"We should have gone with a C-section... Vaginal Delivery was too painful huh, that's why I told you earlier, you were adamant to leave the decision on doctors", Abhyansh said

"Because they'll see an option that would cause minimal side effects in the later stage... You see, according to the data, each pregnancy reduces the mother's life span by a few years, I wanted to minimize that, because maybe after a certain age, my children will be able to live without me, my brother, best friends, family, everyone will learn to live without me, everyone but you,so I had to take care of myself for my Rana sa", she said with a smile but his distress was visible on his face...

"We won't have different life spans Jaan, one life and one span... I won't be living even a minute more after you", Abhyansh said, Isha hit him on his mouth...

"Don't say such words...", She warned glaring at him...

"Sorry... Ignore my words, We have many more years to even think about getting old", Abhyansh said smirking at Isha...

"Chi...! Rana sa... Stop thinking so vulgar, at least when kids are around", Isha said and Abhyansh's smirk widened...

"I didn't say a word that seemed vulgar... I can't help if you could read my mind just looking at my face", Abhyansh shrugged, Isha shook her head at her dirty-minded husband.

"Have you spoken to the Kulguru regarding the naming ceremony ?", Isha asked feeding her daughter, rubbing her back...

"Yes... there is a good time in the coming week ? But would you be able to sit for so long if it's going to be next week ?", Abhyansh asked

"Yeah, I think I'll manage, it's just for a day... It's better to name them as early as possible, I can't bear your brooding face, whenever bhai or myself addresses them with their nicknames", Isha said rolling her eyes... But Abhyansh understood she couldn't sit for so long.

"Really ? You call them nicknames? Let it be, I don't want to discuss those names. Regarding the naming ceremony, I don't think you could sit for so long now, I have asked the Kulguru to see for an auspicious time after a few weeks", Abhyansh said, in a decisive tone and Isha knew she couldn't argue with that tone...

Isha nodded, and handed their daughter to Abhyansh before picking up her younger son, who was awake to feed him followed by the elder one...

"Have you thought of any names for them ?", Isha asked

"I have listed a few names for my daughter... We will select the best from those... regarding those two... You can choose", Abhyansh said, pointing towards their sons...

"Rana sa... Now it's becoming too much to bear... You are treating them as if they weren't yo...", Isha started but stopped with Abhyansh's one strong look.

"Don't you dare complete...", Abhyansh warned sharply and Isha quickly apologized, she knew which things triggered her husband and she wasn't allowed to say those things even for fun.

"Okay... You too, don't discriminate among my three kids", Isha said and Abhyansh stayed silent... "Ansh...", Isha called him again but he didn't respond. "Talking to you is such a waste", she chided and laid down shutting her eyes...

"Don't sleep now, it's your meal time, have it and then doze off", he said and she opened her eyes to glare at him but looking at a small smile on his face, her anger disappeared... He was smiling at his daughter who woke up to her father's voice, and keptstaring at him... The little princess gave a small smile looking at her father which made Abhyansh smile too...

"Great... Brooding daughter of a brooding father, she never smiled till date, but look at her now", Isha commented...

"Aw... You want Baba to hold you hm ?", Abhyansh asked softly, taking his daughter in his arms who squealed in delight at the contact with her father... "See what mumma is saying... How can she call you brooding when you are such a good baby...", Abhyansh talked to his daughter as if she understood his every word. His daughter moved his hands and legs squealing as if she was excited hearing her father talk. Isha kept staring at the father-daughter with awe, it was such a beautiful sight, to see the softest version of her husband...

Isha smiled imagining the bonding this father-daughter would form in the future if this is the case when she is just days old.

-----------------------------------

It was the day of the naming ceremony for the triplets. Kulguru suggested different birth star Pujas(ceremonies) for the triplets for their well-being, and after completing them, Isha and Abhaynsh started with the charity they organized, followed by the naming ceremony.

Abhyansh looked at Isha one last time if she would change her decision but she shook her head to which Abhyansh nodded and whispered the names in their triplets' ears.

"Maharaj... Please announce the names, starting with your first-born", the Kulguru said

"Arhat Rajput Ranawat, Adhyat Rajput Ranawat, Atimya Abhyansh Singh Ranawat", Abhyansh announced, Ranveer frowned at how his beast of a brother-in-law gave both Rajput & Ranawat surnames to his sons but only his name + surname to his daughter and it didn't go well with him who fumed in jealousy, he wanted his surname to be added for his niece as well.

Everyone admired how Abhyansh and Isha named all their three children after Lord Shiva. After the ceremony is concluded, the family sat in the hall with Arhat and Adhyat in their respective cribs while Atimya in her father's arms...

"Ranawat... I expected you to be fair, you named all your children starting with 'A', where is my sister's name, and why did you not give our surname to the princess, she has as much Rajput blood as Ranawat blood", Ranveer whined... Abhyansh looked at Isha, no glared at her...

"I was about to name my Elder son Yashiv and younger one Ishiv, taking after their mother, but she wanted all their names to start with 'A', your sister was adamant about it", Abhyansh answered still glaring at his wife...

"I want their names to start with 'A', just like their father's, uncle's, and aunt's (Avyan and Advaita's)", Isha said...
