Si..dh..ar..th..", screams Sana. "Wh..at..at.. what happened? Are you ok?.are you..alright??", Sidharth wakes up worried. "What happened?", he asks, cupping her face. She makes a pout, "Ice cream." Sidharth confused at the answer, scratches his head, "What?" Sana holds his t-shirt,"I want to eat ice cream now. Cookies and cream flavour." Sidharth slams his palm on his forehead, "You were screaming because you want to eat ice cream? Time pata hai tumhe. It's 2:30 baby. I will get you ice cream in the morning. Now please sleep. I am really tired." Sana fake cries,"Noooo.. Sidharth I want to eat now. Please yaar cookies and cream ice cream layo na. What itna request kar rahi hun phir bhi itna attitude! I hate you." "Baby abhi kahan milega that cookies and cream ice creams?", he asks. "Tumhare Puchku ko bhook lagi hai go na..", she coaxed. "Puchku? Kahan se latiho yeh sab naam?", he asks. "Dimag se..Uffo! Go na.", she says. "Dimag? Do you have that?", Sid says smiling sheepishly. Sana squints her eyes and pulls his hair as he screams, "Sana.. Ahaa.. leave yaar..sorry baba.."

"Arey kya ho raha hai?", asks Sumitraji as she enters the bedroom hearing the noise. "Dekhona Maa, mujhe chocolates khani hai but this khadoos is not going..Ammaa..pani puri..", she says in a crying tone. Sumitraji says,"Sid go na beta, get her what she wants." Sidharth now even more confused, "Ice cream or pani puri or chocolate? What exactly do you want to eat? Maa yeh ladki kuch thik se bole toh na. Sometimes she is telling she wants ice cream, sometimes she is asking for rasmalai, then chocolates and now pani puri. I am going nuts." Sumitraji starts to laugh, "This happens in this time. Go get everything. Jao.."

Sana sits on the bed holding a tub of ice cream, licking the spoon full out of it. Chocolates lay on the bed and pani puri had already been consumed. Sidharth sits in front of her smiling as she puts the spoon inside the ice cream and extends her hand to feed him. He shakes his head,"You eat." Sana smiles and continues eating. She puts the tub away and says, "Puchku na is making me desire for such things at these odd hours.. sorry.." "Sorry for what?", he asks. "For making you go out at this time..", she says with a pout. Sidharth pulls her cheek and says,"Anything for my Puchku and mom..anything.." Sana giggles,"So you accept this name. Puchku." "No..It's just that till we know who is coming, we need to give a name. So Puchku is..funny but cute..just like you. So I am okay with it..for now..okay..", he says. Sana takes a bite from Dairy Milk bar and says, "I know we will have a boy and I will name him and you will have to accept it.." "Acha! You seems overconfident sweetheart. Naam toh main hi rakhunga..", he says picking up the ice cream tub.

"Si..dh..ar..th.."
"Now what? You need something else now or what?"
"Yes.."
"What now?"
"P.."
"Pizza? I am ordering it. I can't go now. I am really tired."
"No..not pizza but poems..Say a poem now."
Sidharth slams his forehead,"Seriously. Now you need to hear poetry? Now? Waah!"
"Yes..please bolo na.."
"Poetry is not ice cream that I will buy from the shop. Let me think.."

"Meri pagal wife mujhe tujhse pyar hai.
Teri shokhiyon pe jaan nisar hai.
Tere sweet tortures ko,
Main hans ke jhelun.
Tujhe khush dekhne ko,
Zameen asmaan ek kar lun.
Tu hamesha yunhi muskurati rahe
Main tujhe pyar karta rahunga.
Tu bas mujhe todha sone de,
Main chocolates, ice cream tere liye lata rahunga."

Sana stares at him and Sidharth starts laughing. "Yeh kaisa poem tha?" Between his laughs he says,"Mere dil ka haal tha my sweetheart." She hits him on his arm,"Kitne gande ho. I hate you..", she says. He pulls her close and kisses her on her cheeks, "No you don't hate me, you love me. And I love you too my mad wifey.."

"Hey why you are crying?", asks Sana. "No... no..", Sidharth touches his face to find that he indeed is crying. He wipes his eyes,"I.. I.. didn't.. '' Sana clutches his hand and smiles. Both look back at the screen that shows the black and white moving image. They are at the doctor for their first sonogram. The doctor had pointed at a hazy spot on the screen as the fetus. "Puchku.", Sana had whispered. Then they got to hear the most melodious sounds, soft thumps of the little heart. Sana lying on the bed was elated, her face was bright and her eyes big looking at the miracle they have created. Sidharth on the other hand was speechless, experiencing an unique feeling that he was having at that moment. A constant smile is stuck on their faces during the whole doctor's appointment.
