God !!vespa brings back fond memories. Early 1990's bajaj chetak which was a vespa variant and Then LML vespa were the scene in scooter in india. And LML vespa lost itself to stiff competition later to the newer kinetic honda variants without the kick starts.
Riding pillion ... roaming around the streets without a care in the world , movies, chaat and generally loafing around... Beautiful snapshots stuck in memory . Sigh...
The dude thought when the baby arrives he will be relegated to the background...they have been counting hours they have been apart and we see that she hardly gets noticed and observations of his silence expression and conjectures of his arrival are being made by his lil angel not her that is obsessively in love with him.
