Emergency?

Payal's expected date of delivery was nearing thus Khushi made sure to be around her all the time. Akash too took leave from his work for a week now.

Arnav and Shali couple kept visiting Gupta house now and then to look after Payal.

Today was no different. Khushi made her way to Payal's room with her breakfast as she made Payal have bed rest after morning yoga.

Akash and Payal were thankful at her actions while Khushi couldn't hold her excitement of being aunt rightfully.

While having breakfast and giggling now and then, Payal felt the labour pain making everyone nervous yet happy for welcoming their new member.

Akash and Khushi rushed to the car with Payal and Khushi drove to the hospital carefully while Akash comforted his wife. Buaji and Sashi tailed them in another car while informing The jhas and Raizadas.

Here Arnav and Shyam left the office in between the meeting to reach their families while their parents left to the hospital from their mansions.

On reaching the hospital, Arnav rushed to Akash and was soon engulfed into hug by nervous Akash.

Heyy Akki shh.... Everything is going to be fine...

Ak:She was screaming in pain.... I.. I couldn't help her.... Her screams are tearing my heart Arnie...

Arnav couldn't get any words for comforting his best friend as he too knew the helplessness he would feel if it was Khushi in Payal's situation.

Buaji was drinking water every now and then to call her heart beats while Shyam and Dev calmed Sashi.

Ratna and Radha were eagerly waiting for the baby while Arav and Anirudh did the documentary works of the hospital. All were there for each other and all felt blissful together.

Here inside the OT, Khushi couldn't hold back her tears on hearing her jiji's screams yet was determined to help her.

Jiji.... Comeon.... Push a little jiji....please jiji.... Just few more minutes...

Khushi murmured while Payal clutched her sister's hand tightly unable to bear the pain. Khushi sent a quick prayer to her devi mayya and soon gained herself to let Dr. Gupta take the lead.

Soon everyone heard the baby's cry and everyone's tears knew no bounds. Akash jumped in happiness and soon was engulfed into hug by his best friends. Ratna and Radha hugged Buaji, who was not able to control her happy tears.
Sashi took a deep breathe in relief while Dev and Arav patted his shoulder. Anirudh joined his hands and thanked his God for his greatness.

Khushi held her niece tenderly in her arms while her eyes had the tear film. Soon nurses took the baby for futher treatments.

Khushi rushed to her jiji who was now relived from the pain and kissed her forehead.

It's girl jiji.... Thank you... Thank you jijiii...

Payal cried in happiness while Khushi again pressed a tender kiss on her jiji's hairline.

Khushi , after making sure Payal was comfortable and was taken care by her staff, made her way out of the Ot with her niece in her Arms. Though being masked, her eyes radiated her happiness and same was transferred to everyone present outside.

Khushi carefully gave Her niece to her jiju, who was holding her as if she was made of glass.

It's girl buajii....
Khushi exclaimed while everyone gushed in happiness.

Ak:Khush... Take her back to you... I might hurt my baccha....

Akash whispered while pulling his crying daughter close to his chest.
Khushi giggled in between her tears while shaking her head.

Nahi jiju... You topped in baby care classes... We trust you..

Soon everyone took a glance of their new world and Khushi took her back to her mother.

After few hours of shifting Payal to another room, Khushi allowed them to meet the mother and daughter duo.

Akash was the first to barge in and soon rushed to his wife.

Ak:Sorry jaan.... It was painful.... And I couldn't even help-

Pa:Offo.... It's nothing in front of my baccha... Calm down love..

Khushi gave the couple their privacy and made her way out where she was already engulfed by her buaji.
Khushi returned the hug with same zeal as she knew what her buaji was going through..

Offo buaji... Ab toh nani ban gayi phir bhi Aasoon khatam nhi hote aapki...

Khushi teased, earning a smack on her head. Sashi too joined the family hug and soon everyone congratulated each other.

Arnav did congratulate everyone but Khushi could bet he was being unusually quiet.
She again got busied in her works while the family members visited Payal and baby and blessed them.

Being a safe pregnancy, no much complications occurred making Khushi sigh in relief and soon after a week Gupta house was decorated as a new bride for welcoming the Apple of their eyes.

Buaji did Aarti of the new family while Akash bent to take her blessings. Khushi excitedly brought the plate filled with water of Vermillion and soon the entrance wall of the gupta house had the small footprints at display.

Soon Khushi guided Payal and the baby to the ground floor room for rest while buaji, Ratna and Radha busied themselves in kitchen for preparing the family dinner.

Arav, Sashi and Dev took their places in living room while busying themselves into future talks.
Anirudh sat on the couch while his heart felt contended with the warmth of his extended families.

Here Shali, Arnav and Akash made their way to the room yet fearing about Khushi's reaction for she was being overprotective when it came to taking care of her jiji and niece.

Khushi glared at them while having her neice on her laps to make her sleep while Payal chuckled at their nervousness.

Pa:Stop glaring at them Khush.... You all come have seats..

Ok... But I would appreciate pindrop silence..

Everyone did a salute pose at agreement making Khushi's lips stretch to her eyes while she again poured her attention to her niece.

Akash went to his wife, who snuggled into his chest and laid her head on his shoulder.
Shyam and Anjali went to nearby chairs and Shyam pulled his wife's chair close to his and had her warmth around him.

Here Arnav gulped at the scene of Khushi with her niece and slowly made his way out of the room to the balcony making Khushi frown at his actions.
