Sukor - Not All Roses

Chapter 7 - Deja vu

"it was nothing suraj she's just going crazy over some laddoos i fed to Avya" Imli explained showing the laddoo cardamon's skin peeking out the sweet to Suraj , he winced looking at those remembering his allergies towards cardamon , 'wait? allergy , was it possible for avya to share that with him????" Damnnn he cursed himself now feeling angry at Imli as Chakor did

"Why will you even feed her something???? She's a child and Chakor being her mother knows what's best for her, if she decided not to give it to Avya she might had some reasons right??? Can't believe how stupid can you get Imli" He scolded her leaving her alone to watch over If avya was fine

Imli hadn't expect suraj to talk to her like that it was as if it wasn't the Suraj she had known since forever.

He approached to Chakor room listening to the high pitch cries of Avya, it was heartbreaking, perhaps she wasn't suffering from allergy but scared of being scolded by Chakor

But when he peeked in the room, Chakor looked like she was equally in pain, holding her daughter who was now fully disrobed and visible red rashes appeared on her body, she while in one hand had Avya who completely denied the comfort of the mattress and her other hand looking for something in her bag 

"Avi don't scratch , it will worsen baby, just wait mumma will give you the medicines" but instead of quietening Avya cried even harder, it was seeing the struggles of four years in 5 minutes, Suraj couldn't admire her more

"it's itchy mumma... "she said between her sobs , dragging her mother's attention back to her, who finally had her hands on the medicines

Suraj watched the scene and wondered if Avya shared the same hatred for medicines with him, and yes her cries and yells for no, was a sure confirmation, he could see tears forming in even Chakor's eyes and rushed to his room

Past last 4 years her only support had been her child and now even a pinch of pain on Avya tortured her insides, she felt a rush of nausea in her throat and suddenly she started blaming herself along for having had returned to India, the red rashes on her daughter's neck were only itching her but to Chakor those rashes were like burns to her

"Here" He said interrupting Chakor while she kept on insisting the anti-allergic pill in Avya's mouth

An ointment cream in his hands and perhaps wishing deeply she'd not deny it but she'd just that, she returned him a glare, balancing Avya in one hand who kept on making it tougher for Chakor, as she kept on crying and moving violently, shaking her head in a determined NO

"I don't need your help, I can very well handle my child, have been doing it for 4 years now" her heart clenching at her daughter's tears but what she din't know was even his were hurting while seeing Avya in such a state

"Chakor, our hatred on one hand, but right now Av...Avya's pain is our main priority, take the ointment, I have the same allergy and same hatred for medicine, trust me it'll work" She looked over to him full surprised, all these while this allergy were genetic, she swallowed her pride and tried to take the ointment with her other hand but much to her displease her princess turned in her hands trying to switch sides "Aviii, baby just wait, we will put a cold cream and it'll be all alright" but alas her words never managed to convince Avya in such condition, she'd know since she had been through such situation more than one times, with a child over enthusiastic as Avya incidents had no forewarning

He reluctantly forwarded his arms without even saying he's here to help and much to Chakor's displease it was as if immediate Avya shifted to Suraj, without even a word, just like that she found comfort in his arms, what on earth was happening??? "Mumma will put the ointment and all you boo boos will go away" He whispered to Avya in a baby tone which Chakor was clueless could belong to Suraj, he was feeling all content all of the sudden now that his daughter's warmth filled his arms
