Samuel woke up early in the morning and went see his daughter. But the room to James room was locked from inside so he came to kitchen and thought of preparing breakfast for the family. Then he went to the main hall and started pacing around. As it was Sunday everyone were sleeping lazily.
Jasmine was the first to come out. When she saw her husband pacing around in the main hall she just laughed at him and went to have her morning coffee. She just patted on his back and said "good luck with your daughter". Samuel pulled her towards the dining area and sat on the chair and sat her on his lap. He was very anxious for his daughter but he has missed his wife so much, they have very little time for each other. So he just hugged her and sat there .
James and Nancy came afterwards. Watching the love birds early in the morning Nancy was somewhat relieved. "See them, they already have three kids but still romancing. You country man, how many days since it has been you have ever had a sweet time with me" Nancy complaint playfully at James. "Haa I too missed my wife, what can I do? my son kidnapped you and came here. Leave him at their care and come with me to the village this time" James was not a sweet talker but he is too straight forward.
" Yes sister, have some good time alone you two. We can take of our son in law. As Vivi is here he doesn't need anyone else" Samuel replied.
"Where are the kids?" Jasmine was looking for her daughter and stood up from Samuel's lap.
" They are still sleeping" James answered her.
They were chatting for sometime, then David and Inir came out first with some toys in their hands.
"Where is Vivi Inir?" Samuel asked him.
"She still sleeping. hmph" Inir just answered him and left that place with a angry face. Samuel just smiled at him not knowing what to say.
"She will not be angry on you don't worry" Jasmine replied him with a small smile. Everyone knows he is Vivi's favorite.
After some time Vivi also came out, she was half asleep, she came straight to the hall and looked at every one as if they were aliens. Then she went straight to the hall and plopped on the sofa. The adults started laughing at her antics. It seems she is still sleepy.
To tell the truth, When Vivi woke up, she looked around and saw no one was there so she came out and saw that everyone was sitting there, she was a little afraid of being left alone so she started searching for someone. So as she was still sleepy she just went to sleep again.
Inir and David were playing with some car toys. Nina's sound came from the room so Jasmine went to look for her. But Vivi also immediately woke up and ran inside the room as if she was being chased.
Samuel again become sad. After some time Jasmine brought Nina out and put her on the playing mat. She saw that Vivi is missing and looked at the others. When she saw Samuel with gloomy face, she understood something might have happened. She went to look for Vivi. Then she found her inside Inir's room. She took her into the bathroom to get her ready.
Both mother and daughter came out looking refreshed and smiling. All went and sat for breakfast. The boys also joined them. Samuel brought some milk for Vivi and put it near her plate. She was sitting on the high rise chair, recently she has started eating by herself but she cant drink her milk without anyone's help. Samuel sat down next her and asked" Vivi baby, do you want to drink milk?" she just nodded her head. "Here, pappa will give you, drink" but she just stared at him and smiled. Samuel was relaxed to see her smiling.
But she didn't drink the milk, so he left the sipper cup there, and started eating his food. After some time Vivi tried to drink her milk but she can't hold the cup. Samuel helped her but when he held the cup she stopped drinking and just smiled at him and started eating again. The same repeated twice again. Now Samuel started to feel something odd. She didn't try to talk to him or interact with him but smiled at his every time he approached her. As if she was doing it on a automatic mode she was just replying with a smile. After she finished her breakfast, she tried to get down from the chair, again Samuel helped her, after getting down, again she smiled at him and went to play. Others also watched this and felt odd.
For the whole day, she was giving the same smile to everyone and running away. But whenever Nina starts to cry for anything she will just run away from that place and far away from Nina and go inside Inir's room.
Samuel was really frustrated, why can't she just accept her sister. Why is so difficult at very young age. What really happened to her. Why can't she be like other kids. What will happen when she grow up.
James who was watching as a third person, suggested "Why don't we keep Vivi away from Nina for some time. When she feel comfortable around others we can let them meet"
"Okay then, I will take Vivi and shift to a new place for few days" Samuel replied readily.
" No you are not the one. I think she will feel better if you both can leave her some time. She might start missing her parents and she can come back to both of you. What do you say?" James was still suggesting.
"But where will you send a small baby without her parents? Who will take care of her?" Samuel was not ready to part from his daughter.
"I will take her to the Village. Nancy and I will take care of her. We are not strangers to her. If you don't have trust on us then no issues" James replied curtly.
" It's not about trust. If we don't trust you then whom should we trust? But is it okay for a baby to stay away from her parents?" Samuel asked.
"It's not like you will not visit her. If she goes to my home, you might even shift your job back to our village. I know about you. So just leave her in our care for some days" James replied.
"Okay we will see" Samuel and Jasmine accepted his suggestion.
The next day after sending the boys to the school James and Nancy got ready to go to the Village. Vivi saw that they were packing, and sat on the bed watching how Nancy was packing even her dresses. Nancy slowly went to her and tried to talk to her.
"Vivi baby, do you want to come to aunt's house? You can play, eat and go visit lots of places. There are cows, goats and chickens. Do you want to come with aunty?" Nancy tried to woo her.
Vivi didn't think much, after hearing cows, goats and chickens she was ready to go so she nodded her head happily.
"Okay. Then aunty will go and pack some dresses for you" then Nancy left the room.
Vivi went to her mother happily and smiled at her as usual. Jasmine knew already that Nancy has talked to Vivi. But she was sad knowing that her baby daughter was leaving her and going to some other house. But it is for her own good. So she prepared her for traveling and brought her out. Samuel also already left for the office, he didn't want to watch his daughter leaving the house, so he asked them leave when he is in the office.
The couple left for the Village with baby Vivi. She also left with eagerly to visit the animals.
