Wolf children

Baby won't you tell me?

Sameer was sudden awake from his blissful  sleep with the wails of his daughter. He bolted up from the bed that was lied on the floor. He was astonished to see a beautiful baby girl who is pushing her legs and hands up , with Neerja sleeping peaceful with her hand surrounding their baby and touching his hand as a protective cover. It took a while for Sameer to comprehend the things. Yesterday rainy night... Neerja's delivery done by him..His baby daughter Varsha...

He sighed loudly. Such a toll he was through mentally and physically during the delivery was going on. He had to play both the roles of being a mother to comfort his wife and as a mid-wife to deliver his child. He slowly kissed Varsha's feet. Varsha stopped her wailing and rolled her eyes to understand her Nanna. Sameer slowly brought his face towards Varsha. "Nanna ra..I am your Nanna..", he smiled. Varsha looked at her Nanna intently and cooed. He also cooed funnily at her to which she responded cheerfully. Neerja was waken up from her sleep. She was wondered to see who were playing making little naughty sounds at this early morning. 

It was heartwarming for her to see her baby is nestled by her Nanna. She cooed due to happiness when she is being kissed numerous times by him. Neerja slowly touched Sameer's face."Hey Neeru ", Sameer woke up and moved towards Neerja. He adjusted her pillow and kept their baby close to her. Varsha touched her mom's face and kept her cheek close to Neerja's cheek. Neerja kissed her chubby cheek. She couldn't believe that finally she is a mother! She remembered those moments when she cried and paryed to God to let her bear a part of Sameer in her womb. Finally the day when realised that she was pregnant. His happiness, his worries and tension, their troubles to hide her pregnancy from others and finally giving birth in a rainy night only with the help of her Sam.... Tears of happiness had no idea when to flow out of the eyes. Sameer wiped away a single drop that was poured out of her eye. "Why Neeru? Tears? You should be happy at this time isn't it? Look at our baby..", he choked out of happiness. "We need to thank all the Gods, Sam.. Varsha is hale and healthy... We got her without any problems...That's enough for us", she patted Varsha ."Even I too never believed in God, but now I feel somewhere his presence is there..In our hearts , in our minds", listening to her Nanna Varsha yawned.

"Awww...my baby feels so sleepy? Come let us go to amma", Sameer scooped his baby up and placed her on Neerja's lap. Varsha rubbed her face with her mom's dress.She was trying to touch her chest intently looking at both amma and Nanna. Neerja and Sameer understood what was she earning for.Sameer placed two pillows above which he kept their baby. He also adjusted her back with pillows and gave instructions to Neerja how to breastfeed their child properly. With her husband's aid it was easy for her to give milk for their baby. Once everything is settled, Sameer moved to kitchen to cook porridge for them. He didn't feel like to eat anything heavy and porridge with vegetable soup will be suitable for Neerja. Once he done with the cooking and kept the vessel to boil , Sameer came back to check Neerja and Varsha. Once Neerja breastfed baby completely Sameer carried his baby on his shoulder and burped. Neerja laughed to see Sameer burping the baby and Varsha made some funny noises. While Varsha slept , Sameer and Neerja had their porridge. Neerja was playing with the spoon in the porridge. "Why didn't you eat Neeru? Any problem? Do you still have pain?", Sameer bombarded Neerja with many questions."Calm down Sam..I don't have any problem... It's nothing..I don't feel like to eat", Neerja rolled her fingers in the food. Sameer sighed and moved towards her with the plate. He took a spoonful of porridge and made Neerja to eat. While eating , Neerja snuggled onto Sameer's chest. 

The news scrolled through the tv citing heavy shower. It also showed the weather forecast indicating the showers can last upto next 2 more weeks. "Will our city be flooded?", Neerja doubted. "Yes", Sameer said. "That's why I have already collected enough food ,candles and all the other equipments", he said not removing his eyes from the tv. "How do you know?", Neerja  poked Sameer. "What is left in this world that is unknown to werewolves?", Sameer raised his brows questioningly at Neerja. She understood that her husband has got the instincts to delve deep into the nature. Once they completed their breakfast , Sameer took away the plates to wash. It has been a long day for him. Finally around 1 pm the sunrays peeked into the earth. Sameer took baby Varsha in his arms not disturbing her sleep and moved towards the balcony. Neerja eagerly looked at him what was he going to do. He removed the towel covered around the baby and showed her sunlight. Once the warmth of sunlight fell on her, baby wiggled and snuggled in her dad's arms. He stood there for some time and came back to their bed room."What were you doing with her?", Neerja questioned him.
