Chapter 2
. . .
"it's okay Kabir, mein help karti hun na?"
Nimisha said lovingly as she stroked Kabir's hair.
Kabir: "Nimisha, mein yeh akele karna chahta tha taaki meri princess ko pata ho uske papa kya kar sakte hein"
Nimisha: "abhi toh 1 month bhi nahi hua kabir, aur yeh Prince bhi toh ho sakta hai na?"
After Kabir and Nimisha had found out they were expecting a little bundle, Kabir decided to cook dinner for her but failed as he messed up the kitchen and had to call her at last for aid.
Nimisha smiled as she eyed her growing belly.
. .
Later at night,
Kabir cuddled Nimisha as she read a fairy-tale aloud in bed.
Kabir: 'Nimisha, mein bohot excited hun"
Nimisha smiled as she wrapped her arms around him.
He cuddled her closer and kissed her forehead, and further her face till their lips touched.
. .
After 10 minutes,
Kabir: "I don't want to exhaust you, Goodnight Nimisha"
Nimisha: "good night Kabir"
. .
Kabir: "kahan gayi thi tum, raat ke 9 baj rahein hein?
When one day, Kabir arrived home after work, he found locked door. Fortunately for him, he had spare keys but when Nimisha's phone wasn't reachable, he got worried.
2 hours later Nimisha arrived.
Nimisha: "mein office gayi thi Kabir, ek book review karne ke liye bulaya tha boss ne"
Kabir: "Thik hai jao, mat rakhna apna dhyan okay? Aaj office gayi thi kal disco mein chali jaana aur parso roller coaster par baith jaana" He almost shouted sarcastically.
Nimisha: "Kabir-"
Kabir: "haan kya? mein kuch nahi sunna chahta Nimisha, mein 24 ghante nahi reh sakta tumhaare saath toh iska matlab kuch bhi karogi?"
Nimisha: "I am sorry Kabir, ab shaant hojao please"
Kabir: "mein kaise shaant hojau? tum meri princess ka bilkul dhyaan nahi rakhti ho."
Nimisha smiled and hugged him to calm him down, and promised to take care of herself and his princess or prince whosoever.
. .
9 months later,
Kabir's eyes almost welled up in tears as the nurse brought his daughter to him. She carefully placed her in Kabir's arms and left.
Kabir's hold on her was firm but gentle. The baby was deep asleep. He kissed her forehead.
Kabir went into Nimisha's room.
Kabir: "dekho Nimisha, humaari Princess"
Nimisha opened heavy eyes and smiled but they were soon closed again a he kissed her, after placing the baby by her side.
Kabir then took his little bundle of joy in his arms again and squeezed her against his chest and placed innumerable kisses on her head. Nimisha laughed.
Nimisha: "humaari princess ka naam kya rakhein? Cinderella ya Snow White? Tinker bell kaisa rahega?"
Kabir: "humaari princes ka naam hoga Nishi"
The little girl wrapped her hand around his finger as he said this. Kabir smiled, the baby too laughed.
. .
Kabir had taken a month off from CID Bureau to take care of his princess and wife. Nimisha's mother too came over at their place.
Nishi's daadi and naani were pampering her by sewing cute sweaters, socks and mittens for her.
. .
"Nimisha thankyou"
said Kabir, as he entered the room and saw Nishi and Nimisha sleeping alongside.
Kabir leaned towards Nimisha, and kept a hand over her cheek but before anything Nishi started to cry.
Kabir: "are mera baccha, rone kyun laga? hmm?"
Kabir picked Nishi in his arms and cuddled her.
Kabir: "kya meri Nishu ko koi chotta bhai ya behen chahiye hmm bolo?"
Nimisha blushed.
Nimisha: "nahi ji"
Kabir laughed.
*BOOM*
A big Diwali cracker burst outside their house, Diwali was near and the crackers were a obvious sight. Nishi started to cry uncontrollably.
Nimisha: "Shh, baby bas, chup hojaao Nishu"
as she held Nishi close. but Nishi wouldn't stop crying.
She cried uncontrollably for 10 minutes without being affected by Kabir and Nimisha's efforts to calm her down.
Nimisha held her close as a tear dropped her eye too.
Nimisha: "bas Nishu bas, dekho aap roo rahe ho toh mumma ko bilkul accha nahi lag raha"
Kabir too felt sad and hugged Nimisha and Nishi together.
Kabir: "ab mumma ya Nishi koi bhi nahi roega"
Nishi stopped crying and rested her forehead on Nimisha's shoulder. She soon was asleep.
Kabir pulled up the blanket over himself, Nishi and Nimisha. Kabir and Nimisha's forehead touched as Nishi slept peacefully between them.
. .
2 years later,
It was a winter Sunday. Kabir woke up to find that neither Nishi nor Nimisha were beside him. He washed his face and brushed his teeth before and went into the kitchen.
Nishi, wearing an oversized Daddi knitted sweater, was sitting on the kitchen slab cutely looking at Nimisha while Nimisha cooked breakfast. Kabir's smiled wide.
He placed a big kiss on Nishi's cheek who wiped it off with her small hands and hugged daddy. Nimisha smiled.
Kabir hugged Nimisha from the back and kissed her nape. She flinched.
Nimisha: "Kabir, kya kar rahe ho, Nishi baithi hai"
They looked at Nishi who was looking at her parents, big-eyed in the most innocent possible look.
Nimisha removed Kabir's hands from her waist. Kabir kissed her forehead as she turned.
. . .
Few hours later,
Kabir, Nimisha and Nishi went to the mall for weekend shopping. Kabir couldn't help but obsess over buying a ton clothes for Nishi.
Later the family settled for lunch.
Nishi sat on baby chair having salted French fries with red sauce in front of her, her eyes glittering. Soon, her face and hands were all smeared with sauce.
Nimisha bent to clean her face but instead Nishi kept a hand on her mummy's face, making a sauce handprint. Nimisha went to the washroom embarrassed to wash her face.
Nishi was crazily giggling as Nimisha came back. She asked Kabir the reason but he shrugged his shoulders.
Nishi again leaned to make a sauce handprint on Nimisha's face but Nimisha held her and cleaned her hands.
. .
Kabir was reading out bedtime story for Nishi, who sat in his lap. Nimisha too carefully listened the story resting her forehead on Kabir's shoulder. After a while, they realized Nishi was already asleep clutching daddy's t-shirt in her tiny hand.
Nimisha and Kabir smiled locking eyes.
