Hosh walon ko khabar kya
be khudi kya cheez hai,
Ishq kijiye phir samjhiye,
zindagi kya cheez hai!!"

"Mumma?"

"Hnji?"

"I wuv you!!"

(I love you)

Nandini looked at her daughter with a surprised face which was replaced by a big smile as she took her daughter in her lap and hugged her closely.

"I love you more, bacha!!"

Anahita giggled in happiness and looked at the kids playing in the park, while she sat with her mother under a tree. She then looked back at her mother and cupped her cheeks with her small palms.

"Mumma!!"

"Yes?"

"You are cute!!" Nandini was surprised but chuckled and hold Anahita's cheeks in her hand.

"No, you're cutest." Anahita frowned and pouted before shaking her head.

"No Mumma, you don't know. You are cute."

"But for me, you're cute!!" Nandini replied smilingly as she was enjoying her expressions.

"No. You are."

"Ok, let's do one thing, on the count of three, whoever says it first is right, okay?" Anahita bobbed her head in yes and Nandini started the countdown.

"3. 2."

"You are cute!!"

"But I didn't even finished counting." Nandini argued and Anahita frowned.

"Ok let's do it again, this time whoever blinks first is the cutest, okay?" Anahita again bobbed her head and Nandini chuckled when she opened her eyes wide.

"Let's stat Mumma." Nandini too opened her eyes looking at her daughter, who blinked in next three seconds.

"Okay fine! I am more cute. Okay?" Nandini chuckled at her drama and tickled her which made Anahita laughed out aloud, which brought instant smile on Nandini's face.

Nandini stopped tickling Anahita abruptly when she felt someone standing ahead of them because of the shadows falling on her. Her gaze fell on three pair of shoes and as her eyes traveled above, the smile on her face disappeared and she sat straight.

Anahita too saw the change in her mother's posture and looked above to find the same three men, whom she saw the other day when her mother had cried silently in her room. She huffed and her instant reaction was to hide Nandini with her small figure and she put her mother's face in her chest.

Her this act surprised the three men who looked at her adoringly yet with pain. Do their sister need to be protected by them too, they wondered.

Nandini's heart swelled with love for her daughter. She broke the hug with her and smiled assuringly at her but the frowns on Anahita's face were still there.
