The soft morning light streamed through the curtains, casting a gentle glow over the room. Ayzal slowly stirred, realizing she was lying in Arhaan's arms, her head resting on his chest. She could feel the steady rhythm of his heartbeat beneath her cheek. As the fog of sleep lifted, she remembered the events of the previous night and felt a pang of anxiety.

Arhaan, ever the gentleman, was not touching her, maintaining a respectful distance, aware that Ayzal might not be entirely aware of her surroundings yet. He had spent the night ensuring she felt safe and protected, his presence a silent comfort to her in the midst of their shared turmoil.

As Ayzal began to fully wake up, she gently shifted away, trying not to disturb Arhaan. She glanced at him, his peaceful expression betraying none of the tension from the night before. Quietly, she slipped out of bed and went to bath, taking a moment to collect her thoughts before starting the day.

The gentle knock on the door disturb Arhaan's sleep!!
Who is there come in! He said

the maid, who entered with a message. "Sir, there are guests downstairs to see you. They're from the rehab pediatric hospital."

Arhaan's face lit up at the mention of the hospital. He had been a significant investor and had formed a close bond with the children there. Their courage and resilience had touched his heart, making the cause deeply personal to him.

"Thank you. Please let them know we'll be down shortly," Arhaan replied,

Arhaan warmly greeted Mr. Erect and his wife, Ayra, as he entered.

"Congratulations on your wedding, Arhaan," Mr. Erect said with a smile.

"Thank you," Arhaan replied, offering a polite smile.

Ayra looked around curiously, "Where is your queen, Arhaan?"

Arhaan glanced towards the maid, instructing her, "Please inform Ayzal to join us."

Moments later, Ayzal entered the room, gracefully carrying a tray with tea. She served both Mr. Erect and Ayra, her presence adding a touch of elegance to the gathering.

"So, Arhaan, we're here to invite you! World Disability Day is approaching, and we're organizing a party for our kids. And your presenceis mandatory," Mr. Erect said warmly, extending the invitation.

his eyes reflecting a mixture of anticipation and concern. He knew declining an invitation from such an important day wasn't an option, but he also wondered how Ayzal would feel about attending the party given their current situation.

As Ayzal looked into Arhaan's eyes, she could see his genuine desire to attend the event. Sensing his internal struggle, she decided to speak up.

"We should go, Arhaan. I'm sure it will be a meaningful experience for both of us," Ayzal said softly, offering him a reassuring smile.

Arhaan looked relieved and grateful. As you say we will join you Mr Erect" with smile on his face

After bidding farewell to their guests, Arhaan headed to his office, leaving Ayzal at home. The atmosphere at home was still tense, especially with Arhaan's grandparents. Dadi, in particular, seemed determined to test Ayzal, ordering her to prepare breakfast.

Despite her lack of culinary skills, Ayzal, with the assistance of the maid, managed to prepare a meal for Dadi. Nervously, she served it to her and retreated to her room, hoping she had met Dadi's expectations this time.

After Ayzal left the room Dada and dadi had a conversation about her

Dadi: "She cook for the first time but still meal tastes good" she has some skills

Dada: " You know, she reminds me of our daughter. The way she talks, her kindness, it's like seeing a piece of her in Ayzal." She does seem to have a good heart. Just like Arhaan mother! Maybe we've been too quick to judge her."

Dadi: "I understand, but Arhaan's sudden marriage did upset me. However, I believe we should give Ayzal a chance."

Dada: "I believe she has the potential to bring a lot of happiness into our lives. Let's give her the chance she deserves."

Dadi: "All I want is for Arhaan to be happy. It's been difficult to see him even smile since his parents passed away."
