HO HO HO! Santa Claus 🎅🏼 is happy to announce that FINALLY something new popped up in my pea-sized brain. Bonne lecture! ✌🏼
No proof reading, please forgive me in advance.
Warning : a little, intimate scene. *coughs* Nothing too much but, you know, always better to inform the little babies around.

Belated merry X-Mas everyone! Hope you had a blast. And never stop sharing happiness, smile around you. It's all about giving more than receiving. 🎁

~•~•~•~•~•~

"Stop moving Diya, let me fix your hair properly.", Zoya pulled Diya closer as she was standing on the dressing chair, adoring her fluffy turquoise blue and white dress against her soft hands.

"I look like Princess Elsa, hai na ? This dress is so beautiful. Thank you mumma.", Zoya softly pinched her chubby cheek as she finished her task.

"But my angel is much prettier than any princess Elsa.", Aditya entered the room adjusting his velvet red coat over his black shirt that accompanied a pair of jeans, admiring his women. "Beauty courtesy to mumma !"

Zoya couldn't help her smile as she glanced at her husband's admiration. "Well, papa is nothing less though."

"Undoubtedly! So handsome, charming, incomparable and even more glorious while standing by the most gorgeous right now.", he whispered the last words in her ear and Zoya elbowed giving him a 'your-daughter-is-here' look as he chuckled.

"Hey Diya! Wear this as well. It will suit your curls.", as he stood facing them and adorned her hairstyle with a white headband that matched the white glittery patterns on her dress.

"Perfect!", he held her chin up and kissed on the top of her head as she grinned when her mother drew a black dot behind her ear using her kohl.

"No bad eye should reach our precious baby. Neither tonight, nor ever."

~•~

"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to Diya! Happy birthday to you!"

Wishes and joyous screams loudly echoed in the huge garden as they celebrated the little daughter's birthday. Hoodas and Siddiquis were all reunited to celebrate the day that blessed their existence few years ago, the day their angel stepped into their lives, mending fences between the two families. Diya meant radiance, and as her name suggested, she was the brightening ray of sunshine they were gifted with.

"Diya, time to wish something darling!", Arjun smiled at her. "Close your eyes and ask anything you want, and then blow the candle. Whatever you'd ask will happen.", explained he sweetly.

She nodded her head in yes and closed her eyes, as if she was eagerly waiting to ask for something, for Him to fulfill her little desires.

"Dear God, I want you to give me a chotu brother or choti sister to play with. Mumma told me that you send kids to people. So like you sent me to mumma and papa, I want another baby for me so that I don't remain the only baby at home. I want a big family with papa, mumma, me, baby, daadu, daadi, naanu, naani, chachu and khala. Please! I promise I will always be a good child, listen to papa and mumma and do as they say, study well, I won't be a stubborn kid. I will be nice to everyone. I promise."

A wide grin appeared on her face as she read the words in her mind. Making everyone around wonder what the little soul could be telling to uparwale for this long.

As she slowly bent towards the candle, Aditya holding her for her not to fall, a church bell nearby suddenly rang in their ears and she blew the candles, not realizing her pure demands were very quickly accepted up there. The three of them cut the cake together and her parents started feeding her a little piece of it each first, together before taking her in a groupie hug to hear 'awww's echoing around. And soon after their turn, everyone from their family fed her blessing and wishing for the little one to always remain the sweet happiness in their life.

~•~

"Phewww! That was indeed a great day, wasn't that appi ? Had so much fun.", the sisters were chatting as they were cleaning the mess that got spread following the party.

"I agree Noor. It was tiring, but worth of it. Kids were so adorable moreover.", she chuckled reminiscing the funny events that occurred.

"Oh yeah! Playing with kids is such a joy na. Especially when there are many of them. Even Diya was so elated to have all her friends with her today. All the time she was smiling. And how pretty she was looking.", both sisters smiled remembering their little princess.

"Your Aditya jeeju will do anything for her to smile. His little angel matters the most after all. And he proved it again."

"No wonder he is the best. My own man is a complete dumbo, who doesn't understand my wishes."

"Don't you say anything bad about my devar.", Zoya patted on Noor's shoulder.

"There was a friend of hers that stood quite silent by the way. I had to play with him first to make him join Diya and her friends."

