Understanding the meaning of Love with MaAn

Exploring Resort or Each other??

Precap: "Kyuki meri Anu ke saamne... yeh patake tuss hojathe hai..." he teased, chuckling when she gasped and swatted his arm.

Their laughter blended with the festive sounds around them, as their love shined brighter than any Diwali light.

Anupamaa gently ran her fingers over the soft fabric of the saree, admiring the intricate embroidery. A warm smile lit up her face as she turned to her mother, Kanta Maa.

"Maa... Yeh saadi bohot achchi hai jo aapne pasand ki... Bilkul aap par jachne wali hai," she said, her voice brimming with affection. "Pack kijiye... Jab aap pehnenge na, bilkul cutie lagengi aap!" she teased before wrapping her arms around her mother in a tight hug.

Kanta Maa chuckled, shaking her head at Anupamaa's antics. "Haan Anu, iss baar ache wale liye hai... Kal ki shopping bohot mazedaar thi na?" she reminisced, her eyes twinkling with joy. She then pulled out a few more outfits, showing them to Anupamaa. "Yeh dekho... Yeh Anuj ne mere liye pasand ki hai... Yeh Pakhi ne, aur yeh Samar ne... Kitne pyaare hai na?"

Anupamaa carefully examined each outfit, nodding in appreciation. "Bohot sundar hai Maa... Sabke chune hue kapde itne pyaare lag rahe hai. Tum bas khush rehna... Aur is baar meri shaadi mein sirf enjoy karna, koi kaam nahi karna!" she said with a determined tone, as if setting a rule.

Kanta Maa laughed, patting Anupamaa's cheek affectionately. "Theek hai, theek hai... Bas, mere hone wale damaad bhi bohot acche hai," she added playfully, winking at her daughter.

Anupamaa gasped, dramatically covering her face. "Maa!! Kyaa? Pehle unko damaad bolna band karo... Beta hai aapke... Fir mujhe daant padti hai," she mock complained, shaking her head with a small smile.

Kanta Maa sighed. "Haan haan, beta toh hai... Chalo, ab batao, packing puri ho gayi? Subha nikalna hai na?"

"Haan Maa, sab tayyar hai... Ek bada bag hai jisme kapde rakhe hai, lekin functions ke outfits alag hai... Woh sab Devika dekh rahi hai," Anupamaa explained. "Bas ek chhota bag bacha hai, usme thodi packing reh gayi hai... Abhi kar lungi." She glanced at the clock and frowned. "Bachche bhi aane wale hai... 9 baj gaye, ab tak nahi aaye... Kahan reh gaye?"

Kanta Maa smiled knowingly. "Sabhi aayenge... Lekin Anurag aur Anargya ko bhi bula leti toh aur maza aata!"

"Bulaaya tha Maa... Par woh dono resort pehle ja rahe hai... Sab tayyariyan karni hai na," Anupamaa said.

Kanta Maa nodded. "Achha, toh sab manage ho jaayega?"

Anupamaa smiled warmly. "Haan Maa, sab ho jaayega..."

Just then, the sound of tiny running footsteps echoed in the room, and before Anupamaa could turn around, she felt a small pair of arms wrap around her waist.

"Mummy!!" a sweet voice squealed.

Anupamaa turned with a bright smile and saw her ten-year-old daughter, Pakhi, grinning up at her.

"Maari sweetudi!" Anupamaa cooed, pinching Pakhi's chubby cheeks before planting soft kisses on them. "Kya hua? Bohot excited lag rahi hai?"

Pakhi beamed proudly. "Mummy! Mera saara packing ho gaya hai! Sab kuch ready hai!"

Anupamaa's gaze fell on the two stuffed suitcases behind Pakhi, and she raised an amused eyebrow. "Yeh kya? Do suitcases? Itna samaan?"

Pakhi rolled her eyes dramatically. "Mummy! Sirf mera nahi hai! Kinju bhabhi ka bhi saman hai!"

"Achha!" Anupamaa chuckled.

Toshu, who had just entered, groaned loudly. "Haan Mummy! Isne pareshaan karke rakha! Yeh bhi chahiye, woh bhi chahiye... Ruk hi nahi rahi thi!"
