"Here you go kids, ice cream!!! yay!!" I gave the ice creams to the kids at the orphanage.

This orphanage is my Grandmom's heart, she and her best friend Urmila had started together.

Urmila Vadhera aunty is the grand mother of the devil, ugh not even a single day I can go without thinking about that assh*le !! Not in a lovey dove way but in a hate way.

My grand mother and Urmila aunty are both orphans, they grew up together but they never let this tag of being an orphan stop them. They studied very hard in school and both got scholarships to the college, yet going to college in their time for girls was a very big thing but never the less they achieved the impossible.

That is where they met their husbands and fell in love. Luckily for them their families accepted them. Both the women opened this orphanage and both the men started their own company. After so many years, I have the privilege to work in that company. My mom used to handle this orphanage with my aunts accompanied by Mrs. Pooja Vadhera but now it's just them.

All the kids came running towards me, hearing that I had ice cream, they were just shoo cute bundles of joy, after my moms death I started coming here too. Before loosing  my parents I was never so serious but then I realized that life is very unexpected.

"Thank You didi" all the kids said to me.

I was walking towards the office of the orphanage to meet the caretaker when I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned too see Mrs. Pooja Vadhera.

I never disliked her, she was friends with my mom and my aunts.

"Hello aunty"

"Hello beta" she hugged me and I hugged her back. It was so awkward, did she know what her son had done? I am sure if she knew then she wouldn't so happy.

"So beta its been a very long time. Where were you all these months? I know that you have no reason to come visit me after all you are not friends with any of my kids and also the business has drifted the two families apart." she seemed genuinely sad "But beta, I always liked all of you kids, your aunts and I have also not met in a long time, I miss you all."

"Aunty, I am sorry. Its just that I just finished my degree a year ago and now the past year has been all about work for me. No matter the business differences, I know you have always loved us and I am sure that my aunts also feel the same way."

" I don't know what is going on in Vivan's mind, since his father handed all the companies to him, he has become very arrogant. Only if his father didn't have the accident..." she suddenly stopped with tears in her eyes.

" Accident? Uncle ? Aunty what accident, what are you talking about?" I have hardly met uncle, yes you could say I haven't seen him for years.

"Beta its nothing, my tongue just slipped. Don't take me seriously. Ok I have to go back home Misha but I hope to be in touch with you and if your aunts can forgive my son, then maybe I'll see them soon." she sounded sad. "It was very nice to see you Misha, bye"

"Bye aunty"

As I stared at her retreating figure, I knew that she was hiding something.
