Yuvi’s PoV:
Suhani was screaming with all her energy. We were in labour room and our child was giving her the very tough time and I can’t see hr like that. If I say that her pain is unbearable, it would be lie, because the pain was not just unbearable, it was killing her. I held her hand with mine, and with the other I caressed her hair. She continued to scream, and she was becoming very tired, her physical strain was way too much. I understood the pain a woman has to go through while delivery, but here, in our case, the pain is balanced. Because the pain which is torturing her physically is torturing me mentally, she was struggling, with all her energy she was trying to make our child come out, and it was taking away my life. I even blamed our child, for it was because of her, she had t go through all these, in a way, I was angry with my unseen baby!
And, then, she stopped screaming, our child came out, I didn’t even look at it, I was much worried for Suhani.
Me: Suhani,
She looked at me, she was very tired, but there was satisfaction on her face, and seeing my worried face, she smiled. I too tried to smile.
Suh: It is alright, I am fine.
I nodded, and the nurse came with our child after bathing it.
Nur: It is a girl.
We squeezed each other’s hand out of happiness, and looked at each other.
I couldn’t believe it, I am a father, FATHER, father of a girl child, I felt like jumping up and down, it was really a different and amazing feeling, I can’t explain.
Nurse handed the baby to Suhani, and she took her. Suhani smiled a 1 lakh voltage smile. Seeing her, on one would say that she was screaming in pain a while ago, she looked like she was never and would be ever sad, I, with all mind wanted that. I watched them, my wife and my daughter; it was much more than a treat to watch them. Then Suhani handed the baby to me.
The second I took her in my hand, I understood I was wrong, for I was sure that I won’t able to love anyone to the extend I love Suhani, but no, I love our little angel to the same extent, she is ours’, and is everything for us. She would be named Yuvani, it was decided earlier.
The feeling of having MY daughter in my hands she beyond words can explain, I simply held her, I never wanted to leave her, I wanted her to be with me, always. Suhani smiles at us, I too smiled.
Doctor advised Suhani to rest, she very much needed it and I came out with Yuvani.
End of PoV.
