Sivaangi was having her morning practice session and as she was trying to hold up after the practice, she felt an unknown dizziness. She tried to squeeze her eyes to get a clear vision but everything went blur and she could see everything dark as she collapsed on the floor.

She tried opening her eyes slightly to find herself on the bed and devi maa was sitting near the bed "amma"

"Eppadi irukku da?" devi maa asked her with concern.

("How are you feeling?")

"Thala suthuthu maa etho mathiri irukku"

(Not feeling good due to the dizziness)

Devi maa smiled at her and caressed her face "Onnum illa da 1 month ah continuous recording poyittirukka la athunale than"

(You must be tired because of the continuous shoots and recordings)

Devi maa could easily connect the dots as she was already worried of sivaangi being fatigue and tired these days, but she wanted sivaangi to connect the symptoms and find out it all by herself.

Sivaangi recollected how her past week advanced. She was missing ashwin who was away for shooting and was binge eating her favourite blueberry yogurt and chocolates. She felt stressed and fatigued most of the time during her recordings and shoots.

"Oru vela irukkumo?" she mumbled herself with a slight blush. She felt jittery thinking about it.

As she took the tester and waited for the results, she felt like she was waiting for her life's toughest exam result and finally after 5 minutes two red lines appeared. Happy tears flowed through her cheeks as she carefully placed the tester in a box carefully and decided to consult a doctor for the final confirmation.

Sivaangi drove to the hospital after taking an appointment with the gynecologist. She wanted to reach the hospital as early as possible and confirm it to surprise ashwin who was coming back home the next day.

Sivaangi to be frank was scared to be alone. She was fidgeting her thumb and other fingers to control her anxiety as the doctor applied the gel on her abdomen.

"Relax sivaangi..." the voice of the doctor was giving a sort of comfort to her

The doctor asked her to look at the screen and she could see their three weeks old symbol of love carefully placed on her amniotic sac. A tear rolled down her cheeks as she felt a life inside her.

The doctor advised her to take healthy food and prescribed few vitamin tablets for her. Sivaangi went back home with a wide smile.

Devi maa saw the glow on her face and confirmed her instincts when sivaangi entered the kitchen peeking on to have something. Devi maa gave her a bowl of curd rice and a glass of milk. Sivaangi blinked in confusion when devi maa gave her milk because she usually skip milk at night.

"Oru pinch of manjal pottrukken. This is good for your tiredness" devi maa instructed her.

(I have add a pinch of turmeric in the milk)

"Appadiya seri maa"

(Is that so?)

(Ok)

Devi maa took her drishti and tied a red thread on her wrist "Kadavule en kozhayanthaye nalla paathukkonga"

(Protect my child)

When devi maa saw sivaangi placing a hand on her abdomen as she took each step upstairs her eyes brimmed with tears.

"Papa naan pesrathu kekkutha?" sivaangi settled on the bed placing a hand on her tummy.

(Can you hear me baby?)

"Naalekku appa varumbothu namma sernthu surprise pannalam okay?"

(Let's surprise your father tomorrow okay?)

When ashwin was back after two weeks of shoot he saw his wife sleeping on her left with her hand carefully placed on her tummy. He felt an unknown happiness as he smiled at the scene. He placed a long kiss on her forehead and went to get freshen up.

When ashwin was back he couldn't see his wife. He panicked and turned to see a balloon hanging with a note. He took the note and it read "Hi ashwiney can't wait to see you"

He scratched his eyebrow quizzically and turned the note to see a baby pink and blue heart with a question mark. He heard her giggles from the balcony so he moved towards to find sivaangi with a red rose and a cute little box. She gave the rose and he pecked her cheeks. She then gestured him to open the box. Ashwin opened the box and looked at her with wide eyes. He looked at her once again for the final confirmation and she nodded her head positively.

Ashwin scooped her into his embrace "Are we expecting? Sivaangi nee amma...naan appa...namma kutti papa" ashwin was chanting endless thanks in between. He couldn't control his happiness as tears welled up his eyes.

As they parted the hug, he pecked her lips and caressed her tummy "I love you sivaangi ma"

"I love you too ashwineyy" she said as she pecked his lips.

When they announced their pregnancy to ashwin's and sivaangi's family, their home was in a celebration mood for the arrival of a kutti ashwin or sivaangi in few months.

Sivaangi went near devi maa and hugged her tight "Love you maa"

"Love you too thangam"

Sivaangi's eyes filled with emotion "Enakku theriyum ungalkku munnadiye ithe pathi theriyum nu"

(I know that you already knew it)

Devi maa smiled and placed a long kiss on her forehead "Naan un amma da enakku theriyame eppadi? Naan sonna antha thrill irukathu la athunala neeye kandu pidicha nallarkum nu thonichu"

Sivaangi chuckled with happy tears as she felt blessed to have two caring and loving mothers in her life.

"En ponnu eppothum happy ah iruntha pothum enakku"

(I want my daughter to be always happy)

She giggled and discussed how tensed she felt when she had to consult the doctor all alone to keep up the surprise. Devi maa patted her head lovingly and shared how she revealed her pregnancy to ashwin's father.

Ashwin saw all this with content as he felt lucky to have been blessed with two miracles in his life. One miracle gave him life. The second miracle became his second mother who is preparing herself to gift him with another miracle soon.

Hows it?
