Part 162: what to say, ummm, umm, ummm... :)

Days and months flew by, Ruhi was getting more into books and a world of imagination in her own way, until she heard the story of black beauty.

"dadi, Ruhi wants to name RUhi's pony"

Suchi looked at Ruhi's face in surprise: so you didn't name your pony yet?

"Ruhi don't go near pony, pony bite " Ruhi said innocently

Suchi with a smile: no beta, come, let's go and see what pony doing now

They both walked out to the yard. The adult ones were resting, while little pony was in a play mood.

Suchi: wow , look at her, she is grown too

Ruhi smiled

Suchi: so what you call her?

Ruhi after a thought: blackbeauty

Suchi with a smile: but your pony is all white

Ruhi: blackbeauty

Suchi: let's think some other name

Ruhi tapped her little finger near her cheek. Suchi laughed seeing her action, but then stood seriously seeing the little ones seriousness on the issue.

Suchi: um um

Ruhi: ummm

Suchi: I think lechu is the best person to chose a name for ur pony

Ruhi: no lechu, my chacha,

Suchi: ok baba, chacha

Ruhi: can Ruhi call pony pink beauty

Suchi: pink beauty!! why?

Ruhi: because RUhi loves pink color, and Ruhi's pony will be pink beauty

Suchi: oh dear, now how will I explain this to you, see look at your pony, how beautiful she looks, she looks like a pari, right, see how white her hair is

'pari, pari, ruhi's pony's name is Pari"

She jumped on her feet

Suchi thought for a second, ok better than pink beauty, or which one, anyway, let her decide.

They went near Pari, and Ruhi was getting more closer with the pony, she caressed the white fur, and then tried to get more closer.

"Ruhi wants to go for a ride"

Suchi looked around and a boy came in. suchi helped RUhi to climb on, and holding her tight, pony took it small steps, as if knowing that it should not scare the little girl.

Suchi just cheered Ruhi, and walked along with them rounding the yard.

*********

RUhi was playing over Dev's shoulder as Radhika stepped into the room. After changing when she came back she saw both of them coloring a picture book with the crayons scattered all in bed.

"what you two are doing"? she asked as she tied her hair in a bun

Dev still concentrating: coloring a pony's pic

"no papa, pari"

Radhika: pari, who is pari?

Ruhi sitting straight: my pony, dadi named Ruhi's pony

Radhika: oh really, that's nice

Ruhi: No ,no dadi, Ruhi did, let me tell that to baby

She circled her arms around Radhika's tummy, and then bringing her lips closer, said : you know baby, today dadi and Ruhi went to pony, pony was playing around, and Ruhi touched pony, ayyyo, he was so soft , and the boy said it is going to rain, then buva came, and buva said, she looked at Radhika's and Dev's face, and then "um, let me tell you secretly. She went more closer and started moving her lips, with her cornering eyes on Dev and Radhika. Radhika looked at Dev and he smiled seeing Ruhi's actions'. the story continued .. and you know what the grapes were.

Suddenly interrupting her, Dev: RUhi beta, I thought you are talking about pony, and from where this rain and buva and now grapes came

Ruhi: papa, don't listen, I am telling a secret

Dev: oh this was a secret

Ruhi: papa

Radhika, Ok baba, now clean the bed, and get to sleep. I am tired

Radhika got up to clean the bed, while Dev took Ruhi in his arms to put her to sleep.

Radhika turned the lights off and settled herself next to Dev.

Few minutes ticked by, Ruhi slipped into her dreamworld.

Dev slowly turning himself, looked at Radhika. She was lying facing her back towards him. He softly leaned over and found her closed eyes. With a smile, he moved closer to her, and wrapped his right arm around her tummy, and rested his face closer to her cheek, holding her closer , he murmured: goodnight

Radhika smiled as she felt his breath near his facial skin caressed over her cheek skin.

"that tickles"

Dev: shhh, RUhi sleeping

Radhika: that tickles

Dev with a naughty smile: um, I know, how can you sleep that fast, that also facing away from me.

Radhika : um, you are tired na, very busy during days and...

Dev: vahi tho keh rehe hum na. too busy , but at your eyes reach, right

Radhika: um

Dev: Radhika, how is our little one

Radhika turning to her back: um, so now you thought of our baby, with RUhi, you never slept without talking to her, calling her princess, angel and what not, and now

Dev: now also there is no change. He put his feet over hers, and continued: you know what, I am also in confusion, thinking will it be a girl, or a boy

Radhika: a boy

Dev: why? I don't mind another princess

Radhika: see, you have one , right next to you, now it is my wish

Dev: ha, ok, this time I listen to you, but you know what, I think it will be another girl only

Radhika: please

Dev: ok baba, ok what my baby boy saying

Radhika: not good,

Dev: what?

Radhika: baby BOY!!!

Dev: oh ok, so what you want to call him?

Radhika: um, um, um

Dev controlling his smile: what is this um um ummm

Radhika: that's what I am also thinking

Dev: ok, can I suggest

Radhika: that's what I meant by 'um'

Dev: um, what about

Suddenly Dev's hands felt a kick , he looked at Radhika: is baby awake?

