Pankhuri came back home and directly went to her room. At evening Tulika came to Pankhuri room with two mugs of coffee and offered her one and Pankhuri immediately took the coffee mug and Started sipping coffee along with Tulika.
After sometime Pankhuri kept the coffee mug on the side table and kept her head on her mother lap and said " maa I am not able to understand anything. I mean Piyush is my good friend and I don't want to break his heart and other side I don't love him, what should I do? you only tell me".
Tulika - Pari, do you know that your Pankaj papa nd I were also friends that too childhood friends. Whenever I need him he's always their for me. Pari when we both got married that time also we are only friends he never pressurized me to accept him as my husband. After marriage we got very less time to spend with eachother, But I am sure if today he was alive and even today we would have been husband and wife, I would have fallen in love with him. no one else can could had been a better husband and friend like him.
Pankhuri look towards her emotional mother and again said "so what do you think about this proposal, maa? should I say yes for this marriage?"
Tulika said while caressing her head " beta do what your heart says".
At Night Piyush words and Tulika words are still roaming inside her mind. After thinking for long time at last she came to the conclusion and called Piyush via phone.
Pankhuri - Hello! Piyush I'm ready for this marriage. I will not lie to you, I really don't love you but I care for you like a friend and I promise you I will uphold our relationship with all sincerity and maybe I can fall in love with you in the future.
Piyush happily say's "thank you thank you thank you so much Pankhuri. You do not know how much I owe to you for saying yes to me for the marriage. I will try my best that I can awaken love for myself in your heart".
Pankhuri smiled listening Piyush words after talking for sometime both cut the call and went to sleep.
Next Day Morning at breakfast Pankhuri announced her decision that she is ready for this alliance. Everyone got really happy listening her except one person that is Shruti. Shruti made some excuses and went to her room and locked the door and started crying.
"I hate you Pankhuri I hate you since you came to my life, you have taken everything away from me and today you snatched my love from me but I will not allow this to happen, I will not let you and Piyush get married". Shruti said with pure venom and determination to separate them
On the other side Piyush also informed about Pankhuri decision to his mom and dad. Raghuveer is happy but Rohini is fuming in anger. When Kishori called Rohini and talked with her in phone and half-heartedly Rohini said that she will call priest to her house and asked for auspicious day for engagement and marriage and they all should came to their house when priest will present. To which Kishori said ok and exchanging few words they both hang off the call. After that Rohini called priest and asked him to come Jindal house at evening. Priest came at evening and Rohini asked for a auspicious date for engagement and marriage Priest told after one week there's an auspicious day to do the engagement and after one month there's an auspicious day to do the marriage. All the Rathi family accept the date but Rohini denied saying this that she has to do a lot of preparations. This is a wedding of her one and only child and one month time is very less for doing all the preparations. But Raghuveer said that every preparations will be done and the time of one month is too much, everything will be arranged within the month.
After One Week :
