Mahdia adjusted dupatta of her emerald green and yellow Anarkali and walked into the kitchen.

Thankfully the Anarkali was long enough to hide her sneakers.

'Good morning.... mom.' She greeted her mother-in-law. She felt little awkward with the new relationships. Mrs. Malik looked at her and smiled brightly.

'Arey Beta, why did you come in the kitchen. Today is your first day here, you rest.' She said warmly. Mahdia is relieved feeling the positive vibes from her mother-in-law.

'I will ask the butlers to plate breakfast for you and Ahyan.' She said turning around, she placed a tea cup on a tray and called for a butler.

'Give this tea to Saheb.' She ordered.

The butler nodded, as he was about to pick up the tray, Mahdia interrupted.

'Mom, if I may? I will take tea for Dad.' Mrs. Malik's smile faded as she said this.

Mahdia looked hopefully at Mrs. Malik, she looked reluctant. Mahdia extended her hand and held her hand, 'Mom, I will make something sweet for Dad as well. I am good in baking. You will see he will be super impressed.' Mahdia said with a smile. Mrs. Malik smiled relieved.

Ajmal the butler, took the tea tray while Mahdia tied her dupatta in a knot, her hair in a quick bun, and tying an apron around her waist she got to work. She smiled as she made her favourite French sweets.

Mrs. Malik watched her, already impressed.

Ahyan sat at the breakfast table, Mariam already sitting there poking an oil soaked Paratha. She isn't used to eating such food and felt quezy looking at it.

'Kya hua?' Ahyan eyed her as he folded his sleeves. She looked at him and pouted sadly.

'I want pancakes.'

'Pancakes!' came Mahdia's voice and Mariam looked at her excitedly. Mahdia carried tray filled with plates, pancakes, chocolate syrup and some éclair (French dessert)

Mariam licked her lips and massaged her stomach. Ahyan also liked the look of it. Mahdia placed a plate on Mariam's side and when she moved to Ahyan's side their gaze met and Mahdia blushed looking away.

'Where are you going? Aren't you having breakfast with us?' Ahyan asked confused.

Mahdia nodded her head, 'I am coming in a minute.' She smiled and quickly left. Ahyan is suspicious.

A while later, Ahyan and Mariam are happily feasting on the pancakes while Mrs. Malik is eating her Paratha.

CRASH!

A loud crashing sound alarmed everyone Mrs. Malik and Mariam looked nervously at Ahyan. He looked at them and they dropped their food and hurried out of the dining room.

'HOW DARE YOU COME INFRONT OF ME! GET LOST.' Mr. Malik's loud baritone thundered upstairs. Ahyan quickly climbed the stairs followed closely by Mariam and Mrs. Malik. Everyone frightened.

As Ahyan walked towards his father's room, a crying Mahdia came out. Ahyan looked at her and she looked back teary eyed. She covered her mouth with her palm and hurried towards her room.

'Maddy?' Mariam sounded worried, she rushed behind her aunt. Ahyan and Mrs. Malik looked at each other before going in the room.

Mahdia had prepared breakfast and desert for Mr. Malik which is now scattered along with broken pieces of plates. Mr. Malik stood there fuming, his back to them.

Ahyan felt angry, but as he took a step Mrs. Malik held his hand. He looked at her and she shook her head. Ahyan sighed and turned around walking away.

Mahdia lay on her stomach hugging a pillow tight and crying her eyes out, she had made the food with so much love and Mr. Malik threw everything. She felt hurt. Mariam sat beside her caressing her hair trying to console her.

Ahyan entered the room and silently gestured Mariam, she nodded and left.

'Hey!' he said softly, he caressed her hair. Mahdia didn't look up she continued to cry. Ahyan held her shoulder and tried to make her look at him. But she was being adamant. Ahyan sighed and hugged her from behind, she shook in his embrace as she cried.

'Please don't cry. Everything will be fine. Dad just needs to calm down for a while. He will accept you.' he kissed the back of her head.

Mahdia shook her head, crying harder. Ahyan held her tighter hoping he calms her down. In his heart, he is praying for his father accepts her somehow.
