FINDING HOME IN YOU

✧・゚: ✧・゚: - :・゚✧:・゚✧

A not so simple morning but bright and shining in sunlight. Santiniketan Villa has got ready like a new bride. The reason for all the decorations, the varieties of aromas of food, is because someone special is coming home today.

A lady with a stethoscope around her neck and bag in her hand, wearing a kurti and straight pants came inside along with a man.

Happiness was dripping from their faces as the couple entered inside.

"Is everything ready?" The man asked to keep his palm over the head of a sweet innocent looking girl, who came to see them hurriedly and handed glass of juice.

"Yes" she replied sweetly keeping her gaze low as usual.

"Aunty who is coming today?" She asked in her most polite voice to the lady who was busy sipping her juice.

"Ahhhh that's a surprise for you my girl" she said and both the couple laughed, making the sweet girl confused.

She nodded her head and left the duo alone to talk.

"Maheen we should tell her about his arrival" The man said, keeping his palm over the lady named Maheen.

"No Yuvaan not now. It's the fruit of her patience, her waits. Don't ruin it by telling soon"

"But the sooner the better."

"Please trust me. Don't tell me as of now. Atleast let Abhimaan come first she will herself get to know."

"As you as my dear wifey" saying the man named Yuvaan kissed on his wife cheek making her red and timid in the middle of the hall.

She nudged him with her elbow while he laughed out.

But their eyes popped up when they heard someone coughing to get their attention.

They turned and found their mother was coming towards them with three musketeers.

"Good morning Mummy," Maheen said, getting up from the couch seeing her mother-in-law.

"Good morning good morning my lovey dovey couple." The old lady teased and sat beside her son.

While the three musketeers make them comfortable on the opposite side of the couch.

Maheen blushed and lowered her gaze while Yuvaan scratched his neck in embarrassment.

"Okay okay no need to play the game shy shy. I know everything." Avantika the head of the Suryavanshi family said, gaining their attention and asked.

"You both are looking tired. Go take a rest. There are still five to six hours left until his arrival."

"Ahhh mom. The surgery was so hectic" saying Yuvaan laid his head on his mother's lap while the others said 'Awee' in unison.

"Huhhh not fair Mom really really really not fair. Whenever Yuv bhaiya is around you never asked for me either Dev did you eat? Dev, how is your health? Dev blah Dev blah huhhh" another man in his mid fifties came to the hall approaching them along with his wife who smacked on his hand because of his poor acting skills.

Everyone chuckled and Avantika Devi said.

"You still the same monkey you used to be in your adulthood Dev." She shook her head when her other son Dev placed his head on her shoulder.

Samaira, Dev's wife, sat beside Maheen and looked at them with happiness and tears in their eyes.

"If Adi bhaiya and Heer bhabi...." Avantika stopped Dev in the mid way by placing her palm on his lips.

"Please Dev. My heart bleeds whenever I recall those days. I still can't believe my Adi and Heer are no more." The old lady's lips wobbled and she let out a silent sob while wiping her tears.

Everyone got emotional but then Avantika felt someone's presence near her feet.

She opened her eyes and found a handsome face looking at her with a smile on his lips and pain in his eyes.

"Your Adi's son is here Dadi. Don't cry please." He wiped the old woman's cheeks

"Ayaan my heart" Avantika kissed his face lovingly remembering her dead son and smiled with tears.

"Please do not remember them with tears. Remember them with a smile" his lips also wobble at the end and voice turned heavy.

Getting up from the floor he left the hall .

"Ayaan bhaiya" two melodious voices called him from behind but he was gone already.

"Hiya, Divya do not call him" Maheen told the girls and they nodded.

"Divi go and check on Rehana" Samaira said and left with Hiya to check on Rehana.

~○~

"Rehana, where are you?"

She was decorating the plates in the dining table for the special guest according to the family. Looked over her shoulder and found Divya was coming towards her with packets of sweets in her hands.

Sighed She went to her and took some of them.

"Thank you Rooh darling" Divya kissed on her cheeks making her frown but both the girls giggled.

"Where is Hiya di?"

"Ahh she is in call with someone"

"Divi"

"Hmm"

"Do you think Hiya di is in love?"

Divya looked at her with wide eyes.

"Do you think it is?"

"Not sure but I feel"

"Huh look who is telling? The one who got scared of boys even when Ayaan Bhaiya called her"

She blushed and lowered her face.

"By the way, what made you think that Hiya have a boyfriend or is in love?"

Rehana shrugged and was going to tell her assumption but stopped when her eyes landed on Hiya entering inside the dining room.

"Hey pretty girls, let's get off your lazy ass and come with me. The guest has arrived already"

"What he arrived?" Screaming in joy Divya left like a jet speed leaving one of them in confusion and another on laughing.

Hiya turned and found the confused Rehana.

"Come Rooh lets go"

Rehana nodded at her with a smile and both the girls left hand in hand talking and giggling.

~○~

When Rehana with Hiya reached the gate they found, all the family members were hugging someone one by one and atlast Divya jumped on the well built man and cried out.

Hiya also went to meet the person, while Rehana chose to stay there at the entrance as she doesn't know him.

But her eyes popped out from it's socket when the well built man in denim jeans and white shirt turned towards the entrance.

Her eyes welled up and lips quivered. Shiver ran down from her spine seeing the man after three years.

He looks exactly the same.

Dumbo, he is the one.

Is he really here? After three long years?

If it's him go go run to him dumbo girl.

She shook her head to get rid of her subconscious.

Their eyes meet.... tears rolled down from her eyes. A sob was going to escape from her lips but she covered her mouth with her dupatta and left the entrance at lightning speed.

~○~

"Let's go inside bhai"

Ayaan called him to bring him back to reality.

Abhimaan was awestruck by the beauty he had seen some moments ago. It was like he was seeing his dream girl.

But water? In her eyes? What happened with her suddenly? Moreover, who is the girl?

He got lost again with this newfound girl.

"Bhaiya lets go please" he heard Divya whining and smiled at her.

~○~

"How was everything there?" Yuvaan asked when everyone settled in the hall room.

"All good papa. The university was nice. Also the company where I did the internship was also very good. And the most interesting part is they said that they would be happy if we collaborate in future."

"Ohh it's a good opportunity" Ayaan said and Abhimaan nodded his head while sipping his favourite mango shake.

"I must say our Abhi is multi talented" Dev patted his shoulder with pride.

"Now you guys stop asking him further questions and let us the mothers feed our son" Samaira said entering the hall along Maheen with lots of dishes.

"Chachi... I think I'm going to get fatty very soon" Abhimaan chuckled and Samaira twisted her lips then fed him the nudges with chocolate syrup.

"Ummm it's so tasty. Who made this?" He asked with mouthful food

"Rooh made this bhaiya" Divya said and Abhimaan thought for a moment but shrugged it off thinking it must be their maid or anyone else and got busy tasting everything.

"Where is Rehana?" Maheen asked, searching her left and right side.

"I don't know Badi Maa. She was with me some moment ago but I think she went to her room after finding the guest is bhaiya" she whispered in her ear.

Maheen nodded and thought to visit her first. She must be feeling hurt seeing him here.

Sighing, Maheen made her way to Rehana's room.
