The morning of the engagement arrived, and everyone gathered for breakfast. The room was filled with laughter and excitement as the day began.
Purvi looked at Siya with a kind smile. "Siya, how are you feeling now that the big day is so close?" Siya, caught off guard, replied quickly, "I've always dreamed of this."
Abhimanyu paused mid-bite, glancing at her with curiosity. Realizing what she had said, Siya blushed and added, "I mean, I've always imagined how special all the attention would feel. And it's exactly like I thought!" Abhimanyu smiled slightly and nodded, his curiosity fading.
Meanwhile, Aarti turned to Tanya, her tone playful. "Tanya, what about you? Is there anyone special in your life?" Tanya, surprised, nearly choked on her dosa. "No, Aarti Kaki," she laughed nervously. "I'm not even thinking about marriage right now. Not until I meet the right person."
From across the table, Tanya could feel Rajveer's eyes on her, but she avoided looking at him.
"You look so lovely, especially in sarees. Any guy would fall for you," Aarti added with a smile.
Tanya blushed, unsure how to respond. Aarti continued, "I have a nephew who's just a little older than you. Would you like to meet him? I could set up a blind date."
Purvi joined in teasingly. "Oh, that sounds like a great idea! What do you think, Tanya?"
Tanya hesitated, feeling unsure but not wanting to upset Aarti. "Uh... sure, Aarti Kaki," she said, forcing a smile. "I'll go on the blind date."
Across the table, Rajveer, calmly eating his medu vada, suddenly choked, his eyes wide. He quickly drank some water, glancing at Tanya with surprise and irritation.
Instead of saying anything, he decided to tease her. He slid his foot under the table, brushing it lightly against Tanya's. She stiffened, her eyes darting toward him before looking back at her plate.
Rajveer smirked and tickled her foot again. Tanya's cheeks turned pink, but she kept her eyes on her food, trying to ignore him.
Finally, Rajveer leaned back, satisfied. Tanya sneaked a glance at him and caught the mischievous look in his eyes. Her heart raced as she scolded herself silently for letting him affect her so much.

The families gathered in the living room, Virajas leaned forward and asked Siya, "Betu, tell us about your wedding dress. What did you pick?" Siya smiled, her eyes sparkling. "It's a special lehenga. I want it to be a surprise on the wedding day. But I'll tell you—it's from Sabyasachi."
Karan, curious, added, "Sabyasachi? Siya, weren't you planning to join them? When's the interview?" Siya nodded seriously. "Yes, I am. I'll give the interview a week after the wedding." Aarti smiled at her. "That's amazing, Siya. You'll do great."
