Next morning,
Aditi was sitting in the living room.
Shikha : veer kaha hai?
Aditi : he's getting ready for office, waise toh ghar par hi rehne wale the par important meeting aa gayi.
Dadi : par aaj toh monthly checkup ke liye jaana hai na.
Aditi : haa dadi, ananya ke saath chali jaungi, uska bhi toh check-up hai, veer ki meeting nahi hoti toh wohi aane wale the.
"Are you guys nuts, how the file got corrupted, try to retrieve it, I am coming...!!!"
Aditi : dad don't get shocked, it's your son in law, bohot hi kharab mood mein hai subah se, office jaana padh raha hai upar se aaj unke employees unka woh side dekhenge jo woh log sapne mein bhi dekhna pasand na kare, aur aaj mera check-up bhi hai, everything got toll on him.
Veer came down.
Veer : good morning mumma, good morning dad, mumma can you go hospital with aditi?
Shikha : haa kyu nahi.
Aditi : veer ananya aur siddharth bhaiya hai mere saath.
Veer : I know, par agar koi zarurat padi toh.
Aditi : veer I can handle myself.
Veer : I know how much you can handle yourself.
Aditi : dadi....
Dadi : enough, baccha hone wala hai dono ka lekin baccho ki tarah ladna bandh nahi karenge, aditi take shikha with you, and veer come home soon.
They nodded.
Aditi got up and went to the room pouting angrily, he sighed.
Ishaan : veer office jao, we'll handle her, abhi uski favourite chocolates dunga, mood thik ho jayega.
He nodded.
Dadi : veer try to stay home as much as possible, usse abhi tumhari zarurat zyada hai.
Veer : I know dadi, maine workload bohot kam kar diya hai, par kuch situations mein jaana hi padta hai, main jaldi aa jaunga, mumma agar koi zarurat ho toh call kijiyega.
Shikha : don't worry, tum jao late ho raha hoga.
He nodded and left.
***********************************
Aditi stepped out of the doctor's cabin, feeling a mixture of relief and excitement, everything seemed fine.
Just as she was thinking about this, shikha looked up from her phone with a concerned expression.
Shikha : sab thik hai na.
Aditi : It was fine, but the doctor said I need to be a little more careful. I’m in my seventh month now.
Shikha : That makes sense. You need to take care of both yourself and the baby, let's go home now.
Aditi : siddharth bhaiya aur ananya kaha hai?
Shikha : Ananya was feeling a little weak, so they went home.
Aditi : Is Ananya okay? I hope it’s nothing serious.
Shikha : Yes, she’ll be fine. It’s just normal pregnancy fatigue. But don’t worry, call her afterwards.
She nodded.
*******************************
They were in car,
Aditi : itne dino baad hospital aayi, bohot miss kar rahi hu main apne patients ko mumma, maine veer se kaha bhi ki main baad mein chutti le lungi but he...
Shikha : baccha he's worried about you, tumhari pregnancy shuru se healthy nahi thi, mata rani ki kripa se sab normal hai, par chinta toh rehti hai na.
Aditi : I understand mumma, but he behaves like I am the only woman getting pregnant.
She giggled.
Aditi : what's so funny?
Shikha : jo naye naye father banne wale hote hai na woh aise hi hote hai, protective and possessive.
Aditi : papa bhi the...
She closed her eyes regretting asking this question but she couldn't stop herself.
Aditi : I am sorry mumma...let it be...
Shikha : it's okay, the answer to your question is, haa woh bhi aise hi the, lekin uske peeche intentions alag the, unhe beta chahiye tha, isiliye meri care karte the, khud sab monitor karte the, isiliye nahi ki unhe meri koi parwah hai.
Aditi : I am sorry mumma.
Shikha : no baccha, waise toh tumhare papa ne aisa koi kaam nahi kiya jiske liye unhe appreciate kiya jaaye, par haa ek kaam kiya hai jiske liye main unhe dil se thank you bolti hu.
Aditi : kya?
Shikha : unhone tumhari shaadi veer se karwayi.
She smiled.
Aditi : haa mumma iss baat ke liye toh main bhi unhe thankyou kehti hu, kuch toh accha kiya unhone humare liye.
Shikha : ek baat kahu.
She nodded.
Shikha : tum ishaan ko dad kyu kehti ho, papa kyu nahi.
Aditi : aisa nahi hai ki maine koshish nahi ki mumma, I tried but, mujhe woh zakham yaad aa jaate the, isiliye main unhe kabhi papa nahi keh paati.
Shikha : it's okay, he's happy that you accepted him.
Aditi : kabhi kabhi sochti hu, ki agar dad jaise insaan humari zindagi mein hote toh kitna accha hota na.
Shikha : mata rani jo bhi karti hai woh acche ke liye karti hai, now stop thinking too much.
She nodded.
********************************
He entered the room and saw her sitting on the bed, surrounded by soft pillows. She was deeply absorbed in a book, her fingers gently caressing her baby bump.
The warm sunlight streamed in through the window, casting a golden glow around her. She looked peaceful, and he nodded couldn't’t help but smile.
Veer : Hey..!!
he said as he sat beside her on the bed. She looked up from her book, her face lighting up with a smile.
Aditi : How was the meeting?
Veer : Forget that. How was the checkup? What did the doctor say?
his concern for her and their baby was taking over his thoughts.
Aditi : I am fine, Veer. The doctor just said to take rest as much as possible and referred to some exercises. Overall, it’s fine.
she assured him, her voice calm and soothing. He let out a sigh of relief.
Veer : I am sorry, baccha. I couldn’t go with you today.
Aditi : it's okay, don't worry, you're looking tired, get freshened up and take rest.
He nodded, suddenly she shrieked making him panic.
Veer : what happened, are you fine, let's go to hospital.
She chuckled.
Veer : why you're laughing.
Aditi : your baby is just like you, troubling me, baby is kicking.
He chuckled and caressed her baby bump, he also felt the kick and felt nostalgia hitting him, it's the best feeling in the world.
Veer : mumma ko pareshan mat karo baccha, aap bahar aa jao uske baad saath mein pareshan karenge.
Aditi : oh, teaming up.
Veer : of course, meri princess meri team mein hogi.
Aditi : veer are you sure ki hume princess hogi.
Veer : jo bhi hoga humare liye humari zindagi hoga, but yes my personal wish is for a princess, but don't worry, prince bhi hoga na toh he'll be my pride.
She smiled.
He kissed her forehead.
