Enjoy the new chapter lovelies..
Happy reading...
______________
"Kangaroo??" Dhruv was confused by the choice of her word..
But he remained quiet and followed the little one's lead..
As they reached the couch he noticed that the couch was a little bit high for her..
She jumped once but didn't get successful in climbing on it..
She jumped again.. And again the same thing happened..
Dhruv shook his head and thought to help her..
"Do you need any help??" he asked with a smile..
She looked at him and said "No.. I did this before also.. I can do it.."
And after another few rounds of jumping she finally climbed on the couch..
The whole time Dhruv was just looking at her..
He didn't understand what was so fascinating seeing a baby.. umm.. well a stubborn baby climbing on the couch on her own..
But surprisingly his eyes never left her sight..
He sighed and took seat beside her..
Dhruv noticed she was resting her back on the back rest of the couch and her legs were lying flat on the sitting part of it..
"Wow..!! Her legs are so tiny.." he was amused seeing that...
They were sitting in silence..
She was looking here and there in the lobby and he was looking at her..
Every time he was seeing her, he was wondering that how come she was so tiny..
Dhruv had zero experience of babies... He was so naive in this field that he didn't even have any idea that her physique is perfect according to her age..
.
.
.
After complete silence of good ten minutes he remembered about the 'Kangaroo' thing and thought of asking her about it..
"Baby, why did you say you are not kangaroo??
I didn't get it.." he ask softly..
"Offo..!! You don't know anything..
Kangaroo always carries their babies..
I said I'm not kangaroo cause I don't need anyone to carry me..
Now understand.." she explained everything in her baby voice..
"Hmm.. Intelligent..!!" Dhruv remarked in mind..
"OK.. Now I understand.." he nodded his head..
"By the way, baby.. What's your name??" he asked..
"D.." she chipped absentmindedly playing the the sleeve of her own coat..
"And 'D' for??" he upped his one eyebrow..
"And.. 'D' for Devil..
Boohh..!!" she muttered and suddenly looked at him with her hands in the air to scare him..
Dhruv jumping slightly on his place by her sudden action..
A the little devil giggled heartily seeing his reaction..
A huge genuine smile broke on his lips after five long years because of this cuteness..
How Dhruv wanted to clasp her in his arms, pull her chubby cheeks and say to her that she wasn't a devil, she was a cute tiny fairy, like Tinkerbell..
But he kept his hands with him only owing her softness..
He was scared thinking that he might hurt her..
"That can't be true.. Your name can't be devil.." frowned..
"But here I'm known as Devil.. Everyone calls me Devil here.. It's my office pet name.." she smirked..
Dhruv's jaw dropped seeing an infant smirking at him and that too exactly the way he smirk..
He took a few seconds to come out of the shock and then nudged her again with a question..
"Why they call you Devil..?? Don't you feel bad..??"
"I just hate those bunch of idiots who call her Devil..
I mean like seriously?? How on earth one can address her as Devil..??" he said in mind..
"No..!!
They call me Devil cause they are scared of me.." again she started playing with her sleeve..
She was hiding her hand completely inside the sleeve and then pushing it out with a jolt..
And there Dhruv was just admiring her without blinking..
.
.
.
"Wait.. I'm coming.." suddenly she chipped and climbed down from the couch when she got bored playing with her sleeve..
"Hey wait..!! Where are you going??" Dhruv asked before she could go anywhere..
"Don't worry.. I'm not breaking my promise.." she grinned and ran away the very moment..
"God..!! She can give a tough competition to bullet train.." he mumbles seeing her speed..
He looked around and found the lobby is deserted..
He was the only soul sitting in the waiting area of the huge white lobby..
He looked at Carla.. She seemed pretty engrossed in the computer..
Still he thought to ask her again about the meeting..
He was about to get up from the couch when he noticed something near the entrance by the corner of his eyes..
He shifted his gaze to the entrance and frowned see his Tinkerbell coming rather sneaking inside tiptoeing and looking everywhere..
Within a couple of seconds she was standing in front of him hiding something inside her coat..
"Help.." she chipped cutely..
"You need help?? But as far as I can remember you can climb on the couch without anyone's help, right??.." Dhruv played..
"I can.. But I can't use my hands now..
Please.." she pouted slightly..
And it was more then enough to melt him..
He hold her lightly and made her on the couch like before..
She immediately kicked her shoes off and sat cross legged facing Dhruv..
Then she removed a ball like furry object and placed it between her and Dhruv..
Dhruv also turned and faced her seeing that mysterious thing..
