Shivaay, Anika and Kiara were sitting in the car as Anika was driving. It was already evening after their icecream treat.

A- Shivaay, should we go and eat dinner too as its already late and its not Good for Kiara to be hungry for this long?

S- Yeah! That's a good idea. Let's go.

K- Yaaaayyyyyy.

Kiara squealed in excitement while Shivaay and Anika smiled at her excitement.

Soon, Anika parked their car in front of a small restaurant.

Shivaay looked at the restaurant and looked at Anika in shock. Anika noticed his confusion.

A- What happened?

S- I thought you would take us to some fancy 5-star hotel but this is....

Anika chuckled in understanding.

A- But I don't like the food at 5 star hotels, it's just so dull and flavourless. This place is really very special to me. Come, I'll show you both.

Anika helped Shivaay to settle on his wheelchair and held Kiara's hand in another and they walked inside the restaurant.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, an elderly woman in her early 60s walked towards them with a wide smile on her face.

A- Helen Aunty.

H- Oh! My baby doll. How are you?

Helen hugged Anika and Anika hugged her back with a smile.

A- I'm good. How are you?

H- Gorgeous as always.

Helen looked at Shivaay and Kiara and then looked at Anika with a mischievous smile.

H- Who is this handsome and this Angel?

Helen asked and Anika smiled.

A- This is Shivaay, my husband and this angel is Shivaay's niece and my Doll.

Anika said with a wide smile and Helen smiled at them with admiration.

H- Oh my my! Many congratulations to both of you. She is the cutest doll I've ever seen. Come on guys, I'll serve the tastiest recipe I've made today.

Anika nodded her head and helped Shivaay to settle on the chair. Anika sat beside Kiara to help her to eat as the table was huge for her.

A- So guys, what do you want to eat?

K- Doll, I really want to eat chicken. It's so yummy.

Kiara said while licking her lips and Shivaay and Anika chuckled.

S-I'm fine with it too.

A- Okay. Then chicken it is.

A waitress walked towards their table and was checking out Shivaay and giving him flirty smiles. Shivaay just rolled his eyes as it was a common scenario for him when he was a racer. Anika was fuming in anger after seeing that waitress.

A- Eyes here. I'm sure Helen aunty doesn't pay you for ogling at my husband.

Anika said while glaring at the waitress. The waitress smiled nervously.

W- Sorry. What should I bring, Ma'am?

A- A new waiter would be fine.

Anika said with a smirk and the waitress looked at her with wide eyes. She then nodded her head and left.

Anika was looking at Shivaay who was trying to control his laughter.

A- What?

S- Fiesty much?

Anika rolled her eyes and a small smile came on her lips.

Soon they ordered Tandoori chicken, Fish curry, prawn fry, rumali roti and chicken biryani. Anika especially asked them to cook the food with less oil and spices.

Shivaay was looking at Anika with admiration as Anika was teaching Kiara how to play a mobile game.

Anika felt his gaze upon herself and looked at Shivaay.

A- What happened?

S- I'm just thinking that I was so wrong about you. You're so different from what I thought.

Anika rested her hand under her chin and looked at Shivaay with a smile.

A- And what did you think?

S- I thought you'll be some spoilt rich girl and you would throw some money on my face after that accident but instead you regretted your actions and accepted your punishment. You're really kind-hearted, Anika. Your simplicity is the real beauty you have and I'm very happy that you're ino our lives.

Shivaay held Anika's hand which was resting on the table.

S- You're very beautiful too.

Anika looked at him with a blush and they shared an eyelock.

A- You both have given a meaning to my meaningless life and a direction to my  pointless life. I never knew meaning of a family. When I was young, I usually grew up among maids, nanny and servants. I used to see my parents once or if I'm lucky, twice in a month. Usually they would be off to some business trip and if they were free, they both went for a holiday but they never thought that their little girl is waiting for them at home. When I was younger, I used to pray to God to send my parents to me but when I grew up, I stopped praying as I knew it was of no use.  I never saw a happy family. But you both made me realise that what a happy family is. You both are my happy family.

Anika said and a tear escaped from her eye. Shivaay immediately wiped it and he was really feeling sorry for her.

He held her hand and pecked it.

S- We are always here for you. If we are your happy family then you are also our happy family. You're our solace.

Shivaay said and Anika smiled at him.

K- We love you, doll.

Kiara said with a toothy smile and pecked anika's cheek. Anika smiled and pecked Kiara's forehead.

A- And I love you both.

Soon their dinner arrived. Anika first checked the food if it was according to Kiara's liking and health or not. She then approved the food.

Anika started feeding Kiara with her hands as the food was hot. Kiara was enjoying it to the fullest.

Shivaay smiled at the duo.

Soon they were done with their dinner when Helen Aunty came back with a tray.

H- Dessert time. It's time for Helen's special today. Shahi tukda for the lovely couple and Choco strawberry pudding for my sweetheart.

Helen aunty served the dessert and Kiara's eyes twinkled in excitement.

H- Congratulations on your wedding, Shivaay and Anika.

A/S- Thank you, Helen Aunty.

Soon they finished their dinner and headed outside after thanking Helen aunty.

Anika helped Shivaay and kiara to settle in the car and as she was about to sit at the driving seat when someone called her.

P- Anika.

Anika came face to face with those two people who were blood related to her but they never realised their responsibilities towards her and never cared for her happiness.
