Chapter 6

Once he leaves I look over at Nandini who was peacefully sleeping resting her head on my arm, gently I scoop her up in my arms walking to the car, I buckle her in and as soon as I move away closing the door she opens her eyes

I walk to the drivers seat sitting down, buckling myself in. She looks at me with confusion in her eyes.

"Yeah?"

"What did the doctor say?" She asks

"Things you should have told me but didn't"

"Like what?" She asks

"Do I need to reiterate?"

"Please" she pouts a little

"You didn't tell me you were in pain" I mumble

her face whitens really quick before she starts to fidget with the hem of the t shirt she was wearing

"Nandini"

"I didn't know how to tell you" she whispers

"I am about to be your husband and yes I know this might be uncomfortable but you need to voice these things out"

"I understand" she mumbles

i hum driving to the mall

Nandini doesn't like shopping much because I had to pick out a whole bunch of things, basically a new wardrobe for her while she just nodded at everything. I didn't want to stay in the mall too long since nandini didn't seem comfortable so we drove home.

"Up to our room" I tell her

She nods walking up the stairs and to our room while I quickly dealt with a few things walking up to our room

I see her sitting on the bed showered, she was wearing pajama pants and t shirt, a set we bought earlier today, I actually had it all delivered as we shopped and so her side of the closet is full now, from inner wears to shoes, everything is there

She looks at me, smiling to acknowledge my presence, I smile back but I don't utter anything, instead I go to shower as well. once I was out of the shower, I saw her in the same spot as when I went to shower

"It hurts" she mumbles looking down to her hands

"What does?" I ask

"The tear, the doctor, she said it would be okay but it hurts worse than before" she says, still not making eye contact with me

"It's because she had to check so it probably got aggravated, I will give you a pill"

"Im sorry I didn't tell you, don't be upset"

"im not"

"But you look upset" she said curiously

"Im not, this is my face" I tell her

she softly yanks on my t shirt a little before she inches closer placing her head on my chest

"Im hungry" her whisper makes me smile softly

She is a child

"Yeah?"

"Hmm, elephants are in my stomach"

"What would you fancy?"

"Food"

"Obviously but what?"

"Anything"

"How do you feel about pizzas?"

"yummy in my tummy' she sings rubbing her belly gently

I smile grabbing my phone asking one of the chefs to bring up pizza which comes up in less than 30 minutes.

I watch her eat, she did this happy dance where she giggles waving her little arms around, her head bobbing a little.