"You mean Rohit ? He's quite shy, and new in their school. But he's a good friend of Diya. He was just disturbed standing in the crowd, since he doesn't really attend parties, his mother said. Such a sweet boy he is. Who gets quite nervous in front of Aditya's antics though, poor boy.", Zoya giggled explaining as they finished their last chores.

"Uff! Finally we are done with the cleaning. Thanks Noor! Now go and sleep. You have office tomorrow right ?"

"Oh don't remind me that appi.", she groaned as Zoya caressed her head. "Anyways you also take rest! Good night appi."

"Good night mera Kohinoor!"

Zoya entered their room where Aditya, sat on the bed lost in deep thoughts, a shy smile on his lips, was waiting for her.

"Aren't you sleeping already ?", she said as she put the water carafe and clean glasses on the night stand.

He smiled wider as she walked to the dressing table to remove her accessories. "Was just waiting for you to come!"

She chuckled and walked to the bed. "Why ? Are you Diya that I should lull to bed ?"

"Is only Diya allowed to be lulled to sleep ?", he held her wrist and pulled her on the bed, making her laugh harder. "Leave me! I need to change."

Pushing his hand away, she walked back to the dressing table while he stood on his feet. He walked behind her as she continued her work before locking her stare with his through the mirror. She shied and focused back on her bangles removing them.

"It's quite late. Go and sl-", she was cut off when she felt his touch on her soft arms, brushing her skin in a soft manner before caressing her plastic bangles.

"Aditya... Aditya what are you doing ?"

"Nothing at all.", he breathed as he neared closer to her back. Holding her wrists, he hugged her from behind. "You were just looking way too breathtaking today. Just needed to tell you the fact."

"And is this how... you have to tell it ?", she hardly managed to talk as his breath fanned her neck. "Why ? Any problem ?"

"I need to change, please.", she tried to move out of his grip. "I have to sleep early, you as w-"

"Let me help you then!"

To Zoya's unawareness, he was already holding her blouse knot and as he pulled it untied in slow motion, she gasped in surprise. His finger tips sensuously moved on her bare back, sending shivers down her spine. He had the same effect on her even after years of marriage, and he enjoyed how much she was still affected by his mere yet passionate touch. Meanwhile he brushed her hair to stay on one shoulder, his left hand smoothly reached beneath her saree to her bare waist, his fingers playing the piano on her sensitive midriff. And unable to bear the ticklish effect any longer, she turned back to face him and caught a hold on his tank top. Pregnancy had certainly brought so much of glow on her appearance in these years and nothing looked so much more perfect in his eyes.

He pushed her on the nearest wall and his feet nearing her position, he cupped her neck pulling her closer by her hair and leant into her as he slowly, smoothly, desirably sealed her lips with his. She tasted like a fresh sweet peach, juicy and fruity. That unique flavour of hers he had been cherishing in his mouth since their first kiss, on that beautiful wintery and full moon night on that deserted hill in Shimla.

And so did she ; his minty toothpaste drove her weirdly insane as he breathed heavy in her mouth. She couldn't help but held his see-through shirt collar while his tongue caressed every inch inside her mouth, before landing on her swan neck, kissing and sucking her most sensitive spots. His hands took her curves in control, his teeth leaving his traces on her skin as she moaned adorably, giving him satisfaction and he pinched her soft waist, something he knew handled her senses faster.

"Don't do that! I wouldn't be able to...", she gasped breaking the lip lock but was left with no courage to word the sudden rush of emotions. "Wouldn't be able to what Zoya ?"

"Stop teasing me, will you ?", she frowned when he smirked wider. "Sorry, I can't."

Whispering so, he caressed her arm, starting from her wrist to her shoulder, willingly stopped his hand around the safety pin, and soon held the drape up in his hand before letting it fall down pooling around her ankles.

Everything that followed between the warmed-up people was just chemistry. As a precious smile appeared on Diya's face while deeply sleeping in the next room, believing her innocent wishes would be heard and become real, very soon.

~•~

Few days later...

"Aditya! Are you free ? I have a meeting in a hour, and there is no driver available."

"Yeah wait, let me finish my breakfast."

"My meeting cannot wait for this banana to be finished.", she checked her things one last time in nervousness. "Finish it in the car, will you ?"

"Why are you so tensed ? Your meeting is in a hour. And this is not the first time you are working on such big projects. Why are you being so hyper nowadays ? I need my breakfast to function well in the morning.", he narrowed his eyes as he munched on his fruit.

