At Nishi's House 🏡 :

Nishi enters the house as Kaka opens the door. She smiles at Kaka and asks, "अरे वाह! आज तो काकू आए हुए हैं!"

[ Translation : "Oh wow! Kaku has come today!" ]

Hareesh Kaka smiles at her politely saying, "हाँ क्योंकि तुम्हारी ताई जी ने कहा कि तुम अकेली हो घर पर और तुम्हारी तबियत भी ठीक नहीं है। सो आ गए।" Nishi smiles at Kaka's words and Kaka says, "अब जाओ, बिटिया! जल्दी से हाथ मुंह धो लो। हम खाना लगा देते हैं तुम्हारे लिए।" Nishi nods and goes to her room to get fresh.

[ Translation 1 : "Yes because your Aunt said that you are alone at home and your health is also not good. So I came."

Translation 2 : "Now go, daughter! Wash your hands and face quickly. I will serve food for you." ]

She has her lunch which is Saabudaana Khichdi. She loves it as soon as she eats one spoonful. She looks at Kaka with wide eyes and asks in excitement, "Wow Kaka! ये बहुत yum-yum है! इसे क्या कहते हैं?"

[ Translation : "Wow Kaka! It's so yum-yum! What's it called?" ]

[ Sabudana Khichdi is an Indian dish made from soaked sabudana (tapioca pearls). It is the dish of choice when an individual observes a "fast" during Shivratri, Navratri, or a similar Hindu religious occasion. ]

"साबूदाना खिचड़ी। तुम्हे पसंद आयी?" Kaka asks chuckling seeing her bright surprised smile.

[ Translation : "Sabudana Khichdi. Did you like it?" ]

She nods and and asks excitedly, "कैसे बनती है? मुझे भी सीखनी है काकू। Please!" Kaka laughs at her excitement and tells her the recipe.

[ Translation : "How is it made? I also want to learn Kaku. Please!" ]

Once she finishes her lunch she reads a book while taking some rest as told by the doctor and after half of an hour she starts doing her school work.

At Nakul's House 🏡 :

It was 5 in the evening when Nakul comes back home with Arushi after picking her up from her college.

"Where have you been when I asked you to come back home directly after your college in the message?" Nakul's mother asks him with a strict face as he takes out his shoes while Arushi puts her sandles in the shoe rack.

"I needed some things to buy for the new assignment." Nakul says without looking at his mother while Arushi comes inside to have some water licking her dry lips. His tone was as always low and emotionless.
