Finally it was day before Ram's birthday. Priya made a beautiful three tier cake and decorated it artistically for her husband straining herself. Around midnight, after decorating their living room, Priya shouted standing outside their room loudly which made Ram to wake up from his sleep. Listening to her shouts, Ram came out in jiffy thinking Priya is in some kind of trouble, only to get startled with party popper's sound with lights getting on. He was surprised with the arrangements, all wished Ram a happy birthday and asked him to cut a cake. Before cutting the cake, Ram softly scolded Priya for shouting as he got little terrified listening to her shouts but smiled when Priya held her both ears and mouthed sorry.

Bri: okey now I'm excited to see what Priya got for you. Open quickly Bhai.

Priya: no open it when you are alone.
Bri: Priya this is not fare. Even we want to what you got for him.
Priya: may be you can ask him tomorrow.
Bri: Priya
Adi: leave na jaan,

After some chatting and munching on the cake, all called it a night.
In their room, Ram was waiting for Priya little excitedly to open her gift.
Once Priya locked their room, Ram hurriedly started opening the gift. He sat rooted to his place with tear filled eyes seeing the gift she had given. Ram looked at her for affirmation while Priya nodded in yes with tear filled eyes. Ram held the pregnancy test kit which showed his wife is pregnant close to his heart and cried freely.

Ram got up from his place and ran to his wife. He picked her and twirled her softly while Priya slapped his shoulder asking him to leave her. Ram mouthed a sorry and hugged her tightly. Ram knelt before his wife and softly talked to his baby caressing his wife's stomach. Priya listened to his conversation and smiled with happy tears.
Ram: did you go for checkup? What did the doctor say?
Priya: I didn't go. I just tested using this kit two days back. I want to visit the doctor only with you.
Ram: you should have told me earlier Priya.
Priya: did you like the gift?
Ram: are you kidding? Nothing can be equal to this. I'm going to be father. I'm excited but nervous as well. Will I be a good father Priya?
Priya: you will be the world's best father.
Ram smiled listening to her and pecked her forehead
Ram: and our baby is very lucky to have this best mother. You should always love me first.
Priya: aap bhi na.
Priya smiled listening to him. Ram picked her in his arms carefully and took her to the bed.
Ram: I'm serious.
Both laid in the bed taking about their impending parenthood. Ram smiled seeing his wife who slept inbetween her talks. He can't sleep a wink in excitement. He sat there looking at her angelic face happily. He tried to sleep but sleep for faraway from his eyes, so he just sat there remembering how Priya's arrival changed his life for good.
