BELATED HAPPY BIRTHDAY SANTHI ❤️✨

RECAP:

Vivanth went for his workout, hoping to clear his mind. After an intense hour, he returned to their room, feeling refreshed. As he entered, he found Arushi busy packing her laptop and carefully placing some design papers into her bag.

(EPISODE 23)

Vivanth headed towards the washroom to freshen up, while Arushi finished packing her bag. Once she was done, she grabbed her things and made her way downstairs. As she walked into the kitchen, she noticed that breakfast had already been prepared, which brought a small smile to her face.

Feeling like she wanted to contribute something special, she decided to make prasad for the pooja. After gathering the ingredients, she began preparing kheer, her hands moving skillfully as she mixed everything together.

A few minutes later, Arushi completed the kheer, satisfied with the result. Holding the bowl of prasad carefully in her hands, she walked towards the pooja mandir, where she found Neena and Malini busy decorating the idols with fresh flowers.

As Arushi approached Neena and Malini with the bowl of kheer in her hands, the memory of the morning's incident flashed through her mind, and a wave of embarrassment washed over her

As Arushi approached Neena and Malini with the bowl of kheer in her hands, the memory of the morning's incident flashed through her mind, and a wave of embarrassment washed over her. She bit her lip, feeling her cheeks warm up as she remembered how they had seen her and Vivanth on the swing.

Both Neena and Malini were busy decorating the mandir with flowers, but Arushi couldn't help but feel as though they might still be thinking about what had happened earlier. Still, she tried to push those thoughts aside. Taking a deep breath, she quietly joined them, offering the prasad with a calm smile, hoping to hide her embarrassment.

Neena glanced at her, her eyes twinkling with a soft, knowing smile, but she said nothing about the morning. Instead, she simply nodded in approval at the kheer. Malini, too, gave a gentle smile as they continued the pooja preparations. Though Arushi felt a little self-conscious, the peaceful atmosphere around the mandir gradually helped her relax.

"Aru beta," Neena called out gently, her voice filled with warmth. Arushi, who was still feeling nervous and a bit awkward, responded quickly, "Ji maa?" Her tone carried a hint of hesitation as she glanced towards Neena, unsure of how to face her after the morning incident.

Neena noticed Arushi's discomfort and smiled softly, walking towards her. "Beta, you don't need to feel shy or embarrassed," she began, her tone reassuring. "I understand it's all new to you, adjusting to this phase of life. But you shouldn't worry about what happened. We're all so happy for you and Vivanth. It's wonderful to see the two of you getting closer."

Arushi lowered her eyes, still unsure of how to react, but Neena gently placed a hand on her shoulder, making her look up. "Do you know how long I've been praying for this? I've always wanted to see Vivanth settle down with someone who loves him, and now, finally, my prayers have been answered. So don't be shy, beta. This is your home, and we are your family. Seeing the two of you happy makes us all happy."
