*************†***************†*********

Transfer.. transfer with promotion.

The  rich lavish Indian Air force emblem embedded official letter.

Dev Prayag Raichand  read  again,it's official, that he got promotion, Promotion..wing Commander.

His wistful smile turned into a  grin ..he was proud.. he achieved this position in his youngest age itself, this dignity is a huge responsibility towards nation..the life of military man is not a cake walk.. every rewards are another challenge.. promotion or not he's always ready to serve  his nation.

Last posting was in Kashmir..a rather risky  ecosystem,hard and dangerous border area..

Now transferred to Delhi  with an exciting opportunity to grow further.

Someone snatched the letter..a loud wolfish whistle followed by a bone crushing hug..

His wife, Gargi,a bit dramatic person, she snuggled deep into him.

"Congrats...Dev.."

"Congrats..."

Gargi cradled his face in her palms.. there was a brief pause, the lights from courtyard pouring over them.
Her eyes gleaming with love and happiness. Dev touched her hair lovingly.

"Dev... I am very proud of you..."

"Love you..."

She  again snuggled him with another hug..

Dev hugged back. breathing her fresh lavender perfume..he smiled, she's freshly showered,her hair wet with water droplets... Gargi is his life. His wife is a charming lady. He loves her the most.

"Paa..."

A small tug . Dev looked down,

A bright, happy and unaffected baby girl..who amusingly casting a toothy grin at them.

Dev carefully withdraw his arms from his wife, and bent  down into  his daughter's,her  happily beaming face is his everything.

He saw his mischievous baby on roll..Dev lifted her, hoisting her he gave a kiss on her temple..

"Oh...my..my... pumpkin.."

Gargi strolled next to him, she playfully  tapped Dev's shoulder,he almost forgot about his wife,

" So father daughter duo forget me... right..?"

Her voice was light, there was humour in her tone, Khushi  grinned at her father and snuggled into his chest.

Dev curved his another arms around gargis shoulders and  completed their group hug.

"Khushi... love you..."

Gargi engulfed them in lovely manner, she kissed her baby girl's cheek.

"Mumma....."

" Me tooo..Lub..youuu...paa.."
