Chapter 17- When the gift of love comes into my arms

Sorry for not updating for more than three weeks as mentioned before. Since I might start a new job which my interview is on Thursday, I might not be able to post regularly. When I'm free I will send all my followers a message when I will post the next chapter. Until then enjoy this lovely update.

It's the last of pregnancy and Naira is due to have the baby on Friday. Every now on then, the baby kicks and our Kaira went to the doctors for a checkup, and when Naira gets her sonogram checked out, doctor points out that the baby high-fived, rolled over, opens its eyes and smiles, and lastly its anticipation to enter the world and call Kaira "Mumma, papa." The baby knows Kaira's voices and kicks every time when they don't speak.

These 9 months of pregnancy was just full of love, joy, happiness and anticipation. As they both went home, Naira felt uneasy. The contractions came but was light. Naira was tired and told Kartik to have a rest too.

N: "Kartik mujhe room le jao, mujhe takaan hogayi hai. Aur shayad tum bhi takaan hogayai ho haina? Tum rest karlo mera saat, mai maa bataa diya ki wo humee uta de do gante main thik he."

K: " Acha thik he, sambhaal ho Naira, tum bohot  takaan ho chukhi ho."

Kaira went to their bedroom and went to sleep. Kartik was the first to wake up and he kissed Naira's forehead and her stomach. Much to his surprise the baby kicked and this woke up Naira. But as she got up from the bed, the contractions came and her water broke. The pains, the screams grew and went through the walls. Kartik was shocked to see his wife like that and picked her up in his arms as she was due to give birth.  All the Goenkas was shocked seeing her condition and rushed her to the hospital. Kartik was excited yet felt guilty seeing Naira in this condition. Her screaming grew, tears flowed from his eyes and prayed that the delivery goes well. After five minutes they hear a babies cry and the doctor came out saying, "Congratulations , its a baby girl. Mr Kartik you can come in to see your wife and your baby."

The room was quiet and Naira was cradling the little baby girl In her arms with a sweet smile on her lips. The baby smiled looking at her, as she recognised her mothers voice. Tears fell down Naira's eyes which was full of joy. Kartik entered smiling yet having tears in his eyes. He had been waiting for this moment for 9 months and there she was. Right in his eyes, being cradled in her mothers arms. Now it was the time for the baby girl to be cradled in her fathers arms whom she had craved to see from a long time now. Yes she was a daddy's girl and she loves her papa. Kartik took her in his arms and saw a beautiful soft, angelic face looking at him with a smile. Without listening to her fathers voice, she knew and recognised him as her father.

K: "Hey baby girl, I'm your papa, I have been waiting for you for 9 months now. You are so beautiful my child. Mamma and papa loves you a lot. You recognised me without me hearing my voice. Look Naira, I'm telling you she's a daddy's girl. Thank you." He looked towards Naira with a big smile on his face gesturing a thank you.

N: "Kartik she looks like us completely. She has my face and your eyes. And also she has your hair. Im proud to call her ours." She kissed Kartik on the cheek and she too kissed the baby on her cheek.
K: This is the symbol of our love, we both made this beautiful girl and marked her into our lives. She will always be loved by her mumma pappa and her sweet grandparents and also everyone. I love you Naira for this gift. " And kissed gently kissed his wifes lips as a mark of a thank you.

Kartik came out with the baby girl so that he could give Naira some rest. All the Goenkas and Singhania's stood with a smile and tears in their eyes. Such a gentle, beautiful baby that was cradled in everybody's arms with no cries. Dadi took the baby into her arms and smiled. She said "Mera Kittu ki kitti. Bohot pyaara bachaa hai, bilkul uski mamma ki tarah. Badhai ho Kittu, thu thu thu."
K: "Thanks Dadi."
Naitik: "Mera princess ka beti, mai kahi nahi sakti ki mai kitna khush hoon, par lekin agar Akshara hoti, wo shayad bohot khush hojati. Jo bhi ho, Akshara bohot khush abhi, wo dekh rahi hai." And he kissed the baby girl on her forehead.
Manish: "Aree waah kitna pyaara baby hai. Bohot cute hai, mujhe yaad jab Kittu chota tha. Bilkul is taraah lagti thi." Tears formed in his eyes remembering when Kartik was born. "Par ab mera Kartik chota nahi hai. Ab woh papa banchuki hai. Congrats my son."

As everyone cradled the baby girl into their arms it was now time for the baby to be fed. Sweets were given by Naitik but he was sad inside, Akshara wasn't here to witness her granddaughter. Everyone consoled him and comforted him. It wasn't the time to be sad, it was a time to rejoice with happiness on the arrival of a baby girl.

Naira fed the baby as Kartik looked on with a smile on his face. He decided to stay with her the whole night as he would discharge Naira and his baby girl tomorrow. The baby was born on the day Kaira consummated their marriage, what better gift could that be. Naira cooed the baby to sleep but the baby went to sleep without a single cry. Naira fell asleep alongside the baby and Kartik wished her goodnight with a kiss. He looked at his phone and looked at the picture of where he took of his baby being cradled by Naira. He couldn't be any happier, and there he was falling asleep on the couch with a big smile on his face.

Precap: Kaira come to the house with the baby to be welcomed in a grand style. Father daughter moment between Naira and Naitik. Kartik dealing with the diapers for the first time.
