Anika could react nothing. She dropped her ring and blinked several times and gasped.

Om, ru, gauri, prinku, jhanvi and Gma looked at anika with pity.

“He got engaged” so what?
He is my friend.. i should feel happy she said to herself. Trying hard to put a smile on her face.
Turned slowly to go.

Anika! Shivaay called.

He handed her a glass of water. You said your throat was burning from gol guppe?
“Im fine” she smiled.
And hey, congrats! She said.
He smiled back.

She returned home. Went to her roof and sat quietly and looked at the stars.
Sahil came and sat beside her.

What happened anika didi? Why are you sad?, he asked.

It’s not like that sahil, she said with a low pitched voice.

Nope. There is something. Last time you came to the roof was 2months back when a guy called you an orphan.

You notice many things sahil, she said raising her eyebrows.” But I was very sad back then”. She replied.

And now ? He asked again.

she gave no words. After a long pause.
How lovely the stars are, right sahil?
He turned and saw her tears rolling by the cheeks.

Dont worry when you cant reach for the stars didi, there sure is a shooting star waiting to reach you he said understanding her situation.

Anika turned to him stunned. She could see him growing up. She hugged him. “ I have you sahil. I need no one else. Just you” she said smiling.

Next day, anika wore a beautiful dark green long skirt and a golden crop top with a beautiful fish tail braid. She came into OM. Shivaay saw her and smiled. Even anika tried a smile.

Just when Ananya entered. Anika jerked and went away to gauri’s room.

(At sowmya’s room)
57.. 58.. 59.. 60.
OH MY GOD !! Are you trying to break my backbone. No more pushups. Sowmya yelled.
Hey, you are awesome. Such improvement. Yesterday you did just 20 and fell asleep for 7hours he said giving her an eye.

She gulped “okay okay.. give me my sandwich.. she asked.
What.. what sandwich? No more fast foods. Here.. drink this diet coke. He said handing her one.
Her face frowned. He smiled and showed her a brownie cake on the other hand.
Only 2 pieces. He said. She jumped “okay!!!” Both laughed.

“you made a decision without-u asking-u me shakthi ji” pinky said.

“Ananya is a good girl. Has studied in australia. Managing her dad’s business. She is indeed a good pair for shivaay, shakthi assured her.

She is educated. Well educated. How will she obey me after marriage? Wont she seperate me from shivaay. She said crying.

“ill never let that happen mom, said shivaay from behind. Im always your son before becoming anyone’s husband” he smiled. Pinky hugged him.

Mehendi ceremony began. Om started drawing on gauri’s hands. She felt shy and still smiled like never before. She was so happy. He printed beautifully his name Omkara on her hands. Just when gauri shows his name tatooed on the other arm. His eyes filled with tears of joy.

“Areyyy dont ruin the mehendi.. “ she joked. He giggled.
Ananya too got her hand done with mehendi. When the lady asked what name should she write.. pinky said “shivaay” smiling.
When the lady was about to write.. ananya got a call, she stood up immedietly and said “ill be back in a minute” and goes away.

Ayoo, the auspicious time is getting away, shouted anika as she ran behind ananya.
it’s alright. Should be a company call. You shouldnt avoid business on any occasion shivaay said smiling.
Hey, this mehendi is not coming out om said as he tried to sqeeze it.

Wait ill help you, anika tried hard sqeezing it. It suddenly sqeezed out and shockingly anika had a clumsy ‘S’ written on her hand.

Om peeped to see it and he smiled.
Anika was embarrassed. She ran to clean it. Gma thought “marriages are decided in heaven. I wish god wants what i want” and smiles.

“i wish our son marries someone like ananya” tej sighed.
“dont forget what happened with us tej, you got me married to you for 500 crores. And now ? Are we happy? You care about your business more and not even imagine spending time with me.. she sighed.

Gauri heard it from a distance and thought to do something to clear their mis-understandings.

(Back in her room)Anika.. why cant we have a game ? For all the family members she suggested?

Like what? Asked anika..

I’ll tell you she said. Taking a bottle nearby and dragging anika to the hall.
Let’s play truth or dare !!!!
Gauri called everyone.
Asked them all to sit in a circle. Gauri arranged them. She make pinky to sit opposite to shakthi, tej opp. to jhanvi, Gma opp. to shivaay, ru opp. to sowmya, and she sat opp. to om. Gma saw anika standing near the sofa. Gma whined that she is feeling tired. Om signalled gauri and she made anika sit there.

READY!! She said rotating the bottle.
It halted between ru and sowmya. It was ru’s turn. Sowmya said “dare”

“bend down and touch your feet” he said laughing”

She gave him an irritated look and tried doing it.

Fine fine.. dont worry.. ill help you shrink that tummy soon he winked.

Sowmya and ru made a Hifi as she completed her task.

Now, after again a turn. Bottle faced jhanvi and tej. Om sighed. Gauri smiled. It was jhanvi’s turn. Wait sasu ma… ill give susur ji the task she smiled.

“tej uncle, imagine jhanvi aunty in her early 20s and say a poem she said smiling.

Uh..uh.. i cant do that.. he said stammering.

“Uncle just imagine jhanvi aunty… wearing a jean and her long tops with her favourite colour shades, her hair let loose.. just imagine gauri said.

Tej started imagining it and suddenly

“lovely lovely spring flower,
Emitted fragrance like never ever
But there came something,
Even more breath-taking,
you came walking,
Everyone around you stalking,
I fell for your wonderful soul and no lust,
Before you, the luxuries i own are just dust.
I love you,
and you should reciprocate it too.” he said.

Everyone had their jawdrop. Jhanvi was nearly in tears.. she stood and hugged him.
Everyone smiled. Even om too.
“tej!!!” he called him out. “Thankyou” he said smiling.

Now om hugged gauri.I know it was your plan he smiled.

Gauri winked.
