Reaching the bungalow, they got off the car and Vaishnavi received a call.

Mineil walked in the bungalow and Neil kept the luggage but just then Vaishnavi came running inside and hugged Mini while crying. 

Mini: Kya hua Navi?... Tu theek hai?

 Bobby too came behind her.

Neil: Kya hua?

Bobby: Job se nikaal diya.... 

Mini: Kya?... Lekin kyu?

Vaishnavi: Boss bola bina leave ke itni chuttiyaan kaise le li?... Aur Mumbai ja sakti ho to office aane layak theek to ho hi gayi hogi... It's mere excuses.

Mini: Paagal hai kya vo?... Kuch bhi bakwaas.

Vaishnavi: (crying more bitterly) Apartment bhi khaali karna padega.... kal tak ka time diya hai... 

Mineil looked at each other thinking about how to calm her down now.

Bobby: Are to ro kyu rahi ho?... Calm down karo.

Vaishnavi looked at him confused. 

Bobby: Kya zarurat hai itna load lene ki?... Job ka kya hai?... Aaj chut gayi hai kal mil jayegi... Flat ka kya hai?... Aaj yeh kal vo... Har baar rone lag jaoge to kaise chalega.

Mineil also were highly confused.

Vaishnavi: Matlab?.... To abhi kya karu?

Bobby: Are meri baat agar mano to main to kehta hu... Kuch din patiala chalo... Mini ke saath hi ruk jaana.... Jab tak shaadi ki baat nahi karta..... Job wagera ke liye apply kar lena.... Shaadi fix ho jaye to vo pehle kar lenge... agar interview pehle fix ho gaya to vo de lena.... Phir to Delhi shift hona hi hai na?... Load kyu lena?.... Jahan tak flat ki baat hai... Kal tak ka time hai na?... Koi mast sa flat dekh ke book kar lete hai... Mera business setup to ho chuka hai... I have savings... Apna ghar banayenge usko... (raising his eyebrows) What say?

Mineil were surprised at how nicely Bobby came up with the solution.

Vaishnavi gave a bright smile and hugged him tightly.

Vaishnavi: I love you.

Bobby smiled hugging her back.

Bobby: I love you too.

Mini whistled for both of them. 

Mini: Superb!

Neil: Amazing.

Mineil decided to leave for Patiala in the afternoon to reach by night and thought to meet Keya once before leaving.

Bonavi was out for apartment finalisation so Mineil left after getting ready.

Mini could now wear full length clothes so she wore a full sleeve brown anarkali which was able to hide her every scar and yet was comfortable.

They brought Keya to the park and were playing. Mini got tired by running so she sat on the bench to relax while Neil was playing with Keya happily.

She was adoring them both playing together.

Her heart had a weird ache seeing them both together feeling the void of her father's place in her life. She had felt that void from childhood and seeing Neil playing with Keya. 

She had only two emotions seeing them both, first and major one was of satisfaction that she could help another girl to get her father's love which that little innocent girl would have desired and needed while the other minor one was of pain that she could never get that fatherly affection and the sense of belongingness ever in her life.
