Thank you so much for the positive response on character sketch& storyline
Arindorin heres the 1st chapter

#####

Scene starts in a medium size room
A couple was peacefully sleeping on their bed
The girl's back was facing the boy's chest& he had wrapped his arm around her slightly swollen stomach as she was 5month pregnant
The girl's sleep got disturbed bcz of sunlight& she stretched her arms
She turned to face the boy& blinked her eyes for few times before finally opening them
The boy also opened his eyes

A-good morning neilu

N-good morning avu

Neil moved his hand from avni's face to her belly& caressed it

N-good morning baby
Come soon
We all are waiting for you

A-baby tell daddy that 4more months are still remaining

N-hmmm
But i cant wait to see her/him

A-toh jaake latest ultrasound ki pics dekhlo

Avni giggled while neil smiled
But neil became word on thinking how will avni react on knowing that he was going on a dangerous mission in a few weeks
He decided to tell the news just few days before leaving because if she got to know the news now itself, then she will remains sad even till the time he was here

N-avu chalo now freshen up
Phir breakfast karne chalenge

Avni nodded &neil helped her in getting up

A-neilu you are making me lazy& spoiling me

N-hmmm
Maybe
But thats bcz i care for both my big& small baby

A-im not a baby (pouting)

N-you are my first baby& i love you

A-i love you too

They shared a hug after which avni went to freshen up, followed by neil
Soon they went down for breakfast &everyone greeted them

AvNeil's room-

A-really?

N-mene tickets already le rakhi h

A-ok

They got ready& left for the theatre

*****

5hrs later-

After watching a movie &having lunch in a restaurant, AvNeil came back home As avni was tired, neil told her to take some rest

*****

3weeks went by& neil had to leave for the mission in 3days
In these 3weeks, he had spent maximum time with avni so that she can cherish them until he returned, although he himself didnt know when he will return
Avni was adjusting the bedsheet &blanket as they were about to sleep

N-avu

A-hmmm

N-come here

Avni sat beside neil but he pulled her on his lap& wrapped his arms around her

N-baby i need to leave

A-matlab?

N-i have been called back
Jab tak men waapas aunga the baby will be born

Avni's voice immediately cracked

A-neilu plz dont go
I promise i wont fuss on eating food& medicines but plz ese suddenly mat jao
I need you, our baby needs you

Neil pulled her closer &caressed her hair

N-i know you& our baby need me but my team also needs me na?
I will try my best to return as soon as i can

A(disheartened)-kab jana h?

N-3din baad

A-i will miss you alot

N-i will miss you too baccha

By now, avni's eyes had welled up
Due to her pregnancy mood swings, she was even more disheartened

A-plz mat jao na?

A-plz jaldi aana neilu

N-i promisemen jaldi aaunga

As they lay in bed, avni hugged neil tightly- in an attempt to never let him go

N-bas ye last time
Phir hum saath rahenge- like a happy family

A-ok

3days later-

Neil took the blessings of his elders, gave avni a hug& left the house

But was neil really going to return from the mission or it was the last time avni was hugging him?
