Embracing The Unplanned

74.Dadu

Soon enough everyone wandered off towards their rooms because there was still time for lunch and because it was a holiday for all of them they all decided to take rest.

Hriday had been on night duty the last night so he immediately went to bed as soon as he entered the room along with Aayat.

Aayat let him be and instead woke up Iti because she was still sleeping,she needed to have her breakfast and have a bath too.

After lunch,

After a delicious lunch which consisted of chicken biryani,the younger Sehgal's all sat in the living room on the sofa's along with the elder Sehgal's,Bela had left for her Art Gallery again because she had some work.

"Movie dekhe?"Abhimanyu asked and Kiyaan and Rishi nodded at once.

"Pr ek child friendly movie dekhni padegi,Iti kese dekhegi wrna?"Rishi said.

"Cartoon movie dekhe?"Rishi suggested.

"Nhi,dadu aur chote dadu ko cartoon kaha pasand h"Kiyan said.

"Child friendly movie kya hoti h?"Shivansh asked.

"Gadhe under 18 wali uska matlab h!"Aashi said smacking Shivansh on the back of his head which was her favourite thing to do him.

"Dadu she is starting it now"Shivansh said looking at Andy.

"Shut up for once"Andy said and Shivansh pouted.

"I think yeh wali acchi rahegi!meri favourite h yeh!"Kiyan said.

"Konsi?"Aashi asked.

"Bhootnath!"Kiyan said and even Aashi and Shivansh smiled hearing that,it was a childhood classic for them as well.

"Aapne dekhi h yeh Hriday??humne bht dekhi h yeh bachpan mein!"Aayat said looking at Hriday who shared the same enthusiasm as her.

Kiyan and Rishi made all the arrangements and turned the huge TV screen towards the couches so that they could all see the movie.

"Papa,hume unke saath bethna h"Iti said looking at Andy who immediately called her to him and settled her beside him on his recliner.

Hriday smiled seeing that,finally Iti was getting comfortable with the family members.

Hriday and Aayat also settled on one of the sofas which had leg recliners making it all the more comfortable.

When everyone had settled down they played the movie.

"Yeh bhooth toh baat kr rahe h papa"Hriday could hear Iti say from beside Andy.

"Bhooth bolte h!"Aashi said and Iti looked at Andy for confirmation.

"Bhooth vooth kuch nhi hota h"Andy said.

"Angels hote h?"Iti asked as that was what the actor has said in the movie.

"Nhi,aisa kuch nhi hota h,logo ko darane ke liye bolte h aisa sirf"Andy said and Iti nodded her head at that.

"Bed monsters hote h pr!"Iti said and Andy smiled and nodded.

"Sure"Andy said.

The whole movie everyone either laughed because of the movie or because of Iti's innocent questions.

But when it came towards the end,Aayat could hear sniffing and she knew it was Hriday,she stared at his face as he wiped his tears immediately.

As Hriday saw the lil boy shouting for his Bhoothnath to return to him who was like a grandfather figure for him,he couldn't help his tears,the song that played in the background made him more emotional,it all made him remember  his dadu...his beloved dadu who was no more and just like the lil boy who had lost his bhootnath,his angel,Hriday too had lost his dadu,his angel in disguise!
