Next morning
6 am
Akshara wakes up. She has a habit of waking up early. She has a set routine of doing yoga and meditation after taking bath. She quietly moves from the bed without making noise. She enters the washroom and takes a quick bath. She then puts on her yoga clothes and does a yoga followed by a deep meditation. She then changes into a simple pink Anarkali suit. She applies basic makeup. She wears earrings and her mangalsutra and puts a pinch of vermillion, completing her married look.
She sees Abhi sleeping peacefully. She admires him sleeping like a baby without any stress and tension. She decides not to wake him up as it is only 7 am in the morning. She decides to move downstairs.
She finds noone, only servants working, wrapping up the decorations. She then finds her mother in law working in the kitchen.
Akshu Pov
Pata nahi Mummyji kaise hogi, I mean agar woh TV serial jaisi saas nikali toh. Nahi nahi akshu yeh kya soch rahi hai. Aese nahi sochte. All mother in laws are not bad. Tere family mai toh aese kitne examples hai.
Dar mat jaake unse normally mil baat kar.
Pov ends
Akshu : Mummyji.
Manjiri looks towards her and gives a sweet smile. Akshara feeling delighted returns the smile. She quickly moves towards her and touches her feet.
Manjiri is surprised seeing her all ready in a traditional attire like a newly wedded bride and touching her feet.
She was told that she is US return doctor. She didn't expect her to know any tradition. She blesses her.Manjiri : Khush raho beta.
Akshu : Thank you Mummyji.
Manjiri: Beta tum mujhe Maa bula sakti ho jaise Abhi aur Neil kehte hai.
Akshu : Ok Maa.
Manjiri: Vaise tum itni jaldi kaise uth gayi. Neend nahi aayi kya.
Akshu : Arae nahi nahi Nind toh achi aayi, but mujhe jaldi utne ki aadat hai and aaj meri Pehli rasoi bhi toh hai.
Manjiri: Beta tum sach mai yeh rasam karogi.
Akshu(confused) : Ofcourse Maa, isme puchne wali kya baat hai. Its my first day, toh yeh toh karna hi hoga.
Manjiri POV
Maine jaisa socha tha Akshara vaise nahi hai. Woh toh bahut pyaari hai. Matlab ab bhi umeed hai Abhi ki khushiyon ki.
Pov ends.
Manjiri : Sorry beta woh mujhe laga, tum videsh mai pali badi ho tum yeh sab nahi maanti hogi.
Akshu: Haa maa, lekin woh kehte hai na "phir Dil hai hindustani" (dramatically) bas waisa khich samjh lijiye.
Manjiri laughs with her, she is really liking her nature.
Akshu : Acha maa mujhe bataiya na sabko kya kya pasand hai. Mai aaj sabki pasand ki ek dish banana chahti hu.
Manjiri : Beta us mai toh bahut samay lag jayega. Aur itne saare logo ke liye tum bana logi khana.
Akshu : Haa maa, aap tension mat lo. Mai sab kar lugi. Aap bas mujhe sabki fav breakfast dishes bataiye.
Manjiri : Thike beta, but tu akeli nahi karegi, mai bhi teri madad karugi.
Akshu smiles at her.
Ak: Thank you Maa.
Man : Toh Neil aur Parth ko Kachori bahut pasand hai. Nishta and Shefali ko vegetable poha bahut pasand hai. Tumhare papa, Taiji and tauji bahut health conscious hai toh vegetable sandwich acha lagta hai. Aur Abhi ko Pancakes ache lagte hai.
Ak : Maa aap ek person ko bhul gayi.
Manjiri recalls all the names she took.
Manjiri : Nahi beta sabki pasand maine bata di tumhe.
Ak : Maa apne aapki fav breakfast dish toh boli hi nahi.
Manjiri get shocked listening to her.
Ak : Aapko kya pasand hai maa?
Manjiri becomes emotional listening to this. A small drop of tear falls from her eye. Akshu panicks seeing this.
Akshu : Maa kya hua aap ro kyu rahe ho.? Maine khuch galat kaha kya.
Man : Nahi beta, woh bas kabhi kisine pucha hi nahi ki mujhe kya pasand hai.
Akshu hugs Manjiri
Akshu : Koi baat nahi, ab mai aa gyi hu na, mai aapki saari fav dishes banaugi.
Akshu says smiling. Manjiri adores her and places a hand on head blessing her.
Akshu : Acha ab toh bata do ki aapko kya pasand hai?
Manjiri was about answer, when Abhimanyu answers.
Abhi : Maa ko Khaman dhokla aur podine ki chatni pasand hai.
Akshu's face lits up hearing this.
Akshu : Maa give me a high five.
She says raising her hand. Manjiri doesn't understand it, so Akshu takes her hand slowly and hi fies her.
Akshu : Dhokla toh meri bhi fav dish hai.
She says getting excited. She then realises Abhi is also here.
Man : Vaise Abhi aaj itna jaldi kaise uth gaya.
Abhi : Khuch nahi maa bas nind khul gayi.
Akshu : Abhimanyu Good morning.
Abhi (smile) : Good morning Akshara.
Manjiri smiles seeing Abhi smiling genuinely.
Akshu : Acha Abhimanyu aap morning drink mai kya lete ho?
Abhi is not surprised hearing it. She has been surprising him enough since yesterday. His mind came to only one conclusion that she is different.
Manjiri was about to answer when, abhi said.
Abhi : I like coffee in morning, strong with less sugar.
Akshu gives him a thumbs up. Akshu quickly prepares his coffee and hands it over to him. He smiles taking the coffee and leaves from there.
Here Akshu starts preparing for the breakfast with Manjiri helping her.
Abhimanyu PoV
I woke a bit early today. And it suddenly striked me that I am married. I looked towards my right but couldn't find her. Freshening up a little, I went downstairs to look for her and meet Maa.
I couldn't find her in the hall or living room, the n I moved towards the kitchen. I was shocked seeing her clad in a very beautiful Anarkali, she looked very beautiful. She was talking to Maa. I was surprised at how she was asking everybody's fav dishes, but what touched my heart was she specifically asked Ma what she liked, I could see those happy emotions in Maa's eyes. I interrupted informing her Maa's fav dishes. She happily hi fied Maa saying she likes it too. Oh God, this girl is so cute and her smile. Then she wished me good morning and asked about my morning drink preference. I told her I liked coffee. She immediately made me a cup a coffee. I don't know what future has in its store but one thing I certainly know is that I am liking her presence.
