Mr and Mrs bhalla were sitting on the bench waiting for the good news while Raman was pacing to and fro impatiently.
Seeing him pacing worriedly, at last Toshiji said-baith jaa raman puttar, Sab changa hona hai.
Raman -I am very worried maa, hope she is fine.
Toshiji-baith jaa puttar, everything will be fine.
Mr bhalla-haan raman, Humne kisi ka kya bigada hai ki bhagwaan hamara kuch bigadenge. Tu baith jaa. He said and finally ramab could sit.
Seeing him so worried, five years old Ruhi who was sitting silently till now, went close to Raman and said-dont worry papa, sab thik ho jayega.
Raman picked her in his arms and hugged her tight feeling restless. Ruhi caressed his face softly trying to ease his restlessness. But Raman was just too worried.
Seeing him so worried at last Ruhi said-i am sorry papa, this all happened coz of me. Mujhe hi baby chahiye, meri wajah se mumma hospital hai. I am really sorry papa. She said making a baby face.
Seeing her sad face, Raman eased a bit and said-no babu, it's not because of u. Infact u r the one who showed us a ray of hope that we can have another baby, Aap toh woh ho jiski wajah se hum apni zindagi ka woh waqt jee paye,jisse jeene ki umeed hi nahi thi. He said and got lost in the memories of the last few years.
