Anika saw the males.

Anika(drunk+shocked): aree aap log?

Shivaay: yeh kya ho raha hai?

Dadi: PARTY!!!!!!

Dadi was gulping the drink. Shivaay ran to her and snatched the bottle which was empty.

Dadi: haaye billu bottle kyu chhin li meri?

Shivaay: dadi aap yeh kya kar rahi hai?

There were many empty bottles laying on the floor

Om: aur kabse pee rahe hai aap log?

Gauri: yaad nahi hai

Om: what?

Anika: aur aap log kyu aaye hai yahan? Haan? Yeh ladies party hai. No males allowed. Jaiye yahan se hume party karni hai

Girls: haan jao jao

Shivaay: no way hum kahin nahi ja rahe aur ab koi party nahi hone wali. Do you get that?

Dadi: waise ladkiyon billu sahi keh raha hai main thak gai hun. Hume ab so jana chahiye

Anika: theek hai dadi aap kehti hai toh so jate hai

Ru: par bhabhi maa yeh galat hai aap akele party kaise kar sakte hai?

Anika: sorry rudy par yeh ladies party thi issiliye

Tej: okay okay leave that ab sab ke sab chalo niche

Anika: ek min om rudra aap dono dadi aur aruna dadi ko room mein leke jao. Papa bade papa aap maa aur badi maa ko leke jaiye. Shivaay aap prinku aur soumya ko leke jaiye.

Shivaay: aur tum chaaron?

Anika: main aur gauri, tia aur mallika ko unke room mein chhod ke aate hai.

Shivaay: okay

They did as anika said. After anika and gauri dropped tia and mallika.

Anika: gauri aaj aap humare sath so jaiye

Gauri: lekin bade bhaiyaa?

Anika: woh om ke sath so jayenge

Gauri: theek hai chalo

They both went to shivika's room and fell on bed and slept. Shivaay came and saw them 

Shivaay: ab main kahan jau? Om ke room mein so jata hu

He went to om's room where he was waiting for gauri. The door opened om thought it's gauri. He spoke without looking

Om: aa gai tum?

Shivaay(imitating gauri): haan omkaraji hum aa gaye

Om: shivaay. Tu?

Shivaay: haan main

Om: gauri kahan hai?

Shivaay: aree woh gauri aur anika mere room mein so gaye hai

Om: toh main usse leke aata hun. Tu soja

Shivaay: aree nahi let them be. Main yahan so jau?

Om: puch kyu raha hai. Main aur rudra tere room puchke aate the sone?

Shivaay: nahi it's your room too

Om: exactly then this is your room too. Soja

Shivaay: nahi rudra ke room mein chalte

Om: good idea.

They went to rudra's room. They saw him sleeping peacefully. Both looked at each other and smirked. They went to the either sides of the bed and jumped on him. Rudra jerked up

Rudra: ayee kon hai?

ShivOm: hum hai

Rudra: aap log yahan kya kar rahe ho?

Shivaay: sone aae hai

Ru: kyu? Apne apne room mein jaiye na. Mujhe kyu pareshan kar rahe hai?

Om smacked his head.

Om: hum aaj yahin soenge

Ru: kyu gauri bhabhi aur bhabhi maa ne room se bahar nikal diya kya?

Om: nahi woh dono shivaay ke room mein so gaye hai. Toh hume socha aaj tere room so jate hai

Ru: toh so jao na. Aise attack karne ki kya zarrorat thi?

ShivOm smacked his head and slept.

Next morning anika and gauri woke up early. Holding their heads

Anika(holding her head): aah!! Sar fata ja raha

Gauri: humara bhi

Anika: ek kam karte hai jaldi se ready ho jate hai. Phir nimbu pani bane ke peete hai

Gauri: haan

They got ready in there respective rooms and went to kitchen. They were preparing lime juice for themselves and for others too

Anika: shivaay tumhare room mein the na?

Gauri: nahi omkaraji bhi nahi the

Anika: dono kahan gae?.... shayad rudra ke room mein honge

Gauri: ho sakta hai

Anika: yeh lo ban gaya.

They had the juice

Gauri: abhi koi utha nahi hai. Hum nasta bana lete hai

Anika: haan gana bhi bajate hai

They were preparing breakfast playing some songs and singing and dancing too. ShivOmRu came to kitchen and shocked to see them awake and dancing while preparing breakfast

Shivaay: aap logo ki party abhi tak khatam nahi hui?

They got stopped dancing

Anika: aree uth gae aap log. Good morning

Shivaay: maine kuch pucha?

Gauri: aree bade bhaiyaa woh toh bas aise hi. Abhi bandh karte hai

She stopped the song.

Om: aap log itni jaldi kaise uth gaye? Hume toh laga aapki morning afternoon mein hi hogi

Shivaay: woh sab chhodo. Kal kya tha woh sab?

