You Are My love (Edited)

Chapter 41

Let's consider something like this Ayan's dinning hall interior look pristine, eye-catching where they all have gathered around.

*******

Through the intercom Ayan Instructed to let Avni in. And there was no reason remained for the concierge not to allow them all to proceed towards the elevator. Blowing out a hefty sigh the man took his seat back with a straight face and they walked past him.

Ayan was at the door with a face antsy, waiting for Avni to be arrived. His eyes bored at the sound the elevator door dinged opened halting at his floor. And then it took him just a second when he caught sight of all of them few steps away behind Avni.

"Happy Birthday" all said in chorus as soon as they ambled to him out of the elevator. Their voices resonated around the space made Ayan a bit taken aback. He didn't expect the day would end this way or rather say the day another might start with a note this jovial. Because it's already 12a.m then.

"Hey" his low voice. Ayan released out all his anxiousness in a single word he had grown since Avni has called him.
His arms crossed over his chest now, in a manner so-this-was-the-plan-and-vindication-so-eager-to-meet-me-at-this-hour?

Ayan couldn't hold back anymore, a moment past all his desolation faded off his countenance. His face glowed with a bright smile on his lips when they reached him and all huddled around him. And Then next moment his hands are around Aravi.
Because Aravi is the first who embraced him wishing again hugging him tightly.

"Hollygod! Don't tell me you have already opened those parcels" muttering Aravi jerked away her hold off Ayan and scurried passed him inside his home totally dodging him. Her eyes apprehensive, wary in search of those loaded boxes. No one really can predict Aravi and her next move. This is what Ayan thought about her inwardly.

"I was about to......
Wait, how do you know about those parcels....don't tell me...." His words lost in some incoherent mumbling got him left the sentence incomplete after Aravi.
His face formed a deep, perplexed frown snapping his eyes at the way Aravi left just when he realised what she muttered parting away.

Ayan pulled his face back straight when Shivam greeted him with a brotherly hug which earned his frown faded and his look hugging his cousin was like_what-the-hell- you-guys-are-on. And next moment his face softened at Neil who clasped his hand with him passing a tight smile and in reply Ayan returned a small appreciating node.

"Those are all cakes..." after Neil passed by Aman quickly replied giving him a quick bro hug then parted walking in.

"All Four? Are you kidding me?" Ayan's words again behind Aman. He let out a snap being unsure.

"They are all from your closed ones..." Neela asserted in a motherly affectionate tone putting a hand on his cheek one side before Ayan followed them walking in as well.

"Juhi sent one...." leaning to him Avni surreptitiously whispered and Ayan put his face impassive only his eyes studied her shortly and then he looked away with a manner uninterested. Lastly Sweta followed by two elder males_ Prakash and Reyaansh walked in before Ayan locked the entrance after them while Avni waited for Ayan few feet away him. She had seen Neil walked passed her along with the rest. She gave him a bashful smile and he returned a faint one. She found herself grumpy eyeing at Neil's back and then turned her head abruptly to face Ayan.

"Don't make faces you liked it already I know" Avni's words were with a low giggle. He let out a light scoff.

"What's the point in sending cakes in parcel by some delivery boys when they know they would be here next minute by any means?" Ayan wanted to ask this question to Avni but the name she mentioned, shut him up not jumping into any conversation further regarding those parcel thing.
