"Mami, what happened?"
The small shout made both Aashi and Arnav jump apart.
Khushi just got a big smile knowing exactly who was there.
"Arav..." the name left her lips easily.
"Mami..." Arav came in front of her pushing Arnav from the way. "Give side, Mamu."
He again turned to Khusi after glaring at Arnav who just gaped at the little boy.
"What happened? Why are you here? Are you fine?" his eyes already getting teary looking at his mami in a hospital bed.
"Arav baccha, I'm completely fine. It's just dizziness." Khushi reassured Arav.
"But..." before he could voice out his thought Aashi interrupted.
"Bhai, arshi is coming," Aashi declared with a big grin.
"No...You are lying." Arav urged not believing what he just heard.
"Bhai, I never lie." Aashi declared.
Arav looked at her for a few seconds to make sure she was telling the truth and started jumping in excitement.
"Oh my god aashi, I'm so happy,"
Aashi joined her brother in sharing her excitement by jumping around in the middle of a hospital room.
Others present in the room just stood there not knowing what exactly was going on between the duo of brother-sister.
"Arav," Arnav said gaining his attention, "Who arshi? Your girlfriend?"
Arnav was just trying to tease his nephew not knowing what his words did to Shyam.
Shyam Jha nearly suffered a panic attack at Arnav's question.
"Arav you are just thirteen." Shyam yelled," How could you make a girlfriend? On top of that, how could you involve aashi here? She is too small."
Anjali stopped herself from rolling her eyes at her husbands' antics when he looked at her.
"Rani Sahiba look, what your son does in school? Oh my god, what will be his future? How can he be a lawyer now," Shyam asked breathing heavily like he will pass out any second?
"Oh come on dad, I'm thirteen, not three. " Arav said rolling his eyes.
"But aashi is seven, not seventeen." Shyam glared at his son, "You cannot talk about your girlfriend, which you shouldn't have by the way, with little aashi."
"But dad, Arshi is not my girlfriend," Arav said.
"What? She is not. " Shyam confirmed only to turn to Arnav, "Sale Sahab, you don't give my Arav ideas."
"Me? But when did I...I" Arnav muttered. "Khusi..." He wined making his already giggling wife laugh more.
Arav and Aashi exchanged a look and shook their head at their parents' antics.
"Uff, papa, and mamma, Arshi is coming ." Aashi started gaining everyone's attention.
"We were talking about the little one who is about to enter our life," Arav explained further.
"Thank God ." Shyam sighed heavily listening to that while others just smiled how they had already decided a name for their little sibling too.
"And how do you know it's a baby girl Arav?" Anjali asked wanting to know what his son would say.
"I just know." Arav declared. Aashi nodded along.
They were precious, thought the elders in the room.
"And SJ, I'm not little. Now, I'm going to be a big sister." Aashi pointed out her disliking at what her SJ said about her being little.
"Also dad who said I am going to be a lawyer? I will be anything but a lawyer." Arav said in an annoyed tone not liking what his father was planning about his future.
The expression on Shyam Jha's face was worth framing. It was as if he would burst into tears any second.
"SJ, don't worry! I'll be a lawyer for you." Aashi tried cheering her SJ not liking him sad.
Everyone present in the room could just coo at her innocence.
Arnav and Shyam were looking at her with different emotions.
"Aashi, you need to be a businesswoman." Both Arnav and Shyam said in unison.
Though Shyam was grateful that at least aashi said that much for him, he knew Aashi was too much like Arnav to be anything but a businesswoman. But unlike Arnav she would have Khusi's personality to make people love her more than fear her.
"Ok." aashi agreed without any second thought.
When Arav heard that he started laughing hard. Others who were busy admiring aashi were startled by his wild laughter.
"Bhai, this is not funny," Aashi said not liking her brother laughing at her statement.
"Really? Who was going to be a doctor till yesterday? " Arav asked in a teasing tone.
"As Sj said, I'm only seven not seventeen and with a new day I want to be a new thing." Aashi declared as if that was a most normal thing to do.
Everyone laughed listening to her not to forget excluding Arnav and Shyam who were too shocked to react. They thought their aashi was innocent.
"Oh my god, I'm in love with you both," Ridhima said between her laughter referring to Arnav and Shyam looking at their expression.
"Riddhima..." someone called from behind in a shocked tone.
"Armaan." Riddhima smiled more brightly looking at the person standing at the door.
"Riddhima, you don't love me?" Armaan said with eyes full of tears.
"What are you saying, Dr.Armaan?" Riddhima asked getting a little angry. How can he say that she didn't love him?
"You said you love them," Armaan asked pointing at two who were still dazed thinking about aashi and her talk.
"Armaan, you are impossible. " Riddhima said rolling her eyes. "They were looking so cute and I just happen to say that. For your information, they are married and have children," she explained like explaining to a curious kid.
"Oh. But, you love me right?" he asked making a really cute face.
"I love you, Armaan Malik," Riddhima said in a babyish tone pulling both his cheeks and swinging at how cute he looked.
Armaan just blushed and smiled more. His dimples showing.
"Oh my god, Dr. Armaan, you have dimples."Khushi jumped out of bed nearly giving a heart attack to almost everyone with her shout and jump.
"Gosh mami, what was that?" Arav asked in a shocked tone controlling his heartbeat.
"Look di," Khusi said referring to Anjali and jumped like a small kid moving near Armaan who was already red due to blushing.
"Omg, You are right Khushiji," both girls stood on either side of Armaan getting all excited.
"Dr. Armaan please smile," Khusi asked to which Anjali supported nodding her head vigorously.
Armaan blushed deep red standing beside Riddhima not knowing what to do.
"Khushi,"
"Rani Sahiba,"
Their husbands yelled.
Both Arnav and Shyam were annoyed. They were considerate enough till it was SRK. He was an actor and a heart-throb but that does not mean you started to gush over anyone's dimple including the doctor.
And the doctor in question was still blushing like a new bride.
"Dr. Ridhima, Sorry for this. It's just we just love dimples." Khushi said going all dreamy completely ignoring her annoyed husband and brother.
"Oh come on. Why would I mind? You can touch them if you want." Riddhima said in a no-nonsense tone completely missing the baffled expression of Armaan standing behind her.
"Riddhima, I am your husband," Armaan said in a completely baffled tone.
"So are we." Arnav and Shyam said together.
"What? How can you be the husband of my Riddhima." Armaan demanded. His dimples disappear for the dislike of Khusi and Anjali.
"Are you insane? I am talking about my Khushi." Arnav was ready to strangle this doctor.
"And I'm talking about my Rani Sahiba ."Shyam too was annoyed.
The trio was glaring at each other through Armaan was relieved too. His wife was his. Thank God.
Arav and Aashi shared a look. It was enough.
"Are you all mad? This is a hospital. You two are doctors." Arav declared referring to Armaan and Riddhima. "And Raizadaz's and Jha's, you are behaving like kids."
Aashi nodded along at each of her brother's words like an obedient sister.
"Mami, you are pregnant. Why are you jumping around? And mom you too are supporting her? Dad and Mamu, you two are getting jealous over dimples. Seriously?"
Arav scolded everyone as if he was the eldest among all.
Everyone stood bending their head in front of Arav as naughty kids do in front of a strict teacher at getting caught doing mischief.
"Sorry." everyone muttered in unison still bending their head.
Aashi giggled looking at her family behaving like her friends.
Arav too couldn't stop himself.
"You're all crazy you know," Arav said between his laughter.
"Bhai, cute also," Aashi added supporting her brother.
All could just give sheepish smiles to the kids.
