—————————AT S.A.M.S. RESTAURANT , NEAR SHIVAAY’S CABIN, SHILLONG, MEGHALAYA

While reaching Shivaay’s heart was for some reason beating fast…infact very fast…….he opened his Cabin door in one go……..
Om Ru turned towards Shivaay and all the three stood there in shock , still, surprise and with heavy hearts…….
Shivaay ‘’Om…Rudra……’’he stood still with teary eyes while tears scared to come out of his eyes……
Rudra ran towards Shivaay and hugged Shivaay …Shivaay reciprocated the hug tightly…he brushed his little brothers face with lots of love…both their eyes were running with tears ……..he again hugged him tight and kissed his forehead….
While ShivRu hugged , Om stepped back and turned his face away and went to the window…….
Shivaay looked at Anika with Om’s act and Rudra looked at Shivaay………
Rudra walked towards Om and placed his hand on his shoulder ……
Rudra ‘’O we waited for this moment for an year and when this monet came you turned your face away…why O …why are you doing this?’’
Om ‘’Rudra …I came to see Shivaay and I saw him …now we should leave ……’’

—————————SOMETIME BEFORE—————————————-
——————–PRESENT DAY, SHILLONG, MEGHALAYA ………A PLACE FAR FROM SHIVAAY’S HOUSE
Shivaay started towards airport morning after having breakfast …He did not divulge any information before leaving which made Anika puzzled…..unable to bear the suspense and surprise, she kept on calling Shivaay…Shivaay was driving , so he kept on disconnecting the calls…by then Anika was Pissed off……
She sent a message which read as ‘’Shivaay, if you disconnect the call one more time, then it will be the last time I will call you in your life’’
Shivaay saw the message and irritatingly parked the car at a side and called her back
Anika ‘’yes Shivaay’’
Shivaay ‘’what’s this childishness…you know I am driving, then how will I pick the call?’’
Anika ‘’where are you going? Why didn’t you tell me before leaving?’’
Shivaay ‘’come on Anika don’t act as typical wife…you know I have lot of work so going on some work ‘’ he lied
Anika ‘’Shivaay don’t try to lie…mein yuuu yuuu pakad sakthi hoon’’
Shivaay ‘’Ohh God …what do you want? say it straight’’
Anika ‘’where is my surprise?’’
Shivaay ‘’what surprise?’’ he smiled
Anika ‘’don’t smile and tell me where is my surprise ..yesterday night you promised me that you will make me meet someone’’
Shivaay ‘’wait …wait a minute…how do you know I was smiling?’’
Anika ‘’I know it…I know what you do when…everything…now don’t change the topic’’
Shivaay ‘’seriously Anika…you called me to pester about this ?’’
Anika ‘’ohh so now I am pestering you…I asked you to fulfil your promise and you are saying me that I am pestering you…you have changed Shivaay,..now you don’t like me anymore…I can understand’’
Shivaay ‘’Anika…anika …wait…wait a minute…where are you taking the entire topic…I can’t understand why can’t you ladies talk to the point and end it? ‘’
Anika ‘’ohh hello…why can’t you men answer the question directly and end it ‘’
Shivaay ‘’okk fine meri Jhansi ki rani, meri superwoman …I am going to bring that someone so that you can meet ..happy now?’’
Anika ‘’very happy’’ she smiled
Shivaay ‘’I wish I can see you smiling all the day’’
Anika ‘’stop it Shivaay’’ she blushed
Shivaay ‘’Anika you are blushing??’’
Anika ‘’how do you know I was smiling and blushing?’’
Shivaay ‘’I know it…I know what you do when…everything…as you know about me’’
Anika ‘’Fine go quick and get my surprise …you always waste time in doing things’’
Shivaay ‘’what…what the wuck?’’
By then Anika disconnected the call……….Shivaay smiled at his wife’s antics to get the truth and he patted himself that he did not reveal what and whom was she going to meet…
Just when he was about to sit back and drive his mobile ringed back…and it was Anika
Shivaay ‘’now what Anika?’’
Anika ‘’Shivaay I had one more question?’’
Shivaay ‘’Mahi was right ..you are truly question kumari’’ he murmered
Anika ‘’what were you murmering’’
Shivaay ‘’nothing…you were having some question’’
Anika ‘’whom am I going to meet? ‘’
Shivaay ‘’Anika tum mere surprise ko surprise rehne nahi dogi kya…kitna sawaal karthi ho?’’
Anika ‘’please na Shivaay tell me …I cannot wait to know’’
Shivaay ‘’Anika stop being stubborn…if I planned a surprise then you would definitely be happy right’’
Anika ‘’woh tho hain’’
Shivaay ‘’that’s it…if you still disturb me …I cannot get your surprise home….please darling…let me go quickly and come back to see your happy face…please’’
Anika ‘’okay………ummaaaaaahh’’
Shivaay ‘’ýou kissed me?’’
Anika ‘’yes’’
Shivaay ‘’I am coming back home..we will see the surprise later’’
Anika ‘’bye Shivaay …I am waiting for my surprise’’
She ended the call…….Shivaay smiled again and sat back in the car and started driving towards Airport…..

