Daniel: papa what happened , papa wake up,please.

Nova seeing his son tries to calm his uneven breath, takes his son onto his lap and pats his head assuring him that everything is ok.

Nova: I am alright, it was just a bad dream, it's alright don't worry.

and pecks his forehead.

u go and sleep ,I am alright. u have school tomorrow it's ur first day along with ur sister.i am sorry I couldn't keep my promise that ur mother and I together send you to school.

Daniel: it's okay papa I understand u search for mother until then I will take care of Ana.

Nova: good boy ,go and sleep well it's late.

he watches until Daniel was out of his sight and sighs.he takes his whiskey bottle goes towards the balcony and settles himself on the couch where the couple used to get cosy.

he remembers their moments where she daily used to write diary sitting on the couch watching the night sky full of stars.

FLASHBACK ______

The sky was fully covered with stars ,they were sparkling like diamonds in the black night sky,it was truly enchanting.

there she was immersed in her diary writing something.

I tried to sneak in but she was way more smart and closed the diary with a 'THUD'

AVA : I know you are here come to the front, I can sense ur presence .

Nova : uuuhhh.. how do you always know that it's me .I always try to see what you are writing but Everytime u block.this is not fair.

Ava : I can Sense ur presence because I love you so please no more excuses.

Nova : I know,I know, I surrender and also ahh.. he suddenly turns serious

she starts getting anxious when suddenly he turns serious

Nova : I too love you ,but more than u sweet heart

he replies with a smirk on his face.

I go sit beside her taking her in a side hug she snuggles more in to me.

Nova: umm... can I ask you a question,

Ava : u don't need permission to ask Nova , just ask away.

Nova: ummm... augh...it's about ur diary why won't u let me see it, I know privacy is important but I am dying to know what is that ummm.. u are writing. please once can I see it .if it's not okay with you then it's fine .u don't have to force ur self.

I said that all in one breadth.and look at her to find her laughing while holding her stomach.

Nova: u are laughing at my expense , uh I will teach a lesson just wait. I started tickling her but softly ensuring that she is comfortable.

Ava: nooonoo.. I a..m not laughinnnnng it'ssss just....u were so cuuuuuteeee w...he..n u were blabbering earlier so I coul..couldn't stop lauuuughiiiing.shoooolllly...

I melted at the sight of her cute pout , she holding her ears and saying sorry while laughing, I couldn't resist and pecked her one the pout.

Later I carefully helped her into the room as she was 3 and pregnant.I being an over protective husband and would be father do not let her even step out of the bed when I am not around.

Ava being Ava never listens to me and top of that pregnancy harmones.

I always wanted her to be healthy but due to pregnancy she has morning sickness 😷 which makes her retch her guts out ,she becames a plain as white sheet after vomiting. I feel like taking her pain away but I am unable to do so.

Ava : can I ask u something, ummm I mean I want a promise. pls

Nova: u don't need to ask just order love I will full fill it ,if it's in my hands.ok

he tells her while making her comfy on the bed and I sleep close to her

she snuggles close to me and said

Ava: please promise me

Nova: ok baba promise now tell me

he said taking her more closer to him.

Ava:I want you to take care of our children in the future even if I am not around they should never miss me .I know I will not go anywhere but just promise me.pls

Nova:I promise you baby I will never let them feel ur absence but u r not going anywhere while I am around no one I mean no one can separate us .and promise me stay with me till eternity.

Ava:I am not going anywhere and I promise we will stay together forever .
