The day was very tiring for Shivay. Both the meetings involved a good piece of his head and he was very happy that he took wise decision of not signing the first deal. The company losses were easily highlighted. But he was proud, because the first deal is with that company in which his younger brother is an employee. A very normal hard working and earning employee. Rudra also went to Shivay's office along with his boss for the deal, Rudra's boss thought to use Rudra as the bait to sign the deal but... alas... Shivay Singh Oberoi never fixes a deal with losses. Rudra was proud, very proud looking at his brother's attitude while declining the deal. Shivay stepped in Oberoi Mansion after all these and smiled, he was relieved because he will be only Shivay now. 

"Shivay sir Pinky mam is calling you in her room" Rocky informed while passing by.

Shivay gave a nod and smilingly stepped towards his Mumma's room.

"How you always guess it Mom when I come?" he asked entering into his mother's room.

"I am your mother Mr. Shivay Singh Oberoi, this much at least I know... okay leave it, just say how was your day and why didn't you lock the deal with the company in which Rudra works?" so Rudra has shared everything, and Pinky is ready to ask questions to her son for not giving opportunity to her younger son.

"Ohh... so Mr. Rudra Singh Oberoi has complained about it to you?" Shivay sat beside his mother over the bed and questioned, but he knew nothing of that sort has happened.

"No, actually he was proud. He was boasting about you the entire evening and you know he was going on ranting that his Shivay bhaiya is the best and no one has that much courage to stand in front of him and speak looking into his eyes" Pinky completed with a smile as she ruffled Shivay's hair.

"He is mad, well Mom that deal would have caused losses to Oberoi Industries so I opted not to sign that one. Moreover Rudra's boss emphasised over the fact that Rudra is my brother and he works in his company so I better sign it to save Rudra's job, this thing pissed me off. You know what... I want my baby brother to earn a deal on his hard work and not just because he is Shivay Singh Oberoi and Omkara Singh Oberoi's brother, so I chose not to. Well leave it, just tell you why did you call me?" he had faith over his baby Rudra always, and this time too he knows that his brother would rise high.

"No... I actually wanted to say that you did it wrong by announcing the aashirvaad suddenly, see beta... this is marriage and a marriage can't be rushed like this. We all need to plan and prepare ourselves right... so beta please think ten times before announcing the date of the next function" Pinky held Shivay's hand and requested squeezing it.

"Mom, I know this is not the way to arrange someone's marriage but Mom I just want a thrill and fun in this concept so I thought to have an unplanned wedding. But if you insist..." he got cut off by his mother.

"Thrill... fun... everything is fine, but beta how will the guest arrive in short notice and how will we arrange everything?" she has never denied to any of her son's wish and she won't deny over this too but their extended family matters too.

"Okay Mumma, listen... I will ask Prinku to design the marriage cards by tomorrow evening and then we will start sending them to everyone. After that you just call everyone and ask them to come to our house before the week ends, and also ask them to arrange leave from their particular job for at least next two weeks, and I promise that every function and the wedding will be over by this month. And yeah... I don't think so that anyone will deny to come to Shivay's marriage. About the business world, don't worry... I and Om will look after that" Shivay gave the solution but he did not disclosed it yet that when is he going to marry.

"Awww my Prinku, don't disturb or irritate her much" Pinky warned, the daughter of Oberoi family is the most pampered one.

"I won't but yeah my Prinku is a genius in designing beside her mechanical brain" he is proud to have an engineer sister, to be precise a mechanical engineer sister and he never leaves a chance to tease her over this fact.

"See... you will never leave this teasing, now go and get some rest. I am sending the dinner to your room" Pinky got up.

"Love you Mumma" Shivay hugged his mother and dropped a kiss over her forehead and went to his room.

------------------------------ 

Shivay walked towards his room being all exhausted. He wished to see Rudra once before melting over the bed but his body asked him to take a nap before, so listening to the body, he walked to his room.

"Bhaiya" in a jiffy Rudra came out of his room and hugged Shivay tight before Shivay could step into his own room.

"I missed you" Rudra said dropping a kiss over Shivay's shoulder and keeping his head over it and closed his eyes.

"You three in my room?" Shivay asked noticing Om and Prinku there too.

"Was just refreshing memories before we get a get out license" Om said and walked to Shivay.

"Just think bhaiya, after bhabhi will come... we won't be allowed to enter into your room like this. Then we will have to ask for permission before our entry, so we just thought that why not refresh all the moments we have spent in your room since our childhood" Prinku walked close to her three brothers too.

"Don't say so OmRuPri... why would you ask for permission? Yes Anika will be there but she won't be a mugambo, please don't think in that sense" Shivay requested but deep down he also knew that after his marriage everything will change. His time would get divided, probably he will give more importance to his wife but he will try hard, he will definitely try hard to balance everything.

"Okay leave that big bro, listen... today I was so proud of you" as always Rudra diverted the topic to make the moment funny and not at all emotional.

"I know you little kiddo, now... I know that none of you has eaten dinner because you all were waiting for me so just bring the food here and we four will have it from single plate today" Shivay suggested and entered into washroom to get freshened up.

