Mute love

I don't want you to cry

Oh god . I never imagined she would cry so much over a cake. Why not, though? Ultimately, it was for her father.
And that's the main problem here  . The cake. What to do?
I sat on the couch with her on my lap  ,she is crying like a mess .
" mumma , what are we going to do now ??"
I cupped her face to wipe her tears before kissing her cheek.
I signaled her not to cry by shaking my head as no . I am here na. Why should my baby worry about it. I will think about it.
" Are we going to make cake " She asked.
But, bad idea. Practically it's not possible.
I don't have time to bake it, neither I can order same cake .
Right now all I can do is adjust. I need to adjust with any random cake  .
I need to order another cake  as soon as possible . It will take max thirty minutes get delivered  . This is the last option.
Yes I am bit disappointed because of this. It hurts when things don't happen as we planned. But feeling sad is not a solution.

Aditya  pov

I pressed the door bell for the fifth time now and still didn't get response.
Is she sleeping like yesterday .
What's wrong with her ?
isn't she well ?
Yesterday, We had not talked as much as we usually do . She must be sick . How she could be so irresponsible about herself. She takes care of us but always forget about herself. That's not good.
I opened the door with keys, and what the hell? There is no light in here. What is this now.
" Anshika !!!"
I called out her name to know if she is here. I'm so stupid, damn it ,even if she is here she can't respond . I can't see in dark either.
" Adhya !!! Baby where are you ?" I didn't get the respond .
They both must be sleeping. With the same thought I only walked two steps further before I flinched.
I flinched at sudden shouting and  stepped back. Out of sudden, lights flicked on.
" Surprise!!!!! ”
I heard Adhya and Rashmi screaming. And I put my hand on my chest before heaving a sigh.
Oh god!!!
That's inhumane. Who scare people like that.
I rubbed my hand over my chest before I can process what's happening.
" What surprise!!! ”
I asked looking at three ladies in front of me. Adhya standing first and on her left side Anshika was there . On her right side Rashmi.
" Happy birthday dadda!! ” screamed the little one.
What birthday??
I scanned the room and my eyes sparkled in amazement. Beautiful.
I saw it was all decorated beautifully. But why?
Happy birthday Adi. I read.
What??
These guys must be misunderstood, it's not my birthday today. I glanced at my smart watch to check the date and fuck....
They are right, I am the one who is being fool here.
It's really my birthday.

Oh god how can I forget about it.
" It's my birthday!! ” I chuckled.

Anshika

My heart flustered at his cute reaction.
" It's my birthday " The way his lips curved in smile while saying that. Oh my poor heart.
he laughed
" Oh my god!! It's really my birthday!! ” he repeated. I saw his eyes shining with amazement.
He lifted Adhya in arms and kissed her cheeks "thank you baby. "
She giggled in his arms and kissed his forehead.
He walked to me with a smile.
" Thank you for this! " He gave me a side hug.
I blinked my eyes in assurance. He doesn't need to thank me. That's something bare minimum I can do for him. Because I love him.

" Happy birthday” said Rashmi with a nervous smile.
Tension between them was same as before. But this needs to be broken. I know he doesn't have any other friends than her. And everyone needs someone . I know they both wants to sort it out but their ego is main problem.

To my surprise he gave her a side hug and she smiled, with her usual charm.
" Thank you!! ”

He kept Adhya down and smiled at her nervously.
" Well I am sorry as well, for my previous behavior!! ” he said casually .
" Oh really!! " She said shocked.
" I mean isn't that too fast for you to already forgive me and even you are asking for apology. I mean it's.....it's dreamy."
His guilt vanished and it was replaced by annoyance.
He rolled his eyes.
" is it a wrong to apologize? "
" I didn't say that, even I was apologizing from the start but it was just your ego what stopped you. "
" Fine! " He sighed.
" But this coldness needs to halt. And I hate to admit but I also can't survive being friendless!! " He said.
I laughed and so did she.
"  bold of you to assume you are my friend!! "
Oh god.
Both of them are so cocky.
I noticed irritation on his forehead.
" See!! " I pointed a finger at her but don't know what to say. He just sighed.
" What?? I am bratty, I am idiot, how can I be your friend "
"this, this attitude of yours.... " He scoffed dramatically.
" I am telling you Rashmi, this won't take you anywhere!! "
She was about to say something but she was cut off by a third voice.
" But I want to take my birthday boy to cut the cake!! " Said Adhya pulling his fingers with her small hand.
" Is there anything you guys can do without fighting with each other!! " She whined . Poor her. She always have to suffer between them.
