" So will you willing to give me a chance to prove myself for lifetime? " He asked me with unwavering commitment and honesty.
"If I deny then ? " I asked
" Then I'll try until you agree " he said with determination.
He is still holding my hand and his intense gaze melting me
I glanced him and said " don't look me like that"
"Like what ?" he teased me considering my flushed face
" Okay I am giving you last chance just because you are father of my baby" i said.
I agreed to his term considering his apology and honest commitment
He looks tired as he sleep deprived and under too much work pressure I thought and glanced his face .
" Thank you so much, i will make sure you will never regret your decision" he stated firmly.
" Okay wait here I'll back in few minutes " he said and I nodded.
Looking at moon I thought may be tomorrow will be different for us .
He returned, carrying a bucket with hot water and put it down near my feet .
He grabbed my feet
" Ye aap kya kr rahe h ? " I said as taken back or awestruck by this act .
He didn't listen." chhodiye hume " i said again
" Sssss stay still " he said putting his finger on me lips and dipped my feet in hot water.
" Ab itna to kr hi skta hu kunnu ki mamma ke liye" he said making me all giddy, pink hue eruption on cheeks, i looked down try to avoid his gaze .
It's awkward for both of us but not uncomfortable.
Caring man is better than a loving one I heard this quote but realised it today.
I feel my eye lids are giving up , I'm too sleepy
" Let's sleep I'm sleepy" i said
He nodded and we both get inside closing the balcony
I get in bed then I remembered " did you had your dinner" i asked
" Yes don't worry and sleep" he said and I went into deep slumber .
Next morning
I woke up and saw bed is empty, where is both father son duo .
It's 7 o clock I immediately went in washroom. done with morning routine I decided to wear a plain pink saree with oxidised jhumke
I glanced my reflection in mirror and smiled
I am looking beautiful.

I was about to open the door but door burst open revealing mr yaduvanshi and my baby.
He looked at me and his eyes are doing something to me . We both lost in the moment, mamma mamma I heard kunnu's voice voice
Ignoring his burning gaze I forwarded towards him and try to took the baby but he still clutching him
" Mr yaduvanshi" i called him but he didn't listen
" Mr yaduvanshi give kunnu to me" i again said.
"Haaan ! Huh ! " he said looking here and there but not me .
Kunnu grabbed his face with both his little hands
" Mamma" he said pointed towards me
" You are such a mamma boy " he said giving kunnu to me
"Mamma mmm" he said
" What baby" i asked
Mmm mmm he again said looking at my breast
Mr yaduvanshi also looking at us , it's embarrassing I want to earth shallow me , ahhhh inke samne ye Krna jaruri tha beta I thought
He averted his gaze and went to Washroom as he have to get ready for office.
" You are such a naughty boy huh " i said pinching his nose and sat down on bed , and breastfeed baby covering dupatta on his face .

Mr yaduvanshi came out only in towel , I gulped down looking at sight....a sinful sight
I can see his neck veins popping out and water dripping out from his hair and a perfect v line is visible , he is a definition of perfection.
" Aadhya staring is bad " he said smirking.
" I'm not " i said looking down not wanting to show my face.
I didn't like my name this much as I like today , he said my name with softness, wait am I crushing over my husband
No it's not, admiring someone is not bad I make myself understand but my heart seems to not understand anything.
I was mingled in own thoughts and inner turmoil, he already got ready and combing hair infront of mirror.
" Okay I have an urgent meeting today that's why going this early" he said looking into my eyes
" Okay be safe " i said
He gradually came towards me , my breath hitched due to closeness and bareness of chest making me shy , although there is dupatta over but still I'm too shy to look at him
I can't help biting my lips
He approached baby and kissed his forehead over dupatta . This proximity sending shiver down in whole body. He detached himself and said " take care of yourself" patting my head , i can't even reply he has forceable effect on me
I nodded without looking at him . He exited the room and I breathed heavily which I holding for a while.
Kunnu is sleeping peacefully, i also stepped out from room for my precious tea
" Beta are you making tea ? " Dad asked
" Yes do you want? " I asked
We develop a good bond , he always treats me good as I always crave for father's love.
" Yes i can't deny tea " he said chuckling
" I'll bring" i said
He asked me about my patients and their story but I know he wants me to get comfortable around him
" Beta if vardhan ever trouble you, tell me I will handle me
You don't have to tolerate his tantrums" he said.
" He is not that bad papa " i said lowering my head
" That's good ... and I'm going out of the town
Take care of yourself and kunnu" he said
I nodded.
There is difference between chote papa and papa
Chote papa is more extrovert but papa is little bit conserved, but still he knows how to make his children comfortable around him.
They both still fight over silly thing and mom have to handle them , i chuckled remembering the previous incidents.
I heard kunnu's crying but choti mom already taken him in arms
Mom also going with dad , Vishal and veer already went to college.
I thought of doing superspeciality in neonatology, doctorate in pediatrics for which I have to clear Neet-ss .
I called mamma for my books and other essential stationery which were there , so why not use them .
Mamma said " aao aur le jao " she wants to meet me , i also badly missing her . Adjusting in new house is not easy but people here make it comfortable except mr yaduvanshi but finally he accepted his mistake so now I don't have to lie my mamma about her son in law.
" Dadi can I go to mamma , i have to bring something and also want to meet her " i asked dadi who is reading a novel.
" Beta you can go and stay there if you want" she said.
" About kunnu ? " I asked hesitantly i don't want to leave me , he will surely weeping without me and I'll be in constant worry.
