At the D'souza Villa.
Aana took a hot bath then had a cup of coffee to relax her mind , then she took out her books, put on the headphones and started solving her maths questions.
Almost for 1 hour she was focused on Maths, then she took a 20 mins break after that she started completing her homework and then started reading and making notes of those classes which she had bunked today.
Aana was always like that , she used to bunk classes but still she was the top student in her previous school because she never left her incomplete work or project for another day, whenever she bunk classes she used to cover up those topics on that exact day.
Others used to think that she was a genius but no Aana was not a genius she was just productive and focused in her life. She loves to learn new things , she just loves to be busy.
After studying for almost 6 hours, she took a nap for 1 hours and then she went downstairs for dinner.
At the living room,
Mrs. Daina was in the kitchen and was making dinner. When she saw Aana she smiled at her and said," You are in time today, I know you love your father the most,".
When Aana heard this she came towards her mother and took a deep breath because she really didn't want to talk to her , and she just came down today because her father was coming after a long business trip and she didn't want to ruin her father's mood.
She walked towards the refrigerator and took out a bottle of juice while thinking," Calm down Aana, she probably didn't remember anything from last night,".
She said while drinking juice," I do, and you know that, ".
Mrs. Daina laughed and said," Fine, fine and I know you missed him this whole time , By the way how was you first day ?, did you like the school?, ".
Aana said," Yeah it's nice ,".
Mrs. Daina said, " And did you have any homework today ?,".
Aana said," It's already completed and where is dad?,".
Mrs. Daina looked at Aana and said," You are very excited, he just reached the airport , he will be here in 30 mins,".
This time Aana literally smiled and said," Oh great finally he is back,".
Mrs. D'souza nodded and said," You can wait in the living room,".
Aana nodded and walked towards the living room, she sat there and started watching her k-drama.
Aana was very close with her father, and she loved him the most because he was the person who never said that they were not blood related and always treated and loved her like his own daughter , he always supported her whenever she needed him.
After Half an hour later,
A black Mercedes stopped outside the D'souza Villa and Michael D'souza came out with a big smile on his face. He has black hair and brown eyes, a thin lip and is about 6 feet tall, his age was about 40. But still he looks very good.
He took out his luggage and said to the driver," Help me carry this inside and be careful there is a gift for madam and Aana,".
Driver smiled and said," Sir, finally you are back. Miss really missed you and she also did martial arts practice every morning,".
Michael laughed and said," Even I missed her alot and what about your madam?,".
Driver said," I don't know about her,".
Michael nodded and then they walked towards the Villa door. Michael rings the doorbell. Then he heard Aana's excited voice from inside so he smiled and waited for the door to open.
Inside the Villa.
When Aana heard the doorbell she jumped from the sofa in excitement and ran towards the door while saying," Coming,".
Mrs. D'souza also came out from the kitchen with a big smile on her face and saw Aana running towards the door, so she also walked towards the door to welcome Michael.
Aana opened the door and saw her dad was standing outside with a big smile on his face. She jumped and hugged Michael tightly.
She said," Dad, I missed you, I missed you so much now you are not going anywhere , I will not let you go this time for this long,".
Michael also hugged her tightly and said," I missed you too baby, and I promise not to go for this long,".
Daina said while coming towards them, " Did you forget about me or did you just miss her?,".
Aana released Michael and looked at her parents with a smile while Michael and Daina hugged each other and kissed each other's lips.
When Aana saw this she smiled cheekily and said," Oh god mom, dad no PDA please , I'm grown up now,".
Michael and Daina looked at her and laughed loudly.
Michael said," So what , I'm kissing my personal wife,".
Aana said," Personal," after that she started laughing. Michael and Daina also smiled when they saw how happy Aana was.
Aana saw the driver was also outside with some bags so she said," Uncle Karl , come in".
Karl smiled and came inside with bags and then they all walked towards the living room.
He put the bag in the living room and left towards the servant cottage. Karl and Jim were husband and wife and also the oldest servant of D'souza; they both were just like family to Aana and her parents.
Michael and Daina sat at the sofa and started talking about Michael's trip while Aana walked towards the kitchen to take some water for her father.
In the living room.
Daina said," So how was the trip, did everything go well?,".
Michael smiled and said excitedly," Yes and I'm sure it will be ready by next year , Aana will be very happy when she will see her surprise,".
Daina smiled and said," Yeah she will and you know na she loves all the things you gave her, she loves you more than me,".
Michael proudly said," I know, and it's obvious for her to love me more than you,".
Daina looked at him and said with a raised eyebrow, " And why so?,".
