PART 59 Sometimes people are blessed with a life which seems much like a dream that they forget that something called sorrow is there in life. Same was the condition with RoSid. They were boundlessly happy with the little one who was waiting for its entry to their life. Sid was not on floor. He kept running around crazily to make things best for his expected child. The way he cared Roli was something special. You can call it the care that eyelids give to eyes or a mother gives to her baby. Sid knew that Roli missed her parents at this point of time when she needed them the most. Pregnancy is that stage in a girl's life where she must be made to adjust to the new conditions. Things are totally new that she may feel it difficult to adjust though she wants to. Amrita was there foe Roli's help in household works. Roli kept puking and feeling bad during day and night and Sid literally lost his sleep trying to care of her health. But the best part was that he found his happiness in that. And about Roli's cravings, better not talk about that, she became the mother of craziness in the matter of cravings. Often she felt to have Gulab Jamun mixed with lemonade or carrot halwa with a combo of desi pickle and sometimes she feel the smell of coffee powder too good that she feel to have it raw. Sid literally climbed up the tall mango tree in the compound only to make Roli's craving on raw mangoes satisfied. It was indeed a heartbreak for him to see that she bit them one after another, commented that they weren't sour enough and threw them away. But what to do? She's PREGNANT...No way out... The scene was even better on nights... Roli kept puking whatever she ate for dinner. And for Hema...the nights became sleepless...Sid used to cal her midnight saying that Roli is puking, Roli s fainting, Roli is that, Roli is this...Hema had lost her patience explain to him that they were common in pregnancy. But he was adamant...He couldn't let his wife suffer just because she's pregnant. Finally Hema found it better to switch off her phone so as to catch some sleep at night. Then when Roli, slept she dreamed of her baby with cute little cheeks and innocent eyes. Siddhant wished if there was some device which could transmit dreams, as Roli told him about the beauty of her dreams. Finally another two months passed and Roli entered her fifth month of pregnancy. And Sid's baby being as naughty as him started kicking Roli as and when. She felt tingle at the moments when she felt the little limbs on the surface of her womb. Sid too felt the pleasure of their baby's kick by keeping his hands or ears on Roli's stomach. The funny situations always changed for emotional scenes when this happened. The feeling that their baby, their blood was so close to them made them feel ecstatic. And then came the ultrasonography. Sid almost turned the whole hospital upside down as he saw the tender fingers of his baby on the screen. Roli was different. She kept crying the whole day in the happiness of getting to see the life that grew inside her. Nights that followed were less of puking and throwing up but more of the movements of the baby. Their love for the child grew as they waited sleepless, expecting the little movements. Subsequent sonographies helped only to make the couple more happy and crazy. Roli was literally fed up by Sid's torture in the name of caring. He made her walk two kilometers a morning. It would have been pretty easier early. But it is not easy to walk with a baby in your stomach. She begged him to stop it. But he was in no mood to listen. No compromise in health, he proclaimed. And the oil massages at the weekends to prevent swelling of legs and hands. It was actually Jhanvi's idea and Roli literally wanted to kill her giving such an idea. Roli was allergic towards oil since childhood. Even in childhood when her mom tried to do an oil massage, she was the one who always scooted. But that was impossible with Mr. Bharadwaj. He made her bath in oil that she felt like running and hiding from him. And next were his dieting ideas. He made her have a whole glass of fruit juice, toast and dates syrup as breakfast along with the milk that she was supposed to drink at early morning. Lunch was even heavier. All thanks to Hema, she asked him to make the food lighter, so these days things are easy for Roli. Amidst all this they didn't forget to celebrate their first anniversary. It was all happy and simple. Amar, Jhanvi, Mr. and Mrs. Verma, Hema Amrita and few other friends and colleagues of Sid and Roli were the only guests. They were happy to successfully complete the first year of their togetherness. The presence of the little life that symbolized their love for each other improved the sweetness of the moments. Finally with so much care and happiness, Roli entered the last month of her pregnancy. There was barely 2 weeks for Roli's delivery. Sid already took a long leave of 3 weeks starting from the next week. He cared Roli the most because things were pretty difficult for her. She couldn't walk easily and she could hardly eat anything. Sid too didn't pressurize Roli for he understood her difficulty. He fed her mashed fruits and oats which were lighter and healthier foods. And the best part was that the movements of Roli and Sid were most felt on those days. Sid felt them as he hugged Roli in her sleep. Both of them were thoroughly enjoying the most blessed part of life, waiting to hold their cute baby in their arms. I know guys; this update was rather a comprehensive one. But personally if I start writing about Roli's pregnancy and Sid's care for her it would run for another 50 updates. So I controlled myself. I don't know if what all I wrote is foolishness...Now let me tell you guys, in upcoming updates, this bed of flowers condition is all going to be put on a halt...I know it's a bit cruel at this point, but it's very necessary...tears are to take up RoSid's life again..But stay tuned and watch out how they solve their issues together and remain as each other's strength
