Ruhanika

We all sat down and the maids brought food. Maa served Papa and Dadi served Dadu while all the others served themselves. Manyu motioned me to come down, and then whispered in my ear, "Didi, can we please eat on one plate I want you to feed me please." Seeing his puppy eyes and pouty face, I gave in and said, "Sure!"

Just as I was about to serve myself and Manyu, I noticed that Ansh had already started serving some Butter Paneer Masala and Naan on my plate. He then looked towards me and sensing my questioning gaze said, "I had always wished that I would be the one to serve you your food, twinny." I just passed him a smile tore small bites and fed Manyu.

"Ruhi beta, don't just focus on making Abhi eat. Eat something yourself too."

"Maa, I will eat it na. Don't fret over me." As soon as I said this, her eyes filled with tears. Did I say something wrong? I looked around to see that everyone was staring at me. This made me slightly uncomfortable. Ansh then leaned to my side and whispered in my ear, "Don't worry twinny, it's just that everyone including Mom was surprised to see that you had called her maa." I just nodded and went back to feeding Manyu.

After a while, he was done with his dinner, so Maa offered to take him with her so that I could have my dinner. As soon as all of us had completed our dinner, papa said, "Come on Anika, I will take you to your room so that you can rest."

Finally, I thought. Although I really loved my family but it was getting hard for me to comprehend all that had happened since morning.

Papa started walking towards the stairs and I also followed him. We reached the first floor and Papa said, "Anika, the rooms of all the family members are on this floor while the second floor has some guest rooms and all the other entertainment rooms." What does he mean by entertainment rooms? He continued, "The third floor has all the offices."

He then opened the door of my room and I was mesmerized seeing it. It was painted with soft colors and had a modern yet ethnic vibe to it. I went inside the room and noticed that it had three more doors. The room had a vanity table along with a cozy bed. Moreover, it also had a study table which is the dream of every studious student. I was elated to see it. I went towards one of the doors and opened it to see a lavish bathroom. The other door consisted of an equally luxurious walk-in closet that made me shocked because I hadn't even seen a walk-in closet in my whole 16 years of life. The last door consisted of a balcony that had a swing as well as a cozy-looking couch along with some plants. Looks like this gonna be my favorite place!

As soon as I finished exploring my room, I looked towards my papa who was still standing there. He then came towards me, cupped my face, and said, "Did you like the room baby? If you don't, then we can always change it according to your wishes Anika."

"Change it! I don't want to change anything, Papa. It is very beautiful. I really loved this room. Thank you for all that you have done for me." I said the last line feeling grateful that he had taken me in and provided me with a shelter and a family that loved me otherwise I would still be living with my mother who as usual would be taunting me and doting Prisha.

"Don't say thank you, Anika. We have been waiting for you to return back for more than a decade. I still remember how happy everyone was when you were born. For the past 7 generations, there were only boys in our family. So, imagine my surprise when I got to know that god had gifted me with a princess. You are the first girl born in our family in 7 generations Anika. Everyone in our family adored you. Our life was blissful for the 2 years we had you. But then, that vile woman took you. All of us were devastated. Now, when we have finally gotten you after all these years, none of us would leave a chance to spoil you. So, get used to it, baby." He said the last line playfully making me let out a giggle.

His eyes softened and then he said, "Let's get my little Anika tucked in the bed." I nodded and went into the closet to change my clothes. Then, I lay down on the bed and he put the covers over me. He sat down beside me and started running his fingers in my hair. All the tension left my body and I relaxed.

After a while, he said, "Anika, I know that everyone here will treat you nicely but still if anyone causes you even a little bit of discomfort, then you are supposed to tell me, alright princess. Also, I just wanted to tell you that from tomorrow every member of our family will be given 5 to spend with you so that you can bond with everyone and this will continue until your school starts."

This is a good idea! I will be able to bond with everyone in my family and then my wish of getting a family that will love me will be fulfilled. But wait, did he say school?

"When am I starting my school?" I questioned excitedly.

"Well, you will be enrolled in the school in which Arhaan, Armaan, and Rudraansh study, and their summer vacations will be starting in a few days, so you will start your school after the summer vacations." Papa then got up, turned off the lights, and went out of the room not before dropping a kiss on my forehead.

I closed my eyes and waited for sleep to engulf me as tomorrow would be like a new beginning for me. The only thought in my head was that,

It is nice to be cared for!
