3rd person's pov:

The entire clan of Rathores was chattering in the hall. Sanjay (Ekansh's father), Suhasini (Ekansh's mother), Arnav and Kritika (brother and his wife), Aditya and Ishaan (brothers), and Aryan (his nephew) - everyone was busy gossiping about something while his sight saw his wife carrying a cup of masala tea; the aroma of ginger was filling the air.

He was a coffee person, but one day he tasted tea, and now it was his unwanted favorite.

"I missed this tea of yours, beta," said Sanjay, while sipping his chai (tea).

Though he (sanjay rathore) was not much of a speaker, he was a foodie. Actually, everyone in family was, but he was the one who couldn't stop himself. And Mishti, also being a foodie and a cooking lover, was his favorite when it came to food.

When they saw Ekansh, they started getting carried away with conversations. Do families need topics? He greedily took the cup from the tray making mishti smile, "main chai nahi pita(i don't drink tea)"said a wise man once upoon a time. And the hall became replacement of dining table for a moment. Money or not, some things never change.

"Umm, waah bhabhi, maza aa gaya," Ishaan said, attacking another stuffed parantha. (It's enjoyable.)

"Laddoo ladoo," a small voice grabbed their attention. The orange ball filled with the sweetness of dry fruits and sugar attracted Aryan a lot, just like flowers to a bee.

"No, you already ate two. Dant sad jayenge," said Kritika, which resulted in Aryan's face turning grumpy. (Your teeth will rot.)

He ignored his mother and walked in clumsy, wobbling steps. His fingers attacked the laddoos and broke them in a tight fist when he saw his mother rushing towards him.

"Khane do, ek aur se kuch nahi hoga," Aryan's lips curved into a smile when he saw his grandmother, aka Dadi, taking his side. Dadi's (grandmas) are the best. (Let him eat, one more won't affect his health.)

That was the final clue for Kritika. After all, she couldn't deny her mother-in-law's order. She gave aryan a angry eye look, which was ignored by this little brave men.She looked at her husband for help, Arnav, who didn't speak anything. Arnav never interferes in any matter. He was the quiet one. While Aditya was a rebel and Ishaan was a fun-loving person, he was the naughtiest.

When Mishti saw Kritika's helpless face, she decided to divert Aryan. "Aru, do you know I make chakris (spiral snacks)? Do you want to eat them? Also, I have one more laddoo."

Mishti took Aryan a little bit away and tried to convince his stubborn mind. His childish mind paused, and greediness for another laddoo pushed him into a trap. He nodded, and Mishti gave him her fingers, which he gladly held.

She made him sat on kitchen platform and took the motichur laddoo out of his hand, replacing it with a healthy laddoo of churma made with jaggery, which was prepared for her father-in-law. With a laddoo in one hand and a chakri in another, Aryan rushed back to the hall to show off his delicacies to others (specially ishaan). "Dekhoo" (look)", he said while he munched on namkeen.

"Aryaan, who gave you the laddoo?" enquired Kritika, obvious to the answer.

"Badi mumma"