Few minutes passed and the three siblings arranged the food and waited. Shivay came out wearing his loose T-shirt and pant.

"Wooo... let's have dinner" he sat in the middle and Prinku sat on his right while Rudra on his left, Om sat in front. They were sitting over the carpet and Shivay prepared a morsel.

"I will eat first" Rudra grabbed his Shivay bhaiya's hand and ate the morsel up.

"Bhukkad" Prinku taunted but Rudra already had the answer ready "not more than you" he made faces while completing.

"Okay... no fighting" Om balanced the matter by keeping the morsel inside Prinku's mouth first.

"These two will never grow up" Shivay said looking at both the young.

"Never ever ever" Rudra accepted and Prinku nodded thrice as Rudra spoke.

Both the big brothers fed the small ones. They discussed about everything. They discussed how Rudra used to cry if he ever lost in ludo or got cut in middle. They remembered how Prinku was fussy about her lipsticks. They remembered how Shivay bhaiya used to be the hero in school and Om be the calm and most liked boy. They remembered how they used to play hide and seek and Rudra used to sleep in middle of the game and no one ever have found him out because his sleeping places were weird, behind the curtains, under the TV table and in the bathtub. He used to sleep hugging the walls... like who does that? Of course our Rudy. Everyone laughed aloud while the baby brother was embarrased.

"I was a child then, and I was a sleepy head so what can I do?" he tried to form reasons.

"Yeah yeah..." Prinku's sarcastic answer resulted in chasing of Prinku. Rudra behind her and she in front. Elder brothers laughed aloud looking at their kiddos.

------------------------------     

The Sun shined bright with a fresh shine.

"Good Morning Shivay" Om wished chirply.

"Good Morning Om" Shivay wished back in the same tone.

"Let's go together to the office today" Om suggested. Shivay is happy seeing Om trying to get back to everything.

"Go and win her back Om, you both are incomplete without each other" he placed a hand over Om's shoulder and gave it a light squeeze.

"Will definitely try bro" Om assured fixing his hair lash behind.

"Let's go" both of them got inside the car and Om drove it.

------------------------------ 

A different level of excitement worked inside Shivay's brain as soon he kept down his phone. It was Anika over the other side who agreed to the proposal of returning back together after their office gets over. But she asked him that they will walk down the office rather than going into car. He agreed to it and immediately asked Om to drop him near Anika's house after their works get over and Om happily agreed to it. The evening arrived lately for Shivay and he rushed to Anika's office and stood out waiting for her. She came down wearing a blue top cut short kurti and a fitted jeans.

"Let's go would be missus" he extended his hand and she held it firmly.

"How long you have been waiting?" she asked eyeing him, because few drops of sweat was dancing over his forehead.

"Not more, I think around twenty minutes" he answered tightening the hold.

"You should have come inside, okay leave it. Let's go" she started to walk and he smiled.

"I missed you" he said inching closer.

"It's just been a day and half that we have not met and you are already missing me?" she asked in a sarcastic way. But how will she know that he is in hurry to make her his because he cannot wait to call her as his wife.

"Yeah... but you know, you have really become special in our family. Everyone loves you so much, thank you for that Anika Mukherjee" he said with pride in his voice.

"What would have happened to me if I never have agreed to meet you, just think how I would have missed a big chance of getting such a good family after marriage. Well mister, I am really lucky huh to get them" she praised his family, dreamily closing her eyes and then opening it with a shine.

"For at least once can't you just be thankful to me too" he left her hand to show jealousy.

"Okay baba... achcha come, you are the most special part na after all so if I easily confess that then you will start boasting about yourself, so better I never confess" she played with his hand by pulling and pushing it while completing the sentence.

"Do you know how much naughty you are" Shivay inched close and wrapped his hand around her waist.

"You are more as compared to me" she said unwrapping his hand smilingly.

"I can't wait to take you home" he confessed making her blush.

"And I can't wait to eat your head up every morning" she said hitting him playfully.

"Okay listen na... ask your relatives to come by this weekend to your place for our marriage, actually we are marrying in this month only, so..." he became serious.

"Ohh yeah... I was to ask you the dates, listen Shivay... please don't make everything in so much unplanned way, it would cause problems. At least inform me the dates" she asked.

"D, I have asked Prinku to prepare the design of the card from both the family's side by today evening and she has finished designing, an hour back the cards are sent for printing too. In those cards I have invited all the guest for at least three weeks, and in the next three weeks we will be marrying" he again did not disclose the dates.

"At least share the dates with me" she requested again but their attention diverted as Anika heard her name from few meter distance.

"Anika" a girl of Anika's age called her aloud once more as Shivay and Anika looked towards the girl.

"Kirti..." Anika happily smiled and her face changed to the happiest expression as Shivay looked on.

------------------------------ 

Shivay-Anika's wedding is knocking at our door. Let's go shopping, what say dearies?  Heeyaa... so how was the episode? Yes Shivika was less I know because I wanted to focus onto different relationships too. And what about Kirti? Think think. And I must go to grab my dinner, buh-bye.
