Rm,

It was a bright, lively morning at the Rajput Mansion as Arya and Hrihaan prepared to leave for Mumbai. The house buzzed with activity, with everyone offering last-minute advice and packing essentials.

Aakriti:- Aarushi bindni  jaldi in dono ke liye sukha nashta le aa safar mai kaam aavega.

(Aarushi, quickly bring some dry snacks for them. It will be useful for the journey.)

In the kitchen, the rhythmic clanging of utensils echoed as Aakriti called out, her voice sharp but laced with care,The scent of roasted cumin and coriander filled the air as Aarushi quickly gathered snacks crisp, spiced khakras and sweet mathris perfect for a long journey.

Aarushi, ever dutiful.

Aarushi:- Ji maasa.

( Yes,maasa.)

In the living room, Akansha watched Hrihaan and Arya with a worried smile. The gentle rustling of the poshak dupatta accompanied her steps as she approached them.

Akansha:- Hrihaan,Arya,ek susre ka dhyan rakhna anjan shehar mai ja rahe ho.

(Hrihaan,Aryatake care of each other and yourself. You're going to a new city.)

she reminded, her eyes full of motherly concern,Hrihaan smiled, his deep voice reassuring.

Hrihaan:- Ji maasa aap hamari fikar koni karo.

(Yes, Maasa. Don't worry about us.)

Pranay's booming voice echoed from the hallway,

Pranay:- Jaldi karo flight miss ho javega.

(Hurry up or you'll miss your flight.)

The urgency in his tone was a sharp contrast to the calm morning.

Aakriti:- Ji bhaisa.

( Yes,bhaisa.)

After a round of touching feet and exchanging warm smiles, Hrihaan and Arya bent down to hug Kiana and Kian. The warmth of the children's embrace softened the moment as Kiana clung to Hrihaan, her soft baby powder scent filling the air.

Kiana:- Kakisa,kakasa aaplod mele liye naye taple aul tocholate lao de na.
(Kakisa,kakasa aaplog mere liye naye kapde aur chocolate lao ge na.)

(Kakisa, Kakasa, will you bring new clothes and chocolates for me?)

Kiana asked, her large eyes sparkling with excitement.Arya, smiling down at her, bent to Kiana's level, brushing a lock of Kiana's hair back.

Arya:- Ha aapke liye aur Kian ke liye dono ke liye layenge.

(Yes, we will bring new clothes and chocolates for you and Kian.)

she promised, her voice soft yet playful.

Kiana, satisfied with the answer, nodded happily and tightened her hug around Hrihaan. As she rested her head on his shoulder, she whispered conspiratorially in his ear,

Kiana:- Kakisa ko palethan nahi talna.
(Kakisa ko pareshan nahi karna.)

(Kakasa, don't trouble Kakisa.)

Hrihaan chuckled softly, shaking his head, and replied with a wink,

Hrihaan:- Bilkul nahi.

(Absolutely not.)

As they departed for the airport, the house slowly settled down, though the anticipation of their trip lingered.

Back in RM, Ashvik approached Pranay with a serious expression.
