It was evening when Shivaay's sleep broke due to constant ringing of doorbell.

He looked at Anika who was sleeping peacefully. He kissed her forehead and went to open the main door.

As soon as he opened the door, he was surprised to see his mom dad.

S- Mom. Dad. What a pleasant surprise!

T- We are here as its my daughter's first karwa chauth.

Shivaay shook his head in disbelief.

J- Where is Anika?

S- Mom, she is sleeping as she was feeling very tired and weak.

T- Oh my God! Is she fine?

S- Yes dad. She's fine.

Tej & Janvi and Shivaay entered their bedroom and saw Anika sleeping with a cute pout. Shivaay just wanted to go and gobble up her pout but unfortunately he can't as his parents were also there. 😉

Jhanvi sat on the bed near Anika's head. She caressed Anika's hair. Anika smiled in her sleep and kept her head on Jhanvi's lap. Jhanvi was caressing her hair.

Anika slowly opened her eyes and Jhanvi bent down and kissed her forehead.

J- Did you have a good sleep, baccha?

Anika smiled and nodded her head. After few minutes, Anika sat up on the bed and side hugged Jhanvi. Tej also side hugged Anika.

A- When did you both came?

T- Just a few minutes ago. When we reached here, we saw that our princess was sleeping so we were waiting for you to wake up.

Anika smiled and hugged both of them.

J- Beta, are you fine now? Shivaay told us that you were feeling weak.

Anika glared at Shivaay while he just shrugged his shoulders.

A- Its nothing, mom. Shivaay is just over Exaggerating.

Anika showed her tongue to him.

T- But princess, if you were not well then you shouldn't have kept the fast.

S- Exactly. I told her the same.

Jhanvi and Anika looks at each other and sighed in defeat.

J/A- Like father Like son.

Jhanvi and Anika said in unison. Shivaay and Tej made an o shaped mouth.

J- Beta, are you sure you are fine?

A- Yes mom. I'm good.

Jhanvi nods her head.

J- Then let's go and I'll show you all the things we've brought for you.

A- For me?

Anika says excitedly. Jhanvi nods her head. They excitedly head towards the living room.

Tej and Shivaay were sitting in the bedroom.

T- Are you fasting?

Shivaay nods his head.

S-You also?

Tej also nods his head.

T- Have you told Anika that you're fasting?

S- Not yet. I wanted to surprise her.

T- Great. Jhanvi doesn't get surprised anymore. When I refused to have breakfast in the morning making some excuse, she told me ' Tej, if you are keeping the fast then don't pester me whole day that you're hungry. '😂

Shivaay burst into laughter.

S- Because your surprises are old like you.

T- Oh Please! I look more younger than you. You oldie.

Shivaay made an 'o' face.

S- Dad, I think you have many assumptions.

T- Oh really! You believe me or not, I am more younger than you at heart.

S- Ok. Ok. You won. Anyways I am already feeling hungry and I can't argue with you.

T- Good boy. Now let's go and help our ladies.

Shivaay nods his head and they move towards living room where Jhanvi and Anika were preparing their pooja thaal.

Shivaay sat beside Anika and Tej sat beside Jhanvi.

T- Baby, should I help you?

Tej said to Jhanvi and Jhanvi blushed.

J- Stop it, Tej.

T- What? Don't you know 'karwa chauth' is Indian Valentine's Day so we can romance our partners, right.

Jhanvi blushed and Shivika chuckled at them.

A- They are so cute.

S- I know. Don't worry jaan. We will be also like them when we'll get older.

Now it was Anika's turn to blush. Shivaay chuckles at her.

J- Anika beta, I think you should get ready as its already 7:30.

A- Yes mom.

J- I've kept your clothes and jwellery in your room. Ok?

Anika nods her head and went to their room to get ready.

S- Mom! Dad! Actually I've some work so it'll take at least one hour for me to come back. Till then handle her.

J- What is so important, Shivaay?

S- Pretty please.

Jhanvi smiles at him.

J- Ok go but come soon.

Shivaay nods his head and left.

After sometime, Anika got ready. She came out and Tej & Janvi were mesmerized by their daughter's beauty.

Tej & Janvi went towards her with a wide smile.

J- Oh My God! Anika beta you are looking so beautiful.

T- Yes exactly like a princess.

Anika smiles shyly. Jhanvi takes out some kohl from her eyes and puts a dot behind Anika's ear as to protect her from evil eyes.

A- Thank you mom dad.

Her eyes were searching for Shivaay but he was nowhere to be seen. Anika frowns.

A- Mom Dad! Where is Shivaay?

J- Wo...

S- I am here wifey.

J- Thank God! You came Shivaay. Now go fast and get ready because moon is about to come, ok?

S- Ok. (To Anika) Anika, please can you give me my clothes?

T- This boy is good for nothing. Always troubles my daughter.

Shivaay scrunched his nose while Anika and Jhanvi chuckled.

A- Mom Dad you go to terrace, I'll just come.

They nods their head and left to the terrace.

Anika entered the room but she doesn't finds Shivaay.

Suddenly Shivaay came from behind and hugged her.

S- Wifey! You are looking like an ethereal beauty. Extremely beautiful and gorgeous.

Anika blushes to the deepest shade of red.

Shivaay turned her to face him but she wasn't looking in his eyes. Shivaay puts his index finger under her chin and makes her look into his eyes.

S-This blush of yours is making you more beautiful. I don't know about other's moon but my moon has already came.

Shivaay said pointing at Anika's face in the mirror.

Anika smiles shyly. She gently hits on his chest shyly but Shivaay winces in pain.

Anika looks at him worriedly.

A- What happened?

S- Nothing. I think it's shoulder sprain. Don't worry, you go to terrace, I'll just come.

A- Are you sure?

Shivaay nods his head with a smile. Anika smiles and left towards the terrace.

Shivaay got ready and he also left towards the Terrace.

As soon as he reached terrace, he saw Anika arranging the thaali. The pooja which women do on karwa chauth was already done. Now they were waiting for moon to give its appearance so that they can break their fast.

Shivaay went towards Jhanvi and Tej.

S- Mom, if you don't mind, can I take Anika along with me?

J- But beta what about the fast?

S- Mom, we'll break the fast there only.

Jhanvi smiles and nods her head. Shivaay held Anika's hand.

S- Let's go Anika.

A- Arey but where?

S- Don't ask questions jaan. Just take your pooja thaal and let's go.

Anika sighs in defeat and nods her head. She took her pooja thaal and they were about to leave when Tej stopped them.

T- My boy.

Shivaay looks at him.

T- Take my car.

Tej threw his car keys towards Shivaay and Shivaay caught it. Tej winked at him while Shivaay smiles widely.

S- Thanks Dad.

Shivika left from there while Jhanvi was confused.

J- What's going on?

T- Same thing which was going on between us 25 years ago and still going on.

Tej says naughtily while Jhanvi blushes.

J- Tej, You're becoming naughty day by day.

T- Just for you, baby.

They chuckled.
