When Akshay left, Dipesh got a call from Dipika.
"Hello Dippi, what is our baby saying?"
"Baby is missing you and expressing displeasure by kicking inside my stomach!"
"Tell the baby that Papa is so eager to meet that he is asking its Mumma to swallow him so that the father son duo can meet inside his current solitary residence!"
"Shut up. Don't talk nonsense!", she said lovingly.
"I am missing those hugs and kisses, cuddles, and love talks!"
"I am too! Dear, one thing to tell you. Recently I started liking sweet tomato curry. So, that means the baby likes it hence I am now. Like father, like our baby!"
"Wav, I’m glad to hear that. Hey, one thing! I have selected a few boys' and girls' names from the internet”.
"Send me on WhatsApp. Then we can finalize a few names!"
"Done. Love you. Take care of your health. Have proper food!"
After their conversation, Dipika's mother talked to Dipesh and inquired him earnestly about his food and overall well-being. Later Dipesh told Dipika in short about Akshay's visit.
After the call, Dipesh recalled the days when he had visited the hospital many times with Dipika and her mother, during pregnancy days, and had seen the baby image on the screen of the sonography machine.
Both were very excited to have their baby.
Many days later:
Dipesh got a call that Dipika was taken to hospital, and very soon their baby was likely to enter the world.
And finally, the hospital heard the cries of the baby. It was a baby girl.
Both families were happy. Sweets were distributed. Akshay went to Jejuri the next day to meet a new member of his family.
When the baby was 5 months old, Dipika shifted back to Pune. For a few days, family members from both sides kept coming to visit their place.
Their happiness knew no bounds.
