Anika dragged him towards their room and opened his blindfold after opening the door. Shivaay opened his eyes slowly and noticed his room is decorated with flowers and balloons. He turned and noticed there were many pictures of him from his childhood till now. He noticed there were many pictures of his mother as well. He smiled when Omru and Priyanka hugged him and wished him a happy birthday

"Thank you", Shivaay said and hugged them back with a smile. Anika walked out of the room and came inside with a cake after a minute. Omru and Priyanka gave him his gift which looked very expensive. Shivaay asked them why they brought it so they told him that it was their wish. Anika looked down as her gift will be free according to them. She looked at them with a fake smile and asked him to cut the cake. Just then Janvi, Tej and dadi too entered the room which bring a smile to his face. She is happy that even Tej came to wish him. Hope he doesn't create any scene here

"I think I should confirm it first", Anika thought and walked towards Tej

"Thank you so much bade papa for staying awake", Anika thanked him with a smile. Tej just hummed and moved aside with an attitude like he just came here to show his face. Anika was hurt but covered her face with a smile again. She know she should not ruin his birthday when she asked him to celebrate.

Shivaay called Anika to cut the cake with him but she denied

"Bhaiya why are you asking us to help you? Cake cutting is not that much difficult just move your knife softly", Rudra said gesturing to him through his finger showing how to cut the cake. Everyone laughed hearing him as Shivaay acted like a child who doesn't know how to cut a cake. Shivaay glared at him and cut the cake himself. Everyone cheered for him and wished him happy birthday again

Shivaay made Priyanka eat cake first and then Omru as the trio were standing near him. Then he turned towards Anika and made her eat cake. Anika passed a smile towards him as his smile and happiness is very precious. No one knows how emotional he is when it comes to his mother and past. She wants to make his future bright with no sad moments especially because of her

After that, he feeds cake to other family members. After 10 minutes everyone left to sleep. Anika locked the door and started cleaning the mess created by Rudra in excitement to put the cake on his face but Shivaay saved himself as well as the cake. She noticed Shivaay picking gifts from the table and realised she didn't show him her gift yet

"I...I will give you a gift till afternoon or evening", Anika told and stand up after cleaning the room. Shivaay placed gifts inside the cupboard without opening any and sat back on the bed

"To be honest I am not a person who likes gifts, Anika. I earn enough to buy what I want. I care for people, not gifts. People may like their birthdays and gifts but I just want their time not anything else. Sometimes you reach that place where you hate a few things but can't say it a loud because of your love for family. I already asked you not to waste money on something which I can buy ", Shivaay said and closed his eyes remembering his mother who used to make his favourite dish on his birthday, rather than gifting him expensive things she used to take him out for rides. He doesn't remember many birthdays but one where he enjoyed his life to the fullest. She gave him one handmade tiny shoe as well as a sweater which he loved

Anika noticed his expression which changed into sad again. She turned his face towards her and wiped his tears

"If you will get emotional then how will I show you my gift? I was going to gift you something free because I made it and something I wanted to buy but seems like you will not like what I will buy so one gift is left. To see that first smile", Anika demanded. Shivaay smiled and nodded. He is loving her childish and talkative attitude as well. In the initial days, she was not much comfortable here, so she talked up to the point but now he is discovering her real self
