"mei changi aa , tusi kevi ho [I am fine , how are you ?] " khushi asked her daima , her only mother from since birth , though she didn't gave birth to her but she has been a pillar of strength for khushi . she has at first tried to make her calm and understanding like her other sisters but at last had accepted her defeat at the hands of rebellious khushi , who wanted to do things her own way , never to fall weak in front of anyone . she has helped khushi attaining a education that hold in front of world not something that confides to door room of princess .

"mei vi chagi aa, gharala kivi aa tera ?[ I am fine , how is your husband ] " khushi knew dai ma's this question is much more than just asking about health . she is also sure that her sisters will be surrounding dai ma , trying to hear what she is going to answer . she will be damned if she didn't have a fun at their expense. she cleared her throat and waved her arms to indicate the servants to leave her alone that were hovering around here since the time , her husband had let her here to use the phone to call her loved ones , her husband the name make her turn red in shyness .

"hun ki puchna, jado oo harjee manu chuk k le gya . tab to ni pucha tusi . ibb ki faida jad chudiya chuk k khet [you should have asked this when he had come to take me .you didn't ask then so what's the use of asking now , when bird has eaten all the seeds ] as khushi expected various number of gasp could be heard from the other end ,khushi tried to control her laugh . her last statement was a code word that they sister use to indicate that they had consummated their marriage or they might be pregnant . this code word had its origin at the time when her eldest sister had come back after few months spend at her in laws, she use to remain busy in her thoughts all day while blushing , smiling all the time , when they have asked her about it , the only way she explained is through these words . khushi was very young at the time but now her marriage has been fixed her sister have been open about it to the extend they can . she remember words of di ' don't get scared ok . it will pain a little everything will be fine , let you husband guide . don't misjudge his action and don't put a sword through his chest ' last one was big warning though she did not have a idea what husband and wife do or how baby comes in this world but she was sure now that she can leave all that to her husband and trust him like di said . she do know about kiss because quite shamelessly her sister and her husband would make out in their family library which was like second home to khushi , this had lead to awkward dialogues and increased fantasy in her mind which she hated .

"abb ki ? , mere nayne de jape ich aa jana tuse .[ now what , just make sure to come see and help me with my baby ]" khushi continued trying to sound sad and hurt . they all knew that she had huge dreams and marrying and giving birth to a child this early was not one of them . that's why her this declaration has probably made them feel sad especially dai ma who have big hand on bringing khushi back to the mandap . khushi still remembers it even after two months of marriage she still feels like it was yesterday .

"dai ma , please don't force me to go back , I can't . how I will prove my worth to people here , how would I be able to hold the crown of Lahore ."
