Later that night, Pragya was restless thinking that Abhi might be in love with someone. She knew her feelings for him were more than just some silly crush and perhaps she might be in love with him.

Pragya got tears in her eyes

"I fell in love with Abhi?" she asked herself.

She felt so happy after realizing her love.  She jumped like a mad person in her room, but then suddenly reality came back to her.

What if Abhi is in love with some other girl?

Pragya couldn't control herself and she started crying at the thought of Abhi loving another girl.

Pragya's mother, Sarla, then called her to have dinner.

"Pragya, it's getting late, Beta. Come have food and then you can study." Her mother said.

Hearing this, Pragya wiped her tears and tried to control her feelings.

"Maa, I am not feeling hungry. I will just have milk. Please Ma." she pleaded.

Hearing Pragya's voice, Sarla felt that something was wrong and she went into Pragya's room. She saw Pragya on the bed crying silently.

"Pragya Beta, what happened? Why are you crying?" Her mother asked. "Did you fight with Abhi again?"

"No Maa, it's nothing like that.we didn't fight, even he I'll come to home tomorrow ma, u can ask na, Just a headache."

"Are you sure it's just a headache?"

"Haa Maa." she said to her mother.

"Ok then, I will bring milk for you. You just take rest." Sarla  said and then left.

Next day

The next day,
Maa prepare kheer also , abhi likes that na so"
Sarla " ok , ok"....Sarla had just finished preparing kheer. It was Abhi's favourite.

Aftera while, Abhi came with Tanu and her parents.

Sarla " abhi beta , how are you and ? Raman ji and sandya ji aap?  How are you all ? pragya didnit inform me?   Anyway you all remember me atlest now ?"
Sandya ( tanu mother ) " arey sarlaji at least we remember you all now but you are forgot us na" said with smile
Sarla " arey , nothing like that ji , come and sit I ill make snacks for u all"
Raguveer( prgya father) " namaste sandyaji , namaste raman ji , how are you ?

Abhi " arey first will you all settle here ? Then we will discuss, what say uncle aunty ?
Sarla " ha, ha , sure abhi , I think you planning something big that's why you doing all na? Naughty boy ?" teases sarla

Pragya's father, Raghuveer, lead them over to the living room where they all sat down, while Sarla went to get snacks and they all chatted.

After a while Tanu's father, Raman, cleared his throat.

"Actually, we  came here to discuss an important matter." Tanu's father said.

"Anything serious?" Raghuveer asked.

"It depends on your decision." Raman said.

"Meaning?" Raghuveer asked.

Pragya was getting nervous.

What could they possibly want to talk about?  Why isn't Abhi talking to me? He is behaving really differently. Why did he bring Tanu's parents here? it was just supposed to be him and Tanu coming over.

Abhi stood from his seat and went  near Pragya's parents. He kneeled down in front of them which puzzled both her parents.

"Aunty, Uncle... I have something to say. Actually, I need to ask your permission for something.  I will abide by any decision you take." said Abhi in an emotional tone.