"I know... I just... anyways finish it fast.", she looked up at the wall clock as something tinged in her mind. "Wait! Is Diya still not awake ? I will check on her. She never sleeps this late in the morning."

"Diya! It's almost 9 in the morning beta and you are still asleep. Wake up ba-", she turned the lights on and got cut off as she saw Diya in deep slumber, before hearing soft whines. "Diya beta ?"

She dropped her bag on the little desk, ran close to her bed and sat next to her, before caressing her hair, eyes widening.

"Ya Allah! She is burning so much. How is that possible ?"

She suddenly looked at the air conditioner that got decreased. "Why is the temperature level reduced this much ? Marcus ! Victor !", her anger rose as she held the fragile and freaking body in her warm embrace, rubbing her back and covering her figure with the quilt.

"Zoya! Why are you s-... what happened?", Aditya in came quite annoyed of her morning behavior but stopped as she saw her holding a shivering Diya close to her, and rocking the baby. "What happened to Diya ?"

He ran and sat in front of them caressing her hair as he looked at Diya crying in fear, to sense the burning body. "She's burn-"

"Someone has decreased the level of temperature in her bedroom, and now she is all feverish.", Zoya muttered in worry as she kept warming her.

"What the hell ? But we checked on her before going to sleep. Who would... MARCUS ! VICTOR ! Where the hell are you all sleeping ? Come here immediately!", he screamed as he went to increase the temperature.

"Aditya, don't shout loud! Diya will get scared."

"Sir, you called us ?", the two servants reached the bedroom.

"Who made the AC colder than usual last night ? Don't you guys know she is fragile ?", as Aditya was bursting out his anger at them, all the others joined them in the room.

"Adi, let's not argue on this now. We should take Diya to the hospital right now. It's more important to care about her health first.", Aditya lifted Diya in his arms and ran outside to the car.

"Mona, please cancel all my schedules for the day. I won't be able to come today. Thank you!", as she finished, Zoya took Diya from Aditya and sat in the passenger seat, as she kept her covered fully.

~•~

"Doctor, how is she ?", Aditya and Zoya ran to the doctor as she came out of the room.

"Don't worry, she just caught a little cold, and a minor fever. But nothing critical by God's grace. She's given an injection, she will feel well very soon. Please keep faith, and don't panic."

"Doctor, can we see her ?", Aditya asked, worry still drawn on his face.

"Yes you can, but don't disturb her much. She is still in deep slumber." she walked away after smiling at the two parents and they walked in, followed by the other family members.

"Diya, my baby!", Zoya bent down to her level and kissed on her forehead, tears rolling down her cheeks. "Please don't ever scare me like this. Mumma cannot afford you in pain, you know that right ?"

"Zoya, bache please don't worry, doctor said she is fine, that it was just some passing fever. Just see, she will run back to you in full form within a few hours.", Harshvardhan held his hand on her shoulder as he comforted his bahu-cum-beti, controlling his own concern about their little granddaughter.

~•~

"Zoya beta, please have something.", Roshnaq forwarded a plate of fruit pieces to her daughter as she was staring at an asleep Diya down on the bed.

"I am not hungry ammi. I am fine.", replied she blankly not moving her eyes from her daughter.

"You haven't eaten anything since morning. Please have some fruit at least.", she sighed as Zoya didn't react.

"I know you are very much worried about Diya, a lot more since the incident. But the doctor told she was fine. She just needed to sleep. She will wake up soon on her own and come back to you.", she said keeping a hand on her shoulder.

"Doctors may tell ammi, but I won't be able to feel all right until she wakes up. Especially not, like you said it well, after that incident."

"Am-Ammi... my... our... ba-..."

"Shhhh Zoya, it-it's okay. Please calm down, you need to take rest."

"How am I supposed to calm down ? I... I lost our own ... our own child. I didn't ... didn't even let him breathe once on Earth. I am such ... a cruel m-mother. I am such a ba-", she whimpered as she tightened her hold around her mother's body.

"Stop it Zoya, please stop blaming yourself for whatever happened. It was an accident. You are not a-", Roshnaq caressed her hair trying to console Zoya but in vain.

"I was supposed to be careful, and take care of our child. But no... Aditya told me not to go out alone and I didn't listen to his words and... and I killed...", she whimpered hard and Roshnaq couldn't see her in pain.

"Zoya beta please calm down. Please relax.", Roshnaq held her head on the top of her daughter's tightening the hug. "Please stop for the sake of Diya at least."

