Jeevika enters Sanskar's room holding a coffee mug. She smiles seeing him sleeping peacefully with a cute smile playing on his lips. She moves towards the bed and sits beside him placing the coffee mug on the bed side table.

Jeevika: (caressing his hair) Babu wake up.

Sanskar moves in sleep and smiles lightly remembering how his di ma used to wake him the same way before her marriage. He opens his eyes and looks at her smiling.

Sanskar: Good Morning Di ma!

Wishing her he places his head on her lap but couldn't properly due to her belly. He pouts and gets up.

Sanskar: Champ this is so unfair you know.

He say putting his hand on her belly. A kick from baby makes both of them smile.

Jeevika: I swear Babu your voice is enough for him to start kicking me. He really loves you so much.

Sanskar grins.

Sanskar: Of course he loves me. I am his one and only the best Mamu. Hain na champ?

Again a kick. Jeevika looks at Sanskar giving a look 'See I told you'. Sanskar giggles. He sits and kisses her forehead. Jeevika smiles.

Jeevika: But why are you so sure it's him and not her?

She asks as he always calls the baby champ and him. He doesn't let anybody to say it's her.

Sanskar: It's mamu nephew connection. You won't understand.

Again kick.

Jeevika: (with wide eyes) I am sure you will be his favourite.

Sanskar grins and nods. Jeevika smiles.

Jeevika: So what are the plans?

Sanskar: Aren't you bored of sitting idol?

Jeevika: (pouts) So much. Your jiju and your wife are over caring that they aren't letting me to even take a water glass from the table in the room.

Sanskar chuckles.

Sanskar: That is the reason I planned for this Babu and Di ma day when they are not there. They will not come till tomorrow. Let's do all the things you want to. So first what you want to do?

Jeevika: (with shining eyes) Let's cook together. It's been so long we both did some cooking together.

Sanskar: Your wish my command ma'am. Give me fifteen minutes will get fresh and come.

Jeevika giggles and nods okay. She points at the coffee mug and goes from there getting up from the bed. Ragini and Viren has went to meeting out of station. So Sanskar has taken leave from office giving all the work to his father asking him to manage things for a day and decided to spend his whole day with his di ma.

He enters inside Jeevika's room after getting freshen up and ending his call with Ragini.

Sanskar: Di ma!

He looks for her but doesn't find her. He moves towards the balcony to see her standing there and watching into the garden. He smiles and stands beside her.

Sanskar: What are you doing here di ma?

Jeevika: (looking at the garden) Just remembering how we used to plant together every now and then. It's been three years we actually planted a plant. You remember the last plant we planted together was exactly the day before you went out of station before the incident?

She says showing a rose plant which they planted together. He smiles and nods.

Jeevika: Let's plant one today. I miss planting them.

Sanskar nods with smile.

Jeevika: (turns to him) Why are you silent?

He looks at her and hugs her immediately.

Sanskar: I missed you so much.

He says with teary eyes. Jeevika caresses his hair with teary eyes.

Jeevika: It was all my fault.

He breaks the hug and shakes his head. He wipes her tears away.

Sanskar: Let's forget it. Now that I am very hungry and Santha kaki being the saviour as always had made breakfast. So let's have breakfast and then some cooking time. What say?

Before she could answer she feels a kick from her baby.

Jeevika: (smiles and shakes her head) He is answering you anyway.

She shrugs while Sanskar chuckles. He holds her hand and helps her in walking. They both get settled for the breakfast and Sanskar serves for both of them. He was about to have but stops and looks at her. She smiles and feeds him which he had grinning happily. Soon they enter into the kitchen.

Sanskar: (rubbing his palms together) So the order Di ma?

He says and she chuckles.

Jeevika: You make whatever you want to Babu. I like everything you make. And for you I am going to make your favourite cake.

She says smiling for which he hugs her tight.

Sanskar: You are the best!

He breaks the hug. She smiles and kisses his forehead lovingly.

Sanskar: So let's cherish some childhood moments while cooking then.

Jeevika: (already taking the ingredients) The first time I thought to learn cooking and came to kitchen.

Sanskar: The worst day! You cut your finger badly.

He says cutting vegetables.

Jeevika: Oh see who is talking? You still cut your fingers while cutting vegetables.

She makes faces. Sanskar laughs.

Jeevika: You remember you cried like you got cut on that day. Dad and me had to do lots of efforts to console you. It was really hard.

She says remembering how much he cried on that day. Sanskar remembers that and laughs.

Sanskar: And what about you? When I fell down from bicycle on first day while learning. You didn't let me learn it for next five months. All the three stupid friends of mine already learnt it perfectly and I had to keep requesting you and finally after so many months you accepted. You are stubborn.

He makes faces. Jeevika opens her mouth wide and hits his back making him laugh. She laughs following him. They both keep remembering their childhood memories and does their cooking. Sanskar completes cooking her favourite curry and parathas.

Sanskar: I am ready with your favourite dish. You?

He asks looking at her.

Jeevika: Icing the cake is left. You go and wait for two minutes I will get the cake.

Sanskar: Arey Why should I go? I will stand here. You continue.

Jeevika: Who is elder? You or me?

Sanskar rolls his eyes and goes to dining table. Jeevika chuckles. She then does icing. Once done with icing she carefully brings the cake and places it on the dining table. Sanskar who was talking to Dp in phone looks at her and moves towards her cutting the call. He looks at the cake and gets surprised seeing 'Happy Birthday Babu' on it.

Sanskar: Di ma?

Jeevika: (cups his face) I missed your two birthdays. It's like compensation from my side. I know those days can't be returned back but just a small satisfaction for me. So please.

