"But why should she wake you? Now you should wake yourself. not only this from now onwards you will do your own work. and I asked the driver. from now onwards he will drop you and pick you." Abhimanyu said, and went from there.
Saira looked towards the kids, seeing their sad faces. She felt to hug them but she ignored and went from there.
They felt sad, and went from there to the room.
After some time,
"Aunt it's not tasty." Shaurya said, taking a bite.
"Because I didn't make you both like outside food so just ordered from there and in the afternoon a maid will come, she will make food for you both so whatever you want to eat ask her." Saira said, controlling her emotions.
"But I don't like anyone else's hand made food." Muskaan said
"Then make yourself, I should take care of myself and my baby." Saira said, touching her belly, and went from there.
Next day,
"Aunt opens door, I don't get my books." Muskaan said
"My shoes, and Tie." Shaurya said
Saira opened the door, and glanced towards them. She silently gave him shoes and a book to Muskaan.
"Today I gave you, but from next time take care of it." She said, and went from there.
Now they were slowly getting what's ignorance.
Muskaan came with the comb, and forwarded it to Saira.
"I don't able to do it, please do it or the teacher will scold me." Muskaan said
"Why should she do it? Whole time she is busy taking rest and ignores you both. You both hate us too so what's needed to come to her. " Abhimanyu said, and held Saira's hand.
"Come Saira I made halwa for you." He said
"For us?" Shaurya asked
"I didn't. Ask aunty." He said, and took Saira along him.
"I am feeling bad." Saira said entering in room,
"Don't feel bad, I asked the maid to give them halwa in the afternoon, so now I'm happy." He asked, her lips curled in a smile.
"Stop smiling, and taste. I want to know if my babies like their dad's hand made food or not.
"Umm babies are saying it's okay." Saira said seeing his gaze on her.
His face fell down, but soon he smirked seeing her suppressing her smile.
"Ohh then give me, I'll eat. Babies you don't worry when you both will come I'll feed you by my hand itself." He said trying to take a bowl from her hand, she tightened her grip.
"Abhimanyu it's okay I'll eat." she said
"Arre no need." He said, she made pout.
"Acha eat, but now don't dare to pull my leg." he said, she snatched the bowl and started eating like a child.
Night,
Whole day passed, and the kids were in their room itself. They got their favourite food but it was not made by Saira or Abhimanyu.
Today no one scolded them if they were even making any mistakes.
Slowly they were getting things better, but still not fully.
After two days,
Saira was sitting in the hall, and changing channels while Abhimanyu was in their room and doing some work.
"Come with me." Shaurya asked, holding Abhimanyu's hand.
He confusedly looked at him, but went along with him. Same with Saira.
Saira and Abhimanyu confusedly looked at each other, they entered in Shaurya's room.
Cards were kept on the bed, and balloons were scattered on the floor.
They picked cards, on that sorry written.
She smiled a little, but Abhimanyu was not at all affected.
"You like it?" They asked
Saira was about to answer, but stopped by Abhimanyu. Their faces fell down, but knowing they made a mistake they should correct it at any cost and that they only learn from Saira and Abhimanyu.
"We are sorry.. We thought you both did not love us anymore but seeing how in two days you really did not do any of our work. We realised how much you do for us, you still love us that much." Muskaan said looking down.
"Yeah, please forgive me. I promise I'll not ask you both for taking us outside. I got bored with that tasteless food. and even aunty does not make tasty food like you. and the driver drove really slow. He even makes us late for school." Shaurya said, making faces.
Saira melted with it, but Abhimanyu was still angry. it's said mothers are soft hearted they can't see their children suffering but fathers are strong they easily do not melt.
"Hmm good you realised your mistakes, now I think I should go." Abhimanyu said, and held Saira's hand.
"Come Saira, this all for a few hours." He said seeing Saira melting.
"Please forgive us dad." Muskaan said, and hugged his leg for stopping him.
He just froze. not getting anything how to react. In the 17th year itself he considered her as his daughter. But never tried to force her to call him dad thinking it'll be wrong with his brother and even she will not like to give her parents' place to anyone.
"Yes Mumma we are sorry from the heart. we really realised our mistakes. we promise we will never repeat this." Shaurya sniffed, and stood before Saira holding his ear.
"You called me mumma?" Saira asked, and cupped his face.
He nodded in yes, she became overwhelmed and started kissing him all over his face.
She always wanted this, but feeling they might not like it she never asked them.
"Dad you will not forgive me, please dad I am sorry." Muskaan said seeing Abhimanyu not turn towards her.
"Shh Muskaan, I am not angry at you. I just wanted you to realise your mistakes, Sometimes we need to understand things and it's not always necessary situations are in our favour. He said, and picked her in arms.
"You are still angry.? (He confusedly looked at her, and nodded in no.) Then why Muskaan? I am your Angel. call me that only." Muskaan said, and teary eyed looked at him.
"Yes, you're my angel and I am your dad. I am very happy today." Abhimanyu said
"You're my dad too." Shaurya said, pulling Abhimanyu's t-shirt.
"Yes your dad too, you both are my kids." Abhimanyu said smiling.
"Mumma I am sorry." Muskaan tried to say, but was stopped by Saira.
"No doll, don't say sorry. I am happy I got my both kids." She said she was caressing Shaurya's hair and on the other hand she caressed Muskaan's cheek.
"Well you liked I called you mumma." Muskaan asked
"I loved it." She replied kissing her forehead.
"Even I," Abhimanyu said, seeing Shaurya going to say something.
"Now sit Mumma, or else my chotu will become tired." Muskaan said
"Not chotu, she's my choti." Shaurya said
"Small packets, there are twins so might be both." Abhimanyu said
Saira blushed a little, and later engulfed them in a hug.
"Haww your finger got hurt." Abhimanyu asked to see a cut on Shaurya's finger.
"I was cutting paper, and by mistake I." Shaurya said
"Careless. Give me your finger." Abhimanyu asked
"I miss this so much." Shaurya said, Abhimanyu smiled and hugged him.
"But Mumma it's not fully our fault, in school some aunties were saying this so we thought." Muskaan said
"Oh god, why do you all always come in contact with each other ? First your Mumma and now you both too." Abhimanyu said, hitting his forehead.
"Abhimanyu now don't taunt us." Saira said, keeping her hand across her chest.
"Okay sorry, you both listen never come in other talk. listen to what they're saying but when time comes to work on it then just do what your heart says." Abhimanyu said
Trio rolled their eyes, and went from there.
"No one listens to me here." He said, and sat on bed folding his legs.
