"Papa, you also know painting?" Kiyansh asks looking at the various paintings in Kavyansh's room.

"A little but not more than your mother." Kavyansh replies picking up Kiyansh in his arms while whistling for Mishti to follow him.

"Varu will feel bad so I never say anything but she doesn't paint well." Kiyansh remarks wrapping his hands around his father's shoulders.

"Right now she is not well, that is why she doesn't remember much about paining. But you will see how well she paints after she gets better. In fact, it's your Mumma who has taught me to paint like a professional." Kavyansh says remembering the old days when his Lotus used to give him classes on paintings as he wasn't so good back then.

"Wow, really?" Kiyansh asks looking surprise.

"Yes, really. Your Mumma has a lot of talents." Kavyansh replies walking down the stairs.

"I can't wait for Varu to get better and teach me everything she knows." Kiyansh says looking hopeful.

"Of course, she will teach you everything. Till then Papa and others will teach you whatever you want to learn." Kavyansh asks kissing the side of his son's head who beams in happiness.

Soon enough, the father-son duo reach the dining room where everyone is present already except Raghuvendra Singh Rathore who is resting in his room. Kiyansh gets down from his father's arms and quickly sits beside Shivansh's left side not knowing that it's where Jivika sits.

"Baby, that's your Jivika Chachi's place." Kavyansh tells his son.

"Bhaiya, let him sit there. I will sit on other chair." Jivika says while Shivansh starts serving rice and paneer curry on Kiyansh's plate.

"But Bachcha, Shivansh feeds you whenever you both eat together." Kavyansh remarks making Kiyansh and Meghna's eyes widen.

"Chachu you really feed Chachi?" Kiyansh asks Shivansh who nods his head with a small on smile adoring his face.

"Yes, I feed your Chachi or your Chachi doesn't eat food on time." Shivansh replies making Kiyansh to look at his father who is now sitting across from him.

"Then Papa should feed Varu too. Because Varu doesn't finish all the food on her plate." Kiyansh says while Varenya glares at him.

"Varu is a big girl. So, Varu will eat alone." Varenya replies with a huff.

"But you don't finish food, Varu. You always leave something on your plate." Kiyansh remarks.

Varenya goes to argue but Aaradhya holds a spoonful of rice and paneer curry in front of her lips. So, without any more talking, Varenya opens her mouth and let Aaradhya feed her.

"Kavyansh told me that you love Rasgulla. So, I have made them too. After finishing the lunch you can have the sweet." Aaradhya tells Varenya who shakes her head.

"It's Rosogolla not Rasgolla." Varenya says making Kavyansh to chuckles remembering how Varenya used to get offended whenever he said Rasgulla instead of Rosogolla in the past, while other family members looks confused on what's the difference between the two sweets.

"Isn't it same?" Ritika asks looking confused.

"Actually it's the same sweet dessert. But we Bengali's pronounce it as Rosogolla." Meghna replies solving the puzzle.

"Varu will eat Rosogolla not Rasgolla." Varenya tells Aaradhya who is feeding her.

"Okay, I will give you Rosogolla. Now, first finish the food on your plate like a good girl." Aaradhya says feeding another spoonful of rice to Varenya who is playing with the ears of rabbit soft toy given by Jivika.

"Jivu, did Eklavya inform you about when he would be returning home?" Radhika asks Jivika.

"No, Chachi. He hasn't called or texted me yet." Jivika replies just as Shivansh puts another roti on her her plate making her look at him with a pout. But Shivansh gives his wife a stern look in response making her sigh.

"Chhoti Dadi, are you talking about my other Chachu?" Kiyansh asks Radhika as he remembers his father telling him about the members of the family who lives in the palace.

"Aww, it feels so good hearing Dadi from you. And yes, I am talking about your Chhote Chachu who has gone to his college to submit an assignment." Radhika replies sending flying kiss towards Kiyansh who pretends to hold thd kiss in his tiny hand.

"Varu will also meet Kiwi's Chachu." Varenya says.

"And you'll call him Uncle, okay?" Adwait tells Varenya who shakes her head in response.

"Only Adi Uncle is uncle for Varu and Scary man is scary for Varu." Varenya replies making everyone laugh except Adwait and Shivansh who looks like they have lost the battle.

"What are you going to call others?" Kavyansh asks who looks deep in thought for a few minutes.

"Mister Prince's Mumma, Mister Prince's Papa, Mister Prince's Chachi, Mister Prince's Chachu and Mister Prince's Bua." Varenya says pointing at everyone one by one.

"And what about me?" Ritika asks playfully.

"You're Princess Mulan, Varu's favourite princess." Varenya replies while everyone gets surprised as Princess Mulan is the most strongest warrior princess of Disney.

"Why do you like Princess Mulan?" Jivika asks out of curiosity.

