Part 8 : Panipuri Date

||Anya||

I woke up next morning to find Shubman sleeping beside in sitting position with palm placed on my forehead. He must not have been able to sleep whole night which made me feel guilty.

I carefully removed his hand from my forehead and got out of the bed.

"Shub" I said shaking him lightly. He woke up at once.

"Hmm?" He said not opening his eyes.

"Lie down. I'm going downstairs, you can sleep properly" I said. He just hummed and laid on the bed. I moved to the washroom after this and took a bath and wore a floral one piece which Myra lent me along with the one piece I wore last night.

I came out of the washroom and Shubman was sleeping peacefully on the bed. I took a bedsheet and covered him with it and closed the door with utmost silence and went downstairs.

"Good morning" Riya smiled at me.

"Good morning Riya" I smiled back.

"Thank God you're up, varna akele breakfast banana padta" she laughs.

"Myra kahan hai?" I asked.

"She's still sleeping" she said.

"Okay, so breakfast me kya bana rahe hum?" I ask her.

"Sandwiches" she replied.

"What should I do?" I ask.

"Potatoes vaha rakhe hai please boil kardo, tab tak I'll cut the vegetables" she instructed. I did what she said and meanwhile she chopped the vegetables. After the potatoes were properly boiled I took them out and placed them in a bowl.

"Abhay kahan hai?" I asked her while smashing the potatoes.

"Vo bhi so raha hai. What about Shub?" She asked me.

"He is also sleeping" I tell her. "I wanted to ask something" I added.

"Pucho" she said.

"Are you guys fine with me?" I asked nervously.

"What do you mean?" She asked confused.

"Am I like an intruder in your group? Shub won't tell me I know that's why I wanted to ask you" I said. Riya stopped her work and came to me and kept her hands on my shoulders.

"You're not. We're a family, you're with Shub which means you too are a part of this family" she said.

"Thanks" I smiled.

"What made you ask this? Didn't we treat you well?" She asked. "I'm sorry if we didn't" she added making an apologetic face.

"Nooo, it's not like that. I'm sorry I shouldn't have asked this, I really-"

"It's okay, chill" she cuts me off.

"Hey guys" I heard Myra.

"Good morning Myra" I wished her.

"Good morning Anya, what're you guys doing?" She asked.
