Shivaay sat with his face covered in his palms.

Anika cupped his palms. She understood that a new problem has arised.

A- What happened, psycho?

Shivaay removed his palms from his face and looked at her with worried face.

S- A new problem is coming to our home.

A- What? Which problem?

S- My parents.

Anika frowned in confusion and furry.

A- Psycho, are you really mad? How can you call your parents a problem?

S- I didn't mean that way. I meant that they will definitely cause a problem to us.

A- But why?

S- They are on the way to our home.

Anika stood up from the sofa and cupped her mouth in shock.

A- You mean our home?

Shivaay nodded his head.

A- Oh My God! Oh My God! What should I do? Shall I run away with Pari? What if they don't like me? What if they don't accept Pari? Oh No. What should I....

Anika was ranting hysterically until Shivaay palmed her mouth and made her shut up.

S- Shhhhh! It's okay. Calm down.

Anika nodded her head and took a deep breath.

S- I'm also worried. I also wanted some time for adjusting in our relationship then I would have introduced you both but here things turned in a different way. But don't worry, I'll handle everything.

Shivaay said while cupping her cheeks and Anika nodded her head.

A- What if they don't accept us?

S- No matter what! I'll be always with you and Pari. I've promised a lifetime to you both and I never break my promises. Okay? They might get a little angry but they're very good at heart, especially my father. So don't worry.

Anika nodded her head. Their moment was broken by Pari's cries.

A- I'll go and check on her. She must be hungry.

Shivaay nodded his head.

S- Okay. Till then I'll go and prepare some dinner.

Anika nodded her head with a smile and went to Pari's nursery.

She saw Pari looking at her with glossy angelic eyes.

A- Awww! My baby is up.

Anika said while picking up Pari in her arms and Pari snuggled in the crook of her neck.

Anika smiled and pecked her forehead.

A- Now let's fill your small tummy.

Anika said while tickling her stomach and Pari giggled.

Anika sat on the couch and made Pari lie on her lap and she started feeding her.

After feeding her, she took Pari to her bedroom. She lied her down on the bed and surrounded her with pillows.

She sat beside her.

A- Baby, you know today your dadi and dadu are coming. I don't know if they will accept us or not but we will try our best. Right baby? Now help me to choose a dress for mumma. Okay?

Pari was listening to Anika carefully and then she giggled at the end.

Anika went to her wardrobe and took our 3-4 Indian dresses.

She showed the first dress to Pari but she made a bad face.

A- Not good.

She showed her another dresses and Pari turned on her stomach as if refusing to look at the dress.

A- Ok. Ok. I won't show you bad dresses. Now see the last one.

She made Pari lye down on her back and showed her a blue dress. After looking at the dress, Pari squealed in happiness. Anika smiled widely.

A- Yaaay! My baby liked it.

Anika said while kissing her cheeks as Pari giggled.

A- Now let me dress up my Pari baby. And Mumma and Pari will wear matching-matching dresses.

Anika took out a cute blue denim and floral dress for Pari.

She dressed up Pari in her dress and tied a pearl headband on her head and made her wear silver shoes.

A-Wow! My baby is looking like a princess.

Anika said while kissing her forehead.

A- Now baby, lie down here and don't do any naughtiness. Mumma will go and get ready.

Pari giggled and Anika went to dress up.

She got ready in a blue long Indian dress with golden silk dupatta. She applied some make up when Shivaay entered the room.

He was surprised to see her.

S-Wow! You are looking great.

Anika smiled while looking at him through the mirror. Pari squealed loudly as if grabbing Shivaay's attention to look at her also. Shivaay chuckled and went towards Pari.

He picked her up in his arms and pecked her.

S- Wow! My angel is looking so beautiful, even more than Mumma.

Pari giggled and Anika smiled.

S- But Nutsy, why are you dressed up so much? Only mom and dad are coming.

Anika immediately turned to look at him.

A- Is it too much? Oh no. Am I not looking good.I'll go and change right now.

Anika was about to go when Shivaay held her hand.

S- Hey! It's okay Nutsy. You're looking very beautiful but you don't have to change yourself to impress my parents. I like you the way you are.

Anika smiled at him.

A- It's not like that. I really like Indian dresses. It's just that I don't get chances very often.

S- You're looking beautiful. Don't get worried. Everything will be fine.

Anika smiled and nodded her head.

A- Now go and get ready. I'll go down stairs with Pari.

Shivaay nodded his head and gave Pari to Anika.

Anika took her in her arms and went down stairs.

She was sitting with Pari in the living room. At the same time, Shivaay also came down, dressed up in a denim blue shirt and jeans.

A- Wow! You're also matching with us.

S- Of course. When my wife and daughter are wearing same colors then why should I wear different.

Anika blushed a little when Shivaay mentioned her as his wife but she expertly covered it up.

Suddenly the doorbell rang and all colors drained from Anika's face.

S- I'll go and open the door.

Anika nodded her head.

Shivaay went to open the door. She picked up Pari in her arms and followed him.

Shivaay opened the door and Pinky & Shakti entered the house. They looked at Shivaay and then at Anika.

P- OH MY MATA! HOW DARES YOU?

Pinky shouted loudly.
