AvNeil Drabble ~ Cricket Team
"Neil, look Naveen is not ready to wear his boxers. Avni screamed out to Neil who was with their daughter, Nysa.
"Totally besharm, just like you. Avni muttered angrily running behind Naveen with his boxers.
"And what about your maharani, huh, stubborn not to have her food. Just like you, stubborn, ziddi. Neil retorted back.
"Nothing against me, Mr.Khanna. You are to be blamed for spoiling her. Avni warned raising her index finger.
Before Neil could reply, they heard a huge creaking sound from the firtst floor of their house. Both looked at each other with horrid expressions before rushing upstairs. And the sight that came into view was certainly not pleasant.
Their triplets, Aditya, Zahara and Azma were crying while behind them were fragments of broken library shelf. Avni and Neil rushed inside and carefully picked their children up, lest they get pricked by the wood pieces.
Bringing them downstairs, they made their children seated on the couch. Upon counting, with horror, Avni realised their three more children were missing.
"Neil She shook her husband's hand, "Amna, Kriti and Adarsh are missing. She continued before both ran in opposite directions to find their three notorious children. And in their absence, the children seated on the couch looked at each other mischievously before flew away in different directions.
Finally reaching the garden, they sighed with relief finding their children. Dusting off all the mud from their clothes, they brought them back to the hall only to finding the remaining part of batallion missing.
"It's all because of Neil. Avni flared with anger while Neil stood in confusion.
"What did I do? He asked clueless.
"We have 10 children, 10. Eight already out and two inside me. All because of you, you stupid moron. Nahi tum kuch karte aur na main aise halate mein hoti. She cribbed.
"Baby-making process requires two people, if you remember Mrs.Neil Khanna. Wasn't it you who 'Ah!Neil' and drove me crazy. And what was your dialogue on our wedding night: behave like a samsari with your newly wed wife, you sanyasi. Neil got irritated.
Their argument continued for like eternity when Avni shrieked "NOO! . She woke up startled by the nightmare, yes nightmare. She looked at her surroundings, it was midnight and her husband slept peacefully occupying the other side of the bed. She touched her abdomen; it was flat.
"Ok, it was all a dream. Avni relaxed before waking up her husband.
"Neil, do we have ten children? Avni asked, jerking Neil from sleep. He gave her W*F expression.
"I had a dream, where we had a cricket team of children and were busy arguing. Avni continued. Neil shook his head, his wife was a unique piece deserved to be kept in a museum. Visitors should be collected a huge fees to see her.
"Cricket team has eleven players, silly. Sleep and let me also sleep. Let us discuss about having how many babies tomorrow morning, Ok wifey. Neil pulled the duvet over his face.
The night was long and Avni wasn't going to sleep any sooner, for what if the dream repeated again!