—————in shilling airport Cargo department….

Om went to the airport authorities and introduced himself as OMKARA SINGH OBEROI…he let them know who he was…the airport officials asked him what help they can do…he explained the situation to take the scooty from them ….The cargo flight just arrived then……..
Seeing the stature and position Om was holding and also Since Om had made them talk to CIVIL AVIATION MINISTRY they completed the formalities in a very short time……
Airport Authority Officer (AAO) ‘’sir please sign here to acknowledge that you have received the delivery’’
Om took the pen and thought for a while……he called Gauri to sign the papers
Gauri was surprised…….but she then did not question and signed the papers
The scooty was with Om now…..OmRu SauRi were very happy………..
Om spoke to the concerned authorities at Cargo department
Om ‘’thank you so much for your help till now…but I need one more help from you…’’
‘’yes sir, please let me know’’
Om ‘’if someone comes to claim this scooty then just let them know that delivery boys have come and took the bike to deliver at the same address as it is in the paper’’
AAO ‘’SURE SIR….but may I ask you why are you asking us to lie?’’
Om ‘’it’s important…think that it is a surprise to the owners of this bike from us’’
AAO Smiled and said ‘’I understand…don’t worry sir , assume your work is done’’
Om , Rudra , Gauri and Saumya thanked them …….
Rudra ‘’bhayya why did you not sign the papers? Why did you ask Bhabhi to sign them’’
Saumya ‘’Duffer if Shivaay bhayya by any chance sees the sign he can easily say it is bade baal wala bhayya’s sign and then our surprise will no more be a surprise’’
Rudra ‘’ohh ya..i didn’t think about this’’
OmYa ‘’you can never think about something intelligent’’
Gauri ‘’don’t taunt my devar…he is the most cutest one in the entire world’’ she spoke instantly…….
Om looked at her in surprise ….for the first time he smiled at Gauri’s words as she was also saying the same as his Anika Bhabhi used to say…however his smile didn’t last for long and he regained his angry wala avtar by looking at Gauri…..
Later they called a mini van to hire……..
They loaded the CHAMPA carefully into the van , wrapped it neatly with a scooty cover and a ribbon ‘’
They followed the van in a car towards S.A.M.S restaurant…………..

———–SHIVAAY’S HOUSE SHULLONG , MEGHALAYA
Sahil ‘’didi..please I don’t want to go to school today…Shivaay jiju has planned a surprise for you na even I want to see it’’
Anika ‘’Sahil..you can see it after your school….’’
Sahil ‘’didi please na’’
Anika ‘’Sahil enough don’t act stubborn…Mahi chachu will drop you at school’’
Mahi ‘’Anika …why are scolding my little friend…it’s okay if he doesn’t go to school for one day…he is very intelligent’’
Mahi and Sahil both together said ‘’C…H…A…T…U…R’’ VEDI
Anika ‘’Mahi but’’
Mahi ‘’Anika…come we all will together go to S.A.M.S. today’’
All the three left to the restaurant…………..