Anika: aree kaha toh tha aapse ladies party thi.

Shivaay: woh toh theek hai. Par drink karne ki kya zarrorat thi?

Anika: bina drinks ke party party thodi hoti hai. Haina rudra?

Ru: haan woh toh hai

Shivaay glared him. He kept slient

Om: par bhabhi dadi ko kyu peene di? Unki health ke liye theek nahi hai.

Anika: mujhe pata hai. Main pagal nahi hun. Maine unhe aur aruna dadi ko sirf chaar glass hi diye the

Shivaay: haan aur phir chaar bottle

Gauri: aree nahi bade bhaiyaa uss bottle main sharab nahi thi

Ru: toh kya tha?

Anika: juice tha. Chaar glass ke baad unhe chad gai toh unhe pata bhi nahi chala ke woh juice hai.

Shivaay: mom aur bade maa ke bottles mein bhi juice tha?

Anika: nahi hum sabne alchohol hi peeya tha

Shivaay: what???

Anika: itna shock hone ki zarrorat nahi hai.

Shivaay: aaj tak maine itni nahi pee aur tum bottle pe bottle peeye ja rahi thi

Gauri: aree hume sirf 4 bottle hi pee thi

Om(shocked): sirf 4 bottle?

Anika: haan parso 6 pee thi kal toh 4 hi pee thi

Shivaay(super shocked): parso matlab do din se party kar rahe the?

Anika: aree hum toh sirf parso ek din hi karne wale the tab dadi nahi aai thi. Jab humne unhe kaha ke kitna maza aaya toh unhe bhi party karne ka maan ho gaya.

Gauri: issilye kal bhi party ki.

Shivaay: waise kis khushi mein party ho rahi thi?

Anika: anvai

Shivaay: what do you mean by anvai?

Anika: aree man kiya toh ki party

Shivaay: you are impossible

Gauri: aaj pata chala aapko?

They chuckled and anika glared at gauri

Ru: waise toh dadi hume kehti hai der raat tak party nahi chahiye. Aur aaj khud hi

Anika: aree uss mein kya hua? Dadi ne aaj tak sab ke bare mein hi socha hai, sabke liye hi jeeya hai. Ek din khud ke bare mein soch liya khud ke liye jee liya. Uss mein galat kya hai?

Om: haan bhabhi is right. Dadu ke jaane ke baad dadi's life only revolving around us. It's okay ek din party kar li toh

Dadi and aruna dadi came holding their heads

Dadi: haaye rabba sar fatta ja raha hai

Aruna: mera bhi

Anika: aree dadi aap log kyu aa gaye hume bula liya hota.

Dadi: koi baat nahi. Mujhe jaldi se nimbu paani bane de puttar

Gauri: aree tyar hi hai. Yeh lijiye

She gave them the juice and they gulped it down

Anika: waise dadi maza aaya na?

Dadi: haan. Jawani ke din yaad gaye haina aruna

Aruna dadi: haan kalyani. Maza aa gaya

Ru: aree aap abhi bhi jawan hi ho. Kal dekha humne kya dance kiya aapne. Main toh flat ho gaya aap pe (dramatically)

Dadi: chup khoteya

Shivaay: nahi dadi dance toh aap bohat aacha kar rahi thi. "Haaye Garmi"

They laughed

Anika: acha chalo nasta tyar hai aap log kar lijiye

Dadi: baki sab?

Shivaay: baki sab so rahe dadi. Papa aur bade papa abhi aate hi honge

They had the breakfast and the males went to their respective works. After sometime the rest ladies woke up. Anika gave them the lime juice and breakfast

After having the food.

Tia: anika I should leave now.

Mallika: even I should leave

Anika: ek din aur ruk jao na

Tia: nahi dushyant ko aaj sham ko ek business trip pe jana hai aur aarav(her son) ghar pe akela hai. So..

Mallika: aur kal mujhe ek bohat important meeting ke liye presentation ready karni hai. Jo mai bhool gai thi

Anika: okay. Jaldi milne aana

Tia/mallika: off course

They hugged anika and bid farewell to the rest and left. Aruna dadi also left in the evening

Next morning

In shivika's room

It was quite early. Shivaay was sleeping. He turned and placed his hand on the other side to hug his life. He opened his eyes finding it empty

Shivaay: yeh anika kahan gai? (Shocked) kahin phir se party toh nahi kar rahe? Dekhna padega

He went in search of anika. He searched everywhere but didn't found her.

Shivaay: kahan gai yeh pure ghar mein dekh liya. Kahin nahi hai

Gauri was going to kitchen. Shivaay stopped her

Shivaay: gauri

Gauri: ji bade bhaiyaa

Shivaay: tumne anika ko dekha kahin?

Gauri: nahi humne toh nahi dekha. Kya hua?

