Part : 29

Kripa is relaxing in her room after the godhbharai function.. Everyone left after the function and dinner. Diya and dadi are sleeping. Naina is talking to Dilipa and asking to comeback soon as date of delivery is coming close. Angad came into the room after finishing his work. Kripa smiled as soon as he came. He took her in his hands and caressing. "thuk gayi ho?"
Kripa nodded her head and rest her head on his chest. "Main bahut kush hoon Kripa! Tumhe aur trouble hone nahin doonga. Iss baar ladka hai bus ek ladki ek ladka. You became so weak and sensitive" Angad showed his concern. Kripa smiled and says"yeh koyi trouble hai ek aurat ke liye. I'm enjoying this pregnancy. Pehle baar maa bann na puri tarah experience ho raha hai. Haan thoda takavat tho hai magar wo bhi mujhe manjoor hai".
Angad kissed on her forehead and allowed her take rest.
Three weeks passed and one fine morning Kripa is started feeling uneasiness. She told Angad and Angad told to dadi and Naina. They rushed Kripa to the hospital. Misthy casually called dadi and found the news and she rushed to the hospital too. After few hours struggle Kripa delivered a baby boy. Diya is pleading Angad that she will hold the baby. Dadi is warning her not to touch the baby yet and wait till go back home. Naina smiled and convinced dadi and put the baby in Diya's lap mostly she holding the baby. Diya is excited to see the tiny tiny hands and legs and tried to kiss him but Kripa warned not to put her mouth to him and explained what happens if she does. Diya agreed and took promise from Kripa that she will carry him all the time after going home. Everyone felt happy on Diya's excitement.
Angad took kripa's hands when everyone left for home to have their meals. Kripa looked weak and tired. Angad again felt bad but Kripa started asking again another child and Angad surprised. Kripa blushed and told she is not satisfied with one child. Angad kissed her forehead and agreed for her desire and both laughed for their conversation.
The doctors told Kripa can be taken home after two days. Angad took her home along with Diya.
The whole house is decorated with balloons and welcoming banners to the baby and gifts to the baby. When Kripa is taking the baby to her room Diya insisted to take to her room first and won. After spending a few minutes in Diya's room they brought the baby to Kripa's room. After two days, on weekend all the friends came to see the baby.
Siddarth announced that shanti is also on family way and all congratulated the couple. Siddarth came to Kripa and says"Kripa! hum ladki ko hi janam denge aur wo tumhara prateek ki biwi banegi and you have to promise for it".
Misthy came in between and says"yeh jabardasthi kya hai Siddu? L;adki wale ho thodasa sar jhukakar mango". She demanded Siddarth and Shanti.
Siddarth grinned at her and says,"nahin Misthy! Jab Kripa India aayi thi aur Angad ko yaad nahin kar rahi thi mainey socha iss sey shadi kardaloo. But mamla phalat gayi. So at least let us have her son in our family".
"Haan Misthy didi! Yeh hamesha aisey hi kehtha rehthe hai. Mujhe wo pyar ki koyi problem nahin hai magar mujhe Angad jaisa pathi hi chahiye meri beti ke liye", Shanti gave her judgment supporting her husband.
Angad touched his shirt collar and winked at Kripa.
Everyone laughed at them. Kripa blushed.
Prithvi interfered and asked Siddarth"abb beta huvey tho?"
Siddarth again grinned and says "To Kripa fir beti ke liye try karna padega. She has to give a child in my family and that's firm."
Angad says "I'm ready for the deal tum kya kahogi Kripa?"
Kripa blushed and warned Angad with eyes.
Prithvi and Misthy says,"kripa no sign languages. Siddarth ki maang puri karna padega".
Kripa blushed again.
Everyone laughed.
Dilip came at same time finishing his work and apologized to Angad for not being at the hospital at crucial time. Angad asked him to relax since Naina aunty was there to take are of Kripa.
Everyone enjoyed the day and took leave from Angad and Kripa promising they will attend the naming ceremony for the baby though they already know the name 'Prateek".
