Roli got up from the ground and moving near him more she instantly kissed on Sid's cheek freezing him. Until Sid could process what just happened Roli chirped " Thank you Shhi, You are so good "

As her voice reached inside his ears he concluded that the kiss was a thank you kiss but still, it did push him into another zone. He made up a small smile to behave normally and just then Roli starts laughing. With lots of confusion, he asked " What happened? Why are you laughing like this "

" Shhi, your cheeks" She again laughs.

" what?" He asked again rubbing his cheeks and finding the traces of chocolate on his cheek after Roli kisses him, he made an unpleasant face " Eww Rooi why did you do that?"

" I was thanking you, you know"

" Who does like this yarrr?" Siddhant questions with a sigh

" I do " Roli replied sticking out her tongue

" let me clean then will see you " Siddhant warned taking out his kerchief to wipe the chocolate off his cheek, he was about to keep it but Roli held him " what now Rooi?"

" I'll clean " She said taking his kerchief, she stood up beside him holds his cheek with one hand, and with the other very smoothly cleaned it leaving no traces... While she was cleaning Siddhant kept smiling feeling her little fingers cupping his cheek his mind complimented " She's so little and cute "

" it's done " Roli told handing his kerchief back to him.

" Thank you, Rooi... So how about we eat our lunch now " Siddhant says making her sit beside him pointing towards their boxes.

Roll nodded smilingly. Opened her lunch box and shouted " cutlets... I love it" Siddhant smiles in her excitement, Roli peeps into Sid's box " Aloo poori... Shhi this is also my favorite"

" you want it? "

" let's share all " She spoke offering her lunch to him, Siddhant nodes than was going to give his to hers but Roli stops him then opens her mouth asking him to feed her...

Siddhant was shocked on this one, he had never fed anyone in fact he had never interacted with anyone this closely how much he is with Roli... It's the first time he is experiencing something like this, well he do know that how it felt if others feed you as Sneha sometimes does but he had never done this to anyone.... With lots of thinking he slowly made a little morsel of aloo poori then fed her. Roli ate that normally she didn't feel any differences but for Siddhant it was new and pleasant.

" Now my turn... Shhi say aaa " Roli asks then taking a cutlet she calls Siddhant down... Siddhant again went into momentary shock as he wasn't expecting her to feed him... Roli again calls him and this time he gets down. She first holds his chin by one hand then fed with the other and when he took a bite she takes it back keeping the left part in her box she wiped Sid's lips to assure that nothing is there...

For Roli, it was a normal act which her mom does after feeding her but for Siddhant something unusual happened inside him, he felt tickling in his stomach as her fingers wipe his lips... Like this way they finished the whole lunch feeding each other, Roli was enjoying sharing her lunch with her new friend whereas Siddhant was in another world enjoying this new adventure of his unknown feelings ...

" Let's go for hand wash," Roli says standing up

" ok come " Siddhant holds her hand and both went to the nearby tap which was present at the side of their ground... While coming back Siddhant noticed a boy was sitting alone in an isolated place burying his head in between knees.

" Let's go and see him " Roli advised after she noticed why Siddhant stopped and what he was looking for.

Siddhant nodded, both moved towards him, that boy sensed someone near him, he raised his head to look who it is and as soon as he showed his face Siddhant recognized him, he whispered " Ayan "

Ayan looked at Siddhant and Roli with teary eyes, Siddhant was shocked to see him like that while Roli stood confused thinking who he is? why he is here? Siddhant crouched near him then cupping his face wiped his tear and asked " What happened? Why are you crying? " after asking Sid examined his cheek just to see if the slap imprints are still there... It got faded but some were still there, caressing that part he asked " Is it paining? "

Ayan nodded no, fresh tears rolled down his cheeks on feeling the tenderness Siddhant was showing.. Siddhant asked again " then What happened? "

Ayan just kept looking at him without saying anything and his eyes were still leaking out... Siddhant wiped out the tears again asking " you had lunch? "

Ayan noded no, Siddhant softly asks " Why? "

" I don't have " Ayan answered weepingly

" Didn't you bring? " he asked again

Ayan nodes No, he cries more than replied in his trembling voice " Morning..Mom...Mom... Slap... slapped... Didn't give break...fast... Not Lunch....I'm... I'm hungry... So much "

Siddhant's eyes got moist hearing him and the way he told ' I'm hungry ' sent goosebumps inside him and about Roli she started crying seeing Ayan crying...

Siddhant pulled Ayan in a tight hug, consoling him he told " baccha... Stop crying "

" you are a good boy naa and the good boy never cries " Roli spoke in between her cry slightly brushing her hand over Ayan's shoulder...

Siddhant chuckles looking at her he released the hug then told to Ayan " look Ayan... Look at her... She is crying herself and asking you to stop crying"

Ayan noticed Roli and a slight smile came to his lips as he saw Roli crying for him... For the first time, he was seeing someone crying for him, and the way Siddhant was trying to comfort him touched his heart... He felt he can be what he want to be in front of these two.. He looked at Siddhant then inquires "can you give me something to eat... Please "

His begging tone breaks Sid's heart.. He took out the chocolate he had saved for Raunak then offered him. Ayan hurriedly opened it then started to have it in urgency, Sid felt so bad for him while Roli didn't understand the gravity behind it smiled on seeing how Ayan is eating it...

