Part_42
Balwant and Bansuri were invited for dinner at somebody's house and so were veera and Baldev but they didn't go beacuse Veera was not feeling so good, Balveer was with Bansuri and Gunjan had come over to take care of Veera and help Baldev.
There was a sudden change in weather and the clouds covered pritampura and a dangerous thuderstorm took over.
Gunjan; veerji bahar mausam bht kharab hogya he ab ki hoga, beeji ka phone aya tha keh rhi thi wahin rukna hoga sari sadken pani se bhar gai hen aur kai dharakht bhi gir gye hen
Baldev; haan wo to dikh rha he Gunjan bas ye light ko kuch na ho, acha hua bijli ka bandobas sahi hogya warna aaj to bijli zarur jati
Veera was laying on the bed and reading a magazine when suddenly she experienced some pain.
Baldev; kya hua Veera?
Veera; baldev menu bht dard ho rha he
Gunjan; veerji veera ka to akhri mahina chal rha he na
Baldev; haan pr wo doctor ne jo tareekh di thi usme ek hafta he abhi
Veera; baldev menu bht ziada dard ho rha he
Veera was in a lot of pain, unbearable pain that lasted for an hour and then went away.
Gunjan; shuqr he dard khtam hogya veerji
But then after half and hour the pain returned, Veera's pain worsened and now occurred at regular short intervals. Baldev and Gunjan started panicking seeing Veera like that, Veera grabbed the bedsheet tight. Gunjan called Ratan and told her everything
Veera; Baldev menu lagta he baby aane wala he, menu pehle bhi ese hi hua tha, thodi thodi der me dard ho rha tha, ab ki hoga, hum doctor ke paas kese jayenge?
She had tears in her eyes, Baldev hugged her from the side and put her head on his shoulder
Baldev; nhi nhi esa kuch nhi hoga, tenu aise hi dard ho rha hoga
Gunjan; nhi veerji, veera sahi keh rhi he, meri abhi beeji chaiji se baat hui, Veera ko jujki ka dard hi ho rha he, bacha aane wala he veerji
Baldev; par abhi ithe kese, doctor bhi nhi aa skti, koi dai bhi nhi aa skti bahar inna pani he, ghar k andar bhi thoda pani agaya he kese hoga Gunjan, meri veera mera bacha, dono ki jaan khatre me

Veera; baldev..mere..mere phone se chanchali did ko phone laga wo tenu bataen gi kya krna he
Baldev; pr ye kon he?
Gunjan; wo veera ki saheli jinke saath veera rehti thi hena, wo doctor he
Baldev; acha main phone krta hun
Baldev dialed the number and told her the situation then he put the phone on loud speakers
Chanchli; acha don't panick, zameen pe ek chadar bicha ke veera ko uspe lita do, uski taangen upar krdo aur uske baad ek tub me thoda sa neem garm pani, kuch towels or kuch scissors le aao, scissors ko flame pe garam kro aur dettol se wash krlo, jaldi
Gunjan brought everything quickly, Baldev sat with Veera and patted her head.
Chanchali; okay ab jab dard peaks pe ho to call me again.
Veera's pain increased and she was uanble to bear it
Veera; call kro call kro aaahhh
Gunjan called chanchali again
Chanchalli; Veera push, Baldev tum Veera ke pait ko upar se push kro par gently zor se nhi, Gunjan tum dekho baby ka head nazar aa rha he kya
Gunjan's head was spinning, she couldn't stand there.
Gunjan: veerji mainu chaqar aa rhe hen
Baldev; oye chup kr dekh na
Gunjan checked
Gunjan; haan
Chanchali; ok
Chanchali kept guiding them and giving instructions on phone, veera almost fainted
Gunjan felt dizzy, she left the room to puke, Baldev called her name but she didn't come back, he panicked more, his wife was in pain and his child's life in danger.
Baldev; chanchali jee bataiye menu kya krna he
Veera: baldev? nhi tujhse nhi hoga
Baldev; tu chup kr
Chanchali instructed him and Baldev holding himself together acted upon them,
Baldev; veera zor laga meri sherni hai na
Veera let out a loud shriek and suddenly Baldev held a little thing in his hand that started crying, the world stopped for him, he stared at the little thing blindly, as if seeing the light for the first time, he was lost, completely out of his senses. Chanchali's voice falling on his ears but not reaching his mind, he was paused in the moment. Gunjan entered the room and shook him
Gunjan; veerji veerji jaldi kro naada kaatna he hame
Baldev; huh,,haan haan
They clamped the umblical cord.
Gunjan; veerji aap hi kato ise
His hands trembled as he moved the scissor close to the cord, he cut it gently, after they were done with the cord chanchali instructed gunjan to remove the placenta, Baldev just held the baby in his hands and stared.
Chanchali; Baldev jee, towel paani me dip kr k baby ko saaf kro ache se
Baldev sat down by the tub and soaking the towel he started cleaning.
Veera got back to her senses and spoke in a feeble voice
Veera; mera baby, gunjan bhabhi, baldev?
Gunjan; theek he wo veera, pr mene to dhyan hi nhi diya, veerji ladka he ya ladki?
Baldev was busy cleaning, he was experiencing a different feeling, he couldn't believe that he was the first one to hold his child, the first one to see and feel, he was unable to witness the first days of balveer and God awarded him with this rare moment that might not have come in any father's life
Gunjan; veerji???
Baldev; beti he (he said slowly in a voice that was sweet gentle and full of love) meri beti he, meri jaan meri beti
Tears developed in his eyes, veera smiled as she heard it. Baldev looked up and thanked the Almighty for this special blessing, a daughter is a blessing and Baldev was blessed in a very special and unique way.
Chanchali; ab use kapde me lapait ke veera ko dijiye baldev jee, use doodh pilana hoga
Baldev wrapped a piece of cloth, her little finger caught his finger, he closed his eyes and felt the moment, he brought her close to himself kissed her forehead and then he wrapped her properly and took her to Veera, Gunjan had done her job and she cleaned the mess now, Veera sat up with support of the wall and Baldev sat beside her. veera saw her daughter and tears developed in her eyes too. Baldev just couldn't move his eyes off her
Baldev; dekh Veera, kitni pyari hai na ye, gol sa chehra bilkul teri tarah, seedhe baal, badi badi ankhen, par dekh iski naaq aur rang mujhpe gya he, hamari choti si gudiya
Veera; haan Baldev haan, bht pyari he
Baldev was unable to hand her over to Veera completely but he did, understanding that a child needs a mother the most, Veera fed her and baldev kept sitting with her with closed eyes, his hand supporting their daughter.
Baldev; Veera mene iska naam soch liya he
Veera; kya?
Baldev; ye mere liye bht qeemti he na aur itni pyari he isliye iska naam hoga "sonam" aur mere liye meri choti si "sona"
Baldev and Veera joined their heads and then held their daughter together and smiled. Gunjan clicked a photo of them and smiled too.
