Every one were over the board excited for Kajal and Avyaan's baby. She was having a few complications in her pregnancy because of which she was keeping unwell. Yet, she managed to keep her charming smile on.

The house was beautifully decorated with bright colored flowers everywhere. Kajal not keeping well frequently was a major reason for the Kulshreshtas' to invite mostly family and a few friends.

The place wasn't really stuffy and It was Kajal's first baby so she definitely wanted to have a baby shower. Avyaan seeing the happiness in her eyes couldn't deny to her request.

Even though Kajal was very tired, she was wearing a beautiful red gown that highlighted her huge baby bump. She had gained some weight and no one was even close to how pretty and happy she seemed.

Her red gown was paired up with a tiara and all in all she was made to wear really light things, even the make up so that she would feel better throughout the ceremony.

Kunal was running late as he had a lot of catch up to do, he had to look into a few matters of his hospital, including a lot of additional works like looking into the matters of the new hospital.

As decided, Swara would be going to the baby shower before him, more like without him and she couldn't be any more scared.

She denied to go to the ceremony at first but Kunal was successful in convincing her. She'd go there. join the celebration for a bit and come back before people start eyeing her.

Even then the plan went under a few alterations, for example; Kunal not being able to accompany her to the ceremony but he assured her that he'll join as soon as he finishes his work.

Swara was so nervous. As if, she was going for an interrogation and not a ceremony.

The theme was Bows and ties and everyone were dressed up accordingly.

Even Dadi for that matter, was wearing a bow on her head with a contrasting baby pink saree.

As a nervous Swara stepped inside the house all eyes were on her. There were a few relatives from Kajal's side whom she definitely didn't know. Other than that a few neighborhood aunties, a few friends and Swara's in-laws.

Swara tried to gulp down the nervousness but she couldn't as she could feel all the stares pierce through her.

What made her feel even more nervous was how her mother in-law stared at her, as if she just did a crime.

She looked down, checking her dress but all she was wearing a Navy blue high-low gown, this time she even made a point to do make up and neither did she forget her Mangal sutra or sindoor, Even though it wasn't matching with her dress.

As Swara quietly chose to stand in a corner and not try to get a little too involved with people, just to avoid any unwanted chaos, Kajal approached her.

"Thanks for coming Swara!" Kajal immediately took her into a hug.

"Wow! you look..." Suddenly Kajal halted taking in her appearance, that made Swara feel a little weird..."...you look gorgeous...I-I mean, I never expected to see you wear this.." Kajal giggled, taking her into a again.

Swara tried smiling, not to show a single drop of awkwardness on her face. 

She definitely didn't know that Kajal had studied psychology and reading human emotions was no big deal for her. Once she realized that Swara may have gotten uncomfortable, she tried her best to uplift her mood.