—————SHILLONG AIRPORT , MEGHALAYA, CARGO DEPARTMENT
Shivaay reached the airport and went to take the delivery of Anika’s Champa…….
He went to the concerned department and asked for the delivery…..
AAO ‘’Sir, your scooty has been taken by some delivery boys’’
Shivaay ‘’what? ‘’
AAO ‘’Yes sir…see here are the papers’’
Shivaay ‘’but how could you send it with anyone’’’
AAO ‘’Sir they gave all the details of where to be delivered who ordered and everything else related to the scooty and then, only after lots of checks we sent with them’’
Shivaay ‘’this is not acceptable…do you know what that scooty means to me…if that scooty is lost or damaged or even a small scratch is found then you will face the wrath of me’’ he screamed
AAO ‘’Excuse me sir…you cannot speak like that..so please calm down…I am sure it is on the way to S.A.M.S restaurant’’
Shivaay left from there hurriedly and tensed and was all the way driving fast towards S.A.M.S Restaurant…..he thought that had Anika not delayed with her stupid calls then everything would have been perfect…his thoughts were making him worried farthermore……..
——————–AT THE S.A.M.S Restaurant

Anika, Mahi, sahil reached the restaurant and were supervising everything…Mahi left to his room while Anika was in her cabin……..Sahil was in restaurant’s kitchen eating the tasty food now and then and playing with the chefs…..it was Sahil’s best timepass…Shivaay had always maintained a good relation with staff unlike the old Shivaay Singh Oberoi……..probably the sangath ka asar of Anika and Mahi made him change like that……….
OmRu SauRi reached the S.A.M.S. restaurant……….the van with CHAMPA also reached there……
They all looked at the restaurant…it was very beautiful…a nice garden with play area for kids , the tables beautifully set, greenery, springs and pools , almost most of the tables outside were occupied.. …..it was looking lively from outside….everyone was excited to step in……
Om went till Driver and asked him to wait there until he comes……..
Anika went to the window while reading some documents and for a while to take a break looked outside the window which was facing the entrance side of Restaurant…………she was surprised and shocked to see who all were standing…….tears flew from her eyes and she dropped the papers and quickly ran outside …….
Mahi was just coming out to meet Anika and saw her running madly………he was surprised and ran behind her taking her name….with all this hullaboo Sahil too came out of kitchen ……….
Anika stood before Om, Rudra, Saumya and Gauri………..
All the four stood still seeing their Bhabhi…….tears took their time to came out and once they started they did not end………time took a pause for a while………..Mahi lifted Sahil in his arms and quickly came out and he too stood still, so was the case with Sahil………..
Anika came out of her shock and ran and hugged OmRu first………OmRu reciprocated her hug tightly…Anika was crying loudly…very loudly………..Om silently cried hugging her and Rudy was taking taking Anika’s name continuously………..
Sahil went near Saumya and hugged her …while Mahi folded hands to greet Gauri…Gauri too reciprocated his greetings by folding her hands…….
Everyone sitting at the restaurant were looking at them shocked………..
After sometime Rudra spoke ‘’bhabhi why did you leave us…why didn’t you try to contact us? Were we not important for you? Did you forget us all in this one year? How could you punish us so much without any fault of us ? Bhabhi ..answer me Bhabhi? Answer me’’ he cried
Anika ‘’bas Rudra…bas’’ she wiped his tears and kissed his forehead……..’’I missed you my partner..i missed you all a lot….you thought we punished you but we were actually bearing the punishment of staying away from you…your bhayya …your Shivaay bhayya had never spent a single day without thinking about all of you..’’ she touched Om’s cheeks and patted lightly on it……they hugged again ……
Om ‘’where is Shivaay… Anika Bhabhi?’’
Anika ‘’he went somewhere ..he planned a surprise for me and he went to bring that surprise…but…but little did he know he would be surprised today…’’ she spoke amidst of her hiccups…….
Mahi quickly went inside restaurant and brought water for Anika and rest four……he handed over the glass to everyone and stood back…….
Anika drank the water and looked at him……..Mahi stood at a distance…..she called Mahi……..Mahi came near her……..
Anika ‘’Mahi wouldn’t you like to hug your younger brothers? Why are you standing so far?’’
Mahi ‘’Anika…how can i? after whatever has happened because of me I am unable to face them’’
Om came forward and hugged him…….so did Rudra……..Mahi was teary eyed………he hugged them tightly……….
Om ‘’Bhai it wasn’t your fault…you didn’t do anything and even if you did something it was not done deliberately and from past one year the way you stood up with them had increased our respect for you….i agree it will take time for us to gel the same way as we are with Shivaay but trust me we have no hatred for you……..you are also our brother….’’
Rudra ‘’I am rudra…I mean pehelwaan bhai …you used to call me by that name right?’’
Mahi ‘’I am sorry rudra…I was ‘’
Rudra ‘’don’t worry…I am happy atleast some one calls me pehelwaan’’
The three hugged once again………..Anika was happy……..
She went near Soumya and hugged her ‘’Thank you so much ……for everything……I don’t know but somewhere I feel because of you we met …I will not ask you any details because I want to capture this moment forever in my heart’’
Saumya too hugged Anika ………
Anika then looked at Gauri …she went near her and said ‘’welcome Gauri into our family……I am Anika ….and should I call you chulbul or Gauri’’ saying this she hugged her and Gauri cried ‘’didi’’ loudly while hugging her…Anika felt an instant connection with her and later calmed her……
OmRu were till then doing masti with Sahil but after Om listened to the name Chulbul anger came across his face which didn’t go unnoticed by Anika and Gauri…..
Anika tried to lighten the situation………
Anika ‘’why are we standing here come lets go in…I have so many things to talk to you…and Shivaay might be coming too…….so let’s make him surprised’’
Everyone agreed and went in……….
Anika ‘’ I will call Shivaay you all sit’’ she said while bringing them in the large hall……..
Om ‘’bhabhi…wait a second…we know what is Shivaay going to surprise you with…so while talking to him just say that you received your surprise and ask him to come quickly…only then he will relax’’
Anika ‘’but how do you know about his surprise’’
Rudra ‘’bhabhi we will explain everything later…just say him that your surprise arrived in van and it is outside your restaurant’’
Anika ‘’what…. my surprise is in van?’’
Om ‘’bhabhi…we all cannot wait to meet Shivaay…so please call him and speak as we say’’
Anika ‘’ok..ok..i understand ……let me call’’
Anika called Shivaay

