Anushka's Pov:
I tightly grip the railing on the side of the bed, pushing my head harder into the pillow. The pain strikes through my body as I bite my lip, holding the urge to scream out and make it stop.
"Oh my gosh," I sigh out in relief as the contraction ends and the pain slows down, making my tightened muscles relax. I lay back on the back, retying my hair in a ponytail.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'm back," Prabhas runs in through the door as it slams behind him. He leaves just for a few minutes to go to the restroom and of course, right then of course I get one of the worst contractions ever.
He kisses my hand with the iv in it, carefully holding it up to his face and rubbing it on his cheek. I give him a weak smile as he moves my hair out of my face, looking at me worriedly. He is more stressed out at this point than I am.
"Do you want any water," He asks, reaching out for the tall blue bottle on the table a few feet away from me. I nod and take the bottle from him, bringing it up to my lips and taking a few small sips.
"Can I have chapstick too please," I ask with a low laugh, running my tongue over my bottom lip which is chewed and chapped. He lets go of my hand to reach into my purse and hand me the peppermint lip balm in my purse. I swipe it across my lips twice before handing it back to Prabhas.
"U can use it too," I tell him as he walks back towards my purse. He slides it back into my purse before bending down to kiss my lips, extending the kiss by cupping my cheeks in his hands. I move my hands to hold the hair on the back of his head, playing with the choppy ends. I feel some of the chapstick from my smooth lips, go onto his as he presses his lips against mine with a little more pressure, taking even more of the breath of my mouth.
I pull away, a red hue not settled on my cheeks as I smack my lips together, feeling the loss of smoothness as I did before.
"I don't need to use it," He replies with a childish smirk on his face, making me roll my eyes.
"Pichi," I slap his arm softly trying to keep the growing smile off my face. He opens his mouth widely, dramatically holding where I hit him.
"That really hurts," He pouts, rubbing his arm and looking at me accusingly. I shake my head at his dramaticness, wondering how I put up with this crazy man everyday. But a smile is still present on my face, and I secretly thank the universe for letting me put up with this man everyday.
Prabhas's Pov:
I rub Anushka's head with my thumb, smiling down at the small human in her arms, wrapped in pale blue cotton.
"He's so perfect," She says, her voice holding a dreamy air as her eyes stay on the baby. She pushes the blanket back a little more so his rounder face shows with closed eyes. His long eyelashes are hovering over his chubby cheeks and his button nose has the smallest black birthmark on it. It's so small and faded you can barely see it unless you look at his face from up close.
"He looks a lot like Krithi did when she was born," I say, leaning down to kiss Anushka's head and pushing back her damp hair.
She nods before turning her face and lifting it up so our eyes make contact, "Will you bring her inside now?"
"Of course." I reluctantly leave from Anushka's beside and walk outside. I'm met with the scene of Anushka's parents sitting side by side with Krithi standing on their legs. They are each holding on of her hands up as she shakes her legs around giggles.
"Krithi," I walk towards her with my arms open and my mouth wide. She starts bouncing up and down as I lift her out of her grandparents arms and into mine. I kiss her cheek and reach out to fix the pink butterfly clip in her hair. She has two high pigtails which are holding her hair tightly in place with hair clips pushing back the loose pieces. Anushka's mom was in the room when Anushka had Anand, so she's seen him but her dad brought Krithi here so the two of them had her while we finished everything up with the doctor.
