Chapter 30 - 30. Prarthana

Start splendour

"I'm so happy for you." Mahi said with a big smile on her face while hugging Karthik.

"Thank you so much. Pray for me that everything go well." Karthik said.

Everyone is very happy that Karthik got his first movie.

Suddenly Mahi's cellphone rang. It's a call from Aarav.

Today's Natasha's delivery. After Aarav know about the things between his mother and wife he started to live separately with Natasha from his parents.

Mahi feel like she is on cloud nine due to happiness.

Mahi and Karthik leave together for Mauve hospital. While their journey Mahi trt to call Divya, but she is unreachable.

Mahi call her husband to share this news when she reach hospital.

Right now, Avatar was signing an agreement with a foreign investor when he receive Mahi's call.

Avatar's face swiftly changed when he heard Mahi's panicked voice saying she's in hospital and before his wife even explained what had happened, Avatar had left his seat and walked hastily out of the building where he just had a meeting.

Avatar's heartbeat quickened when he heard the noise from Mahis' side.

Avatar left without saying anything, leaving Gyan to take care of everything and make excuses for the investors that Avatar had abandoned.

Actually Mahi is not panicking, she's just to excited. Mahi explain this to Avatar to quite his nervous and quicker heartbeat. But he still want to see his wife safe and sound before his eyes.

...

Mauve Hospital

Avatar ran along the hospital corridor and immediately went to the room where Natasha was being treated. Outside the room, Mahi's bodyguard james and jack were on guard. so it was certain that Mahi and Karthik were in the room, accompanying Natasha.

Avatar came to know from bodyguards that Aarav was gone to meet the doctor.

Avatar didn't feel right to go inside as he's not that close with Mahi's friends. so he decided to wait outside.

"How are things now?" Avatar walked to Mahi when she exit from the delivery room and found his wife curled up with knitted brows.

"It's okay," Mahi said, calming herself. "Doctors said Natasha was able to give birth normally, the mother and baby are in good health. We just need to wait until the opening is over."

"Then, why are you frowning?" Avatar ask while soothing her wrinkled brows.

"She is in a lot of pain." Mahi hug Avatar burying her face into his chest. "But everything is worthy for her baby."

...

When she fell in love with Aarav and the man reciprocated the same feelings, Natasha felt like the happiest woman in the world, especially with the way Aarav pampered her and gave all his attention to Natasha.

But, none of that compared to what Natasha was feeling right now, she had never felt this happy when she saw her little daughter for the first time or heard her cry demanding attention.

Their little daughter was born perfectly.

She had very small fists and also a pretty face. Perhaps this was a biased judgment from a mother who would always think her baby was beautiful.

But really, seeing her little daughter, Natasha felt she never saw a baby as cute as her.

The cute baby wriggled and cried on Natasha's chest when she was finished cleaning. Her small mouth opened, her fist gripped Natasha's finger and her crying immediately stopped as soon as she was fed.

Not only Natasha who was fascinated by the little baby, but everyone who was there also looked at the little baby with eyes full of affection.

Their waiting finally paid off, the pain Natasha felt paid off by seeing her little daughter.

"Thank you my wife…" Aarav whispered in Natasha's ear.. Tears ran down her cheeks, seeing their daughter in her father's arms.

"Congratulations." Mahi said while crying, she also don't know why she's crying maybe because she very happy for her friend.

"Congratulations" Avatar could not understand how a woman even managed to stay alive after giving birth. It seemed like an impossible task for him, and it was something that would always amaze him.

Aarav asked, "What should we name her?"

"What do you think?"

"Prarthana. She is my wish. I wish that from this day onwards, neither you nor she will ever come in harm's way."

Natasha smiled and held onto him. "Okay, we'll go with that."

Natasha.needed to rest. She had spent too much energy during delivery.

Finally, everyone else got the chance to held the baby, but to their bad luck. Baby have to stay in incubator for observation.

Mahi got to cuddle the little princess for a short while before she was taken away by the nurse.

Avatar was still standing by the side. After finally he saw the little baby girl, he didn't know what to feel. He have a lot of thoughts to react after the reality hit him.

If someday he and Mahi have a baby...he don't know what was the feeling going to be.

Their baby is going to be a very beautiful. Even if he look like him or Mahi.
