The Fault In Our Stars

36;)

36. Birthday ; Babe

"Hello, Mrs. Malhotra .", Avneet greeted the woman with a fake smile who was now smiling widely. Duh, she was meeting an singer now.

"Hello, Aayush! Ishaan talks so much about you.", Avneet crouched to ruffle the boy's hair.

"You're vely prwettyy!", Aayush, Ishaan's best friend, said making avneet laugh.

"Aw, thank you. C'mon now, Ishaan is waiting for you...", she said and showed where Siddharth was sitting on a table with Ishaan and some of the other kids from the playway they had invited.

Aayush immediately ran away, yelling his friends name and a gift box in his small hands.

Avneet invited the woman in before greeting the other few parents that were there.

It was after a few minutes and all the children were busy with the mascots and the magician that was showing silly tricks to the kids making them all gasp.

Well, Siddharth arranged the party along with Avneet. He made it very children friendly with all the things that could keep them all busy and
entertained.

Avneet was quitely sipping on a soft drink in a corner after greeting all the guests.

"Hey!"

Avneet turned to look at Rohan who had just walked in with a Clown cap, making her laugh.

"Yo Roh! You look so funny. What is that for?", Avneet asked, still laughing at the obnoxious goggles he was sporting along with the funny сар.

"For my munchkin. He said he wanted a Clown and they were unavailable everywhere."

"Aww", Avneet cooed, giving him a grateful hug but still laughing.

Siddharth looked at Avneet when he heard her laugh. So many guests along with him turned as well when they heard the beautiful clear sound of laughs and giggles.

"Isn't he Avneet's boyfriend?"

"Yeah, it looks like it."

"They look good together. Don't they?"

Siddharth clenched his jaw when he heard about what the two women sitting near him were mumbling about.

"I think it's his child. Maybe the announcement with Sid was just a publicity stunt."

"Yeah, I mean... Look, they're whispering among themselves like love birds."

Siddharth knows, he knows very well that Rohan and Avneet were probably making fun of each other.

He knows their is nothing going on between them but how can he shut the mouth of
these filthy people who keep talking nonsense.

He hates to see them shamelessly accusing Avneet of something she is not.

Ishaan already heard so much about not having a single parent already, now he won't let him hear something like that ever again.

And how dare they question that he is not Ishaan's real father?!

Fucking fine, if they think whispering in Avneet's ears makes him Ishaan's father, then so be it.

He stood up from the chair he was sitting on and swiftly walked towards Avneet. Rohan was now playing with all the kids who looked super fascinated because they haven't ever seen such a handsome clown before.

Siddharth stood in front of Avneet who looked up at him, mentally cursing herself for not wearing her heels so she could have looked as the same height as Siddharth.