Michael said,'' Because I'm her handsome , intelligent and fighter dad and she is my all rounder daughter,".
Daina looked at him speechlessly and Michael laughed when he saw that look on her face. He always loves to tease her like that.
Inside the Kitchen,
Aana filled the glass with water and looked at her parents with a smile, at this time she was really happy from inside. She loves to see her family together and that's the reason Aana never tells Michael about Daina's behaviour when he is not around.
Aana didn't Hate her mother because she knew her mother has also seen many struggle and pain in her life and all that frustration is still inside her heart and that frustration went on her many times and she just tolerate that because she knew there's nothing she can change and she didn't want and differences between her parents.
Aana saw how her mom and dad were talking happily and she felt like everything was normal like earlier when she was small so she forgot everything that happened for that moment and just enjoyed this peaceful time.
She was not able to hear anything from the kitchen so took the water and walked out from the kitchen.
She said while walking towards them," Why are you laughing dad ?,".
Michael looked at her and then Daina and signaled her to don't tell Aana about her surprise. Daina nodded and smiled.
Michael said," Nothing, just teasing your mother as usual ,".
Aana nodded and said,'' Ok , here drink some water and after that we will have dinner,".
Michael nodded and drank the water, after that he picked up his bag and said," We will have dinner later , first look I bought something for you guys,".
Aana and Daina looked at each other and smiled because they knew Michael loves shopping and especially for them when he went out for some trips. Aana sat near Michael and Daina.
Michaell first took two boxes and one was big and the other one was small. He looked at Aana and said," These are for you,".
Aana took them and said, " Thanks dad but what's inside this,".
Michael said," Open it and tell me did you like it,". After that he again took out two boxes but this time they both were small , then he gave them to Daina.
He said," These are for you, open it and tell me did you like it".
Daina said," Thank you Darling,". After that they both started opening their gifts.
Aana was the first one to open her first gift and she was shocked to see a beautiful purple small diamond pendant with initial A.
Daina also opened her first gift and she was also shocked to see a beautiful purple small ring with the initial M.
They both looked at Michael and saw he was smiling from ear to ear , then he took out another small box from his pocket and showed them a same mens ring with initial D.
He said," Look these are a couple rings and a beautiful pendant for my beautiful daughter, and Darling look you have my Initial and I have your , and first I thought to buy a ring for Aana but then I thought that's not her taste so I bring a pendant for you,".
Aana and Daina smiled and suddenly hugged him tightly , they could feel how excited Michael was and with how much love he had bought for them.
They both released him and then Aana said," I love this dad , I will wear this very soon and I also have a surprise for you guys but I will tell you guys after some time,".
Daina said," Yeah it's beautiful , I loved it,".
Michael said," I knew it, fast, fast open your second gift,".
Aana and Daina opened their second gift and they again got surprised.
Aana saw a new macbook and said," Dad , how come you know my macbook was damaged?, ".
Michael proudly said," Because I'm your father ,".
Aana gave him a smug smile and said," I know who told you , it's aunt Jim because just 2 days ago my macbook broke in front of her,".
Michael said," You got it, fine, she told me yesterday that you are very tense so I bought you a new one,".
Aana and Daina laughed when they saw that helpless expression on Michael's face. After that Daina looked at her new iphone.
She said," Jim told you that my phone got broken yesterday?,".
Michael said," Yeah, she told me when I called her to ask about why I'm not able to get in contact with you,".
Daina nodded and said," Thanks darling, let's have dinner first,".
Michael nodded, then he went to his room and got freshed. Then they all had dinner together which Daina made for them. Michael was also a foodie like Aana , he also loved to eat and especially the food made by Daina because she used to make indian and different dishes for him and Aana and he loves indian food.
While they were having dinner Michael told somethings about his trips and asked Aana about her first day of school , Aana just told him that her day was nice and she also jumped the wall to enter school because she was late due to Jack's laziness.
Michael laughed when heard this and Daina scolded Aana for doing such a risky thing on her first day but before she could scold her properly Michael stopped and said it was fine and what Aana did was just a fun adventure.
Like this they finished their dinner and then they all walked to the garden to digest the food while enjoying the night view. They always do this whenever Michael is home.
After 20 min , Aana left them alone and walked towards her room to sleep because tomorrow was her school.
When Aana was trying to sleep she thought about this particular day and she realised that this day was mixture of many emotion , fun , happiness, pain , trauma but in the end she was happy , then suddenly Kian face came in her mind and the scene of bungee jumping she smiled but then again her mind was filled with that incident so she just shook her head and slept soundly.
