Hi everyone... Hope all of you are fine. Here in my town a big festival is running for 13 days, circuses, mobile theaters, trade fair and many more. Well..... forget it. Just festive season.
One of my female friend lives in a rent house with her hubby and a 4 years old boy here in my town. She is a teacher and her hubby is a lawyer. The landlord is a young widow (almost same to my friend age, 32/33 years) and she has a lovely baby girl "Diya" of 3/4 years. One day i went to her home and brought some gifts for the kid. Later, at night she made a phone call and told me that after viewing those gifts Diya became upset as she has no one to gift. Next three or four time as i visited her home i gifted Diya too along with my friend's son.
Last night, i went near to my friend's home for a task and wished to visit her. As i entranced, i saw that a big lock was hanging on her room's door. then i called Diya and then Diya came out and her mom welcomed me to inside. I asked about my friends absence and she told me that they three (friend, her hubby and son) have gone to the festival.
WILL BE MY DAD? Suddenly Diya asked me....
TO TOUR US AT FESTIVAL, WE HAVE NO ONE TO GO WITH AND HAVE NO MONEY TOO.
I widened my eyes along with her mom. Speechless totally.
What will you do/tell if you face such an answer? Please share.

hi shiby,
I think the little girl really wanted to enjoy the festival if you think you can survive the noise and many people there is no harm going out with them of course your pocket must be ready right?
Just think how much happiness you can give to that girl if ever you will grant her wish .
happy mylotting

Explain to her logically even though she is a kid. That she has a real dad in alive, and you can't never be her dad. That is wrong. Instead, you can be her God - father of some sort, and make her feel a bit better. Well, she is still a kid, don't take her words seriously. She just craving for another father figure, that is all.

Hello Shibham,
DIYA is just a small kid don't mind her words but try to understand the intention.She is upset to see that your friend's son has gone for outing with his father but DIYA can't as she don't have her father alive.
You can take her for outings may be not as a father but as an uncle & DIYA will surely give you many blessings.
If i were in your place i surely would have taken her along with me to see festive melas.

HI shibham, Kids are are pure at heart and easily fall for the kind hearted persons. You should take Diya and her mom out to the festival. Also you have to find out what's in the mind of Diya's mother as she may not be interested for a relationship. Don't go by the child's decision but if they both have a place in your heart, accept them and give them their share of happiness. best wishes.

Ok shibham. If that is the case, then take the child for festival and outing so that she's happy. Of course her mom too as she'll also feel happy for her child. Also like many others have responded, tell her she can call you uncle and uncle can also make her happy. Since you mentioned her mom is also of your age level, i misunderstood. I know it is hard and you also have to consider your family's concern on marriage as that's our tradition.

Anybody would get aghast at such a question. Kids sometimes come up with such unexpected questions or put us in such odd situations what to tell. One thing is for sure that there is pure innocence in their queries and talks. As you have already mentioned in all your replies that you will take her to the festival celebration as an uncle, may you both enjoy the festival and have a wonderful time together.

Yes, of course you should ask her it would be very courteous and if she has no problem, then you can take her too. Do let us know about your visit to the fair.

I would thank the child for the invitation, sincerely, telling her she is a wonderful child. Then, if I could afford it, and if I had the time the next thing I would say would be "We would have to ask your mother how she feels about that, and if it is okay." If you did not have the time or money or did not want to, you would say to the child, "I am not able to do it today, and I am so sorry." Do not promise another time, and do not make it seem like the mom's fault.

THere was some talk about your marriage to anotehr girl isn't it Shibham earlier? What happened? If your marriage is on the cards, you can tell the little girl that; it would be a big solace to her mother also because she would have been embarrassed by the little girl's request. .THey can be invited to your wedding also .

Now,I wonder how many girls are offering you marriage...
Opsss..of course the little girl is too innocent, but, do you think her mom is not pretty enough to be bride?

Hello amigo!
Haha,you should be proud a child has invited you to be her dad,lol! Children these days are choosy especially if they do not know fully the person and they don't actually go along with someone who they don't see everyday.
Just bring a big money with you 'cause for sure you're gonna spend there,lol!

hey bro don't take me otherwise for my earlier comment.
well kids are too innocent.she had nothing at the back of her mind when she offered you to be her father.she thought that if she would have a father she would also be able to go to festival and that' is why she asked you. don't get some ideas
if i were you i would have told her that i am your uncle dear but i'll surely take you to the festival and give you all that you want.

I will surely take that young little cool girl named diya out for enjoying the festival. sometimes If I am possible i will surely give her little money for her needs. So, she don't want to beg to any one. I will surely consider the girl diya as my lovely sister.
I love you diya.
