Anika Anand and Ankita came to their house from the night party. They had a small party for getting thr job, only with 3-4 friends. It was already late and Ankita had an early fight to catch. Amulya was already asleep with her mamu Sahil. Trio smiled watching Sahil and Amulya sleeping, hugging eachother. Trio dispersed to their respective room and slept.

*******

"Dii, call us when you reach. Don't bother about the time." Anika said hugging her sister Ankita, at the airport.

"Mumma..." Amulya, Called her mother, with tears in her wyes. The sisters broke the hug and looked at Amulya who was in the arms of her father Anand, who is all ready to compete with his daughter in the crying competition. Sahil was not less, he is also a tough competitor to them.

"My baby...." Ankita moved to them and picked Amulya in her arms, lovingly kissing on her cheek. The wall of Amulya's emotions broke down, as her throw her arms around her mother's neck, burying her face in the crook of neck. Ankita glanced Anand, hugging her child.

Anand cupped her face and rubbed off the tears away, planting a small kiss on her forehead making Ankita Anika and sahil smile. He hugged his wife and daughter into his chest, caressing his baby's head. He tilted his head towards his sister - in -law and brother - in -law, who were smiling with moist eyes. He gestured them to come over.

Hugging his wife and daughter by his left hand, Anand used the other one to wipe Anika's tears and then Sahil's. He pulled Anika into the hug and she pulled Sahil too into it. Anand planted a kiss on the top of Anika's head and Sahil's as well and turned to the other side, to plant a kiss on his daughter's head too.

Anika Anand Sahil and Amulya waved their hands to Ankita, as she walked inside the airport to board the flight. They waited till the fight fly above their heads. The they walked to their car and drove to their house.

Amulya was more attatched with Anika  Sahil and Anand than Ankita. She always ignore Ankita over Anika and Sahil. From the day she born, Anika also felt the motherly feel, because of Amulya.

On the other hand, Anika was always a sister for Anand, from the day he met her. Anika ia also very carefree with him, just like she would have if she had a brother. Both fight for silly things and he fulfil all of her demands, so as Sahil. But from the day She Sahil and Ankita lost their parents, he had a different view on Anika and Sahil. His heart poured a fatherly love for them, and they felt it as well. They still fights over every silly things, but it made their bond more strong.

Ankita got a new job at Austria, her and Anika's dream place. Both did graduation from the same university for degree, at Delhi. And they moved to Mumbai after their parents died, along with Anand and Amulya. Anand have a family, but they are not in a good term. His younger brothers and he had a fight ove the property, as they claimed it as only their. From that day, Anand and Ankita moved to her house, with their daughter. They led a very happy family over their. Anika Sahil and Ankita's parents always loved Anand as their own son and so as Anand. Amulya was the happiest one among them as she got her maasi and mamu all to herself to play.

********

Anand Sahil and Anika reached their house. Amulya was fast asleep on her masi's lap. She held Amulya to her chest protectively. Getting out of the car, Anand took Amulya into his arm and gave the key to Anika to open the door of their house.

Getting in, Anand put Amulya into the sofa and Sahil also laid beside her lazily. Till then Anika bought water for them.

"Jiju, i have an interview at O Wings hospital for HR Manager post. I have to reach there by 12 pm. I just got the mail now." Anika said as she dropped herself on the other couch.

"Should i drop you?" Anand asked making himself comfortable on the chair opposite them.

"No jiju, I'll manage. You have to go to Amu's school for the meeting, forgot?" Anika asked as she got up and sat properly, facing him.

"Oh yeah, i just forgot. Thanks for reminding me..." He said as Anika chuckled.

"Come bro, let's have breakfast, i couldn't even eat properly because of your wife." Anika said dragging Anand and Sahil to the dining table.

Trio eat their breakfast which was prepared by Anand, for his lovely ladies and boy in the morning.

********

"Jiju, you're leaving?" Anika asked as she saw Anand walking to the entrance with Amulya in his hand and Sahil beside him." Anand turned around to see her running down the stair.

"You're still here? Its been almost half an hour that you said bye to me. What were you doing again inside the house?" Anand asked as he glanced at his watch  and lifted his head to see Anika.

"Sorry Jiju, i forgot my resume and i didn't knew where i had kept it. I had to search my whole wardrobe but it was on the side table only." She said giving him an awkward smile. Anand shook his head in disbelief.

"Ghanchakkar." Sahil said earning a glare from Anika and giggle from Anand and Amulya. They also got shut by Anika's glare.

"Now come. I'll drop you." Anand said dragging Anika out of the house, Sahil following them.

They locked the house and turned around to walk to their car. They saw the neighbours glancing them with a disgusting look. Anika had looped her hands around Anand's. The neighbours were whispering something to eachother giving them a look. Anand shook his head as he knew what's going inside their dirty heads. Anika looked at Anand as her eyes tear up.

"Hey, baccha, don't cry. They don't know what we are for eachother. They all have dirty mind that why they are giving us this look and whispering to themselves." Anand said wiping Anika's tears and hugged her into his chest planting a kiss on her head.

"Yes dii, its their job to whisper anything and everything. Just ignore such bloody people." Sahil said kissing on her cheek.

Anand glared the people angrily, brfore making Anika sit inside the car and placing Amulya on her lap and patted on her head lovingly. Sahil sat on the back seat. Getting into the driver seat, he started the car.

"Baccha, stop crying. You know i can't see tears in your eyes, right?" Anand said using his one hand to caress Anika's head. She nodded her head and smiled a little.

