After she calms down.
Abhishek: You need treatment. Main aaj hi baat karta hoon Dr se. Tumhe pehle batana chaye tha mujhe. Anyways, next time don't hide these. Especially anything related to health.
Vaishnavi nodded. She looked at his face. He saw her and gave her a genuine smile. She reciprocates the same.
Vaishnavi: Can I sit?
Abhishek nodded. He helped her in sitting. She hissed twice because of the pain but sat properly. Abhishek kept a pillow behind her back for support.
Abhishek: Comfortable?
Vaishnavi nodded. She saw her hair looks messy.
Abhishek noticed her facial expressions. He chuckled.
Abhishek: Wait! Let's make braids.
Vaishnavi (surprised): You know how to?
Abhishek (raising his collar): Born talented.
She giggles. He started making her hair braids. When Sumedh and Siddharth came.
Sumedh: How are you feeling now?
Vaishnavi: I am good.
Siddharth: Avneet aa rahi hain Reem ke sath. Reem woke up and was crying. They will be here any moment.
Abhishek nodded.
Within a few minutes. Avneet and Reem came. Reem's eyes were puffy and red because of the lack of sleep and crying a lot.
Abhishek took her in his arms.
Reem: Papa...
Abhishek: Reemi ko kya hua? Miss kiya papa ko?
Reem nodded with a pout. Abhishek chuckled.
Reem (pointing at Vaishnavi): Maa...
Vaishnavi opened her arms.
Abhishek: Maa ko pain hain na princess. To masti nahin karna, okay?
Reem nodded. Abhishek made her sit on the bed. She quickly crawls towards Vaishnavi. She stood in front of Vaishnavi with her support only. Keeping both hands on Vaishnavi's cheek. Vaishnavi held her.
Reem (blowing on Vaishnavi's forehead): Maa uh uh uhuh??
Reem blew on Vaishnavi's forehead which was covered with bandages.
Vaishnavi (smiling): Abhi theek ho jayega. Reemi hain na.
Reem giggles, nodding.
Vaishnavi: Baby ne kuch khaya?
Reem pouted.
Vaishnavi: Abhishek, please bring mashed potato or banana.
Avneet: I was trying to feed her milk.
She pouts. Reem giggle. Finally, this little soul again started being happy.
Vaishnavi: She drinks milk only before sleeping. Other than that she eats. Like when I put her in bed and hand her a milk bottle. She sleeps drinking it.
Avneet: Oh! That's why...
Vaishnavi nodded. Reem sat on her lap. Abhishek went to buy for reem. Sumedh's phone rang.
Sumedh: Guys mujhe meeting ke liye jana hoga.
Avneet (frown): Chutti nahi hai?
Sumedh: Nahin yaar important meeting hai. Mallika aa jayegi lunch leke.
Siddharth: Chill kar jaa meeting attend kar.
Sumedh nodded and left. Reem wrapped her around Vaishnavi's waist. Unknowingly Reem held the part where Vaishnavi has stitches. Vaishnavi hissed in pain. Reem got shocked.
Avneet (shocked): Reem baby hath hatao vaha se. Mumma ko pain ho raha hai.
She held Reem's hand and moved it from there.
Siddharth: You okay?
He asked as he saw tears in her eyes.
Avneet: Dr ko bulao.
Vaishnavi took a few seconds but stopped Siddharth.
Vaishnavi: I am okay... Vo sudden touch se thora pain hua but I am okay now.
Siddharth: Sure?
Vaishnavi nodded.
Avneet: Reemi dhayan se bacha. Mumma ko pain hain na.
Reem nodded. She looked at Vaishnavi and held her ears. Vaishnavi couldn't stop her lips to curve up in a smile. She held Reem's hands in her hands.
Vaishnavi (making Reem sit properly on her lap): Rimi Timi...
Reem giggles. She rested her head on Vaishnavi's chest. Vaishnavi smiled caressing her hair, adoring her cute features.
After a few minutes. When Reem was sleepy.
Vaishnavi: Reemi baby sona nahin... Papa leke aa rahe hai. Kha kar phir sona. Tab tak maa se baat karo. Batao mujhe kuch.
Reem nodded and started blabbering something in her language. Siddharth, Avneet, and Vaishnavi were understanding her words? A big fat No. But Vaishnavi was copying Reem's expression. Reem looking at Vaishnavi's expression became so excited. Reem continued her blabbering, Vaishnavi happily listening and trying to understand.
Avneet (whisper): Still you doubt Vaishnavi's love for Reem?
Siddharth was quiet. It's been only three days, he met Vaishnavi. It's too quick to decide but Avneet noticed how easily Vaishnavi is handling Reem.
Just then Rehana and Seema barged in, shocking everyone.
To be continued...
