Heyyy dear Sujataji... First of all, thank u so much for sending the link... I was just up on Sat. morning, received the notification of ur PM and checked out the link too!!! Read the full chapter in just 1 go!!! I am yet to read AnuDidi's chapter, so, dont know about babies delivery part and all. But, this as an independent chapter is also perfect!!! loved every word of it!!! ππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππ What a fantabulous writer u make!!!! Hv no words to admire!!! Ur story made my day -- weekend too!!! ππππππππ
Here we go, summarizing my reading exp. with each paragraph!!!ππ
π
Loved the description of baby's room decoration and Armaan's surprise wala idea and his 4 car-seat and his ideas about his nephew+niece's future professions.ππππ Ashu is shown taking all kind of care of Nidhi while her stay at hospital... so sweet!!! And, perfect real scene: New mommy is worn out feeding the kid every 2 hr.s -- with having born twins!!π³π³π³πππ Lack of sleep for both parents --- so real picture!! πππππ
Their arrival at home, recalling Nidhi's Grih-pravesh after wedding, Nidhi straightaway heading to Ashu's parents' pic. & asking for their blessings for their grandchildren -- really touched my heart!!! too good!!! ππππππ
I could visualize AshNi's delight when Armaan's surprise was revealed... the word picture was so so perfect!!! Loved the way you described the next scene of feeding process with great decency -- in my POV, for Hospital it was okay that Ashu was helping Nidhi with bottle-feeding the other kid, but, in presence of so many ppl at home, if Ashu had stayed with her during that time -- it would hv sounded a little awkward, especially in India.(In US, no one minds, rather appreciates hubby helping out wifey for this!!) So, loved that u took care of it and made Anji help Nidhi. πππ
Then Rohan's daring and Aanchal's YES was totally surprise packet!!! Honestly, I didnt expect it to take place at that moment in the story!!! I nearly sprang from sofa while reading that!!! Nidhi-DB scene was so cute!!
But, for me the lullaby scene was awesomest!!! Cant find extra - superlative words to describe the beauty of that scene!!! How Nidhi puts her son to sleep simultaneously while nursing him; how Ashu rues his misfortune as an abandoned child; how Nidhi understands his emotions and indulges that child in him by caressing his head like his mommy; Ashu drifts off to sleep... awww... uber-cute+sweet+superb+senti. senti.+most wonderful scene of the whole chapter!!! It was like "out of the world' kinda scene for me that made me feel that AshNi relationship isnt just lovers turning H-W, but, now they share a one step above, divine relationship in which both play friend, philosopher, guide, mother/father, spouse -- every role for each other as and when the other partner needs... So Elysian!!! βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈ
Next morning scene was another cherry on the cake: Nidhi's shining results!!!ππππ I was like "Khuda jab deta hai toh chhappar faad ke deta hai" saying is becoming reality for AshNi here. Loved how Armaan offered his flat -- how simpatico!!! Nidhi's reluctance on joining AIIMS was perfectly justified and Ashu was mind-blowing as a hubby there...ππππ His "planning-ahead" nature and foresightedness showed up full-fledged!!! I was speechless to read, how he left no stone unturned in not only convincing his Nidhi but also in making all arrangements of relocating with entire family; securing his work commitments and above all taking a voluntary seat-back and bringing Nidhi to driving seat!!! I am in awe of this Ashu of ur story!!!! What a wondrous way to thank the wife+life who gave him so much that he cant even count and hold!!!! ππππππππ The way Ashu convinced Nidhi and DB too in this whole scene, was magnificent!!! βοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈβοΈ

Ashu's busy schedule at KGH was perfectly fathomable... And the baby-bathing scene involving AshNi's usual leg-pulling was so cute!!! Ashu has become very smart in giving pat replies now!!! The way he replied with "National park mein HM" and "She should be thankful that he agreed to come" was hilarious!!! If he doesnt consent to go alongwith, how would it be called their HM??? π€£π€£
And then, Nidhi reverting back with "machaan per baithker thank u bol rahe they" and his another quick and clever answer "Mauke ki nazakat" was like... splendid sixerππππππππ Waise, True...naa??? Relenting to demanding circumstances, if that night he hadnt placated her, he probably wouldnt hv been able to hv his first nite even during their HM ππππππ
Lastly, Nidhi's beatific prediction about Armaan's lady-love and Armaan having found her in as much as the same time was so lovely!!! Although might be excused for a coincidence, but, to me it was like Nidhi's heartfelt wishes for a brotherly figure, only made it all happening in reality!!! ππππππ The last words from Ashu's conscience are still reverberating in my mind:"Home to his Nidhi", "Home to his angel" πππππππππππππππππππ
I am really sad that ur FF is concluded todayππππππ But, I understand that now there isnt much development in this story; it will be like dragging it unnecessarily and story will risk of becoming boring and banal. Hence I respect urs and Anudi's idea of ending this FF here. Thank u so much for the lovely parallel reads. Thank u for incorporating our suggestions in ur story and coming up every once a week, with a great treasure of emotions running out from the characters of ur story. Thank u for giving a great relief to us with ur positive story which proved like a boon during the horrible Mallu redemption track. U hv amazing writing skills -- absolutely love it!!! So, plz. come back with another FF/OS asap.
