Breaking the news

Me: Tochi, look at this picture. Can you tell what it is?
Nidhi: No, what is it?
Me: Look, haven't I shown you another picture like this before, on my mobile phone.
Nidhi: Is it me in your tummy?
Me: Yes, that's the one on the phone. This is not you. This is another baby inside the tummy.
Nidhi: Ohhhh!
Me: Whose tummy is it, can you guess? See, the lady's name is on the picture.
Nidhi (reading 'Bini'): So, is it your tummy?
Me: Yes
Nidhi: So, is there a baby inside your tummy?
Me (smiling): Yes
Nidhi: So, are you pregnant!
Me: Yes!
Nidhi: So you are pregnant. But you don't have to get married, because you are already married.
