Part 44 Implementing the plan

Arnav reached his in-law's house with his wife and parents. Guptas gave them a warm welcome. Raizadas accepted it, joining their hands.

"We are glad to welcome you," Garima said.

"Yes, Raizadaji, we are happy, you visited our home," Shashi said, shaking his hand with Arvind.

"How could we miss the chance to be with nice people like you?" Ratna said.

"We are glad that my son got good in-laws" Arvind smiled.

"I will bring you something" Garima went to the kitchen and brought them snacks.

"Shall I ask you something, Ratnaji?"

"Tell me, Garimaji"

"Why should you be in Delhi when Damadji is here? You too can settle down with them...!"

Ratna and Arvind looked at Khushi, like, did you talk to your mother about it already?

"No no... I didn't talk to Amma about it. She is talking on her own" Khushi said hurriedly.

Garima frowned as she didn't understand the sequence.

"Khushi asked them the same before we came here..." Arnav smiled.

"Is it? That's good. She is our daughter after all..." Garima smiled.

"Khushi didn't ask anything wrong though... You should consider her request, Raizadaji. A family completes with elders only..." Shashi said.

"But some elders complicate the family too..." Arvind laughed.

"Dad... Enough of joking, ok? We already finished talking about the topic and concluded too..." Arnav said.

Arvind and Ratna glanced at each other, whereas Shashi and Garima didn't know what topic they finished and concluded.

"Amma, uncle, and aunty are going to be with us... They are not going to go to Delhi. That was what we concluded." Khushi told Garima.

"Really? Thank God..." Garima smiled.

"We have not decided yet," Ratna said.

"Mom, Khushi wants you to be with us. You should respect her. Which daughter-in-law wants to be with her in-laws? You should feel glad about getting a good daughter-in-law like Khushi" Arnav flattered his wife.

"Apart from good and bad, it's your right and responsibility to be with your children as well..." Garima said.

"Why are you hesitating?" Shashi asked.

"No no... Nothing is like that..."

"Khushi will not make you feel bad for being with them. I can say that" Shashi said.

"We just thought to give them space"

"You can give the space being with us too," Arnav said.

"See, your son also wants you to be with them..." Garima said.

"Yes, I want them to be with us. To date, I didn't insist you come to me because my schedule is hectic. I'm a busy man. I didn't know when would I come home. Sometimes, I might not come home. But now, Khushi is here. She will have to be alone at home until I come home... That's why I want you to be here with her"

Khushi raised her brows. Arnav was always good at analyzing issues but if he thought about her so much, why didn't he call them to be with them before?

"Ok... We will be here... Happy?" Arvind asked.
