Khwaish Part 17

( credit goes to deepali for making it for khwaish :D )

Khwaish’s fever came down slowly by the evening and she was again back to her chirpy self gradually , though not as she always does but enough to make her parents  calm and not to be worried for her .

Khanak and shaan looked after her whole night , though she was fine and didn’t have fever but still they were worried for her , so they thought to look after her whole night . Khanak asked him to sleep and she will take care of her as he had to go office in the morning , shaan insist her to sleep as she already had a tired day due to  khwaish’s illness and said that  he will look after khwaish and will do some project work in his lappy but she was more stubborn then him  , he then had to agreed  but  asked her to wake him up if she needs anything  or if khwaish  wakes up or troubles her . she agreed and he  sets the alarm in his Iphone .

It was  around 5 :00 clock in the morning , when shaan  woke up  and turned to look khwaish and khanak , khanak  had slept too but her hands was  around khwaish , he smiled seeing her  posture  , shaan placed his hand on khwaish’s forehed to see if there is any fever , but she didn’t have any fever. Shaan bend down to kiss her forehead, taking care that she didn’t woke up and then he stepped down from bed and moved towards washroom.

He came back from washroom and saw khwaish sitting on the bed rubbing her eyes innocently, shaan smiled  seeing her but at the same time was worried that now khanak will woke up too hearing their  voice, he moved towards khwaish when he saw khwaish stressing her little hands towards him as if asking him to hold her .

He  came back and  sat beside her , hold her and embraced her  lovingly in his embrace  , bend down to kiss her hairs , khwaish squeezed her eyes , yawned and sat leaning on shaan’s  chest .

Shaan : sweetie  why did you woke up so early , hmmm ?

Khwaish just rubbed her face moving it here and there from  his vest  and  again sat leaning over him, shaan smiled seeing her this cute act and thought that khanak is so right whenever she accused him  for  not letting khwaish sleep and touching or kissing her or caressing her in her sleep as she woke up whenever she feels his touch over her. He sighed and bend down to see her , whether she is awake or slept , as  he bend down to see her face , she looked up at the same time, shaan smiled and hugged her tightly .

He take her out of  the room , so that khanak didn’t get disturbed by them, without creating any noice and  took his iphone along with him so that if it rings she didn’t get disturbed . He moved towards washroom of guest room , for freshening  up his little sweetheart . He let her stand above sink holding her safely  so that she didn’t get slipped from there, and  wiped her face with cold water , she giggled cutely as he opened the tab and placed his hand under it to take water for wiping her face , shaan smiled too  and wiped her face with cold water

Shaan : Badmaash , itna mazza aa raha hai na subah subah pani ka khel kar rahe hai papa toh ?

Khwaish just looked at him still smiling and then leaned over him again and started  rubbing  her face with his T-shirt ,

shaan : mumma ne yeh towel rakha hai na washroom mein , papa ki  shirt se thodi pochte hai , cutie pie :*

After that both father and daughter moved towards kitchen , holding khwaish in his arms , he  puts pan over gas to make coffee for him , and take out biscuit in a plate for khwaish . He simmered the  knob  of gas to let the milk boiled and came out of kitchen moved towards the Dining hall ,  switched on  LCD  and  started surfing the channels but stopped at news channel . He bend down and put khwaish over the mat laid above the floor, with her toys already scattered over it . she moved towards her toys and take her favorite doll  from it, she  started licking and playing with it lovingly and giggling at time. Shaan smiled seeing her , still wondering that how the little kids understands and can differentiate as to which are their favorite things .

Shaan : sweetie , sit here , I m coming back

Khwaish was too busy in playing with her doll, that she didn’t looked up at him , he moved towards the kitchen  to take his coffee . Came back taking coffee and biscuit in a tray and sat infront of her . he dragged her towards him holding her little toes .

Shaan : chalo papa ke saath buiscuit khayegi na khwaish ?

Khwaish looked at him with a sweet smile, turned herself to face him and then hugged him lovingly . she ate biscuit dipped in coffee with him, basically their  daily routine little game of around half an hour and then both were busy in playing  catch catch. Two hours passed  like that, after that she started whining  and chanting “mumma”

Shaan tried hard to console her, take her out towards the balcony to show her birds and animals , she kept quiet for a while but then again she lost interest in everything around her and whined  for her ‘mumma’  again .

Shaan gave up and take her inside their bedroom and kept her on bed , she immediately moved towards khanak , who was still sleeping deeply , khwaish sat beside her and placed her hand above khanak’s cheeks  and then leaned over her face , khanak moved slightly , opened her eyes slowly and found her daughter ‘s face above her, she smiled and put her hands over khwaish , dragged her above her to let her sleep by patting her head . Within few minutes khwaish  slept  peacefully  near her mother.

