restlessness
Annika woke up with a jerk...sweating badly...seeing her shivaay also woke up and grew worried for her...
Shivaay: annika..What's wrong? Is everything alright? Are u fine?
Annika (breathing heavily): shivaay...m feeling very restless..I don't know why..I feel like something bad is gonna happen..
Shivaay: calm down annika...u must have seen a bad dream...relax..m with u..
Annika: no shivaay...pls understand...sahil...shivaay pls bring sahil to me..I feel he is in danger.
Shivaay: relax annika...if u say so I will bring sahil today itself...even I was thinking that he should be here with us...I will bring him here and he will continue his studies here...
Annika: yes shivaay...by this way he would be in front of me...Thank u so much for this idea..u r just the best...
She hugged him tightly and he reciprocated with a smile seeing her calmed down...
After sometime....sahil came and directly ran towards annika and hugged her...
Sahil: annika didi..see I m back..how r u?? Why didn't u come to meet me?
Annika (with tears): m sorry sahil...I was..
Sahil: its ok didi...by the way why were u so tensed about me? And where is ur new bade bhaiya? I want to meet him..
Annika: relax sahil...how come u know all this???
Sahil: all thanks to sso...u don't tell me anything but he does..
Annika: really...and where is ur sso?
Shivaay: I m right here jaan...tell me
Annika: u told him everything?
Shivaay: of course...who else will tell? I m only that much smart..
Annika: smart my foot...he is a child...there's no need of explaining him anything...
Shivaay: but he has that right
Annika: shivaay...
Sahil: shut up u both...bacche ki jaan loge kya..annika di..m not a kid anymore...and sso...stop fighting with my didi..
Shivaay: I didn't say anything...
Sahil: whatever...
Annika knelt down to his level and hugged him..
Annika: sahil pls don't leave me..u stay here with me...continue ur studies here...pls...
Sahil: ok didi...ur wish is my command...I will stay here..I won't go...
Three of them smiled...
Sahil got busy with om rudra..and bhavya and gauri went out to see gauri's friend who had an accident...they had already informed annika...
Annika remembered something and rushed...shivaay remembered something and rushed...
On the way both of them collided and annika was about to fall when he caught her...
Both of them smiled (o jaana playing in the background)
Shivaay: be careful baby
Annika: no need...u r there na..
Shivaay smiled and then remembered something...annika also remembered something..
Did u had ur medicines??
Both of them asked in unison..
Yes I had...again in unison...and bursted out laughing...
Shivaay: good..that u had them
Annika: same goes for u...
Shivaay: annika...here is the admission form for sahil...he will be studying in my school...so sign it..we can go for the interview then..
Annika: ok...
She signed it and both went for the interview...
Principal welcomed both of them
Principal: good to see u mr.shivaay... Its a pleasure...
Shivaay: same here...we r here..
Principal: I know for ur brother's admission right??
Shivaay: right..she is my wife...annika..
Principal didn't pay any attention...
Principal: ok mr.shivaay...there is an interview round for parents and then u can have a word with the director...as we r already aware that how bright u r...I wud like to interview mrs.oberoi...if u don't mind...
Shivaay: not at all...u can continue...and he went outside...
There was a silence in the cabin..principal was scanning annika from top to bottom...
Principal: u look like hindi medium or u r one of them
Annika: excuse me
Principal: I knew it...u r standardless..class less...I can make out from looking at people like u...u must not be knowing a word of English..and here u r...
Annika (with rage): shut up..how dare u?? U know who I m??
Principal: really...which university r u from?? Mr.oberoi is harvard return and u..
Annika stood up
Annika: excuse me...who r u to judge me? I m the best...I know it...I don't need a certificate for proving it by using a language that is not ours...and how dare u discriminate? u know right..discrimination is a criminal offence...and for ur information..we live in India...our mother tongue is hindi...if u have forgotten...let me remind u...we r Hindustan first and then India..got it ms..whatever...u know what wait...I will show u...
She said this all in fluent English and the principal was stunned..
Annika rushed to the director's cabin...
The principal also entered...
Shivaay saw them and went in as well..
Shivaay: what happened?
Annika: wait and watch..
All the faculty members came..
Director: yes mrs.oberoi...all of them r here...now tell..What's the matter...
Annika: actually I wanted to ask that if teachers have the right to interview parents then parents shud also be given a chance to do the same...
Director: u r right...pls go ahead
Annika: I want to ask a simple question to the head of the institution...Please chant the gayatri mantra...
Principal: what???
Annika: why?? U r the principal and u don't know it? How shameful...
Director: what is this?
Principal: sir because hindi is not my language...
Annika: exactly...like the way...hindi isn't ur language...for many people..English is not their language...then who the hell r u to judge?? They might not know the language but still r the master of their work...according to the law...hindi is compulsory in all the schools here right? Then why do u hesitate in giving it its importance...m sorry sir but I don't want my brother to be a part of this school...and u Ms . principal...we don't keep our doors close...if u want to disrespect our mother tongue...kindly get lost...
She turned around to go only to be stopped by the director..
Director: we r sorry Mrs. Oberoi.every language has its own importance and we understand..I assure u this won't happen again.
Sahil is a brilliant child...pls..we want him..
Annika: good that u understood..Otherwise I wud have called the media and sue u all but I won't..I don't misuse my power and for the matter of fact...1000 of lives r depending on u for a bright future...I can't punish them...make sure it doesn't happens again...(eyeing the principal while she bowed her head down in shame)
Director: sure...
Shivaay all this while...was stunned rather shocked to see her rage...he quietly went out with her..
As soon as they came out..he hugged her...she reciprocated understanding his confusion
Shivaay: how did u do that?
Annika: all thanks to bhai..he made me realise that there is no age boundaries for learning something which can make us better...so I learnt this language
Shivaay: I m so proud of u mrs.oberoi...
Annika: thanku...mr.oberoi
Shivaay: mai tumse bahot prem karta hoon...
Annika: whattt???
Shivaay: arre...now only u gave such a long lecture on hindi na thats why...
Annika (hits him playfully): shut up and lets go...we need to shop for sahil...
Shivaay: as u wish meri jaan..
They went together...and shopped for sahil for his new school...
Sahil got excited seeing all new things for him. Both of them smiled at their little bundle of joy.
Sahil: but didi u didn't tell me where is ur bade bhaiya?
Annika: he has gone to pune for a meeting...he will be back tomorrow..
Sahil: ok..I will meet him then
The day ended with both of them cuddling to each other and sleeping peacefully..
