Mini opened the door and saw Poonam Maasi.

Mini: (happily hugging her) Poonam Maasi!... Kaise ho aap?

Poonam: Main badhiya... Badi khush lag rahi hai meri gudiya... Aisehi rehna.

Mini: Thank you Maasi.

Poonam: Aaj raat ruk jau main yahi?

Mini: Are sure... Kyu nahi... Aise puch kyu rahe ho... Aise bolo ki Mini main yahi ruk rahi hu... haq se bilkul... maasi ho aap yaar meri...

Poonam chuckled.

Mini: Kitne saalon baad mil rahe hai na hum..... Kaise aana hua?

Poonam: Babita ke jaane ki news suni. Tab America me thi. India aayi hu kal hi to socha tujhse pehle mil lu. Theek to hai tu?.... Aur Arya?... Vo kaisi hai?.... Bahot mushkil hoti hogi na tujhe usko sambhaalne me?

Mini: Nahi Maasi... Vo bhi bilkul Babes aur Hanuman uncle jaisi hi to hai... Dono ka chota version hai usme.... Uski aur meri bonding banne me time to laga tha par bonding ho jaane ke baad we are the coolest sisters... Aur vaise bhi Babes ke jaane ke baad... hum dono ke paas koi bhi nahi tha na... jisko hum sirf apna keh sake... to bond vaise hi strong banta chala gaya.

Poonam: Accha hai... Aur Patiala Babes?... Abhi bhi chal raha hai kya?

Mini: Are chal raha hai?.... Expand ho gaya hai... From speciality restaurant to multi cuisine restaurant... Itna jaldi develop hua hai na... ki ab maine catering service bhi kholne ka socha hai... Uska bhi bahot bada order mila hai humko...

Poonam: Wow... Amazing.

Mini: Sab Nei....

Door was open, so Neil entered with Arya in his arms, while talking to her. He was looking at Arya so didn't noticed Poonam and Mini.

Arya: Aur phir Neha, main aur Montu ne Gurveen ki team ko hara diya.

Neil: Phir?

Arya: Phir to Gurveen itna chid gayi thi na.... Hume bahot maza aaya... Vo cheating karke bhi jeet nahi paayi...

Neil chuckled while keeping the guitar bag on the table aside and then turned to see Mini with some guest.

He made Arya stand on the ground and she while holding Neil's hand, came towards Mini.

Neil also followed her.

Mini: Arya... Neil... Inse milo... Yeh hai Babes ki bachpan ki best friend... meri Poonam Maasi... (turning to Maasi while getting up) Aur Maasi... (holding Arya by her shoulders) Yeh hai Arya... Meri Chutanki...

Arya: Namaste Poonam Maasi... Sat-sri-akal.

Poonam: (holding her hand and made her sit beside her) Sat-sri-akal. Baitho mere paas...

Arya sat beside her and then Poonam looked at Mini again.

Mini: (keeping her hand on Neil's shoulder) Aur yeh hai Neil... Mr. Neil Oberoi....

Arya: (interrupting) Veerbalika ka boyfriend.

Mini and Neil looked at her, widening their eyes in shock.

Mini: Phir Dadi Amma bani tum?.... Aise beech me nahi bolte... Main baat kar rahi hu na...

Poonam: Sach me hai kya?... Ya sirf tumhe tease kar rahi hai?

Mini: (Scratching the back of her ear) Bol to sahi hi rahi hai... 

Neil: (keeping his hand on his chest, bowing a little) Namaste. (came to her and bent to touch her feet)