———In the car towards S.A.M.S. Restaurant

Shivaay picked the call and switched on his Bluetooth……

Anika ‘’hello Shivaay…where are you?’’
Shivaay ‘’coming back Anika’’ he said irritatingly
Anika ‘’is everything alright?’’
Shivaay POV ‘’How will I face you Anika …I missed your Champa…I lost your champa…where will I find it…you took a promise from me to bring it back whenever I can..but now it is neither in Mumbai and I donno how and where it is’’
Anika ‘’Shivaay what happened why are you not answering? Is everything alright?’’
Shivaay came back into senses and said ‘’yes Anika …everything is alright…in 10 minutes I will be at restaurant’’
Anika ‘’come soon your surprise is in van and outside our restaurant…I am waiting for it to open’’
Shivaay ‘’what…are you sure?’’
Anika ‘’yes…why weren’t you sure?’’
Shivaay ‘’thank God …I am coming and till I come don’t open…I want to see happiness in your face…ask Sahil and Mahi to come down and you all wait for me’’
Anika ‘’wait a minute how do you know Sahil did not go to school today?’’
Here OmRu Gauri Soumya Mahi and Sahil were laughing without making sound and there Shivaay was biting his tongue after getting caught……
Shivaay ‘’woh…woh…’’
Anika ‘’I am asking you something Shivaay..and tell me the truth’’
Shivaay ‘’ok fine I asked him to stay back and asked Mahi to support Sahil if you deny…I wanted everyone to stay at the time of unveiling the surprise…I am …I am sorry’’
Anika ‘’ok fine…sorry singh oberoi…today is a very happy day for me and for you too…you know who came…….’’
Om Ru stood up and cupped Anika’s mouth before she could speak further……..Anika eyes widened and she smiled
Shivaay ‘’who came?’’
Anika ‘’no one I was about to say our restaurant is full…so many people came’’
Shivaay ‘’ohh that’s good’’
Anika ‘’ok fine …come soon’’
Shivaay ‘’no you come down …I have reached’’
Anika disconnected the call……….
She looked towards all the four and asked all of them to sit in Shivaay’s room….but before that they wanted to see their Shivaay bhayya once……..she took them towards the window and made them stand behind the curtains……..she said she would bring him towards there pointing a place and from here they can see their Shivaay bhayya before meeting him in person in his cabin……..
She hugged all of them once again and came down along with Sahil and Mahi……….
Om asked the car driver to bring the van towards the main gate of restaurant………and said the exact place from where they could see his brother………..
Anika, Mahi and Sahil left the rest four and walked down…..here all the four Oberois were waiting to have a glance of their Shivaay bhayya……Finally Shivaay’s car reached and he got down……..he was the same with or without Oberoi surname…..his attitude, his swag of setting hair and way of removing sunglasses everything was same……..
Shivaay came to Anika and hugged her………here Om, Rudra, Saumya and Gauri were having happy tears to look at their brother after almost an year…they just wanted to run to him and hug him… but since Anika wanted them to surprise Shivaay so they stayed back…….
Anika reciprocated the hug of Shivaay and Shivaay, Sahil, Mahi and Anika went to the van …Shivaay asked the driver to get the scooty down……
Shivaay bought scissors and gave it to Anika……Anika was all the way looking towards the Window……Shivaay noticed it …….
Shivaay ‘’what happened Anika? Why are you looking towards that window?’’ saying he turned to look at the window…all four Oberois hid themselves carefully not to be seen by Shivaay…….
Anika ‘’Shivaay let’s go inside first…I can unveil this later ‘’
Shivaay ‘’no Anika…first cut the ribbon…I had already delayed and I don’t want it to get further more delayed’’
