Ankit was happy. He felt relieved because his best friend, his sister, and Pri's mom and dad who were parental figures had forgiven him and given him a chance to make things right. Half the burden had lifted from his heart. Now, he needed to talk with Priyanka; her emotions and feelings were the most important to him.

Coming out of the study room, he saw everyone busy with their work. He moved upstairs to Pri's room and stood in front of the door, taking a deep breath. Slowly, he opened the door, and the sight before him warmed his heart: Pri was sleeping in the middle of the bed, holding the two little munchkins securely as they hugged and snuggled close to her. He quickly snapped a picture with a smile.

He walked toward the bed and kissed Ansh and then Nidhi. As he turned to Pri, he noticed a frown on her forehead, with strands of hair covering her face. He gently traced his fingers along her hair, sliding it aside. Then he bent down and gave her a long peck on the forehead, making her frown disappear.

"I love you, my sunshine. I really love you." He said and a lone tear dropped onto her face. He quickly stood up to leave the room, glancing back at Pri once before stepping out.

As soon as the door closed, Pri opened her glossy eyes and touched her forehead, feeling the wetness of Ankit's tear. A smile formed on her face as she remembered his kiss and confession.

During lunch, Pri was feeding Ansh and Nidhi. Ankit smiled as he watched her. Maan, who had been observing Ankit, elbowed him and winked, making Ankit roll his eyes with a small smile. Armaan felt happy for Ankit, he was finally getting what he deserved.

Ansh was loving all the pampering he received from Pri's family. He had never experienced this before. Until now, he had only had his dad and uncle in his life, but seeing so many people and their love made Ansh feel on cloud nine. He liked the feeling of having such a large, caring family.

"Ansh, bacha, how's the food?" Pri's mom asked, caressing his hair. Ansh looked at her and said, "It's so yummy," making her chuckle.

"Pari, where are your sooo special cupcakes you made for Ansh? Oh, here it is," Arjun said with teasing smile. Ankit looked at Pri in surprise that she had cooked for Ansh. Ansh's eyes shone even brighter at the thought of his mumma cooking for him.

"Yay! Mumma, did you cook for me?" Ansh asked excitedly, eyeing the pancakes. Pri glared at her brother and pouted because the pancakes she made didn't turn out well. Arjun laughed.

"Ansh, actually, they're not good. I'll cook for you some other time," Pri said, making Ankit chuckle. Hearing his chuckle, Pri glared at him and turned her face away, making Ankit look at her amusingly.

Nidhi giggled, knowing her bui's cooking talent. Pri gave her a mock glare, which only made Nidhi giggle more and prompted everyone to laugh. Pri smiled, happy to see everyone enjoying themselves.

But soon, everything went silent. Pri looked around to find out why it had become quiet. She glanced beside her and was stunned to see Ansh eating the cupcakes with a smile; he was truly enjoying them.

"Ansh, no, they're not tasty, baby. I'll buy you some delicious cupcakes; just leave these," Pri said. They were edible, just okay, but not very good or yummy.

"No, Mumma! They're so yummy, and you made them for me for the first time. I want to eat all of them. I won't give one to anyone," Ansh said, stunning everyone. Pri felt emotional hearing Ansh's cute, innocent, love-filled words. She hugged him and peppered his face with kisses, making him giggle. Ankit smiled, watching the bond between Pri and Ansh. All the family members adored their sweet connection.
