Author's pov

    When their flight landed Karan and Rishi came to pick them and were blown away by how similar Neha looks to Aisha... It was like Aisha herself was standing infront of them.

    All there attention diverted to Arisha and Karan instantly carried her and kissed her forehead.

   " My Angel... I missed you so much Mera baacha." He said.

   " Give my Angel to me... I too missed her." Rishi said and took Arisha and kissed her forehead.

    Neha smiled at how much they all love Arisha but still she was such calm and kind kid . Nobody would scold her but still she was so disciplined and mature at her age .

    " Mamu.. bade papa.. let's go home I want to meet Dadi and badi maa.." Arisha said and jumped back in Aryan's arm who hugged his cute daughter.

   Rishi and Karan smiled looking at them.

    " Umm... Ms this way." Karan said to Neha a bit hesitantly.

   " It's Neha.." she said with a smile and Karan almost thought he heard her say Aisha.

    They all settled in the car and drove to Singhania house..

   Jhanvi and Shrushti were already at the gate waiting for their arrival.

    Everyone stepped out and Arisha ran to her dadi who hugged her tightly in her arms and smothered her face with kisses... Shrushti saw Neha and looked at Rishi who just rubbed her shoulder.

     Arisha moved to her badi maa while Neha touched Jhanvi's feet , it was her subconscious action...

    Jhanvi held her shoulder and made her face her muttering some blessings but she failed to control her tears , Neha was taken aback and wipped Jhanvi's tears.

     " Aunty why are you crying..!?"

    " Oh don't worry Neha maa is just emotional to see Arisha back ." Rishi said wrapping his arms around Jhanvi's shoulder.

    Neha smiled at them while Aryan has already went to his room...

    " Let's go inside.." Shrushti said carrying Arisha in her arms.

   Everyone moved inside and Shrushti showed Neha and Ruhaan their room.

    Back In the living room Rishi told them to please not act oddly and make Neha feel uncomfortable...

     In the evening Aditi came directly to Singhanias house from her office to meet Arisha... She also met Neha and remained casual as she already talked with her through Jia.

     Arisha introduced her cousins to Ruhaan and the kids were getting along really well... As summer vacations had started Ashi and Karthik were staying in Singhanias house.

     Two days passed like that and Neha was really enjoying her time and it was great to live with such an amazing and kind family...

    Jhanvi was treating her like her own daughter , Rishi and Karan were like big brothers to her , Shrushti and Aditi were her big sisters and treated her lovingly also the kids loved her alot especially Arisha . She also loves to spend her time with her....

    The only person she hardly saw was Aryan Singhania... He lives on second floor where only Jhanvi , Arisha and two servants go usually. He keeps to himself and never joined them for breakfast or dinner in this days...

     Aryan was trying to reduce his alcohol consumption but ended up drinking a bit more every night and returned home late like before... Jhanvi just sighed at her son's condition. Arisha also told her dadda to not drink and he promised her to stop very soon .
