Khushi learns about her biological parents Rajveer Singh Shikhawat and Naina Singh Ahluwalia on her 20th birthday. What would she do when she learned the reason behind her parents' absence in her life?
This is a crossover of 'Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam...
First of all, I'm from Bangladesh, as most of you would know if you have read my story "Why am I here?" All the shows from Starplus are only available on Disney plus Hotstar. This app is NOT available in my country. So, whatever I'm writing of "Iss pyaar ko kya naam doon" is either from memory, short YouTube clips, or a few episodes watched during lockdown. So, please don't be offended if I mess up.
I'm also claiming freedom to create as the Author 😜😜😜
Another important thing::::
This story is happening in an Alternate universe. So timetable and history doesn't matter. For the story's sake, just go with the flow. 😜😜😜

Everyone was exhausted but happy as Payal's engagement had been completed without any trouble. The elders of the Gupta family were all gathered in Shashi and Garima's bedroom. Garima and Madhumati were chatting about the function when Shashi started making noises. Since he was paralyzed, he wasn't able to talk. But his current treatment seemed to be working on his body even if it was showing its effects slowly. He was now able to make different sounds and gestures.
Seeing Shashi make noises, Garima asked, "Kya huya ji? Kuch chahiye tha apko?" [What is it? Do you need something?]
Shashi kept on gesturing towards the steel almirah at the other side of the room. Garima and Madhumati exchanged a confused look. "Kuch chahiye apko almari se?" Garima asked. [Do you need something from the almirah?]
Shashi nodded, glad that his wife understood what he was trying to say. Garima went to the almirah and opened it before looking back at her husband.
"Uummmaa....Kh-khuuuuyyyii....b-b-boooxxx," Shashi managed to say with a lot of effort.
Garima looked confused at first. "Khushi ka box? Khushi ka kaun sa box hai iss almari mein?" she asked her husband, puzzled. [Khushi's box? What box?]
"Kkhhhuuuuyyiii.... uummmmaaa," Shashi managed to reply as he gestured towards the left side of the almirah.
"Khushi's umma?" Garima asked before realization dawned on her. She gasped aloud. "Khushi's amma? Kya aap mujhe Khushi ki amma ka box lane ko bol rahe hai?" she asked. [Khushi's mother? Are you telling me to get Khushi's mother's box?]
Shashi nodded as he sighed in relief. Finally, he was able to make his wife understand his desire.
"Shashi babuya, Titliya ki amma ka dabba achanak kyu nikalwa rahe ho?" Madhumati, Shashi's older widowed sister, inquired curiously. [Shashi, why do you need Butterfly's mother's box suddenly?]
Shashi gave his sister a patient look before gesturing towards the calendar hung on the wall behind her. Madhumati turned towards the calendar and gasped. "Hayere Nandkishor! Kal to Sankadevi ki janam dibas hai!" she exclaimed. [OMG! It's her 20th birthday tomorrow!]
Shashi nodded as if to say that's why. Garima gasped softly when she realized what her husband meant to do. She realized that it was time to tell Khushi the truth about her biological parents. She got the wooden box out from the bottom left side and brought it to the bed. The box was 20 years old. Khushi's mother had it custom made to preserve its contents. This box was 15 inches long and 10 inches wide in size, and had a golden lock. Shashi had the key of this box which he was supposed to give to Khushi on her 20th birthday.
