Hellooooo, how is everyone? I am here, after almost 10 days. This has been the longest I have gone without updating any chapter and I apologize for the delay. There was a lot happening with studies, twitter and well, I wasn't really sure how I wanted to end this book. I had like ten thousand ideas and ended up writing all, but at the end I was disappointed so had to start from scratch again. Ngl, I am not really impressed with this, but I hope you all like it.

I promised I would reply to all the comments but I managed to do only few, I am sorry for that as well. But I read most of them and you guys are so supportive and amazing. Thank you so much for the love and well wishes. It really does mean a lot.

Some of you felt that I could continue this story, and you are not wrong, I could. But, in my personal opinion, I wouldn't be able to give justice to it. I don't have a strong storyline to continue this book with. Few questions will be answered in this part, few won't. I'll reply to all your questions and feedback in the comments.

"Alright, let's take it from the top," Shehnaaz said, giving her deep voice extra raspiness. She held her scrunched fingers by her face and demonstrated, "Saaaaaa!"

The set of triplets all giggled loudly, their small hands mimicking her position.

"Beautiful," she smiled, as the kids sang the further notes. The warm spring breeze through the open window , blew through  her yellow crop top, her black skinnies rolled up to ankles and her feet bare. 

"That's it," Shehnaaz laughed over them,as they kept messing up the notes, smiling as she  adored their chubby faces. "You girls sing lovely."

"We're lovely," one said, her puffy purple hat falling into her eyes.

Shehnaaz smiled and adjusted her hat, tilting her sister's blue hat on her head of soft hair. She bopped the pink hat of the third sister for good luck, earning a chorus of giggles.

"There we are," she said. "We have completed our lessons for today. Do you want to sing more jingles?." She bent her head towards them and grinned at them, sliding her round glasses higher into her long hair. "We can sing Bollywood songs as well. What say?" She fanned her fingers out, excitement rasping in her voice. "You get to choose. We can dance as well. " she rolled his eyes dramatically, "Lets skip the boring melodies now."

"I will choose" the puffy pink outfitted sister cried, kicking her legs on the bench.

Shehnaaz ran along with them, breaking into laughter as she took them towards the audio player, giving them the authority to choose. They had passed their allotted lesson time, but she didn't have any lessons directly after them. Sometimes, the best experience came from when her students were relaxed and under the impression the lesson was over. She didn't mind an extra few minutes here or there.

She looked at the kids, fighting among-st themselves to get access of the audio player. A year ago, she wouldn't have imagined she would be spending her days spent in a small studio, away from the city buzz, teaching music to little kids. After coming back from Maldives, she spent her time looking up music courses and part time jobs. It wasn't easy, nobody wanted to hire an escort. But Sidharth supported her wholeheartedly. He recommended her to one of his friend's company where she worked as a fashion assistant for a while, doing her part-time music course as well. Once she completed the 10 month course, she started "Sangeet", a music class for kids aged between 5-10 years. She had enough contacts from her previous clients and Mini's friends to have a fresh start. She didn't earn as much as she did in the escort business, but at the end of her day she got to go back to the love of her life, discuss all the shenanigans with him and laugh with him. Life was finally getting better.
