"Elvish come sit here with us", Sara's father said. Elvish looked at him hesitantly.

"Come on, Elvish it's been years. Forget it now", Uncle added playfully.

Elvish scratched the back of his head nervously and mumbled "It's still embarrassing".

"Elvish sit down with uncle. Come on.", Abhishek said trying to stifle his chuckle. Elvish glared at him, took a cushion from the sofa, and threw it at Abhishek. Abhishek caught it and let out a chuckle, most of them who were aware of the situation joined him as well.

Manisha was confused. She looked at Abhishek with a baffled expression.

"Later", Abhishek mouthed the word.

"Bhabi come here", vardaan called her and she went towards him.

"Abhishek how are you beta? ", Sara's mother asked.

"I'm very well",

"We meet Afsa and Manisha frequently, I acquire from her about your well-being",

"Manisha and Afsa?", He said wriggled eyebrows.

"Yeah", Aunty studied his expression. "You don't know about it?".

Abhishek shook his head.

"Oh!... Manisha pays frequent visits to our home with Afsa", Abhishek's eyes shot open.

"Just because of Manisha's insistence we decided to stay back in India. She made us realize that Afsa needs our presence. My heart is at peace now that both you and Afsa are in good hands. And I'm so proud of you that you take care of her. I keep asking her about you and she says that you are a perfect husband.", Aunty smiled. He paused a moment for her words to sink in.

"She didn't tell me this", He stated and moved his gaze towards her. She was standing at the other end of the living area with Nischay, vardaan and Elvish.

"Next time you have to come with them",

"Sure Aunty".

Prerna and Meher were standing at a table that was richly filled with various snacks." Meher I think you should check out this one as well", Prerna said stuffing patties into her mouth.

Meher looked down at her plate which was already overfilled with different items. "Let me finish these first, there are many things to eat oh god I don't know from where to start".

"We will ask dadi to get some packed for us, she is a sweetheart you know", Prerna replied. They continued stuffing their mouths oblivious to their surroundings.

"Like seriously", Elvish shook his head in disbelief." It seems like we have starved them".

"Patah nahi jata kaha hai yeh itna khana", vardaan said looking at their lean figures.

"Let them eat peacefully if it makes them happy", Manisha said in their defense.

"Nischay bring a chair for me", Dad called out.

Nischay nodded his head and looked around. He picked up the chair which was placed behind Prerna as she was standing.

"You are staying here", Nischay asked Manisha as he joined them back.

"Yeah I a...",

"AHHHHH", Prerna screamed. Everyone quickly shifted their eyes towards her. Prerna was lying on the floor, with the snacks scattered on the floor around her.

Meher gasped, she quickly sat down on the floor beside Prerna." How did you fall down?".

"Who took the damn chair", Prerna yelled. Oh! so apparently she was sitting down on the chair which was no more present there and fell on the floor.
