"SITAAAAAAAA" Anvi shrieked with excitement. Anvi and Sita were out shopping. Anvi's baby shower was due in two days. They were out shopping for Anvi. But they ended up in the infant wear section and now Anvi was out of Sita's control. 

"Anvi...you just gave me a heart attack. Don't shriek like that." Sita said, panting. Her hand was over her chest, trying to calm down.

"I am so sorry Situuuuu, but look at this...." Anvi said while waving a baby pink bloomer in front of Sita's face. ".....it is so cute ... .I will die of this cuteness." She was really going out of control. 

"Anvi..what if it is a boy? Will you make him wear pink bloomers with hello kitty printed all over?" Sita deadpanned. Anvi's bright smile faulted at the mention of a "boy". She just flickered the bloomer in her shopping basket.

"She is a girl" Anvi murmured while caressing her 7 months pregnant baby bump. 

"Did Bhai.....?" Sita asked Anvi, narrowing her eyes at Anvi.

"Nope he did not tell me anything, but I have my ways you see" Anvi smirked while wiggling her eyebrows.

"Really? Are you sure it is a girl?" Sita's face lit up.

"Yup." Anvi replied with a proud tone.

"But how? Tell me" Sita demanded.

"Nope," Anvi said. She added a couple of more cute bloomers in her shopping baskets.

"Pleassssssseeeee, Anviiiiiii...." Sita whined. Anvi was enjoying this very much. 

"OK...I kind of dropped hints all week long that I will be shopping for girl outfits and Rudraji kept smiling at me." Anvi said while checking a very cute frock.

"And?......" asked a very confused Sita.

" I told him it was going to be on his credit card. If the baby is not a girl he would have stopped me" Anvi said in a matter of fact way.

"And it proves nothing Anvi....." Sita said checking the same frock. "......Bhai is ready to go bankrupt for you at the drop of a hat."

"No, she is a girl." Anvi grumps.


A small hand shook Anvi's knees lightly in an attempt to wake her up. She groaned in her sleep and pushed the little hand.

"Bua please wake up" a sweet little voice urged her. Little Gola climbed the couch on which Anvi was perching. This time he shook Anvi's shoulder a little bit more vigorously. "Bua...the baby will be uncomfortable. Please wake up." He urged again. Anvi, against her dearest will, opened her eyes. She took a moment to adjust to the light. As soon as she opened her eyes, Gola climbed down the couch and picked up a glass full of water from the coffee table. Gripping the glass with both his hands he, very carefully and slowly, walked towards Anvi.

"Bui ... .drink this. You should drink water after waking up from sleep" He said while he placed the glass of water in her hands.

"Gola...it is 1 at night. Why are you awake?" A shocked expression crossed Anvi's face. Nevertheless she drank the water Gola offered. 

"Papa promised he would call today, but he did not yet." Gola lowered his gaze to his fidgeting fingers. "I am waiting for his call."

"Golu...." Anvi sighed. But she forced a smile on her face. "What about we wait together. I am also waiting for Mamu. So why don't we go to bed together. I will wake you up when your Papa calls, hmm?" She said while extending her hands to Gola. Both of them headed towards Anvi's room hand in hand. As Anvi settled on her side of the bed, she saw little Gola place a water bottle on her nightstand. He must have learned it from Rudra.
