Shreya listened to the conversation between Daya and Abhijeet, her face lighting up with joy at the mention of visiting Banaras. However, her happiness was short-lived, as a worrying thought crept into her mind, and she suddenly looked upset.

She got up from the living room, holding little Abhimanyu in her arms, and headed toward room. Meanwhile, Tarika was on a phone call in her room when she heard a knock on the door. She saw Shreya standing there and invited her in.

Tarika- Shreya Andar aao.....

Shreya come inside and Tarika ended her call and noticed Abhimanyu sleeping in Shreya's arms.

Tarika - Ye so gya...

She took Abhimanyu from Shreya and gently laid him in his cradle.Shreya sat on the bed, lost in thought, her expression troubled. Tarika sat beside her, concerned.

Tarika - Shreya kya huaa?

Shreya tried to brush it off - Nothing, di.

But Tarika persisted - Shreya Tum pareshan lag rhi ho, Baato mujhe kya huaa h.....

Shreya spoke in a low voice - Dii, Jiju ne to aapko bataya hoga na buaa jii ke phone call ke baare me ..

Tarika thought for a moment and then remembered...

Tarika - A... Ha yaad aaya par Mujhe Samjh nhi aaya tum kyu pareshan ho......

Shreya looked hesitant and a little nervous, fidgeting with her hands.

She said, her voice barely above a whisper - Dii, kya Hamara Banaras Jaana jaruri h....

Tarika looked at her in confusion....

Tarika placed her hand on Shreya's shoulder and asked - kya baat h tum Vha Jaana nhi chahti....

Shreya immediately shook her head.

Tarika pressed on - Par kyu? Tum to college time se Banaras Jaana chahti thi.... to ab kya huaa....

Shreya looked down, her eyes avoiding Tarika's gaze.

Tarika's expression turned sympathetic - Shreya, tumhare dil me kya h?

Shreya's shoulders slumped, and she took a deep breath before speaking in a barely audible whisper...

Shreya's voice was barely audible - I love to visit Banaras...(Her expression turned sad, and she continued)par I don't think ki abhi hamara Banars jana thik h...

Tarika was confused by Shreya's words and expression, trying to understand but unable to grasp the underlying reason.

Tarika - Or Tumhe aisa kyu lagata h...

Shreya explained - Di Aap hi sochiye na It's too wired.....Ham un logo se phale kabhi bhi nhi mile Ha ak baar aapki or Dii Shadi me mile the par Kitna time ho gya na baat hui na kabhi mile or ab directly pregnancy me milna... I feel so weird and uncomfortable....
........
Aapko pata h ( she trun her face towards Tarika ) Kabhi kabhi to hame ham jinhe jaante h, jinse roj milte h unke samne jaane me bhi ajib lagta h.....Fir un sab ko to jaante hi kitna h....

Tarika listened attentively to Shreya, understanding her emotions. She knew it was common during pregnancy to feel uncomfortable meeting new people, and Shreya's situation was already different as Daya's wife. Tarika smiled warmly and placed her hand on Shreya's shoulders to calm her, noticing how stressed and nervous she looked..
