Later that day
Darshan dropped Harshita at her home

"Where were you?"Rishabh asked as soon as she entered
"Uh.. actually-"
"Bahar jati hai to message kar Diya kar....thank fully Darshan ne inform Kiya tha ki tu uske sath hai"He said
"Sorry"She said and went upstairs

After a while someone knocked
"Harshu"Her mother called
"Hmm?"she looked at her
"Beta..woh subah...Rajal aunty was just asking....we didn't fix anything"Jayashree said sitting beside her
Harshita chuckled"Thank you for not fixing"
"But you know what....now I am not sure about anything....like I am scared of waking up...Maybe I'll wake up tomorrow and you'll tell me that it's my marriage"She said
"Evum kami nathi beta"Jayashree said trying to console her

"Aisa nahi hai Harshita"Pawan said entering
"Toh?kaisa hai?Papa just tell me if you are tired of me.....I'll move out...or just go back to LA"Harshita said and went to the balcony
"Pagala jevi vata na karo Harshu!"He said looking at her disappearing figure
"Tami pagalajevi vata Karo Cho"Harshita said in cracked voice

He went inside the balcony and stood beside her watching the stars

"Harshu"he called
She didn't respond
"I know you are mad at us rn....but it's not like we have fixed everything....they were just asking you"
"You would've fixed papa....agar main office gayi huti direct..to aapne gor dhana kya...shaadi fix kar li hoti"she said
"I just don't understand why you are in such a hurry....I am not going to run away"
"Har baat samjhayi nahi jati...kuch khud se samajh Jani chahiye beta"He said patting her shoulder and left... leaving confused Harshita behind

Meanwhile At Raval's house

"Umm..w-welcome back"Rajal said being scared of her beloved son's reaction
But to her surprise...he smiled widely
"I've had my dinner outside maa"he said going towards his room
"Okay"She replied
After he was disappeared completely
"Hai bhagwan....how is this possible...Darshan is not mad?"She asked looking at Rajendra
"I am shocked too"He said looking at his room

"Maa where is my suitcase?"Darshan asked
"Bed ki trolly me rakhi hai"She answered
"Left or right"He asked again
"Dono dekho na beta...I don't remember now"she said
"Okay"

Wait...why is he asking about suitcase?

"Kya kar Raha hai?"Rajal asked as he was folding his clothes and placing them in suitcase
"Nothing....woh...kal Jyugal or hum sab Ooti ja rahe hai...6-7 din ke liye toh packing kar Raha hu"He answered
"Ooti?6-7 din?...why didn't you tell us before?"She asked in surprise
"Arey abhi fix nahi Kiya tha"He answered
"Toh tu batane kab wala tha?pohochne ke baad?"Rajendra asked coming inside
"Nahi papa...bas packing ke baad batane hi wala tha"Darshan said with a smile

Next morning they bid a goodbye to him early as he said he had an early morning flight....around 3.15 in the afternoon... someone ranged the door

"Hello"Darshan said with a smile to their maid while entering
She smiled and closed the door behind getting back to her work
"Darshan?"Rajal said coming out
"How are you here?"Rajendra asked
"Matlab?"Darshan looked at them
"You said you're going to ooti"Rajal said
"Ohh ha...woh cancel kardiya"He said pouring water in glass
"Cancel?kab?"Rajendra asked
"Aaj..subah hi"He answered

"Toh tune bataya nahi?"Rajal asked
"Ab bata toh Diya"Darshan said
"What is wrong with you?"Rajendra said
"What?"Darshan asked
"Raat ko batate ho ooti Jane ka plan bana hai...subah Ghar se nikalte ho....dopahar ko bolte ho cancel hogaya...what do you think we are?do you even consider us or not Darshan?aaj kal sab hone ke baad bata rahe ho"Rajendra said in a Little loud voice
"Oh...you think it is wrong papa?...then what are you doing with us is right?..Maine toh bhi sirf trip plan Kari thi to aapko itna trigger ho Raha hai.... you guy's are literally taking decisions about our lives without us knowing"Darshan bursted
"B-beta hum sirf baat kar-"
"I know....I understand okay....mujhe ye bhi pata hai you guy's will never do something that is bad...I know you must be desperate for your son's marriage now...but it's not about ME only Maa.... It's about US....aur mujhe sab jaldi hone se koi problem nahi hai.. doesn't mean Harshita ko bhi nahi hogi!wo just ek saal pehle yaha Aayi hai...think about her too... consider her feeling as well...please"He said and went inside his room

"Now I understand why he suddenly decided to go on a trip without telling us"Rajendra said and went inside
"Ab sab aapke hawale hai bhagwan"Rajal said infront of Mandir in their house

After calming down...he took his phone

*Everything alright?*he texted Harshita
*Yeah..we can say*she replied after some time

*Okay...I have talked to Maa-Papa.... don't think about it too much:)*
*Thank you🫠..you too..take care*
*Yup!...where are you?at work?*he asked
*Haa...making designs for the guy who is simply texting someone from home.. probably rolling on his bed🙂*Harshita texted
He chuckled seeing her message
*C'mon...I know you love working for him*
*In your dreams*
*Haha...so I am right...You are in the office*
*Haa baba*
*Toh why are using phone!?get back to work or else I'll tell Naushad Bhai*he texted
*So mean of you Raval...BYE!🫡*Her reply made him laugh
