“Nothing. I mean nothing?”Anika asked, her expressions was some different type
“Actually di..we thought that we will cook together”Ishu said coming in
“But I’m hungry”She said with a frown on her face
Everyone looked at her face and said “Awww” while a voice came from behind which belonged to, ofcourse Shivaay
“Who’s hungry?”
And all the fingers were pointed towards Anika
“YOU ARE HUNGRY?” Shock would be an understatement to describe Shivaay’s situation
And Anika nodded her head like a small child
“But you just eat chaat in the way and u ate 4 plates”Shivaay said and all looked at her with You-ate-chaat?
“Haan so, you also ate 3 plates. Didn’t you?”Anika snapped back, oh she can be angry in hunger
R: Bhaiya?
O: Just ate?
P: Chaat?
D: Woh bhi..
I: Unhygenic
S: Teen plates???
Extreme shock was visible on everyone’s face and Shivaay turned his face to other side
“Aray haan. U know I got pooray 15 minutes lecture, 15 minutes lecture on eating those unhygenic Chaat and all but when I made him eat that chat he just said oh it’s fine and then he ate 3 plates”
Anika told the gang glancing at Shivaay in between who was so embrass cause he didn’t want this gang to anything
“Wait a minute. He didn’t eat three plates but three and a half”Anika said after few second remembering
“Anika….I ate three only. Okay?” Shivaay said with some fearing expressions
“God please made her quiet…please Anika chup hojao”Shivaay kept mumbling these things
“No you forgot. The last one from which we both eat together”She told him very casually and everyone’s jaw dropped
“And you know what, my hand was injured so I wasn’t able to eat so Shivaay made me eat….”
Shivaay was standing there with a Anika-why-u-need-to-tell-everything look on his face and the others were just glaring him
“Bhaiya..you tou never made me eat from your hands”Rudi said making puppy eyes plus glaring at Shivaay
“Leave it…just make something to eat. Haan”Shivaay said changing the topic to avoid more embrassement
“Haan Anika di make the pasta u always make. It’s so tasty”Saumya said and Shivaay sighed in relief
“But how will I make, my hand is injured”Anika showed her hand to them with a sad face
“Koi nahi didi..so Bade bhaiya will make. Inn ki dishes bhi aik dum….Yummm”Samuya said closing her eyes feeling the taste
“Hmm didi, he’s a masterchef”Ishana added
“Tou theek hai phir d..”Anika said in a flow and bite her tongue as she was going to say DDB and looked at Shivaay who was giving a glare to her
“D???What’s D?”Rudi raised his eyes in a questioning manner
“The…The Shivaay Singh Oberoi will cook today”She covered up nicely and smiled at Shivaay
“C’mon Shivaay, we will cook in Obros style”O said pulling up Rudi and he nodded happily
~~~
Ishu, Sumo, Prinku and Dev were sitting on the chairs kept there while Anika was sitting on the counter. Everyone had asked her not to sit there but she didn’t listen anyone at all.
“Anika please come down now, atleast!”O requested her but like a stubborn kid she nodded her head in a NO
“I won’t be coming down till the food cooks. I’m so so hungry so, DON’T ANGRY ME” She glared at O with saying in full Akshay Kumar style
“Fine. Fine. Fine”O surrendered with showing his hand
“Haan. So when will the food will be ready?”She asked bending down a little and looking the dish they were cooking
“Anika move back”Shivaay said in a lil angry tone but concernly
“Humphhh”She moved back making faces at him
“Few more minutes and it’ll be readyyyyyy”Rudi sang at the last
“Yipeee…..”Anika eyes twinkled at once. Shivaay looked at her and smiled at her child-like innocence
~~~
Obros and Dev settled on the table while Ishu, Prinku and Sumo set the dining table while Anika went to change her clothes.
Ishu,Prinku and Sumo also sat when Anika came there in a night trouser with a long shirt. Her hairs tied into two plaits.
