Hello sweeties,

How are you guys? I don't know about you, but I am really bored at home.

My exams have been postponed and I am free for the time being.

So, when I opened Wattpad, I saw many people commenting and voting for this story so I thought why not give you guys a surprise chapter.

Hope you like it.

Have fun reading......................

Malhotra mansion, new york.

"Mani, you forgot to take Abhay with you yesterday. He needs to get vaccinated." Nandini folded her arms glaring the culprit who is currently playing with belle.

"Dreamy, you know he doesn't like me. He always cries even if I get near him." Manik pouted hugging Belle and took her into his arms.

"Mani, It was your fault for scaring him. That's, why he doesn't, come near you anymore." Nandini glared at him who averted his eyes.

"It was just for fun. He is already a year and a half old. He isn't a baby anymore." Manik justified while Nandini hit his head making belle giggle.

"Dada got hit," she spoke making Manik pout.

"ab tum jao. Find Abhay and get him vaccinated." Nandini pushed him away while pulling belle towards herself.

"Jaa raha hoon dreamy. bye Jaan." he spoke and bid bye to Belle who waved her back.

"ab ye mumma ka chumcha kaha gaya?" Manik muttered looking around for the little boy who was later found in the wardrobe.

"Mumma, why did you send Dada and abbu together?" She spoke sitting in her mother's lap while nandu checked the files in front of her.

"well, they need to get along Bell. We can't have them avoiding each other right?" Nandu spoke while Belle hummed. Nandu felt weird seeing belle all silent.

"Bell, darling. Are you bored?" She asked seeing belle in a sad mood.

"No, Mumma." She spoke looking at the bundle of files on Nandini's desk while Nandu smiled seeing her. She put the file back and made some space on the table. Then she made belle sit on the table while facing towards her.

"But I am bored, my love. will you please play with me for some time? can have our girl's time? Please?  please?" Nandini asked playing with belle's fingers and tickling her slightly while Belle giggled loudly.

"yes!" she shouted in excitement while nandu tickled her more.

"wly you? Mumma wherl? Mumma Mumma!" Abhay questioned the towering monster daringly in front of him who held his collar as he dangled in the air. He pouted and struggled with his short chubby hands.

"oye chubby, stop moving or you will fall," Manik spoke uninterestedly.

"Mumma Mumma," he shouted while Manik sighed and put him down.

"Now, we need to go get vaccinated. Your Mumma ordered," he spoke as he took him into his arms. Abhay pouted but stopped struggling. Although he didn't know what vaccinated means he would go with Manik for the sake of this mother.

"See, that's why I call you Mumma ka chamcha," Manik muttered to himself grumpily.

In the hospital.

Abhay looked at the doctor in front of him who had a lethal weapon in his hands like a monster.

"Wow, your boy is very strong and brave sir. He isn't afraid of anything." the doctor said as he took Abhay's arm smiling. He slowly injected the vaccine while Abhay screamed loudly and started crying. Seeing him cry, Manik didn't know what to do.

"wuuuuuu, pain. pain, wuu." he cried.

"that's it Abhay. it's over." Manik spoke worriedly standing 3 steps away from him while the doctor who completed his work suggested Manik to hold his hand.

Manik went near Abhay who looked at him with red eyes. Manik felt sad looking at him. Abhay hugged manik's legs tightly with his hands as soon as he saw him.

"dada pain, wuu" He hiccuped while Manik took him into his arms.

"shh, my boy. I am so proud of you. shh."Manik patted Abhay's back while hugging him tightly. He bid the doctor bye and walked towards the exit with Abhay in his arms.

they then went to an ice cream shop which was on their way home.

"Which one do you want?" Manik asked as he looked at the flavors. While Abhay who was sitting on his shoulders pointed towards the chocolate one.

"you and your mom both have the same taste," Manik muttered smiling as he ordered vanilla for himself.

Manik and Abhay exited the shop and went towards the car while licking their icecream.

"happy?" Manik asked while putting the seat belt for Abhay who smiled widely in return.

"halppy!" he said making Manik smile. Although their relationship was more of a fight for mumma's attention, they never stopped loving each other.

when Manik returned home Abhay ran to his mom and told him about what happened in his babyish language excluding that he cried.

"really? omo my little bun is so brave." nandu spoke widening her eyes making Abhay giggle.

"argh, mother and son both are at it again," Manik spoke pouting as Nandini's attention was only at Abhay.

"yes dada, again" belle pouted standing exactly like Manik making him smile.

"let's go do something," Manik suggested while belle thought for a while.

"then, let's butt in." belle said excitedly while Manik widened his eyes at her in an approving way saying that's my daughter and walked towards the mother-son duo and lifted them up in a princess carry making Nandini yelp.

"Manik!" she shouted while belle opened the door and led them towards the home theater.

Manik settled down with nandu and Abhay beside him and belle in his lap.

"what does my princess want to watch?" Manik questioned while belle clapped her hands.

"Narnia! Narnia!" she cheered while nandu smiled. The family of four watched the series all night. well, until Abhay slept after that Nandini ushered them to sleep.

Hawaii... On a sunny day, near the beach...

Phone convo.

"Little girl, I will be back in a week. Arya and mike are taking care of the gang, right? tell them not to make move on the red spiders." he spoke in a hoarse voice as if he just woke up.

"Old man, aren't you tired of all this? get a wife first, then think about coming back." Nandini spoke snorting.

"Little brat, there is saying that life is meant to live with freedom, not to tie your self with responsibilities like marriage. You are already crazy enough to marry that boy, now you want to attach this craziness to me, not happening," he spoke in a No way tone.

"Fine, do as you wish. But remember to come to NY for bell's birthday." She spoke in a defeated tone while Arno chuckled.

"Of course, I wouldn't miss it even for the world." He spoke laughing. They talked with each other for a bit before Arno cut the call.

"I mai la au e waiho! Help, Help!" a girl screamed as she struggled to escape. (i said leave me!)

"she seems to be around little girl's age," Arno muttered frowning.

he walked towards them and tapped the shoulder of the man holding her hand.

"o wai 'oe?" Arno questioned twisting his arm. (who are you?)

"haʻalele iaʻu, please." the man asked with a painful look. (leave me, please) but Arno twisted his arm enough to hear the crack.

"ʻaʻole loa e hele hou i ka infont o ona hou a i ʻole." Arno threatened while the man nodded his head vigorously. (never appear in front of her again or.)

Arno left his hand while the man ran away. The girl beside him thanked him in the Hawaiian language.

"it's ok," Arno said. All of a sudden the girl widened his eyes. The next thing he knew, someone poured dirty water on him screaming

"iā ʻoe kalcal" (you rascal!)

he raised his hand and wiped his face to see white and musky water. He snorted and turned around to punch the hell out only to be blown away seeing the person in front of him.
