It was a month since ishita got to know about ishita's pregnancy. Many things changed since then. Raman start dropping and picking ishita himself restraining her from driving as many times she felt dizzy and mihika was there to take care of ishita in the hospital.
Every evening while coming back raman took her to her favourite food joint where she relish all the things she wanna have while Raman just admire her. Later in night, neelu make dinner and serve them while ishita rest. And at night, she sleeps after having a glass of milk after getting much scolding from Raman.
Life was going smooth and this new addition in their life was adding to their happiness. Ishita was living in her heaven getting much love, care and pampering not only from Raman but also from mihir and mihika. Whenever raman got busy in any work, mihir came to pick ishita and mihika. He took them to their favourite golgappa vendor, where they eat golgappe as much as they want. And for morning sickness and midnight cravings, raman was always ready. Every now and then, they went out to roam in the city, just to have few scoops of ice-cream or some fritters from some random vendor or sometime just to spend time some time together. Where they sat together wrapping their arms around each other enjoying their togetherness.
Times was passing and finally ishita was three months pregnant. It was the day of her first sonography. She was sitting with mihika all tensed looking for raman but he got stunned in an important hearing.
Mihika-bhabhi, lets go inside. We r waiting since an hour, humse peeche wale ander chale gaye .der ho rahi hai.
Ishita-if u r busy miku, then u can go. But I will not go inside without raman. It's a moment to cherish forever. I want his hand in mine when we saw our baby for the first time. I wanna see the sparkle in his eyes when we hear her heartbeat for the first time.so I will wait for him.she said smiling while mihika smiled and said-as u wish bhabhi. I am here only. U sit here comfortably and wait. I just come in sometime.
Ishita nodded and mihika went setting cushions beside her. Ishita was waiting for him, when she saw him coming running to her. She smiled seeing him.
Raman came to her and said-sorry I got late, was stuck.ho gayi tumhari sonography naa. I missed it. He said making a sad face when ishita said-nahi hua, I was waiting for u. Let's go inside.
Raman got happy hearing this and both walked inside telling the nurse to call mihika.
Ishra went inside and ishita got settled on the bed. Doctor came and smiled seeing their nervous faces ensuring them that everything will be fine. Ishra nodded and hold each other's hand tight.
Soon doctor started the procedure and ishra start looking at the screen. They could see a black spot on the screen.
Doctor-its ur child.ur child is perfectly fine.73 grams is the weight. Wanna hear heartbeat.
Ishra eyes got filled seeing the almost nothing showing screen feeling their kid. They held each other's hand tight while Raman took her in side hug smiling in between his tears. When doctor asked again-wanna hear heartbeat .
Ishra nodded in yes and doctor gave them earphones. They smiled hearing the heartbeat and looked at each other feeling contented.
Doctor completed the procedure and said-ur baby is all doing fine. And ur wife is also good. Just take care of her and everything will be fine.
Raman -doc, can I ask something.
Doc-yes, ask.
Raman -is it a girl or boy.
Doctor glared at Raman and said-dont u know, its illegal to ask the gender of the feutus. I will call police or else just get out.aapko sharam nahi aati,dikhne mein padhe likhe lag rahe hai but asking this. She was saying when mihika came and said-sorry doc, but he is not like this to ask gender of the feutus for some evil intentions. He must be having some other reason to ask it.
Doctor looked at Raman and asked-why u ask so.
Raman -i wanna decorate nursery for my baby, girl hogi toh pink karunga, boy hoga toh blue. Waise for ur kind information, I am an advocate by profession and I am not going to abort my child for any reason. I asked it just because I want a baby girl. Boy hoga toh bhi chalega but it will be good if it will be a girl. He said explaining his reason for asking the gender .
Mihika-i told naa doc, he is a very good man. He loves his wife alot and waiting for his baby anxiously.
Doc smiles hearing this and said-its a baby girl. I am telling u but please don't make me regret it. Don't harm ur daughter. She is a part of u two, please don't hurt her.
Ishita-my husband can never hurt anyone doc, forget hurting his daughter. She will be our princess doc, and that's a promise. She said smiling while Raman was on nine clouds hearing that they r going to have a baby girl.
Soon they were coming back to their house after getting the reports and medicine,when he stopped the car and said-i just come. Saying so he went and came back after ten minutes with a big parcel in his hand.
