Three months later (on delivery day):

The family members are very excited and ready to welcome the little one. The house has lit up, and there are only positive vibes around. Maya, Riya and Atharv made rangoli in the living room to welcome the little angel. Everyone is so happy except one person, Elliot. He is hell scared, alltough it's his second delivery but still. He is sitting alone in the room with his overthinking thoughts.

"Baby relax, everything will be fine trust me!" Marco enters in. "Relax? Seriously?" Elliot looks at him. "You won't understand babe leave it." he looks down. Marco stands silent. "Mumma see what I made." Roger walks in. They look at him and see a chart paper on his hands. "What is this?" Marco asks. "Welcome to the world, baby! - I wrote this for the baby." Roger replies. This made Elliot smile, he pulls him closer and kisses his forehead. "You are the best brother in the world." he says. "We also did something.." Eleanor runs in with others. "What?" Marco asks. "Look here.." Eleanor shows a paper with some scribble on it. "I drew the baby." Siya says. "I coloured it." Christine says. "I helped him.." Ayushi says. "And what you did princess?" Marco looks at Eleanor. "I ordered them... to make it." she replies.

Elliot starts laughing. "Oh my boss baby, you all are so cute now I'm going to cry." he says. Marco puts the picture on the table. "Are you ready then?" he asks. "I don't know." Elliot replies. Marco sighs. "Roger go and ask uncle Atharv, is the car ready or not." he orders. Roger nods and goes downstairs. "El please don't take stress baby.. we all are with you." Marco says. "We should not waste anymore time, let's go.." he takes his hand. "But... aahh.." Elliot shouts. "What's wrong?" Marco panics. "Shit! My water just broke!" Elliot replies and starts screaming. "Oh fuck!" Marco immediately makes him stand taking him downstairs. "Baby, don't hurt my mumma.." Eleanor cries. "Hurry up please.." Elliot shouts. Marco, Atharv and David help him to get in the car. "Fastttttt" Elliot cries. "Yes yes.. saale kutte start the car.." Marco shouts. Atharv immediately starts the car they rushes towards the hospital.

In the Hospital:

The doctor immediately takes him inside the OT. "Kate, can I come in too? I don't wanna leave him alone please." Marco requests. "Fine.." Kate agrees and enters in. Marco wears the OT costume then goes inside. "It's okay El, I'm here." he comforts him. "Elliot please push, I know you can do it." doctor Kate says. Elliot pushes hard then stops. "I can't do this please.. fuckk" Elliot screams. "You can baby you can." Marco rubs his back. "Why didn't you wear the condom that day?" Elliot hits Marco's arm. "I'm sorry but right now you don't have any options so please push." Marco replies. Elliot pushes again then stops. "Just one more please." Kate says. Elliot takes a deep breath and gives the final push.

The room fills with the baby's crying but suddenly something falls down. "What happened?" Elliot asks. "Uhm... your husband just fainted!" Kate replies. "Oh, leave him.." Elliot looks away. "By the way congratulations, it's a girl!" doctor says. She puts the baby close to Elliot and he kisses the newborn's cheeks. "I love you.." he whispers.

An hour later :

Marco enters the cabin as soon as he comes back into his senses. "It's a girl." Maya tells him. Marco almost cries when he sees the teeny tiny babygirl laying on her crib. He looks at Elliot who is in deep sleep right now and kisses his forehead. "You did it El, I'm so proud of you." he whispers. "And you fainted!" Atharv says from behind. "I'm sorry.." Marco holds his laugh. He goes near the crib looking at his little angel. He carefully holds her fingers then kisses them. "She is so soft." he whispers. "David and I will be back with the kids okay? Call me if you need anything." Atharv says. Marco nods looking at his daughter.

A few minutes later:

Elliot wakes up and finds his husband sitting next to him. "Are you okay?" he asks. "I'm fine and you?" Marco holds his hand. "Yeah I'm fine too." Elliot smiles. They looks at the sleeping beauty next to them. "Well, why did you faint there?" Elliot asks. "It will be better if I don't say it know?" Marco replies. "Got it." Elliot smiles. "Hat's off to the all the mothers out there." Marco says. Elliot laughs hearing his words.

