The Only String Attached

"Dadda see..kuku is eating",Mahira said giggling.

"You rock baby",I shouted giving her a flying kiss.

"We just need to distract her from asking about Bela,we will call her once she reaches",I said.

"Yeah..we have to",Yuvi said while making a video of Mahira.

Mahira was so happy enjoying with my dad.I wish even my mom could enjoy with Mahira.

We took her to park after sometime and her happiness had no bounds today.

It was Mahira's day out with us.She is eating properly and was enjoying to the fullest.

She asked for Bela again but we distracted her somehow.I laid her on my chest,she was sleeping peacefully.She is so tired today.She used to take at least three naps daily,but she slept only once today.

I was feeling so empty without Bela.We distracted Mahira a lot from asking about Bela.I guess she will reach by early morning.

I laid Mahira beside me and slept feeling tired.

BELA

Finally I reached London.I checked my mobile and saw messages from Mahir and Yuvi.

They were videos of Mahira playing with them.Andy uncle was feeding Mahira and she was eating like a good girl.

She was feeding the birds sitting on Andy uncle's hip,eating ice cream,dancing.

She is doing good without me I guess.I just hope she doesn't cry.

I texted Mahir that I reached London,he must be sleeping now as it is early morning over there.

I went and met Suhani.It's been a year now.I immediately rushed to my office to complete my work.

"Bela mam...I guess once you have to check these building layout's",Anna my secratery said.

"Yeah sure",I said and checked everything.

"It's perfectly fine.Arrange the meeting in ten minutes.We will make the deal official",I said and sat on my chair.

I got a text from Mahir.I opened it and saw a video of all the three men playing in the pool along with Mahira.

Mahira was sitting on Mahir's shoulders and was enjoying in the pool.She wore a small tank and short.She was looking so cute.

My eyes welled up looking at her.It's been a day since I spoke to her.I texted Mahir to give me a video call.I can't stay without talking to her.

I completed my meeting by evening and was waiting for Mahir's call.I was getting a call from him and it dint take a second for me to pick up.

"Hey..",Mahir said smiling.

It's been a day since I heard his voice.

"Hey..hi",I said blushing.

"How are you...is the work done?"he asked.

"Ya I'm fine and the work is done",I said.

"Hmm good..wait I will call Mahira,Mahira...",he called her.

"Where is she?"I asked.

"She is upstairs,playing with Yuvi at the terrace",he replied looking at me deeply.

"Ohh...she is eating properly right?"I asked.

"Ya she is...mumma...",Mahira came running towards the phone I guess.

I guess the phone's fallen down due to her force.

"Mahira?"I called her.

Mahir kept the phone properly and Mahira was sitting on his lap now.
