Engagement Day:

Krish and Roshni were happy and had packed everything they needed to leave for the venue by noon. Madan and Keshav had received the guest and arranged their stay in the near by hotel to get ready for the engagement.

They reached the hall and checked for all the arrangements like the way Roshni wanted. Archana and Roshni's mother had packed some return gifts for their relatives. Krish informed them that he was taking Roshni to the spa.

When Madan and Keshav returned home Archana informed Madan to water Myra's plants but Keshav let his father to get ready and left to do the work taking the keys from his mother.

When he reached the backyard of Myra's home he frowned to see the dying rose plants. He immediately locked the door and returned to his home calling his mother.

Archana: Keshav, you just left and you are here already ? didn't you water the plants ?

Keshav: When was the last time you watered them ?

Archana: Appa was doing it but now me and Roshni are doing it on alternate days Keshav, also yesterday plants looked different so I thought it would be better we water daily. What   happened ?

Keshav: Plants are dying maa. I don't think they will survive.

Archana: No no no, that can't happen. Myra will feel bad to see them dead. Let me check.

Keshav: No maa, you look after the work here. I will take care of it. No worries.

Archana hummed and Keshav left his home. He reached a nursery and bought new plants most of them all yellow color. He also bought red soil, compost, fertilizers and returned to Myra's home. He discarded the dying plants and mud from the pot and filled with red soil, compost and fertilizer and planted the new ones. He watered them and cleaned the placed before returning home.

He saw Roshni's parents leaving for the party hall and Archana was placing the bags ready for them to leave.

Archana: Keshav, I have got your clothes. Get ready and we shall leave too.

Keshav: Maa, I have planted new plants and from tomorrow, either you or appa do the watering. You get me ?

Archana was quiet for a moment trying to understand his words but hummed though she didn't get his message.

Archana: Don't worry, I will take care and nothing will happen to the plants anymore.

Keshav returned to his room to get ready. They all reached the venue and Krish arrived with Roshni straight from the spa. He had arranged for a stylist to get Roshni ready and she got busy in that.

Roshni's father: Madan, what would you say when people question about getting Krish engaged when Keshav is still unmarried ?

Keshav: Guide them to me and I can answer them. My personal life should be none of their business. I can handle those nosy people so don't worry about me uncle.

Roshni's father: You are my nephew too Keshav. We are worried about you too and we would be happy to see you settled in your life.

Keshav: Uncle few of the guest wanted to meet you.

Roshni's father took the cue to stop the topic and left from there. Keshav was leaving to meet his mother in her room when he heard a voice calling him by name. He turned around and saw Roshni smiling at him.

Roshni: Keshav, will you do me a favour ?

Keshav: What did you call me ?

Roshni: Keshav

Keshav: Krish never call me by name. He always call me as bro and you are of his same age so I prefer you call me brother. I don't like someone younger than me calling by name or nick names. 

Roshni: But you don't stop Myra when she call you whatever she feel. I have heard her calling you ketchup and some times uncle too. Who in the world will call someone handsome as ketchup or uncle ?

Keshav: I won't stop her because she is Myra and she can call me with any name she wanted. 

Roshni: I m your cousin Keshav..

Keshav: I said don't... today is your special day and I don't want to spoil it lashing out on you. I don't even remember talking to you even once.

Roshni: But we will be staying in the same home and we can't avoid each other.

Keshav: We don't have to avoid. I don't compromise on my personal space and I want you to respect it. Call me brother. DOT.

Roshni: Why don't you stop her calling you uncle ?

Keshav: We tease each other and I love when she tease me. It is our business. I will send Krish to do whatever favour you wanted.

Keshav simply turned to leave and Archana who was listening to everything ambled to Roshni. Keshav passed a bag to Archana and carried on to look after the caterers.

Archana: what do you want Roshni ? I will do it for you.

Roshni: Let it be. the humiliation is enough to forget what I wanted. You could have stopped him insulting me aunty.

Archana: Didn't I warn you ? But you and your mother wanted to learn lesson. We are not trying to make you feel bad or exaggerating but I m stating the real fact. That girl entered our lives as 4 year old little girl and has ruled our hearts all these years. You are now our family Roshni and we will love you too. Make your own space in everyone's heart.

Archana pat her cheek and walked back to her room whilst Roshni was holding back her tears of jealousy.