He smiles and nods. She gives him knife and he cuts the cake. He then feeds her. She also feeds him.

Jeevika: I promise there will be no birthday where you will not have your di ma beside you. And as always it will be your di ma who will bake a cake for you.

Sanskar smiles and kisses the back of her palms.

Sanskar: This birthday My champ will also be there with me.

He says excited.

Jeevika: Or you may say he might be coming to the world on that day only.

Sanskar smiles happily and nods.

Sanskar: I will be the most happiest person in the world then.

He says happily.

Jeevika: You don't know how much excited I felt when doctor gave the due date on that day. I literally screamed when she mentioned the date.

She chuckles.

Sanskar: Ragini ka asar!

He chuckles. Jeevika hits him lightly and they both laugh. He side hugs her kissing her head lovingly.

*****

Sanskar: No not that one this one di ma.

Jeevika: But this one is beautiful. I want this one only.

Sanskar: No No No... I want to buy that only.

Jeevika: It's for my son so I will buy this one only.

She says twisting her lips.

Sanskar: Oh hello! He is my nephew so I will buy this one only.

They both are fighting to buy which colour dress. Sanskar wants to buy white one while Jeevika wants to buy green one.

Sales Man: Ma'am sir you can buy both. We don't have any problem.

Sanskar and Jeevika: (together) Shut Up!

Sales man gets scared and goes away from there. Jeevika and Sanskar again get back to their argument.

Sanskar: Okay let's ask my Champ only.

He says and twists his lips.

Sanskar: (Putting his hand on her belly) Champ you say White one right?

The baby kicks.

Sanskar: See see... he kicked you. It means he wants white colour dress. So I won.

Jeevika: (with frown eyes) Did you ask him about green? No! Cheater kahinka.

Sanskar: Whatever! He said he wants white and we are going to buy white. That's all. Final!

Saying he moves to counter twisting his lips. Finally Jeevika gives up and they buy white one while Sanskar grins at his victory.

Jeevika: Stubborn idiot!

She murmurs. Sanskar chuckles and takes another bag. He gives it to her and signs her to open. She opens and sees the same green dress. She laughs and hugs him.

Jeevika: I missed fighting with you.

Sanskar: Me too!

He says chuckling. They both get settled in the car again talking about their childhood arguments and laughing at their childishness.

****

Sanskar and Jeevika entered home holding the shopping bags. They get settled on the couch.

Sanskar: I am very hungry!

He says lazily. Jeevika laughs seeing him.

Jeevika: What do you want to have?

Sanskar: (excited) Let's finish the cake you baked in the morning.

Saying he runs to kitchen and gets the cake. They both have it happily not leaving a piece to anybody who are at home.

Sanskar: You want to take rest di ma?

Jeevika: Nah! Let's do some planting.

Sanskar: Red roses!

He says jumping from the couch and helping Jeevika walking. They move towards the garden and he makes Jeevika sit on the bench. He then starts planting talking to her and also taking her help.

Jeevika: Babu!

He looks at her.

Jeevika: You are happy right?

Sanskar smiles. He dusts his hands and sits beside her. He side hugs her.

Sanskar: No I am not happy di ma... I ma the HAPPIEST!

He says stressing the word 'HAPPIEST' with bright smile on his face. Jeevika stares him for few seconds and then smiles. She kisses his forehead lovingly. He smiles at her.

Jeevika: What's the next plan?

Sanskar: You say di ma. What do you want us to do?

Jeevika: Let's go for dinner. Sibling dinner time!

Sanskar: Done but let's have some rest then we will go. Chalo.

He says standing from the bench. She smiles and gets up with his help and they both move inside the house. He helps her to lay on the bed. He sits beside her and caresses her hair.

Sanskar: Champ must be saying 'mumma please take some rest I am sleepy'.

Jeevika chuckles. Sanskar smiles.

After sometime both get ready and go to their favourite restaurant. Sanskar made Jeevika sit at one of the tables and went to attend the call. By the time he return he saw three persons around his di ma whom he can clearly identify. He fumes and goes towards them.

Sanskar: You idiots. One day Just one day can't you leave my di ma and me alone?

The three Idiots of Sanskar's life, Ahana, Shravan and Vinay, look at him innocently.

Sanskar: (whines) This is so mean guys! So mean! I really hate you.

Jeevika laughs listening him. While all the three shake their head. They get up from the place and go from there giving him a hit on his head each one. Sanskar pouts and looks at Jeevika who is still giggling.

Sanskar: Laugh laugh. Let my champ come I will show you hell.

Jeevika laughs more.

Sanskar: And why the hell were they here? How did they know that we are here?

Jeevika: They are actually leaving. They are partying in Vinay's house. You said no it seems. They came to fetch some food for them.

Sanskar: Oh... and I was thinking that they came here to spoil my day with you.

He pouts.

Jeevika: You really think that?

She asks with frown.

Sanskar: (shakes his head vigorously) No... but you know I love to show my Possessiveness towards you when they are around us.

He smiles sheepishly. Jeevika chuckles. Sanskar also laughs along with her. Soon the order arrives and they have their food remembering their moments with Dp in childhood. Soon they leave home after having some street walk with their ice cream as demanded by Jeevika.

Sanskar: Di ma how was the day?

Jeevika: (smiles) A day with my babu is always awesome.

Sanskar grins. He then cups her face.

Sanskar: (cupping Jeevika's face) It has been a long day for both of us. You must be really very tired. Now go to sleep. Good night di ma. Love You!

He kisses her forehead. She smiles and nods wishing him good night. He leaves to his room and sleeps after texting 'Good Night' to Ragini.
