RIO est arrive

Monday 28 appeared to be like any other Mondays at work....u know, busy, a bit intense, and around 5pm, Matia passes by my desk, on the way to the tennis table room (it's a ritual). I follow him, convinced it's gonna be another one of the 'i kick his arse' day but it turns out to be different....he tells me Arati is gonna have the baby today....i am like ....no way, she has time....and then he adds, she has just come back out of the doctor's who said she is 8cm....and it's time to go to the hospital....between the excitement, the surprise we forget about ping pong and i come back to my desk shocked that, that same day the desai wagabaza family will count three. And as Matia disappears from the earth (well the office) Marty calls me to ask me when i will be done and explains he took Arati and Matia to the hospital. At 7pm, i speak to Arati who sounds really calm and happy. Her tranquility made me admirative. She was very down to earth, not panicky with what was ahead of her and said the doctor estimated that in 1hour 30 min, they would have a baby.
How wonderful and accurate cos' that night at 8.20, little Rio joined our world.

All went well....and Marty told me about his afternoon with Arati who was in labour on the sofa but did not seem to worry about it too much as cups of tea, chat and ice cream were much more exciting. They even planned to go to the Ivy the following day.

Tuesday at the first hour, Marty and i went to meet Rio and how perfect, tiny was he....so cute....unreal. Arati looked the happiest, ever, and Matia was on another planet, they were on a cloud. It looked right.

I am so happy for them and cannot wait to hang out with our little Rio.
