With the dinner concluded and the delightful aroma of homemade dishes lingering in the air, the family migrated to the comfortable living area. They settled into cozy seats, ready to delve into discussions about the upcoming engagement ceremony—a pivotal event that would mark the official beginning of Shubman and Sadhana's journey towards marriage.

Sadhana, surrounded by the warmth of her future in-laws and feeling the embrace of a newfound family, looked towards Shubman with a smile. Shubman, in turn, expressed his excitement about the engagement, and the family began sharing ideas, traditions, and personal touches they wished to incorporate into the ceremony.

Shubman's mother, with a glint of anticipation in her eyes, suggested, "Let's make the engagement a reflection of our combined cultures. We can blend traditional customs with modern elements, creating an event that is uniquely ours."

Sadhana's mother, appreciating the sentiment, added, "That sounds lovely. It's a celebration of two families coming together, and we should ensure that the engagement mirrors the unity and love we share."

As they discussed various aspects of the engagement, such as the venue, decorations, and ceremonial rituals, the living area buzzed with excitement. Stories of past engagements, family traditions, and anecdotes from other celebrations filled the room, creating a tapestry of shared experiences.

Sadhana, feeling grateful for the warmth and acceptance she had found in Shubman's family, actively participated in the discussions, sharing her own ideas and aspirations for the engagement ceremony. The air was filled with laughter, joy, and a sense of togetherness—a prelude to the harmonious celebration that awaited them

As the family delved into discussions about the engagement, filled with enthusiasm and shared ideas, they collectively agreed on a date that would mark the beginning of this joyous celebration. The air buzzed with excitement as Shubman, Sadhana, and their families came together to choose a day that held significance for them all.

Shubman's father, looking at the calendar, suggested, "How about the 15th of next month? It gives us enough time for preparations, and it's a date that aligns well with both our traditions."

Sadhana's mother nodded in agreement, "That sounds perfect. The 15th it is. It gives us ample time to organize everything seamlessly."

The date was circled on the calendar, symbolizing the official commencement of the engagement festivities. With the day marked, the family continued their discussions, diving into the finer details of the ceremony—deciding on the venue, planning the decorations, and discussing the rituals that would be a part of this meaningful occasion.

Shubman, stealing a glance at Sadhana, couldn't help but feel a surge of happiness. The date they had chosen represented more than just a day on the calendar; it marked the beginning of a new chapter in their lives—a chapter filled with love, unity, and the promise of a beautiful journey together.

As the night unfolded and the family members retreated to their respective rooms, Shubman and Sadhana found themselves in the comfort of their own space. Shubman, unable to resist his playful nature, began to flirt with Sadhana as they settled in.

"Looking forward to the engagement, sweetheart," he said with a charming smile. "I can already imagine how stunning you'll look, and I'll be the luckiest man there."

Sadhana, enjoying the banter, responded with a teasing grin, "Well, you better be ready to keep up with me on the dance floor, Shubi. I've heard you're quite the dancer!"

Before their playful exchange could continue, a familiar knock echoed at the door. Aarna, knowing well that Shubman was likely to be shirtless, couldn't resist the temptation to catch a glimpse. She knocked on the door, feigning innocence.
