Karan pov

Today Gowen was discharged  from hospital,he was all good no more nightmare my child has already suffered a lot. I am driving and my cute little Gowen is sitting beside me
"Dada is Vivi coming?", I invited Dr Vivan on dinner as a gratitude or maybe I am feeling something for him ."Yes baby he is behind our car".

As we arrived, Gowen squealed "Da da da!" (Daddy's home!) and flailed his tiny arms. I chuckled, lifting him out of the seat. Dr. Vivan smiled, ruffling Gowen's curly hair.

We went inside, Vivan followed us, and I couldn't help but notice the way he interacted with Gowen. He was so gentle, so caring, and it was clear that Gowen adored him.I prepared dinner while Dr. Vivan played with Gowen, making silly faces and sounds. Gowen giggled, "He he he!" and hugged Dr. Vivan's leg. I watched, my heart swelling with love for my child and gratitude for the kind doctor.

As we sat down for dinner, Vivan joined us, and I felt a sense of gratitude towards him. He was becoming a part of our lives, a part of our little family.Dr. Vivian asked Gowen, "So, little one, how's my favorite patient doing?" Gowen babbled "Pops Pops" (I'm hungry!) and dug into his food. Dr. Vivan laughed, feeding him bits of vegetable.

I exclaimed "So sorry Vivan , Gowen didn't mean it I am so sorry he is calling you Pops","No need to apologise Mr Karan I am fine with it ,he is just a kid he loves me so he is calling me Pops and I kinda liking it so don't worry". Hearing this from Vivan is making me fall for him like how can someone be this kind ,good and handsome too.

I noticed the way Dr. Vivan's eyes crinkled at the corners as he smiled at Gowen. I felt a flutter in my chest, my secret crush on the doctor growing stronger.I watched them, feeling a sense of warmth in my heart. This was what I wanted for Gowen, a happy, normal life, surrounded by people who loved him.

As the evening ended, Dr. Vivan helped me put Gowen to bed. As we tucked him in, Gowen cooed "Wuv you, Da da" (Love you, Daddy) and "Wuv you, Doctow" (Love you, Doctor). Dr. Vivan's face softened, and he whispered, "Love you too, little one."

Karan's heart skipped a beat as their hands touched while adjusting the blanket. Dr. Vivan's gaze met his, and for a moment, they just smiled at each other.

As the evening drew to a close, Vivaan got up to leave.I walked him out, feeling the evening's warmth linger. "Thanks for coming Vivan ,Gowen really loves you and your company with us made him happy."
Dr. Vivan turned, his eyes sparkling. "Anytime, Karan. You two are my favorite duo."My heart fluttered again, and I smiled, feeling a connection I couldn't ignore.

As Vivan left, I returned to Gowen, scooping him up in my arms. "You're so lucky to have Vivan in your life, baby sweetheart," I said, my voice filled with emotions.

Gowen looked up at me, his eyes shining with happiness. "Dada, I wov Pops."

I smiled, feeling a sense of warmth in my heart. "I know, baby. I love him too."
