! Ishaan Chronicles ! October 19 at 6:19am 2014.
As a child, I yearned for a sibling. Unfortunately, my parents had a different perspective on this, and I was always alone. During those years, I often dreamt of a small child with whom I would play and horse around. I'd find myself pampering the little one and babysitting him like an older brother would. The kid would wait at the entrance of my house, as if waiting for someone to bring him in. (I'm still trying to figure out the significance of this specific dream). My dad, being the youngest of his 11 siblings, meant all my cousins were at least 10 to 12 years older than me. As a result, I never got a chance to be with a newborn and experience those exciting emotions.
Ishaan, our bundle of joy, arrived after five years of our marriage. He was born in Chennai, and October 19th, 2014, was the day he arrived in Bangalore. The Ishaan chronicles will take us through the first day of his arrival in Bangalore and many exciting days to come!
The incident:
I rushed to the 6th platform at Yeshwantpur railway station to meet little Ishaan and my better half. I had to pick them up from the station, where they were waiting with my in-laws. As I approached, numerous emotions surged within me. I was excited to see how Ishaan would react to me. Would he recognize me as his father? This question buzzed in my head as I approached them with excitement masked in my smile.
