The next day Aniriya reach Oberoi Mansion.

Everyone was present in the hall. Gauri and Soumya reached first. But Anika was no where to be seen.

Dadi: Gauri puttar Anika kidhar hai ?

Gauri and Soumya look each other.

Jhanvi: kya Hua ?

Pinky: Anika alrights hai na ?

Gauri: ji Auntyjee Anika Didi bilkul thik hai aur aai bhi hai.

Dadi: toh hai kahan ?

"Main yahan hiin dadi" Anika told making puppy eyes and sweet tone. Although her face was downward.

Dadi: tu peeche kyun khadi hai ? Saamne aa na

Anika comes out from behind Gauri and Soumya.

Anika: I am sorry Dadi

Dadi: hayo rabba kyun puttar ?

Anika : voh kal main medicine ke vaje se itna kuch bol gayi na. Dekha bhi nai koun bada hai koun chota.

She sobs. She then goes to Pinky.

Anika: sorry Pinky aunty voh maine kal bohot bure se baat ki na aapse ?
Pata nai voh medicine itna heavy dose hai ki jab bhi leti hoon toh ulat pulat hi bolti hoon. Pinky promise maine kuch jaan bujh kar nai Kiya.

She says with puppy eyes in which tears were flowing. Seeing her puppy face and sob, everyone busted into laughter.

Anika (puppy eyes): aap has kyun rahe ho ?

Jhanvi comes and wipes her tears.

Jhanvi: voh isliye beta kyunki tumhari harkat hi baccho vali hai. Khud maa ban ne vali ho aur dekho kaise puppy eyes banakar baat kar rahi ho ?

Anika: kya puppy eyes ? Main kya puppy hoon ?

Again they all laugh.

Shakti comes to her and cups her cheek from one side.

Shakti: beta puppy eyes means jaise bacche banate hain kisi galti se maafi mangne ko ?

Tej comes and cups her another side cheek.

Tej: vaise cute baccho ki jaisi dikh rahi thi. No doubt tumhara baccha cute hoga.

Anika smiles slightly.

Pinky goes to her and holds her hand.

Pinky: Anika tune jo kuch bhi bola na voh tere hearts ki baat thi. Isliye iss
Condition main nikal gayi. Accha Hua ab tera man halka hoga.

She kisses her forehead and blesses her.

Dadi goes to her.

Dadi: pregnancy main na aise hota hai. Usse moodswings bolte hain. Isliye mitti pa uss baat pai.

Anika: thik hai phir him chalte hai kaam karne.

Dadi: haan par aaram se okay.

She calls out Sheetal Aarti Ramesh.

Dadi: tum teeno humesha uske paas rehena. Voh kisi kaam keliye upar neeche na ho. Big jo bolegi usse lake dena.

They nod and do the thing that they told.

Three faces were watching them all and smiling.  But they couldn't go to them. They were ShivOmRu.

AT THE AFTERNOON

Gauri comes from the terrace.

Gauri: Didi Soumya chalo harharaike khana kha lete hain. Phir Didi ko medicine bhi lena hoga na.

Anika  ( excitedly): haan haan chalo.

Soumya: Didi aaramse okay.

Anika(again puppy face): okay

They open their lunch boxes.

Gauri serves for all.

Anika takes the place and twists her nose and keeps it back.

Gauri: ka hua Didi ?

Anika(puppy face): mujhe na yeh paneer nahi khani...

Gauri: hain aap AAJ hi toh isse khane ki zid kar rahi thi na ?

Soumya: you kya khana hai aapko ?

Anika: mujhe Chole bhatoore aur aachar chahiye.

RiYa: kya???????

Anika: haan

Gauri: par abhi kahan se ayenge voh ?

Anika: par muje chahiye chahiye chaiye..

(Uff yeh pregnancy ke nakhre😓😓😓)

Gauri ( silently to Soumya): yes Didi garbhbati kya Hui, yeh toh khood bacchi ban rahi hai. Oo ka kehete hain moo...mood.

Soumya: moodswings didi.

Gauri: haan haan vahi.

Gauri: accha Anika Didi aap ko man nai hai na ? Koi baat nai. Abhi toh hum voh bana sakte hai nahi na. Toh aap wait kijiye. Jab acche se bhook lagegi  na tab khana kha lene. Raat ko hum pakka chole bhature bana lenge.

Anika (sadly): okay. Par raat ko bana lene haan ?

RiYa: haan haan Pinky promise.

AFTER HALF AN HOUR

Sheetal came to them with a plate of Chole bhatoore and aachar.

Anika gets glad and starts jumping and clapping. (Cute na..😊😊)

Soumya holds her.

Soumya: Didi dekh ke.

Gauri: Sheetal ee kisne bheja ?

Sheetal: voh maine Anika mam ki baat suni thi na toh chef se kehkar bana liya. Aakhir main bhi toh maa hoon na.

Anika could not wait more and snatches the plate and starts eating.

Curry was on her face.

Gauri and Soumya were wiping them and were too happy to see her happy.

But behind the pillars someone was watching and smiling. He was Shivaay. He was seeing his wife's antics and smiling.

Sheetal comes to him.

Sheetal: sir aapne jaisa kaha maine vaise hi kiya.

Shivaay: good.

Shivaay's eyes were moist. He went to his room while wiping the tears.

"Rone ka man hai toh ro le Shivaay" said Omkara.

Shivaay runs and hugs him.

Shivaay: dekh Om meri ek galti ki vaje se AAJ itna bada happiness mujh se door hogaya.  Main baap ban ne wala hoon aur mujhe Anika ka khyal chup chup ke rakh na pad raha hai.

Rudra: bhaiya bhabhi ko pasand aya kya ?

Shivaay nods in positive.

Omkara: so baat puchun ?

Shivaay: puch ?

Omkara: tujhe bhabhi ki fikar hai ya sirf apne bacche ki ? Matlab agar voh pregnant na hoti toh kya tu unka khyal rakhta ?

Shivaay: Om jab voh mujhe chod ke gayi thi na toh main usse bohot pyaar karta tha aur AAJ bhi karta hoon. Jab voh wapas ayi toh maine thaan liya ki apni Anika ko apne se door kabhi nai jane doongi. Uski pregnancy ka pata mujhe abhi chala. Par usse fir se paas lane ki zid usse pehle ki hai. Isliye voh agar pregnant hoti bhi nai toh main usse apna kar hi dum leta.

Rudra: galti toh hum dono ne bhi ki hai bhaiya. Maine aur O ne chulbul bhabhi aur Soumya ko apne zindegi se bahar phek kar.

Omkara: haan Rudra kitne gadhe the na hum ? Bilkul duffur.

Shivaay: Lekin uss galti ko bhi hum hi sudharenge. I promise.

Omkara: haan Shivaay jitna bura hume Karna tha humne kiya. Ab sahi karne ka waqt hai.

Rudra: aur hum voh sahi karne rahenge.

Shivaay Rudra and Omkara join each other's hand.

ShivOmRu: yes WE WILL WIN THEM BACK AGAIN. Yeh vada hai humara.......
