Dreams Of Laughter: Sidhu 's Journey

CHAPTER - 3

Sidhu rises from bed, ready to tackle another day of preparation for the upcoming comedy competition.

As he steps into the room, he finds Sam and Sia snuggled under their blankets, lost in the blissful embrace of sleep. With a gentle touch, Sidhu brushes a strand of hair from Sia's face, his heart swelling with love for his precious children.

"Wake up, my little stars. It's time to rise and shine," Sidhu whispers, his voice soft yet full of warmth.

Sam stirs first, blinking sleepily as he rubs his eyes. "But Daddy, it's still dark outside," he protests, his voice groggy with sleep.

Sidhu chuckles, leaning down to press a kiss to Sam's forehead. "That's because the sun is still sleeping, just like you. But we have a big day ahead of us, so we need to get ready," he says, his tone gentle yet firm.

Sia groans, burying her face deeper into her pillow. "But I don't want to get up, Daddy. Can't we just stay in bed all day?" she whines, her voice muffled by the pillow.

Sidhu smiles indulgently, knowing all too well the allure of staying snuggled up in bed. "As tempting as that sounds, sweetheart, we have places to be and things to do. Now come on, let's get dressed and have some breakfast," he says, coaxing Sia out of bed with gentle persistence.

With a mixture of grumbling and giggling, Sam and Sia reluctantly shuffle out of bed and into the living room, where Sidhu has laid out their clothes for the day.

Despite their protests, they soon find themselves dressed and ready to face the day, their laughter filling the air as they share a playful morning routine.

As they sit down for breakfast, Sidhu serves up bowls of cereal with a side of fresh fruit, chatting animatedly with Sam and Sia about their plans for the day.

After breakfast, Sidhu ushers Sam and Sia out the door and into the car, their backpacks slung over their shoulders as they wave goodbye to their cozy apartment.

As they drive to the school, Sidhu listens to Sam and Sia chatter excitedly about their day, their laughter echoing through the car like music.

With a sense of pride swelling in his chest, Sidhu drops Sam and Sia off at the school gates, watching as they disappear into the bustling crowds of children.

As he drives away, a sense of anticipation courses through his veins, knowing that today marks another step closer to achieving his dream of performing on the grand stage of Paris.

With a determined glint in his eyes, Sidhu steers the car towards the rehearsal studio, his mind already buzzing with the jokes and punchlines that await him.

For today, like every day, is another opportunity to chase his dreams and make his children proud. And with that thought guiding him forward, Sidhu sets his sights on the stage, ready to shine brighter than ever before.

Taking a moment to gather his thoughts, Sidhu approaches the stage with a mixture of nerves and excitement. The spotlight casts a warm glow around him as he adjusts the microphone, his heart pounding in anticipation.

"Alright, let's do this," Sidhu whispers to himself, his voice a mixture of determination and trepidation.

With a deep breath, Sidhu launches into his routine, his jokes and anecdotes flowing from his lips with practiced ease. He moves across the stage with a dancer's grace, his gestures and expressions adding depth and humor to his performance.

But as the rehearsal progresses, Sidhu's confidence wavers. A joke falls flat, eliciting only awkward silence from the imaginary audience. Sidhu's heart sinks as doubt creeps into his mind, threatening to derail his performance.

Krithi, who has been watching from the sidelines, approaches Sidhu with a reassuring smile. "You're doing great, Sidhu. Just relax and be yourself. You've got this," she says, her voice a beacon of encouragement in the sea of uncertainty.

As the rehearsal draws to a close, Sidhu feels a sense of accomplishment wash over him. Despite the challenges and setbacks, he has persevered, giving it his all and leaving nothing on the table.

As he exits the stage, Sidhu's heart swells with pride. He may not have been perfect, but he has poured his heart and soul into his performance, and that's all that matters.

At 12'oclock,

Sidhu eagerly heads to the school to pick up Sam and Sia. As he arrives, he spots them among the throngs of children, their faces lighting up with excitement as they catch sight of him.

"Daddy!" Sam and Sia exclaim in unison, rushing over to him with outstretched arms.

Sidhu scoops them up in a tight embrace, his heart swelling with love at the sight of his children. "Hey, you two! How was school today?" he asks, his voice filled with warmth.

"It was great, Daddy! We had art class and I made a painting of a big circle!" Sam exclaims, his eyes shining with pride.

Sia nods eagerly, her curls bouncing with enthusiasm. "And I played with my friends on the playground. We pretended to be superheroes and saved the world from a giant monster!" she adds, her imagination running wild.

Sidhu chuckles, his heart brimming with joy at their innocent tales. "Wow, you two had quite the adventure! I can't wait to hear all about it at home," he says, his smile widening.

As they drive home, Sam and Sia chatter animatedly about their day, their laughter filling the car with warmth and happiness. Sidhu listens with rapt attention, soaking in every word as if it were a precious melody.

Upon arriving home, Sidhu leads Sam and Sia to the bathroom, where he helps them wash away  and change into comfortable clothes. As they settle into the living room.

"So, tell me everything," Sidhu says, settling onto the couch beside Sam and Sia. "What was the best part of your day?"

Sam and Sia exchange excited glances, their faces lighting up with anticipation. "The best part was when we played with our friends on the playground!" Sam exclaims, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Yeah, and I got to be the superhero who saved everyone from the evil villain!" Sia adds, her voice tinged with pride.

Sidhu laughs, his heart swelling with love for his children. "Well, it sounds like you two had an amazing day. I'm so proud of you," he says, pulling them both into a warm embrace.

As they snuggle together on the couch, Sidhu feels a sense of gratitude wash over him.
