Moments Like These <3
Nupur got up yawning and moaning after finding the space beside her empty on the bed, she wondered what her husband was upto. Walking downstairs and all about she found him no where in sight and then heading back upstairs her eyes caught a hold of the nursery where her dear husband was keenly starring at their little angel, she smiled to herself watching him with all the love in the world.
"Mayank?" she said quietly not wanting to wake up the baby, Baby khushi was only 3 weeks old and ever since she had come hom...this had been the only week where she actually slept. The doctors had told them... it was normal for the baby to be cranky because it would take sometime for her to adjust being out of the mother's womb.
"shhh" Mayank instructed while turning towards his tired and worn out wife. Even though his mom had moved into to help out during the first month, there was just no end to the things that needed to be done.
Nupur smiled walking towards him, she took a seat beside him placing her head on his shoulder, " she is breathing you know!" mayank sighed pulling his finger back and turning towards his wise yet alittle annoying wife, " really how do you know? look at her ...her nose is so tiny! how does air come in and go out?" he asked sarcastically placing his finger again near khushi's nose to confirm air was coming out.
Nupur giggled looking towards khushi, she was sleeping peacefully in her crib wrapped in a cloth like a bundle in a white winnie the pooh blanket to make her feel like she is still in the womb and then slowly slowly they would adjust her to her new home. Her face was rosy pink and his tiny little hands were curled to the side while her head supported a cute little hat that was to keep her warm.
"mayank, your paranoid" nupur started pulling his hand away.Mayank glared at her angrily while his eyes never left a sight of his daughter.
Nupur grasped that there was prorbably something more to this and mayank was sheilding it behind this excuse, "something wrong?" she asked entwining his hand within hers.
Mayank faced nupur and looking into her eyes, he leaned in to kiss her forehead " thank you"
"for?" she asked blushing, after weeks this had been the first close moment they had. Usually when she was awake mayank would be taking a nap and vice versa.
"for bringing this little angel into our lives" he spoke with his eyes alittle wet, " i still can't believe we made her....she is ours to keep!" expressing his disbelief, nupur understand why he had been so worried.
"yes we are....i can't thank god enough"
Mayank smiled kissing nupur on the cheek" your going to be a great mama"
"and you'll be a great dad" nupur added.
"nupur i still can't believe we are responsible for this little life infront of lives...she is so tiny, just look at her!" he spoke in awe of his daughter making nupur smile with tears overshadowing her eyes.
"will we be able to take care of her?" he asked placed his finger in khushi's hand only to see her grasp it immediately.
"Mayank calm down, Khushi is very lucky to have a father like you" mayank looked away but nupur turned him to face herself, " mayank listen to me, this little girl is the worlds luckiest child to have a father like you" mayank nodded asking her again as if she was sure of her words.
Nupur blinked through her eyes assuring her words were the truth and nothing else, " yes you are alittle sadu but ...your much more loving and caring"
Mayank pulled her into a warm hug " i love you"
"I love you too" nupur replied breathing in the warmth.

Okay this is one moment that i imagined between them because my friends husband had been so paranoid and afraid that the baby couldn't breath because her nose was so tiny. I found that to be so adorable. I think it suits mayank very much, who would be a protective father i'm presumming. Awwee i still can't believe MN are going to be parents <3
PS: chose the name khushi because she will be the biggest joy & blessing of their lives