"Di-Diya... where is Diya ? I want to see her. I need to see her, where is she ?", she pulled away from her mother's embrace and looked up at her, letting her have a look at her vulnerable state after the drastic incident.

"She's fine. Aditya is taking care of her outside. You just relax and take care.", she kissed on her forehead before caressing her daughter.

"Zoya!", the sudden yet soft call of her name made her heart beat faster and she opened her sleepy eyes to fall on Aditya holding her hands and entwining their fingers.

"Aditya... you"

"Shhhh! Don't strain yourself. I am here with you.", he wiped the fresh tear that rolled down her eye, and she leant in his hand as he cupped her face.

"Aditya, I-I'm sorry.", she held the cupping hand in both hers and drew it to her heart.

"Ammi told me everything. And I just wanted to slap your head hard for this. But my gentleman manners tied my hands.", he pouted as she kissed his hand in hers.

"Please don't leave me. I promise... I promise I will take better care of Diya. I will not let anything happen to her. But please don't leave me."

"Zoya, stop talking nonsense. Why would I leave you ? Please don't blame yourself. Yes I am angry at you for not listening to my words. But I know you would never hurt our c... c-child purposely. Then how would you cause their death ?", his voice quite shaking.

"I am sorry.", he shook his head in negative as he wiped her tears, and taken by the emotions, she pushed herself to him, not caring of the pain her body suffered with and hugged him tightly, as if her life depended on it only at the moment.

She was utterly hurt, and more guilty at all the recent happenings, for hurting her family. She knew how much they all were impatient for their second child. Aditya's wish to have four children was slowly becoming true. And this time he was even less nervous about parenting. Experience with their daughter was positive enough to believe another child would not be a trouble but just a bliss. And Diya's happiness was limitless. She was going to be big sister, and nothing else could have brought a wide smile on her innocent face. She started preparing the arrival of her baby brother or sister with her father and both were getting ready to pamper the unborn child, something that scared Zoya, yet made her laugh a lot. The sight of an excited father and elder sister would just melt her mother heart and well, supporting the new comer, she was not less cherished by the two. Quite a big plus point in the whole process.

"Mumma!", the soft voice of their little daughter broke the moment and, slowly breaking the hug and wiping the tears in discretion, the couple looked at the door where stood Diya followed by Arjun & Noor. "Diya! Diya, come to mumma baby!"

And not hesitating once, the little 2-year-old ran towards the hospital bed and helped by her father, she climbed up to her mother and enveloped her neck with her tiny arms, calming the lady in distress her mother was.

"Promise me you won't leave me. I wouldn't be able to breathe without you baby.", Zoya snuggled her head against the tiny corpulence while the younger siblings approached the young family.

"Diya not live without mumma. And Diya not like mumma tears. You promish not to cry.", she softly nodded her head to her little demand as she rocked her body rhythmically.

"Appi!", Noor couldn't hold herself and sat next to her sister before hugging the latter by her waist, while Arjun stood next to his brother who was totally shattered since he heard the news yet learned to control himself in front of his devastated wife.

"I can't let anything happen to Diya.", shedded she some tears as she remembered that tragical day. "She is our sole reason to be ammi. I just can't li-"

"My dearest ammi-in-law, can I have a talk with your daughter alias my wifey ?", Aditya tried to calm the atmosphere as he entered the room with a tray of food and sent the woman reassuring he would take care of her daughter.

"So Mrs Hooda, why are you so stubborn and not eating anything ?", he said taking a seat next to hers.

"Aditya please don't start now. I am not in the m-"

"And do you think I am ? Let me tell you I am doing this for me not for you.", she frowned at him confused.

"Yeah! Because if you remain this much stubborn not having any food, then Diya will scold me, not you. And I don't want to get scolded by my daughter, so you should eat this."

She smiled at his pout and imagining Diya scolding him, she started laughing.

"Don't laugh at me pagal and have something. If you have some love for your daughter's papa, and that you don't want me to be shouted at."

"Aditya, you're too much.", he held her wrist and took her to the couch by the wall.

"And I promise you, nothing will happen to our Diya. She's stronger than what we could believe. We will always be there for her. She will always matter us the most, and will be taken care."

She smile and let him feed her their favourite noodles when she suddenly felt dizzy and nauseous.

"Zoya ?! Z-Zoya, are you okay ? Is the food not good ?"

