Time skips,
Malhan Mansion,

Dimple was at kitchen working with a cold face while Kreya was following her around with a view to convincing her and calming her anger down.

"Aunty baat toh karein." Kreya pleaded.

Abhishek was eating chips with a mischievous smile while watching her pleading his mother. Nishchay, Harsh and Prerna were playing with Asher.

"Dimple yaar, bacchi ko maaf kardo. Naraz mat raho." Vinay said on behalf of Kreya.

But Dimple didn’t reply anything. She served the dinner on table but didn’t even look at Kreya. Abhishek was enjoying teasing her as he knew soon or later, his mother would start talking with her as their bond was just like that only.

"Prerna, iska khana room mein bhej dena." Dimple said in a cold tone.

After sometime of trying to talk to her aunty, Kreya gave up and went to the guest room with her share of dinner. But before leaving from there, she kept a package on the table without anyone noticing. She went to the room and waited for sometime for them to notice the package.

Time skips,

When they were sitting down for eating, Nishchay noticed the package.

"Yeh kya hai, Nonu?" Harsh asked seeing the package.

"Pata nehi. Package pe toh mummy ka nam hai." Nishchay said as he handed the package to his mother. "Kholke dekhna zara mummy."

Dimple unwrapped the package and saw a beautiful water colored canvas portrait of herself.

"Abbey yeh toh...yeh kitna sundar hai yaar. Ohho...mummy ka secret admirer. Dekhrahe ho papa...?" Abhishek said playfully resulting a smack on his head from his father.

"Kisne diya hai yeh? Nam vam likha nehi hai kya?" Prerna said taking the package in her hand and turning it upside down resulting a piece of paper dropping down from the package. It was basically a letter.

Abhishek picked up the letter and started reading. Reading and listening the words of the letter, they were sure of the person who wrote the letter.

The letter......

"Happy mother's day. Waise ap meri mumma toh nehi hai. Par unse kam bhi nehi hai. Mummy agar duniya mein hoti toh aap ne jo kiya shayad wo bhi karte mere liye. Kabhi unki zaroorat mehsoos nehi ki..kyuki pata hi nehi tha ki 'mummy' hoti kya hai aapse milne se pehle. Main aapko sirf do mahino se jaanti hu. Par inn do mahino mein aapne jitna kyal rakha utna kisine nehi rakha. (Yeh baat papa ko maat batana) Yaha aap jitna rangeen ho usse bhi zillion times rangeen ap meri zindegi mein. Yeh taufa meri taraf se aapke liye.
~~Kreya"

"Looking at the portrait, Dimple smiled. "Maaf karde bacchi ko. " Vinay said. "Vaise mere liye ek banana chahiye tha."

They laughed and decided that they Won't talk about this with her unless she said something on her own as they knew Kreya was not really expressive regarding her true feelings.

Dimple smiled as she caressed the painting with love and admiration. Kreya got out of the room amd went towards her with little steps.

She fake coughed gaining everyone's attention. Dimple aunt didn’t look at her but her gaze was not mad anymore. There was a glint of smile and happiness in those eyes.