" He is your child and you can make decisions about him . This is the last time I am hearing something like that from you" she said sternly.
" Okay dadi thank you " i said and left for there.
I packed mine and kunnu belonging for a night.
" Let's go to Nani place " i said to kunnu who is playing in chota maa's lap
" Choti maa I'm going and aap apna dhyan rakhna " i said
"Okay beta but you come soon, house will be quite without baby and you " she said
" I'll come tomorrow don't worry " i said.
Both kunnu and I departed for mamma's house with driver as chote papa insisted.
I also sent message to Mr yaduvanshi but he didn't see it yet such a busy person.
My baby is excited as he blinkly watching outside.
We reached and I touched mamma's feet , she blessed me and grabbed me in a hug making me emotional.
" Mamma I'm hungry and where is ritvik" i asked sitting on the sofa , driver uncle already put luggage inside.
" Ritvik is in school and I already cooked your favourite food" she said lovingly
"Mom I have to tell you something but please don't get angry." i said
I put kunnu on bed as he asleep , adjusting pillows beside him .
I came downstairs, mom already placed all food on dining table. We both sat down " bolo beta kya hua" she asked
I hesitantly told her all the medical process
She approached me and hugged me
" Beta you are too brave, you should have told me I have taken better care of you
Are you fine now ....i don't want anything happen to my child" she asked many questions as she is worried for me . Mother and their unconditional love.
I answered all her worries . " I knew you are fond of kids but this much " she said
" Mamma since I known my condition, I was broken because this is something I always want to experience" i said. She patted my head and kissed my forehead.
" My child has grown so much, I'm proud of you" she said.
Ritvik also came and hugged me tightly, he was surprised to see me
" Didi I missed you" he said emotionally
" And where is baby, don't tell me you didn't bring him " he asked, his emotions shifted like a cameleon change colour
" He is in my room" I said and he literally ran towards the room
" He is sleeping don't disturb him " i shouted but I know he will not listen.
"And I also missed you" i again shouted and chuckled at his actions.
He came with kunnu who is wide awake and whimpering in ritvik arms
" Di why doesn't he want to play with me " he asked
" He doesn't know you yet that's why, spend time with him he will surely like you" i said ruffling his hairs
" Di don't touch my hairs" uff boys and their obsession with their hairs .
We spent time together and it's 9 o clock and I'm arranging my books which are required , mamma and ritvik are with kunnu .
While I was arranging book , my phone rang
I picked up and heard a deep muscular voice, his voice is capable of making me wet , don't be dirty aadhya i warned myself.
" Why didn't you inform me before going out" he asked and I'm sure he is controller his anger .
" You know it's dangerous to go out without security " he again said.
" Mr yaduvanshi i already informed you but you didn't see the message yet " i said calmly.
" You should have called me " he said
" I didn't want to disturb you " i said and memories of his outburst hit my brain .
" I'll never be busy for my family and I will never repeat the same mistake again " he said as he sensed my feelings.
" When will you return? " he asked
" Tomorrow" i said
" Okay call me , I will come to take you home" he said
" No need I'll manage, i don't want to interrupt your work " i said
" I am always free for you, aap kah kr to dekhiye " he said
Huh ?
"I mean for my family " he again said .
" Okay I'll tell you" i told him . I want to talk to him more but he seems distant and closed .
" Where is kunnu" he asked breaking the silence
" He is with mamma " i said
He didn't said to after that ...there is complete silence, faint breathing can be listened.
" Aapko aur kuch kahna h ? " I asked him to make the situation less awkward.
( Do you want to say anything else?)
He denied . "Okay then good night" i said and he answered " hmm " and cut the call.
Mamma bring back the baby and I tried to lul him to sleep but he is getting naughty day by day
I think he is missing his father
" Bachha are you missing papa" i said kissing his cheeks, he giggled
" Mamma mamma "
" Yes baby" i replied bringing my face close to him
" Paa paa " he said oh my god this is first time he said that and Mr yaduvanshi is not here to listen that , i immediately video called him
He picked " mr yaduvanshi do you know kunnu said papa for the first time" I blabbered without listening to him .
" What! Are you sure " he surprised by this because he was trying hard to listen papa but kunnu didn't said .
I showed him kunnu" kunnu look papa, say papa baby " i said , he giggled looking at the screen
" Baby speak .....I'm listening " mr yaduvanshi being the impatient but he shows emotions only to baby .
" Baby say paaa..paa " i said again because I can't see mr yaduvanshi upset
" Pa ..pa pa..pa " kunnu said clapping and giggling
There are lots of emotions in mr yaduvanshi eye , he is much happy
"Yes baby I'm papa " he said and I chuckled at his behaviour. He became another person infront of baby.
" Mammma mamma " he said capturing my face with his tiny hands and pointed towards screen and again said " papaa papa"
I kissed him and said " yes baby i know..."
There are tears in my eye, happy tears because I know my baby is getting better day by day and this moment is overwhelming for both of us .
"Aadhya thank you so much it's only possible because of you" mr yaduvanshi said .
" It's nothing like that, kunnu loves you and he is missing you that's why he didn't sleep yet" i said to make the situation light.
" I'm also missing him , room because unexpectedly silent and I'm become too much habitual to both of you " he said and he also included me
" Are you missing me mr yaduvanshi " i teased him
" Do you want me to miss you " he backfire
" We are sleepy.... okay " i said ignoring his question, he laughed and it's the first time he is this
much happy and he has a beautiful smile .
" Okay good night" he said and cut the call.
After too much effort kunnu slept and I also went into deep slumber.
