Abhi asked his mother: Did you said anything to her?
Abhi's mother smiled in response.
A: It means you definitely told something. But I know whatever you tell had changed her mind about us.
Abhi's mother "I don't know it changed her mind about us but I can assure you that it definitely changed her mind about you."
A: Ma.... It's just a matter of time for her to believe us.
Abhi's mother "I hope so...."
A: Okay Ma. I will go and talk to her now. I need to know what's running in her mind.
Abhi's mother "Don't get me wrong Abhi but right now you need to leave her alone. She herself needs to decide about us."
A: Oh... Okay....
He replied in a low tone and understanding him his mother said: Just let her be alone for today. I have a feeling after today she herself will come after you.
Abhi in an excited tone: Really?
Abhi's mother" Yes but remember to keep your excitement after marriage. You are still not her husband yet."
A: Ma! I am not excited! Don't assume things!
He said and walked away to hide his excitement.
Meanwhile, Pragya was in her own thoughts when Aarav came looking for her.
P: Hey Aarav! Sit beside me.
Aarav smiles and sat beside her.
Aarav then says "Thank you!"
Pragya was surprised to hear it from him all of a sudden.
P: Why is this thank you for?
Aarav "I love you Mummy! I love Daddy!"
Pragya understands his feelings now. He is thanking her as he is loving her as his mum and Abhi as his dad.
P: We love you too Aarav!
Aarav hugs her and Pragya realized how she used the word We instead of I.
Strange! Now I started to feel Abhi and me are one.
She smiled widely in response and was wondering what she could do to tell how she feels now to Abhi.
Later that day, she was unable to find Abhi anywhere around.
All she was able to find was his mother who asked her to not to worry as Abhi had an important business meeting to attend.
Why did he need to attend a meeting now? I really wanted to talk to him today.
She thought helplessly waiting for his arrival. Looking at her restlessness to see Abhi, his mother could only feel happy.
He was still not back at home! Damn! It means I have to wait for him until next day when I will be busy in preparations for his surprise!