Ishita-whats this.
Raman -surprise for my wife and my little princess. Saying so he got in the car and start driving. Soon they reached home and raman took her inside. He make her settle on the bed and went to make dinner for themselves after changing clothes. Ishita tried to stop him but he didn't listen.
After an hour, he came and took ishita out.ishita got happy seeing the beautiful decoration for their candle light dinner. A table was fixed for them in centre. While floating scented candles were increasing the beauty.
He make her settle on the chair comfortably and said-its ur surprise. Like it.
Ishita nodded and said-lets eat, I am very hungry. She said excitedly like kid.
Raman smiled and open the lid and ishita mouth get watery seeing the steaming idli and vada with sambhar and chatni.
Ishita looked at him in surprise and said-u made this, for me.
Raman nodded and said-yes, I know u were craving for it. Khao aur bolo kaisa bana hai. I tried for the first time. Made instant idli and vada seeing the recipe in YouTube. He said serving her.
Ishita taste it and closed her eyes feeling heavenly eating the idli.
Raman-hows it.
Ishita-heavenly, heavenly is the word. She said smiling continued eating while he smiled hearing this. He too settled beside her and both shared the meal happily.
Time started passing and ishita was now five months pregnant. Her baby bump start showing a little making it difficult for sitting to sit for long while she has to attend long lectures and practicals making difficult for her to study properly.
Raman was also thinking ways to make things simpler for her but not getting any idea.
One day ishita reached her class walking slowly only to see her classmates standing making a round in the mid of the class. She went inside and sat on the chair panting heavily when they come to her and took her to the mid of the classroom.
Ishita went with them and got surprised seeing a comfortable sofa for her and infront of it there was a small table with cushions so that ishita can keep her legs.
Ishita-whats this.
A girl said-a gift for ur baby from ur classmates. We couldn't do much ,hope u like it.
Ishita-its more then needed, thank u so much.
Boy-then sit on it and tell is it comfortable.
Ishita sat on the sofa putting the cushions and said -its very comfortable, thank u. She said putting her legs on the small table.
Everyone smiled and get back to their seat. Lecturer came and saw the arrangements done for her. They praised all and start teaching.
Ishita too get relaxed and start her study.
One night, ishra were sleeping cuddled in each other when ishita got up feeling some sensation in her stomach. She felt ticklish in her tummy and waked raman up. He got up in a jiffy and asked-kya hua jaan. Is everything alright.
Ishita didn't answered but took his hand and kept on her tummy and asked-did u felt it.
His eyes twinkled feeling the baby's kick and he nodded happily saying, she kicked.
Ishita smiled in sheer happiness and said-yes she kicked.
Raman smiled and sat more close to her and said bending to her tummy-hi princess, I am ur papa. U r very anxious to come out naa.i am also dying to take u in my arms. Come to papa soon. He said caressing her tummy making ishita smile. Soon ishita slept hiding in his arms while Raman was caressing her tummy all night waiting for kick from her.
Time was passing and now ishita was eight and half months pregnant. She was finding difficult to carry on her day to day actives and on top of that she was having her semester exams. She has to study for long hours to prepare well. Raman took off from his work and started taking care of her 24*7.ishita use to study while Raman use to make food and do all work with neelu's help. He use to wake up with her in nights and massage her swollen feet. He make milkshakes for her as she can't drink coffee or tea much.
Soon it was the day of her exam, he went to drop her. He made her sit on her place.
Ishita-ab aap jaiye raman. I am good.
Raman nodded and went out but his heart wasn't allowing him to leave her alone. He thought of something and went to dean's chamber.
Dean-yes, who r u. What u want.
Raman -see sir, my wife is giving her semester exams for second year. And she is eight months pregnant. So I want to sit with her in her exams.
Dean-r u out of ur mind. How can I allow this. It's exams, we can't allow any outsider.
Raman -I am understanding ur point but Aap bhi toh meri baat samjhiye. I just wanna sit with her to make sure that she is fine. Waise bhi I am not a doctor but lawyer, I don't know anything about medical, so I can't help her.
Dean-still we can't allow u. Don't bother about her ,she is in medical college , we will take care of her.
Raman -ok, then give it in writing. That my wife's safety is ur responsibility. And if anything happens to her then I am free to take any action against u. Just give me in writing.
