From a paradise called mumma's cocoon
26 Mar 2013
I won...I won...I won!!! I won the hide n' seek. What papa? You found us all the way to Lalitpur once, but you couldn't find me in mumma's tummy. Hee...hee! I fooled you there, didn't I? What...whose side am I on? Yours of course...and mumma's too. No, no...I am not being diplomatic. OK...alright...let's begin from the beginning...Hmm!! Earlier in the kitchen, mumma took both of us by surprise when she became all hyper and scared for me because Aakash chachu mentioned something about a shaa...shra something. That upset her bad I tell you...I could feel her protective shield tightening more...if that's even possible. I looked up and saw the concern on your face when you came to pacify her. She scolded you and she pushed you away. I was already upset about what all was happening around me...half of which goes over my head anyway. And then this! She became angry with you...and I became angry with her and sat in one corner of her tummy, puffing my cheeks in consternation. She must have felt my stillness and then my puffed-up-angry angry cheeks and understood that I was as upset as you were. That's why she came to say sorry to you. (Psst, papa!! On an aside...doesn't mumma look cute when she apologizes...holding her ears like bhaiya? **Sigh** Why am I even asking you this? It's written all over your face...that if I were not present there, you would...you would...do something very mushy...ask for a heavy-duty tax or something. What? You think I am dumb and don't know what a tax is between you two?)
I was right...I saw your sad sad face about how it saddened you that mumma scolded you in front of everyone. You said, "I can't say anything in front of anyone Aartiji for the fear that you'll beat me?" When she playfully raised her hand, you dropped down to ask for my help. I was sitting right there watching all the fun, as by then I too had realized that you were playing along with her. Now, how could I not defend my papa when he asks my help so sweetly. So when mumma pulled your ears in mock anger, that's when I stood up and kicked with all my little might just to let her know that I was with you on this. Aha...she understood why I did that, because she said, "It's not fair, I talk of beating you up and the little imp kicks me!!" You said "Very Good!!" So I kicked again...but this time for mumma...to let her know that I am on her side this time.
And then I hid...just when you bent to feel me. That was fun. Then I nudged mumma , and she understood. That's why she told you that I needed a bribe to feel me. Awww papa...I am so glad I played that prank. I would give anything to see that loving look you reserve only for mumma. As you hugged her from behind, I hugged her from front, and she closed her eyes in ecstasy. It was time to reward you for all that love...so I pressed exactly where your hand lay on her tummy. And when you knelt down and pressed your cheek against me in bliss, I kissed you. Did you feel that? I am sure you did.
You are the best you know...No matter how many times I say it, it's still not enough. There's so much going on with the family...so much tension, so much sorrow, so much negativity. Yet, when mumma is with you, she is at peace. You keep her happy...you ensure the smile never goes away from her beautiful face...you take care of even the tiniest of her needs...you absorb all her pregnancy tantrums...you give her so much love that she glows from insides, the aura of which keeps me safely cocooned in her. I may be coming between your hugs, but nothing could ever come between the love you have for each other. I could just sit here and watch you two for hours. Dadima must be real proud of you when she looks down from the heavens. You are not only taking care of mumma, me, didis, and bhaiya but also the entire family. That's no mean feat.
Wow! Your thoughts catch the same frequency now. Of course, I knew what was playing on mumma's mind regarding dadaji and Radha dadi...but to hear you voice the same was like wow. Go for it papa!! I am with you two...I mean I agree. A wedding! Wow! The big question is where would I be when that happens? Here inside mumma's paradise...or out there in the paradise of your lap????
I love you papa. Till next time then.
