Chapter 3

 ---Next Morning---

 'Chotte, wake up!' Anjali called out. But it seemed as if Arnav was in a deep dream and he refused to stir.

 'Chotte!!!' Anjali called again.

'What happened Di? Why are you not letting me sleep?'

 'Chotte, nani is not well. We have to go to Shantivan.'

 'What happened to nani?'

 'Chotte, Mami called me early morning and told that nani fainted due to high blood pressure. Mami also told that nani wish to see us. Now get ready soon. I'll go and wake up Khushi.'

 'Ok Di'

 *****************

'Di, I'll stay back here. Why should I come?' Khushi pleaded again.

 'Now way Khushi, now we are family and our house is your house too and my nani is your nani too. Wont you see her?' Anjali told sternly.

 'Fine Di. But who is this nani?'

 'Oh, I forgot. Nini means mother's mother. Then there is mama, who is my mother's brother, mami his wife, Akash his son and Payal his wife. Now get ready soon. We have to leave quickly.'

 'Ok Di, I'll wash up quickly. But can you select a dress for me by the time I come back?' Khushi asked.

 'Ok.' Anjali told.

 Khushi went to wash herself and Anjali took a baby pink anarkali in the bed and went out of the room.

 ************

' Sasuma, I'll go and see who is ringing the bell. I think our dear Anjali bitiya and Arnav has come.' Mami said this and went to see who is at the door.

 Mami opened the door to see a young girl dressed neatly in a baby pink anarkali.

 'Who are you?' Mami asked.

 'I' mami'' Khushi stammered not knowing what to reply.

 'No answer? And how dare you call me mami. I'm not your mami.' Mami said angrily.

 'Mami, that is my new sister Khushi.' Anjali called from back and came in front of mami.

'Anjali bitiya, you?? It has been a long time since you came here. I know you and your chotte shifted from her, but that doesn't mean that you two will forget us. I and sasuma are angry with you.' Mami replied and showed fake anger on her face.

 'Sorry' Anjali told cutely and held her ears.

 'Ok. This is the last and final warning. For forgiveness you and Arnav bitwa should spend your weekend her. If you agree only I'll let you in.' Mami told.

 'Ok Mami, I don't know about Chotte, but I and Khushi will be her to irritate you on every weekends. Ok?'

 'Ok.. By the way who is this Khushi?'

 'Mami first you let us in. Let us meet nani and we will tell you both the whole story.'

 'Yeah, I forgot. Come in!'
