"Knock, Knock"

Pratap: come in my son

Arjun entered the office room and smiled widely seeing the dinner plate in front of Pratap is all finished and smelled the warm lemon filling the room with long awaited warmness

Arjun: Prince Pratap, you have called for me
Pratap smiled: I have prepared for you a cup of warm lemon with 5 cubes of sugar, it's Surbhi's favorite warm drink and I think it's yours as well

Arjun: yes, thank you so much

And he sat with wide smile in the chair opposite to Pratap's desk and took a sip of the warm lemon as Pratap leaned his back to the chair, closed his eyes and took a sip of the tea

Pratap: is there news today?

Arjun swallowed: yes...but...ahem...It's not good so I didn't want bother you with (then he smiled) but no there is also very good news too

Pratap chuckled faintly: my dear son, it's your bad habit to focus on the bad news and forget the good news, since you were child; I have noticed that about you

Arjun smiled widely and looked down to his cup of lemon and Pratap's smile lessened

Pratap: Arjun, why are you silent, son?

Arjun smiled widely: I am just happy (then he looked at Pratap) forgive me Prince but it's been so long since I saw you as happy and it's almost never you have treated me as your son

Pratap took a deep breath then said in low tone

Pratap: I am sorry for that Arjun, you are my nephew I should have been a father to you but the tough days we are going through together made me understand that I have always cared for you as my own

Arjun smiled widely and his eyes crowded with tears

Arjun: thank you Prince, I also never was a son to you, I am sorry for that

Pratap smiled widely: it's never too late to start and you already started long time ago, now it my turn; so what is the good news?

Arjun smiled: in few months, Shivaay and Anika will have a son and a daughter

Pratap smiled widely and closed his eyes, then touched the (SURBHI) necklace and the braille book under his finger

Pratap: God blessed them with the happiness we wished for them and blessed us to see it, you must be so happy to have your first great grand children

Arjun sighed: yes but unfortunately Jhanvi ruined this happiness for me by a foolish act, which is the bad news; Jhanvi visited Anika in the hospital

Pratap frowned faintly and sighed

Pratap: I have feared this to happen; did she tell anything to Surbhi or Shivaay?

Arjun smiled: No, I mean... if she did Anika would have been in front of the palace right now but instead she went to have dinner with her family to celebrate the good news, which means she is fine and happy and has nothing to worry about

Meanwhile

In the New Pizza place

Anika bit her thumb nail nervously and squeezed on her chair to stop herself from screaming her doubts to Shivaay who was laughing happily with the Singh Oberoi family and doesn't notice her head that was racing since Jhanvi's visit

Ragini frowned: I can't believe Kabeer told you about the babies' gender when I told him that I will make a video about it, I will kill him

Shivaay chuckled: the poor guy, give him a break; he didn't know that my talkative wife can't keep her mouth shut
