Aarav's grandfather Mr.Rajendra Sharma and Aanya's grandfather Mr.Ramesh Lohani have been best friends since childhood. They shared a remarkable childhood in the charming town of Nanital. They were inseparable playmates, exploring the lush forests and winding paths of their picturesque hometown. Their bond deepened as they embarked on countless adventures together, from climbing the tallest trees to building secret forts hidden in the woods. Their shared laughter and youthful camaraderie laid the foundation for a lifelong friendship that would transcend generations.

Aanya left her office at 4 and reached her home by 4:30.

"Aanya beta you are late. Now quickly go and freshen up and I have already kept your clothes on your bed wear them and please look presentable" her mother said.

"Okay maa just give me 15 minutes"

Aanya went to her room and took a shower. She was still thinking about Aarav and how hot he looked in his clothes but she didn't like their quarrel, so she decided not to think about him and came out of the bathroom and went to her wardrobe. After that, she quickly changed her clothes and wore a pink colored suit, and her long black hair fell naturally across her shoulders. She then wore earrings matching her dress and her watch, and minimal makeup enhancing her natural beauty.

She came down after 30 minutes had some snacks and then they all left for Sharma's house.

Meanwhile, at Sharma's house, Maya was instructing the workers about food and Aditya was outside in the hall checking for all the arrangements. Aarav had returned home at 5 and was in his room taking a shower and getting ready. He wore a black shirt and paired it with black jeans. He then wore his watch and applied some perfume.

"Mom, when are they coming?" Anika asked.

"They are almost here, I got a call from Ramesh and he said they will be here in 5" answered Rajendra.

Lohani's reached Sharma's place, and Rajendra went outside to receive them. He hugged his best friend as they were meeting after so long. Despite living in the same city they were never able to get together for dinner so it was the first time the families were meeting each other. They knew about each other but had never met.

"Ki haal hariyaan?" Rajendra asked

"How are you?" Rajendra asked

"Main theek choo. Tum kas cha?"

"I am fine.How are you?"

"Me la bhal chu"

"I am also fine"

Aanya touched everybody's feet.

"Ramesh is she your granddaughter Aanya?". Ramesh nodded.

"She was so small when I met her. Now she is so big and beautiful". Rajendra said and then blessed Aanya.

The group made their way inside and took seats on the couches. Maya headed to the kitchen, instructing the house staff to call Aarav and Anika from their respective rooms and to serve water to the guests. Following this, she rejoined Aditya and settled down beside him.

Anika descended and respectfully touched the elder's feet before taking a seat beside Aanya. Even though this was their first meeting, they exhibited remarkable openness and engaged in conversation as if they were lifelong friends who had been separated for a while. If an outsider were to observe them, it would be difficult to fathom that they had just met, as their connection made it seem like they had been acquainted for their entire lives.

In a matter of minutes, Aarav made his entrance. The moment Aanya laid eyes on the man she had been contemplating all morning, she was taken aback. Aarav, however, had not yet noticed Aanya. He began by seeking blessings from the guests, and as he approached Anika, his gaze finally met Aanya's. He was just as surprised to see the woman he had been thinking about sitting beside Anika. Both of them managed to conceal their astonishment and exchanged a subtle nod without revealing any clues about their prior encounter to the family. Aarav then took his seat beside Anika.

The elders were engaged in their conversation, Anaya and Anika were deep in their own discussion, while Aarav remained quietly observant, discreetly keeping an eye on Aanya from the corner of his eyes.
