The same day Anika was working. She felt thirsty but could find no one near by her so she went to the kitchen.

Near the door she heard two people talking.

P1: arey ek baat bolun ? Chahe jo ho jaye jab se Anika mam Gauri mam aur Soumya mam iss ghar se gaye hain na iss ghar ki toh jaise raunak hi chali gayi thi.

P2: haan yaar pata nai voh log kyun gaye ? Lekin saath main Shivaay sir Omkara sir aur Rudra sir ka dil bhi saath or gaye the. Suna hai ki kuch family problem thi. Par unki aisa nai Karna chaiye tha.

P1: haan dekha nai ? Voh teeno 3 mahino tak kitchen main aye tak nahi  the ? Aur kal Anika mam ki ek farmaish par Chole bhatoore bana liye voh bhi refine oil se olive oil nai.

P2: kuch bhi bol Sheetal Shivaay sir pyaar bohot karte hain Anika mam se aur Om sir Gauri mam se aur Rudra sir Soumya mam se.

Anika hears these all and realises that yesterday the food was made by ShivOmRu. She went inside. The maids were shocked seeing her.

Anika: Sheetal Meera kal voh khana Shivaay Om and Rudra ne banaya tha ?

Sheetal: ji ji voh main.....

Anika: ji ji voh main kya ? Sach bolo

Sheetal: ji mam unhone banaya aur bola ki aap ko jhoot bolke de doon. Please aap sir se kuch mat kehena varna humari naukri jayegi na please.

Anika: it's okay main nai bolungi.

She sees Shivaay behind the door and gets an idea and smiles.

She says a bit loudly.

Anika: vaise Sheetal aaj na mujhe gajar ka halwa khana hai. Aur haan no banayega usse hi kehena ki mere paas laye. Kisi aur ke haathon na bheje.

Sheetal: ji madam

Shivaay smiles hearing that from her and immediately gets what she wants.

He prepares it and goes to Anika.

Shivaay: urhh umm!!!!

Anika: ab le hi aye hain toh baith jaiye ghar ap ka hi hai.

Shivaay sits and gives her the bowl with the halwa.

Anika gets excited and eats it like a child. Shivaay gets too happy watching this and smiles.

Anika finished the halwa within minutes.

Shivaay: sooooooo

Anika: so ?

Shivaay: accha laga ?

Anika: hmm

Shivaay: aurrrrrr

Anika: aur ?

Shivaay: kal ka ?

Anika: hmm thik thak. Aur jyada mirchi honi chahiye thi....

Shivaay: okay next time dhyan rakhoonga...

Anika: toh aap next time bhi banayenge ?

Shivaay: voh voh actually voh...

Anika smiles watching him but composes herself.

Anika: okay so I have to talk with you about something.

Shivaay thought it's about them.

Shivaay: what ? Is that about...

Anika: Om Gauri Soumya and Rudra.

Shivaay gets sad but composes himself.

Shivaay: what ?

Anika: I think unhe apne relationship ko ek chance dena chahiye.  Unhe iss ristey ko sambhalna chaiye.

Shivaay: so what you want ?

Anika: I think we should do something so that they  would come closer. They both need each other. Actually they love each other but  just not opened about it. I think they have chances . So we must be their stairs  to the chances.

Shivaay: okay we will get a plan and make it to work.

They both sit silent for a while.

Shivaay: tumne unke baare main toh bol diya. Par...

Anika: par kya ?

Shivaay: par humare riste ka kya ?

Anika : uska kuch nai ho sakta.

Shivaay: I know tum gussa ho par we can try it out.

Anika: haan hoon main gussa par usse bhi badi baat yeh hai ki unke paas waqt hai no mere paas nahi hai. Mere paas sirf mere delivery tak ka waqt hai.

Shivaay: hum superspecialist se baat karenge Anika.

Anika: main koi jhooti umeed nai chahati Shivaay.

Shivaay: par...

Anika: par kuch nai Shivaay.  Agar hum paas ake phir door gaye toh aapki pareshani aur badhegi isliye hum door rahe hi accha hai Shivaay . Isliye aap apni zindegi main age badhiye. Ek aur baat delivery ke baad main aapko yeh baccha dene ke liye tayiyaar hoon iss umeed ke saath ki aap acche se uska khyal rakhenge aur usse ek accha insaan baneyenge. Lekin yeh bhi chahati hoon ki usse maa ka pyar bhi mile. Is liye apne layak aur uss bacche ke layak ek acchi biwi aur maa dhoond lena. Ek aisi ladki jo har mayino Main Oberoi khandan ke kaabil ho. Jiske naam khoon khandaan par kabhi sawal na uthe. Main nahi chahati ki Gauri aur Soumya par kisi tarah ka bojh rahe. Baaki aapki marzi. Par haan akele mat rehena. Kyunki voh kya hota hai meri 2rs kismat ne mujhe sikha di hai.....

Shivaay: Anika!!!!

Anika: yehi hai mere zindegi ka sach Shivaay aur maine usse man liya hai.

She wipes the flowing tears from her eyes.

Shivaay's eyes were also watery.

Anika: ab aap jayiye. Kahi main apni hi baaton main kamzor na pad jaaoon.

Shivaay silently gets up while Anika continues her work like a stone.

Shivaay  (POV): main tumhe apna bana ke rahoonga Anika. Mere liye tumhare liye aur humare hone wale bacche keliye. Tumhe apni zindegi se pyaar Karna padega. Yeh Shivaay Singh Oberoi  ka vada hai. Tumse apne bacche se aur bhagwan se. Agar maut bhi ayi toh hum dono ko ek saath leke jaayegi. Aur agar jeeyenge toh saath apni puri family ke saath Anika. I promise Anika I promise....
