5-year-old Ranveer

3-month-old Shagun

Ranveer slowly comes closer to her by taking small steps toward her. She is lying in her baby cradle, gazing out from the crib through the middle gap in the design, and her small eyes are fixed on Ranveer. He stands close to her cradle, holding it tightly with his small hands. He glances at the door, then pivots back towards her, perching on his toes to ensure a clear view of her before he smiles and speaks to her.

"Do you know how much I miss you?" Do you even miss me? Stupid girl. As a wife, you should always be with me. Don't you understand? Simple thing. Listen to me properly. You have to always be like other wives. Get it."

She is looking at him with sleepy eyes. Her tiny, glittering eyes fix themselves on Ranveer, who, despite his current upset, is thrilled to see her. Ranveer angrily complains to her that Shagun, the baby, has just arrived from her grandmother's place and is lying in her cradle, alone in the room, because her mother is busy somewhere else. She constantly fixes her twinkling small eyes on Ranveer. She has been there (grandmother's place) since her birth. Her grandmother brought both mother and daughter to her place for the necessary post-delivery care.

"Promise me that you will never leave me now... You will live with me forever."

He holds her hands to promise, and as the baby is very sleepy, she tightens her small fingers around his two little fingers, which give him eternal pleasure in this world. Ranveer smiles widely and gives a peck on her rosy, soft, cotton cheek.

3 months ago (past)

(On the day of Shagun's birth)

Little Ranveer is sitting with his mother, Nandini, on the chair outside the operating theater. His father, Pratap Singh Ranawat, and his beloved uncle, Shubham Rathore, are pacing back and forth in the corridor. He is not well aware of the situation. All he knows is that his sweet aunt, whom he loves dearly, had very severe pain in her huge belly. Suddenly all the people got very upset due to her pain. His small, naive mind doesn't know that his aunt is pregnant, and it's time for her delivery. (think like a 5-year-old kid). He looks around with a pout on his lips. He tugs at her mother's saree, gazes at her with glossy eyes, and speaks to her.

'Mom, why is Roshini aunty in the hospital? She is crying because of the pain. Didn't the doctor cure her big tummy's pain?"

Little Ranveer questioned his mom in his baby voice as his favorite aunt was admitted to the hospital because of her huge belly pain, which was happening beyond her tolerance, and she was tormented very much by that pain.

''Bachche, she is alright; don't worry about her." His mother tries to comfort him.

"But she is crying because of the pain."

Nandani ruffles his soft, silky hair with love and smiles at his innocence, then explains.

"Yes...She is in pain, but she is thrilled today. You know she is here for her surprise gift, as we got ours, Advay and Advik, two years ago. Understand beta."

Ranveer gets a little angry after hearing the name of both his twin brothers from his mother; he shouts at his mother angrily.

"I don't want any more surprise gifts... I don't like it."

Before Nandini says something to convince him, the sound of Roshini crying loudly comes from inside the operating theater. This situation further exacerbates her anxiety. She immediately looks at Ranveer, filled with frustration, and scolds him.

"Now please keep quiet, Ranveer, and don't talk too much... I don't want any rubbish now … put a finger on your lips and just keep quiet and sit properly."

Nandani is very upset as her best friend is currently in pain. Nobody can understand her mood right now because she's happy and worried about her friend. Somehow she wants to be very happy, as Roshini is about to become a mother after a long wait of seven years. She is pleased but worried about her friend going through a lot of pain at this time. She is pacing in the corridor back and forth at a high speed while interlocking her fingers together to pray for the safety of her friend and baby.

Pratap looks at her and comes close to her, placing his hand on her shoulder because he knows she is very upset. Nandini hugs him as she is really anxious for her friend, but suddenly a sweet, melodious voice comes from the operating theater, echoing all around. With wide smiles on their faces, they both sprint towards the operating theater door, where a tall figure leans in, eager to open it and embrace his beloved wife and the new baby. He is in joyful tears. Pratap hugged him from behind. He was very happy for his friend. He hugged him tightly. Shubham's back is shaking because he is crying silently. Shubham turned around, hugged his friend, and spoke, his words stuttering with happiness.

"Finally, finally I... I... I have become a father."

Pratap held him from his shoulder and pressed them lightly and said with happiness.

"Yes, Shubhu (Shubham) finally god listens to us.".

Finally, the door of the operating theater opens, and the nurse comes with a baby wrapped in a pink towel. Shubham just put both hands on his mouth to stop his crying voice as he didn't want to bother his angel, but he failed badly. Tears are continuously flowing from his eyes, and they make his vision blurry.

