HUMSAFAR [Completed✅]

13. Family Moments

As Ahaan placed them on the bed, Vihaan, with a wide grin, looked at Ahaan and said, "Papa, you’re great!"

Ahaan, teasingly, couldn't help but comment, "Okay, tell me one thing -do you two just eat all day or what?"

Ishqi playfully replied , "We eat as much as normal humans do, but if your energy is running low, what can we do? Right, Vihaan?"

Vihaan giggled and enthusiastically agreed, "Yeah, Mumma!"

The two shared a high-five, their laughter filling the room.

"Alright, time to sleep now," Ahaan said, signaling the end of their fun.

With that, they all tucked in for the night.

The next morning, Ishqi was the first to wake up, and she found herself admiring fondly at both Ahaan and Vihaan, who were still fast asleep. She gently stroked their heads, her heart swelled with warmth and love.

"They’re sleeping so peacefully," she thought to herself. "It feels like that I am finally having a complete family."

Moved by the moment, she leaned in and kissed both their foreheads, cherishing them. And she started again adoring them. Her stance  was broken by Ahaan’s teasing voice."Hum dono ko aise ghurkar, nazar lagane ka iraada hai kya?", he spoke, eyes still closed but clearly awake.

[Are you planning on staring at us all morning and putting the evil eye on us?]

Startled but amused, Ishqi smiled. "When did you wake up?"

Ahaan opened one eye and grinned. "Since you started your staring contest and showering us with kisses."

"Then why all the drama?", Ishqi asked playfully.

"I wanted to see how far you'd go with taking advantage of us while we’re asleep," Ahaan teased.

Just then, Vihaan stretched and yawned, rubbing his eyes as he woke up. "Are you two fighting again?" he asked, his voice still sleepy.

Ahaan and Ishqi immediately responded in unison, "No, beta, we’re just talking."

Vihaan gave Ishqi a morning hug. "Good morning, Mumma," he said sweetly before planting a kiss on her cheek. Then, he suddenly noticed the time and panicked. "Oh no, Mumma! I’m late today!"

Ahaan, always ready with a joke, added, "All your love and kisses are just for Mumma, huh?"

Vihaan, now in full rush mode, replied, "Papa, I’m late! I already gave Mumma a kiss, so you can get one from her!" He then headed towards the bathroom, leaving his parents smiling.

Ishqi stood up, ready to get on with her day too. "I should get ready as well," she said, starting to move away.

But before she could take a step, Ahaan caught her hand and pulled her back. "Where do you think you’re going? Didn’t you hear what our son said?"

Knowing exactly what he wanted, Ishqi leaned in and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. Ahaan closed his eyes, enjoying the moment, but Ishqi, feeling playful, suddenly bit his cheek instead.

Ahaan’s eyes flew open. "Ouch! What was that?"

With feigned innocence, Ishqi replied, "That was a kiss, of course. What else?"

Ahaan, not one to let her off easily, smiled mischievously. "Oh, messing with me, huh? Just wait, I’ll show you!"

He grabbed her again, and started tickling her with his stubble. Ishqi burst into laughter. "No, Ahaan, no!" she squealed, but it was too late.
