His sleep broke middle of night. He frowns finding the other side of bed empty. Rubbing his eyes and glancing at the time he climbs down bed and starts waking towards the cot and looks so confused and worried finding it empty.

He starts panicking and ruffles his hair while rushed to balcony hoping he would find them but no luck no one was in the balcony.

He took a deep breath and rushed outside of the room and deeply sighs when he heard giggles and laughter from downstairs. He look while climbing the stairs finding his whole family and friends seated in living hall trying to calm his little boy who couldn't stop crying.

He got worried and starts looking who his wife who was nowhere to be found. He pushed his friends away and scooped his son up from his father arm and starts calming him down.

Neil : it's okay. Look who is here. Look papa is here. Why are you crying?

He looks at his friends and his father who looks at Neil with a smile adoring on their faces.

Neil : why are you guys  still awake? Where is Avni? Where is other ladies? Why is he crying so much? What happened? Can someone explain me?

He yells at them who haven't really told him what happened earlier and reasons why his is son crying nonstop. He looks at his son and strokes his cheek gently wiping the tears off and strolls around the room holding him close to his chest and hoping he would stop crying.

His eyes snaps at kitchen away where his wife stood holding their daughter in her arm and the rest ladies behind her. He sighs in relief seeing them safe.

Hr rushed towards them and placed a hand on her cheek. He gently strokes it her cheek while glancing down at his daughter.

Neil : where did you go Jaan? I got worried and so many negatives thoughts crossed in my head.

Avni : I'm sorry Neil. I was in kitchen. When do you wake up?

Neil : I woke up not finding any of you in the room. I got worried and surprised finding the whole family awake middle of night. Should I he worried and concerned at same time?

Avni : I'm sorry Neil. I didn't wanted to disturb you. He starts crying and have fever. I got worried when mom comes knocking our bedroom. She told me to come out with them and the rest follows followed hearing his cry. 

Neil : he has stopped crying. Should we take him to hospital? I'm really worried. Will he be okay? Do we need to see a doctor?

Avni : no Neil. I have spoken to doctor. It's normal for them to get fever. He will be okay.

Neil looks very concerned and worried about his son who's body is hot. He looks at his mother who blinks her eyes assuring him he will be fine. He sighs and cooed his son closer to his son and took a glimpse of his daughter who was faster asleep in Avni's arms.

Neil : she's asleep Jaan. You should put her to bed.

She looks at Neil then down at her daughter who slept after crying while ago. She nodded her head and looks at everyone who was gathering around them.

Avni : we are very sorry bothering you guys all this late. You should also go back to sleep.

Neil : yes! We are very sorry. Please go back and sleep. We have to get up early tomorrow morning.

The family shook their head and wishing the couple goodnight headed back to their respective rooms. Neil looks at his wife and smiles planted a kiss on side of her head.

Neil : Jaan, shall we head to our room?

She nodded her head and starts walking up the stairs. He shook his head and went to behind her. He put his son down on bed and caressed his cheek lightly. He then looks at his daughter who was beside his son. He smiles and bending his body over kissed her forehead.

He opens his arm as his wife joined them. He gestures her to come closer to which she shook her head and eyes their babies who slept between them.

Neil sighs and bends over his babies pecking his wife forehead and smiles seeing her smile.

Neil : goodnight Jaan! Don't worry about them. They will be okay. We can visit doctor tomorrow if is needed.

Avni : you're right Neil. Goodnight.

She also kissed his forehead and the babies before closing her eyes to get some sleep. Neil wraps his arm around his wife while other rested between his babies. He adores this moment and hoped cherish all the moments with his wife and children.

He couldn't sleep because he was too worried wondering what if anything's happens to his children. He stayed awake whole night watching over his precious family.

His eyes starts to doze up. He didn't realise when sleep knocks him out. His eyed flicks opens hearing cry. He looks at his wife who was sleeping. He looks at his daughter who wouldn't stop crying.

