From Escape to Embrace

chapter 2 The unselfish spirit

chapter 2: The unselfish spirit

The following morning, Ginny spent some time chopping vegetables while Preeti was cooking and screaming that she wanted to go shopping.
"Why do you keep bringing up Ginny if I am not in need anything?"
Why not, exactly? You also need to buy certain things for Bhaiya Bhabhi and the baby.
I don't think so; Kunal must have purchased a lot of items for the newborn, and Nisha rarely ever wears Indian clothing, so there's no need for these items.
Alright, so you don't have to buy anything. I have to send some clothes for the baby and Bhai Bhabhi, too. Please, Aunty, I will arrange dance classes in the morning. After that, we're going shopping.
Ginny, you can be exceptionally stubborn some times."
Ginny pouted at Preeti, making it clear that she was not going to let her live in peace until she agreed with her demand.
Alright, so can we now enjoy a quiet breakfast?
Yes, why not?
Ginny said as she gave her aunt a quick hug before they sat down to breakfast.
As scheduled, Ginny rescheduled her morning classes, arrived home, and left for the market.
It was afternoon and Ginny and Preeti were strolling across the Hazratganj market. Ginny bought some baby items for the new baby because they already knew it would be a boy, so she picked out plenty of adorable designs.
even after preeti's persistence, Ginny got Kunal bhaiya a kurta and Nisha bhabhi a gorgeous chikankari outfit.
Preeti was only in awe of the girl who spent her entire savings to Kunal Nisha and the child.
As agreed upon, they had already eaten lunch at a renowned Hazratganj eatery.
Ginny saw that her aunt had purchased various kurtis as well as gowns suitable for the party in between her shopping trips. Ginny was relieved that preeti aunty had finally had a change of heart and chosen to purchase something for Nisha bhabhi.
After taking a cab from Hazratganj at Preeti's request, they arrived back at their society late in evening. Although Gunjan was an experienced driver, Preeti was always apprehensive about riding on the scooter with her since she enjoys speed, but preeti  is afraid of it.
Ginny advised as she made her way back inside the building
"Aunty, I'm hungry right now."
"Yes, I understand. Don't worry. I'll quickly prepare you food to eat."
"No, you're exhausted too. Why don't we simply place an order at the restaurant?"
Grinning, Preeti, who was unlocking the door, looked at Ginny before questioning.
"Outside  food! Two times a day.
"Um," Gunjan replied.
"No way. Just give me fifteen minutes, and I'll make you something."
Gunjan pouted and began to plead again, something she is good at. This time, she wanted pizza.
"Please, auntie, just one pizza. We don't even need to place an order. I'll get it from Vaibhav's bakery to avoid incurring additional charges.
Preeti was aware of her true intentions.
Yes, I am familiar with both your buddy Juhi's boutique in the same complex as well as Vaibhav's bakery.
Since Juhi and Vaibhav were her grade school friends, Ginny pouted once again.
Preeti continued to mumble as she stored the shopping bags in her room, and Ginny trailed behind.
Preeti entered the kitchen after placing the bags down, and Ginny continued to follow her.
Although Vaibhav is still an adult with responsibility and supports his father in running his bakery, that juhi—ooh God, that girl is really an item. Please take note that she  finished her 12th grade education and graduated partly, thanks to you; if you hadn't assisted her, she would still be in 12th grade.
"Well, that's true in certain respects, and I know she's a little crazy, but she's also really helpful and kind. Aunt, can I get some pizza now?"
After giving her a persistent slap on the head, Preeti simply nodded and sighed.
After giving her a happy hug, Gunjan hurriedly left the house. She heard Preeti urging her to come back early.
Since the Sai Sadan building was situated near to the complex, Ginny made the decision to stroll to the bakery.
She soon arrived in the complex, but first she stopped by Juhi's boutique before heading to Vaibhav's bakery.
after going through the vibrant boutique. juhi noticed her and gestured for Gunjan to sit down, even though she could see Juhi was preoccupied with a few customers. After settling onto the empty chair, Gunjan looked around.
She observed gowns that were hung on racks and enjoyed the mood created with the colorful fabric across the shop.
After Juhi finished her conversation with the client, the client departed.
Juhi gave Gunjan a furious look before telling her
"Cheater, what are you doing here?"
Cheater! And me?
"Yes, you. I am aware that you went shopping in Hazratganj but preferred not to tell me. I should have been with you, but no, you just chose to break up with me.
It's not like that, dear. In fact, Aunty is heading to the US next week, so I want to pack some things for the infant and Bhai Bhabhi. For that reason,.
"Ah, so Preeti Aunty accompanied you. That's okay, since Preeti Aunty may not have appreciated having me around."
