When the day ends

Just clearing my draft 😁

A short shivika tale!

Khanna- sir, he is here.

Shivaay kept the glass aside and prepared to leave but she held his hand to stop him.

Annika- you're not even halfway done, eat up first.

S- it's ok, I don't really feel hungry.

He freed himself and stood up, she insisted again.

A- still, you gotta eat something. Want to faint and fall somewhere?

S- Annika.

He was pissed this time, twitching his lips he passed a fed up look and she sighed watching that.

A- ok go then, you're not my only attention here.

As soon as she finished , there was this noise she had been anticipating any second now.

Pinky- ok ohhh ohh ohh, don't cry my baby. Parenting didn't end with just giving birth to her , you have to take care  of the child too. When I went to your room, I found her on the floor, and she's been crying for how long I don't know! Oh my baby!!

Pinky kept saying sweet nothings while juggling the child in her arms. Annika watched him for a second,he just shook his head in disbelief and went from there.

A- but how? I keep pillows around her all the time.

She immediately walked towards pinky and tried to carry her 3 year old daughter Mrithula who seemed to enjoy being with her daadi more now. She didn't approve off from Pinky's arms when Annika approached.

P- you want to brag about your genious plan or what? Can't you see, she's crying?

Pinky kept taunting her, Annika without paying attention just concentrated on her child who finally bid adieu to her favorite daadi and floated in her mom's arms now.

A- are you ok?

She checked all over her body for any wounds, and then wiped her tears slowly. Meeti looked fine now, she just coiled her arms around annika's neck and rested keeping head just between her chest and the collarbone. And soon she started playing with her mom's chain like everytime, as if it's her favorite toy. That shining thing.

A- she's fine now, don't worry.

P- thank god for that. What if she really got hurt or something? You should be more careful, I know you can't do completely well but at least try to be a little responsible.

Annika silently arranged plates for herself as well as everyone , still carrying Meeti with her. One by one everyone came down to the dining hall by then.

Rudra- good morning bhabi! Why is my little doll so moody today ?

He asked noticing Meeti being all quiet curled up to her mom only. Annika sat down on one of the chair, and started eating .

P-  my poor baby fell down from the bed, all because of her mother who couldn't invest time to take care of her well. And see even now she has happily started eating , what about meeti then?

Everyone were quiet, Rudra just didn't care of all the drama pinky has been doing, he neared his seat towards annika's and started making faces to cheer up Meeti.

Jhanvi- pinky, Annika is meeti's mother. She knows what to do and when to do.

P- as if.
