.... Kabir...
After a week full of pampering my queen we could finally take her home along with my babies. I collected her reports from the reception and moved towards her room. I knocked and after being answered my a come in I moved inside. She had just finished feeding the two most precious beings in my life. I walked towards her and placed a peck on her forehead to which she smiled. Since she was all packed, we moved out of the hospital thanking the authority. I buckled both the kids on the baby chair arranged in the back seat, and opened the door of the passenger seat for Preet, as she stood there dazzling in a white and green punjabi suit.
I bowed in front of and motioned her to move in. She let out a hearty laugh at it. These days have been pretty stressful for her.
Everyone was already waiting for us. I carried Araj as Preet held Abeer in her arms we moved towards the entrance where maa was waiting with handful of red chillies just to turn away the evil eye from us and especially her daughter. Once she was done she asked us to enter. I asked Kavya and Aryan to come ahead. Kavya was confused while Aryan smirked. I handed Araj to her Mama while I asked Kavya to take Abeer. Preet looked at me confusingly. I winked at her and bent a little picking her up in bridal style. She let out a squeal while the others laughed.
She hid her face in the crook of my neck muttering curses to me. I ascended the stairs with her in my arms. As I opened the door I heard her gasp in surprise. I had made a few changes in the room there were two cribs placed at the corner of a room. One for my Princess.
And the other for my champ.
"Nothing for me? " she pouted cutely.
" I am all yours. " I replied winking at her. This was the moment when our siblings entered with my kids. I placed both of them in their respective cribs while Aryan informed that everyone was leaving.
After a full day with my family I received a call from the office regarding an important meeting. I looked at Preet and she nodded. I affirmed my presence and got ready leaving for the meet.
After a long and boring meet, I drove as soon as possible to reach home. What have you done to me Mrs. Preet Malhotra. Running up the stairs I opened the door only to be left devastated. There my wife was trying to smoothen the cries of Araj as tears streamed down her own face, while Abeer seemed to be looking at both of them and suddenly even he started crying. I rushed to Preet back hugging her. Sensing my presence she turned around in my embrace breaking down in sobs.
"What's wrong Shortcake? " I asked her.
" I am such a bad mother. I can't even handle my own kids, both of them are crying from so long. " She cried. I smiled at my precious innocent baby.
I made her sit on the bed and handed over Abeer to Preet, and picked up Araj. " Sing! " I asked her.
She looked up at me confused and I nodded as she started humming a lullaby.
By the end of the lullaby both of them were asleep. Finally she gave me a smile. Placing the kids in their cot she ran towards me. I embraced my world in her form in my arms.
"Am I a bad mother Kabir? I am so incapable."
"Preet, meri jaan, you are the best mother ever. Not only to Araj and Abeer but also to Aryaman, Ayaan and . You have been a mother figure to Kashish and to Arjun. Then why are you doubting yourself now? "
" Both, both the kids were crying and I couldn't do anything, how will I handle them Kabir? "
" Preet, first of all you are not alone, I am here with you and apart from that, You are a mother of two Preet, there's two to wash, there's two to dry, there's two who cry! When they grow up you'll find one in the mud having a ball; the other will be holding a crayon making drawing on the wall. Some days will seem endless, your patience will grow thin, you are the mother of twins, but by the end of the day all your doubts will be answered Preet, As you'll tuck them to bed, you'll have two to kiss, two to hug and to top it all you'll have two to love. " I explained oy to be answered by a soothing silence. She kept on looking at me while her eyes talked depths. There were unshed tears lingering in her eyes. I knelt in front of her kissing her forehead where she closed her eyes a stray tear steered down her cheek. "I love you." she mumbled and if I would not have been paying attention to her I would have missed it. This I love of hers held a lot more than expected. It hid an underlying thank you and a million other emotions. I smiled at her and asked her to freshen up as I got up on my feet but surprisingly he held my wrist standing up herself.
"Have I ever told you how lucky am to have you? " she asked cupping my face. I nodded positively with an enthusiastic smile." Yes, but I won't mind hearing it again. " I replied cheekily. She got on her tipped ties and pecked my nose making me narrow my eyes. "You broke down my walls without me even noticing and then you rebuilt the walls and added windows to them to let the sunshine in. Mujhe toh pata hi nahi tha Kabir, ki pyar kya hota hai? Kisi ke liye important hona kya hota hai and then suddenly aap meri life mai aaye, har waqt, har lamhe mai apne pyaar bhar diya. Itni importance di ki I know I have been spoilt. When you hold me tight in your embrace I feel that no one can even touch me. I feel protected. When you kiss my forehead, it seems like the biggest promise. A Promise Of being there. I feel like a queen when you shower all your love that you had have on me. The relationship you gave me, there is nothing more potent or divine than that. And when you love me back you make me fall head over heels again for you. You make me believe that fairytale do exists. " she completed and I was completely left astonished. Before I could reply she continued.
" Sometimes I wonder how you put up with me. " he said with a mischievous glint in her eyes moving out of my embrace.
"Then I remember oh, I put up with you too. So we're even." she completed taking a head start to run away. As soon I understood her underlying meaning I ran behind her. Running around in the room and the open terrace her giggles and laughter added life to the atmosphere. I stepped closure to her and took her in a back hug swaying her around as she squealed. Even after her long speech about how lucky she was to have me. I wish she knew it was me who was blessed by this sunshine in my dark life. It was my destiny, a destiny where she was
DESTINED TO BE MINE.
