Two hours later
Divya and Abhishek were alone at home, as the older couple had taken Diya to a park. It had been a difficult task convincing her that her father won't disappear by the time she would return. Alone in the house, the couple could not decide how they should pass their time.
"I guess we should just sleep," declared Abhishek. Divya gave a sarcastic laugh and said, "Wow! What a productive way to spend your time. Let's plat some game."
Abhishek laughed, "Which one? Icepice?" As soon as the words left his mouth, Divya started laughing like a maniac, "It's 'I spy'...." She continued laughing for another five minutes while Abhishek looked at her, mesmerized. Suddenly, Divya became conscious of the fact and her cheeks turned into a light shade of pink.
Abhishek looked at her blush and quickly averted his gaze from her, thinking happily, "Oh! She looks so beautiful when she blushes. And I am the reason of her blush."
Suddenly Divya spoke excitedly, "Let's play Ludo." Abhishek chuckled and took out the board game. They sat on the floor in the living room, keeping the board between them and started playing.
Ten minutes into the game and Abhishek was losing. He got irritated and spoiled the game. "Hey, that is cheating," said Divya. Abhishek showed her his tongue and soon he was being chased by Divya all over the house.
Half an hour later
The couple were sitting on the sofa, panting hard due the chasing game. They were relaxing and wondering what they could do next.
Divya suddenly exclaied, "Let's cook. Non-veg." Abhishek looked at her and then said, "Make a list of the things you want. And make sure my daughter can also eat it."
Divya faked anger and said, "She is also my daughter, Mr. Srivastava." Abhishek looked at her intensely and said, "I know, Mrs. Srivastava." He winked, making Divya blush again.
"Have I told you that you are very beautiful?" asked Abhishek. Divya laughed, "Have I told you that you are not handsome?" Though the comment hurt him, Abhishek laughed along.
Soon, the needed ingredients were arranged and the couple began cooking. Well, it was Divya who was cooking, while Abhishek kept on troubling and irritating her.
"What is your problem?" asked an irritated Divya. Abhishek made a grumpy face and said, "Say that I am handsome." Divya started laughing, "Oh my God!....You are....still stuck on...on that." Abhishek narrowed his eyes and Divya said, "Okay. Fine. You are handsome. Happy?" Abhishek smiled and the couple resumed cooking.
Two Hours Later
Vinay and Swati returned with Diya to be greeted by smell of delicious food. They looked at the young couple and smiled. However, Diya ran to her father, who picked her up and kissed her cheek. Divya smiled and then said to her in-laws, "I will set the table." They nodded and soon the family was sitting around the dining table, eating delicious food.
Divya was feeding small and soft bites to Diya, who was very excited for some reason. As soon as, the lunch got over, she said to her mother, "Mumma, my birthday is coming and I have got the best gift." Saying so, she pointed at Abhishek, who smiled and tickled her.
But Divya was haunted by the same thought again....what will happen when Diya's knows the truth....