Shaan brought tea and coffee for them by that time and placed it on centre table and sat on the couch reading newspaper . Khanak  got up from the bed, moved towards the washroom and then came back to sit beside him.

Khank : whats the time ?

Shaan : its 8 :00 clock

Khanak : when did she woke up ?

Shaan : at 5 : 00

Khanak : you must have touched her ?

Shaan : I was checking her temperature

He justified himself and also prepared himself to get nice scolding from her .

Khanak : ya, don’t try to justify yourself , I know you , you just  can’t let her sleep , when you know that she wakes up by your touch , still you do that , you just don’t let her sleep peacefully.

Shaan  : ho gaya ?

Khanak : Kya ho gaya ?  I was not narrating a story of a movie or novel .

Shaan Laughed loudly at her reply , and dragged her towards him and squeezed her sideward.

Shaan : you look more adorable than  khwaish  when you  argue or fights with me

Khanak smiled and moved more closer towards him,hugged him tightly and kept sitting leaning over him , placing her head  above his chest . “ Really ??”

Shaan : no, I was trying to stop you from  speaking more

Khanak whacked him on his shoulder “Jerk”

Shaan laughed again and she kept staring him and  his laughter , she raised her chin upwards and placed her palm on his cheek and then both the lips sought each other finding solace in each other , and the feeling of eternity in each other’s arm, made the kiss more passionate . After few minutes his phone rings, it was from office , he moved to take the call and she moved towards kitchen for making breakfast for him.

They moved to their daily routine life after spending some beautiful moments together with morning tea and coffee

It was evening 4:00 clock …………..

 khanak came to kitchen for making tea for herself and milk for khwaish . she kept her at floor , nd moved towards the slab . Khwaish saw the basket containing potatoes and onion at one side of the kitchen , she immediately moved towards it and started scattering them  one by one from basket to the floor. Khanak looked back to see what she is doing and smiled seeing her act , but didn’t stopped  her and let her do . she was back to adding milk in her tea and filling the mug with milk , when her phone started ringing , she looked the screen it was from ma , she add milk into her tea and simmered the knob to let it boil and take her call.

Khanak was busy in talking to her ma , telling her all the little incidents happened with her in a day . It was her daily routine to talk to savita and madhavi  and tell them  about what all she did ,  how was her day and how much naughty khwaish became with each passing days and some of her naughty acts which makes them laugh. She was still telling her ma that how Jai had taught her playing with water and to splash it from bucket  or tub,  when  Suddenly she heard the noises around , she looked back and found that  khwaish was standing  holding the bucket and  is splashing water from that bucket  chanting “ chap ……chap ……..ahh…..hahah “ . She was giggling and laughing like she achieved greatest thing on earth. Khanak immediately moved towards her screaming “ Khwaishhhhhhhhh………….kya kar rahi hai ? “.  She asked ma to call later as her naughty daughter is trying to show the live demo of her act which she is narrating in her words to ma. She kept the phone down , switched off the knob of gas and moved towards khwaish.

Khwaish looked at her and then again started splashing the water from bucket  “ chap …..chap …..“

Khanak : badmaash ….. pitti khani hai ab aapko , hai na ?

Khwaish looked towards her with blank expression and stared her for few seconds and then screamed loudly towards khanak “ aaahhhhhhh ……”

Khanak was shocked for a while and then laughed inwardly but kept the stern expression over her face to not motivate her acts further

Khanak : Mumma ko daant rahe ho aap ? Kal aapko kitna  fever tha , aur abhi aap phirse kheloge     mum-mum se toh phir se fever ho jayega na ?

Khwaish  just kept looking innocently at her as if trying to understand her  mother’s words , then she leaned towards khanak and hugged her

Khanak smiled  and hugged her back  “ haan mumma ko chup karne ka  acha tarika sikha diya na papa ne aapko bhi ? …… bas pyari kar do , pata hai mumma apne aap shaant ho jayegi , hai na ?“

Khwaish  stood their hugging her , placing her head in her shoulders , khanak took her in her arms and moved towards their room for changing her clothes. She  undressed her , wiped her body with towel and applied powder over her , and then dressed her  with white cotton knee length  frock with frill at the end  , she looked angelic in that frock , khanak  kissed her cheeks and then  came back to the kitchen  holding her in her arms, khwaish looked towards the scattered water and potatoes and onions on the floor , pats khanak’s  shoulder 

Khanak looked back towards her and raised her eyes as if asking “what ? “

Khwaish showed her the messing floor , pointing her fingers towards the water and potatoes in  the floor .

Khanak : haan, pata hai , sab bikhra diya meri choti si gudiya ne , mumma sab sametegi , but before that we will have our tea , hai na ?

Khwaish smiled widely and leaned towards her placing her head in her shoulders.

Khanak squeezed her tightly “ my cutie pie…….I love you so much , muahh “
