33 Baby boo..

The village was very colourful and lively than the town. There were lots of animals. Vivi was ecstatic when she saw those baby goats and chicks. They were still in the car, she fixed her face to the car window and didn't move even when the sun was shining directly on her face. The paddy fields were very refreshing and so many birds were there. There was even a pond in the middle of nowhere. She immediately pulled Nancy's hands and showed her the pond with some birds on the edges.

Nancy was quite amused with her reactions, Vivi was really happy with those little things. For the whole 2 and half hours journey she didn't ask for her parents. She was very happily watching the sceneries outside. "I think it is right decision to bring her to the village for some days. She seems very happy and relaxed" Nancy told James.

"I too thought so." He was also relieved to see her smiling.

"Why don't you and Inir just come back to our village. I feel very lonely here. He can also go to school in our village. What do you say?" Samuel really didn't want his family to be separated. It's not like Inir is going for higher studies or something. It's just a school. If he wants he can go for higher studies anywhere he wants.

"I was also thinking of the same. In next one month, his year will be over, for the next grade we can move him to our village" Nancy replied.

"Vivi baby, do you want to stay with aunty for some more days? you can play with all these animals. what do you say?" Nancy asked Vivi, who immediately nodded her head.

When they reached the house, it was already lunch time. Just in time, James's mother came to visit him with his uncle. Nancy left them to talk and went to prepare lunch for all. Vivi who was new to the place was sticking to Nancy. James mother, when she saw Vivi she was very happy

"oh oh isn't this my grand daughter in law? how pretty you are. come come come to grandma. let me take a good look at you." Vivi first saw Nancy for approval, when the later nodded her head, she smiled at the old lady and went to her.

"What a cute smile you have got? My grandson is indeed lucky" the old lady was very happy and satisfied with Vivi. The day went by with some guest's at home, James also informed his mother that Vivi is going to stay at their house for few days. The old lady for very happy and invited the baby Vivi to her house. The couple said they will bring her some other time. After lunch Vivi slept till evening.

At the Samuel's house.

When Inir and David came back from school, Inir went straight inside and started searching for Vivi. She usually be outside and playing when he come from school. But today she is not there. Searched everywhere, even below his bed and the terrace but she is missing not only Vivi even his mother was not there. But he remembered that his father told him yesterday that his mother will go with him this week to their village as they have some work.

He went to Jasmine.

"Aunty where is Vivi? She is not there anywhere in the house"

"She went somewhere for few days. She will be back after a week" Jasmine sounded very sad but he got some reply. Then he thought about it and got some doubts "Did my mother father took Vivi with them? Is it because I am staying here so Vivi is going to stay with my parents?" Inir was very confused.

"No it's not because of it. But she has to go to village due to some work. She will be back soon. okay?" Jasmine also didn't know what to tell him.

"Okay" he replied curtly and went back to his room.

For the whole week Inir was very silent. As if he was stolen from his favorite toys. But as soon as Saturday came he was ready and waiting to meet Vivi. But jasmine told him that something came up so Vivi will not be coming that day. Even his mother didn't come. He was also a child. He started missing his mother as well. But he can't do anything about it as he is at his uncle's house. Samuel also was in very sad mood. Both men, one small and one big, were sitting on the sofa in front of the TV watching some cartoons. That was Vivi's favorite.

James called in the morning to inform that Vivi didn't want to leave the village so they are not coming. Vivi is very happy and healthy and she didn't miss her parents. So they don't need to worry about her at all. Samuel left a deep sigh and looked at his side. He noticed Inir, and immediately asked him "Inir, do you want to go to Village and visit your parents? Vivi is also there we can go there and meet them. What do you say?"

"Okay uncle let's go" Inir was not some who will say no to this. So the two men started getting ready and David also joined with them. Jasmine can't leave as she has to take care of Nina.

The three of them reached the village in the afternoon. Inir directly ran inside and hugged his mother who was waiting for him at the door step. Nancy also dearly missed her son. Then he saw Vivi poking her head behind Nancy and pulled her towards him and hugged her tightly.

Samuel came in-between and pulled his daughter as he hugged to him and kissed her face again and again. But Vivi didn't look happy at all. She was just plainly looking at him. after he finished kissing her she immediately came down and went behind Nancy again. Samuel knew she is still angry so he just smiled bitterly and went inside to meet his friend.

The both men started talking, James told his what happened during the whole week and about Vivi's behavior. It seems Vivi was very happy and relaxed here. She doesn't have any one to rival her here so she doesn't need to worry about anything. She can be carefree as deserves to be.

So they decided to keep her here for few more days. The three kids went to play at the back of the house were the animals are living.

"Inir come play" Vivi called him to play in her sweet voice. Inir was jumping in joy. Immediately ran over to her and pulled her to play. They just ran behind some goats.

For the whole day Vivi keep on calling his name and the little boy was on sugar rush that he didn't even notice that his best friend already left him with his sister and went look for his other friends.

The adults also listened Vivi calling Inir's name. Samuel looked at the couple scrutinizing his eyes at them "You both taught my daughter how to call your son. You people are already robbing me of my daughter"

"No we also don't know where learnt his name from. She didn't even talk to anyone for the whole week" Nancy replied.

"As long as she is happy. It seems this place is quite a good distraction for her" Samuel was not at all worried. Even though he missed his daughter, her well being, safety and happiness comes first.

"I will leave her at your care for next few days"

"No issues. Anyway she is going come to our house in the future. What's the big deal?" James was really happy to have Vivi in his house. Indeed a daughter is the light of the house. Since she came, she always runs around the house and laughs. Something or other thing will be always going on. As Inir also was not here and he was staying alone for so many days, Vivi lit up the house and made it lively. She was his non blood related daughter. She always smiles at him and play with him. Who didn't want to have such a daughter.

That night The three men stayed at the Village. Inir was sleeping with Vivi happily.

The next day, they got ready to leave for the town in the afternoon. Vivi didn't want Inir to leave, she held his hands and keep on calling his name, even though she didn't cry it was evident that she didn't want her friend to leave. But they can't stay here. "I will come next week again to visit you. You wait for me here with baby boo and I will bring some snacks for you"

Baby boo is the baby goat which Inir gifted to her that day morning.

Then they left the Village and went back to the town. This was repeating for the next few weeks until David and Inir's school got over. They came to the village for the summer holidays. It was already planned that Inir's school will be changed to the one in the Village.
