The early morning was filled with peaceful melodies except for the pitter-patter of tiny footsteps.
Someone quietly slipped into Abhay's room or say the only one who is willingly allowed to.
A little figure carefully climbed into his bed, throwing a tiny arm and leg around as much of Abhay as it can manage like a baby octopus.
Abhay opened his eyes and kissed her and tucked her closer to him.
“Why are you so early, baby?” Abhay asked.
“I wanted to be up before Mr. Sun.”Abhay smiled at her reason.
" and I wanted to see dada, cause when Aliya wake up late dada not here" little girl pouted.
Abhay felt a pinch in his heart.
how could he ignore his little princess?
Abhay kissed her pout " I'm sorry bud! I promise today dada gonna spend whole day with his little princess " he said softly pinching her nose making her giggle.
" weally?!"she said jumping on the bed.
Abhay grabbed the excited girl and hugged her, securing the girl on his arms.
"Yes baby, dada will spend all his time with you today." He said nuzzling into her belly.
"No wowk?!" Aliya asked looking at him with her big eyes.
Abhay frowned no really understanding her, but he chuckled when it clicked into her mind that his princess pronounces 'w' instead of 'r'.
" okay no work for today, happy?!"
" will dada go shopping with Aliya?"
Abhay laughed how can a three and half year old toddler be so addicted to shopping." Yes I'll go baby, we will buy lots of things for my princess"but he was confused when her lips started quivering, tears started gathering in her doe eyes.
" Dada lying! Dada no serwous! Dada laughing."
"Hey princess, dada isn't lying, he's laughing cause he's excited to spend time with his little." He said kissing her forehead.
"Weally?" He nodded.
“Come on, let’s get some breakfast.” He scooped her up and went towards kitchen after brushing her and his teeth.
Aliya Raichand,she's the only one who makes Abhay forget his imaginary world.
“Aliya, you have to eat baby.” Alina placed the spoon on her daughter's pudgy hands. Her little girl snapped out of it and started stuffing food on her mouth much to Alina's satisfaction.
After sometime Aliya pouted and set her spoon down.
She still have a bit left from her baby food.
“I don’t want anymowe, mumma.” Alina rushed to her daughter.
“Just a bit more, baby.” she picked up the spoon and started feeding her daughter. Who was now sitting on Abhay's lap.
“Here comes an airplane. Open up baby, or the plane will crash on your lips.”
Every meal is the same. She'd have to convince Aliya to eat the last of her meal. It always end up with her feeding the little girl.
When she finished her meal and everything was cleared up, Alina head to the drawers and pulled the kid’s vitamins and a small white bottle.
“Alright, time for the vitamins.” Aliya didn't complain about it. Alina got a spoonful of the syrup to her mouth who was playing with Abhay now.
"Now princess, time for your meds."
"Dada.." The little girl started whining. “I don wanna. I hate that.” Abhay's felt his heart ache. He wished his baby girl wouldn’t have to experience this.
“It's just two small circles and it tastes like strawberry. You like strawberries, don't you?” Abhay tried to convince her but the girl still whined. Her eyes shining with tears and it broke the man's heart.
“Don want, Dada.” Her tears were now flowing down her chubby cheeks. Alina looked at her daughter with tear filled eyes.
Abhay scooped Aliya from his lap and bounced her on his arms.
“We’ll go for shopping if princess will drink her meds.” It caught her attention.
"Yes we'll go for shopping princess, c'mon quickly finish it first.” Alina urged.
Aliya looked at her dada. She frowned and hesitated for a minute before picking two small white pill from his palm and gulp it one after the other.
“Yey!” Abhay cheer earning an excited clap from Alina. Aliya was now smiling a bit. “Let's take a bath and we’ll go for shopping.”
Alina picked her daughter up from Abhay's lap and head to the bathroom. It would be a tiring day, she knew.
