Chapter 6

*Sudhir Pov* 

“I am going to die just because of you Sudhir.” Indu said with so much anger. 

“Don’t stress yourself Indu! You need to be calm.” I slowly said and her anger just rose. 

“No! I never wanted to die at this age.” She said suddenly with tears. 

“You are not going to. Just take a rest.” I calmly said. 

“So Mr.Sudhir Arora knows how to lie then.” She said, shaking her head and hissed in pain. 

“Don’t move your head like that.” I said stopping her. 

“Ayesha is here to see you. She has been crying for a few days.” I added, remembering my daughter’s cries. 

“No! I don’t have the patience to console her now.” She said closing her eyes. 

“I will come later.” I said, sighing and was about to get up when she stopped me holding my hand. 

“Promise me something.” She said, and I looked at her frowning. 

“Promise on Ayesha that you will fulfill it. Then I will meet her.” She added and I reluctantly nodded. 

“I want you to...”She started saying. 

I came out of my thoughts when I felt someone standing right behind me. I turned to look at Nisha looking at me fidgeting her hands. 

“I got a room prepared for you, and you can rest there.” I calmly said. 

“What?” She asked me completely shocked. 

“It is on the other side of Ayesha’s. It is also furnished.” I replied, walking inside the room. 

“But I thought… I mean I already placed all my clothes here.” She mumbled, and I turned to see that she has her eyes close. 

“You can carry them to your room tomorrow. I need to sleep.” I said and walked to my bed. 

When I lay down, she slowly nodded and walked outside taking some dress from the cupboard. 

After she left I switched off the lights and drifted off into sleep… 

*Nisha Pov* 

I sighed, getting up not at all satisfied with the sleep I got. I just tossed around completely maybe because this is a new place. 

After freshening up, I walked outside the room and walked inside Ayesha’s to see she is getting ready with the help of Sudhir. 

“I am sorry! I didn’t wake up early. I just got sleep very…” I started saying, but he cut me off nodded. 

“You do not have to give me any explanation. Breakfast must be ready.” He said walking out holding Ayesha passing me without a glance. 

Damn! I just need to wake up early from tomorrow onwards. I thought sighing. I so do not like it, but I need to. 

When I went near the dining table, I saw that he was feeding Ayesha by hand, then why did she want to eat with a spoon yesterday. 

“I will feed her. You can have yours.” I said, standing beside him. 

“It’s ok! She doesn’t like with a spoon in the morning.” He said brushing me off. 

I didn’t say anything and just sat beside them looking at them. He is such a loving father! I thought and remember about my Dad. 

I wish he didn’t leave the world when I was a kid. I looked up thinking maybe he is looking down at me at present. 

“Eat!” I heard a small voice and turned to see Ayesha looking at me finishing her food while Sudhir continued to have his. 

“Good morning!” I said kissing on her forehead. 

“Good morning!” She said smiling a little. 

I started having my breakfast and finished it soon than Sudhir. Then taking three of our plates, I walked inside after he finished ignoring his words. 

“You need not to do anything. I can do it for myself.” He said walking inside. 

“I am just here right! I can do it too.” I said, turning towards him. 

He nodded and walked outside. After washing the dishes, I heard him saying, “I want a responsible nanny.” 

He doesn’t wish me to stay in his room, and I was ok because I can understand his need of space. But nanny, I will not allow him. 

“I can take care of her.” I said standing near him. 

“I don’t trust someone easily.” He said hanging up. 

“But you can trust an outsider.” I pointed out. 

“I pay for her and if she makes any mistake, then I can complain about her to the agency.” He said, and I stepped back hearing those words. 

This is not the way I thought would happen, but well life really gives you the unexpected. 

“If I make any mistake, then you can appoint any number of nannies." I said after a few minutes thinking about it. 

“I don’t want to take chances.” He said in blank tone. 

“Do you want me or a nanny?” I asked walking towards Ayesha. 

She frowned and asked, “Do you know Tom and Jerry?" 

“I know!” I replied, suddenly smiling at her question even though I was feeling a bit of hurt hearing him. 

“Do you like them?” She asked still frowning. 

“Of course! Who doesn’t like them?” I asked her shocked. Hell, I love them! 

“Big people!” She replied, smiling a little. 

“Then big people don’t have brains, but I do have one.” I said, and she smiled more. 

“I don’t want the nanny.” She said looking at him. 

“Ayesha!” he said, shaking his head. 

“Please!” She pleaded with him so cute that I feared if I will ever be able to say no to her when she does the same to me. 

“Ok! Just one mistake and there will be a nanny.” He said looking at me, and I nodded. 

When he left I turned towards her and hugged her tightly smiling…
