It was a usual evening ,Raman was busy in his office when he got an email.he sat down to check it and was confused reading it.it was from ishita.
Raman- why ish is sending me email when she can talk with me.thinking so he open the email and got more confused.it reads,

From,soon to be mumma.
Raman- what kind of mail is this.and who is this papa - mumma that to soon to was thinking scratching his head when he finally got sense of that mail.he literally jump out of his chair thinking, is it real or she means something else.he immediately closed his laptop and ran out of his office.
Soon he was in car going to his home.he was driving car fastly but soon slow it down thinking ishita will surely scold him if he drive fastly .he was excited like a kid and want to reach her asap.he stop at the florist shop and picked her favourite lilies along with her favourite chocolate cake.he happily reached home only to found ishita sitting with a sad face.his heart skip a beat seeing her dull face.
Raman- (st) what happened. Is everything alright.why she is sad.
He rush to her and asked-what happened ish.why u r so sad.
Ishita look at him and said with a cute pout- why u took so long to come. I was waiting for u since long.
Raman smiles and said- sorry ish ,I was just being conscious. Koi aane wala hai naa.
Ishita smiled and hugged him.he picked her in his arms and swirled her around. She laughed along with him.
Ishita- hamara baby aane wala hai.isn't it great Mann.we r going to be parents soon.
Raman hugged her tight happily and said- yes ish we r going to be parents.I love u a lot.
Ishita- love u too.
Raman- did u told anyone.
Ishita- nope,u r the first one and only one.I felt shy in sharing this news.waise bhi u should told everyone about this.she said making patterns on his chest.
Raman- OK let's tell everyone.he said making her sit in his lap.she was wearing a small pant along with a loose tee.she sat on his lap folding her legs like a baby.he wounded his arms around her to support her.
After that he called their parents together making a conference call and broke the news .
Their parents were more then happy to hear such a great news.
Toshiji- I am coming tomorrow and ishita puttar u take leave .now no work only rest.
Amma- I am also coming kanna.
Raman made a face and said- no need to come here.I will take good care of her .
Mr bhalla- no Raman,u need someone to take care of ishita.I think ur mothers can go one by one.someday toshiji will stay and some day madhvi ji.
Appa- yes that will be great .saying so they decide the things and end the call.
Raman made a face and said everyone will disturb us.but it will be OK. Maa aayegi toh help hi hogi.waise bhi why I am tensed about it now.first let me enjoy this news fully.saying so he gave her the flowers.
Raman- this is for my ish.the would be mother of my chotu baby.
Ishita took it smiling and then they cut the cake together.after that they went for dinner .Raman wasn't leaving any chance to pamper her.
Next day toshiji came ,she was too happy to see ishra so happy and contented in their life.Raman was also relaxed coz of toshiji.slowly time started passing.ishita was very happy coz Raman and toshiji was pampering her a lot.
Their mothers have fixed their turn.one month toshiji stay with ishra ,another month madhu.like this seven months passed.
Their mothers arranged for ishita's baby shower.everyone came abs blessed the would be mother and child.everything was settled in their life .their mothers were there to look after Ishita while Raman never leave any chance to pamper her.every evening he take her out for walk and they enjoy ice cream and cakes,as per her will.
Finally the day came.everyone was waiting outside the labour ward while ishita was inside.with every passing second Raman's worry was increasing.toshiji was consoling him still he was very worried.just then they heard baby's cry.
All faces broke into a smile.Raman ran to the ward when a nurse came out and said- congratulations, its a baby girl.saying so she gave the little baby in his hand.
