Savior Of Her Heart

Life is a rollercoaster with lots of ups and downs. We think that we can do as we please and the outcome will be the same as we want. But we need to remember that life is full of surprises and sometimes the surprises are the best thing that can happen in anyone's life. Like Anupama and Alessandro, the lovebirds who never imagined themselves to be together but they couldn't fight fate. Because in the end, they have found solace in each other.

Now, after three years they are still going strong and their love is growing day by day. After completing her studies, Anupama has taken full charge of her company as Subhodeep is now live in Kolkata with Jasmine and their two children Vivaan and Maira. It came as a surprise when one day Subhoddep told Anupama that he wanted to go back. Although Anupama was very sad at first, but then understood that she couldn't tell anyone what to do. In the end, she accepted her cousin's decision and bid him goodbye with a happy face.

Anupama along with Alessandro can not be happier with the way their children have been blossoming into bright and wonderful persons. All three children have different personalities but one common thing between them is the love they share among themselves. Ethan is the most curious child out of the three siblings as he likes to dwell on the things which usually lead him to trouble. He likes to read with his momma and at the same time, he likes to draw with his dadda. Next comes Ian who is a complete replica of his daddy Alessandro as he doesn't like to talk much although he observes things very sharply. He is very sweet with his siblings and family but he always gives a cold shoulder towards any unknown persons. In the end, we have our precious baby girl Advira who has become a role model for her siblings as they love to follow whatever their big sister do. She is now a big girl and likes to be independent in many things. She is as sweet as honey but can be sassy if you mess with her siblings. Although she has been very busy with her studies and other stuff, it doesn't change the fact that she spends most of her time playing with her furry big brothers.

Alessandro has become the biggest and wealthiest business tycoon in the US. So, it's not easy for him to give a lot of time to his family as he has more workload on his shoulder than before. However, he manages to spend some quality time with his amazing kids and beautiful wife by taking them on vacations. He sometimes gets scolding from his wife for spoiling the kids with luxurious vacations but he shuts her up by saying that he is working so hard just because he wants to provide the best to his kids.

Anupama's POV:-

"Samuel, have you seen Ethan?" I ask after coming downstairs. I have been searching for the naughty boy for a few minutes but I am not able to find him.

"Come here and see for yourself." Samuel replies while trying to control his laugh although he is failing miserably. I get curious as to why he is behaving like this so I go near him and he points at something inside the kitchen. I look towards the way he is pointing and I feel like I am going to faint.

Ethan is sitting on his high chair while Olivia is sitting on the kitchen counter and both of them are eating noodles without any care in the world. By eating I mean to say that they are having a noodle fight resulting in both of them are covered in noodles.

"What's going on here?" I let out making the two look at me with innocent eyes.

"Oh, it's not what you're thinking Anu. Ethan and I are just trying to see who can eat faster. Right, baby?" Olivia asks Ethan who nods his head rapidly.

"Yesh, momma me no pway wid fud." The little boy exclaims trying to get out of punishment. But that's not going to happen because he is getting out of hand.

"Oli get out of my kitchen right now and go to your room to clean up." I tell my five months pregnant friend who pouts at me and leaves from there while scolding her husband Samuel for telling me what's going on in the kitchen. Since Olivia is pregnant and there is no one to look after her I have asked her and Samuel to stay at the Bianchi mansion. Samuel is here most of the time so it's not a big deal for them. Also, they both love to babysit Ian and Ethan so it's good to have them around.

When the bickering couple gets out of the site I turn around and pick Ethan in my arms before asking the maid to clean the kitchen. Upon reaching his nursery, I take off his soiled clothes and bathe him. I put fresh clothes on him while he plays with his car.

"Baby, momma is very angry at you this time and I am giving you last warning. Don't ruin your clothes or momma will take away your toys from you." I say sternly.

"Me pwomish, no dirty clodes more." Ethan replies before wrapping his little arms around my neck making me smile. I kiss him on the cheek before asking him to go play with his toys. Then I go in search of my other son who is surely in the backyard playing with Tank and Boomer. I don't know if I'm correct or not, but I think my kids have their favorites among the dogs. Like Ian prefers to play with Tank and Boomer because they are the most calm ones out of the six dogs. Scout and Fonsie are Ethan's favorite as both are very active in playing. And for my baby girl Advira, she loves to cuddle with King and Zeus because they make her feel very protected.

When I come into the backyard I smile seeing that Ian is throwing a stick so that Tank or Boomer can catch it.

This is his favorite activity besides learning music. He doesn't like to study much but if you ask him to play piano or his baby guitar he will be at the top of the world. I know studying is important but he is only three years old so I am not going to pressure him to do anything he is not interested in.

"Ian, stop playing and go inside. Daddy is going to be home soon." I tell him and get a full-blown smile in return. His obsession with Alessandro is something I haven't expected before.

"Daddy ish comin?" Ian asks while standing up from the grass.

"Yes, baby. Daddy is coming so get inside with Tank and Boomer." I reply while kissing the top of his head. He runs inside followed by the dogs who are also excited to meet their papa after three days. Alessandro has gone on a business trip but he is coming back today. It has become a regular event for him to stay out of the house because he is building his business empire on a bigger platform. But I am not complaining as he makes time for our kids and pays attention to their necessities.

I get inside the mansion and look at the preparation going around for the Durga puja. It's not the first time that we are going to perform Durga puja in the Bianchi mansion. I have been performing this auspicious puja for three years as I want my kids to know about Indian culture and traditions. That doesn't mean that I am stopping them from following Christian traditions because my kids have the right to know about both cultures. Alessandro is not much of a traditional guy so he doesn't care about what our kids do regarding following rituals but I am not going to let it slide and that's why I take them to church whenever I have time or they go with Mama Melody.

"What are you thinking, amore mio?" An all too familiar voice whisper in my ear making me smile. So, I turn around and look at the man who has taken complete control of my heart.

"I have missed you." I let out before wrapping my arms around his neck to hug him.

"Same for me, Cara." Alessandro replies while kissing the side of my head.

"How was your trip?" I ask while taking his coat from his hand.

"It went pretty well and I have succeeded to sign the deal with the Arabian company." He replies with a tired sigh.

"That's great to know. I am so proud of you Alessandro. Now go to our room and get freshen up. I am going to make black coffee for you." I tell him in which he nods his head before going upstairs. I know it will take him some time to get freshen up so I decide to look for Advira who is in her bedroom.

When I open the door of her room I find her feeding the bunny she has saved a few days ago while playing in the garden. At first, I wasn't ready for her to bring a wild bunny in the house but then she got her papa's permission, so yeah now we have a little bunny roaming around the house.

It still hard to believe that my firstborn is already a seven-year-old. She has lost the chubbiness on her cheeks while her hair is longer than before. But what hasn't changed is the way she behaves with everyone. She is the most sweet girl any parent can ask for. Not only she likes to take care of her little brothers, but she also likes to care for her furry big brothers. Whenever her papa goes on business trips she tells him to eat on time as Alessandro has a habit to forget about eating while working. She also is very good at studies and her teachers always praise her for her incredible talent.

"Mum-mum, why are standing there?" My sweet girl ask while arranging her books and copies. I walk near her before helping her to put her things on the shelves.

"I have come here to tell you that your papa is home." I inform her.

"Really?" Advira asks looking excited.

"Yes, baby. But can you please look after Ethan while I make something for your papa to eat? That little boy is giving me a headache." I exclaim with a sigh.

"Don't worry mum-mum. I will take care of him. You go make something for papa." She replies before picking up the bunny in her arms before going out of the room. I feel proud to raise her so gentle and well-mannered.
