In the eerie environment of the corridors of the Oberoi Mansion, Annika tiptoed towards the kitchen. Following her was her army of six, aka hers and Shivaay's soveigners, three boys and three pretty cute girls. They silently followed their mumma on their tiny feet.

Shivika and Shivani were the eldest twins. Anvaay and Shini,the middle ones. Adhvik and arjun, the youngest ones. They both were adopted after six months of anvaay and shini's birth. Shhh!! Never say that to Shivaay or Annika, until you want to get killed by their wrath.

It was ten to twelve in the midnight and in exact ten minutes, her husband was going to be forty. Was he even aging? That was her first thought whenever she looked at him.

Annika turned on the light as they reached the kitchen to fetch the delicious cake, made by her. All of the kids squealed in delight seeing the delicious looking cake. Well, in case you are wondering how they are up so late, they were so excited that it was their paa's birthday, and their secret wish to eat the cake. They knew their mumma made scrumptious cakes.

Annika giggled seeing them licking their lips looking at the cake with twinkling eyes.

'Guys, it's for papa, not you! Now let's go and surprise him..' She whispered to which they pouted, but followed her back to the room nonetheless.

The poolside was decorated beautifully. The rose petals were floating on the water along with lit diyas. The tree on the side was covered with the lights. To the branches, hung their photos with so many happy memories. There was a cozy bedding in a corner for she wanted to spend the rest of the night there,with the love of her life. Annika herself did everything. Her little munchkins were very helpful keeping their father busy in order to not let him know their plan.

As the clock struck twelve, Annika signed the kids who grinned mischeviously. It was going to be fun.

Shivaay woke up with a jolt as he heard the kids screaming his name. They were crying. He looked around to see the room empty. Even Annika wasn't there. His heart thumped in worry and fear. Was they even fine?

He walked outside to feel the wails getting louder. His anxiety reaching the peak. He followed the noise only to get awestruck with the scenery in front. There stood his wife with her ever charming smile, and behind her were his devils who were giggling. He narrowed his eyes at them. Did they just try to prank him?

'Happiiiiiiiieeeeeeee birthdayyyyyyyyyy, paaaaaa...' The chorus brought him out of his thoughts. He looked amused. He even forgot it was his birthday, as usual. But what surprised him the most was that his sleepy heads were awake, that too so late.

Annika walked to him slowly. He smiled at her. She looked ethreal even in her black night suit, without any makeup. Her eyes shone with love for him, as she showed her canines smiling widely.

Cupping his face, she kissed his forehead lingering her lips there for a moment. He closed his eyes taking a deep breath. His lips lightly curved up.

'Happy birthday, Shivaay..' She wished happily to which he hugged her saying thank you. She hugged him back caressing his back. He swayed them a little feeling happy. Not even a day had passed when he hadn't felt happy ever since this woman had entered his life.
