"I miss my babies" The older woman sniffed and Janani tried her best to console her weeping mother and deeply troubled father as the three of them were on a video call

Her adoptive parents have returned back after their two week vacation to an empty home

Janani hadn't informed them about her trip to Mumbai as she didn't want to spoil their much needed vacation

"Maa..Advi is Armaan's son and the poor guy has been searching for him for months" Janani pointed out

Janani was feeling sick with shame at having hidden so much from her adoptive parents and she did not feel upto the challenge of telling them the truth

They would be horrified if they knew she was pretending to be her dead sister and faking being Advi's mother

No arguments from her side would persuade them that such dishonesty was justified

Her father is a retired school headmaster for heaven sake ,and if he knew his own daughter is a part of such a horrific behaviour, he would be heavily disappointed

"I believe he will be a good father.He had asked me along because he knows Advi is deeply attached to me and he didn't want him to be hurt by me suddenly disappearing from his life" Janani added when her mother continued to sniff softly

He will be a good father, when he comes out of hiding ,whatever it is he hiding from , Janani thought

"Well .That's very responsible of him" her mother conceded finally

"How is his family responding to the child??" Her father asked

"There is no much family. It's only the two brothers" Janani said and her mother gasped

"Janani Trivedi...are you telling me you are staying with two unmarried men at their house alone??" Her mother asked scandalised at the very idea

"Maa....I'm not alone. There is an army of staff here and then there is Shantima" Janani continued to inform her mother of who all are there at the house which calmed her mother a little

"Okay then. Where is this little cutie pie you were talking about. Show me .. show me" her mother was back to her usual chirpy behaviour at the thought of meeting little Ava and her beloved Advi

After the call Janani proceeded with a video call to Richa who was working in the admin department in the nursery Janani used to teach

Richa made her talk to her little students who were all so eager to see Advi and was happy to meet Ava

And Ava was equally enthusiastic

"You know, there is fine line between brilliant recluse and a nutcase hermit " Aadesh said barging into his cabin making Armaan frown

"I'm not a hermit" Armaan said vehemently

"So you agree you are a recluse" Aadesh grinned

"Neither am I a recluse " Armaan scowled at his younger brother

"You could have fooled me" Aadesh took a seat across him

He had holed up in his office for the past four days returning home at midnight and leaving early in the morning for the sole purpose of avoiding she who shouldn't me mentioned

"What are you doing here?? Don't you have any work??" Armaan asked irritated

Aadesh opened his mouth to respond but was cut off by the loud burp that came out of his mouth
