Daya P.O.V.:

The Vadhera family sat with us arguing over the theme of Adi's bedroom.

"Let's have the cars theme" Said Priyanka.

"Let's get the room made in the superhero theme." Suggested Dushu.

"Let's get it done in the Thomas and his friends theme." Said Mom.

"No ! All your ideas are super boring. Let's get his room in the Doraemon theme." Shouted Divya.

"That's boring too. Let's get the power rangers theme put up." Said Muskaan.

All the while, Adi sat in Pari's lap staring at everyone. Adi is closer to Pari more than to me and I'm not jealous. It's the kind of bond that a son and a mother share. I shared the same bond with Mom more than with Dad. All I'm waiting for is for him to call me Dad. It's selfish for me to think so. That too, this soon. But, I can wait.

Pari said "Guys, keep quite for sometime. It's Adi's room, so he'll decide what he wants."

She looked at Adi and asked him "Baby, what do you want your room to be like ?"

Adi went closer to her and whispered something in her ear. Pari said "Done."

Everyone started shouting and asking her what the theme was. She screamed "Chill out guys. It's a surprise."

I asked her "Surprise for me too ? If you keep the theme from me, who's going to talk with the architect Pari ?"

She answered "Me. Obviously. I can do the talking Nandu. So, it's mine and my baby's little secret ?"

I asked her "Your baby ? Who am I then ? You use to call me baby until a few days ago."

She replied "Now, this baby is my baby." She said pointing at Adi. She continued "You are my Nandu." She said pointing at me. I pouted while everyone laughed. That's what I wanted, everyone to be smiling and laugh again.

I suggested "Guys, let's go for a vacation. It's a really necessary one for all of us."

Dad said "Your right Daya. We should really go on a vacation. Suggestions ?"

Rakesh suggested "We can go to Pondicherry. It's a beautiful place."

Divya said "Yeah. I've been there. It's a picturesque location."

Mom said "Then, Pondicherry it is. Dushu, book the tickets and the resort." Dushu nodded.

She turned to Pari and said "Pari, call the Malhotra family and inform them the plan."

Pari said "No Maa. This os going to be our vacation. I don't want any kind of a problem between Adi and them. God knows what their mindset is now."

Dad said "Shreya.-"

I cut him off and requested him "Dad, please don't force her." We left the matter behind and continued with our other talks.

I leaned towards Pari and whispered "Hey ! Let's go up."

She asked me "Up where?"

I replied "To our room."

She asked me another question "What for ?" Oh my god Pari ! How do I tell you that I want to go up to spend some time and romance you baby.

I answered "To wash the clothes." In s sarcastic tone.

She looked at me confused and asked "But why ? We have a washing machine don't we ?"

I slapped my forehead. She gave me a smirk. She whispered "I do know why you want me to come up. But I'm not going to. You gotta do something that's going to impress me."