Radhika: think so

Dev: then it is baby girl only, so only she didn't like me to put any boy's name for her

Radhika: um, nice excuse. Ok, let's not name him now, we will just call 'baby" and once the baby comes we will name

Dev: ok baba

Radhika: stroked her hands over her tummy, and Dev just kept his hands over hers, and looking at her smile, he buried his head near her neck space, with a small peck near her cheek.

***********

Time passed quick, the Bhatt family celebrated Lechu's happy news. Suchi conveyed her tension for the first time, thinking how Lechu will manage everything. Felt comfortable seeing sammy's comforting smile.

Time passing by, right after Lechu's godbharai, Radhika got admitted in the hospital. Her face were looking so flushed near to term. Ruhi stayed back with Sushma in chandenpur, while the rest of the family assembled in hospital. Suchi send Lechu home saying to come the next day to see the baby.

The sky was bright and clear, the chandenpur got up hearing the happy news. It just shared from one ear to next with a smile on their lips. ROhini was unable to stand in one place, with happiness she was running around sharing the sweets.

Sushma showed up with RUhi and she ran to the room with a shout: my baby my baby

But ignoring the little one in suchi's hand, she jumped onto the bed, where her mom is lying with her curious eyes to see Ruhi's reaction.

Looking at mamma's flattened tummy, little RUhi: where is the baby mamma?

Dev with a smile, took her in his arms and walked near to Suchi

"here is your little baby" he said with happiness

The smile disappeared from RUhi's face, and she just looked at this little one curiosly, without realizing the eyes on her face

Suddenly: Baby, baby, she patted on Dev's shoulder and said secretly: papa, baby

Dev with a smile: ha, beta, baby

Ruhi: baby

"um Baby, you want to hold him?" SUchi said with a smile

RUhi cling to Dev's shoulder as Suchi extended baby , higher enough for Ruhi to see clearly.

Surender: now what, don't want to play with baby

Ruhi looked at baby's face more closely

Surender took the baby in his lap and started talking, and sushma also joined with descriptions and similarities. Ruhi just watched each one's face,

Suddenly she struggled to get down from Dev's arms and Dev placed her down

"Ruhi's baby"

Running near to a chair, and stretching her legs with little more effort, she climbed over the chair. She tapped on her lap and said: um, um

Sushma: um what?

Ruhi extending her both arms: ruhi's baby, then again patted on her lap and nodding her chin she said: um, um

Suchi: OMG! She wants to hold the baby, really!

Ruhi: Dadi, baby and again tapped on her lap showing the place

Suchi: no beta, you come and sit near me

Ruhi: ruhi's baby, give

"ok , ok"

Dev was ready with the camera, radhika just smiled watching them,

Suchi slowly placed the little one in Ruhi's lap and kept her hands below supporting well.

Ruhi just looked at the sleeping baby's face

Sushma: ye, you need o support the baby too, hold your hands under

But Ruhi brought her hand up and touched baby's forehead and tapped softly

"Suchi: OMG! What she is doing, Radhika look at her,"

Dev just smiled while clicking on without interruption

After few minutes: ok beta, now let dadi take the baby ok

Ruhi: no

Suchi: RUhi beta, you might be tired now

Ruhi: no, RUhi's baby

Suchi: ha, RUhi's baby, but now let dadi hold him ok

Ruhi tried to tap baby's forhead softly one more time: no, my baby

SUshma: beta, baby maybe feeling hungry, ok, now you go out and get the candies, then baby also will be awake

RUhi looked at Sushma: candy

Sushma: um candy

RUhi suddenly tried to jump out from the chair

Suchi moved the baby quickly into her side

Within seconds Ruhi stood on her feet and held sushma's hand

Sushma: what?

Ruhi: candy

Sushma: see, when she heard about candy, she don't want her baby anymore

RUhi: chuchuma , come, candy

Surender: RUhi beta, come with me, lets give candy to everyone, you are going to be my big helper

Ruhi walked out with Surender

The family started talking and smiling recollecting Ruhi's actions. Soon it was getting dark outside and they all left home with RUhi leaving the newborn and his parents in room.

Dev sat near Radhika holding his little one in his arms, and with a smile he said: this time it is your wish that came true.

Radhika just smiled trying to look at the baby's face

"Hriday"

Radhika looked at him

Dev said with a wet voice: so you know the meaning of Ruhi

Radhika nodded her head : um

Dev: Soul , right

Radhika: um

Dev: so this is our Hriday

Radhika looked at him

Dev : Ha Radhika, you don't know how happy I am , I love you so much, its just growing every day, to such a level that I don't see any limit there. Each day with passing time, I want to come back to you, I can see a smile in everything now, I am feeling the chndenpur breeze, I can hear the soft percussions arising from those splashes, I can hear the chirpy birds , and I can see that peacock dance, and the running deer's' when I walk through the muddy path I can see your smile from every corner, and your dreamy eyes, Oh Radhika, you don't know how happy I am feeling now as I am holding our little one, my heart is feeling so light as I share this moment with you'

You have shown me beauty
Of the nature's bounty
You have shown me love
Deep within my heart
You are the breath
Of my soul
You are my life
With heart & soul

awesome di ruhi's reactions were so nice
