After a journey of an hour as I was driving a little bit slow so that Nupur's wound didn't hurt her much 'we reached home ,it's been evening when we reached home'We trio entered the house simultaneously where Shriya was holding her mother's hand and I was to holding her mother' s hand.
"Okay..!! this is the living room..here the pasaage goes to left is the dning room and there only attached the open kitchen and yes'!!! The passage of rooms are from these stairs.First door room is mine while second one is your's and Shriya.."Nupur gave me a surprise look.
"I know you and Shriya do not sleep separately'and yes the third one is the toy room of Shriya'!!! I hope she would like it'"
Nupur:"Ofcourse she would'afterall her Daddy has done all these arrangements for her'"
I went to put their bag in her room and when I returned I found both of them not in the living room,a sudden panic engulfed in my heart I went upto the dining area where I found the mother daughter were as usual busy with there secert talk..!!! I felt so relieved to see them'I went upto her and asked,"Nupur..!! do you need anything'!!"
Nupur:"Yeah..!! actually..Shriya is feeling hungry.. aur vese bhi hospital k cereals of boiled food kha kha k hum bore chuke hain'So I thought why not make a dinner for us.."
I interrupted her,"Tum kyu bana rahi ho Dinner.. you are not fully well Nupur.."
Nupur:"To aur kon banayega Mayank.."
"I will make.. tell me what would you too ladies would like to have ..!!"I made Nupur sit on the chair beside Shriya and bowed my head in front of them .
Nupur gave a glanced to Shriya and then said,"Well..!! we would like to have a corn soup and pasta salade..!!!"
"The chef is at your serve Mam..!!! you just wait and watch ..!!"
Nupur:"Let me also help you.."
"No Nupur..!! You are not completely well..!!!"
Nupur:"Please Mayank..!!"She gave me her cute face to which she very well know I can't deny'God..! this girl.. and turned towards Shrya and said,"Shriya do you know aapki Mom se jeetna mushkil hi nai namumkin hain.."She stood up and kissed her mother cheek Gosh..!!! I wish one day she also kiss my cheek on her own well..!! I will wait for that blissfull day.
I gave Nupur vegetables to chop till then I could able to prepare rest indegrients..I watched that mother-daughter were sharing a secret talk and was also laughing on it..when I raised my brow to ask Nupur just giggled and not only she even Shriya was too giggling but hid herself behind her mother so that I won't able to see her but she don't know that I am her father after all I know'everything..!!!
I smiled seeing them laughing..felt so much content in my heart'gosh I missed her smile.After sometime the dinner was ready..!!! firstly I served them the hot soup and asked them to taste it.Firstly Nupur taste it seeing her closing her eyes in pleasant was well enough for me to understand that she liked it but before she could compliment bout the soup I heard another sound which was actually a very unexpected for me..
"Yummy'!!!!...I just loved it..!!!"This was from Shriya she was fully enjoying it I felt so much happy..for the first time she praises anything of mine..and mentally I made a note that from nowdays I will only make dinner , lunch and breakfast'for her because she loved food been made by me.. her this one sentence was more than enough for me..!! today I felt the dinner much pleasant and delicious than other days because today I have my daughter and my love with me to share my dinner.
Nupur:"Mayank..it's really awesome.."
"Anything for you too ladies..!!"Shriya said something into her ear to whch Nupur reacted suprisingly and said to me ,"Mayank..we want that atleast for few days you to make all the meals'"
I understood that it was a request from my daughter,"Ofcourse my pleasure and even I am ready to prepare meals for you and my daughter for my whole life'"
Nupur:"That so sweet of you Mayank.."
"Bas..Nupur..!!! let's have dinner today I am actually feeling hungry'"
Nupur:"Yeah'!!! Even we too after so many years having delicious food.."
I was taking another spoon in my mouth when my hand stops in middle listening this..!!! before I could feel guilt or rage I felt someone's hand on my hand and realized that it was Nupur's hand 'conveying me to not to feel any more guilty I gave a smile to her assuring that I am fine and resume to my dinner.Rest the dinner was silent'.
''''
After dinner I gave Nupur her medicines and suggested her to sleep.We trio were walking to our respective room where Shriya was moving a bit forward.I bid goodnight to both of them and was about to open my door when Nupur called me up.
Nupur;"Mayank.."
"Yes.!!!"
"Vo..actually I have only a pair of clothes and no night wear'can you.."
"Yeah..!!! sure'for today you can use my clothes 'I hope you are comfortable with it'"
She nodded her head and I lead her into my room to give her my clothes.
Nupur's P.O.V.
As soon as I entered his room I was totally mesmerized he has decorated his room the same way I want white walls..wodden carving furniture a red colour couch and me and Mayank's big a very photo at the center of the entrance wall'though I want the photo to be of our wedding one but still I am happy 'I was so much amazed seeing the way he had kept alive in his life..!!! I felt so much special'.
He called me and said,"Nupur..here is my shirt and pj I hope they would fit you.."
I looked at the shirt..it was the same shirt..same shirt which I worn when we stayed in a house'I touched it to recall all those moments of our'A smile played on my lips and I asked ,"Mayank..You still remember it..!!"
Mayank:"Mein kabhi hoola hi nahi tha'to yaad rakhne ki kya baat .."
"Vo bhi kya din tha Mayank.."
Mayank:"Valentines day tha vo..meri life ka sabse special day'"
"Matlab..!!"
Mayank:"Well tumhe ek raaz ki baat batao'that day I fallen in love with you but kept on denying my self that it's not love..!!! but you see though it took time but I realized my unconditional love for you..!!"
My mouth was huge open..!! Mayank Sharma has fallen in love with me on that day..OMG..!!!
Third Person P.O.V.
he saw her mouth was huge open and wasn't reacting ..he snapped his fingers in front of her' she came out from her deep thought and stared at him blankly.She was totally out of words Mayank rosed his eye brows indicating her to say something but it seems words were stuck in her mouth all she could able to utter a simple goodnight walked towards her room.
As soon as she entered her room she leaned towards the door feelings those emotions which were somewere dead in her..her knees weaken and she slid down to floor'her face was showing mixture of shock happiness pain emotions'.unknown to her tears split out from her eyes.
