Sidharth was present in his meeting room wearing his Armani suit. He was lost in his thoughts.

"Mr. Shukla what can I do for you". One of his associates asked him.

Sidharth cleared his throat..."I have a question for you".

"Yes please"

"Recently in hiring staff, I encountered a very difficult problem. I offered the beat conditions within my ability, but she was not interested." He said.

"You can try to make feel the other person that you not only trust in her ability but also more willing to help her, support her, like live and grow together." His employ suggested.

"Help and grow together?" He mutter to himself thoughtfully. "You can continue gentleman."

He was checking her profile to know more about her. And find any way to placate her and make her agree to his offer. When he saw a picture of hers with cake with caption "love cakes❤❤" his mind triumph with an idea.

*******

He bought a cake and took Aarav to the Lifeline hospital to meet shehnaaz. Reyansh was with them too.

"Hello kids....." shehnaaz chirped.

Sidharth was again mesmerized by seeing the beauty in front him. She was looking beautiful in her loose pink top and blue jeans.

Aarav quickly ran and hug her. He brings her near cake and gave it to her. Shehnaaz was touched by his gesture and ruffled his hair lovingly.

"Dear parents, next part is the shooting game. It's your turn to do best for your children."

There was a block having different soft toys and in the center a shooting target.

"I want the pink rabbit Dr." Little girl Siya said to shehnaaz. Shehnaaz smiled and grabbed the shooting gun. Aarav and sidharth were the next in row.

"OK I'll shoot for you right away". Shehnaaz said to siya making her squeak with delight. Shehnaaz pointed her gun to the target.

"It's look like Dr. Shehnaaz's eyesight is not good." Sidharth commented smirking.

"Wait and see." Shehnaaz said sassy challenging him. And she missed the target. Sidharth muffled a chuckle. shehnaaz picked the gun for another try and  targeted but missed it again.

"Fight in Dr. It's the last chance." Siya said pouting.

Shehnaaz closed her one eye and target again. Sidharth came near her and pointed her gun straight in the right direction and shoot it. This time it hit the target.

They didn't realize that both of them were so close to each other. Their lips were mere inches away. Both of them were looking intense in the eyes. Aarav's smile widened looking at them.

Shehnaaz spend a good time with Aarav, sidharth and his friend. Aarav was elated. Later all if them made their way back to home.

Reyansh stayed with them at night. Aarav showed a drawing to Reyansh who has lollipop in his mouth

"A girl and a boy, are walking and hit the muzzle of their gun. They hurt their faces." Reyansh said thoughtfully trying to decipher little man's drawing. Aarav slapped on his forhead.

"There is a generation gap between uncle and children." Reyansh said huffing.

***********

Next day when shehnaaz was going through the reports of Aarav she noticed his date if birth. She realized tomorrow is his birthday.

Aarav was playing with blocks along with Dr. Shehnaaz in the hospital play room.

"Wow, little aaarav has built a house." Shehnaaz cheer a sad Aarav. For some odd reasons she can't see the little man's gloomy face.

"Do you have any birthday wish?" Shehnaaz asked hoping to lift his mood.
Aarav throw all the blocks on the ground agitated.

"Whats wrong?" Shehnaaz gasped but Aarav turned his face not wanting to reply.
Aarav took two playing cars and bump them with other indicating an accident. Shenaaz frowned.

Sidharth came running who was seeing the scene from far. He hugged Aarav watching him tear up. Aarav softly cries in his father's neck.

"It's okk champ. Dad is her. Sidharth tried to calm him.

"Mr. Shukla why is Aarav like this?" Shehnaaz asked worried. They let Aarav paly with the other kids and left the hall to talk about Aarav's condition.

"It's all my fault. Five years ago, on Aarav's birthday me and Aarav lost our closest family." Shehnaaz heard him with conplete concentration.

"Over the years, because of PTSD , Aarav doesn't want to talk and meet anymore strangers. " Sidharth explained further. Shehnaaz thought for a while.

Suddenly an idea popped up in shehnaaz's mind." How about we celebrate Aarav's birthday. Since his birthday is one of his stressors." Sidharth listened attentively.

"So this is the first breakthrough to rebuild his trust system."  Shehnaaz further explained.

"But I'm not sure it will work." Sidharth replied.

"Trust me this time. We'll plan Aarav's birthday together."

"Together". Sidharth frowned.

"The word is settled Mr. Shukla."

*************
Shehnaaz and naina were sitting in their living room watching their movie.

"Aarav is so cute. He's suffering so much at a very young age, which make me feel bad." Shehnaaz pouted to Naina.

"I've never heard of Mr. Shukla was married." Naina muttered.

"He's probably married in seclusion." Naina shook her head.

***********
Next day shenaaz was in sidharth's office and rolling on the chair and taking in the office atmosphere.

Sidharth cleared his throat making her halt her chair. "Before cooperation I would like to negotiate the terms of our agreement."

"Although helping Aarav to celebrate his birthday is also treating him. Your private time outside of work, I will pay you. Sidharth continued. Shehnaaz agreed.

After planning and arguing wht to do and what not to Shehnaaz was exhausted and hungry. Her stomach growled and she  pouted.

Sidharth had a smile in his face looking at her cute antics. But when she pouted he growled inwardly. Her soft, plump lips were in a beautiful pout that wanting to be kissed. He scolded himself for the absurd thought.

"I'm hungry." Shehnaaz announced plopping on the couch lazily.

Sidharth called his staff and ordered food. Once the food reached shehnaaz in no time start digging in and moaned in delight.

Sidharth looked away in discomfort.

After the planning they decided to go on a picnic to celebrate Aarav's birthday. He dropped shehnaaz to her apartment and left for his mansion.
