Rocky found Reena giving commands to the staff and admired her authority.

He sat down and was soon joined by Fathima ma who came forward to serve him.

" Ma, you please sit down, I'll serve you both " Reena made Fathima ma sit next to him and started to serve them both.

Rocky couldn't help but notice Reena 's hand. For a second he thought he saw his name written on her palms.

Reena always had a habit of writing his name on her mehendi. She even insisted that she get a tattoo of his name , but he was totally against the idea.

When he finally finished his breakfast, Rocky was served with the kheer he was surprised. He never received any sweet with his food .

" Rocky, Reena made this for you for the ritual"

Rocky took a small taste and replied " it's good" while his face remained emotionless.

Rocky soon left for the mines.

Reena was confused with his reaction to her dish . Did he really like it?

By afternoon, she started to enquire one of the guard about his arrival.

" Bhabhi! , Bhai said that he might not join you for lunch today"

Fathima ma heard their conversation and saw Reena's frown.

" You don't worry beti, we will send him the lunch"

" Can I go , ma ?" Reena asked like a child.

" You are newly married beti but don't worry you can go tomorrow for sure " Reena smiled to the reply and started to pack his lunch.

At last Reena was struck with the dilemma to whether pack the kheer or not. Somewhere her mind decided to pack it too.

Rocky tried to get immersed in his work as possible . The taste of her kheer still in his tongue and memories still fresh in his mind.

" Ma! What is the special smell?"

"Oh , so my Raja finally guessed it "

Sometime later.

" Ma, please reveal it soon , I'll die out of curiosity" shanthamma immediately covered her son's lip.

" Never talk about your death when I'm here , ok?"

" Ok ma , but atleast reveal what you are making "

" I'll give you hints; it is white in colour , made with rice an-"

" Is it kheer? " Little Raja finally found the mystery.

" Yes Raja "

" But what is so special about today?"

" Because it's my Raja's birthday "

" I love you ma " .

" I love you too my baccha "

" Bhai! Bhabhi have sent your lunch!" Farmaan brought the tiffin carrier with excitement.

" Keep it aside and continue to work "

" But Bhai, bhabhi have sent it so much love. I'll just open and see what she have sent for you " farmaan started to open the carrier as he couldn't contain his curiosity.

" Bhai ! All your favourites "

Rocky guessed that she might have got the information from Fathima ma.
