Uth ja gadhi ...nahi toh ek aur stupid sa alarm baje ga!"

She moved her lips a bit ,without opening her eyes ,she opened her arms for him,and he let himself free in her arms."mera rot-da puttu...", she spoke in a heavy morning voice.

"I love you ", Sidahrth said.He was a man of nearly 40 ,who felt so loved ,whenever she,a woman of 27 , would call him a baby.He loved being "babied" by her.It was a proof to the love she had for him


Shehnaaz picked up the phone,as it rung.it was Sidharth's mom.

"Hnji maa"

"Us gadhe ka phone kidr hai...off kyu hai..."

Shehnaaz felt embarrassed, well it was his mother.

"Chal usko phone de...meko maloom hai tere paas hai raat se!",Rita spoke. and she passed him the phone ,pouting


"Kya hua ", Shehnaaz asked.

"Mom said that two of us should better sleep in my room, so that she does not have to worry for us,and second she Said to move our asses to my place, because mom has apparently made us breakfast!"






"Good morning ma...",Shehnaaz spoke as Rita opened the door to apartment.

"Kaisa hai mera baccha...aur yeh kya ma bhi bolna hai aur aise gayab bhi ho jana hai?",she questioned Shehnaaz.

"Nahi ma..." Shehnaaz tried saying but Rita interrupted her ," us gadhe se lado Ya jo marzi hai karo,but mai toh ma hu na..aur ma se door nahi jaate!"

Mothers are infinity creatures. Well that may be true or not .But Rita for sure was.She was a spiritually inclined higher soul who had an understanding of the dimensions of universe.She knew  love was the language all beings understood and it was the emotion all beings craved for .Eversince her journey on a soulful path had started, she had practiced giving love as much as possible and Shehnaaz , a sweet young girl, full of love for others wasn't exactly difficult to love. In fact ,Shehnaaz was  someone who could be loved with an absolute ease





"Kya ban raha hai...", Sidharth questioned as he entered after taking a bath.

"Waise toh Poha...but teri Shehnaaz k liye bread toast!", his sister Preeti teased with the personal pronoun

Sidahrth raised his eyebrow ,but a sweet smile crept over,as his cheeks turned pink.

"Omg ,pri trust me Shehnaaz ne koi toh jaadu kia hai...i could never imagine Sidharth blush!", Romi preeti 's husband continued with the banter.

Families are made in moments they spend together. As a growing child ,Shehnaaz had never had a first hand witness to such bonding.Her family couldn't exactly be called a family,but this ,the new family of hers ,with Shukla's was her family .She knew it ,her mind had called them so .








"Sidharth come on dude...its almost a wrap .Abhi kuch din me we'll be done with shoot, chal tu bhi saath me ,we'll all party ...", his co actor and a sort of friend from earlier days said.

"Really Siddharth...i didn't know you were such  a not so party person ,trust me I thought you were the opposite!", Rumi joined in .

The first segment shoot for the upcoming series was almost done ,hence the team had decided to party.They were insistent though Sidharth didn't want to.

"Oh!you won't believe what a drastic change Sidharth has come through. He was so wild , always on hunt ....solid player. Infact all of us were so jealous of him.",Arjun added.

"Arey really...such a bad that I didn't meet that Sidharth...he'd have been fun.But I must admit that Sidharth is still a charm", Rumi spoke.Of course she was  a little girl in awe of the man that she had seen Sidharth be.He was this dream ,she could have envisioned, but than he was all here ,real .Rumi couldn't help but be drawn to him
