Soft melodious anklet sounds resounded in the whole Rawat mansion with her every step. As she descended from the stairs, everyone look at her and greeted her with big smile. She also greeted them back with a smile as she walked inside the kitchen.
Adhveer Rawat, the master of the house sat on his cozy couch as usual, as he opened his daily newspaper. Ruchika Rawat, his beautiful wife came and took the newspaper from him.
"Aap din ba din aalsi hote jaa rahein hai"
(You are getting lazier, day by day)
Adhveer took off his specs as he look at his wife. He softly smile at her.
"Ab humne kya kar diya mohatarma?"
(Now what have I done, madam?)
Ruchika placed her hands on her waist as she said glaring at him.
"Doctor ne apko har roj walk pe jaane ko kaha hai. Aur aap yahan baithe baithe newspaper mein ghuse hue hai. Chaliye, bahar se hoke aiye ab. Pata hai meri beti kitna chinta karti hai aapki?"
(Doctor told you to go for a walk. And here you are immersed in your newspaper. Get up and be back from outside. Do you even know how much my daughter worries for you?)
Adhveer sighed and stand up. He took step towards his wife as she said with a helpless shrug.
"Ab biwi ke saamne kiska bas chalta hai? Daku Mangal Singh ne order diya hai, Maan na toh padega hi."
(Now who has the power over his wife? Daaku Mangal Singh has given the order, you will have to obey it.)
Ruchika fumed in fake anger and Adhveer raised his arms in surrender position. At that moment someone's entry paused their cute banter.
"Subhe Subhe kis baat ki bhais chal rahi hai?"
(Early in the morning, what are you arguing about?)
Both of the couple turn their head towards the sweet voice and a soft smile crept onto their faces.
"Aavya..."
Adhveer call her name as she walk towards them and touch their feet one by one. She glared at Adhveer cutely.
"Baba... Aap Maa ko phir se tang kar rahein hai na?"
(Baba... you are bothering Maa again, right?)
There's a soft smile in his face as he caressed her hair dotingly,
"Apki Baba ki itni majaal hai kya, ke woh Jhansi ki Raani ko tang kare."
(Does your Baba have the guts to harass the Queen of Jhansi?)
Aavya Rawat, who's also the heart and soul of Rawat family, gave him a fake glare as Ruchika again started complaining to her. Aavya look at the couple's cute banter and gave a bitter smile. There was a time when she dreamt of this kind of bond but her life take a twisted turn as her dream became the worst nightmare of her life.
Adhveer look at her blank smile and understood her inner storm. He came and cup her face.
"Phir se uske baare me soch rahein ho na aap? Baba ne aap se kya kaha tha? Bhul ke bhi uss nalayak ko yaad karke apne aap ko dukh mat pohochana. Samajh gye aap meri baat."
(You are thinking about him again, aren't you? What did Baba tell you? Don't cause yourself pain by remembering that scoundrel even by mistake. You understood my point.)
Ruchika also came to her and hug her from side. Aavya smile at them with teary eyes as she hold Adhveer's hand on her cheeks,
"Humne aap se aap ka Beta chhin liya Baba. Agar hum yahan nhi hote toh sayad..."
(I snatched your son from you Baba. If I was not here then maybe...)
Before she can finish her sentence Ruchika slapped his back gently.
"Chup. Bilkul bakwaas nhi. Usne jo kiya hai apne marzi se kiya hai. Jo ghatiya harkat usne tumhare saath ki hai woh maafi ke layak kabhi nhi hai. Achha hai jo uska saaya bhi humse door hai."
(Shut up. No more nonsenses. Whatever he did, he did it willingly. The vile act he did to you is never forgivable. It is good that even his shadow is far away from us.)
Aavya look at them with teary eyes. Adhveer hugged her daughter tightly and caress her head. She buried her face on his chest.
They're busy on their little world while another person looking at them with done eyes leaning on the railing of the stairs.
"Wow... Sabere sabere inn teeno ki Gopi Bahu serial chalu ho chuki hai. Great"
(Wow... Gopi Bahu serial of these three has started early in the morning. Great)
Aavya broke the hug and look at the girl looking at them folding her hands.
"Ridhima Didi..."
Ridhima Rawat, A professional Divorce lawyer, descended from the stairs and came to them. She gently flicked her head. Aavya wince a little and rub her head. Ridhima glared at her placing her hands in her waist.
"Faltu ke chintaon ko dimaag mein naa rakhke, apne kaam mein dhyaan de. Kaunsa CEO 9 baje tak ghar me rehta hai?"
(Don't let unnecessary worries take over your mind, and focus on your work. Which CEO stays at home till 9 pm?)
