#14: Your hands are so much larger than mine.
Let it be known that a fever riddled Twinkle and heavy dose medication make for interesting late night conversations much at her expense. She would question anything and everything like a five-year old. Why?' being her favorite question.
Why is the sky blue? Why do fishes swim and birds fly? Why don't fishes fly and birds swim?
And then there are the occasional obvious facts that she would suddenly state and amuse herself with. Coconut is not actually a nut, Kunj! Amazing!' Kunj! The sun doesn't actually set! It's the earth that is rotating! Wow! Who would have thought?"
So that was what was happening for the past two days in the Sarna household. Kunj tending to a sick Twinkle and he has got to admit it, looking after her was more entertaining than worrying. Here he thought he would have to hold her hair back as she puked her guts out, maybe wake up in the middle of the night to give her, her medicines. But nope, it was actually more of sitting by her side and faking attention as she hoarsely rambled on and on about things she wouldn't dare speak of in her complete consciousness. In her defense her medications were very potent because only Twinkle can manage to get the combination of viral infection, stomach bug and fever all together, which caused her to be doozy and loopy through the entire day.
Currently Kunj was sitting beside her on the bed. He placed a hand on her forehead to check her fever. Twinkle who was so far peacefully dozing chose he exact time to grace the land of the living. Her eyes flicker over to meet his and then follows down the path of his hands. She grabs his fists in her little ones and in an action none of them anticipated, she kisses his knuckles.
It softened his heart to mush to see that even her loopy state she yet managed to shower her love on him. He was about to lean down, return the favor and kiss her forehead, when-
"Kunj! Your hands are so much larger than mine!"
And the moment was killed. Ruthlessly and adorably butchered!
"That is because I am bigger than you" he chuckled.
"Nope! Tum jhoot bol rahe ho! Humari age bilkul same hai. Matching-matching!"
"Haan par tujhe thoda bada hoon na?"
She scrunches up her nose in thought, trying to remember just how much elder he was to her. "Kitne bade?"
"6 mahine."
She sits up at that, shocked and clearly confused. She pushes herself towards him close enough that their shoulders touch each other. "Kunj height mahino mein nahi, centimeters mein count karte hai, samjhe?" she says pinching his cheeks.
Why does she have to be this loveable? Kunj found himself thinking and barely stifling a chuckle. "Twinkle, main tujhse, age, height, aur weight mein bhi bada hoon."
"Par Kunj still, your hands are so much larger than mine! Kaise?"
By now Kunj knows that it was futile trying to explain things to her so he switches his strategy. "Twinkle, dekh." He says and places his palm against hers. "Mere haath bade nahi hai. Dekh tere haath chote hai."
Twinkle squints her eyes and brings herself closer to their hands, trying to get a better view to examine them. She hums one or twice. "Haan Kunj, tum sahi keh rahe ho! Mere hands are smaller than yours!"
She pushes herself closer to him once again, this time planting her lips smack and sweetly on his cheek. "Muah! You are always right Kunj. Thank you." She mumbles in a yawn before placing her head on his chest and dozing off again.
Kunj finally gets to place a kiss of his own on her head. She is going to kill him with her cuteness one day.
THE END.
Well this marks the end of Day 1/50. I hope you all enjoyed.
