It was the time of evening, the birds were hovering in the sky. Avni and Shweta were standing in the room and Neil heard them. 
Neil was shocked. The shopping bags fell from his hands. Avni and Neela maa turned their faces and were shocked to see Neil. Avni saw the bags on the floor then she looked at Neil who was panting and his eyes were tears. Neil came to them while looking at them and especially Avni. Avni was looking at him. Avni and Shweta looked at each other then they looked at Neil.
Neil: what is Mom saying? 
Avni touched Neil's arm: Neil. 
Neil jerks his arm. Avni was shocked. Neil gulped and he squeezed his nose. Neil was angry. 
Neil: what is Mom saying? 
Avni looked down. Neil got angry and he held Avni's shoulders who flinched. 
Neil: How can you do this? 
Avni was looking at him. 
Shweta: Neil, relax, she is pregnant. 
Neil was fuming and Avni was sadly looking at him. Neil left Avni and he gulped then he looked at Avni and took steps back while looking down and he goes. His feet hit the bag by mistake and Neil stopped. He got hurt to see them. He was happy and excited but not anymore. Avni also saw the bags. Neil turned his face to Avni who also looked at him. They were hurt then Neil goes. 
Later, Avni was sitting on the bed in the darkness, the dim light of the moon was peeping into the room. Shopping bags were on the bed. Someone came and sat on the bed near her. It was Neil. Avni looked at him and she got alert. 
Avni: Neil. 
Neil was not looking at her. Avni got hurt. They remained silent. Neil looked at Avni who was looking down then he turned his face straight. 
Neil: how can you do this, Avni? 
Avni looked at Neil. Neil looked at her. 
Avni: Neil, I am perfectly alright. I consult the doctor and she said, I can conceive. 
Neil: this is not the answer of my question. I didn't ask why did you do that. I asked, how can you do this? 
Avni remained silent. Neil got emotional. 
Neil: Avni, how can you hide about your coma from me? 
Avni: I didn't want to give you stress and then everything was going well so I forgot about it. 
Neil: and when I asked you about the second baby then? Then you can tell me about it but no, you choose to not tell me. 
Avni looked down. Neil looked at Avni. 
Neil: why? 
No answer. 
Neil: why, Avni, why did you do this? 
Avni remained silent and was looking down. Neil got angry. 
Neil: It is about your life damn it. 
Avni looked at Neil. Suddenly, Neil remembered something. 
Neil: one minute. 
Avni was looking at him. 
Neil: I was the one who wished for a second baby. I asked you that I want a child, a baby girl, and want to enjoy this phase. 
Avni was shocked. 
Neil: This means, this means, you took this decision because of me. 
Neil looked at Avni. She cupped his face.