He was left unanswered as she ran to the washroom and threw up. Worried, he left the plate on the couch and went to help her. "Oh God! A-are you okay ? Wait, let me call a doctor."

"No Aditya, that's fine. I am okay."

"Are you sure ?", she nodded her head in yes as she smiled.

~•~

Lying an asleep Diya down on the bed back home the next day, Aditya let Zoya put the warm sheet on her tiny body.

"Let her sleep for a while. She certainly feels dizzy because of the medicine.", Zoya nodded and they both stood on their feet, when he noticed she was still feeling unwell.

"Zoya you don't look fine at all. Let's go and see a doctor sweetheart."

"Aditya, I am fine. It's just that I didn't eat much, so feeling tired.", she smiled to calm him.

"Let me bring you food and then sleep a little bit. I am here with Diya.", he said as they walked out of her room.

"Don't you have a flight today evening ?"

"Nothing matters more than both of you to me. I will call them and cancel but you, go to bed. I will be there in a while.", he ordered her showing his index finger.

"Okay okay captain. I will go immediately."

As she entered the room, she sat on the bed and relaxed herself, nausea engulfing her mind. She held her temples and massaged softly when a feeling of déjà-vu hit in her head. Sitting on the bed, nausea, dizziness, vomiting, her sudden mood swings... she suddenly looked up for her dates and everything seemed even more doubtful. "Is it happening for real again ?"

"Zoya here your...", Aditya entered the room holding a tray of food for the both of them.

"Aditya, you were right. Let's go for a check up."

"Huh b-but why all by sudden Zoya ? What happened ? Anything serious ? Do you prefer me to call one home instead ?"

"Aditya, I need to clear something. Please let's go. I will just ask Noor to stay with Diya.", she pushed him to agree as she looked worried.

"Okay, I am waiting outside."

~•~

As Aditya was waiting in the cabin, Zoya joined him in the room along with Dr. Inayat, holding a tension-filled smile. "Baby, are you okay ?"

"Don't worry Aditya, they are all well and healthy.", he looked at her confused. "Congratulations both of you, you are soon going to be parents again."

Silence trailed off her announcement as Aditya looked surprised at their lady doctor.

"You mean that... Zoya...", wanted he to hear it again, while Zoya blushed looking at the spark in her husband's eyes at the sudden news. "Yes, she's pregnant. Of 2 weeks."

~•~

"WHAAAAT ?!", they closed their ears as their family, including Zoya and Noor's parents who joined them at the Hooda house, screamed in shock.

"Hey bhagwan, thank you so much!", Anjana folded her hands running to the temple.

"Oh my God!! Bhai, bhabhi, congratulations to you guys.", Arjun jumped in his brother's arms out of excitement.

"Zoya beta, you again made us all so happy today. I am going to be grandfather again.", Waseem stood in front of her and cupped her face, as Aditya smiled.

"Thank you abbu."

"Don't talk about yourself only Siddiqui saab, even I am going to be daadu again. Woohoo!", Aditya chuckled at their two fathers and held Zoya's hand in contentment.

"Our house is going to hear baby cries again. May the Lord be praised! Here have this laddoo Zoya.", Anjana came back to the expecting woman and fed her a sweet.

"Mah, even I am going to be father, again. Won't I have a sweet ?", Zoya pinched his cheek as he pouted at his mother.

"Here! Have all these sweets bhai. After all, you're equally deserving the credits for the happenings.", Arjun pulled their legs giving him a mouthful of sweets as Zoya blushed hard looking down at their entwined hands.

"Arjun, that was gross. One day, it will happen to you, and then see how we will tease you.", he made his little brother and sweet saali blush hard as everyone laughed at their faces.

"Stop it both you naughty boys! And Zoya, why are you still standing there ? Come and have a seat dear.", Anjana asked.

"Still can't believe it means someone else is soon going to call me 'chachu' ?", Arjun told as he sat next to his brother, who patted on his back.

"Yes chote.", both brothers side hugged at the thought.

"And me 'khala' ?", they nodded in yes.

"And me naani ..."

"And I will be..."

"Yes yes, everyone will be called daadu, daadi, naanu, naani, chachu, khala.", Zoya giggled and looking at Aditya as he tried to talk.

"It's time to welcome the new Hooda-Siddiqui member."

"Who are you talking about papa ?"

They all turned back towards that voice and fell on Diya standing there, holding her doll and rubbing her eyes.

