He was put into a very difficult situation. The letter he was supposed to deliver was lying inside his fav black leather jacket. He had come here with one simple task of giving that letter and leaving but it now seemed impossible. Mrs. Chaturvedi had passed away a week ago. He did not know wat to do now or wat to say to the grieving family.
The room he was sitting in was small and old and the stuff in it was very cheap. He now realised that this was y Maa always used to say that Thapki does not belong in PN. Maa was a classy woman who believed in high class stuff. She had not learn to compromise even on small things and this was abt the bahu of her house. Even a small decoration piece in PN was worth Thousands. His thoughts were put to break when the old lady came in the room with a young girl who was dressed in simple clothes. She looked as if she was still crying. The old lady introduced her as Thapki.
Bihaan looked at her face for a second only and then lowered his gaze. He was trying to decide if he should give the letter to her or not. Thapki sat on the small bed. The old lady sat beside her. Bihaan was sitting in a small but very uncomfortable chair (at least to him it seemed very uncomfortable at that moment) lying opposite to the bed.
The old lady started talking. A talk that changed Bihaan's life for ever.
Old Lady: "Poonam was my cousin sister and I am Thapki's bua. Thapki has no one left in her life but me. Her mother Poonam was a cancer patient and her last days were very miserable. Her only worry was Thapki. She wanted her married in her life. That is y she..."
The old lady stopped talking as she heard Thapki's cries. She hugged and asked her not to cry. Bihaan was feeling very uneasy. He wanted to get and run away from this place. This whole scene was very depressing.
Old Lady again began.
Old lady: "I am Thapki's only family and Poonam has told me abt u. She knew u will come to fulfil Balvinder's promise. Balvinder is a man of his words. He sent u and that too when we needed u the most"
Bihaan did not understand wat this lady was saying. Wat has Poonam Aunty told her abt him. He did not say a word but tried to figure out the situation.
Old Lady: "Now u must do the needful and take Thapki with u"
The knock at the cabin door brought Bihaan back in the present. He looked at the door. The peon told him that the office is abt to get closed. Bihaan looked at the Wall clock. It was 10 pm. He quickly shut his computer and left for the home.

Thapki was sitting in Thahaan's room with her bag of clothes on her bed. Suman Bhabhi was sitting next to her. The bag had very few clothes and that too very old and shabby.
Suman Bhabhi: "Thapki u must buy new clothes. I will go to the market with u and we will do some shopping"
