Her point of view –
“Pie go up with the kids..”.
“But papa.”
“Maine kaha na upar jao..” he says his voice intimidating..
My sister and me head upstairs with the kids as Junior starts to scream..
After Junior is fed and has calmed down i move my attention to the baby who is looking at his surroundings in awe..
“Do you want to talk about it..?” My sister says.
“It was his decision and i am supporting it..” i say..
“Are you sure about it .?”
“He is..” and she smiles in response..
His point of view –
I was not expecting this kind of reaction from Papa..I was hoping him to be more supportive..
But then again when has he approved of my life choices..
“Bhai..Don’t you think you should have spoken to Papa before taking such a big decision .?”
“As if he has ever considered me before taking any decisions..” i snap.
Whats with everyone telling how to manage my family..?
“Bhai that’s not the point.. its a big decision..”
“I know ..and i would like you to support me on this”
“I do bhai.. i do but i am worried about bhabhijaan..”
“Me too i hope i am not over burdening her..”
“I am sure she will figure something out..”
“Yes i know she is simply genious..and i am so proud of her..” i say with a smile..
I go upto our room and Pie is busy with the kids..
I take my time to admire her and my beautiful kids before walking in.
“How is it going love..?”
“I think we should give him a name..” she says motioning over to the baby who is very intrigued with Junior and currently busy just observing him..
“I like the name Jhonny Jr ”
“But i like Jhonny the second …Has a royal ring to it..”
“Anything for you my love anything” i say and can’t stop myself from kissing her cheek..
Junior dsn’t seem to like it and he starts to cry which suprises J.J who starts to cry too..
“Take him out .. let him play with Titli and the twins..” she says as she picks up junior rocking him gently ..
“Can we play with him..?” Its the twins and no surprise that they are super exited.
I remember when Titli and Junior were born they used to take turns to snuggle with the babies..
“Yea ofcourse ..where is titli..?”
“She is having lunch with momaa”
“Oh..okay ..can you look after him.?” I say and put him down on the ground.
“Yes yes ..”
“Bhabhi..” i call out entering the kitchen..She is feeding mashed vegetables to Titli..
“I was about to come to you..”she says.
“Me why .?”
“Lets go to the ashram and get his things.. and rest he can share it with Titli..” she says ..
“Thank you ..”
“Hey thats what family is for…Me and John are going to be always there with you” she says and hugs me while titli claps..
“Are you done princess.?” I coo to her..
I clean her up before picking her up while bhabhi cleant her mess ..
“Lets go to play baby .lets go..” i say putting her down and she dissapears..
She is just too fast.
Before heading to the ashram i check up on J.J..
The twins are tickling his tummy as he laughs uncontrollably..
“Its okay …i got him..” John says patting my back..
Me and bhabhi make our way back to the ashram to get his things..
This boy dsn’t have much just a couple of clothes and a bag of diapers..
“Is that it..?” I question looking at his stuff..
“Yes..” It can come as a complete shocker if you are one of the city spoilt kids but thats the way it is here..
“We should head back .. we have a flight to catch..”and we get back to the house..
Her point of view-
“Baby..wake up baby .everyone is waiting for you at the lunch table .”
I din’t realize that i had dozed off while putting Junior to sleep.
“Hmm..yea i am coming..”
“Come soon..” he says kissing my cheek and walks out..
I place Junior carefully in the center of the bed and pillows beside him.
He needs to sleep so that i can be there for J.J on the plane home..
When i get to the table i don’t see Papa anywhere..
“Where is he..?” I whisper to mom.
“Like father like son …still brooding..” she says and laughs..
“I’ll just come .” I announce..
“Where are you going .?” Dex questions..
“I think i heard something from Junior.” I say and quickly run upstairs..
I feel his gaze follow me so i walk into our room.
Covering Junior up with a blanket i make my way to Papa’s room.
“Papa”
“Ha bete.”
“Aap humse naraz hain ..?”
“Nai beta its just that i wish Jhonny considered me as a part of his life .. I know he is a family man now and old enough to take his decisions but still i am his father..”
I tell him about our conversation from the night before by the end of it he is in tears..
“I din’t know it effected him that much..”
“It did..but now we have a come a long away..don’t worry about it.” I say sitting down next to him..
“Bless you beta..” he says
“You need to stop worrying and just enjoy your time with your grandchildren..”
“Yes thats what i am going to do now .” He says with a content smile..
His point of view –
I know Pie has gone to talk to Papa and i let her do so because i know he needs to calm down and who can be better than her..
The cool cucumber from all of us ..
Papa comes down as Pie takes her seat next to J.J..
This is his first family meal…
Suprisingly he comes and hugs me..
“I love you Papa and i am sorry for earlier..”
“I love you too Jhonny and i have a surprise for you.but you gotta wait till we get homee..” he says before settling down in his chair at the head of the table.
