As per Yug's instructions, all gather in the kitchen except Anika who was occupied by shivay.
Yug: I have very important information to share regarding Anika. Trisha raise her hand and said she also has something to say related to Anika's struggles. So Yug asked her to say her first.
Trisha explains to them about troubles, sadness, how she has been brainwashed by those stupid people of the orphanage. By the end of her talk, all had tears in their eyes because just by listening suffering of pure little soul gave them goosebumps. No one was able to voice out anything after that but just look towards Yug to know his side.
Firstly, Yug fills them with what happens in the morning between him and Shivay how Anika was happy to see him there and shivay's soft behaviour like he does not even once speak in a harsh voice in presence of Anika. All got shocked by this as they also know shivay's dirty way and his monstrous side. Before anyone asks questions Yug drop other than from tomorrow Anika is gonna work as his secretary. If they were shocked by the first information then this makes them dump stock.
John was the one who came out of stock.John: We have to save her anyhow we can't let to be trap in that beast's cage
Jim: Exactly before that monster breaks her beyond repair we have to take serious steps.
Trisha: But what and how ??? We all are powerless in front of him. He can extinct us as we were never born.
Yug: True we have to plan something big and drastic.
Jim: ( With a bright smile) Trisha how old she is?? To which Trisha reply 17 right now. Then our problem is solved we mean John and I can adopt her as legal guardian. So after that, she will be under our wing then after some time, we will make her continue her studies in some other state. Jim describe his plan.
Trisha: Plan is perfect but do you think that the devil will not able to find her. She forwards her doubt in an unsure voice.
John: Trisha is right he will not leave her easily once he eye someone but I think or can say as per my knowledge when someone adopts a kid they have the right to rename him/her if they want. So we can change her name top of that after adoption our head name will be attached to her name we can send her to the north to complete her academic years in this way she will be away from dangers.
Yug: We can do that but as per me we should rent someplace near her college and can take turns to be there with her so we can be assured that she is safe and sound away from the dark soul.
Trisha: We must apply for adoption and as soon as possible. Jim and John are way too elder than her so they will not make any fuss and by any chance, if they make then money can cease their mouth.All agree to her plan and decide to talk to Jiya about this in the evening and also strictly warn her to stay away from shivay. All again went to do their regular task.
________________________________While on the other hand shivay face a really hard time pacifying Anika as she is not talking to him due to his earlier rude behaviour and top of that he has zero knowledge of how to woo someone without any materialistic things because he very well knows that she not that type of girl who will run behind money or for expensive things. Suddenly he got an amazing idea.
Shivay: Bud what if I will take you to meet that kittens and if you want then I will let you play with them every day or whenever you want. He said hopefully.
Anika: ( With a million-dollar smile ) you will let me play with them??? She asked just like a child who wants to ask for some valuable thing and going to get it before altering forgetting about his anger.
Shivay: Promise. You can play with it the whole day if you want.Anika started to jump in happiness with a bright smile. Which give shivay the feeling that he won the whole world.
Anika: When I can meet them??
Shivay holds her hand and said let's go to which he earned an innocent smile but suddenly she pouts with a frown. Shivay erases the frown from her forehead then ask her reason for her being sad.
Anika: I don't have milk with me right now. Innocently she said her dought.
Shivaay: Blütenknospe cats are lactose intolerant but they can have biscuits we will purchase them in the way now shall we move.Anika got satisfied by his idea so in response she just nods her hand and moves along with him. When they reach dinner hall she sports Trisha and Yug immediately she frees her hand from shivay's grip and run towards them and hug Trisha. While shivay gave anger glares to both because just to meet them she leaves his hand and he can't afford to lose her. But as soon as Jiya break apart he changes his facial expression quickly.
Anika: Trisha di I am going out with bear to meet my friends. Yug inquire about her friend with confusion as Trisha had said about how lonely she is with no supporter.
Anika: Offo you know when I came here for an interview that time while going back I meet with kittens and now they are my friends so he is taking me there to play she said last part pointing towards shivay.
Yug: How he knows about their whereabouts??But was interrupted by shivay who lightly pull Anika towards himself and replied on her behalf.
"That their shelter has been arranged by his bodyguard". This time he spoke carefully so Anika will not get offended again.Yug and Trisha don't have the heart to let her go but they know right now nothing is in their hand except praying for her safety and have worried and hesitation experience on their face which was noticed by Anika and she ensured them she will be back soon without giving any trouble to bear.
They both move out in the parking lot where Khanna was already waiting for his boss but he got surprised by seeing a little girl along with shivay. As they come closer he recognises her as Anika and gives her a small smile.
Anika: Hi bulky man how are you??
Khanna: Did you called me bulky man?? To which Anika bob her head positively. I am fine honey. Khanna replied.
Shivay: ( irritated) Her name is Anika so you better call her as mam only.To which Anika scold him by saying that he also addresses her as a bud so bulky man can also call her honey she doesn't have any problem with that and gives a full smile to Khanna. Although shivay didn't like but select to keep mum because somewhere he also wants her to develop a friendly bond with Khanna.
Shivay helps her to sit in the backseat of the car and then he enter from the other side while Khanna occupied a passenger seat. Shivay asks Khanna to lead them to where he has to send the kittens and also to stop at some general store to buy biscuits. Khanna informed that he adopted that kittens so he was already in storage for food.
Anika: Bear at what time I should report tomorrow?? What is the dress code ??? What do I have to do? I don't know 'B' of business. Who will teach me ?? She asked all questions in a single breath.
Khanna got tensed as shivay do not prefer too noisy people or the one who can't stop talking before he could say something to save her Shivaay replied calmly that "She will get to know all necessary things tomorrow and he will pick her by 10 am". Khanna almost survives cardiac arrest by hair theard after witnessing his boss's calm side.
By then they have reached Khanna's house. He guided them to the backyard where a small shelter was made with recycled cardboard. Instantly Anika runs to them and starts to play with them.
Khanna invites shivay inside his house but he refused to say he wants to admire her. But asked him to arrange healthy lunch for them.
Shivay's POV.
Today I promise myself that I will always try to content this smile so pure and innocent till I am alive. Now I come face to face the biggest truth of my life that I fall deeply in love with Anika. Don't know how but she becomes my world and I am ready to accept it open heartily.
