After dinner we went to the living room to see Rehan and Dhruv playing chess.

"Checkmate." Dhruv Bhai said in a straight voice.

"You cheated." Rehan accused him.

"I did not. You can ask dad or Bhai. "

"Argh. " He pulled his hair in frustration.
"Fine"

Arya could not contain her giggle.

"Can I play?" She asked politely.

Everyone in the room looked at her in surprise.

"Arya. I'm saying this because I love you. Dhruv  has never lost on a game of chess. " Mahika told her.

"Well there is a first time for everything right? "

"What do you say Bhai? Ready for a game or are you afraid to lose ? "

He gave me a slight smirk.

Let's start the game shall we.

Checkmate. I declared

Again , the eyes of everyone in the room was on me. But this time the surprise was replaced by awe.

"What? How ? "

"I'm the State level champion in chess."

Everyone gaped at her.

"Hell ya. My wife won a game of chess against you." Rehan said pointing to Dhruv nyt the hour. "
"I can die happily now. "

God I always knew there must be some reason we married.

Well played.

Same to you too.

Me and Mahi was lying on the bed exhausted.

Bhabhi was sitting on the chair reading something.

She has become close to the ladies during their time together.
Even Mahika. She grows on people.

I'm bored. Mahika announced.

"Hello bored I'm Arya" I replied her extending my arms.

Bhabhi laughed at that.

"Ha ha. Very funny. "
"

I'm serious. "

"And I'm voldemort." This time bhabhi joined in.

"Argh. I'm so done with you guys. "

We giggled at her antics.

"I have a question. "

"Here we go. " Bhabhi muttered pinching her nose.

"How are unicorns fake and giraffes real. Like think about it.
What is more believable? A horse with a horn or a leopard-moose-camel with a 40 fool neck. "

" What the hell. " I looked at her in shock.

"That's it. Mahi you are going to sleep.'
