After a few days, it came the time Anika had to go in order to prepare for a function in Goa. As sunlight rays shone on her face, she opened her eyes and sat up. Her angel was quietly sleeping with her hand on her mother's dupatta. She got her in her arms and began to feed her, wrapping the blanket around them sensing her small angel was cold.Anika looked around the room and found Shivaay with some of her clothes and a suitcase

Anika: Shivaay

He turns around and goes to her. Pecking her forehead, he wishes his wife

Shivaay: good morning Ani

Anika: yeh aap kya kare?

Shivaay: kuch nahi bas tumhare kapre pack kara

Anika: Shivaay bas itna chota sa luggage mein hum teeno ka saman aayega?

Shivaay: teeno nahi sirf tum dono

Anika: kya matlab

She looked confused when he perched on the bed beside her

Shivaay: kuch urgent kaam aya Banglore mein. Bade Papa toh kal Japan jaara hai aur Dad ko yaha businees sambhalna hoga

Anika: kohi aur time naa jaa sakte

She makes a puppy dog face

Anika: please naa

Shivaay: I would have loved to come lekin I'm sorry Anika. Mein tujhe drop karke hi jaounga aur pick up bhi

Anika: Shivaay kuch bahana banao please

Shivaay: agar kuch tha toh mein zaroor karta, lekin I can't do anything

Anika: acha fine, mein karvaati

Shivaay: I've already done it

Anika: Shivaay mere saath kaun aayega?

Shivaay: matlab?

Anika: aap Bangalore jaare hai, so I need some company as well

Shivaay: we'll ask at breakfast, we're leaving at evening anyways

Anika: okay

Anika picks up her daughter who has just finished feeding and sets her clothes straight

Shivaay: aur meri choti si pari abhi bhi sori hai?

He picks up the baby from her arms

Anika: mein ready hoker aati, tab tak aap usse uthaliye

Shivaay: uthane mein 5 mint lagega

Anika: mein hi har subha usse uthati, aap office jaate

Shivaay: meri nanhi si jaan uthjayegi

Anika: good luck

With that, she takes her dress and goes to the washroom. 15 minutes later, she comes out and finds Shivaay still trying to wake her

Shivaay: Chutki utho naa, bohot ho gaya. Aab aur nahi sona. Dekho aaj tum, mein aur Mumma saath mein Goa jaayenge, okay? Aur khoob masti karenge

Anika: aap successful nahi the. What a shame

Shivaay looks up and sees her dressed in a black crop top, floral cardigan and black jeans.

Shivaay: tum kaha jaare?

Anika: Goa, aur usse pehle mein Sakshi ke saath court jaari, aaj toh uski pehla big case hai voh bhi ek renowned lawyer ke against. Mein jaari hoon support ke liye

Shivaay: kya case hai

Anika: kuch ladke jaake misbehave karte so Sakshi is fighting to put them in jail

Shivaay: no I disagree. Ese nahi jaayegi tu. Jaldi change karke aao. Aur Chutki ko lene ke baare mein bilkul maat soch

Anika: Chutki ko kya hua?

She takes her daughter carefully in her arms and rocks her

Anika: aur iss dress ke saath kya galat hai? Moti lagri hoon main? Mujhe exercise karna tha, aaj nahi kiya aur kal bhi nahi. Goa mein kaha time milega...

Shivaay: Anika vaha un ladke ho sakte, it's dangerous. We don't know what harm they can do to our daughter and also you look hot in these clothes what if......

He pauses and they both realise what he said. Anika slowly walks up to him and wraps her free hand around his neck

Anika: toh aapko lagta ki mein hot lagti? Aur ladke mere peeche bhaagne wale? They already do, aapko pata har din, hundreds of men drop to the floor after seeing me

Shivaay wraps one hand around his wife and the other caressing his daughters back

Shivaay: Anika I'm concerned about both of your safety

Anika: Shivaay relax, yeh sirf briefing hai, voh log nahi hoge aur sirf kuch 10-20 mint lagega. She just needs some information. After that we are going to Shraddha's filming set. Voh apne upcoming movie SD3 ke liye kuch kaam tha so we thought to go visit

Shivaay: apna dhyaan zaroor rakhna

Anika: yes

Anika heads towards the door when she is called back

Shivaay: Anika

Anika: ji?