"Princess Mulan is very strong. She fights big, scary men and you look very strong to Varu. So, Varu will call you Princess Mulan." Varenya replies looking at Ritika with a big smile who nods her head in response.

"No problem at all. If I can be Genie for Jivika then I can be Princess Mulan for you as well." Ritika says showing thumbs up to Varenya who mimics the action by showing her thumb.

On the other hand, Kavyansh realizes that his Lotus mind still works like before. She has the capability to understand a person inner personality pretty quickly. He has also understood that she feels most comfortable with Jivika and Ritika. But it's not like she isn't comfortable with others or she wouldn't have let his mother feed her so easily. So, a new hope have emerged in his heart that there is maximum chances of his Lotus to get better and become like before. For that, he needs to consult the best psychiatrist as soon as possible.

After lunch everyone is now sitting in the family room where they are having conversation with each other. Kiyansh is sitting on Kavyansh's lap and playing thumb war game with Adwait while Kavyansh is discussing about contacting with some best psychiatrists with Shivansh. Aaradhya, Radhika, Meghna and Geetanjali are talking about different types of recipes which are very similar in both Rajasthani and Bengali households. Pratap and Abhinav are discussing about the new project that the company is working on but it looks like there isn't going to be much profit in it. Meanwhile, Jivika and Ritika are showing different outfits to Varenya which they want to buy for her on their phones.

However, the loud barking noises stop all the conversations that are happening. Mishti, the one year Golden Retriever dog of Varenya and Kiyansh gets up from the floor hearing the barking sound. She stands tall in a defensive manner just as two large black dogs arrives there.

Hulk, the four year old Cane Corso and Shardul, the three year old Tibetan Mastiff rush into the family room after getting different smells in the palace as they are extremely protective of their family. However, as soon as they notice Mishti standing, they immediately stop barking while looking at the pretty golden girl in front of them.

"So beautiful." Hulk thinks in his mind while keep on staring at Mishti.

"She is gorgeous." Shardul thinks while drools drop down the side of his mouth.

"Yuck! The two stinky boys. They look like they haven't taken a bath in years." Mishti thinks in her mind with an eye roll.

"Did she just roll her pretty eyes at us, Duplicate Sher?" Hulk asks Shardul in his mind feeling offended by Mishti's behaviour.

"Something must have gone inside her mesmerizing eyes, Kaliya." Shardul replies and walks towards Mishti. But stop when Mishti again rolls her eyes and moves her head to the other side clearly ignoring him.

"Did she just..." Shardul asks can't believing his eyes.

"Yep, she ignored you." Hulk replies walking past Shardul.

"Two doggies!" Varenya remarks clapping her hands in excitement getting Hulk and Shardul's attention.

"Babies, she is family." Jivika tells the dogs who obey her the most.

"Babies and these two? Eww!" Mishti remarks in her mind sassily.

"Varu plays with two more doggies." Varenya says going to touch Shardul's head who growls lowly making Varenya flinch.

"Shardul, no growling or I won't talk to you." Ritika orders making the dog stop growling immediately but his death stare doesn't waver a little.

"Bad doggie. Varu is scared." Varenya mumbles wrapping her hands around Jivika's left arm and seeing it, Hulk starts growling not liking any unknown person touching his favourite person who is none other than Jivika.

However, both the dogs immediately back off when Mishti gets up from the floor and starts barking loudly in warning. Although her breed is the most friendly one but it doesn't mean she doesn't have any protective instinct.

"Mishti, stop barking. See Varu is getting scared." Kiyansh calls out and gets off from his father lap.

Kiyansh then runs his fingers on Mishti's head who calms down and sits on the floor like a good girl. Kiyansh then turns towards Hulk and Shardul who are looking at him with curiosity because they aren't understanding who is this little human in their house.

"I know you both don't know us and that's why you're being angry. But I am not a stranger. Varu and I are family too. So, please don't scare her. Here you can smell me." By saying this Kiyansh holds in hands in front of the giant dogs who starts sniffing the hands and when they are sure that the little human isn't a threat, they start licking his fingers making him giggles.

"Angel, Varu wants to play with the doggies too." Varenya tells Jivika who nods her head in response.

"Hulk, Shardul come here and meet your new friend." Jivika calls out making the giant dogs to rush towards her.

"Hold your hands like Kiyansh did." Jivika instructs Varenya who at first hesitate but then slowly holds her hands in front of Hulk and Shardul who starts sniffing the fingers. Soon enough, the furry creatures gets used to the new smell and licks Varenya's fingers too just like the have done with Kiyansh.

Varenya starts giggling loudly trying to get her hands back but it only makes the dogs to lick her hands and then face more. On the other hand, Kiyansh too joins them on the floor and starts ticking Varenya on the sides making her burst into a fit of laughter.
