Drabble #1 - NO BAKED BEANS FOR YOU
P - I want baked beans and toast. Now! Now! Now!
A - No baby, no baked beans for you.
P - But why? I am preggers!! It's a craving! Just get it!!
A - No I don't want to scare chotu!
P - Why will chotu get scared of baked beans and toast?
A - Will you ever fillet a fish in front of our aquarium?
P - Err..no..but hows it relevant?
A - Exactly, you don't eat what you pet! Didn't the gynac show us that chotu is about the size of a baked bean right now? How would he feel seeing a fellow baked bean being digested right before him by the moster called mom? So no baked beans.
P - In one conversation you turned chotu into a fish and a baked bean *angry*
A - Prags I just drew a simile baby, like how you wouldn't want to hurt our fishes Alpha', Beta' and Gama' by filleting those yummy pomfrets by their aquarium, same way you wouldn't want to terrify chotu by digesting a bean!!
P - I only fillet fishes inside the kitchen because it's messy to do it anywhere else!!! Also chotu is not a PET!! And chotu can't see these things!!! Why do you have to argue lame??
A - Phew monster pregnancy hormones! (to himself)
P - Excuse me!!! *fuming*

Drabble #3 - TRYING NOT TO BE SEXY
P - Abhi if you eat one more of those ghee laden parathas meant for me, I swear I will kill you!
A - But they are so tasty! Daadi made them with her own hands and you don't like ghee anyway!
P - Its full of carbs and its unhealthy and you've not hit the gym, I can see that paunch competing with mine now! You've got to stop baby!
A - Baby you're not getting this, I need to un-sexy myself. It's a part of an ulterior plan!
P - And that would be? *amused*
A - Because you'll be really balloony soon, and then I will look too irresistibly sexy next to you, what if the other sexy girls think they stand a chance with me? I don't want my super sexiness to cause rift between us! *makes innocent face*
P - SERIOUSLY? Balloony'? That's not even a word!! *fumes*

*baby kicks inside*
P - See, see he kicked!!!! Try again!!
A - Pragya you're so much fun!
P - See, no kick!
*Abhi thinks for a moment and suddenly smiles*
A - We will do it again. Fuggy is a big fugga' now!
*then abhi gently pats Pragya's tummy where chotu kicks*
A - See you read this wrong!! Everytime I say the truth, he high-fives me! See, Fuggy is silly!
*High-fives*
A - Fuggy is a chashmish
*High-fives*
A - Chotu loves papa more
*High-fives*
P - Urghhh

P - Baby, what is it? I didn't see anything
A - Didn't you see, chotu winked!!! Like father like son! Even I thought your gynac was kind of cute! *smirks*
P - Abhishek Prem Mehra, that was a momentary lapse of signal causing blurry image! My chotu isn't like you! He respects women and doesn't wink! *head held high*
Shit he just winked again! :O
A - Attaboy!

P - Abhishesk chotu's on a kick marathon again, I can't sleep!
A - Not in the middle of the night Fuggi!! I am sleeping!
P - I don't care!! I need to sleep!! I need that!!
A - No champ, no live performance now. However...
*fetches his earphones and plugs one bud close to the navel and plays Happy Love'*

P - I think he's calming down. *relaxes*
A - Lets sleep quickly before he realizes this in not live but recorded!!

Drabble #8 - SELFIE WITH CHAMP
A - Fuggi, hurry up we have an emergency USG to go for.
P - When was this scheduled? Last time we went for check-up, doc said things were fine. *surprised*
