BELA

Today we were on the way to our so called 'home',Mahira was sleeping in my arm's and I caressed her hair.

"Bela..Mahira slept?"dad asked.

"Yes dad,she fell asleep immediately",I said looking at her.

Her hair's,her eye's,her pouty lips,she inherited everything from her father.I beared her in my womb for nine months for her only to come out as her dadda.

My Mahir's Mahira!

I smiled and kissed her pout.She will be very happy for going back to her dadda today.Since three months,she must be thinking that Mahir went for a business trip,she don't know what happened in between her parents.

"Bela..we reached..come on",dad said and I looked around.

We were in our parking lot,I slowly got down helding Mahira in my arms.Mom and dad were taking out our luggage,mostly Mahira's stuff was there.

Sumi maa and papa's car was also seen here,even they are present,
"Bela..come",my mom said and I nodded.

We got into the elevator and reached our floor,it's like I'm having a deja vu,the first time Mahir showed our condo.

"Mhmmhh...",Mahira groaned.

"I'm here baby..I'm here,sleep..",I patted her back and she snuggled into me.

She feels her dad's presence very well than me!

Dad rang the door bell and I looked at the name plate,
'Bela&Mahir Sehgal'.

I looked away and tried to blink back my tears,the door opened and Sumi maa was standing in front of me,
"Bela beta...Mahira",she smiled looking at us.

I smiled back and she took Mahira from me,
"Aww..my Mahira..",she hugged her and Mahira groaned in her sleep.

Everyone laughed looking at them and I stepped inside.This house is looking dead!

"She slept so soon..?"Sumi maa asked kissing her head.

"Yeah..the car sickness,it's getting better now",I said and she smiled kissing her.

Mahira is really lucky to have grandparents who loves her,but her dadda?

I turned around and looked at Mahir,he gulped looking at me,tear's brimming in his eye's.

"Bela beta..come",papa said and I walked towards the couch.

"Bela..I will make Mahira sleep in her crib and come",maa said.

"But maa it's not...",Mahir cut me off.

"I cleaned her crib...I cleaned our room",Mahir said and I looked at him.

Maa went and made Mahira sleep in our room.I was sitting in between my parents and Mahir was sitting in between his parents,opposite to us.

"Bela..Mahir..whatever has happened..it's already done,we can't change that.But now..you both have to change you're future together,for Mahira",papa said.

"Just not for Mahira,but even for you both.We know how much you both love each other,don't try to spoil it with small small mistakes and misunderstandings Bela",my mom said.

I looked at Mahir and he was already looking at me.

"And about Mahir's work..that was the main problem and now he will be taking some break from it.He will spend time with you both",maa said.

"I applied for my job and I got it.Work from home",I said and they all looked shocked.

I am a housewife.Not anyone's pressure,it was my choice!
