People call Kashmir the heaven on earth. And my story will also start from this heaven. I hope you all will like this story.

In Kashmir there was a beautiful 3 room house and a small garden in it. The sound of bells was heard loudly in that house along with the cooker's whistle and Gayatri mantra recitation.

|Om Bhurbhuvah Swah Tatsaviturvarenyam Bhargo Devasya Dheemahi Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat.

After reciting these mantras, Saachi slowly opened her eyes and seeing the idol of Shiv and Parvati in front of her, she bowed in front of them with folded hands with a small smile.

Saachi stood up from her place and opened the door of the garden and spread her hands, closed her eyes and welcomed the morning with her head held high.

"Saachi, bete, what are you doing, you will feel cold, come inside and close the door as well." Saachi heard her mother Unnati, looked at her traffic and then smiled at the rising sun.

"Good morning my first love..." Saachi shouted loudly and her voice echoed in the valleys of Kashmir.

This house was built in the middle of the mountains so there were not many houses here. Saachi used to come here every morning after getting dressed and praying to Shiv ji. She used to feel very relaxed here.

"Only Shiv ji knows when this girl will get some brain, come and have breakfast now, Saachi..." her mother called her and said while hitting her on the head.

"Oh our child, our doll queen, are you not afraid of the cold that you come to challenge it every morning..."

Saachi's father Laksh said and covered her with a shawl from behind and brought her inside while hugging her from the side.

"Oh, Baba, I am the daughter of a Major legal Advisor of India, how can anyone scare me like this...except your wife." Saachi said this while looking at Unnati who was staring at her. Laksh works as a legal advisor in a law firm in Kashmir.

"Maa, please don't look at me like that, I am scared." She hid her head in Laksh's chest while pretending to be innocent.

"Yes, yes, I know how scared you are of me. Now that you are done with father and daughter, come and have breakfast and go to work." Unnati said while looking at Saachi's drama.

“Let’s go or else your mom will snatch that breakfast from us.” Laksh said and entered the dining area with Saachi. Unnati served the hot aloo paratha.

“BTW Saachi, what about your last novel which you gave to the AS publishing house.” Laksh asked and ate his paratha.

“Baba, I tried to give them but you know Tahir. He was damn angry about that and then eventually as always I had to give my novel to his company as I can't win from this person.” Saachi shrugged.

“Tahir is not only your boss but your best friend too and I have already told you that you can't win from your stubborn best friend.” He said to which she nodded her head.

“Hmm are you guys missing me?” A manly voice came from the door of the dining room. They turned and saw a dashing personality who was standing in jeans, t-shirt and a leather jacket.

“Aree Tahir beta come have breakfast with us….” Unnati invited Tahir to them and served one more plate for him. He sat down on the chair near Saachi's chair.

“We were talking about you, Tahir.” Laksh said and initiated the conversation with him.

“And I am also here to have Aunty's hands for breakfast and complaining about Saachi. Uncle, did you know that she was about to go and give her new novel to the AS publishing house. Aree just asked her uncle what did I do to her that she was going to do this.” He said in a dramatic voice and wiped his fake tears.
