Four months had passed since their baby girl entered their lives, filling their days and nights with a whirlwind of emotions, sleepless nights, and countless cherished moments. Parenthood had been an adventure—one that brought with it both joy and challenges.
Morning: Embracing New Routines
Bella woke up to the soft coos of their daughter, lying beside her in the crib. Her eyes fluttered open, and she turned to see Vidyut already awake, gazing at their little one with a sleepy yet adoring smile.
"Good morning, princess," he murmured, gently stroking the baby's tiny hands before turning his attention to Bella. "And good morning to my queen."
Bella stretched and sighed, rubbing her tired eyes. "Morning," she whispered, feeling the stiffness in her body from sleepless nights and constant nursing. She looked down at herself, her postpartum body still unfamiliar to her, and a flicker of insecurity crossed her face.
Vidyut noticed it instantly. He cupped her face, his thumb tracing soft circles against her cheek. "You're beautiful, Bella," he said, as if reading her mind. "Every curve, every mark... they're reminders of the life you brought into this world."
Bella smiled faintly but didn't reply. Instead, she busied herself with changing their baby’s diaper while Vidyut stood by, watching her with admiration.
"I'll make breakfast," he offered, placing a quick kiss on her forehead before heading to the kitchen.

Noon: The Weight of Insecurities
As Bella folded tiny clothes in the nursery, she glanced at herself in the mirror. She could see the changes in her body—the extra weight, the stretch marks, the tiredness etched into her face. It was hard not to compare herself to the woman she once was.
The sound of the door opening broke her thoughts. Vidyut entered, his eyes softening when he saw the look on her face.
"Hey," he said gently, walking towards her. "What’s wrong?"
Bella swallowed the lump in her throat. "I just... I don’t feel like myself anymore, Vidyut. I feel different. I look different."
Vidyut wrapped his arms around her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. "Bella," he murmured, pressing a kiss to her temple. "You're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, and I mean that. This body carried our daughter, loved her, nurtured her. And it's still breathtaking to me."
Bella turned in his arms, tears brimming in her eyes. "Do you really think so?"
He cupped her waist and leaned down, brushing his lips against hers. "I don’t just think so. I know so," he whispered against her lips. "You're the same woman I fell in love with—no, even better now. Stronger. More beautiful."
Bella sniffled, smiling through her tears. "You always know how to make me feel better."
"It's my superpower," he teased, wiping her tears away.

Afternoon: Finding Themselves Again
Parenting had consumed most of their time, but Vidyut was determined to remind Bella that she was more than just a mother—she was his love, his partner, and his everything.
He surprised her by arranging a small date at home, setting up a cozy spot in the backyard with fairy lights, a picnic blanket, and their baby nestled in a bassinet nearby.
"What's all this?" Bella asked, eyes wide in surprise.
"Just us," Vidyut said with a smile. "No distractions. Just some quiet moments together."
They sat down, enjoying the simplicity of being in each other's company. Vidyut fed her pieces of fruit while their baby gurgled happily beside them. Bella leaned against his shoulder, feeling content.
"Thank you, Vidyut," she whispered.
"For what?"
"For reminding me that I'm still me," she said softly.

Evening: A Father's Love
Back inside, as Bella tried to put their daughter to sleep, Vidyut watched from the doorway, his heart swelling with love. He stepped in, taking the baby in his arms and rocking her gently.
"You need to rest too, Bella," he said softly, seeing the exhaustion in her eyes.
Bella smiled tiredly. "I will."
Watching him with their daughter, Bella realized just how lucky she was. He was more than a husband—he was a doting father, a supportive partner, and her constant pillar of strength.

Midnight: Rekindling Their Love
Later that night, as Bella lay in bed, Vidyut joined her, his hands slowly tracing patterns on her back. He pulled her closer, whispering sweet nothings in her ear.
"I miss you," he said, his voice laced with longing.
Bella turned to face him, her eyes soft. "I'm right here."
"I mean... us," he murmured, pressing a kiss to her neck. "I miss having you all to myself."
Bella blushed, threading her fingers through his hair. "I'm still yours, Vidyut. Always."
As he kissed her deeply, his hands exploring her body with reverence, Bella finally let go of her insecurities, feeling beautiful and loved in his embrace.
With their baby sound asleep in the crib, the night belonged to them—filled with whispered confessions, stolen touches, and the warmth of their undying love.

The soft golden rays of the morning sun streamed through the curtains, casting a warm glow across the room. Vidyut stirred first, his eyes fluttering open to see Bella sleeping peacefully beside him, her face serene, her lips slightly parted. A tender smile formed on his lips as he propped himself up on one elbow, gazing at her with nothing but love.
He leaned in, pressing soft kisses on her forehead, down to her cheeks, and finally to her slightly parted lips. “Good morning, my love,” he whispered, his warm breath tickling her skin.
Bella sighed in contentment, her lips curving into a sleepy smile as she snuggled closer to him, burying her face in the crook of his neck. "Five more minutes," she mumbled, her voice laced with drowsiness.
Vidyut chuckled, pulling her closer, wrapping his strong arms around her. "No rush," he murmured, placing another kiss on her hair. "I just want to hold you like this a little longer."
Bella hummed softly, pressing a feather-light kiss to his chest. "Mmm... I love this," she whispered. "Waking up in your arms, feeling so safe and loved."
Vidyut's hand gently traced soothing patterns along her back. "I'll always be here, Bella. You, me, and our little princess... my entire world."
She smiled, tilting her head up to look at him. "You make it sound like a fairytale," she teased, her fingers lightly caressing his jawline.
"It is," he whispered, his gaze filled with adoration. "And you're my happily ever after."
Bella blushed, hiding her face against his chest, making him chuckle. "You're such a romantic, Vidyut."
"For you? Always," he replied, tightening his embrace.
They lay there in each other's arms, basking in the warmth of their love, their hearts beating in perfect harmony. The soft gurgle of their baby girl stirred them from their cozy cocoon, reminding them of the beautiful life they had created together.
Bella sighed, stretching lazily. "Looks like our princess is awake."
Vidyut kissed her forehead once more. "Then let's start our day, Mrs. Suryavanshi But first..." He leaned in closer, his lips brushing against hers. "...one more kiss."
Bella giggled, kissing him softly before whispering, "I love you."
"And I love you more," Vidyut said, as they finally got up to embrace another beautiful day as a family.