Shivaay: pure ghar mein dekh liya kahin nahi hai

Gauri: sab jagah dekh liya

Shivaay: haan

Gauri: ek baar phone kar ke dekh lijiye

He called her but she didn't pick up

Shivaay(worried): phone bhi nahi utha rahi

Gauri: bade bhaiyaa chinta mat kijiye mil jaiyegi

Shivaay was still tensed. After sometime she came from jog. Shivaay was shocked seeing her dress and was relieved to see her. But anika was lost somewhere.

Anika's dress

Shivaay came to her and hugged her which brought her back.

Anika: kya hua shivaay?

Shivaay: kahan thi tum? Aur yeh kya kapde pehene hai?

Anika: main jog par gai thi. Aur yeh jogging ke kapde pehene hai.

Shivaay: jog pe aur tum?

Anika: haan. Kyu? Nahi ja sakti?

Shivaay: par tumhein toh exercise ke naam se hi michmichi hoti thi

Anika: matlab hadd hai. Exercise karun toh problem na karun toh problem. Aap chahte kya hai?

Shivaay: kuch nahi. Bata ke nahi ja sakti thi?

Anika: aree maine note chhoda tha table pe padha nahi

Shivaay: kahan?

Anika: aree table par hi tha. Dekha nahi aur bina break ke truck ki tarah mujhpe chad gae. Waah

Shivaay was not having answer so he divert the topic

Shivaay: acha theek haina. Ab ready ho jao

Anika: nahi abhi nahi.

Shivaay: kyu?

Anika: mujhe gym room jana hai

She went without listening and started bench press and was lost in her thoughts

Anika's POV

Was that my imagination or reality. No No... I must be hallucinating. It can't be him. But I saw.... I think I am over thinking let it be.

POV ends

She was so engulfed by her thoughts that she didn't realized that shivaay was calling her.

Shivaay: yeh sun hi nahi rahi.

He again called her but no response. Anika was doing bench press and halting at the regular interval of 5. She stopped. Shivaay thought to put more weight so she can come out of her thinking world. He added some weight. She lift the dumbbell and again started.

Shivaay was shocked. He again added some weight. But still she was in her world and doing bench press.

Shivaay(shocked): yeh itne aaram se bench press kaise kar sakti hai aur woh bhi itne weight ke saath. Anika!!

No respone

Rudra came and saw shivaay

Ru: aree bhaiyaa aaj aap yahan gym room mein?

Shivaay: main toh isse bulane aaya hun

He pointed anika. Rudra was shocked to see the weight.

Ru: bhaiyaa bhabhi maa aur itna weight?

Shivaay: weight chhod pata nahi kahan gum hai. Kabse aawaz de raha hun sun hi nahi rahi. Toh maine do baar weight add kiya phir bhi aaram se bench press kar rahi hai

Ru: kuch bhi

Shivaay: aree sachi. Ruk dikhata hun

She halt and he added more weight but still she was easily lifting it

Shivaay: dekha?

Ru(shocked): bhaiyaa itna weight toh main bhi nahi utha sakta

Shivaay: anika!!!

Shivaay sigh and brought the glass of water and splash it on her. She finally came out. She kept the dumbbell and sat up.

Anika: kya hua? Paani kyu feka?

Shivaay: taki tum aapni duniya se bahar aa sako

Anika: kya?

Shivaay: itna kya soch rahi thi ke tumhein itna weight badhne par bhi pata nahi chala

She saw the weight and was shocked

Anika: yeh weight kisne badhaya

Ru: bhaiyaa ne. Lekin bhabhi maa itna weight toh main bhi nahi utha sakta. Aapne kaise kiya?

Anika: aise

She again laid and lift the dumbbell

Shivaay: acha bas bas.

She stopped

Ru: waah bhabhi maa

Anika: thank you. Kal se roz aaungi tumhein company dene

Shivaay: company kal dena. Ab chalo

Anika: haan

They left and got ready. All had their breakfast with some talks and rudra's lame jokes.

After breakfast. The ladies where sitting in the hall. Dadi was talking about ShivOmRuPri's childhood

Pinky: anika pata hai jab shivaay chota tha tab bhi itna hi gussa karta tha. Usski toh tasveere bhi hai gussa karte hue.

Anika: sachii. Mujhe dekhni hai

Dadi: store room mein album pada hai. Main khanna ko bolke mangati hun

Anika: dadi khanna ji nahi hai. Main leke aati huna.

Dadi: haan theek hai. Woh almari mein pada hoga.

Anika: theek hai abhi lati hun

She went to store room and found the album. While taking the album some other documents fell. She sat and collect the documents to put it back. When her eye caught some file.

Anika: yeh kya hai?

She took it and read it only to be shocked......

******
That's it for the day

Whom did anika saw?
What was in the file that shook anika?

Socho Socho.....
