Khushi POV

It was another morning, I was sleeping soundly. The voice disturbed my sleep "Khushi utho"

I opened my eyes and asked "kya hai mumma?"

"School nhi jaana hai kya tumhe?" She questioned.

I denied and said "no aaj toh avni Di ke saath masti karni hai"

"Khushi, jo karna hai school se aane ke baad karna tumhari Anvi Di bhi school jayengi and bade papa tumhe chod denge" she replied.

I smiled "bade papa chodenge?" I asked.

She nodded with a smile, I stood up from bed and went to bathroom. She moved out of the room.

Ruhana was arranging the breakfast for everyone. She asked "uth gayi khushi?"

"Haan Di.. jaise hi kaha jiju chodenge turant uth gayi" Manvi replied.

Ruhana smiled, Manvi asked "kya hua?"

"Tumhare jiju dono ko subah subah ice cream jo khilayenge" Ruhana spoke.

"Haww.. ab toh Khushi ko main chodungi school" Manvi said.

I came there along with Anvi, I said "no mumma.. Khushi ko bade papa school chodenge aap nahi"

She turned to me and glanced at me "haan subah subah ice cream jo milega"

"Haan aap toh dete hi nhi ho bade papa denge hai na Avni Di?" I asked while looking at Avni.

Avni smiled "haan choti.. Chal hum car mein wait karte hai papa ka" I held her hand and we ran out of the house.

Manvi shouted "Are are.. Breakfast toh karlo"

Ruhana sighed and said "Rehende mannu.. Vineet sambhal lega tum breakfast karke office niklo"

Manvi smiled "thik hai Di.. jiju hai toh mujhe fikar nahi uski" she said.

Malhotra Mansion

Virat sat for breakfast, he asked "Aarav kaha hai?"

"Gym gaya hai aata hi hoga tum apna breakfast karke office jao" Ahana said.

"Are.. tum biwi meri ho par side mere bhai ki leti ho unfair Ahana" Virat complained.

"Mr. Husband don't be jealous.. Jitna side leti hun tumhara kaafi hai tumhare liye" Ahana replied smilingly.

Aarav came back and sat beside Virat. He smiled "Good morning bhabhi.."

"Good morning Aarav" Ahana replied.

Aarav picked up the toast and start eating. Virat said "hello.. Yahan main bhi hun"

Aarav looked at him and smiled "maine kab kaha aap yahan nahi ho bhai.."

Virat hits his head lightly "Aarav bachpana chodo apna"

"Offo bhai ab main bachcha nhi hun kyun bhabhi?" he asked while looking at Ahana.

"Bilkul sahi.. Aajse wo job pe jaa raha hai Virat all the best bolne ki bajaye tum usko tease kar rahe ho" Ahana said.

Virat glanced at her "Ahana isko business sambhalna chahiye kaha ye job ke peeche pada hai"

"Bhai mujhe aapki tarah workaholic nhi banna hai. I need a 9 to 5 job phir ghar aake aaram kyun bhabhi?" he said.

"Right! Ab ready ho jao warna first day hi late ho jaoge" Ahana said.

"Haan bhabhi.. See you in evening" Aarav said and left to his room.

Manvi's POV

I arrived at office, everyone wished me. I smiled "Good morning, Mr. Sharma send me the report in my cabin" I ordered and moved to my cabin.

I sat down at the chair, began working. Mr. Sharma entered inside and kept the file on the table. I looked at it and then at Mr. Mathur "what is this? Maine aapse kaha tha mujhe mere kaam mein assist karne ke liye kisiki zaroorat hai and wo abhi tak appoint kyun nhi hua hai"

"Mam, aaj hi ek ladka aane waala hai.. He is fresh graduate" Mr. Mathur spoke.

Manvi was angry with this, I shouted "fresh graduate? Are you out of your mind? Hamari multi national company ko experienced log chahiye he won't be able to handle the pressure kisne appoint kiya usko?"

"Mam HR sir ne" Mr. Mathur said.

"Ye sab mera kaam badhane mein lage hai aayega toh wapas bhej dena usko" I said.

I heard a voice "aap aise kaise wapas bhej sakti hai bina mera kaam dekhe"

I looked behind and it was a young guy in his twenties. "Who are you bina knock kiye cabin mein kaise aaye?"

