Valentines Day ❤️

It was 7’o clock on a Sunday night, in chilling winters of 1987, Mahesh, who was eagerly waiting outside the Intensive Care Unit of RH hospitals, all of a sudden heard loud cry of a baby from inside. He could not wait a single second to see his baby and kiss his dear wife out of extreme Joy. He rushed towards the door, No sooner did he try to push open the door, A nurse who was smiling with glee came out to tell Mahesh that his wife has given birth to a baby girl. Unlike a typical parent of that era who sobs on listening “you have given birth to a baby girl” news, Mahesh was extremely happy, Not wasting a second, his teary eyes turned around in search of his beloved wife who was resting on bed with her eyes closed in relief, and his footsteps took him towards the most awaited baby girl who was lying just beside her mother. The moment he saw her, he couldn’t help but finally shed those tears which were on the verge.  He slowly bent to take the baby into his arms, smiling.  he was alarmed by her beauty, her perfect beautiful brown eyes, which stared at him with enormous focus, reminded him of the days he spent imagining how his baby would look like. It took him back to that day when his wife, Teju asked him

“Tell me whose eyes would look beautiful? Mine or the baby’s?”

For which Mahesh took her close in his arms,  caressed her hair and looked into her beautiful eyes, kissed them, and told  “Of course my baby’s”, came his reply smiling with a wink, for both of them knew how much Mahesh loved Teju’s eyes..

then came Tiny nose, cute pink lips, the baby looked just like Teju. As beautiful and adorable as her. firm but smooth tender fists, miniature nails, he just couldn’t take his eyes off her. While Mahesh was so indulged in baby blues, He looked at Teju. That very moment, Both of them became his Valentines for a lifetime.
