Neil came home excited that evening. He had good news to share with his family. But the first person he wanted to tell was avni. Avni wasn't back home and bebe and shweta could make out that he was very excited

Bebe- kya baat hai tillu? Bada khush lag raha hai

Neil- kuch nahi bebe...aisa toh kuch nahi hai he said but unable to keep the excitement and anticipation out of his voice

Shweta- kuch baat toh zarur hai! Apni maa ko bhi nahi batayega tillu?

Just then avni walked in and greeted everybody.

The minute he saw her, neil's smile grew. HE wanted to pull her to their room and spill the beans immediately but he contained himself till she freshened up.

So as avni walked up to their room, neil also quickly excused himself and followed her. She had gone to use the bathroom and neil was pacing in the room waiting for her to come out

A very LONG 15 minutes later when avni walked out, neel immediately pulled her to the bed and made her sit down

Avni- kya hua neel? You look like you're on the edge...whats up?

Neel- I have some news

Avni- ok she said giving him her full undivided attention

Neel handed her an envelope

Avni opened it, took out a letter and quickly scanned its contents and as she read it he could see her smile grow and when she looked up at him she straight away pulled him into a hug and said-

Neel, congratulations!!! I'm so so happy for you! and she rained down loud kisses on his face in her excitement!

She let go of him for a moment, just looked into his eyes and then hugged him once more with another squeal- I'm so proud of you! I'm now the wife of Mr.DCP!

Neel chuckled at her enthusiasm. He was happy about his promotion but seeing avni's reaction and sharing this good news with her had made this even more memorable for him. Success always tasted sweet but it was sweeter with avni by his side to share the news with. He felt a greater sense of accomplishment because this news made her happy and proud!

Avni- ghar main sabko bataya? This is HUGE! We need to celebrate! Main neelama ko phone karti hoon...she'll be so happy to hear this! She rattled off

Neil-relax wifey...take a breath!

Avni just beamed at him and held one of his hands in her own and placed a kiss on it.

Neel was on cloud nine too!

Avni- accha chalo, lets tell mom, dad and bebe. Aaj toh kaafi melodrama hoga she said with a wink at him.

Haan chalo. And just as neil and her were about to exit the room, avni said- wait wait wait. Tum chalo. Main 2 minute main aayi. Just call everyone but wait for me also. I wanna be there when you tell them

Neil- tum bhi saath chalo na.

Avni- neel don't argue, just listen to me. Go down. I'm coming in 2

So neil went down and called out for his parents and bebe and they were all waiting around in the dining room when he heard avni also come down the stairs

Neil- I have some good news- he announced. I have been promoted to the rank of DCP!

Bebe, shweta also jumped in joy.

Bebe was immediately thanking every god aloud and shweta was in tears. Prakash ji had given him a hug and clap on the back

Bebe gave him a hug and said puttar, tu aise hi aage aur bahut tarakki kar she blessed him and quickly made her way to light the diya and do a quick pooja
