"Aaru Aaru" Aarchi who was sleeping peacefully in her room on her stomach woke up at the loud bangs on the bedroom door.

She rushed to wear her robe and opened the door worried about what happened at middle of the night.

"Bhabhi?" Aarchi opened the door to see Maitri standing at the door looking nervous and worried.

"Are you okay? Is bhaiyu fine?" Aarchi asked tightening the two ends of the belt on her waist.

"Come with me" Maitri held her hand and pulled her to the living room. Aarchi could feel tears well up in her eyes as she thought of all the wrong things. Just when she reached the end of the staircase, she felt Maitri moving away from her.

"Bhabhi? You are scaring me now. What's going on?" Aarchi looked around in the dark living room trying to find Maitri.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!" Suddenly the lights switched on and her both brothers burst the party popper on her head causing her to flinch in fear.

"Happy birthday princess" Rishav hugged Aarchi tightly kissing her head as Aarchi hugged him back wiping her tears. She bent down to touch his feet but Rishav stopped her and hugged her again.

"She's my daughter too Rish" Kaira said to Rishav asking him to leave Aarchi so she could wish her daughter.

"She's jealous" Rishav said leaving Aarchi and whispering in her ear making Aarchi giggle.

"Whatever he said, same pinch" Kaira said hugging her little princess and wishing her.

"Happy birthday oldie. In a few years you'll be walking with a stick and a fake pair of dentures" Aryaman hugged Aarchi teasing her for growing old.

"Mummaaa" Aarchi hit Aryaman's chest and looked at Kaira complainigly.

"Aryuuu. Its her birthday" Kaira said sternly making Aryaman roll his eyes.

"Come here you old hag. Let me wish you nicely" Aviraj said pulling Aarchi towards him and flicked her forehead. Aarchi looked at him shocked and immediately engaged in a fight with Aviraj.

"Enough!" Maitri seperated the two angrily.

"Its her birthday today, spare your fights for today atleast" She scolded both Aryaman and Aviraj holding Aarchi close to her.

"Thank you bhabhi" Aarchi hugged Maitri looking at her brothers with a smirk.

"Come lets cut cake" She said pulling Aarchi to the centre of the living room where they had set up all the decorations.

Everyone sang the birthday song as she cut the cake while Aviraj took pictures of her so she could post it on her instagram account.

Aarchi gave a piece of cake to both Rishav and Kaira simultaneously who fed her lovingly before taking a bite of it. Rishav closed Aarchi's eyes as Kaira got her gift.

"Happy birthday darling" Kaira placed the gift in her hands as Aarchih tore the wrapping paper excitedly.

"Guitar!!!" She exclaimed hugging both RIshav and Kaira thanking them profusely.

"Its customised with my name" She ran her fingers over the guitar taking in the smoothness of its surface.

"Our turn our turn" Maitri said excitedly. Aryaman placed his hand on her waist smiling lovingly to his wife. Aryaman handed Aarchi a paperbag as the couple looked at her excitedly for her reaction. She opened the bag and looked at them in surprise.