Aavya look at the wall clock and bite her tongue childishly. Everyone chuckled looking at her childish act. Aavya became the CEO of "GATHBANDHAN", the biggest wedding planning company of India.
"Gathbandhan" is originally a branch company of Maheswari Empire, The biggest, renowned business empire of India run by the Royal Maheswari family of Jaipur. Aavya went there for an interview. But the previous CEO who couldn't handle the pressure of extreme work, get mesmerized by her awesome insight and appointed her as a CEO.
Like everyone even Aavya was dumbfounded, when she suddenly got appointed as a CEO. At first the board members and employees revolted against his decision. But after observing her work for a month, they finally accepted the truth that she's better suited for the CEO chair than their good-for-nothing boss.
Today is her first day of being a CEO so she prepared herself for office, not knowing that her whole life is gonna get upside down from this moment.
The same peaceful morning on somewhere. Wait!... Peace?... What's that?...
A young, 27 year old man, was running around the whole house to save himself from the flying dangers coming at him. A middle aged man in his 50's darting at him with slipper in his hand while a 25 old young girl throw her sandal in his face.
"Nalayak..." 👩🏻
(Worthless)
"Bewakoof..." 🧔🏻
(Stupid)
"Nithalla..." 👩🏻
(Idle)
"Gadhe ki aulaad" 🧔🏻
(Son of a donkey)
Both the youngsters look at the man dumbfounded. Garvit Maheswari, the previous CEO of "Gathbandhan" smirked at the old man,
"Main Gadhe ki aulaad toh hounga hi, Jab mera Baap khud gadha hai."
(Of course I'll be a Son of donkey when the donkey is my father himself)
Hardik Maheswari, the chairman of Maheswari Empire, also father of Garvit gritted his teeth throw the slipper at him, which directly landed on his face. Garvit winced in pain as the slipper hit his nose.
"Kaamchor... Ek toh puri ki puri Gathbandhan ko tune kisi aur ko saup diya... Aur yahan baithe baithe mujhe gadha bol raha hai?"
(You lazy man... First of all you handed over the whole Gathbandhan to someone else... And you are sitting here calling me a donkey?)
Kasish Maheswari, daughter of Hardik and elder sister of Garvit looked at her father with done eyes.
"Par Baba... Aapne khud apne aap ko Gadha kaha hai. Remember... Aapne isse kaha 'Gadhe ki aulaad'."
(But baba... you yourself have called yourself a donkey. Remember... you called him 'Son of a donkey')
Garvit chimmed in, hugging his sister,
"Aur uss hisaab se Gadha kaun hua? Mera baap... Yani ke aap"
(And according to that who is the donkey? My father... That is you)
Both brother and sister hifi with each other and Hardik clench his eyes and fist feeling defeated. Kritika Maheswari, wife of Hardik and mother of Garvit and Kasish came out of the kitchen and sighed helplessly.
"Aap log phir se chalu ho gye?"
(You guys started again?)
Hardik sat on the couch with an exasperated sigh. Garvit came and sat beside him while Kasish hug her mother's shoulder.
"Baba... Aap Chinta mat karein. Aavya bohot achhi hai. Aur woh company mujhse achha chalaegi. Woh itni talented hai... Aur unki insight..."
(Baba... don't worry. Aavya is very nice. And she will run the company better than me. She is so talented... and her insight...)
Hardik stopped him,
"Bas, bas... Aur tarif karne ki zarurat nhi hai. Board members se already uski taarif sunke mere kaan pak gye hai."
(Enough, enough... there is no need to praise her further. I am already fed up of hearing her praises from the board members.)
Kritika and Kasish chuckled at each other and Garvit smiled softly. Hardik look around the hall,
"Waise... Humare bade sahabzaade kahan hai?"
(By the way... where is our elder prince?)
Kasish opened her mouth,
"Aur kahan honge... Woh apne sahabzaade ke saath hain"
(Where else would he be... he is with his own prince)
And with that there's a soft chuckle appeared in their lips.
A 2 year old toddler get up on the bed with much difficulty and crawl up on the sturdy bare back of the sleeping figure.
"Papa... Papa... Wakey wakey..."
The man groaned and turned shifting the blanket slightly holding the little creature on his chest. He ruffled his own messy hair with his sturdy long fingers as he opened his sleepy eyes slightly.
"Kisu bachche... Tang na karo... Jao yahan se"
(Kisu Baby... Don't bother me... Go away from here)
Krishiv Maheswari, the little prince of Maheswari family pursed his lips and make an angry pout and slapped his hard, bare chest.