After basking in each other's embrace for a while, Vidyut gently pulled away, pressing a soft kiss to Bella's forehead. “Let’s get our little princess ready for the day,” he murmured, sliding out of bed.
Bella smiled sleepily as she watched him walk over to the crib, where their baby girl, Princess Rose, lay wide-eyed, kicking her tiny feet in excitement upon seeing her father.
“Good morning, my little sunshine,” Vidyut cooed, lifting her carefully into his arms. He pressed a loving kiss to her chubby cheeks, making her giggle. “Ready for your bath?”
Bella sat up with a stretch, watching her husband with adoration. “You’ve got her wrapped around your finger, you know that?”
Vidyut smirked. “Well, she is my little girl. Right, princess?” he asked, tickling her belly softly. The baby squealed in response.
Carrying their daughter to the bathroom, Vidyut carefully placed her in the warm water, supporting her tiny body with his strong hands. Bella stood beside him, watching as he bathed their daughter with utmost care, his fingers gentle, his voice soft as he spoke to the baby, telling her stories only she could understand.
“You’re so good with her,” Bella said softly, handing him the baby wash.
Vidyut looked up, smiling warmly. “She’s the best thing that’s ever happened to us.” He poured water gently over their daughter's soft curls, making sure she stayed comfortable. "And you, my love," he added, looking at Bella, "you made all of this possible."
Once the bath was done, Vidyut wrapped the baby in a fluffy towel and passed her to Bella. “Your turn,” he grinned. “Make our little princess even more adorable.”
Bella dried their daughter with motherly care and dressed her in a soft pink frock with tiny bows, gently kissing her forehead before cradling her in her arms. “All set, my little rose.”

A Warm Morning Shower
As Bella placed their baby in her crib with a gentle lullaby, Vidyut approached her with a mischievous smirk. “Now, it’s our turn,” he said, pulling her towards the bathroom.
Bella’s cheeks flushed. “Vidyut...” she protested weakly.
He silenced her with a kiss, leading her inside. The warm water cascaded down as he undressed her slowly, his hands moving with both tenderness and hunger. He worshiped every inch of her, his touch lingering on the curves that had blossomed with motherhood.
“You’re breathtaking,” he whispered against her skin, trailing soft kisses down her shoulders.
Bella sighed, her body melting under his touch. “You make me feel beautiful, Vidyut.”
He turned her to face him, pressing his forehead against hers. “Because you are. Always.” His hands traced down to her waist, pulling her closer under the spray of water.
Their lips met in a passionate kiss, one that spoke of love, longing, and gratitude. Vidyut's hands roamed to her swollen breasts, his touch reverent yet possessive, making her moan softly against him. “Vidyut...”
“I love every part of you,” he murmured, his fingers teasing her, eliciting shivers down her spine. The water wrapped them in warmth as they explored each other with a newfound intimacy, cherishing every touch, every whispered confession.
When they finally stepped out, Bella leaned against him, her body sated and her heart full. He wrapped a towel around her, drying her with the same gentle devotion. “Let’s start our day, Mrs. Suryavanshi,” he whispered, pressing a kiss to her damp hair.

A Day Full of Love
With their daughter nestled in her crib, Bella and Vidyut sat down for breakfast. The house bustled with warmth and laughter as Vidyut’s mother joined them, showering Bella with affectionate reminders to eat properly.
“You’re glowing, dear,” she said, serving Bella an extra helping of fruit. “Motherhood suits you.”
Bella smiled, glancing at Vidyut, who winked at her. “It’s because of all the love I’m surrounded by,” she said, holding Vidyut’s hand under the table.
Throughout the day, Vidyut ensured Bella was comfortable, helping her with little things—massaging her feet when they swelled, feeding her favorite snacks, and stealing kisses whenever he could.
By afternoon, Bella sat in their living room, watching Vidyut play with their baby girl, lifting her in the air and spinning her gently while she giggled joyfully. Bella’s heart swelled with emotion.
“I love you,” she whispered softly.
Vidyut turned, his eyes shining with adoration. “And I love you more.”
As the evening settled in, Bella lay in Vidyut’s arms with their daughter resting peacefully between them. “I never thought life could be this perfect,” she whispered, tracing patterns on his chest.
“It’s just the beginning, love,” Vidyut whispered, placing a tender kiss on her forehead.
With their daughter fast asleep and the night embracing them, Bella closed her eyes, feeling safe and cherished in the arms of the man she loved.
