Today was the day when Anika's life was going to change and definitely for good. She has faced many problems, she has made some beautiful memories with her love, but now she's going to face the most irritating yet cute gestures by SOMEONE SPECIAL.

Anika woke up at six am which wouldn't have been normal if she was the old Anika, but she is changed now because she doesn't have the most Important person of her life with her. She completed her morning chores and came to the hall and saw Maan and Geet already sipping their Black Tea and Masala chai respectively. She also sat down to have her Espresso. There was a time when she used to hate it but now it is her way to remember him, to make herself feel that he is with her.

Maan : So, is that baker joining today, Geet ?

Geet spat the tea and chocked hearing Maan's question. (She thought) "Voh toh jab join karega tab karega par jab inn donon ko pata chalega ki voh aakhir hai kaun toh yeh donon toh mujhe shaheed kar denge. (who cares when he's going to join but when these two will come to know who he is, they are going to kill me and I'll be a martyr)."

Geet : y...yes

Maan said to Geet that she's behaving as a student who's teacher caught her when she was doing cheating while Anika laughed at Maan's stupid statement. Geet nodded negatively and smiled  neevously. She gulped the lump that was formed in her throat. 

The trio had their breakfast and Maan said that he will accompany them till cafe and then go to the office directly. The trio reached the cafe. It was really surprising for Maan and Anika to find it already open. They looked at Geet for an explanation and she covered up saying that she gave the keys to her friend to give to the baker so that he can come and start his work early in the morning. Maan rebuked her as how could she give the keys to someone whom they haven't even met. Anika controlled the matter saying it was ok as Geet gave the keys to her friend. 

Maan and Anika went inside to meet that famous baker while Geet was standing there, praying for her well being. As soon as they went inside they heard some sounds of utensils coming from the kitchen. Anika was feeling an unknown urge to go inside as soon as possible, the same feeling that she feels when Shivaay is near her. But how could it be possible as Shivaay couldn't be here. So the trio made their way towards the kitchen and as soon as they entered they saw a man working.

Maan : Excuse me !

Seeing the person's face Maan's blood boiled, Anika was numb and Geet closed her eyes and crossed her fingers, silently praying for her safety. Feeling the atmosphere so calm and quite, she peeped through one eye to look if the storm has passed or it was yet to come. Her assumption was right. The storm hasn't passed yet. Maan and Anika looked at Geet for an explanation and she was looking Up and down and right and left and everywhere except for them. Maan's voice was enough to make her look at them and she made a face as if she was the most innocent person on the earth.

Maan asked in a calm voice : What is he doing here, Geet ?

Geet : I...I don't know. How would I know ? I also saw him just now.

Anika wasn't reacting at all. She was still thinking as when she'll be able to understand him. How much ever she thought now she's understanding him and his actions, he manages to prove her wrong.

Without any fight or argument, Maan asked Shivaay to leave. He didn't want to make Anika tensed so he choose to be calm. 

Shivaay : Sir, It's first day of my work and you're asking me to leave.

She said with the most innocent look.

Maan asked him to leave while being a little harsh but not too much so as not to hurt Anika. Geet understood that Maan was trying to control his anger only because of Anika. So she decided to talk to him about her and Shivaay's plan.

She took Maan with her. Maan jerked her hand and asked what's all this ? Geet then asked him to be calm and listen to her for once atleast for Anika’s sake. She knew he can't deny when something is for Anika's sake. Though she was not Maan's real sister but Maan cared for her and her happiness was above everything else. Then Geet narrated how all this started.

Shivaay called Geet to meet him in the cafe because right now only Geet could help him. On the other side, Geet knew that Maan would not have let her go so she made an excuse. Shivaay and Geet were sitting silently sipping their coffee. Geet was wandering what he's going to talk about. She didn't know him much, but yesterday she saw the vulnerable Shivaay and angry Shivaay too. Shivaay too observed her dilemma. Breaking the silence shivaay spoke.

Shivaay : Geet I need your help.

Geet chocked and Shivaay chuckled. Geet already knew that matter would be something like this only. But she was not getting words to say anything infact she was in dilemma whether to say yes or not.

Geet : Dekhiye m....mai voh actually...

Shivaay : Geet, I know you don't know me well but you know Anika, right ? Whatever I've done you must be very angry with me. But Anika needs her family's support. She deserves happiness.

Geet was somewhat convinced but still she had a Dusht danav (Maan) who won't let Shivaay come near Anika. After a lots of persuation from him she agreed to help him and they made this plan.

Maan didn't want to agree to it but still for Anika’s wellfare, he gave up but also warned Geet that if Shivaay harmed or hurt Anika in anyway, she knows him well. Geet thanked him for understanding her, and also for not murdering her.

Anika regained her composure and made a stern face.

Anika : What are you doing here ?

Shivaay : I'm here for my LIFE.

Anika was annoyed. Why can't he leave her alone when she wants to be ? It was just her false assumption that she wants to be away from him but the truth was, every part of her wanted to be him.

Anika : Shivaay please go away from here.

Shivaay : Mam but I need this job FOR MY LIFE. I mean, I need to earn to live.

He told her in a simple, casual way making Anika annoyed to the core, her pregnancy moodswings were adding fuel to the fire.

Anika : Stop your drama. You can't work here. Moreover, SHIVAAY SINGH OBEROI will work in this small cafe and that too the work of a SERVANT ?

She smirked as she hit the perfect chord and that was bagad billa's ego, she knew he won't be able to do this as he the great SSO will never take orders from anyone.

But he was SSO. He knew all her strategies. Moreover, he was here as Anika's Shivaay, he was here to woo her, to make her his, to take her and 'their' children back with him and he will do it.

Shivaay smiled and said : Mam, whom are you talking about ? Shivaay Singh Oberoi, I've heard this name for the first time.

Anika's mouth was in a perfect O shape whereas Shivaay was smirking seeing her expressions.

Anika in her mind : Let ne see till when this bagad billa keeps his tadi aside. If he's SSO then I'm also Anika. I will make him remember his nani's nani (great grand mom). I will give him so much of work that he'll leave by himself.

She was smiling or to say smirking while Shivaay was sure that now something is going on in her khurafati brain but he was so happy to see her smiling, the same smile which is enough to make his day, which is like light in the darkness for him.

All this wasn't only witnessed by Sbivaay but also by Maan and Geet. Geet was happy as Anika was smiling because of Shivaay. Now she had no doubts about her decision whether it was right or not. Because right and wrong doesn't matter as long as her friends is happy. Maan was also happy and his anger which he had for Shivaay was somewhat melting but he maintained a stern face. Anika's voice broke their thoughts.

Anika : Ok. You'll have to give a test. If you qualiified, the job is yours.

Shivaay : But I've been given the job already.

Anika : Are you scared ?

Shivaay : SSO..I mean I'm not scared. Challenge accepted.

Anika : Ok then, You'll have to do what I say and that too for a day, if you do it well then the job will be yours.

Shivaay, in his tadi and also because of his love, accepted the challenge, not knowing what his lady was upto.

Anika : Ok then you'll have to take orders and prepare them. After the customers leave you'll have to clean the tables. After the cafe is closed you'll have to clean the whole kitchen and the cafe as well. Is it enough ?

Shivaay was already sweating but now he had accepted the challenge and he had to do it. This is was nothing infront of the reward it will bring him. He was ready to do anything to get his Anika back.