"What's this??" he asked her pointing at the fur ball..
"Shh..!! Speak slowly.." she whispered pressing her forefinger on her tiny pink lips..
"OK sorry..!! But what's this??" Dhruv too whispered..
She gestured him to come near her by her hand and he bended down to her level..
She grabbed the fur ball and held it closed to his face..
"Ahhh...!!" a second later Dhruv flinched back with pooped out eyes..
"Ssshhhhh..!! Don't make noise..
They'll throw Zeppelin out.. He is not allowed here.." she chipped annoyingly and looked at Carla who was busy in a call..
"I'm so sorry, baby.. But why do you bring this dog here..??" Dhruv gulped and made some distance from a small pup..

She slapped her tiny forehead and mouthed.. "It's not a dog.. It's a baby.."
"But still why is it here??" Dhruv was getting uncomfortable seeing Zeppelin looking at him with his button like bright black eyes..
"It's he.. Not it, understand??
He's my baby.. Zeppelin.." she said caressing his head..
"Actually he doesn't like Nancy, neither Nancy likes him.. So I brought him with me..
He was outside with Ben till now.. But as mommy is taking time, I thought to bring him inside so that we three can play.." she gave him a toothy grin..
"Wait.. Hold on.. Who is Ben and who is Nancy??" Dhruv didn't get a single thing she told him just then..
"Oppz..!! Sorry I forgot that you don't know them..
Wait I'll tell you.. Ben is our driver..
He takes me to school and then takes me home when mommy gets super busy..
And he always takes me here..
He's good old man..
But Nancy is very evil.. She's my babysitter..
But I don't like her at all..
She's a pain in the ass.." she chipped shaking her head..
And on the other side Dhruv got shocked hearing her words..
"Baby.. From where you learn this pain in the ass??" he asked at little bit strictly..
"Vruz says this all the time.. I learned from her.." she muttered making a super innocent face..
"Now who is this Vruz??" Dhruv asked annoyingly..
"She's in my partner in crime.." her eyes twinkled on the mention of her crime partner..
"Baby.. Listen.. You shouldn't say like this..
It's not good..
Good girls never says anything like pain in the ass and all..
And you are mommy's good girl, right??
So you won't say anything like that from now on.. OK??" Dhruv tried to make her understand softly..
She kept looking at him and batted like a doll..
"You know mommy and you say the same thing.." she spoke with I amusement..
"Really?? Then why didn't you obey her words.. It's a bad manner.." he touched her tiny head lightly..
"Sorry.. I won't say it again.." she shook her head..
"Promise..??" Dhruv held his palm in front of her..
"Umm.. OK.. I'll promise but first you befriend with Zeppelin.." she chipped...
She held Zeppelin in her hand and gestured Dhruv to take him..
And Dhruv's eyes widened in horror.. He was sweating in the AC..
"No.. I won't do any such thing..
He'll bite me.. No.. Keep it away from me.." Dhruv was visibly scared..
"Haww..!! You are afraid of him..
He's a baby.. See.. He's so tiny and soft..
And you are a big person.. Still you are scared of it.." and she started laughing..
He too smiled seeing her laughing wholeheartedly..
"Trust me.. He won't do anything.. Please befriend with him.. He'll feel good..
He's so small.. He can only lick.. He won't bite you..
He doesn't have many friends..
Only me, mommy, Vruz, Sam and Ben are his friends..
Please befriend with my baby..
Please.." she showed him her puppy eyes with a pout..
Dhruv hadn't a heart to turn her down..
So he decided to befriend with him..
"OK.." he chipped and her eyes twinkled..
Don't know why but his heart got filled with satisfaction seeing her happy..
He tentatively extended his hands to hold him chanting prayers in mind..
Closing his eyes he just picked him at once..
He was expecting a painful bite from him but it never came..
All he could feel was his soft fur..
He opened his eyes slowly and found him smiling at him wiggling his tail..
Dhruv relaxed..
"Hey.. Zeppelin..!!
I'm Dhruv.. Your new friend.." he said with a smile..
And Zeppelin showed his tongue..
"He likes you and he's happy getting a new friend..
He always show his tongue to express his happiness.." she informed..
"He's cute.. And doesn't even bite me.." Dhruv grinned only to get a I_told_you_before look from her..
.
.
.
In no time Dhruv got comfortable with Zeppelin and trio started playing without making much noise..
But after sometime their fun session came to a abrupt halt as a female voice reached their eardrums..
"Dhruvika..."