Siddhant remebered the extra money he has left with him and suddenly an idea came to his mind, he asked to Roli " Ayan, get up come with us "

" where? " both Roli and Ayan asked to him.

" No questions just come with me " He said then holding his hand made him get up. Both walked the way Siddhant was going, Roli was holding Sid's hand while Ayan was walking maintaining some distance between looking at Siddhant.. His mind holds a fear about what will happen if Siddhant gets to know he is Ayan Joshi but his heart wants to be near him for the love he is showing... He knew he lied but the caring he was getting made him crave for it more and he decide to not let Sid ever know about his full name....

Siddhant entered inside canteen and made them sit on 4 seated table. " Sit here I'll buy something for you Ayan " he passes a smile to them, as sid's words fell in Ayan ear his eyes shed another tear for the way Siddhant is treating him...

Roli clapped " Shhi you are so good... Buy this much for our new friend " She showed stretching her hands making sid laugh..

Siddhant went to buy food and here Ayan and Roli started to converse in between them... After a while Siddhant came back with a fruit juice and a medium sized Burger for him ... Ayan was so happy on seeing it, Siddhant asks " you like it? "

Ayan nodded too quickly " it's after long time I'm going to have it "

" then have happily and whenever you want to eat say me I'll buy for you, alright " Sid assured ruffling Ayan's hair helping him to take the burger by other...

" Shhi, you know I talked to him, you wanna know what " she excitedly informs him anticipating him to ask what.

" ok so what did you talk "

Roli smiled wide hearing the expected reply.. And then she started to blubber " you know his name is Ayan and he is also in 3rd class like me but in a different room, not mine and you know all our teachers will also be the same but mentors and you know he is new here today only came and also you know I gave him a new name too and told ours too "

Siddhant was dreamily looking at Roli the way she was continuously chanting with all actions she could make and the last info of her giving a name made him curious so he asked " What is that? "

Roli excitedly shouted " Ayuu... And he is ok with it too "

Siddhant knew the reason behind 'uu' in the name but still he asked " why double u? "

Roli slapped her forehead in disappointment " Shhi, you forget so soon..It has to be 4 letters naa that's why "

" that's ok but Ayan itself was 4 letters, no? " he asked raising his eyebrow hiding his giggle

" Shhiiiiiiiiiii, you are so bad " she lets out with little anger to which Sid surrendered immediately, Rooi and Ayuu laughed at how Siddhant apologized holding his ears... The trio had little fun then went back to their classes holding so many memories...

The school was over Siddhant was thinking to meet Roli once more but couldn't as he went to look for his bicycle till then Roli's car went from there....

Unlike yesterday today, Siddhant entered the house with a smile this gave peace to Sneha who was worried about him even though Akshat explained to her that Siddhant is ok now and won't change school but still she was a little worried which got vanished after looking at his smiling face...

" Siddhant, baccha give some time to yourself then only you will be able to adapt this new atmosphere of this new school why took such decision to change the school " Sneha says lovingly cupping his face..

Siddhant was confused about what is she talking , he opened his mouth to speak that's when Akshat returned home and interrupted " It's that Siddhant I told your Maa that you were finding difficulty in adapting to a new school so wanted to change that's it... And Sneha can you bring me a glass of water "

Sneha nodded with a smile then went inside, as she went Siddhant asked " you lied? "

" His description may hurt your Maa so I lied "

" you are so good, thank you " Siddhant mumbles holding his hand tight..

" no need to thank "

Sneha came with water and Siddhant went to change... They had lunch having general talking but Siddhant chose to be silent, his eyes were having a watch on Akshat and his mind was making him think about how different Akshat is from Parikshit...

Akshat has to go to the office again so he was about to leave but the way Siddhant was looking at him made him stop... He requested Sneha " will you please bring the file from the room...blue color file " Sneha went, he went near Siddhant then queries " wanna say something? "

Siddhant nodded then replied " the money you gave today, I used all of it as one of the boy didn't bring his lunch so I bought for him "

" ok but there was no need for you to say it to me that was yours "

" Whenever I take money from Maa I used to give all the details that where I had used it so I thought to tell you too as you are... I mean....Ummm " Siddhant stammered in his words, he wanted to say that cause you are my father but something stops him...

Akshat was pleasantly surprised by the reason told by Sid, he was beaming in happiness, he sobs within as he knew what Siddhant wanted to say because he always stammers this way whenever he needs to address him as father clearing his throat Akshat mumbles " can I hug you? "

Siddhant jerks a little as he wasn't expecting this, still unconsciously he nodes yes... Akshat immediately pulled Sid into a hug not only Akshat but Siddhant too felt pleasant on this closeness... Akshat mumbles in Sid's ear " I told you already son that don't force yourself for anything... Call me Mr. AB itself until your heart wants it... Ok... Don't be in hurry... you thought to inform me about money itself made me feel that now I am a part of your life and this is so precious to me" both were in tears Akshat hugs him a little tighter and whispers " Love you, my son "

In response to it, Siddhant very slowly hums but this felt more peaceful for Akshat after Siddhant cocooned inside his hug.... Sneha who came back taking the file also was in happy tears seeing both of them hugging....