Shivaay: vese those 100 guys drop down because I take them down. Anyone who lays eyes on my....kya bolti tu......Khidkitodh, haa vahi....my khidkitodh biwi, mein usse chodunga nahi

He walks up to her, wraps his arm around her shoulder and both go down for breakfast

Anika: good morning

Dadi: aagayi meri pari

They both take a seat and Anika keeps pari in her arms

Anika: Badi maa aapko pata hai aaj Shivaay ne Chutki ko uthane ki koshish kiya

Jhanvi: sachi?

Pinky: aur voh kese gaya?

Anika: Shivaah toh pehle tadi mara tha, ki 'Shivaay Singh Oberoi ek poora country ko khareedh sakta, apni beti ko uthane mein kya mushkil hoga'

Shivaay: Hey Ani mene esa kuch nahi bola, kuch nahi bola tha

Anika: lekin yahi matlab tha

Dadi: yeh Pari bohot sohti

Pinky: bilkul Shivaay ke tarah

Gauri: shivaay jiju itna sotha tha?

Om: jese aab roz subha 5 am awake ho jate, vese bache hoker 5 pm utha tha

Jhanvi: Rudra kohi kam nahi tha

Sakahi: sirf mein Priyanka aur Om bhaaiya early uthe the

Tej and Shakti join at the table

Shakti: kam se kam Prinku aur Om normal vact per uthe the. Tu toh subhe 2-3 bajhe tamasha shuru karti thi

Shivaay: hi bade papa, dad

Tej: good morning, are you ready Shivaay?

Shivaay: all prepared, and you?

Tej: sirf kuch aur packing baaki hai

Priyanka: trips ke topic per, papa aap mere liye kal subhe ka flight arrange kar sakte? Mere paas 3 din mein ek surgery hai Goa mein, toh kam se kam ek din pele jaana hai takhi i can meet the patients and their family

Tej: sure beta

Shivaay: actually Priyanka kyu na tum humare saath aao?

Priyanka: aaj?

Anika: haa. Actually Shivaay Bangalore jaara hai toh voh mere saath Goa nahi aa sakta. You don't mind coming, do you?

Priyanka: of course not bhaabi, mein zaroor aaygi

Tej: then sorted

Bhavya: vese Priyanka bhaabi, konsa surgery hai?

Priyanka: it's a surgery on conjoined twins

Rudra: voh kya hota?

Anika: mene ek article suna tha iske baare mein. Yeh hota hai jab look alike twins, matlab identical, voh joined hote hai mom ke godh mein

Dadi: toh kya karna hai

Priyanka: hume un dono babies to alag karna hai, and try to keep them both alive at the same time

Gauri: well best of luck

Om: I know you'll do well

Priyanka: it is so rare, matlab the odds are from 1 in 49,000 to 1 in 189,000

Pinky: inta rares toh mere aur jethani ji ke necklaces bhi nahi hai joh Shakti ji aur jeth ji ne hume diya

Shivaay: this could really boost your career

Priyanka: haa

Sakshi: bhaabi Chutki uthgayi?

Anika: not yet, lekin shayad royegi. Mujhe usse change bhi karna because we're going out

Sakshi: oh haa

Dadi: challo naashta katham ho gaya, jaake tiyaar ho jao aab

Anika: ji dadi

They all go to their respective rooms

Anika: Shivaay Chutki ki kapre kaha hai? Mujhe kych mil hi nahi ra

Shivaay: shayad ek hoga bottom drawer mein

Anika opens the draw and takes out the clothes. She lies Chutki on the bed and begins to dress her up

Anika: aab meri Chutki duniya ki sabse pretties baby hogi, heina meri goglu moglu?

