Rastogi Mansion

Everyone in the house was excited as the Khanna family was about to come any time. Suma ji and Anusuya ji prepared amazing food, the whole house had a different sparkle today.

"Mumma can I go get a shower and dress up or do you want me to stand like this only in front of them."
"Annu beta please take flowers from Shamu kaka and put them in all the vases. This is your last work pakka."
"Mumma you have been saying this for the past 1 hour now."

Anika took the flowers and decorated the vases with them.
Everyone was waiting when they heard a car pull over in their driveway. The Khannas had arrived.

"Namaste Rudraksh ji... Namaste welcome" Subhash ji welcomed everyone.
"Namaste Subhash ji, how are you?"
"I am good Rudraksh ji, please have a seat."
Everyone sat together in the living room.
"It is so good to see you all" Suma ji expressed.
"Same here Suma." Maya ji replied.
"Here meet my brother Shankar, his wife Bhavani. And she is my mother Shushila and my father Mahendra."

Everyone from the Rastogi family greeted them with great respect.

"Finally I also have someone to talk with me." Anika's dadi spoke.
"Yes yes, we will give you company."
Everyone was happy seeing the elders already getting along.

"You have met my brother right, Ramesh Bhaiya, his wife Anusuya, and their daughter Anamika she got married 4 years ago, he is her husband and one of our best lawyers Kabir Rajvanshi."
Kabir and Anamika bowed to everyone.

"Everyone please come the breakfast is ready." Anusuya informed.
"Whole day we will be here don't worry."
"I am telling you Maya Bhabhi stay here with us for a few days."
Everyone was at the dining table having breakfast when Anika came down.
"Hi Maya aunty... Namaste everyone."
"you only saw your Maya aunty first right" Rudraksh ji teased Anika.
"No uncle it's just that..."
"I am her favorite right Annu." Maya ji completed Anika's sentence.
"That day also first she came and told us about Maya Bhabhi only."
"Is it Annu?"

Anika was too shy to talk so she hugged her favorite Maya aunty and sat for breakfast. Soon the breakfast was over everybody again came back to the living room.

"Maya you brought something for your Anika right."
"oh yes. Here you go Annu this is for you." Maya ji said handing 3 boxes of her favorite cholates and few skin care items from her favorite brand.
"Omg aunty why did you bring so much. I can't take this all."
"Oh you have become that old that you are not accepting the gifts given by your Maya aunty or you didn't like them."
"No no Aunty I loved them but this so much. Thank you so much you are the sweetest." Anika and Maya ji's bonding was so sweet it didn't feel like they were meeting after so long.
"I asked Priyanka what should I get you when she gave the idea of skin care. She said she got to know about your skin care collection from your social media."
"That is so sweet and thoughtful of you Bhabhi. Our Annu loves skin care." Anusuya added.
