Epilogue

After seven years,

Rana was driving the car. Little Aashi was sitting next to him on the passenger seat. He was bringing her home from school. He was her bodyguard these days.

"Uncle, I want ice cream," asked Aashi.

"Sorry beta, Mumma will scold me," Rana said helplessly.

"Give me your phone. I want to make a call" Aashi asked.

Rana knew why she asks the phone and to whom she would call. Yet, he gave the mobile as he could not deny Ms. Aashi Singh Raizada.

Aashi dialed a number. The other side got attended.

"Hello baby, where are you?" Asked her father Arnav who was reading the news about the detective agent NK.

"Papa, I'm on the way home."

"Okkkay... Why did you call me?"

"I want ice cream. Rana uncle has not bought it for me" she said pitifully.

Arnav got stuck. Aashi had a fever after having a lot of ice cream at a Birthday party last week. Till then Khushi restricted her to eat ice cream strictly. Aashi likes ice cream very much a little more than other children. Arnav as well as Khushi knew that.

"Baby, you had a fever last week"

Cutting him,

"But I'm completely alright now, Papa" she pleaded cutely.

"But, Mumma will get angry if you have ice cream"

"Please please, you console her, Papa"

"You just come home. We will talk in person"

"Ok..." She pouted.

Rana smiled seeing her cute expression. She gave his phone back making a sad face.

"You just get Mumma's permission. I will surely get you ice cream" Rana tried to console her.

"But she won't permit me to eat ice cream," she said sadly.

"Because she wants you to be fit and fine. How severely did you suffer from fever last week...? That's why Mumma is not permitting you to have ice cream, beta"

"I will eat only one, uncle" she argued.

"Do one thing. Take Papa's help and talk to Mumma"

"Mmm" she looked outside through the window.

Rana nodded no smiling and continued driving.

When Aashi came home, Khushi lifted her in her arms and kissed her.

"Do you know what I have prepared for you?" Khushi asked excitedly.

"What?" Aashi asked with disinterest.

"Jelabi..."

"Mumma, it's your favorite sweet. If you want to eat it, you can eat. Why do you say you make it for me?" She asked.

Khushi was stunned. What happened to Aashi? Why did she look upset?

"What happened beta? Does anyone annoy you?"

She nodded yes.

"Who? "

She pointed at Khushi raising her finger.

"Me? What do I do?"

"You stopped me from eating ice cream"

Khushi rolled her eyes.