Anika again looked at the Window…..
Shivaay ‘’Anika something is wrong…let me go and check what is behind that window’’
Mahi came forward and stopped Shivaay and said ‘’Nothing …Anika Bhabhi has brought four beautiful hearts to our restaurant may be she is tensed about them…I said I have placed them there…so…’’ he stumbled all the way while saying…….
Shivaay ‘’Anika relax…Mahi has kept them right so nothing will happen to the four hearts…now don’t spoil this surprise common unveil it’’
Anika nodded and cut the ribbon…….There stood her Red Champa elegantly with a side car…as if a beautiful lady was standing with her cute baby……….
Anika looked at her Champa and touched it with affection…she kissed her bike and smiled……..
Anika turned towards Shivaay and hugged and said ‘’This is the best day of my life Shivaay for many reasons…….you still remembered about this ? I am so happy today Shivaay…thank you…thank you so much’’
Saying this she kissed him……..Mahi and Sahil closed their eyes for a while so did the Oberoi’s……
Shivaay kissed her back and said ‘’I was so late Anika in getting this…but after I got the award I thought it was time to give you too the award and so I planned this surprise…so finally here you go with your champa…shall we go for a ride’’
Anika ‘’no’’ she screamed
Shivaay ‘’ok..ok…relax..we will go later but why are you screaming?’’
Anika ‘’nothing we should go in now….’’
Mahi signalled Anika to stop Shivaay
Shivaay ‘’come let’s go in ‘’
Anika ‘’wait’’ she screamed again
Shivaay ‘’what happened? Are you okay? Why are you acting weird?’’
Anika ‘’no..nothing..woh..woh..actually Sahil wanted to play with you near the pool so you guys go there and then come inside…you know na you will never deny his wish’’
Sahil now stared at Anika unbelievingly…….
Shivaay turned towards Sahil and lifted him in his arms ‘’Sahil you wanted to play with me near the pool then you could have said it directly to me…why do you want your mad didi to say this to me?’’
Sahil gave a fake smile and looked at Anika angrily and Anika looked here and there trying to manage the situation…….
They both started moving towards Pool……..
Mahi and Anika went in and Anika while walking towards the hall……….
Anika ‘’thanks Mahi …warna aaj raita phel jaata …mein tho bhool gayi thi ki Omru ko Shivaay ka cabin nahi pata….’’
Mahi ‘’Anika tum bhi na’’
Anika ‘’ruko..why are you coming with me…who will bring Shivaay to his cabin if you are with me.? You go I will message you once I settle them in Shivaays room, then by some reason you bring him in…..’’
Mahi nodded and went towards Pool……….
Anika came to the hall and they were still looking at the window to still have the view of their Shivaay bhayya……….
Anika ‘’come it’s time you meet your brother in person’’
Anika held OmRu’s hand and asked Gauri and Soumya to follow……..Soumya and Gauri stood behind…….
Anika looked at them questioningly and so did OmRu
Gauri ‘’didi..i think we both should stay here…it’s after an year three of them will be facing each other…we don’t want to become kabaab mein haddi in between them…there will be so many unspoken expressions and many things which they might want to talk about and may stop because of us…so we will stay back here…’’
Anika went to her and brushed her face and said ‘’you are right..i will come and join you once I see happiness on Shivaay’s face…till then come have some food …it’s your Shivaay jiju’s recipe……She took OmRu to Shivaay’s cabin and then sent Gauri and Soumya to her cabin and ordered her staff to bring food that Saumya and Gauri order for ‘’
She messaged Mahi that everything was set and he can bring Shivaay to his cabin
