AKSHARA

We entered the hall and there we saw Neil coming towards us with smiling face .

" Welcome Akshara , welcome Mr.Birla thanks for coming " Neil spoke shaking hands with Abhimanyu and side hugging me .

" Thanks , ofcourse we had to " Abhimanyu answered .

" Guys please make yourselves comfortable and specially you Akshara " He spoke .

" Yes sure " Abhimanyu answer while he phone rang .

" Akshara if you feel like resting or using rest room just let me know we have rooms booked here , I know the venue was quite far from your house for specially for you" Neil spoke with smile on his face .

" No it's not that far , it's fine " I answered .

" Yeah but still " He spoke .

" Abhi take the call it must be something important " I spoke as his phone rang for fifth time .

" No it's not that important " He answered me while rejecting the call .

" Abhi .. go take the call and come back quickly " I spoke .

" Yes .. Mr. Birla take the call might be something important" Neil spoke .

" Fine I'll be back in a minute " Abhimanyu spoke, left .

" So .. everything done ? " I asked Neil .

" Yes almost .. " he answered .

" The decor is beautiful " I spoke .

" Thanks .. " He answered .

" So.. how are you & your baby doing ? " He asked .

" Good.. " I answered but was interrupted .

" Neil.. " A lady spoke catching both of our attention .

" Yes ... mom " Neil spoke and turned around , there stood a middle aged women draped in beautiful black saree .

" Oh , Hi beautiful lady , is this Akshara ? " She spoke to and then asked Neil .

" Right ,Mom this is Akshara , Akshara she is my Mom Mrs. Manjiri Kapoor " Neil introduced me to his mom .

" Hi Mam... How are you ? " I spoke greeting her .

" Oh ! Please address me as Mum or Aunty no need to be formal , I am very good and I am so happy for you , you know I have heard a lot about you from Neil and when he met you after so many years, few days back he was so overwhelmed and told me how more prettier you have turned , honestly these boys wouldn't know but this is actually pregnancy glow "she spoke pulling me into a warm hug .

" Thankyou Aunty " I spoke showing a wide grin , I wanted her to address her as mom but my heart didn't allow me to do so.

" You know Akshara ,it's very smart of you choosing to embrace motherhood at such an young age , I know my son pissed you off at this and I am really sorry for that .. but trust me this is a smart decision you made " she spoke in advising tone .

" That's completely fine aunty , you don't need to be sorry for that it's all sorted now " I spoke with a smile on my face .

" That's good ..Umm..Neil.. beta could please go & check for the ring , their families must be arriving " She spoke to Neil with smile on her face .
