They were having dinner. Reem was trying to eat on her own.

Vaishnavi: Reemi do main khilati hoon. Aese dekho dress spoil ho jayegi.

Reem: Naa... Eemi

Abhishek: Maa nahi to papa khilaye? Do main khilata hoon. Reemi papa ki good girl hai na.

Reem pouts. Abhishek took a bite in front of her mouth.

Reem (excited): Paaa iee-emm...

Abhishek: Haan khana kha lo phir hum ice-cream khayege.

Reem ate. As Abhishek was feeding her. She started playing with food with a spoon.

Vaishnavi: Baby aese nahi karte. Khana khane ke liye hota hai khelne ke liye nahi.

She nodded and started making noise by hitting the spoon on the table. She giggles enjoying the noise.

Abhishek: Ye badi ho rahi hai or zyada masti kar rahi hai.

Reem: No.

Just then Abhishek's phone.

Reem (excited): Mamii...

Abhishek: Haa tere mami ka hi phone hai.

Reem giggled and forward her hand to Abhishek indicating him to give her phone. Abhishek didn't notice her hand. He started talking on call. Reem gave him an angry look.

Reem (ordering): Papa do.

Abhishek: Main baat nahi karu?

Reem (trying to reach till phone): Naa...

Abhishek chuckled and handed her phone.

Reem (excited): Mami...

Siddharth: Mami nahi mamu.

Reem: Mami do.

Siddharth: Kyun? Mama se baat karo.

Reem: Naa... Mami do.

She turned to Abhishek.

Reem: Papa mamu say mami do.

Siddharth: Mami so gayi baby.

Reem looked at Abhishek with a pout.

Vaishnavi: Kya hua?

Abhishek: Avneet davai leke so gayi hai.

She handed him the phone and looked at Vaishnavi.

Reem: Mami so.

Vaishnavi: Subah mami jab uthegi tab hum mami se baat karege. Abhi hum bhi khana kha kar so jayege jaldi se.

Reem nodded. Vaishnavi took a bite feeding. Reem ate it continuing her game. Siddharth and Abhishek talked for a minute then Abhishek hang up with the call.

Vaishnavi: Kya hua?

Abhishek: Kuch nahi. He was saying sorry ke aese hum chale aaye to. Actually, Avneet was feeling down. To mujhe laga they need their time.

Vaishnavi nodded. They were having dinner.

Abhishek: What's your hobby?

Vaishnavi looked at Abhishek for some seconds.

Vaishnavi: Umm... Nothing?

Abhishek: Aese kaise? What do you love to do?

Vaishnavi: Being with you, Reemi, bhaiya, Avneet, Sumedh bhaiya and Mallika. I love to spend time with you guys.

Abhishek (smile): Your passion? Acha wait I can understand your point. Tumhara favourite subject ya kuch?

Vaishnavi: I used to love my studies. To sare subjects pasand the but almost 7-8 yrs ho gaye. So, abhi to kuch yaad bhi nahi.

Abhishek nodded.

Vaishnavi: You know I used to love drawing. I mean that was not my subject after a class but still, I used to draw. That was my favourite one.

Abhishek: If you got a chance of drawing or maybe paint?

Vaishnavi: Umm... I don't think so I will get a chance. I am just a 12th-completed person with no knowledge of anything.

Abhishek: Still your English speaking is good enough.

Vaishnavi: That's because I used to meet businessmen, educated people who used to speak good English. That's how I learnt. Like those men, not everyone was illiterate or chapri kind of person.

Abhishek nodded with a sigh. She is comfortable with him sharing about her life. She shares with him everything without any fear of being judged or anything.

Reem: Eemi baat kalo.

Abhishek: Reemi batao kaisa tha din?

Reem (giggle): Eeee!!!!

Abhishek: Kisko tang kiya maa ya mamu?

Reem: Naa papa.

Abhishek: Vaishu nahi kiya Reemi ne tang?

Vaishnavi: Nahin kiya Reemi?

Reem (pout): Ituu papa...

Abbishek and Vaishnavi chuckled.

They completed their dinner chit-chat and then left for home.