"Where is my sissy?" Eleanor walks in. Siya, Roger and other two enters next. "Sshhh.. she is sleeping right now." Marco says. "But.. I want to see her." Eleanor looks at him. "Sure." Marco picks her in his arms and goes near the crib. "She.. she is so tiny." Eleanor says. "My turn now." Siya pulls his jeans. Marco puts Eleanor down then picks Siya. "I love you sissy." Siya says. Elliot gets too emotional seeing all his kids together like this. Marco then picks Roger in his arms. "She is beautiful." he says. "Oh she is?" Marco smiles. "Yeah.. all my sisters are so beautiful." Roger says happily. Christine and Ayushi sees the newborn next one by one. "She is my best friend now." Ayushi says. Marco nods. "She is cute." Christine says.

Eleanor runs towards Elliot. "Mumma can I hold her?" she asks. "Not now, she is so tiny right now. You can once we are home." Elliot replies. "Yayyyyy..." Eleanor starts jumping in excitement. "Congrats El my champion." Lisa enters in. She hugs him tightly then goes to see the cutie. "OMG, she is soo cute... and yeah welcome back to newborn stage again you two." she teases. "Thanks." Marco says and they laughs. The baby wake up crying. "Why is she crying daddy?" Eleanor asks. "She needs her mom that's why." Marco gives the baby to Elliot. "When will she go home?" Roger asks. "Tomorrow.." Marco replies.

Elliot tries to put his newborn to sleep again while the other munchkins are looking at them. "Alright kiddos, time to go back now." Maya comes back. "Good night and take care okay?" Elliot kisses their foreheads one by one then David takes them outside. "Ma, Lisa you too go back now and take some rest. I'm staying here tonight." Marco says. Lisa hugs Elliot then Maya and they leaves.

At night :

Marco and Elliot are having dinner while the little one is sleeping peacefully. "Don't you think she kind of looks like me?" Elliot smirks. "Yeah whatever." Marco rolls his eyes. "So that's mean, she is going to be a mumma's girl then?" Elliot laughs. "Shut up, that's not gonna happen." Marco says. Elliot squeezes one of his cheek to tease him. "Can I tell you something?" Marco looks at him. "Yeah.." Elliot looks back. "I'm about to do something crazy in next week so I just need your permission." Marco says. "Don't tell me you are going to marry someone.. if yes then I won't mind to kill you sir." Elliot jokes.

Marco shakes his head. "No meri jaan, I will never do that." he says. "Then what is it?" Elliot asks. Marco clears his throat. "It's related to Daniel." he replies. Elliot gulps putting the spoon down. "Don't worry, I won't let him hurt you again I promise." Marco says. "Hmm.." Elliot looks down. "But please don't do anything that will affect our kids. I don't want that bastard to harm my babies." he says. "Don't worry about that, I know how to deal with him." Marco says. Elliot smiles and starts eating again.

They finish their meal. Elliot lies down on his bed and Marco lies down on the sofa. And as expected, the little one wakes up right that moment. "Oh how I can forget! Come here you teeny tiny angel." Marco holds her in his arms and starts roaming around the room. Elliot cutely watches them. Five minutes later she falls asleep again and Marco puts her in her crib. He slowly slowly moves back and lies down on the sofa without making any noise. Elliot is already sleeping like a doll.

At midnight:

The room echoes with the newborn's crying. Marco immediately wakes up and picks her in his arms. "Give her to me." Elliot whispers. "No baby, you sleep I can handle." Marco says. He roams around the room with the baby patting her back. "Oh finally!" Marco whispers. He puts her back to the crib and lies down on the sofa again. "Oh how I missed these things.. thank you God!" he mumbles. Marco looks at Elliot and blows a kiss. He closes his eyes and falls asleep again.