Chutki smiles

Anika: Shivaay tune dekha?

Shivaay: kya hua?

He rushes from his file thinking something is wrong

Anika: aap ek kaam kar, Chutki ko change karlo

She rushes to her table near the bed and opens the draw. She takes out a red book and flicks through some pages. Taking a pen she writes something and sees the chart for a while

Shivaay: yeh kya hai?

Anika: iss book mein hum Chutki ki har kuch details fill in karege

Shivaay: matlab? Dikhao mujhe

Anika runs over and shows the diary. On various pages there are facts and slots for photographs.

Anika: apane dekha? Meri beti ne pehla baar smile kiya, So iss section mein, hum photo kheenchenge aur likhge 2 months. Meine already kuch cheeze record kiya, jese the first time she slept throught the night and our ultrasound scans. Aab bas jaldi tu mama bolde na phir mein likher khoob khelungi tere saath

Shivaay: you're so excited, naa?

Anika: haa

She squeals and keeps the diary safely back in the drawer

Anika: acha mein chalti, Sakshi must be waiting

Shivaay: okay bye

Anika: bye

He pecks her forehead and she goes off. She meets with Sakshi at the front door

Sakshi: ready?

Anika: haa tum Chutki ko ek second hold karlo, please

Sakshi: I'm sure she won't mond longer time with her lovely Bua, heina?

Anika: mujhe lagta hai ki blanket bhool gayi mene

Sakshi: bag mein nahi hai?

She searches deeper but can't find it

Anika: nahi hai

At that moment, Shivaay walks to her with the blanket in his hand

Shivaay: yeh toh tune bed per bhool gayi thi

Anika: oh thank you Shivaay

He pecks her cheek and goes

Anika: bye

Sakshi: bye bhaaiya

Shivaay: safe journey

They go towards the car and anika keeps Chutki in the car seat. She then takes the driver seat and begins to drive to the court. After about 15 minutes they reach

Anika: challe

Sakshi: mein jaati aap Chutki ko leker aao

Anika: haa

Anika joins Sakshi after a while and finds her in a room with open files covering her desk

Anika: Saksh

Sakshi: yeh?

Anika: are u fine?

Sakshi: mujhe yeh samaj mein nahi aata. There are so many evidences lekin each is not enough to prove one incident

Anika: kyu naa saare evidences ko milker kuch solution find karo

Sakshi: sorry mein samjhi nahi

Anika: acha yeh socho

She comes over to the table and indicates one event in the file

Anika: here on this day, you have evidence that they were at some nightclub. Doosre video footage ke notes dekho aab

Sakshi: saare notes mein ek cheez common hai

Anika: kya?

Sakshi: roughly same time they go in, same time they come out on every 3 days of week

Anika: haa

Sakshi: toh agar mein kuch aur specific cctv footage mil sakti then i can proove what activities they do

Anika: lekin kaha se milna hai yeh evidence?

Sakshi: shayad Bhavya help kar sakti

Anika: haa this will work

Sakshi: thanks Bhaabi. Shayad sab kuch itna straight forward nahi hai

They were talking as Sakshi was arranging files when a lady bursts inside the room. As Anika was near the door, the lady came and stood in front of her, keenly looking at Sakshi and not turning back

Lady: please meri help karo

She was followed by security

Security: sorry ma'am, andhar se ghuss gayi thi, bina Appointment ke saath

Sakshi: it's okay

The guards leave

Anika: Saksh I'll be in the car, jab hogaya toh aaja

Sakshi: okay

She turns to the lady as Anika goes with her daughter

Sakshi: betho

Lady: thank you

Sakshi: what can I do for you?

Lady: mujhe ek lawyer chaiye

Sakshi: what type of case is this?

