Today Roohi is the happiest and luckiest woman on this Universe. Rahil is sleeping quietly on Akhil’s big and warm chest. Roohi herself had felt that warmth many times when she rested on Akhil’s chest while feeling his heartbeat. The time his heart was running faster than Usain Bolt on hearing the news of Roohi’s pregnancy, the time whenever she needed him during those nine months and the time when the doctor told him that there are some complications in the delivery, Roohi felt that heartbeat and warmth every time.
Roohi was looking at both her favourite boys, sleeping so peacefully. She smiled at her fortune. Akhil woke up and smiled at Roohi, kissed her picture on his bedside table and said in his heart, “I miss you Roohi.”

A hauntingly sad story that left me wondering why life should be so unfair to the boys! Wish Roohi didn’t have to leave them behind. Lovely take on the prompt, Nidhi.
Sorry for the sad story. This time felt like writing some sad ones… Thanks for liking it dear
Touching.. To be frank this kind of story scares me. I guess, the lady lost her life while giving birth.
Now a days I come to read many news about about death during child birth. I am yet to have a baby and this scares me to the core.
Sorry Maya… But plz do not get scared… Firstly she did not died in childbirth. I did not mention how she died. Trust me you will have a beautiful baby and healthy delivery
☺️ ❤️
Btw… This is my first sad story… I am sure you will like others which are happier than this one.
Ha ha. I will explore your blog for all other contents. Nice to know you.
Btw I will be up with my story for the prompt super soon. 😀
Waiting Maya
Another bitter sweet tale. This left me with a touch of sadness.
I am sorry for a sad tale dear… Next one is happy
Ohh,,,death of a loved one can be devastating but how we handle it,that is important. How Akhil has handled it is just wonderful

This is heartbreaking. But I am glad the child is in good hands and she’s at peace but I feel sad for him though. Beautifully penned.
Thank you so much Sheethal
It started on such a sweet note that I had a smile on my face. I am sad it had to end this way. But nonetheless, it is beautifully told!
I know dear… I myself did not think it to b end like this…
This is so sad..today lot of bloggers wrote on single dads..that made me misty eyes because I was raised by one.
I am so sorry Balaka… I am feeling same since I lost my mother 8 months back
Life can be unfair.. well written Nidhi
Thanks so much Akshata

Thank you so much for your lovely words. Hope you will like more stories on this blog.
So if Roohi died who is the baby that is in the picture? If that is baby Rahil then is Roohi a ghost?
That baby is Rahil and roohi is looking them in her spirit form
Gosh got goosebumps reading this !
Thanks dear
I didn’t see that ending coming. Bittersweet!
I agree my dear