"PAPA... WAKEY.... 😾"
Hrithan Maheswari, The cold, ruthless, Devil president of Maheswari Empire, who doesn't show any emotion to anyone, smiled softly at his little life.
"Aap bohot naughty ho gye ho."
(You've became so naughty)
Little Krishiv pouted his lips and slapped his chest gently with his small hands,
"Papa... Notty... Kisu... Gwud..."
"A6a beta..." (Oh really)
He started tickling him which made him laugh in joy. Krishiv is the only peace he had in his busy, chaotic life. Where everyone fears him like a God this little angel who didn't even reach to his knees, easily boss around him.
Hrithan is a single father, who was given this little life by his ex-wife, as she left him and their child because she was in love with someone else. She didn't even glanced at the child she gave birh to. Hrithan, looking at his wife's indifference to the symbol of their love, made him angry a lot. But when the child opened his eyes and snuggled onto his embrace, he forget everything.
Since then Hrithan hates the existence of women near him and gave his everything to his little life. His son, his Kisu who exactly looks like him. He gently hug his son.
"Papa... Kisu... Bhookha...."
(Papa... Kisu... Hungry)
Krishiv said with a cute pout. Hrithan grabbed the t-shirt from the bed and put it on as he picked Krishiv up on his shoulder. Krishiv squeal in joy as they both came out of their room and came downstairs.
The others already settled in dining table, for breakfast. Garvit looked up and a smile appeared seeing both dad and son coming downstairs.
"Lo... Aa gye humare dono sahabzaade."
(Look... both our princes have arrived)
Everyone look at them and smiled softly. Hardik spread her arms at Krishiv with a big smile.
"Kisu bachcha... Dadu ke paas aao"
(Kisu baby... come to grandpa)
"Noi... Kisu... Papa..."
Krishiv shook his head stubbornly. With that a smug smirk appeared on Hrithan's face. Everyone chuckled as, Hardik's vein popped in his jaw as he took back his hand.
"Come on Baba... Aapko toh pata hai, humara Kisu Papa ka Puppy hai. Woh aaj tak apne papa ke pallu ko chhoda hai kabhi?"
(Come on Baba. You know our Kisu is Papa's puppy. Did he ever leave his Papa's side?)
Kashis said while eating her paratha. Hrithan get Kisu from his shoulder and made him sit on the chair as he also sat beside him.
Hardik also took the seat beside his son as Ruchika served them their breakfast.
"Hum log ek party throw karne wale hai..."
(We are going to throw a party)
Hardik said taking a bite of his food which made Hrithan raise his eyebrow.
"Party? Kis khushi mein?"
(Party? For what occasion?)
"Iss nalayak ne 'Gathbandhan' ko kisi aur ko saup diya hai."
(This worthless fellow has handed over the 'Gathbandhan' to someone else.)
Hardik glare at Garvit and he look away avoiding their gaze. Hrithan's frowns also darken hearing it.
"Naye CEO ke honour mein rakhi jaa rhi hai yeh party. Board member ki bhi yeh hi demands hai."
(This party is being organized in honor of the new CEO. This is the demand of the board members as well.)
Hardik sighed and nod, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Okay... Main Darshan ko bol dunga guest list sambhalne ke liye..."
(Ok, I will ask Darshan to take care of the guest list.)
Hardik shook his head and he clasped his hand solemnly as he looked at his son deeply,
"Yeh kaafi nhi hain. Tumhe bhi hona padega uss party mein."
(This is not enough. You also have to be at that party.)
Hrithan's eyes darken hearing his father. He put down the spoon and look at him coldly,
"Baba, aap ko toh pata hai, humein yeh sab pasand nhi."
(Baba, you know, I don't like all this.)
The room temperature decreased instantly, making everyone shiver. Garvit rubbed his arms feeling chill due to the cold atmosphere, while Kritika and Kasish exchanged nervous glances. Hardik sighed helplessly,
"Pata hai, but naye CEO ko honour dene ke liye, Maheswari Empire ki qaabil President ka hona bohot zaruri hai. Iss baar tumhe humari baat manni padegi."
(I know, but it is very important to have a capable president of Maheshwari Empire to give respect to the new CEO. This time you will have to listen to me.)
Hrithan sighed and about to reject but Krishiv slapped the table excitedly,
"Papa... Paty... Go... Go..."
Everyone smile seeing Krishiv's excitement. Hrithan can't help but smile with his little angel's demand.
"Thik hai, But only this time."
(Ok, but only this time)
Hrithan pinched his son's nose and he squealed happily. Others also chuckled seeing their bond as they all finished their breakfast.
