Episode 5 – Part 3
She hands over the child to Dhaani who holds the little thing in her arms, both Viplav & Dhaani looking at the child. Their happiness touched the skies. Both look at each other smiling and then at the child again, who was still crying.
Dhaani : Oh ! Why is my chanda crying ? Hmm ?
Dhaani slowly brings her child near her face and puts a soft kiss on that little forehead, which made him stop crying. She laughs as he stops crying and while Viplav who was smiling at them.
Viplav : You won.
Dhaani looks at Viplav.
Viplav : The first one is a boy, like you wished.
Dhaani laughs softly and he then forwards his arms while she smiles at him handing over the child.
Viplav : (takes the child in his arms) Come to papa come to papa!
He was looking at the child with a big smile while Dhaani was looking at them smiling. Suddenly, again getting pain, her face expressions change into tension. She holds Viplav’s shirt in pain which makes him look at her. Seeing her again in pain, his smile gets vanished away and quickly holds her hand, his child on the second arm.
Viplav : Dhaani! Dhaani, relax! (looks at the doctor) Doctor, what happened to Dhaani?
Doctor : Don’t worry Mr. Viplav! It’s just her labor pain once again. They are twins na?
Viplav realizes that fact they were having twins and looks at Dhaani.
Doctor : Mr. Viplav, now that she is ok, you can wait outside, we will handle everything.
Viplav looks at the doctor and suddenly he feels Dhaani tightening her grip, making him look at her. He then looks at the doctor.
Viplav : No. I won’t leave Dhaani alone. I am ok here.
Dhaani closes her eyes in fear and Viplav bends his legs again to get closer to her face.
Dhaani : (crying) Viplav, it hurts a lot. I feel like dying.
Viplav looks at her tensed.
Viplav : Dhaani, look at me.
Dhaani opens slowly her eyes and looks at Viplav.
Viplav : Will you go away (shows her the child) leaving your child and me alone? (shakes his head) I won’t let you do anything like this Mrs Viplav!
He looks at the child indicating her to look at him.
Viplav : (speaks softly) Just wait and see, in 10 years, we will be walking on the beach with our 10 children.
And even in pain, Viplav made Dhaani laugh, which made her relax. She again tightens her hand grip more, hurting Viplav’s palm pinching it unconsciously. But Viplav couldn’t even feel that pain seeing Dhaani crying. She suddenly shouts a last time standing up a bit and slowly falls on the bed with relief. Seeing her breathing relieved, he looks towards the doctor again and smiles again in excitement realizing his guess was right. He then looks at Dhaani who was relievedly breathing, her eyes closed, and intensely kisses on her forehead. Feeling that kiss, a smile appears on her lips.
Dhaani : Both children are safe Viplav…
Viplav gets far from her face.
Dhaani : (eyes still closed) and me too.
Viplav : I told you right? I will never let you go far from me.
Dhaani opens her eyes and looks at him.
Viplav : These 7 months were enough for me to understand my mistakes and stupidity. Now and for the next 7 births, you are only mine and I will always be by your side.
Dhaani smiles listening to his words and then looks at their new born the doctor was holding, while Viplav stands up again.
Doctor : Congratulations once again Mr & Mrs Tripathi. After a little boy, now it’s a little girl. Now there won’t be any issue between both wishes. (laughs)
Both Viplav and Dhaani laugh, while the doctor hands over the little girl to her mother.
Doctor : Really! This is just a medical miracle. I still cannot believe that the three of you are safe finally.
Viplav : It’s God’s grace.
Doctor : I guess that more than God’s grace, it’s your true love towards each other that didn’t separate you from each other.
Viplav and Dhaani look at each other and smiling, hold their hands.
Viplav brings the baby boy out and shows it to others. All get a big smile and tears on their face seeing the little member. Viplav goes to Dulaari while the others gather behind Dulaari.
Viplav : Congratulations khakhi, (hands over the child) you have finally become naani.
Dulaari : (holds the sleeping child) Arey! Look at him.
Maya : (holds the baby’s hand) He is so cute! Just like his mother.
Viplav : Actually, (cute smile) this cuteness comes from me.
Dulaari giggles.
Maya : Oh really?
Viplav nods his head cutely and everyone smiles.
Prem : By the way how is Dhaani ?
Viplav : She is fine. Taking rest in her room.
Viplav smiles.
Radha : But… it was supposed to be twins right?
Nurse : (comes to them) Here is the baby girl.
They all look at the nurse and the child in her arms.
Maya : (jumps on the nurse) Hayye! Give her to me, I want to hold her.
Prem : Maya, careful! It’s a child, not a toy.
Maya : UFFO! Bhaiyaa I know.
She holds the child and looks at it amazed, while Radha joins her.
Maya : Such a doll! Bhabhi, look at her. Isn’t she so cute ?
Radha : (smiles) Of course she is.
Viplav looks at them and realizes something.
Viplav : Oh! Because of tension, I completely forgot to introduce myself. (goes to Prem) Hi! I’m Viplav, Viplav Tripathi.
Prem : Hi. Prem. Maya’s brother. And (shows Radha) this is Radha, my lovely wife.
Viplav : (smiles) Hi! Happy to meet you all.
Radha : (looks at Viplav and folds her hands) So are we!
Maya : Dhaani told us so many things about you.
Viplav : (shocked) Did she?
Maya : Haan. Her story, then the story of both you, like how hatred changed into friendship, and then love. How you guys got married and all.
Viplav smiles.
Maya : And that you are a lawyer also. I am also a law student actually.
Viplav : Oh wow! That’s great.
Dulaari : (look at them emotionally) They gave us shelter when we came without any identity to Mumbai.
Viplav goes to Prem and shakes his hand with his.
Viplav : Thank you so much Prem. If you guys were not there, then maybe I would have lost.. I don’t know how to thank you enough. What you have done is really something that I could never forget.
Prem : Don’t say so Viplav. I guess you would have done the same if you were me. And Dhaani is like my own sister. How can I not help my sister?
Viplav hugs him friendly while all look at them emotionally.
Radha : (looks at Viplav) Now that Dhaani is part of our family, then you and the two little ones are also part of it, right bhaiyaa?
Viplav smiles at Radha.
Precap – Everyone was in the room gathered around the babies and smiling.
Thanks for reading. Keep commenting and telling your views.
Well first of all a very BIG sorry to those who were really worried thinking about what could have happened to Dhaani but it was actually her labor pain. Everyone forgot the second child kya? Poor little girl xD Anyways finally both children are born safe and healthy, and so is the mother.
And one more thing, vey IMPORTANT thing. Now that I have been posting everyday, I have nothing to post anymore. So, I am sorry, but no more posts for a while until I have something fully written and ready to be read. I am telling this especially to some of you like (won’t mention but they will know I am pointing them)… Just kidding! I am not blaming you girls, but just informing you I won’t be posting for a while. But if you want, I will post some episodes of my second short story on ViDha till I have something to post about IKRS-AIFF. But anyways, I will see what I can do.
Thanks once again for reading. Get ready for anything as always. Suspense is just such a wonderful feeling… :p
With lots of love!
