Savior Of Her Heart

Chapter 64: Ch.63/ Baby Shower

Anupama's POV:-

The ritual of Saadh which is commonly known as Baby Shower in foreign countries, is the most important ritual performed for pregnant women as per our Indian culture. Usually, it should be performed three times during pregnancy. The first one is in the fifth month of pregnancy which is called Panchammrita and the second one is in the seventh month of pregnancy which is called Saptammrita. But duo to some circumstances Mamoni couldn't be here at that times and that's why the ritual of Saadh is going to be performed today. Currently, I am nine months pregnant while Jasmine di has entered in her eight months of pregnancy.

I was very sad at first thinking that Mamoni wouldn't be able to come here to perform the ritual as in our bengali culture, the ritual is done by the parental side of the pregnant woman. But now that the ritual is going to be performed regarding our tradition, I am feeling extremely happy to get all the blessing for the baby.

This is a totally female-oriented ritual so the male has no role in it. During the ritual the elder women of the family showers the pregnant lady with lots of blessing and serves her various types of food. When I was pregnant with Advira I didn't get to enjoy this ritual as I wasn't in a happy mood because of the turmoil that was going on in my life. But this time I am very excited for this ritual.

Both Jasmine di and I are getting ready in my bedroom as it is the biggest room in the mansion so we don't have to bump with each other while getting ready. Not only Mamoni but Jasmine di's mom has also come here to perform the ritual so you can guess the excitement in us. Surprisingly, Mama Melody along with Bianca and Olivia has decided to wear sarees for today's function.

"Are you both ready?" Jasmine di's mom asks while walking inside the room.

"Yes we are done, mom." Jasmine di replies with a smile.

"Both of you are looking so beautiful and the glow in your faces can not be compared to anything." Jasmine di's mom says before hugging both of us.

"Let's go to the living room where everyone is waiting for you." By saying this Jasmine di's mom starts to guide us downstairs.

Upon arriving there I smile looking at the simple yet cute decoration for the ceremony done by Bianca and Olivia. When they notice Jasmine di and me, they walk towards us before hugging us. After that they make us sit on the little couch which is also beautifully decorated with flowers.

I am completely amazed looking at the arrangement in front of me that I can feel moisture gather around the corner of my eyes. But I am not going to ruin this beautiful day by crying just because I can not control my emotions.

Mamoni is the one who first comes near me and Jasmine di before taking the plate full of holy things in her hand and starts the ritual. She also gives each of us gold jewelry as gifts along with some baby stuffs. After that one by one, all the ladies of our families bless us before handing us gifts. Finally, the time comes when we are going to be served some of our favorite dishes to eat in bronze utensils. However, I have never guessed that there will be so many dishes that we need to eat.

"You both need to finish all the foods on the plates." Mamoni instructs us which makes us both a little pale because it's a lot of food we are talking about.

"But Chhoto mami how can we finish all these foods alone?" Jasmine di whines making all the ladies laugh at her.

"Okay, fine you can share this food with your niece." Mamoni replies with a smile.

"Oh, that's a relief. But Advira is so small." Jasmine di wonder aloud looking helpless.