Gunjan attempted to hide the fact that . "No, it's not like that."
"Ah, just let it be; there's no need to cover up.
Tell me, however, what you are saying about Kunal Bhaiya on that day.
Gunjan sighed and informed her closest friend of what Kunal had said to her during the phone conversation.
"You mean Preeti aunty won't ever come back here?"
Gunjan wiped her moist eyes and shook her head at what she heard.
"Wow, that's fantastic!"
Gunjan gave her a fierce look, so Juhi quickly covered up.
"No, I mean, that's sad but Kunal Bhai is right at his place; he must also be concerned about his mother."
"Well, I understand.
And you dont have to worry? Vaibhav is also here to give you with support, besides me.
We'll take care of you. Dear, don't worry.
After a while, Gunjan grinned at her, and after noticing the time, Juhi locked the boutique and the two of them headed to the bakery.
When they arrived at the restaurant, they observed a crowd of young people waiting for their orders while seated at the tables.
The girls thought it was an excellent plan that Vaibhav converted his dad's little bakery into a tiny restaurant.
Vaibhav waved his hand after spotting the friends, and they responded.
When Gunjan got to the counter, she ordered her pizza. Juhi placed a pastry order as well.
Vaibhav gestured for them to enter the counter so he could assist with the counter and converse with them.
The girls rushed to stand next to him and asked, "So, what's up, gals? Ginny, I have heard of Aunty's trip to the United States. You're not accompanying her.
Gunjan shook her head in denial as her face fell once more.
How would you manage on your own? I'm talking about...
"Ooh sh*t you idiot, my Ginny is a strong girl; she'll handle it just fine. and additionally  we'll be here to support her as well?
Juhi gave Vaibhav a fierce look, indicating that he realized his mistake and nodded.
Yes, truly. I mean, why not?"
In an effort to lift Ginny's spirits, Juhi purposefully changed the subject to music, then fashion, and finally her annoying customers. Vaibhav encouraged her.
Before long, the bakery helper passed Ginny the parcel, and Ginny took the cash and gave it to Vaibhav.
how many times I have assured you that I will not take payment from friends?
As Juhi was finishing her pastry, she said, "Yup, he is right. See, i never pay him."
After glancing at juhi, Gunjan replied to vaibhav
" in that case, this pizza is not going my home and you don't want me to have it. Please take this money."
With a sigh, Vaibhav held the cash she had given her, and included a good discount. then return the change, which ginny held with a smile  Ginny stood apart from other people because of her kind nature and genuineness.
Ginny said goodbye to them and headed to her nearby building.
Vaibhav informed Juhi that as he looked at her figure, she was retreating.
She is really selfless and unique from other people.
It makes sense why her mother, Gitanjali Mehra, divorced from a multimillionaire without taking a penny in compensation.
Ah, that's correct."juhi agreed
But you genuinely believe Juhi that she will survive by on her own here?
soon they heard Ginny scream from the nearby alley.
"help, please help."
When Vaibhav and Juhi rushed into the alley, they were shocked to see what they found.
Two small puppies were racing behind Ginny as she ran, carrying the pizza boxes close to her.
"Ginny, wait.'
When Vaibhav yelled, it fell on deaf ears, so Juhi and Vaibhav ran to her. They held the puppies and forced them to run out the other side.
Juhi ran to check on Ginny, who was having trouble breathing heavily.
Oh my god, are you okay?
Yes, thank you. I had a fear that they would kill me.
Kill you! these puppies? You seem insane, Gunjan Mehra." juhi scolded her
"You make a run first, which is why they are running."
You are aware of my fear for dogs, and I promise you that I intended to stay away from them, but they started barking and soon chased me.
Observing the pizza on her outfit, Vaibhav made a remark.
These pizzas have gone bad now.I'll send you another one after you leave.
Okay, "she said, passing the squeeze pizza boxes and wrinkled her nose at her kurta, which was covered in pizza sauce.
Just as Vaibhav was about to return, Ginny called him again.
Hold on and take the money. "
"Pay me later, it's okay."
"Alright, so please send the pizza when I have paid.
Sighing at her stubbornness, Vaibhav held the money she was passing him.
"Alright, now leave for home."
With a nod, Gunjan headed toward her building.
Vaibhav told Juhi, who is still looking at Gunjan.
"Are you still convinced she'll cope alone here for the next three months? "
Juhi gave him a quick glance before shaking her head, since she was starting to worry about her. eventually stated to Vaibhav
"She must now cope alone for the rest of her life, not just for three months.  Preeti auntie will never return here?"
What and how come? " Vaibhav inquired with surprise.
Juhi gave him a nod as she began to worry about her best buddy.
