Kavin Arts and Magic Studio

Just as the name suggests, the studio is a haven of beauty. Opening the gate reveals a garden filled with vibrant flowers of every color imaginable. Roses and jasmine fill the air with their fragrance, and amidst this colorful scene, a large poster of "Kavin Kashyap" stands prominently. Yes, this studio belongs to Kavin, who stands covered in paint from head to toe, some of it dried. He's engrossed in painting, finding immense peace in this activity, which is why he spends more time here than at home. Sometimes, he stays for two or three days straight, forcing Leo to come and drag him home. A famous artist and a flower lover, Kavin often seeks inspiration among the flowers, just like he is now.

Currently, his painting heavily features flowers and the subject he's painting. There's only a little work left because Kavin started as soon as he arrived, despite the doctor advising him to rest after a checkup. But instead of resting, he immersed himself in his work, smiling as he paints. The girl posing for the painting complains,

"Is it done yet? My back is hurting."

"Madam, I told you I could work from a photo, but you insisted on posing. Now bear the consequences," Kavin responds with a smile.

(Just then, Kavin's manager speaks up.)

"Sir, please take a break. If Leo finds out, I'll never get a job anywhere again."

"Relax, bro. Your descendants will all work for me," Kavin jokes, flashing a grin.

The manager gives him a worried look and steps back, prompting the girl to ask,

"Did you get hurt?"

"Don't move," Kavin says seriously.

The girl pouts but then smiles and replies,

"Alright, I'll stay put and not move at all."

Kavin focuses back on the painting, smiling at her comment. After a while, he finally puts the brush down, cleans himself up, and quickly joins the girl, gently taking her hand and leading her to his office. He seats her on the sofa and asks,

"Why did you come here directly from the airport?"

"I needed to see you quickly," she replies with sparkling eyes.

Kavin pats her head and says,

"You should have informed me that you were coming, Jasmine."

"Then it wouldn't have been a surprise," she says with a childlike grin.

Kavin lightly taps her head, calling her "naughty" before telling her to sit while he heads to the washroom. After he leaves, Jasmine stands and starts admiring the paintings her brother has made.

About Jasmine:

[ This is Jasmine Kashyap, the younger sister of Leo and Kavin. She's 23 years old and the darling of the family. She went to Italy for college after finishing school and has just returned to India today, surprising everyone. She's the daughter of Mr. Piyush and Mrs. Divya Kashyap. Like her mother, she enjoys shopping, which is typical of most girls. Though a bit mischievous, she's very innocent. If someone tells her something, she tends to believe it, which Leo doesn't like. He always tries to make her cautious because he worries someone might take advantage of her innocence, especially if they have a grudge against him. Everyone calls her " meen," and she loves reading books, often found surrounded by them. ]

A little while later, Kavin, now freshened up, returns from the washroom and sees Jasmine quietly sitting and looking around. He approaches her, folding his arms with a smirk, and asks,

"So, any boyfriend?"

"I didn't like any of them, but they were all very nice," she says to him with great affection.

"What do you mean you didn't like any of them, but they were all nice? (laughing) Or did they run away after seeing a delicate flower like you?" Kavin laughs.

"Why are you making fun of me? I really didn't like anyone," she says, pouting with innocence.

Seeing her like this, Kavin rubs his forehead, moves closer, hugs her, and then sits in front of her, holding her hand, saying,

"MY LADY, you speak so sweetly that all my pain disappears. (looking up) You are very precious to us. I don't understand how to protect you from the world's eyes...(taking a deep breath) Sometimes I fear that someone might take advantage of your innocence."

In this happy moment, hearing Kavin's words, Jasmin starts to pinch both his cheeks and says,

"Oh brother... you and big brother really worry too much about me. Honestly (pushing him away), you two need to find girls for yourselves, or else my life will become unbearable. Ugh, I'm going straight home and telling dad and mom to start looking for girls for you two because (laughing) you two won't even attract a crow, otherwise, I'll find two sisters-in-law myself just like me," Jasmine says, standing up with a pout.

Kavin also stands up, signals something to the manager, then lovingly looks at Jasmin, folds his arms, and says,

"My lady... I think you are planning to bring chaos into the house again. (laughing) But there hasn't been a storm on earth yet, and don't you dare cause one, so shhhh, stay quiet now. (holding her hand) The painting will reach home tomorrow, but for now, we should head home because mom is calling me right now. (smiling) And let's surprise everyone with your arrival, okay?" he says.

"It will be so much fun (chirping), I'm so excited, brother."

"Me too."

With this, Kavin takes his chirping sister out of the studio and soon they get into the car. As he starts the car, his phone rings, making him stop putting on the seatbelt, quickly attends the call seeing the name, and says,

"Mom, I'm just on my way... (but hearing what she says, he is shocked and loudly says) What?" He then throws the phone in front of him in frustration. This sudden outburst makes Jasmine jump and nervously ask,

"Bro... brother, what happened?"

"Everything's ruined," he says, hitting the steering wheel angrily and gripping it tightly.