*******

About a 15 minutes ride, they reached in front of the O Wings Hospital.

"Bye jiju. Bye Sahil. Bye Amu baby..." Anika said placing Amulya on the seat and tying the seatbelt on her. She planted a soft kiss on Amulya's head and recieved a cheek kiss in return, making her smile.

"All the best Anu/dii." Anand  and Sahil said waving his hand at her. He ride back the car after making sure that Anika walked inside the building safely.

*******

"Excuse me.... I am here for the interview..." Anika said approaching the receptionist.

"Your name?" Receptionist asked smiling.

"Anika Singh Bundela." Anika replied with the same amount of smile.

"I am sorry ma'am, but you are late. We had called you half an hour before. Your time was at 12 and its now pst 12:30 already." Receptionist told making Anika's smile vanish in the air.

"But..." Anika tried to speak only to get interrupt by the receptionist.

"Excuse me ma'am." She said picking up the receiver.

"Yes sir...."

"No sir but...."

"Yes sir..."

"Okay I'll sir..."

The receptionist put the receiver down and looked at Anika with a smile.

"Ma'am you're so lucky. Sir have called you for the interview. You can go straight, lift is at the left at the end. Press 49 and from there straight and 2nd last cabin." She told smiling. Anika's smile ran back into her face as her eyes twinkled with happiness.

"Thank you so much..." Anika told running to the lift.

******

Anika took a long breath, stepping out of the lift. She examined the whole corridor. It was beautiful, simple but amazing. She walked straight and reached the 2nd last cabin as the receptionist told. Taking a long breath she knocked on the door.

"Come in." She heard a manly voice. She opened the door and saw 3 men sitting. One was at his early 50s, who had a very serious expression. Other two were respectively of early and late 20s. The one who is in his late 20s were looking calm and cool. He had long hair and had a suble smile looking at her. The one who is at his early 20s had a twinkle in his eyes watching her. He had a cute yet mischief smile. Anyone can say that he is a gym lover by one look, as his shirt is fitted with his biceps.

Anika walked over and stood infront of them with a smile.

"Take your seat." The long haired expression, said.  She took her seat with a smile.

"Good afternoon sir, i am extremely sorry for being late..." Anika apologised politely, to which the older one nodded his head. Anika gave her file to him, he started to examine it while the other two asked her some questions regarding her job interest, capacity etc.

"Impressive...." She heard the older one saying, keeping the file on the table.

"You have scored amazing marks. And your view on the job is also amazing. I think you are hired?" He said questioning, gazing the duo beside him, making Anika also shift her face to them.

"Of course, she is." The duo said smiling.

"Thank you so much sir." Anika said smiling.

"But..." Anika gazed them curiously for the but.

"Are you okay if we hire you for the Austria Branch? Actually, here seats are filled up. We want an HR Manager for our Austria Branch. And you're amazing. But if you have any problem, we can replace someone else with you?" The younger one asked in a serious tone.

"No no sir.... I mean, i am really okay with Austria. Actually its my dream place." Anika said smiling, while doing bhagra inside her.

"Okay then. You can work here for two weeks, just to gain some details about the Austria branch and its works. You'll be working under us." The younger one said smiling.

"Okay sir, thank you." Anika said as she got up from the chair. The long haired one gave her file back.

*******

Anika walked out of the building, smiling ear to ear.

"Finally.... My dream gonna be true." Anika squealed in happiness. She walked to the park nearby. She sat on a bench smiling, dreaming about Austria. Suddenly someone seated beside her. She tilted her head and saw a man at his late 20s sitting. She shrugged off thinking that he had came here just to relax.

"Anika i love you..." Anika jerked looking at the man, and saw him looking at her already.

"What?" Anika shouted in shock.

"Easy! Easy!" The man said calmly.

"And i said that i love you Anika." He said making her get up from the bench with a jerk.

"I think you are mistaken. I am not the one...." Suddenly realisation hit her.

"How do you know my name?" She asked as her eyes widened in another shock.

"Come on yaar. I said i love you and you think that I'll love someone whose name i don't know." He said with a giggle. Anika looked at him without blinking her eyes.

"Okay, let me introduce you to yourself." He said getting up from his seat and looked straight into her eyes.

"Your name is Anika Singh Bundela. Mom Manika Singh Bundela, Dad Rishabh Singh Bundela, Sister Ankita Singh Bundela Parikh, younger brother Sahil Singh Bundela, Brother - in -law Anand Parikh niece Amulya Parikh. Mom Dad passed away in an accident, when you were 20, and now you are 22. Your sister flew to Austria this morning as she got her dream job at her and your dream place. You got a new job at Austria some moment ago. Flying within 2 weeks. Live in Matunga with your brother, niece abd brother-in-law till your sister flew this morning. Before that your sister was also there. Your brother - in- law works at Kapoors company as the head of Accounts department. Is it enough or want more?" He asked raising his eyebrows at her. All the while Anika was standing like a statue.

"Anika? Back to earth?" He called her, clicking his fingers infront of her eyes, bring her back to normal.

"H-how you k-know all th-these?" She asked baffled.

"Don't worry, i am not any creepy stalker. I wont do any such acts as well. But yeah, you'll definitely get me anywhere and everywhere you go, that's my promise. For now..." He took out a rose and gave it to her. She stood still. He held her palm and kept it on her palm and walked away.

Anika looked at the rose and then at him, back to back. Confused on what should she do. Should she discuss it to her sister and brother-in-law? Or should wait for sometime and see what gonna happen next?
