CHAPTER SONG - JAHAAN TU CHALA BY JASLEEN ROYAL

"Hey we are going to Maa. Are you coming along?" I asked to Shrey after we finished eating.

"Sorry. Not today. I have to take Mom and Mia to shopping. Gross." Shrey said. "May be someday. It has been a long time and I haven't met uncle-aunty."

...

I and Ayaan were standing and ringing the doorbell of my Mishra Mansion. I was here after a week or something. I did not tell Maa just to surprise her. I knew that she will love my sudden visit.

"Coming! Wait." I heard her sweet voice from inside the house. She opened the door. I hugged her quickly. She smelt like candy floss. She was wearing a red kurti combinated with white leggings and white dupatta.

"Ira?" She asked. She looked worried. She glanced at Ayaan.

"He's Ayaan. My twin." I told her. "And were you expecting someone else to be here?"

"NO, NO. Come inside." She took us to the drawing room. She asked us to sit and went inside to bring us some water.

"Maa looks pretty." Ayaan said. "I think I have seen her somewhere." I ignored his last sentence because I was still not sure that he called her Maa.

"Yeah she's pretty."

Maa came back. She handed us some water and biscuits. I asked her about papa and she told me that he was still at work.

"But papa usually comes back till this time." I said.

"Yeah but today he had some extra work."

We talked for 15 minutes. Maa told us that we look alike. She was appreciating Ayaan a lot. She asked him about his Dubai studies and then everything about him and my other two brothers.

"Okay, I want Ayaan to see my room. I'm going upstairs." I told her and stood up.

"Wait Ira! Not today please." She asked me to move to the corner for she wanted to talk about something in personal.

Maa told me that she was not feeling very good from inside today and then the house was also too messy and she did not want a richy to see her home like this.

"Aree he won't care. He is too good."

"Please Ira. Not today. " She was looking trepid.

"Okay."

...

"I think Maa was not very well today." Ayaan said. We were in the car and going back home after a very tiring day.

"Yeah."

...

I and my brothers ate the dinner together in Zain's room. After supper, I went on floor and started cuddling Rio. Zain joined me soon. Neil and Ayaan were fighting because Ayaan was making Neil feel guilty that he did not come along with us.

"Hey, Irr!" Zain said and started patting my head.

"My best friend too calls me Irr." I told him.

"Ohh you never told me about her."

"Him." I started telling Zain about Shrey. And I did not realise when I slumbered on his shoulder. Zain did let me sleep. 

Hope you like it
