Hello everyone...! After a really long time I'm here with a new update of AvNeil's live in relationship saga...

Well, I dedicate this chapter to @Shreya_patel160 for waiting patiently for this update since an year...! Yes, she has waited for this from the time I used to write on India forums...

And now without much a do... Will let you all to read...

Note : not proof read

Happy reading ! 😊

"Neil...! Kaha ho ? Sab log aa gaye par tu nai aaya..! aur kitna wait karayega...? Kabhi toh time pe aaya karo na... I'm so pissed with you Neil. Abhi 5 minute mei nahi pauhncha na toh dekh le na..." Avni had almost screwed the hell out of Neil on phone.

"Baby please... Aa rah hu...bas 10 minute..." Neil tried to pacify his already miffed wifey.

"Whatever..!" Avni exclaimed and cut the call whereas Neil heaved a sigh of relief...yeah relief from further scoldings from his Avni.

"Bachaaa... Kya hua ? Chilla kyu rhi thi...?" Neela barged into Avni's room.

"Toh dekho na aapke ladle ko... Humari jaan ki Naming ceremony hai aaj aur yeh Mr India ki tarah gayab..! Saare guests aa chuke hai...aur yeh little madam chup hone ka naam hi nai le ri...bas roye jaa rhi hai...Neil abhi se isse bigaad ke rakh diya hai...ab voh jab tak isse apne godh mei nai lega yeh chup hone wali nai hai... Aur voh bechari Avantika aur uski family se kitna help lu...sare arrangements mei help ki unlogo ne... Neil itna late kyu kar raha hai...?!"

"Avni... Bacha...Relax...calm down... Lao jaan ko mujhe do aur tum baitho... itna tension kyu le rahi ho...aa jayega Neil..."

Neela took the baby in her hands and made Avni sit on the bed.

"Avni...bilkul wife mode pe aa gayi ho ab toh...hehe" Neela chuckled.

"Maa... please... Ab phirse shadi ka topic mat lao na..." Avni whined as if she's tired.

"Nahi beta... Voh toh..." Before Neela could complete they heard a voice.

"Avni akka... the guests are waiting !" Avantika entered the room.

"Hi aunty... I just came over to call you... I think we need to start the ceremony, cuz the guests are waiting since long time..."

Avantika greeted Neela and said what she felt right.

"Dekho ma...saare guests wait kar rahe hai...hum Neil ke Bina hi ceremony start kaise kare ?" Avni almost in tears.

"Shshh... Bacha voh aa jayega...hum thoda guests ko uljhaye rakhte hai na... Kuch batien karke...chalo abhi..." Neela pacified Avni and took her and the baby to their hall.

**********

"Hello everyone... First of all I apologise for making you all wait... Secondly I thank each one of you for making time for my little one and arriving to bless her...She's indeed fortunate to have been raised here amongst you all who've welcomed her parents with all the love and no judgements of being unmarried...and have wholeheartedly accepted her also as a part of the society. Thanks again...! Please feel free to munch on the snacks and see our darling's cute pictures onscreen until we unveil our princess' name...!" Avni ended her speech with a sweet smile.

Soft instrumental music was played and the guests cheered for AvNeil's baby girl as they saw the video of the baby's pictures being played onscreen.

Avantika played the video that had pictures of the baby's from the day she was born...all the pictures were clicked by Neil himself as he loved to capture his girl's innocence in pictures and later wanted to show her all those when she grew up.

(Few of AvNeil's baby girl 😊❤️)

Just when the video was about to end... And the guests were awwing on her pictures... Neil entered the hall holding a huge rectangular box in his hand...

"Avni... Dekho Neil aa Gaya... Bola tha na..." Neela nudged Avni.

"Hmm..." Is all Avni replied.

Neil quickly went and kept the box aside...and walked up to Avni.

"Avni... See I'm on time..! Ab toh naraaz mat ho please..." Neil pleaded.

"Maa...isse kaho ki hume ceremony start karni hai...aur time naa waste kare..." replied a miffed Avni.

"Neil...tum dono baad mei jagda karna...abhi ceremony shuru karte hai..." Neela suggested.

"Jee maa..." Neil said and went ahead to open the box that he bought.

He opened the box and took out a wooden thing that resembled a small board... He hung it on the wall...though nobody knew what it was since the board was covered with a tiny curtain.

Neil looked at Avni and blinked his eyes to call her to him...and she obediently did so... She carried her baby clad in a beautiful blue frock and went to stand next to Neil. As soon as she stepped closer to Neil... Little Miss darling leaned towards him as if asking him to carry her...

It was a sight to behold for everyone present there...specially for Neela.

Neil, held his princess happily and gave a peck on her cute little rosy cheek and said..."Dear all...! I once again thank you all for gracing our little one's naming ceremony... Now is the time to unveil our pride, our priceless possession, our bundle of joy, our princess' name..."

"Pandit ji...abhi aap vidhi shuru kijiye..." Avni instructed the pandit.

The pandit then chanted mantras and offered prayers to the god. He bought a huge plate full of rice and said Neil to write the baby's name on it.

Unlike the pandit said, Neil held Avni's hand and both together wrote their daughter's name "Parthavi"

While the ceremony was going on... Avantika was explaining the guests over there each detail since they would not know Indian customs and rituals.

"Abhi bachhi ki daadi ko inke kaan mei theen bar Naam ko bolna hai..." Pandit said while AvNeil's faces turned pale since Neil's mother was still not on talking terms with them.

But Neela was there to their rescue..."Pandit ji... Naani bhi toh yeh kar Sakti hai na.."

And she took the baby in her arms and said "Parthavi" three times in her ears.

Avni and Neil had tears of happiness witnessing the moment...

"Abhi maata pita bhi bachi ke kaan mei theen bar Naam bole...iske Baad naamkarann ki vidhi puri hothi hai..." the pandit said.

Avni and Neil together say the name of the baby in her ears three times as instructed by the pandit.

Then, Avni and Neil hold each other's hands and go near the board and unveil the curtain. The board says "Parthavi" inscribed in wood but coloured in blue. Avni's eyes turn moist seeing the board that had a personal touch.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we've chosen the name "Parthavi" for our daughter...which means "Daughter of Earth" indeed because she's daughter of my Avni..." Neil said and got emotional.

Now the name board felt meaningful for everyone... It meant Daughter of Avni and it was in blue colour that signified Neil's name... AvNeil's beautiful union in its purest form of Parthavi...

Avni hugged him and their baby... While everyone cheered for them as they applauded in joy.

*************

The party went on really well and Parthavi being the apple of everyone's eyes had a great time too...neither she cried nor made a fuss of being around many people. Indeed a good girl...!

Almost while the party was about to get over... Neil excused himself and went aloof to stand near a corner window...

He had this mixed emotions of being extremely happy and being extremely sad at the same time... Well, happy for his daughter and Avni... Sad that his parents aren't a part of his happiness.

His eyes turned moist as he stared at the sky outside the window...

He felt a warm hand on his shoulder from behind...in a reflex he turned to hug the person assuming it's Avni... But stopped himself as he saw the person in front of him while he shed few tear drops that escaped from his eyes...
