Sunlight peeped through our window & fell on my face. Now a days when I finally fall asleep I sleep like a dead. I mean if anyone will cut my leg while I am asleep I won't even know about it... Cos I am too tired to feel any kind of pain. Cos someone is making me too tired by their non stop attention seeking activity.

I didn't open my eyes but stretched my left hand to touch someone. But then I found that place empty & my heart stopped beating for a moment. I immediately woke up & looked at my side but then suddenly something clicked to my mind & I immediately relaxed. I checked the time & it was 8:45 a.m.

I went to freshen up instantly cos I knew if I miss this chance then it will be too difficult for me to do it later.

After some 45 minutes I finally went to our living room & saw two humans are soundly sleeping on our living room bed. One of them was just one month & three days old though.

The scene infront of me literally filled my heart with warmth. The little figure had snuggled cosily within the arms of the much larger & broad figure.

I smiled and went near them. I caressed the stubbly cheek of the larger figure.. God I can never get enough of this man.

Then I looked at the tiny figure. I laughed seeing her tiny little mouth which was drooling. Hmm she got this habit from me.

I slowly shook my dear dear husband not wanting to disturb our infant daughter's sleep.

Randhir sir.. I whispered...

He wasn't in deep sleep. So he immediately opened his eyes & looked at me.

Why are you sleeping here??

Randhir sir - ohh you woke up.. what's the time?

Me - 9.40 a.m

Randhir sir - ohh... She woke up around 7 a.m & started crying. I didn't want your sleep to get disturbed. So I brought her here.

Me - hmm... Why was she crying?

Randhir sir - her diaper was full & she was hungry. I changed her & then fed her a bottle. She slept & I also slept.

He said & kissed our daughter's head.

Me - hmm...  Wake up now. Get freshen up. I will make our breakfast. Then you need to go to the market. Today is Sunday & I want to eat chicken.

Randhir sir - yeah... Just a minute please... He said & again closed his eyes while pulling our baby more into him...

Me - no get up now... Or else you will fall asleep again. I shook him again.

Randhir sir - okay okay...

He finally went to washroom & I made a pillow wall around our daughter & went to kitchen.

Sometimes I feel like my current life is nothing but a dream. It's not reality but a beautiful dream that my heart & soul are making me live it only in my conscience.

Everytime when I fall asleep a sudden fear captures my heart that what if I will wake up in my hostel room instead of our bedroom. What if the honey coated voice of my daughter is nothing but an illusion.
