The alarm clock woke me with its insistent beeping. I groaned, silenced it, and reluctantly got out of bed, feeling the cool floor beneath my feet. Another day of routines and responsibilities awaited.
I quickly put on my workout gear, grabbed a towel, and headed to the home gym. The familiar scent of sweat and rubber greeted me as I began my workout, each movement focused and deliberate.
An hour later, drenched in sweat but energised, I stepped outside, the cool morning air reviving me. Back in the house, I entered the dining room to find my family gathered around the table, the aroma of coffee and breakfast filling the air.
"Good morning, everyone," I greeted, taking my seat among Dadu, Dadi, Dad, Mom, Choti Maa, Chote Papa, Aarohi, and Yash.
"Good morning, beta," Mom smiled, placing a plate of toast and eggs in front of me.
"Thanks, Mom," I replied, already hungry after my workout.
Aarohi and Yash were debating over the last piece of chocolate.
"Aarohi, tum hamesha se last piece mangti ho!" Yash exclaimed.
"Aur tu hamesha mujhe chhota piece de deta hai, Yash!" Aarohi shot back.
"Arre, breakfast time pe ladai mat karo. Dono barabar piece le lo!" I intervened.
Aarohi pouted, "Lekin Yash kabhi mujhe barabar piece nahi deta."
Yash rolled his eyes. "That's not true, Aarohi."
I smirked, "Agar tu barabar piece nahi degi, toh agle mahine ki sari chocolates Yash ke naam ho jayengi."
Reluctantly, Aarohi broke the chocolate into two equal pieces.
Mom walked over, "Waah, aaj toh adalat ka faisla ho gaya! Next time, main judge banungi."
Both Aarohi and Yash laughed.
Choti Maa added, "Darsh beta, tu bhi dekhna ki in dono ko party mein kaise sambhalte hain!"
I chuckled, "Choti Maa, don't worry. I'll make sure they behave tonight."
Amidst the laughter and aroma of breakfast, the warm atmosphere highlighted our family bonds.
"Beta, aaj ke liye tayyari ho gayi hai?" Mom asked.
"Haan, Mom. Sab kuch ready hai. Sirf kuch chhoti moti cheezein baaki hain," I replied.
"Tum log aaj kitne baje ghar aaoge?" Dadi inquired.
"Main shaam ko 6 baje tak ghar aa jaunga, Dadi," I assured her.
After breakfast, I took a quick shower, feeling refreshed. Stepping out, Mom greeted me with a smile. "Beta, make sure to come home early tonight. We'll all be eagerly waiting for you," she reminded.
"I will, Mom," I assured her, giving a quick hug before heading out, ready for the day.
I drove to my office, Rawat's Elite Estates Enterprises. My PA, Arjun, greeted me with the schedule.
