Siya
That day we spent all our time just having romance like crazy there was no place left in that penthouse that we didn’t make it out, it sounds dirty but it’s true, I can’t believe how romantically my date went with Karan. It was just perfect. Everything becomes good between us. But that was five years back, and so much has been changed now but gratefully.
Sunny is in the Us with my cousin Sanaya, they both are so good at hiding their relationship for quite a long, I came to know about them a couple of years back when Sunny finally told me that she said yes to him and she is none other than Saranya, they didn’t let me get any hints of their love in any way whenever I saw them together. I never thought that they can be together for real; Not complaining, just shocked but super happy for them.
Kaya is in Cape Town, South Africa, the Native home of Daniel, No, no no, she doesn’t love him or something, neither did Danny confessed his feelings for her, it just that after she completes her graduation in BA she received a job offer through her college campus which was sponsored by Daniel’s company, no doubt, he left no attempt to stay close with her as much as he can, only the fun fact is Kaya still doesn’t know the company is working for his Daniel’s, he told me and Karan not to let Kaya know about this and we agreed. After her breakup with Jay when she caught him red-handed with a random girl, she decided not to fall in love again though she is moving on, perfectly, thanks to the job that Danny gave her.
Maa and Thakur sa have retired completely from the work and now spend their entire time, playfully with Esha and Veer. Yes, you heard right, Veer, Son of Karan, and mine. Veer is just three years old but very naughty, he is the perfect mixture of Karan and me which I was glad about because I know when he will grow up he will be kind like me and handsome like his dad.
Karan titled the best businessman in the country by an international magazine so he works hard every day to hold that title every year but it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t give us enough time just like the best businessman, he is the best son, husband, and dad as well and Esha and Veer are his life, he takes them to parks and movies in the weekends and sometimes even to his important business trips to foreign. He makes sure to love me every night like it’s our first night and if he is tired, he gives me tons of kisses before bed so I don’t feel bad that he hasn’t romance with me which I never feel.
I felt a spark on my skin when Karan suddenly started to kiss me from behind as he put his hand around my waist when I was putting on a golden earring, “What are you doing?!” I asked.
“Kissing you, my darling, ” He says, continuing to do so. I laughed.
“Stop it, what if anyone saw us?!”
“I don’t care, I am just loving my wife not doing anything wrong, ” He trails.
“I see…”
“Mommy! Daddy! Come on! My friends are here already!” Esha said as we didn’t feel her presence in the room.
“Excuse me, Princess, how many times do I need to tell you to knock before entering.” Karan scolds her playfully.
She crosses her hand, “But I am a princess I don’t need permission, do I?”
Karan raises his brow at her attitude, “Ohh, you are forgetting the fact that we are your parents, alright?”
She rolls her eyes, “I remember but You guys don’t that today is my birthday and my friends here with gifts, let’s cut the cake fast!” She says, pouting.
“Seems like you are excited more about gifts than your birthday, ” I joked.
“Of course, Mom, gifts are the best!”
“Now, go down to your Dadi, Dadu, and Veer, we’ll be there in a few minutes, “Karan told her as she nodded before she ran away to the garden where her 9th birthday party is going. She has now started to address Karan and me as ‘Mom’ and ‘Dad’ because it doesn’t make her feel the loneliness of her real Mom.
(Dadi = Grandma)
(Dadu= Grandpa)
“So you said you don’t care,” I taunt Karan.
He gave me a playful glare, “I still don’t, okay?” He defended.
“Whatever now, we should go before she comes again,” I said, pushing Karan out of the room as I followed him right after.
We wandered off to the garden, noticing that guests were starting to arrive, we greeted them when a familiar figure came into my sight.
My eyes flickered and my lips stretched into a smile, “Vishal?” I called him.
He glanced at me, mirroring my expression. Vishal is now a principal/ math teacher in a school where Esha studies, for her Vishal, is the best teacher, of course, Karan offered him the job back in his company as manager after we got to know Rhea fired him but he declined and decided to spend his time teaching, and building an affordable school for poor where Karan donated a huge amount of money for him to buy stationery items and uniforms for the kids. He married Karan’s ex-secretary, Rena though she apologized to us for helping Rhea with her dirty work, she said she had no idea about Rhea’s real intention but she was so blind behind money that she never tried to know why Rhea was trying to do it with us. So Karan forgave her as Vishal and Reena started their new life together. They have a 2-years-old daughter.
“Hey, Siya, you still look the same.” He says, giving me a side hug and then Rena.
