UDE DIL BEFIKRE ✔

CHAPTER 18

It was 7 in the evening. Tej & Janvi and Shivika were having their gala time.

T- I think we should leave now.

A- Why papa? Please stay na. Atleast have dinner with us.

T- Anika beta, I would love to stay but we have to attend a business party.

A- Mumma.

J- I am sorry beta but its important and Don't worry, we will visit here often.

Anika makes a puppy face and nods her head.

Tej & Janvi hugs her from either sides. Shivaay was just gaping at them.

Tej looks at him.

T- Shivaay, close your mouth otherwise flies will get a new home.

Everyone laughs at him and he makes an annoyed face.

S- I think that you guys have forgotten that you came here to meet me not her.

He says pointing towards Anika with a grumpy face.

Tej and Jhanvi chuckles at him and invites him to join the hug.
He happily agrees and hops on them.

Anika was in the middle of Tejanvi and Shivaay was beside Jhanvi.

T- Ok. So lets leave. Take care.

Tej says while caressing Anika's face. Anika smiles and nods her head.

J- Shivaay, take care of yourself and Anika and don't trouble her.

S- Yes, mom.

T/J- Bye kids.

S/A- Bye mom and dad.

Tej and Jhanvi smiles and leaves.

Anika was smiling broadly.

S- Oye Hoye! Look at that smile. What happened? You seem to be very happy.

Shivaay says while teasing her.

Anika looks at him with a smile.

A- Thank you, Shivaay. Because of you, today I felt the love of a family.

Suddenly Anika hugs him tightly and Shivaay was taken aback by her gesture but he gently hugs her back.

A- Thank you.

As soon as Anika realises that she was hugging Shivaay, she bit her tongue and breaks the hug. She starts looking here and there not meeting his gaze.

S- Its ok. It happens in happiness. Friends can hug each other, right?

Anika smiles and nods her head.

A- Ok. So its my turn to make dinner. What should I make?

S- Umm.. You said that you belong from Rajasthan.

Anika nods her head.

S- So can you make something rajasthani because I have never tasted it?

A- Sure.

S- Can I help you? Actually I also want to learn some Indian dishes.

Anika nods her head and they move towards Kitchen.

Anika was taking out the ingredients from the shelves.

A- Shivaay, where have you kept wheat flour?

S- On the top shelf.

Anika nods her head.

She was trying to hold the box but was unable to because it was out of her reach.