Lady: humare ghaar mein drugs milgaya. Mere nahi hai Sachi, lekin mere so called pati ne mujhe akele chod kar chale gaya, mujhe nahi oata kaha

Sakshi: okay I can look into this case futher lekin aaj Sunday hai aur mein kaam nahi kari aaj

Lady: oh

Sakshi: lekin kal ajao naa, I can put you in for 10:00

Lady: thank you so much, lekin kal thak mein kya karungi?

Sakshi: I'll contact the police, they'll give some arrangements for you to stay over night

Lady: I'm so happy, thanks

The lady gets up and heads towards the door. Sakshi calls after the woman and she stops in her path

Sakshi: can I take your name?

Lady: sure, I'm Swetlana Kapoor

Sakshi: Thank you

They both leave from there

Anika: challe?

Sakshi: haa

They go towards a filming studio and soon enter to find the cast of Shraddha's upcoming movie

Shraddha: didi aap aagaye?

Anika: Hi

Shraddha runs to her ans gives her a tight hug, mindful of the baby in her arms

Shraddha: so guys this is my sister, the best in the world. Frankly speaking I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for her

Anika is slightly shocked but ignores it

Sakshi: aur mein Shraddha ki jiju ki bhen

Shraddha: yeh this is Sakshi, a lawyer at profession

There weren't many people there, just a few co stars and choreographers. Sakshi scanned the people and then noticed her favourite actor there

Sakshi: Varun Dhawan!!!!!

She starts jumping up and down like a child

Sakshi: Oh bete ki!

Anika: yeh toh mera line hai?

Sakshi: the actual Varun is standing here? I'm gonna faint

Shraddha: Saksh drama queen maat bano

Varun: haa, Shraddha hai, aur mein nahi sambhal payga

Sakshi: aapka awaaz real life mein aur dreamy hai

Varun: thank you, i guess?

Anika: aur yeh lovely si dancer

She turns to a lady in shorts stood at the table

Anika: Miss Nora Fatehi

(Who doesn't love her???)

Nora: you recognise me?

Anika: aur nahi toh kya, I absolutely love your dancing

Shraddha: dekho Nora, meine poori zindagi bethaya, Didi ko impress karne ka aur aap aake mujhse cheen lete

Sakshi: arrey Shraddha tumhare saare talents Bhaabi se aate hai

Nora: so you dance?

Anika: itna nahi, bas thora sa

Varun: toh dikhao

Anika: no I'm better of leaving it to the prefessionals

Shraddha: Didi please

Sakshi takes the baby from her hands and makes her stand there

Anika: Shraddha tu bhi aana

Shraddha: fine

Sakshi: konsa gaana

Varun: Dilbar karlo, that way Nora bhi aapko join karlungi

Nora: mein

Anika: please, it would be lovely

Nora: challe

The music comes on and Nora quickly goes through the main steps with them. They dance well and all smash it

Nora: fabulous

Anika: thank you, Noriana

Shraddha: mujhe thanks nahi bolenge?

Anika: thanks to you too

Nora: aur yeh baby kaun hai

Anika takes her back in her arms

Anika: yeh meri choti si beti hai, Chanda Shivaay Singh Oberoi. With love we call her Chutki

Nora: how cute

Sakshi: bilkul Varun ke jese

She quickly realises what she said and then tries to cover up

Sakshi: I mean when.....when he was small......and still now.....you know

Varun: do you want a picture?

Sakshi: yes please

She runs to him and gives Shraddha her phone

Sakshi: acha sa picture le lo, mujhe yeh frame karna hoga

Shraddha takes the pictures and gives the phone back

Sakshi: yeh pictures toh mein golden frame mein lagwaoungi. Itna khoobsurat wala hai yeh

After some chit chat and laughter, Anika sees her watch

Anika: Oh yaha 5:00 bajhgaya

Sakshi: aapka flight hai naa?

Shraddha: Goa wala?

Anika: haa

Shraddha: well take care Didi and bye from Sonu di as well

Anika: bye Shraddhu

She wishes bye and they three go back home

😊