"Diya ? Why are you not taking rest princess ? You are not well na ?", Zoya interrogated.

"I don't want to sleep alone, I want to stay with you.", she slowly walked to her mother.

"Okay fine, come here.", and she sat on her mother's laps as she looked around, smiling weakly at the small family reunion for the night.

"Mumma, is someone coming home to meet us ?", asked she again as she looked back at her mother.

"Yes yes, that too very soon Diya.", sat next to Zoya, Noor squeezed Diya's hand holding her excitement on her face.

"Who khala ?", she asked.

"Diya beta, get ready to welcome someone littler than you in the family.", Arjun continued turning round the topic and smiled as she remained confused.

"Someone little ? Who will come chachu ? Please tell na!", she walked to her uncle and impatiently asked him to tell.

"Chachu wanted to mean that you should get ready to become more responsible, because your little brother, or sister, is soon to join the family.", Aditya pulled her to him on his laps and ended the guessing game while she looked at him, eyes widened.

"What ?", she gasped. "My li-little ... baby brother or sister ?", Diya finally asked after a long silence, her weakness vanishing in the air. "I am going to have a baby brother or sister ?"

Zoya looked worried at her shocked reaction. "Yes beta, you're going to become big sister. W-why ? Are not you hap-?"

Zoya got cut off as the little Diya slid down his legs and ran to her room, leaving them all confused. "Aditya, Diya..."

"Zoya, calm down. She's still little. She maybe needs some time to understand it. Don't worry!", Aditya walked up to her and held her by her shoulders.

"What if she is still upset about ...", she said fidgeting her fingers in worry.

"Let's check on her. Stop worrying I said!"

~•~

"Thank you God! You've heard my wish and you are sending my chotu home. Now even I have someone to play with finally, like my friends. I am going to have a baby brother or sister. Chotu is coming home.", eyes closed and hands folded, she kneeled down in front of her room window and talked looking at the sky as He smiled blessing her with happiness.

"Diya ?! Where are you ? Why are you sitting there ?", as she heard her father, she stood on her feet and looked back, surprising him as she hugged his pair of legs tightly, when Zoya entered the room as everyone left the family alone.

"Papa, when is chotu coming home ?", she exhaled in excitement.

He broke the embrace and both parents kneeled down, confused at Diya's sudden change of reaction.

"Are not you upset ?", she asked.

"Why upset ? I am not.", she smiled big. "My wish is finally getting fulfilled. I am so happy.", she clapped her hands.

"But we thought...", she cut her mother off.

"Please tell na mumma, when is my baby sibling coming home ? When will he or she play with me like Keerthi's sister plays with her ? Papa, you at least tell me na when he will come here. Can he also sleep with me ? I will have to get my room ready then, right ?"

Zoya smiled through her hidden tears as she felt relieved about the turn of events. They feared the news were about to break their princess' heart, for a reason that broke the constant line of happiness almost 3 years ago. But here she was all more excited to play with her little baby sibling than they even thought. And her happiness meant more than anything for the two.

"Chotu will soon come home my doll. You have time to get everything ready before he or she comes. And yes, he will play with you, but not as soon as he comes. He will need to grow up a little first."

"But why ? And soon means how long papa ?", the young parents chuckled as she was getting quite impatient.

"You will have to wait a little long sweetheart. Your sibling will come only after 9 months.", Zoya said holding her arms.

"9 months ? But that's too long mumma. Please ask him to come sooner.", she pouted at their reply.

"That's just 9 months baby, and then he will stay with you only. This soft big baby of ours also took 9 months before we could even hold her in our arms.", he said cupping her face.

She sat down crossing her arms as her pout made Aditya and Zoya smiled at each other. "Where is the baby now ?"

Zoya held her wrist pulling her closer and Aditya observed his wife as she took her little hand to her tummy. "Here."

As she looked intently at her mother's stomach, she frowned. "But there is nothing. It's too flat."

"That's what we are saying. The baby needs time to grow up inside mumma, that will take 9 months. And until he comes, this little baby and mumma will have to be taken well care of. Now tell me, will you help your papa take care of both mumma and chotu ?", Aditya asked.

She smiled and nodded, before hugging them both together. "I love you papa and mumma. Thank you for making my wish come true.", she tightened her hold.

"And we love you too, we will always.", Aditya kissed on her cheek while Zoya caressed her back, before smiling in relief at each other, their hearts satisfied that this sweet happiness was soon to be complete.
