It was 8pm & Naina was relaxing after a long tiring day. Nitin came & sat beside her. He admired her mehendi…..a tear just escaped his eyes & fell on her palms. Naina just got up…
Nitin: Hey Naina easy......you looked an angel today. You are the most beautiful God’s creation that I possess. My heart is beating faster today….I am feeling alone. I fear I will loose you. Saying this he lowered his head.
Naina was confused. Why Nitin? What is bothering you?
Nitin: I heard women go through labour pain during child birth…I can’t see you in pain Naina…I fear that day. I am…I… Naina could not handle so much love. She hugged him tight & said, “But the pain will be worth it. Trust me. We will be parents to a beautiful child after that. Just pray God we should be safe. He has made us wait this long to make us realise the worth of the impending gift.”
To ease out his worries, she changed the topic. Nitin…. Do you want a boy or a girl? I know this is a standard question but still.
Nitin: I want another Naina. Little Naina…& you?
Naina: Children are gifts so anything will do…but a girl is close to my heart.
