Sun rays peep inside the room in between the curtains, Riddhima sleep got disturb with the sun rays touching her face... Riddhima turn in her sleep but not feeling Armaan by her side, she slowly open her eyes trying to adjust her vision to the light... Riddhima eyes were still filled with sleep as if she get to sleep peacefully after months... Remember the previous night incident, Riddhima rubbed her eyes as she look around to see where Armaan has gone...

Seeing the sight in front of her as she turn to the right side, smile form in her lips as she admire the beautiful sight which she had always want to see after she got married to Armaan... Resting her head back, Riddhima keep watching Armaan who was sleeping in sitting position as he securely hold their newborn baby in his arms... Riddhima never knew when the baby has wake up as after restless nights, after delivering the baby in midnight she never realized how she fall in deep slumber that her sleep didn't get disturb by the baby...

Riddhima didn't know how long she kept watching them but baby move in sleep making Armaaan sleep disturb and with startled he open his eyes as he look at the baby making sure the baby was safe... Riddhima saw how Armaan hold got tight as if he might let the baby fall, she know how much Armaan loves his baby that he can never thought to harm them but he don't trust himself when it comes to his children...

While Riddhima was lost in them, Armaan saw Riddhima was awake and he slowly move towards her with the baby... Even the baby has woke up so Riddhima check the time and she saw it was early morning... She had been sleeping for 5 hours without feeding the baby, so she try to sit but Armaan stop her...
'Leit ke feed karo baby koh...' Armaan said...
'Nehi Armaan, main tik hoon...' Riddhima said again trying to sit...

Armaan help her to sit comforterbly with pillow on her back, Riddhima smile with his care and Armaan gave the baby to her carefully as Riddhima hold the baby looking the small one laying inside the pluffy white blanket cover its small body... Riddhima care the baby cheek, trying to believe it was true that she was holding their baby finally after 9 months... This was the one who she had been feeling inside her womb from 5 months before she got to hold in her arms...

Armaan who was sitting next to Riddhima, look at her expression feel bless to see his wife looking fresh and calm as from last few months she had been very restless due to the pregnancy... Armaan loves to pamper and shower love on her but it was very hard for him to see his love so restless every night as the days got close them to welcome their second baby as they believe Aana is their first baby...

When the baby started to suck taking the feed, Riddhima close her eyes as she relax... Armaan put his arm around her shoulder making Riddhima head rest on his shoulder as he softly care Riddhima arms... Feeling Armaan soft care, Riddhima after sometimes open her eyes and gave her beautiful smile which Armaan returns...
'Bi koh call karke dekho, Aana uti ya nehi...' Riddhima asked as Aana was a early riser now...

However sometimes they let her stay till 10 pm at Saturday nights but its a must to her to be on bed by 8 pm in school days... As today was a week day, they knows she would wake on her usual time and not seeing either of them she would give a hard time to Bi...