Shubham wants to take that child in his arms and kiss her lovingly, but he cannot understand how he got that little fairy safely into his arms. Pratap and Nandini quickly come forward and teach Shubham how to take the child in his arms protectively. Everyone's attention has shifted from Ranveer to that little doll, seeing which Ranveer is getting very angry now.

Little Ranveer is upset with everyone as they are ignoring him. He is unable to see the face of that little towel puppet, but he is very angry with him/her. (as he doesn't know the gender) he murmurs angrily.

"There are two devils already at home to take all the attention of Mumma; now, God, you send this one also.... I am sad..."

He gives a glance to three joyful figures who are busy with that wrapped small mummy-type doll and starts moving to the main gate to come out of there. He is sitting silently on a bench in the garden of the hospital. Suddenly someone's feet stop coming in front of him. He looks upward, his father panting heavily, and he knows that his father is angry at him right now because he left without telling anyone.

"What is this, Ranveer? How did you come out like this? You know how panicked we all were... We are worried about you; do you care a little bit..."

Ranveer, who was innocently listening to his father's scolding for so long silently, looks at his father in anger and shouts at him in his baby voice.

"No, you are not; you don't care about me. You were all very happy to see that new baby... You only love new babies… You do not care about me, just like you were absolutely happy as if you were happy that day when we came to pick them both (his twin brothers) from this hospital. You all don't want me... I also don't want you."

After shouting, he starts crying badly. Pratap looks at him and understands his insecurity, and he feels ignored as his wife is too busy with twins, as they both are tiny and need their mother. And because of being twins, when Nandini keeps on handling them all day, in the end, she could not pay attention to Ranveer because she is too exhausted, due to which he is feeling ignored by her. Pratap sits close to him and makes him sit on his lap and lovingly caresses his soft hair and tells him.

"Hey, buddy, what are you saying? Shhh, quiet. Why are you saying this? Shut up and don't say it at all. He hugs him, patting his back with a soft hand, and slowly starts caressing him. Do you know what? How lucky you are that God himself has chosen you!"

He starts looking at him with his small eyes and blinking his eyes many times, as he doesn't know what his father wants to say. Pratap repeats his words in a convincing manner.

"She is small, very small, so we all have to take care of her..."

Ranveer wipes his tears with the back of his small hands and speaks.

"Why should I care for her? She will do it herself."

Pratap smiles at his innocence and speaks very lovingly.

"No beta, she is a very small nah buddy... and most importantly we have to care for our loved one... And she is a very important part of our family... from now on she is your best friend... don't you care for your best friend..."

Ranveer looks at his father innocently, but in a few seconds, his eyes shine with happiness, and he speaks.

"Just like you care for Mumma and bade papa to badi Mumma."

He interrupted his father in the middle and spoke curiously. Pratap smiled softly and nodded his head in approval.

"Ok... she is my best friend, like Mumma and badi Mumma are your and bade Papa's best friends... you mean to say that girl is my wife.".

Pratap's smile vanishes in the air as his little boy understands everything wrong because he always says in front of him that their wives are the best friends of their lives, and Pratap immediately wants to explain everything to him in a proper way, but a voice from behind interrupts him.

"Yes, she is… If you want, she will be your wife one day…."

Pratap gets up from his seat with Ranveer in his arms and turns towards the voice; frustrated, he says to that person,.

"Dad... Don't play with his innocent mind."

Pratap whispered to his father, but Raghuveer intervened by showing his palm to stop him. He immediately took Ranveer in his arms and spoke to him lovingly.

"Do you want to meet her?"

Ranveer nods his little head with a huge smile on his face.

"Ok, let's get inside and meet her. If you like her so much, then in the future she will be your wife."

Ranveer didn't articulate his words clearly; he spoke quickly.

"But you said she is my wife."

Pratap is annoyed and wants to cut the conversation, but the next sentence of his father leaves him in shock.

"Ok, my little prince, as you wish for my highness… She is all yours... and she will always be yours."

Ranveer jumps on the floor from his arms and starts jumping in joy, Pratap staring at his father, but he is busy enjoying his grandson's happiness. They all come to the room where mother and daughter are resting after their crying session. One is crying in pain and happiness for her little life, and another one is crying because of coming into a new world.

Ranveer's eyes are just and only looking at the cradle where the doll is sleeping. As he approaches the cradle and sees the sleeping doll inside, a beautiful smile lights up his face.

She is sleeping, but Ranveer is extremely happy to see her. He bends over her and whispers in her ear.

"I like you... and from now on you are only my best friend and wife... I promise you I don't like anyone... no one ever… Okay, sure promise…… I am all yours, and I always like you. Only you."

He placed a kiss on her forehead. She smiled in her sleep, but it was a moment of immense happiness for him.

"Only you."

She smiled again. Now Ranveer smiled widely.
