"Aljun !! I am your princess."

Arjun turned and kissed her forehead, "yes!! You both are my princess take care of your daughter," he rubbed her tears with his thumb and walk out.

Arun lay down next to Neel "something is not right with Nishi" he murmured to himself.

"You are right Arjun, many things," Neel rolled in his side of bed popping on the elbow.

"You are still awake?" Arjun turned and asked.

"Yes" Neel shrugged.

"Nishi don't look fine, she is not the same Nishi, I mean," Arjun paused.

You have also changed, you are not same person any more, I am closely reading you since you came back from London, you use to be different..Arjun," said Neel.

"Time has changed me," Arjun said and there was steel in his voice.

Neel turned and sat facing Arjun "Bhai(bro), Forget about your past your pain, begin a new life, new you and live today for Nishika for family for us and for yourself. Bring that Arjun back who was stud who never failed." Neel said his voice full of confidence, confidence in Arjun that he will bring back the older Arjun.

Arjun sigh closing his eye, "But I failed...failed to take care for everything ...which is mine."

"They are still with you... bit broken but still with you," Neel look at Arjun, "bhai pick your self up and start again, you know Di had changed for us for her family she laughs.. Smile... just to make us happy ,today I saw real di after so many years she was in her real self," Neel lay back on his side of bed, "Start over again, Arjun!! You are getting a second chance."

Arjun walk back to his bed room, a smile touched his lips, Nishika was snuggling beside Nishi, with one hand she was rubbing her cheeks  and her other hand was holding Nishi's shirt, as if in fear that her mommy will go away. Nishi's eyes were closed. 

Arjun slowly walks to them and sat on the edge of the bed looking down at his princess. Nishi felt his presence beside him, she slowly opened her eyes to say something but he put his finger on her lips, "shh" he whispered but it seems his daughter had felt his presence too, She stirred and slowly rose up smiling, "Daddy" she called throwing her hands , Arjun smiled and scooped her up and nuzzled her soft cheek and walk inside the bathroom after some moment both daddy and daughter came back they both were smiling at each other. Nishi heart filled with love to see his best friend smile.

"How do you know?" Nishi asked folding her leg Indian style. Nishika ran to Nishi and laid her head on her lap, Nishi smiled brushing a stray of hair from Nishika cheek.

"I am her Dad Nishi," He said proudly, "You will understand when you will have your own kids" Arjun said glancing at Nishi, who just stared at him with unreadable emotion's. Deep down something is hurting her he can feel.

Nishi uncomfortably shook her leg, he notice her tightly fitted jeans so he walk to his wardrobe and pulled out some neatly folded shirts "here wear it, don't sleep in this tight jeans," he looked down at her legs, "they don't look comfortable."

Nishika pulled out white shirt "momma wear this, dad love this one" she cheekily smiled.

"No.. not that white one, wear the black" he suggested he don't want her to wear those transparent white shirt, "then why I picked that white with the other one's" he thought, "what I was thinking?" he murmured to himself.

"Da..ddy momma beautiful in white" she said with big smile.

"Yes I know" he said without thinking, he glanced at Nishi who was looking at him with shock, "I mean... black... Nishi ? wear... that... black one" he said and looked away.

Nishi nodded and went inside the bathroom and changed into Arjun black shirt.

 Arjun had to swallow twice, Nishi was looking amazing in his shirt. Nishi felt his gaze on her and when she looked up to meet his eyes he looked away and laughed, "Minnie mouse" he said throwing his head back.

Nishika cutely looked at her dad who was laughing, her dad never laughs,she had never seen him laughing. "Daddy" she flung into his arm "always laugh," she twisted her head lightly with tears in eyes, " you look good when you laugh," she said, a sob escaped her lips, Arjun felt that his daughter was about to cry so he changed the topic.

"Nishika" he tickled her, "when we were kids your mommy use to wear my shirt."

She lightly smiled but  her eyes were still fixed on her Daddy, Nishi nodded, "your daddy use to call me Minnie mouse," she pouted , Nishika giggled "Minnie mouse why?" she giggled again. Arjun snaked his hand around Nishi and pulled her closer, "Your mommy is still Mini" he stood straight to his full height and said.

Nishika giggled again rubbing her eyes with her palm,"Time to sleep little princess" he laid her on bed and within a minute Nishika was deep slumber.

"You love her so much, She is my baby my life, Once you will have your own baby you will understand," he paused and looked at Nishi, "you were never a career oriented girl you always wanted to be housewife, mom."

"Time changed everything" she said and slightly smiled at Arjun who was sitting beside Nishika.

"But you can fulfil your dream now," he walk to her side and sat beside her pulling her comforter, unknowingly touching her bare legs , a goose bumps rose just mere touch of his finger, "Its right time Nishi to have your own family , Do you have a boy friend?" he whispered looking deep into her eyes as if looking into her soul.

"Good night" she pulled the comforter tightly as if his touch, his eyes were doing something to her.

"Good night, I promise I will never ever leave you again," he said kissing her forehead, "my Minnie Mouse" he said with laughter filled voice.

"Please don't break your promise this time" she said and cuddled beside Nishika.

"I promise" he said and walk out of the room, after 3 years he is feeling happy and that just due to Nishi, "she has magic she always brings smile on my face" he turned and look at his princesses , "I promise you both I won't let this magic 🌌go away from my life."

Hi my lovely friends , Here a teaser😍 for you guys 

"Come dad will help you dress up" he took Nishika in his arm, "I thought you were helping her in shower, never thought that you will join her" he said to Nishi and looked at her, the thin material of his shirt was clingy and soaked, "thank God that he didn't let her wear his white shirt" Arjun thought his eyes were still fixed on her.

"Daddy" Nishika voice broke his trance.He kneels down "run princess daddy is coming in a minute," he lightly pushed her out.

Nishi was feeling awkward standing all soaked in his shirt, "I need to" he put his finger on her lips and  snaked his arm around her, "I know exactly what you need," he whispered and with one hand he turned the shower, "a bath" he winked and walked out.
