Deep picked up his luggage and moved, Vineet looked on. He sighed and picked up his bag which was quite heavy.

As soon as he reached the flat he saw Tara talking over the phone "Haan yaar gayi thi apne sasural are wo papaji retire ho gaye hai na to rehne ke koi thikana nhi hai isliye apne saath laana pada unhe"

He looked on, just then the little voice attracted his attention "senior"

He looked down and it was Ansh. He smiled at him "yes junior"

"aap mere saath mere kamre mein rehna chalo aapko apna room dikhata hun main" Ansh said while holding his hand.

Vineet smiled "Chalo"

They moved into his home, Ansh said "aap apna saman yahan rakho junior ke paas"

Vineet nodded in yes. He opened up his bag and starts arranging things, Ansh's eyes fell on something and he asked "ye kya hai?"

Vineet took it out and kept it on table "yeh typewriter hai tumhari dadi ne mujhe diya tha kaha ki jab kabhi mujhse door jaana ho to chitti likha karna" he said.

"itne saalo mein kabhi zaroorat hi nhi padi iski par ab padegi" he said with his moist eyes.

Ansh smiled and said "wovy aap dadi ko chitthi likhoge Ansh bhi likhega jab bada ho jayega"

Vineet pulled him and made him sit on his lap "nahi beta aapko aisa din na dekhna pade kabhi. acha aap jaake khelo ab"

Ansh nodded and gets down. He ran out of the room. Vineet took out Ruhana's picture and looked at it. He smiled lightly "ab toh kuch mahine isse hi kaam chalana padega" he then kept it on side table of the bed.

Galaxy Apartments, Mahesh and Mithi reached home along with mishti and Ruhana.

The maid opened the door, mithi smiled "sab thik hai na shanta kaki?"

The maid nodded, Mahesh said "aao maa"

"shanta kaki maa ka saman mishti ke room mein rakhdo" Mithi said.

Just then mishti spoke up "no mom main apna room kisike saath share nhi kar sakti hun"

Mithi looked at her and said "mishti dadi hai"

"mom please mujhe apni privacy chahiye" mishti replied. She then looked at Ruhana "sorry dadi I hope you don't mind" and left to her room.

Mithi sighed, she then looked at shanta kaki "Maa ka saman apne room mein rakhdo"

She was shocked "mere kamre mein?"

"Haan tum kitchen mein bhi so sakti ho" Mithi said.

She moved and kept the bags into the room. Ruhana moved in and sighed. She took out the things and picked up Vineet's picture. She caressed it " Yeh 6 mahine bahut mushkil honge Vineet. Na jaane ye din kaise guzrenge tumhare bina?"

She  kept the picture on the side table and settled her things in the almirah. She then sat on the bed. Tears trickled down her eyes, for she wasn't used to stay away from her husband and now she had to stay away.

Meanwhile, the maid came in and kept a cup of tea on the table. Ruhana smiled lightly and thanked her. She picked up the cup and took a sip, but kept the cup back. She looked on at Vineet's photograph...

"tumhare bina toh chai bhi raas nahi aa rahi. Kaise beetenge yeh 6 mahine? Kisi aur pe vishwas karne ka nateeja hai yeh. " she said,hugged the picture and rested her head on the backrest.

Aarav and Manvi arrived at the flat. He unlocked the door and were about to moved in but Aarav stopped her "ruko"

Manvi looked at him in confusion "kyun?"

"bas 5 minute" he said and moved in. Manvi was standing out and looking what he is upto.

He comes back with some things, he placed the glass filled with rice on the floor.

He then looked at her "wo ye maa ne kaha tha grah pravesh karwana baki jab hum India jayenge to maa karengi"

Manvi smiled broadly, she lightly kicks the glass and then entered inside.

They moved into the bedroom. Aarav said "Manvi tum change karlo main tabtak ghar phone karke aata hun"

Manvi nodded, Aarav moved out of the room. He picked up his phone and dialed home number. The phone was ringing but none was picking up the call. He was surprised, he again called and none picked up.

"Maa papa koi phone kyun nhi utha raha?" he was tensed.

Manvi came out of the room and asked him "kya hua Aarav?"

Aarav turned to her and said "ghar pe koi phone nhi utha raha"

Manvi said "tumne kaha tha na ghar mein sab aaye hue hai ho sakta hai ghumne gaye ho kuch der baad try kar lena"

Aarav looked on and said "Haan ho sakta hai"

Manvi pats his cheek "chinta mat karo Aarav tumhare maa papa thik honge"

Aarav nodded. He asked "Acha Manvi tumhe khana banana aata hai?"

Manvi denies "nahi aata na"

"toh main tumhe India leke nhi jaunga" he said making face.

Manvi was shocked "Haww kyun?"

"Maa papa kya sochenge? Unke bete ne aisi ladki se shaadi ki jisko khana banana nhi aata" Aarav complained.

Manvi gets sad, Aarav smiled lightly and hugged her from behind closing her into his arms.

"chinta mat karo main tumhe sikha dunga" He said hugging her.

Manvi smiled "tum na Aarav bahut satate ho mujhe main maa se complaint karungi tumhari aur wo kaan kheechengi tumhare"

Aarav nodded with a smile"kar lena Mrs. Manvi Raichand"

Manvi turned to him and said "lekin abhi bahut bhook lagi hai mujhe"

"okay tum baitho main kuch banake laata hun" Aarav said and moved to the kitchen.

Manvi smiled and thought "ab to mujhe bhi jaldi jaana hai unse milne jinhone mujhe itna pyara insan diya"

After 30 minutes Aarav returned with the food, Manvi looked and was surprised "tumne itni jaldi bana liye"

"Haan Chalo ab khao tareef baad mein karna" Aarav said.

Manvi nodded and tasted the food. She smiled "it is delicious Aarav"

Aarav again picked up the phone and called home but there was no response. He sighed and then called Anoop.

Anoop picked up the call "hello"

"namaste chachaji main Aarav US se" Aarav said.

Anoop smiled "Aarav beta kaise ho?"

"jee main thik hun wo chachaji ghar pe koi phone nhi utha raha maa papa thik to hai na?" he asked.

The smile vanished from Anoop's face. He thought "ise batau ya nhi.. Nahi rehne deta hun Vineet ne mana kiya tha"

He lied "Haan beta wo dono thik hai darasal kuch dino ke liye wo dono mahesh ke ghar rehne gaye hai bahut zidd kar raha tha wo"

Aarav smiled and said "chachaji mujhe to tension hi ho gayi thi jab wapas aaye to unse kahiyega mujhe call kare chaliye main hi kar lunga kuch dino baad namaste rakhta hun"

And ended the call.

Anoop sighed and said "ek yeh hai jo paraya hoke fikar karta hai aur ek uske apne bete hai.."

Manvi looked at Aarav and said "ab toh khalo"

Aarav nodded and eats the food unaware of the truth.
