Different shades of Surbhi.

Part 46

Evening.
Storey flat.
Apartment.
Aruna arrives and is surprised to see Anika at home.....this hour.... because....she usually.... doesn't....come at this time.
"Dear.....you're here?" Aruna asked confused.
"Yes.... grandma....I requested.....an early leave today..... because....I got a cold....and it was getting unbearable....at work," Anika explained.
"Ooh....sorry....to hear about that....but don't worry.....I'll make you....soup....that will get rid of your cold...in a jiffy...so....you just sit and relax.... because.... today.....I'll be the one... serving you," Aruna replied.
Anika nod in agreement.

Mumbai.
Kapoor mansion.
A car is seen parked( Bani's car).
She goes to inside and meets Jia.
"Dear....thank goodness your safe....I was getting.... worried....what if something.... terrible were to happen to you," Jia said apprehensive.
"Haven't....I made clear to you....you and I don't share a relationship.... because....you're just our nanny.....Ishani....might treat you as family....but don't expect that from...me in return....do you understand....or you want me to write it for," Bani replied.
"Yes....I completely understand," Jia replied.
"Good....now....tell...me where are my parents?" Bani asked.
"Well.....sir.....has gone for a business trip....outside the country...while....ma'am is in night shift.... anything else.... ma'am," Jia explained.
"No.... that's all.... hold on a minute.... please send....some servants....to take away my shopping....inside...that would be all," Bani replied.
"I'll take my leave," Jia added leaving.
Bani too left to go to her room.

Meanwhile.
Ishani's room.
She couldn't help smiling.... holding the rose flower in her hand.
Flashback shows.
Ishani arrives at her desk.
She opens her book and sees a rose flower and a note and reads.
"Here's something special to spice and make your day,"
From Sid.

While she's lost in her world....Bani finds her staring into space and goes to her room.

Hearing her footsteps...she decides to hide the rose.

"Hi sister long time no see," Bani said.

"Bani.....just cut to the chase....what are you doing here?" Ishani asked.

"Relax....sister.....sisters don't hide anything from one another......then why are doing so....after all....am your flesh and blood," Bani replied.

"What are you insulating?" Ishani asked.

"Rumors have being going on...that you and that Dr....what's his name.....yeah....Sid....are dating....come on....Ishani....what a let down....sister.....he's net worth from what I have....is just a mere million...you want to spend time with....such a person....who won't give up....a luxurious life," Bani replied.

She thought her words....may....maybe....have a negative effect on her....but did it really?

"Sorry to disappoint you.....Bani....but I and Sid are just friends....but....can to think of it....if I was dating...him...so what...if he isn't that rich....but we're happy....most especially....me.....and thank you...you've made me realize today...that I actually love him....how about you.....yes....you might have all the luxuries....in the world....but the question...is....are you really happy.....you lost such a gem.... because....of luxury......now I'll give you room...to give it all a thought....the other day....you told me to close the door behind....me... today....I'll ask you to do the same... because....I have to work up early tomorrow," Ishani replied.

She left and closed the door and went to her room.

Bani's room.
She sits down...thinking what Ishani just said.
"What does she know....am happy..... right...this is all I ever wanted and dreamed of," Bani said to herself.
Then servants come in her room.
"Where should we put these bags?"one of the maid asked.
"Just on the table....thanks...you may now leave," Bani replied.
After putting the bags...on the table they left.
She stands up because she wants to go and take a shower.
She goes to her wardrobe....she takes away her towel...but...then....a box drops on her feet....she bends down to pick it up.
(It's her and Shivaay's memories together)
She takes the pictures one by one.
From the pictures they looked happy.
"We were so happy...then," Bani said to herself.
Tears rolling down her cheeks....but she wiped them.
Although she didn't want to admit it...he missed him a lot....truly....you never know the value of somebody.....until that person leaves.
She then placed the pictures on the box and returned it to her wardrobe.
"I should get rid of  that box....first thing in the morning," Bani said to herself.
She then went and took a bath and wore her night dress and went to asleep.... although she tried to sleep...those memories of her and Shivaay....kept rewinding on her mind...over and over.
