Bonne lecture!
[ missing you, mumma ]
A new day was starting, birds' constant morning singing and daylight trespassing through the shutters in the room were to wake up the sleeping city.
The light sleeper baby she was, the little girl moved her head before slowly blinking open her eyes, her arms and legs smoothly stretched and she yawned mouth-wide-open deliberately. She rolled and pushed her hands on the rigid ground to sit on her little buttocks, checking the surroundings through half-open eyes. She rubbed them and noticing the old white veil of her mother next to her, she took it in her tiny fist before crawling looking around, dragging the cloth in her tight grip. It was not her bed but something much smaller and round, and she was certainly not alone for the soft snores in the room, emitting a babyish sound as an answer to the person next to her.
Nothing seemed to reach his ears until he heard a loud cooing in the room. He stirred up and, sleeping on his front, he was to switch his position when he again heard the sound. He sighed and tapped his hand on the bed to find it awfully empty, and not being the same soft mattress. He slowly brushed the sleep off his eyes and opened them to fall on the pink doll staring at him in that seated position, before the thin bottom line on her precious face turned into a curve. "Pa—pa"
He smiled back. "Good morning, baby. Already awake?", he said sleepily as he turned his hand and she gleefully crawled to put her palm on it, babbling how happy she felt to wake up next to her father. He wrapped her soft hand and took it to kiss her soft fist as she was looking at his actions, first clueless but then smiling.
"Now Diya baby give a kissie to papa.", he asked and she leaned onto his cheek to drop a wet peck before hugging him by his neck as he pulled her down on the bed rest. She disagreed and standing up again on her fours, she roamed in the tent until he woke up. She wanted to get cleaned and have her breakfast, and yet mumma was not showing up.
He chuckled at her antics, knowing what exactly she needed right now. "Fine, let's wake up.", he said as he slowly sat straight, making her look at him keenly before crawling to his front, the old white cloth of her mother still in her claws.
She stopped on her way to play with the toy car midway, sitting on her legs when she felt something hovering her from behind as he kissed on the top of her head. Seeing her father also on his fours, she smiled wide and started the race crawling faster to the door.
"I am going to get you...", each time she heard him nearing closer, she giggled louder and louder trying to escape from his catch, and they kept running all over the room, him making sure she wouldn't bump into somewhere hard except his hold. "Run, run, run faster... or papa will catch you."
She was about to hit her head on the cupboard when he quickly moved and pulled her in his arms, dropping kisses all over her face and tickling her soft little tummy over her onesie, her laughter being the only sound to fill his ears and the room as he enjoyed it until she seemed to struggle with her breathing.
"Okay, stop. Now let's get this tummy filled, after having these dirty clothes and diaper changed.", he grimaced as she calmed, and carried her in his arm to their room.

"I worked on the case last night and noted a few points, I think this should be helpful for the team, since the next hearing is just in four days.", Arjun handed over the file to his father as they were discussing at the dining table in their lawn area.
