Sinking in...
Sam walked into the kitchen and found the couple glaring at each other. R&B sipped his beer and turned towards the dining table
"Tumhe ready nahi hona hai?" Sam asked cheerfully
II smiled weakly
"Please yaar tum dono aakar lad lo zara?" she said looking at their expression again
"Have u picked out a place?" he asked Sam
"How do I know bhai? I mean... I dont live here... any place thats expensive and with good food" she laughed
Ranjan brought both the girls
Nivi was sucking on a granola bar hungrily
Lasya tried to snatch the gooey cluster of oats and nuts off of it
The bar fell off Nivi's hand... she looked forlorn
II's heart melted in despair,
HOW CAN I WATCH OUT FOR YOU
IF I AM GOING TO BE DRAGGING MY 30 LB BELLY AND NURSING AND IN POST PARTUM WOES
AYYO
WHY CANT I KEEP MY HANDS TO MYSELF?
WHY CANT HE KEEP HIS... UMM.. TO HIMSELF
She groaned wearily
A wave of nausea swept through her again
Beads of sweat formed on her forehead and she bit her lower lip, unwilling to bend and pick Nivi up, hoping the wave will pass and she will be OK
But she wasnt OK
"Ek second huh?" she muttered breathlessly almost sprinting to the bathroom
A look of joy flit across Nivi's face to be replaced by sorrow as II passed her unmindfully
"Maine ghar pe kha lena hai puttar" Ranjan muttered sitting down
"We can bring something for u" R&B promised
Ranjan smiled at the concern
"There is so much food in your frig" he muttered
"Khichri khaan da mann haiga, ya tey tu bana jaayin beta ya gudiya nu kaheen jara" he said
Lasya climbed on to his lap
Sam nodded reluctantly
II returned after 15 minutes
"Brush karne ke liye bhaagi?" Sam asked stunned
II smiled
"U smell like tooth paste. Tum dono make out karne ki soch rahe ho to main aur Dad yaha rehte hain" she chuckled
"Oh no" II shook her head
"Dad chaliye" II said shrilly
"na puttar mere waaste khichri bana logi?" he asked
II nodded sincerely
"U cud tell me how to make it?" R&B enquired
"Not funny" she whispered
"She feels like a cold's coming on" he supplied a lie to his sis
"Din mein das baar thande paani se mooh dhoyegi aur nahayegi to" Sam scolded
II wished there was no one around she wanted to curl up on dude's lap and take a nap
She ached for him
"I guess" she muttered deflated
"I am going to go wear my newest buy... u can come watch me wear make up ishita" she giggled
Lasya got off her Nanu's lap "Maaa... ake up ake up" she said
Nivi looked at her in wonderment
Sam bend down and picked her up "U are chooo beautiful" "U dont need any" she kissed Nivi's cheeks
She smiled softly
"She loves the praise" Sam said shocked
"Wonder who she takes after" II smiled cynically
She was chopping tomatoes furiously
"I am just wearing my jeans" she muttered
"You are 6 feet tall you dont need fancy clothing, some of us need to be noticed" Sam grumbled
II smiled
"I wont eat much" she wraned her husband in a whisper
"Do u want to stay home?" he asked softly
Her eyes lit up at the kindness
"sam ko keh dogey?" she asked as Sam walked out with the kids, Ranjan answered his phone
"U need to get some sleep" he ordered
"If I am pregnant I am not going back" she said as if he was going to hate that
A glorious smile bloomed on his face, like she actually was
"I MEAN TUM MERE SAATH WAAPIS JAAOOGEY" she poked his chest with her index finger
He held her fist and carressed her finger
"This is sheer madness" he groaned
"I shud have known... I had a premonition the day I met u" she said bitterly "U are nothing but trouble".
Rinsing the rice furiously
Ranjan had caught the last authoritative decree his DIl had made
He was delirious with joy...
