The next day, Rahul decided not to send Ania to school. She was sleeping peacefully while the weather was cloudy. Nisha and Divya had to go to the market to buy some stuff, so they went after breakfast. Raghav, Aditya, Rahul, and Avi were in the office. It was only Ania and Aarav at home. Aarav had to prepare for a test, so he was in his room, and Ania was still asleep in her room. It was around 10:30 now.
Aarav got up knowing she might still be sleeping. He went to her room after knocking twice.
"Anu get up" he said, opening the blinds and letting the light come in but it was still dark because of the cloudy weather.
"Sone do" she muttered, turning to the other side.
"Utho Ania" he said softly, and she ignored him cuddling her teddy bear.
"Last time bol raha hoon main" he said in a serious tone.
"Kia hogaya?" she whined, sitting up in bed.
"Time dekho beta" he sat on the edge of the bed.
"Nahi jana school" she pouted.
"School ka time bhee nikal gaya madam. It's 11" he said and she picked up her phone to check the time.
"Main school nahi gayi?" she looked at him with wide eyes.
"Nahi" he replied.
"Ab jao, fresh ho jao aur nashta karo aake" he added while getting up and leaving the room, not before ruffling her hair.
She took a shower and went downstairs.
"Table pe jao nashta lagwa dia hai," Aarav said as he saw her.
"Mama kahan hain?" she asked.
"Gayi hui hain bari mama ke sath" he replied.
"Kab gayin?" she asked.
"Abhi he gayi theen thori der pehle" Aarav replied, and she made a sad face and then went to have breakfast.
Once she was done, she came to Aarav.
"Bahar chali jaon?" she asked Aarav.
"Nahi" he replied, scrolling on his phone.
"Please bhai" she gave him the best puppy eyes to melt him and he shook his head.
"Jao books leke aao" he said, and she hit him on his shoulder.
"Kia masla hai" he hissed.
"Bahar jana hai mujhe" she said stubbornly.
"Mana kar dia na aik dafa, tumhe samaj nahi aata" he glared at her.
"Main toh jaon gi" she got up.
"Ania mosam dekha hai tumne? Baarish hone wali hai. Chup chap ghar main betho. Aik jagah tik ke nahi beth sakti na tum" he scolded.
"Brothers are so boring. I hate you" she stomped her feet annoyed.
"Mera sar mat khao. Mera kal paper hai. 2 minute sakoon se sans lene dogi?" he had been studying since morning and now he was in the lounge taking a break, whereas his sister was driving him crazy.
"Haan toh isliye toh bol rahi hoon na bahar chalte hain, walk karke aajain gay, please na Aarav pleasee" her tone was sweet this time.
"Utho" he finally got up, and she grinned.
"Ap ghar pe rahain if you want to rest. Main khud chali jaon gi" she said.
"Akele nahi jane doonga. Chalna hai toh chalo, warna betho ghar pe" Aarav glared at her, and she nodded, making a face.
