Siya stepped down the staircase walking towards the living room, while checking for the time in her cellphone. It's already late for her in the morning, they have to start with their work preparing for one of their meetings which is going to be conducted at afternoon. 

The previous day brought full of happiness for Siya, this day she has marked in the calendar as it will be unforgettable for her. Those happiness only made her to stay awake till late night, dreaming and planning their upcoming life, Ram and Siya's life. Right from how these nine months will pass, to what will be the name of the baby if it's a boy or a girl, Siya almost thought everything but didn't finalized with anything for now. It was not possible for her without Ram, she was really missing him to the most. Anyway, these excitements were the reason that sleep was away from Siya. And when at late night it strikes her to have a rest not for her but for her baby, Siya tried to sleep at that time. She have to change her carelessness things now, Siya have already determined this thing in her mind. 

Siya looks startled at the arrangements done in front of her. The living area where the girls gathers for their office work for most of the time, that couch and table looks different today. There were lots of pillows and cushions arranged around the couch, a water bottle with a plate of freshly cut fruits placed on the table, a soft woolen shawl placed on the couch with a small folding study table on which her laptop is kept open. Siya looks at each and everything with her surprised eyes, when her sisters came near her. 

MANVI- so... Dii..? Ready to start for the day.?

Siya turns at her right side to witness the three girls happily smiling at her. 

SIYA- Manvi... Urmila, Shruti... What is all this.?

Questioned Siya again turning towards the arrangements first and then at her sisters.

URMILA- these things are for your comfort. Because now we have to take your more care.

Said Urmila taking the shawl in her hold and at the next moment she wrapped the piece of cloth around Siya's back, to cover her completely. 

SHRUTI- dii we are not stopping you from any work. Office, ghar ka kaam, do whatever you used to do before. But this time with great care, koi carelessness nahi chalega. 

Shruti points towards Siya which made her to giggle at her sister's scoldings. 

MANVI- since yesterday we have started with our research work. What should be done and what should be taken care about for a pregnant woman. 

Said Manvi forwarding a glass of juice to Siya who took that silently in her hold with a smile.

URMILA- aur aapke koi bahane nahi chalenge, you have to grow up chinku's mother. 

Siya narrowed her eyes and before she ask about that Urmila made her to drink the juice holding her hand.

SIYA- chinku's mother.? What is that.?

Finally Siya could question her after having two three sips from the glass.

URMILA- aapko baby boy hone wala hai na, we got that feeling. That's why chinku's mother. 

Siya started laughing at Urmila's words and her sisters keep on smiling at her, moreover at their attempt to keep Siya happy. As told by Manvi, they have been doing "research" for Siya's health when they got to know that Siya undergoing her treatment as well, needs to be more happy and worry free in this pregnancy, and hence they have started with their day one to take care of their sister.
