After all the fiasco related with Sameer's accident and fortunate escape, Sameer didn't convert into his human form atleast for 1 week.He didn't even have had food too. As a werewolf, they never eat food so as to heal his wounds. Self healing has been seen as a key to the health of the werewolves.
Sometimes during night when he wakes up asleep he could see Neerja sleeping tiredly besides him. Extreme work immediately after giving birth to the second child, Sameer's health, Varsha's tantrum took a toll on her. Sameer all he could do was that to watch her helplessly pleading before the gods to restore his health.Sometimes deep in her sleep he would pull her towards him and puts her head under his left arm curved under it.
Eventually after a whole one and half week on a fine day when a tired Neerja woke up she was amazed to see her pressure cooker was on the stove with Sameer cooking wearing a jeans and an apron on his bare body. Sameer was horrified to see her face. It was pale and gaunt and looked like a zombie. He swished her to go and get some good sleep.Neerja simply went and once she saw the bed, she plopped on it. Sameer didn't had a hard time to watch his son. But he struggled a lot to manage his daughter. Whenever he kept working on his household chores she would turn into a baby wolf and start chewing on the legs of the dining table. Once he tells her that was wrong she would smile at him in her most appealing manner.
"Chinnu come here", Sameer called Varsha. "Yes Nanna!", she jumped upon him. "If Nanna ask you some thing will you do that for me?", he asked. Varsha picked her ears up."If you keep quiet and sit on that mattress until Nanna finishes the work, Nanna will give you pork curry. Is that deal good for you?", he looked at her with hopeful eyes."Yes Nanna!", she saluted before him. Finally Sameer managed to calm his daughter and completed his house chores. Once he gave her pork soup she wrinkled her face. "Pork curry?", her eyebrows furrowed. "It's new recipe of Nanna. Hope that you would like this new recipe ", he replied.
Once she loved its spicy taste, she settled."Now time to wake up Neeru. Neeru...", he walked past his bedroom. Neerja was sound sleep and he didn't feel like to wake her up.But still the time was past noon and she hadn't had any kind of food he felt the need to feed her."Neeru it's already late. Food is cooked. Children are fine. Everything is fine. Blah blah blah blah ", he kept on blabbering. On the other side Neerja woke up without making any noise and headed towards the bathroom.When she came back Sameer had already slept.
After Neerja had food and washed the plates, Sameer woke up to have his dinner."You should have called me. First of all you had been hit and injured. I would have done everything", Neerja complained."Is that so? I have already seen with my very own eyes how tired you were. That's why I disturb you", Sameer ate a morsel of food given to him by Neerja."How do you feel right now?", Neerja enquired.
"To be honest, I am feeling much better now but our children are a handful", Sameer sat on the kitchen stool. "Yeah especially the little one", she agreed."Not Tushar. I was talking about Chinnu. She is so active for her age.Literally I am terrified of her.She hasn't gained her ability to control her power. In other words, so far she couldn't understand the momentum of issue we are already in", Sameer sighed. "How about Tushar?", Neerja enquired.
"Let us wait and see", Sameer moved."Sam in this chilled weather even after wearing three sweaters, I am shivering like anything. But you are bravely flaunting your bare body!", Sameer noted Neerja's remarks. While he was dressing Sameer felt two hands hugging him from behind. "You need warmth?", he asked in a low voice."Hmmm", she mumbled. He pushed another mattress beside the one where the kids laid down. Being engulfed in the warmth of Sameer and slowly lulling into sleep, Sameer was calculating plans in his mind on shifting to Arempudi.
'I have to finish of every work and has to elope with our family to Arempudi'.
However all his plans crashed when he discussed about his plan to the manager of his shop."Sameer based on the contract you have signed two more years left. If you are so adamant to move over there, based on the clause you are supposed to pay a hefty amount as fine. Why do you want to shift from here? Everything is good. Your family is fine. You need an increment? Is that what are you expecting?", Sameer kept mum.
"Sameer bhai! If you keep your angrybird face like this nothing gonna work out. Our business is really thriving very well.Just think about that Sameerji... Two more years", his manager pleaded before him.
