Chapter 1: Trivedi Dream

Start from the beginning
                                    

Entering the room, it was big. There were many file cabinets and I didn't know what one to take. Then I saw 3 files on the desk that had said "SHIVAAY" and I picked them up and left the room.

I hastily walked up to his bedroom to see a long haired man next to Shivaay. I handed the paperwork to Shivaay to sign and he signed rapidly as if he was in a rush to go somewhere. He handed the files and left in a flash. I looked to the other guy.

Omkara: Hi! You're Annika?

Annika: Yes, and you?

Omkara: I'm Omkara, prefer to be called Om.

Annika: Acha.. I have a question.

Omkara: Before that, how old are you?

Annika: 28...

Omkara: You are older then me so therefore I will call you Annika didi, is that alright?

Annika: There's no need for that, honestly.

Omkara: Didi, I respect everyone. Even you!

Annika: dhanyavad!

Omkara: You're welcome. Anyways, Shivaay hasn't left you to do any work so you want to come with me.

Annika: Kaha pe?

Omkara: To the dining room! It's lunch time and everyone's eating.

Annika: No.. I can't be lazy. Sir will tell me off!

Omkara: DONT worry, I'll make sure he doesn't . You also seem restless so you can eat food and relax.

Annika: I don't know..

Omkara: Please! I insist. You are going to be around all the time so I need to get to know you well!

Annika: Ok om. Let's go!

ANNIKAS POV OVER

Annika and Omkara walk downstairs into the dining room as Om offers her an empty seat. She sits down in pleasure as her nose senses a smell. A good smell - the smell of her favourite food.. ALOO PURI! She licked her lips as Rudra and Dadi laugh at her. She tells them how much she loves Aloo puri as everyone starts cracking up. Dadi then asks Annika to meet her after lunch. Dadi was a sweet person, she was generous, kind, thoughtful.

*lunch is over and everyone leaves*

Annika: Yes Ms.

Dadi: Neh! Don't call me Ms, call me Dadi!

Annika: Ok! Dadi :)

Dadi: I want you to feel as if this is your house too, you are going to be here everyday so you need to consider everyone here your family!

Annika: Kis tarah?

Dadi: Rudra, Om and Priyanka are going to call you didi from now on! You are their older sister now :)

Annika: Really? That's really sweet!

Dadi: Tum mujhe dadi kahoge!

Annika: *tears fall down* I've never had someone be so caring to me..

Dadi: roo mat, ham apkya parivaar hain!

They smile

Shivaay entrees the house to see Annika in Dadi's arms crying. He wonders why she's crying and what she is doing. He suddenly decides to break the thoughts and questions.

Shivaay: Dadi? Why.. what's going on?

Dadi: Annika is part of this family now! She's gonna be here all the time and we are her family.

Shivaay: Ridiculous, the guards, khanna, maids, servants are here all the time. Do we consider them family!

Dadi: But Annika is special, shes like the daughter in law we need in this family. A sister to everyone or a daughter.

Shivaay: What-whatever. *storms off*

Dadi: DONT worry about him, he can become very angry. If he troubles you ever, come to me!

Annika: Acha Dadi, Dhanuvad!

Dadi: Now come with me, I have some work for you!

Annika follows Dadi into Priyankas room. Priyanka is sitting on the edge of her bed studying for her classes. Dadi tells Annika to stay the night as she wants to get along with the family. Annika hesitates but priyanka and Dadi beg until she has no option. Annika borrows priyankas pyjamas and they have a girls night. They decided to watch a movie when Rudra interrupts them.

Rudra: HMMM

Priyanka: Kyaa he?

Rudra: Having a hang out without me?

Priyanka: GIRLS NIGHT ONLY Bhaya!

Rudra: I want to spend time with my new didi too!

Annika smiles!

Rudra: Didi, please tell Priyanka to let me join!

Annika: Awh, let him join!

Priyanka: FINE!

Rudra: YES! COME ON DIDI!

Annika: kaha pe?

Rudra: To the poolside! I HAVE A GAME READY FOR ALL OF US!

Priyanka: All of us?

Rudra: Ha! Shivaay bhaya, Om Bhaya, Annika didi, and you priyanka!

Annika: Arah vaa! Everything is sorted!

PRECAP
Rudra grabs Annika and Priyanka and takes them to the poolside. There is fruit punch, loads is snacks, a stereo and games.
Everyone joins, Shivaay sits down and so does everyone else. Rudra offers punch to all of them and they have a lot until they are wasted!
