Till Death Take Us A Part

chapter 13

It's odd without him. I don't know why I'm thinking about him.  May be I'm used to that beating daily. I want to raise my baby strong. I can do that.

I will stand for her the baby no matter what. I rubbed my belly. It's been few months since I left him. I hope he is happy with his new partner.

Suddenly arun came with hot coffee. What are you thinking lyra.

Hmm nothing.

Ok, drink this.

Thank you arun.

Arun- Don't thank me you are like my sister . You know I don't have a family. In college you took care of me. You never shared your problems with anyone. But you supported others if they have any problems.

You are like my sister Lyra. I like to serve you. I know if I need something you will do the same. So don't think anything. You will be the world best mom.

Lyra - I smiled and squeezed his hand. Now come I will cook the breakfast.

Arun - no madam please go and get ready I will prepare.

Lyra - ok sir. I will and went for a bath.
When I returned there is a delicious breakfast.

I ate fully. Later left to work. I met my gynecologist. She given me a date.

Later........... One month..

I'm in rounds I think my water broke. I called the nurse. She holded me took to the operation ward.

She informed to arun. He immediately came to see me. My doctor arrived. He asked doctor he will also scrub in.

I requested, she accepted. After few minutes finally I listened to my baby cry..

Arun is the first person. I want to share with him but I can't call. I Don't want him to know about my child.

It's a boy Lyra..

He is soo beautiful ..... I caressed his cheek. They discharged me later next day. The baby is healthy.

Arun - ok Lyra I applied for maternity leave. So please rest. I will do rest of the work.

Lyra - these nine months I saved as much salary. I need save it for his future. And arun is such a good friend. He is everything I never found this much affection.