"Aarav Malhotra, aapke ke saat kaam karne ke liye mujhe appoint kiya gaya hai mam" He said.

"Lekin mujhe experience employee chahiye" I replied.

"Don't underestimate me.. Main aapke experienced logo se better sabit ho sakta hun" he said proudly.

I glanced at him "mujhe tumhari madad nahi chahiye, ye tarika nhi hai baat karne ka without my permission you entered and interupted please leave"

"Aap mujhe nahi nikal sakti ho. Mere paas appointment letter hai and rules ke mutabik jabtak shareholders ki raza mandi na ho no employee can be fired" he said with a smile.

I fumed in anger but controlled myself. Somewhat I was not liking him, I said "alright, jaake apna kaam karo Mr. Mathur isko kaam samjha do and dubara mujhse bina puche andar mat aana"

He smiled and said "madam.. Mujhe laga tha aap ek ladki hai bahut sensitive hongi but you are strictly professional" left from there.

I sighed.. "Ab mujhe dusra koi dhundhna padega.. Iske saath main ek pal bhi nahi kaam kar paungi"

I moved out of the cabin and glanced at him. He was working, I asked "Mr. Mathur aapne kya kaam diya hai usko?"

"Mam, wo hamara site ke project ki file hai" he said.

I glanced at him in anger "What? Have you gone mad?"

"Sorry mam, but usne kaha tha ki wo aise chote mote kaam nhi karega" he said.

He came to me and stood in front of me "madam, aap gussa mat karo unpe unki galti nahi hai"

"Dekho ye office mere control mein hai samjhe and mujhe pasand nahi hai koi agar meri baat na maane toh" I said strictly.

He smiled and asked "ek baat batayie aap kya maine kisika murder kiya hai? Jo aap mujhse aise baat karti hai anyways yeh lijiye dekh lijiye" he handed the file to me.

I moved back to my cabin and checked the file. He actually highlighted the loopholes and other major problems and left a suggestion.

I looked up, he was peeping into the room with a smile "kaha tha maine koi shikayat nhi hogi"

I closed the file and passed him a deadly glare. He closed the door and left. I was not liking his behaviour. He was too young to handle the pressure of the company but he was intelligent too. It was 6 pm, I picked up my phone and bag and moved out of the office.

I came to parking area, I sat into the car and drove off towards home. I arrived home, Ruhana opened the door and smiled seeing me.

She asked "kya hua? Itni pareshan kyun hai?"

I looked up at her and moved inside. I said "kuch nahi Di.. ek employee aaya hai aaj har baat pe mazak kabhi seriously baat nahi karta"

Ruhana said "ek time pe tum bhi aisi thi mujhe samjhana padta tha tumhe.."

"Pata hai Di.. lekin pata hai he is fresh graduate aur mujhe koi experienced chahiye tha" I said briefly.

"Koi baat nhi hai mannu.. Dheere dheere usko bhi experience ho jayega zyada tension mat liya kar aur please office ki baatein mere ghar mein allowed nhi hai" she said.

I smiled lightly "thik hai Di.." the house was silent, I questioned "baaki sab kaha hai?"

"Kaha hongi? Vineet leke gaya hai unhe shopping karane" She replied.

"Acha lekin main nahi dene waali hun ek bhi paisa khushi ki shopping ka" I said.

"Tujhse maang kaun raha hai.. Waise bhi khushi samajhdar hai wo faltu kharcha nhi karegi" she replied.

"Malum hai Di par jiju toh karwayenge na.." I said.

"Main kya kar sakti hun ismei.. Mujhe beech mein nhi padna hai unn dono ke" she said.

I smiled lightly and kept my head on her shoulder. She patted my head lightly.

Khushi's POV

I and Avni were busy trying dresses. Vineet asked "ladkiyon jaldi karo ghar bhi jaana hai"

"Bade papa give me 2 minutes main aati hun" I said.

Avni spoke "papa.. Chalo na mumma aur maasi ke liye bhi kuch le lete hai"

"Haan thik hai chalo" he moved with her.

My eyes fell on the soft toy. I smiled seeing it. I picked it up and took it to the counter but did not find Avni and Vineet. "Are Di aur bade papa kaha gaye.."

I moved out of the shop and began searching for them into the mall but I was unable to find them. Tears slipped down my eyes as I was lost.
