"let's keep the baby" I said to Manik as we were both sitting on the floor staring into nothingness.

Letting out my anger for almost 4-5 didn't help,
Nothing helped.

"We can't Nandini" He said holding my hands.

"Please,just let's keep the baby and if complications increase, you'll keep the baby" I said and he immediately looked at me with anger.

"Are you mad Nandini" He said going away from me.

"Manik" I cried.

"I know you imagined our baby in your arms,I know you felt them in your hands already and now I don't wa--"

"Of all the things my hands have held Nandini, the by far best has been you"He said holding me yet again.

I cried more.
It's hard losing a baby.
I had almost imagined how it was going to be, going to feel to be a mom.

Like every girl I had imagined where I'm going to put my kid for schooling,
I had made a list of 100s of names for baby boy or girl,
The clothes I'll bring for them,
Everything.

And suddenly it's all over.
I knew Manik was going through the same.

"Is there nothing we can do about this,
We'll have to lose the baby?!" I asked Manik.

He took a deep breath and sighed.

"We'll go to the doctor tomorrow and ask if there's anything we can do about this" He said.

"What if it's either me or baby at the end" I asked standing up and going to the balcony.

"Then I'll choose you,
You'll choose yourself,
And the baby would also want to choose the mumma" Manik said standing beside me.

"Once you're fit and fine,
We'll try again,
This isn't the last time right,
We'll try and try and try and one day you'll be the best most beautiful mumma" He said taking me in a hug kissing the top of my head.

"You'll be an okay dad too" I said and I could hear him laugh.

I looked at him laughing looking up in the sky.

He was going to be the best dad ever and I knew that.
And all that mattered to him was my happiness.

"When I read the reports I thought everything would be changed" I said.

"Nothing will change,
Even after all this time
You are still you, I'm still me and we're still us,
Forever and ever in love" He said kissing my forehead once again.

I had managed to calm her down to an extent.
I knew she was not going to be normal any sooner which is justified.

I saw her standing in the balcony alone.
And I let her be.

"Why me" She said turning around towards me,crying.

"Nan--" I tried to speak.

"Why" She shouted at the top of her voice throwing a flower vase away which could have hurted her.

"Nandini" I shouted back, angrily.

"Why,why,why" She said everytime and threw things here and there.

Pillows,vases,glasses,water bottles.

She threw everything that came to her hand crying to no extend.

This was needed for her.

"Nandini, listen" I said going near her while she took some steps back.
