

Three seconds of pure silence ⏳⏳⏳

Then—

Mother burst out laughing so hard she grabbed the counter 🤣🤣

Mother:"Oh my God… this boy is scared of my daughter!"

Maya clapped 👏👏

Maya:"HE SHOULD BE!""She's like a tank with long legs 🚜🦵!"

Cousin nodded seriously.

Cousin:"If Mochi wants something… nothing survives ☠️"

Laddu nodded like a man who had accepted his fate 😔

Laddu:"Exactly.""If I shift with her…""I will not live long ⏳""My neck, my back, my arms— all broken 🩻💀"

Mother wiped her eyes, calming down 🧻

Mother:"Laddu… she loves you."

Laddu froze 🧍‍♂️

He stared at the floor.

Laddu (quiet):"I know…"

Mother:"And you love her."

Silence.

He didn't answer.He didn't deny.

He stared at the water glass 🥛His heart fluttering like wings trapped in a cage 🕊️💔

Laddu (soft):"But your daughter is dangerous…""…Physically."

Maya smirked 😼

Maya:"And you still follow her like a puppy 🐶"

Laddu covered his face 🤦‍♂️

Laddu:"That's the problem…"

Mother smiled gently and placed a hand on his shoulder 🤍

Mother:"Shift or don't shift…""But don't run from her."

Laddu sighed deeply 😮‍💨

Laddu:"I'm not running…""I'm hiding."

Maya:"Same thing!" 😂

SECOND AWAKENING — BABY MODE ACTIVATED 🍼😵‍💫

Upstairs…

Mochi rolled over in her sleep 🛌Mumbling softly:

Mochi (sleep-talking):"Laddu… come here… husband…" 💍💤

Laddu's soul left his body for the tenth time today 👻💀

The house grew quiet…Too quiet 😨

Everyone gathered in the living room 🛋️Whispering about Mochi's volcano-level drunk behavior 🌋🍷

Then—

👣 Footsteps.

Everyone froze.

Mochi came down the stairs 🚶‍♀️

Hair messy 🌀Eyes half-open 😵Expression dangerously soft 😶‍🌫️Drunk aura glowing like pink mist 💗🌫️

She sat on the sofa 🛋️Stared forward.

No blinking.No breathing.

PURE DANGER.

Candy whispered 😰

Candy:"She's awake again… second form."

Maya nodded gravely.

Maya:"I fear this form."

Then suddenly—

Mochi inhaled deeply 😮And shouted:

Mochi:"BABY!!!COME HERE!!!" 📢🍼

The house stopped 🛑

Candy screamed into her pillow 😱Cousin choked on air 🤧Mother clutched her necklace 😨Father whispered, "Oh God no…" 😵Maya collapsed laughing 🤣🤣

From the kitchen doorway—

Laddu appeared like a criminal caught in headlights 🚔😳

Laddu:"…Did she just call me baby?"

Mother:"Yes."

Maya:"GO TO HER. SHE SUMMONED YOU."

Laddu shook his head violently ❌

Laddu:"No! No no no!""She is in dangerous romantic mode!"

Mochi shouted again, louder 🔊🔥

Mochi:"BABYYYY!!COME.HERE!!!"

Laddu nearly dropped his glass 🥛💥

Laddu:"She called again!"

Cousin:"You're doomed. Accept it ☠️"

Laddu walked forward slowly 🐌Like entering a lion cage 🦁

Laddu:"M-Mochi… did you call me?"

She turned.

Eyes soft 😶Lips pouty 😗Voice dripping with affection 💕

Mochi:"Yes.""Baby.""Come here."

Laddu's knees almost failed 🫠

Laddu:"I'm… not your baby…"

Mochi glared 😠

Mochi:"WHO ELSE WOULD I CALL BABY?!""THE FRIDGE?! 🧊"

Laddu:"Okay okay I'm coming—!"

He sat instantly 🛋️She climbed onto him like a sleepy cat 🐱Rested her head on his chest ❤️

Mochi:"Good.""Now stay."

Laddu whispered:

Laddu:"I think she wants to adopt me…"

Mother:"She already has." 😂

Maya:"Baby Laddu is real!" 🍼

Candy:"BABY LADDU YESSS!!" 🎉

Father covered his face 🤦‍♂️

Father:"I cannot witness this anymore…"

Mochi wrapped her arms tightly around Laddu 🫂Locking him in.
