ONE MONTH LATER

Karan and Sameer were waiting outside the airport. Both of them were yawning as it was still early in the morning. 

"What's wrong with London people to come at an oddly hour in the morning?" Sameer grumbled.

"I agree with you! I'm so sleepy!" Karan said, leaning against Sameer. 

Sameer moved forward and Karan stumbled, nearly falling on his face. He glared at Sameer but then he saw Rishi and Shivani coming towards them. 

"Welcome back guys! So happy to see you all again." Sameer said, hugging Shivani and Rishi then fist-bumped Arav. Karan did the same.

"Same! How can we not come, its our Preeran's wedding after all!" Shivani said.

"Preeran?" Karan asked confused.

"Yes, yours and Preeta's ship-name!" Shivani replied. Karan make an 'o' expression.

Karan and Sameer helped to put the suitcases in the trunk of the car. Then they all settled in the car and left the airport.

"How's the wedding preparations going on?" Rishi asked quietly to not disturb Pari's sleep.

"It's going well. We are staying at an hotel since all the functions will be held there." Karan explained. 

After an hour drive, they arrived at the hotel. It was situated in a remote area, a bit far from the busy center of Mumbai. 

"This is so pretty! It's so peaceful and calm!" Shivani said. 

"Yes, we wanted the wedding to be a private affair. So I'm sure there won't be any cameras and papparazi. Come, everyone must be waiting for us." Karan said, taking the suitcases.

They entered the lobby of the hotel and were immediately welcome by Shrishti. The two sisters hugged each other tightly. 

"Where are the rest?" Sameer asked her.

"They all taking breakfast. I was waiting for you all to come." Shrishti said, taking the awake Pari in her arms. 

"Ah yes! I need food! I'm so hungry." Arav said, rubbing his stomach.

Karan gave Rishi his room card, after completing the formalities. 

"Let's go, I'm hungry too. The workers will bring your things to your room." Karan said. Rishi thanked him.

They left towards the restaurant area where the Luthras and Aroras clan were sitting.

"Shivani mom! Rishi dad! Arav! Pari!" KV shouted and rushed to them.

"Hey little man! How are you?" Rishi asked, picking him up. Preeta came to them.

"I'm good! I miss you all so much! Arav bhaiyya, come! I will show you something!" Rishi put him down and the children left from there.

"Princess! It's been so long!" Rishi said dramatically, hugging Preeta tightly.

"Ouff, I can't breath! Rishiii!" Preeta broke the hug forcefully and hit him in the arms. She hugged Shivani instead.

"Your husband is mad! It's not even been two months since I last saw you all." Preeta said, rolling her eyes.

"You are such a killjoy Princess! Why are you marrying her?" Rishi asked Karan.

"I don't know man and it's too late to back out!" Karan said sadly. Rishi rubbed his shoulder in comfort.

"Welcome to the club bro." Rishi said.