“Hello, she is my wife!” Karan friendly protested as he placed his hand on my waist, making him laugh.
“Unfortunately, ” he muttered under his breath.
“Excuse me??” Karan questions.
When Vishal changes his line, “I asked, how are you both doing?”
“We are fine, what about you two?” Karan asks.
“We are doing great, just Richa cries all day not giving me relief, ” Rena says, gesturing to her sleeping baby daughter in her arms.
“Aww, my situation is no less than you, Veer always hurts himself while playing and cries all day, ” I said.
“When Sunny and Sanaya are coming back? They both have literally given me a shock by being in a serious relationship, I don’t expect from Sunny, he was more like a one-night stand guy, ” Vishal says, smiling, earning a glare from Karan.
“Are you calling my brother a player??”
Vishal gulps, correcting himself, “No, I mean-” when Karan cuts him off.
“I am just joking don’t worry, I thought the same about Sunny.”
We laughed as I said, “I called Sanaya yesterday she said she would be here next month after her studies get complete there, ”
“Ohh great, I can’t wait to meet our gang again, ” Vishal said with a grin,” Coming to the study what about you, Siya?”
I sighed, rolling my eyes in tired, “I am in the second last year of BA English so it’s going okay since I need to focus on Esha and Veer’s studies and the ‘Kae’ dance school too, ”
I didn’t know if I can study again that too after marriage but when Maa sa came to know her mistake of educating Adah instead of me, she forced me to finish my graduation and I wasn’t able to say no to her plus the ‘Kae’ dance school teaches all types of dances in the honor of late Anjali, it stands for ‘Karan, Anjali, Esha’ Aka ‘Kae’ I decided to open it to encourage young girls and guys to learn something new.
“Karan! Siya!” Rajeev waved his hand to get our attention, we waved back, indicating him to join us, seeing Ronnie and Jia with him as well. After he shifted to London, he moved on completely from his past of Rhea.
“Hey, guys!” He says, walking towards us.
“Hey, hii Ron and Jia, ” We greeted them.
“Hii, Aunty where is Esha?” Jia asks, over the years these two girls have become close best friends.
“With your Nani and Nanu, ” I told her. She nodded and ran away with Ron.
(Nani= maternal grandmother)
(Nanu- maternal grandfather)
Maa sa and Thakur sa are parents of Rhea so in that way they are Nani, Nanu to Ron, and Jia instead of Dadu and Dadi.
“Great to meet you, ” Rajeev said.
“Same here, ” As we talked about business and stuff he also said that he is finding another woman who can be the perfect mother of his children when Maa sa came.
“Karan, Siya, my dear we should do the cake cutting ceremony because your lovely daughter just can’t be patient enough, ” Maa sa told us.
“Sure, ” Karan and I said in unison as Vishal and Rena followed us.
“Mommy, Daddy, you took time, ” Esha protests.
“Princess we are here now so you better cut the cake, ” Karan told her when She rolled her eyes sadly, “What happened?” He asks.
“Dad, Uncle Sunny and Aunt Kaya ain’t here, I am not feeling so happy without them, ”
Karan lips lifted in a smirk, “Huh… That’s my princess’s wish? No problem, ” he clapped his hand in the air, indicating at the butlers to set up, we were confusingly glancing at them, setting a projector.
Karan switched on the projector and connected to something, suddenly Sunny and Kaya came on the screen, “Hey!! Guys!!!” They said together.
“Uncle and Aunty!!” Esha yelled in happiness.
“Hello, Bday girl!” Sunny waves his hand to her, “Missing us?”
“So much!” Esha squeals, “but how is it possible?” She asks.
“Your Sunny uncle knows that you must be missing me so-” he gets cut off by Karan’s dead glare.
“Oh, you mean to say, Sunny, that’s your plan?” Karan questions, glaring.
“Of course, not, Bro, I meant you, her dad planned everything-”
“So the family can be complete tonight, ” he completed when Esha hugged him.
“Thank you, daddy!’ She says.
“Eshu, now since everyone is here, cut the cake, ” Thakur sa said, carrying Veer in his hand.
We sang the birthday song for her as she blew the candles, cutting the cake, she feeds her Dadu, Dadi, and then Karan and me, we kissed her cheeks hard when we heard Karan saying.
“Cheese…..!” He takes the family selfie with a bright smile turning around to the projector so he can capture Sunny and Kaya too. We all grinned repeated ‘Cheese’ and gave our best pose for the picture.
This is the start of our happy ending.
