A Mother's Will

Chapter 9

The family thought they were getting the answers to their questions, which was not the case.

There was a car that came inside the gates, and while the others wondered who it was, Jovana and Abhi ran to meet each other. They were not long-lost siblings; they were very close brothers and sisters who often went out together in foreign countries, and as a ritual, they went to Hawaii each year to ride on the waves. They were close, and Jovana was very happy; her maternal grandparents knew all about her all the time. They both talked until sunset, when finally, Ayaan reminded him that he has to go back to Delhi the very night, and Abhi got up to leave, turned, and said, Grandparents hope to see you soon, Jovana, and then looked at Jade and Jaden and said in a firmer voice, "I hope you are taking good care of f her." Abhi is always loved and welcomed at Gratia; he is also an Ayaan business partner. They had a very deep bond as friends and family.

Kaira was that attention seeker in the house, and now that they had found something, they needed to hear it from Jovana herself, from a telecast of a fashion show. Kaira paved her way on making the drama exactly what she liked, you know, actors! She found the perfect time to single out Jade. When the whole family was eating dinner, they stood on the first floor's internal balcony. She kept a question in front of her. Is Jovana in the show business? Jade, not knowing the trap, said it quite normally. YES! Why do you ask? Kiara just said I thought so, so that's why. Every family member heard it loud and clear, to which Ramya said she is in show business, which is such a disgrace to our family trying to fill her husband's ears. Karanveer reverted, even though you were once in the same business.

That same evening, Jovana was planning and discussing the details of her launch with Jade. So, they concluded on going to Mumbai, then Bangalore, then Hyderabad, followed by Ahmadabad, Pune, and Jaipur, the final being Delhi, and then she would visit her grandparents'. To this plan, Jaden added that the security in every city needs to be taken care of. Give me a day. Go ahead, Jovana said; till then, we can take tomorrow for the dress selections, right? Their discussion was interpreted by Riyaan as saying we have our goddess festival in nine days and that Jovana can't leave like that. It came finally after many years, and she should be there, Ayaan added to the insisting. To this end, Jovana finally gave up and said, "Okay, I will be back in 7 days.".