Dean-oh really, u r scaring me. And if I don't give u that. Then what u will do.
Raman -then allow me, or else Raman Kumar bhalla knows ways to get his work done.
Dean got up hearing his name and said-u mean, raman bhalla, the famous lawyer.
Raman -yes, see sir I know u r bound by rules but trust me, I don't know anything about medical. Aur naa hi main Robot ka rajnikant hoon joh apni aankhon se answer bata doon. I just wanna be with her, aap mujhe baithne do, I will solve all ur legal problem free of cost.
Dean thought for sometime and said-ok, u can go to her. But remember u r not suppose to disturb anyone.
Raman nodded happily and went to her room. He saw question paper was being distributed. He went inside and went to the examiner. He explained everything to her and went to sit next to ishita.
Ishita who was busy in writing her paper, raised her eyes feeling his near her and was surprised seeing him actually beside her.
Ishita-aap yahan kya kar rahe hai. She asked with shocked expression.
Raman -taking care of u, now don't talk, just concentrate in ur paper. I am here only.
Ishita nodded and start writing her paper while Raman was feeding her fruits and juices in between making everyone smile.
Examiner came to her and said-if u want u can take ten minutes break, I will give u ten minutes extra.
Ishita-no ma'am I am good. She said writing her paper.
Examiner -ok. Saying so she went. Soon the paper got over and examiner started collecting papers when ishita start screaming in pain holding her tummy.
Raman got worried and start calling mihika while the examiner and the student left the paper and ran to ishita.
Soon she was taken to labour room while Raman was waiting outside. Mihika too came running to the labour room and went inside assuring raman that everything will be fine.
Raman was waiting out of the labour room when mihir too came. Raman hugged him tight and said-i am very nervous mihir.
Mihir -relax bhai, everything will be fine. He was saying when they heard the baby's cry. They ran and stand close to the door to get a glimpse of ishita or the baby but couldn't see anything.
After ten minutes, the door got opened and mihika came out holding a small baby in her arms. Raman and mihir went to her and saw the little baby looking around.
Raman smiled seeing the baby while mihika gave him the baby saying congratulations.
He hold her firmly and saw her closely. She was all pink and was looking around opening her big eyes, she was white with small golden hair. He softly pecked her temple and hugged her close to his heart. She cried feeling suffocated when he rocked her in his arms and soon she slept feeling his warmth.
Raman looked at mihika and asked-how is ishita.
Mihika-she is good, we r shifting her to the ward then u can meet her.
Raman nodded mouthing a thanks while she just hugged him saying congratulations. Mihir too joined the hug and later took the baby in his arms loving her.
Soon ishita was shifted to the ward, Mimi went and congratulated her when she asked for raman and the baby. That's when raman came taking their little baby in his arms. He settled beside her giving the baby in ishita's arms. Mimi went out leaving them alone.
Raman kissed ishita's forehead and said-thank u jaan, thank u for giving me the world. Thank u for making me a father.
Ishita hide herself in his chest and said-thank u for coming in my life Raman and making it complete. She said kissing the baby.
Raman said looking at the sky-thank u matarani for giving us our rooh, our little princess. Saying so he wrapped his arms around his little family smiling feeling contented and ishita just rest her head on his chest while little Ruhi was sleeping peacefully in her lap.
Aashiyana mera saath tere hai na
Dhundte teri gali mujhko ghar mila
Aabodaana mera haath tere hai na
Dhundte tera khuda mujhko rab mila
Tu jo mila lo ho gaya main kaabil
Tu jo mila toh ho gaya sab haasil
Mushkil sahi aasan hui manzil
Kyunki tu.. dhadkan main dil..
Ruth jaana tera, maan jaana mera
Dhoondh te teri hasi
Mil gayi meri khushi
Raah hoon mein teri
Tu hai tu meri
Dhoondh te tere nishaan
Mil gayi khudi
Tu jo mila lo ho gaya main kaabil
Tu jo mila toh ho gaya sab haasil ha..
Mushjil sahi aasaan hui manzil
Kyunki tu.. dhadkan main dil..
Oh Oo..
Tu jo mila lo ho gaya main qaabil
Tu jo mila toh ho gaya sab haasil ha..
Tu jo mila aasaan hui mushkil
Kyunki tu.. dhadkan main dil..
