Vaada Ye Hai Ki Hum Nahin Aayenge Baar Baar

Agar tum Na Hote...🌹

"Mr and Mrs Kapoor congratulations,you are expecting twins..."

These words from my doctor are still reverberating in my ears as I stand on our balcony, thinking about this sudden shift in our lives...I am whining,restless,moody,  clingy , irritated, infatuated and what not...all over the place but hats off to my man, I could never imagine a clumsy body like him,to be so disciplined with my routine..At times, I have troubled him intentionally,just to seek some reaction but no,he is hell bent on winning the best ' Dad to be title ' after 'Best son','best son -in- law, brother-in-law ',Best 'friend ',and well 'best husband and lover' for sure....ufff, earlier I used to boast about me being so organised,stoic, composed person but now this man has demolished that image,the delusion is gone....I am nothing in front of him, God knows what superpowers he possesses..?
