At the Boarding School Near Mumbai:
She asked the peon for directions, to the ground. Holding on firmly to the little boy's hands she thanked the peon and followed the directions. As soon as she reached the ground she scanned the crowds for his face. The little boy too ran his kanji eyes all about the place in a manner closely similar to his mother.
"Anika Didi!" A voice came from the right. The duo looked in the direction. A geeky teenager dressed pitch perfect in the uniform, a few inches shorter than Anika, his hair slightly spiked and that ever sweet smile on his face. He walked up to her and immediately hugged her.
"Saahil!"
He broke the hug smiling, adjusting his rectangular black spectacles he looked excitedly at the little boy whose green eyes shown with happiness. At once the little boy ran and held on to Saahil's legs. Saahil bent down and picked the boy in his arms.
"Bhaiya!"
Saahil-"Shaitaan!"
Anika smiled at the duo.
They walked down the market streets, close to Saahil's Boarding School.
The little boy was still in Saahil's arms playing with him.
Anika- "Saahil Tera paer to theek hain naa!"
Saahil-"Offo Anika didi, paanch saal ho gaye operation ko, sab theek hain!" he flashed his charming smile to his sister.
Anika- "Aur boards ki tayaari kaoso chal rahi hai!"
Saahil-"Don't worry Anika Didi, sab solid hai has wo kal mera USS Rupali se jhagada ho gaya, meri computer class waai partner.
Anika hits him slightly on his head-"Padai pe dhyaan de, inn paagal pan ke chochlon mein kyun pada hai!" She teased him, she pretty well knew, that he only made up those stupid stories.
Saahil grinned cheekily. He was a changed boy, tall handsome teenager, with a witty head and extremely cheeky sense of humor.
"Ab aap ka ho gaya toh kya main aur Anshu, kuch man to man talks kar sakta hain!"
Anika rolled her eyes.
Saahil, put the barely six year old down on his feet and non-stop yanked with the boy.
Anika watched the cute scene.
Thanks To Rudra that Saahil was now more like him..! Cutely Stupid.!
Saahil-"Waise Shivi kaisi hai?
Anika-"Theek hain!" she smiled at the mention of her little girl.
Outside Oberoi Mansion:
He sat in Car tapping the steering wheel,looking towards the entrance of the mansion. As if on cue she appeared.
Dressed in jeans, and a smart pinky top, her sling on the side, matching pink sports shoes, her hair neatly pulled in a high pony, a pair of classy goggles on her head. She walked out in a gait similar to her dad's. She peeked in through the window of the front passenger seat of the Mercedes.
Shivaay looked into her chocolate brown eyes, exactly like her mother's-"Kahan thii , I have been waiting, bata ke aai...
He was cut off by his daughter-"Offo papa, haan bata diya unhe, aur ParDaadi ko bhi aur Chaachi ko bhi.! Aur ye dehkiye Choti Maa ne sandwiches diye...! She said excitedly showing him the paper bag in hand.
She hated eating outside food and hence her Choti Maa had packed a few sandwiches for her. Shivaay smiled, that lady might not be straight in dealings with him, but he had to admit she pampered the kids like her own.
Shivaay-Okay climb on...
Shivanshi-"Arey bua ko toh aane do, after all we are going for her..!"
Shivaay- "Haan, ab Prinku kahan hai..!"
Prinku-"Main aa gayi chale...!
Shivaay- "Khana reh gayi thii..you know..
Shivanshi getting on the back seat-" You know I m very particular about time, ab tak Maine 5 deals karli hoti!" She mimics her dad, before he could complete his sentence, and runs her hand over her hair trying hard to copy his exact style but failing as usual.
Shivaay rolls is eyes and looks at her from the corner of his eyes and she pretends as though she said nothing. "Chale Papa...we are running late" she said innocently.
Prinku giggles as she gets on the front seat.
Under his breath-"DrameBaaz!"
