This is a crossover of 'Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam...
Next morning, Khushi's sleep was broken by Buaji's loud voice. It seemed she was calling Khushi out. Khushi glanced at the wall clock and saw that it was 7.30 am. She had only just gone to sleep an hour ago. Rubbing her eyes, she came out of her room, rubbing her eyes and asked, "Kya huya, Buaji? Kyu subha subha bula rahi hai aap hume?" [What is it, Auntie? Why are you waking me up so early?]
"Aye Sanka devi! Kaal raat apni amma ki chitthi parte parte bhi jalebi bana rahi thi ka? Itna sara jalebi kyu hai dining table par?" Buaji asked shaking her head at her niece. [You trouble-maker! Did you make jalebis while reading your mother's letter? Why is there so many jalebis left on the dining table?]
"Wo hum pura khatam nehi par paye the kal raat. Bas bachi hui thori si hi to rakhke gaye the table par." Khushi replied before glancing at the table. She winced as she realized that in her hurry to read her mother's journal, she had left quite a lot of jalebis on the table and they had attracted ants. [I couldn't finish all of them last night. I swear I only left a few of them behind.]
"Janam din hai isiliye aaj kuch kahenge nahi. Firse aise kiya to kan khichenge hum tumhare keh dete hai!" Buaji threatened before taking a seat at the dining table. An amused Payal removed the jalebi plate from the table. Khushi gave her a grateful look in answer. Sitting beside Buaji, Khushi started snoozing again. [I won't scold you today as it's your birthday. But if you do this again, I swear I'll pull your ears off.]

Garima came after finishing her prayer and gave aarti to everyone. "Bitiya, par liya tumhari amma ki chitthi? Kya likkha tha?" she asked Khushi as she ran her fingers through Khushi's hair. [Did you finish reading your mother's letter? What was written in it?]
Recalling the journal, Khushi opened her eyes and exhaled deeply. "Haa, amma. Par liya... aur hume ye bhi pata chal gaya ki akhir aisi kaunsi mazboori thi jiske waza se humare maa aur papa ko humse dur rehna para." she replied. [Yes, mom. I've finished reading that... and now I know what trouble caused my parents to leave me behind.]
Since her parents' story involved highly classified information, she decided to not share them with her family. The identity of the real traitor not only ended up taking her uncle Naveen's life, but it also ruined her both of parents' life as well. Khushi didn't want her current family to get targeted for knowing this secret as well. "Hum iss bareme baad me baat kare? Hume bohot bhuk lagi hai. Amma, aaj humari janam din hai na? Please humare liye Lucknowi biryani bana dijiye!" Khushi pleaded like a little girl. [Can we talk about it later? I'm really hungry. Mom, since it's my birthday, can you please make Lucknowi biryani for me?]
Garima smiled at her daughter affectionately. "Hum already uski taiyari kar chuke hai. Hume pata hai ki tumhe apni janam din pe taufe nahi balki tumhari mann pasand khana khana jyada pasand hai." she told her daughter. Dropping a kiss on Khushi's forehead, Garima went to the kitchen. [I'm already preparing for that. I know you like to have your favorite foods on your birthday rather than getting a gift.]
