(P.s- An important A/N attached at the bottom)

Evening time:
Mahira's POV:

I was feeling better now and went out to chill with my female friends. They were all really happy to see me.

"Ab se don't go out without telling anyone.", Riva bhabhi said and I nodded happily.

"Abhi bhi tum puri tarah se thik nahi hui ho, take care.", Ritika bhabhi said pouring more tea in my cup.

"Bhabhi please, I won't be able to drink so much.", I tries to stop her but why would they listen to me.

"You don't want to but you need it.", Anushka bhabhi glared and I smiled.

"Bhabhi vamika is crying now.", Rishab came from somewhere and gave vamika to anushka bhabhi. So he was babysitting.

"And samaira aur nidhyana kya kar rahe hai?", Ritika bhabhi asked him.

"They are playing.", He said.

Vamika had stopped crying now, and I took her from anushka bhabhi. Rishab had gone back to sammy and nidhs. I also wanted to go to him and play with kids.

"Bhabhi she isn't crying, main ise le jari hoon.", I said and bhabhi nodded.
I took Vamika and went to Rishu's room, the door was open, I peeped inside he was playing with both the girls.

"Can we join?", I asked and he looked at me with the cutest smile.

"Ofcourse.", He said.

"Hie mahira!", Sammy said and I walked up to the bed, sitting beside them.

"Hello, having fun?", I asked them and both of them beamed in happiness.

"Mujhse bhi pucho.", Rishab said and I turned to him.

"Having fun rishu?", I asked him and he pouted.

"I wasn't, but now you are here.", He said cutely.

"Don't tell me you didn't enjoy babysitting?", It was a shocker that he was bored because he seemed really interested.

"I do, but it's even more fun with you.", He said and I smiled at him. He knows how to make you feel special

"Why are you so nice Rishab?", I asked him. Seriously.

"I can ask you the same thing.", He said raising his eyebrows.

"No, I do nothing for you. But you always do so much for me.", I said what I had to. I cannot even begin to count the number of ways he has made me feel special in.

"Do not mention that please. You've also unknowingly done a lot for me.", He said and I truly don't understand what. But okay.

"Waise rishab, we didn't have our vampire diaries night yesterday.", I wanted to rewatch it with him.

"Oh yes, tonight we'll watch it.", He said and I nodded happily.

"Mahira no, you need to sleep early tonight. You're still not well.", He said after some time, and I made a sad face. I'm not a kid.

"Rishu it's okay.", I said.

"That's what you always say, it's not.", He said and I pouted.

"Please.",

"No.",

"Please",

"No",

"Rishu please, and you'll be there with me na, to fir mujhe kuch nahi hoga. You'll take care of me na.", I said, I meant it ofc.

Rishab's POV:

I was very adamant  on not letting her stay awake till late. But the way she reasoned out, I couldn't say no now. Obviously I'll take care of her, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna let her be careless, but I agreed as I'll get to spend more time with her and I love taking care of her.

"Fine.", I said rolling my eyes

"Yay!", She clapped her hands like a kid and hugged me, a quick one.

"Why are you laughing?", Nidhyana asked her very cutely.

"Because your khadoos rishu chachu agreed on watching my favourite show with me.", She told her and both Sammy and nidhs looked at each other.

"What is your favourite show?", Samaira asked her.

"Is rishu chachu your friend?", Nidhyana asked and she looked at both of them lovingly.

"My favourite show is Vampire Diaries. And yes nidhs, rishu chachu is my friend.", She said.

"Oh so if your friend is watching your favourite show with you, then you are my friend, you should watch my favourite show with me.", Nidhyana said and she chuckled.

"What is your favourite?", She asked nidhyana.

"I love barbie movies.", Nidhyana said.

"And harry potter.", Samaira added.

"You know what, those are also my favourites. We'll watch it together some day okay.", She said and both the kids hugged her. It was such an overwhelming scene.

"Rishu chachu you can also join us.", Sammy came to me.

"Your chachu is very khadoos. He always keeps scolding me.", She said and I rolled my eyes with a smile.

"Why do you scold my Mahira?", Nidhyana asked me with a serious expression. My Mahira?😂❤️

"Because nidhs, she doesn't takes care of herself and falls sick, do you want her to get sick?", I asked her making her sit on my lap.

"No. Mahira why don't you take care of yourself?", Nidhyana scolded her too. I was enjoying this so much.

"I do take care of myself. He is lying.", She said.

"No, you were sick in the morning. You should be a good girl and take care of yourself.", Samaira also supported me.

"Okay sammy.", She said.

"Rishu chachu, you take care of my Mahira okay?", Nidhyana said and I nodded happily. She was constantly referring to her as my Mahira so I decided to tease her a little bit.

"Okay, but nidhs, she is my mahira. Not yours.", I said.

"Oye!", She glared at me and I winked at her to let my continue.

"No. My Mahira.", Nidhyana went to her and wrapped her arms around mahira's neck

"No mine.", I also went and did the same.

"She is my mahira.", She said a little aggressively, pulling Mahira towards her.

"No no. She is my Mahira.", I said pulling her towards me.

"Rishab leave me. I'm all yours nidhyana baby.", She said to nidhyana and I made a fake sad face.

"Yess!", Nidhyana said hugging her tightly.

"Who are you?", She turned to me and I smiled at her.

"Rishu chachu you are behaving like a kid.", Sammy who was watching all of this silently, taunted me.

"Han see, even that kid is more mature than you. Kya karte ho rishab?", Mahira head palmed herself dramatically and Iaughed at her antics.

"I'm gonna cry now.", I said and nidhyana came to me.

"Don't cry, you can also play with her. I'm not a bad girl, I let my friends Play with everyone.", Nidhyana said and mahira laughed

"See, my nidhyana is a good girl.", Mahira said.

"Mahira, you too.", Sammy head palmed.

"Okay I'm not crying.", I said and nidhyana laughed happily.

"And Rishu chachu you need to do something as well.", Samaira said now.

"What?", I asked her.

"Take care of her. Because if she falls sick now, we'll not let you play with her.", Samaira said

"My dear sammy, Nidhyana, and vamika tum bhi sun lo, I'll always take very good care of mahira. I promise. Use kuch bhi nahi hone dunga main.", I stated. Ofc, I wouldn't let anything happen to her.

"Good.", Samaira said. Kids these days.

Important:

Hello guys, here is another update. I wanted to say something as well‌, so since I've started writing this story I've always tried to be regular in updating. And irrespective of my exams or anything I always take out time to write and update for you all. And even after doing so much of hardwork at times I feel like my hardwork goes in vain. It really depresses my morale and if this is how things continue I might be forced to discontinue this story. Because I see so many people reading and only a few of you respond which makes me feel like my work goes unnoticed by you all. So please, it's a humble request, if you are reading this. And you have a opinion, doesn't matter good or bad. Try to make yourself noticeable and make me feel that I am doing something atleast, something bad  is also so much better than just writing and updating and only the two three people who respond regularly, are commenting and then feeling like shit. And the rest of you are just silently enjoying or even if you don't like it. Tell me. I'm not getting paid to do this, I do it out of love for the few people who are genuinely interested in reading further. Mera koi bhi fayda nahi involved hai isme, I write and update everyday in amidst of this busy schedule because of just 4-5 people, who genuinely want to read and have supported me so much. I just feel so bad when I see so many people are reading and only a few of them responding.

So please, if you want me to continue this story, make me feel like you want to read it further and are interested. Otherwise it's just like I'm wasting my most precious asset: time.
