Embracing The Unplanned

84-Breakfast Dosa

Sunday morning,
Sehgal House,

Aayat groaned as the sunlight hit her face,she tried to block it with her palm but no use!

She sighed and snuggled closer to the pillow trying to hide her face in it, hugging it tightly.In return her body was squeezed by a pair of arms and she sighed deeply and continued to sleep.

Hriday chuckled at his wife's antics.She was a morning person,but on Sundays she was a different Aayat,who didn't like to do anything except for staying in the bed.

But alas that couldn't be done now because she was married and lived with her in laws,plus she had a naughty baby girl and a dog too,along with her always attention demanding husband.

"Good morning"Hriday whispered to her as he placed a small kiss on her hair once she opened her eyes.

Aayat didn't say anything and just kept leaning on his chest trying to wake up now.

The door of their bedroom opened and the sound of a tiny pair of feet approaching them caught their attention.

Hriday smiled looking at his daughter,who was still sleepy and walking towards them clutching her favourite Peppa pig soft toy in her arms.

She tried to climb the bed from Aayat's side and Aayat helped her climb up and Iti instantly snuggled into her mother's embrace,both the mother-daughter duo falling asleep quickly.

Hriday smiled looking at the two of them,they both were the biggest sleepyheads he knew.

He let them sleep as he quietly got down from the bed and made his way towards the bathroom to freshen up.

Once he came out of the bathroom he poured Carrie his food and left the bedroom letting his wife and daughter sleep.

Upon entering the kitchen he found Bela and the chef already in the kitchen.

Does this lady ever get out of the kitchen?

He shook his head at his thought and wished her a good morning.

"Aap kabhi iss kitchen se bahar bhi nikalti h?"Hriday asked and Bela smiled hearing that.

"Dosa banana h aaj,sunday h aur Maahi ki farmaish h,isliye kitchen mein hu"Bela said as the batter was already ready and the sambar was cooking while the chef was making the coconut chutney and the potato filling was already made.

"Hum aapki madad kr dete h"Hriday said as he stirred the sambar and then tasted a lil and his widened in surprise,it was absolutely delicious.

For the past months he has been eating the food cooked by his biological mother and to say that it was heaven would not be less at all!

She was a marvelous chef!

Whatever she cooked was simply delicious!

"Kesa h?"Bela asked.

"Bht hi badiya"Hriday said and Bela smiled hearing that.

"Tujhe pasand h dosa?ya kuch aur khayega breakfast mein?"Bela asked.

"Hum khaa lenge,aapko kuch aur banane ki zarurat nhi h....Iti ko bht pasand h dosa"Hriday said and then added something at the end and Bela smiled hearing that.

After some time,

The whole family was sitting on the breakfast table waiting for the breakfast to be served.

It was 10am now and they all were really hungry.

"Aur kitna time?badi maa bhook lag rahi h ab"Abeer said shouting so that his badi maa who was in the kitchen could hear him.