“Didi u look sho shweet”Samuya said when she sat down
“Shweet? Anika aik dum bachi lag rahi hai like we are sending her to school”Dev interfered giggling at Anika “See we can play with her plaits as well” He held her both plaits and played with it until he received a smack on his hand
“Don’t touch my hairs Dev”She angrily glared at him “Give me the plate” She continued and Ishu passed her the plate
Anika filled her plate completely not leaving a single space in it
“Didi, isn’t it soooooooo much?”Rudi stretched the so
“No, not at all infact I can fill it more”She said making everyone widen their eyes
“But why are you eating so much?”O was shocked
“Cause I’m hungry”She replied like Ron Weasly [U can find Harry Potter ref. in my parts cause I am going through HP fever]
Anika then started eating while everyone took the food
“OH MY GOD! Delicious”She said eating the
“Thank you”Shivaay said with a smirk on his face
“Told ya di, he’s a good chef”Saumya said eating from her plate
They were divided into four on each sides. They were sitting like Shivaay-Anika-Dev-Prinku on the left side while O-Ishu-Rudi-Sumo on right side
So, Rudi was trying to eat from Sumo’s plate but everytime he recieved a glare or a smack on his hand but he kept doing that. Ishu and Om were feeding each other as they were engaged so no one can tease them. Dev tried to hold Prinku’s hand under the table earning a pinch from her so he didn’t try again but kept looking at r making her blush. And from those two people left, one was busy eating while the other was busy staring the cute little Anika (as he thought)
I never found a girl this cute, like this much cute. These two plaits and that innocence….Hold On! It’s the dinning table, come on Shivaay focus on your food right now
He wasn’t eating his food when he realized there are his brothers and sisters. He composed himself and look around and sighed in relief as no one saw him. Oh Yes! Anika also didn’t see him cause she was busy eating.
~~~
All the younsters sat on the pool side for a little quality time as Rudi said.
“Let’s play truth and dare”Rudi proposed an idea
“T&D”Anika whispered to herself “but it’ll be too long and I am too sleepy”
“Di can I ask you what had started to happen you? Means u were a owl!”Ishu said concernly
“Oh! Nothing. Just happens”Anika clearly tell them not to worry about her
“She had started to work alot na Ishu”Om told Ishu and winked at Anika who mumbled a Thankyou
“Well, u have to play for a little time”Dev told her
“Bade bhaiya, are u interested?”Saumya feared as he hated these childish game a few months before
“Oh, Yes!”He exclaimed and everyone just look at him
“Ho kya gaya hai bhaiya ko?”Rudi whispered in Samuya’s ear and she shrugged her shoulders
Well, they started to play the game
~~~
All were deciding to give a task to Ishu as the bottle stopped on her and she took dare.
“Nahi this one”
“No…No…go and dance with O”
“Mimic someone”
“Sing a song”
While all were shouting and deciding the task with giggling in between when Shivaay suddenly felt some weight on his shoulder. He turned to look a sleepy Anika leaned on his shoulder and falling down more. He held her gently and called everyone
“She slept”He pointed towards Anika and all became quiet at once
“Itnay shor mae?”Rudi asked a little loudly
“Ssshhhh Rudi. She’ll wake up” Shivaay whispered gently placing her on his lap
“What should we do now?”Saumya questioned
“I think we should take her to her room and we all play then!”Prinku proposed the idea and everyone agreed with her
“I’ll take her to her room”Shivaay said before anyone could speak amyone
“Oooooookaaaaaaay”Rudi smiled in a teasing manner
Shivaay glared him and then carefully picked her up in bridal style in her arms
Seeing Shivaay’s extreme careness everyone was left in awe.
Anika stirred in his arms and made cute faces. He smiled looking at her and took her to her room.
Laying her down on the bed he covered her with a duet
Itni cute mat ho Anika. Mae pagal hojaoon ga
Shivaay thought looking at her. She was literally the cutest creature on Earth for him
~~~
“Bhaiya Truth or Dare?”Rudi smirked at Shivaay
“Truth”Shivaay had seen him smirking but didn’t know why he was doing that
“Okay. Now tell me why did u lie to Anika didi about me asking you to bring her home and what was that chaat story?”He raised his eyebrows and Shivaay looked horrified. He blinked his eyes in confusion
“I’m feeling sleepy”He stood up in a second and ran from there not answering the questions
The youngsters laughed at his reaction
“I tell you. He loves her”O said looking at his retreating figure