He got up and moving little scoops his daughter bringing her into his arms. He smiles founding his daughter too adorable. He strokes her cheek and gets down the bed walking to balcony not before wrapping her properly so she doesn't get ill.

Holding her in his arms he strolls around the balcony and watched his daughter cry slowing down. He smiles and bending down pecks her forehead.

He walks back inside the room and found his wife already up holding their son in her arm. He went to bed and sat down opposite her.

Neil : he also woke up. They are not going to let us sleep tonight.

She chuckles looking at him then her flicks over to the clock.

Avni : Neil. It's almost morning. Look at the time. You should be ready from now because your babies will keep you on your toes. They won't let anyone of us sleep.

Neil sighs and looks at the time in frustration. He wanted to sleep but he also more than happy to be experiencing this whole phase of his life. He yawns covering his mouth and looks at Avni who laughs out seeing him being so sleepy.

Avni : Neil. You should put her to bed. There is some time for the puja. You can sleep. I'll wake you up later. I'll shower and get them ready while you sleep.

Neil : thank you so much Jaan. You're blessing to me.

He kissed her forehead and puts his daughter on the bed and climbs on bed on his side laying down closing his eyes.

She shook her head and looks down at her son who looks at her while drinking his milk. She smiles and starts talking to him.

Her giggles echoed in the room. She got down the bed and rushed to get his clothes out and rushing back to bed puts on on bed. She got him ready and looks at him who asleep after his fed.

Kissing his forehead and looking at her husband and babies who were cuddled with each other her heart flutters seeing them like this.

While they were sleeping she thought up getting ready. She ties her hair in bun and getting down the bed went to washroom to freshen up.

Her wet hair following behind on her back as she focused on fixing the saree pleats. Moving to dressing table she starts combing her hair and clipped it for time being. She didn't put her wake up or wore any jewellery as she had to feed her babies after they wake up.

Looking at herself reflection she sighs and turns back walking towards bed and moving near to Neil's side and bending down calls his name out.

Avni : Neil. Neil wake up.

His eyes flicks open and snuggles into duvet not bothering to open his eyed fully. Her voice were sweet and soft that made him smile even in his sleep.

He opens his eyes and looks at his wife who was dressed in purple saree looking simply beautiful without jewellery or make up on. He rubs his eyes and resting his head on headboard sits up looking  at her.

Neil : you're so beautiful Jaan. I can't even explain in few words what your beauty means. Its beyond my imagination.

Avni : thank you for compliment Neil. Please get up and take shower. We will be late for puja. You do remember today we will be making our babies.

Neil nodded his head and getting down the bed cups her face and kissing her forehead went to washroom. She looks at her daughter who woke up crying. She went other side scooping her in her arm and sat down lifting her blouse up to feed her.

Neil comes out of washroom and looks at them. He ruffles his hair and went towards dressing table. He wore a watch on his left wrist and spraying perfume over his body he glanced himself in the mirror.

He went back to bed and looks at them. He scooping his daughter looks at his wife.

Neil: Jaan, you should get ready. I'll dress her up.

She nodded her  head and leaving all the things on bed walks to dressing table getting ready. She could hear Neil talking to their daughter in baby language. She laughs turning her head around looking  at them.

Neil : my princess will get ready. Papa will helping his princess to get ready. Are you excited princess.

He did what he was told before he starts putting some warm clothes around her. He held her in his arm and kissed forehead.

Neil : my beautiful princess. You look so pretty in this dress. Mamma have good choice including us.

He giggles as he watched her staring his face not understanding what he was saying.  He shook his head and looks at his son who woke at the same time and wanted his father attention.

Neil smiled scooped him in his arms. Holding both of them he got up and looks at his wife who was still getting ready.

Neil : Jaan. I'll take them downstairs. You take your time and get ready. I'll go down and see the preparations.

She nodded her head wearing few bangles in her both wrists. Neil looks at his babies and whispering few words to them walks out of the room.