At Ooty:

Myra and Naina woke up late by afternoon after enjoying a movie night. They had lunch and reached a shopping complex to buy gifts for Rakesh and his family. They got know about his children from the driver and bought gifts for them too. Naina kept her occupied in shopping to keep her distracted from the engagement topic and Myra who was well aware of the plans continued with their plans as she herself wanted to stop thinking about the engagement.

By evening they returned home and Vasundra had made a home made face pack and pulled both Myra and Naina and applied it on their face.

Vasundra: When we go to Principal's home both your face will be glowing, thanks to magic of my hand made face pack.

Naina: aunty,  I m not greedy to ask for glow but would be happy if I don't get any rashes.

Myra: Girl, watch out my mom's magic and you will book her as your personal beautician. My mother is the secret of my flawless skin.

Vasundra: My baby, don't worry, I will be your beautician forever.

Naina: What about me ? I was just teasing and this is not the first time I m getting face pack from you aunty.

Vasundra: For you too Naina. Now both of get ready quickly and let us leave for Principal's home. It won't be good if reach at dinner time exactly.

Myra and Naina reached the room removing the cucumber from their eyes and started getting ready helping each other. An hour later they walked out of the room and saw Vasundra ready in a saree. Vasundra stood frozen to see both the girls dressed in a linen saree and matching jewels. They had braided their hair and adorned with the flowers Rajan bought for them. Myra saw Vasundra wasn't moving from her place and panicked holding her hand.

Myra: Maa, what happened ? Are you not feeling well ? Shall we go to the hospital ?

Vasundra: Shut up, I couldn't take my eyes off from both of you. 

Rajan: You look like a goddess dressed up in this saree Myra.

Myra smiled and Vasundra ward of the evil eyes for both girls. They clicked photos and selfies. Naina didn't waste time and posted it on the social media before they left for Rakesh's home.

They reached Rakesh's home within 5 minutes and Rakesh welcomed them with his family and introduced them to everyone. Vasundra passed the gift to Rakesh's mother and Myra gave toys to his children and saree to his wife.

Vasundra: Thank you so much Principal sir. You have done a lot of help for us.

Rakesh: Maa, please call me Rakesh. I m Keshav's friend and if he is your son then I m too.

Vasundra: Oh my god, you are so down to earth person. I will call Keshav and thank him for sending us here. 

Myra and Naina spoke to his wife and the children too started playing with them until the dinner was served.

Back at Chennai, the engagement ceremony started and the priest called for the parents first to do the pooja and later Krish and Roshni were called to the stage. Archana passed the garlands for them to exchange.

Krish looked at the guest even when he knew Myra would not be present. This didn't go unnoticed by Roshni and his parents. Madan called Archana and Roshni's mother to pass the ring and the couple exchanged the rings. They fed sweets to each other and Krish side hugged her. 

Priest: There are 2 auspicious days the next month to conduct the marriage.

Krish: Any day will be ok. What say Roshni ?

Roshni: Lets discuss the marriage later Krish. 

Krish looked at his parents and they hummed returning to look after the guest. Krish and Roshni clicked photos together and few with family and friends.

Roshni's father drove Krish, Roshni and his wife back to home while Keshav, Madan and Archana stayed until all the guest left the venue. Archana was seated watching the photo of Myra, Vasundra had shared her.

Archana: She look so beautiful Madan. Do you know how many times I have visited temple and prayed to have her as our daughter in law ? Why did god deny my wish ? I have never thought bad for anyone or hurt anyone in my life.

Madan: He must have someone special for Myra and its not like the man for Myra is yet to be born. He is born somewhere and will come at the right time. Trust me god might have denied your wish but he will never deny our wish to send someone who will treat her as a queen. He will give her all the happiness in this world.

Archana: Let your words come true. I have no other wish than to see her smile and chirpy like she used to be.

Madan: Now lets get back to Roshni. Why would she refuse to fix the date for marriage ?

Archana: How do I know ? Lets go home and get to know about it.

Madan saw Keshav returning after clearing off the bills and they returned home. Krish was in his room looking at the photos Myra and Naina had posted from their visit to Rakesh's home. It was the first time he was seeing her dressed up in saree and couldn't stop from commenting under post that she looked beautiful.

All the while he was not aware that Roshni was selecting the best photos to post. Myra who was watching TV heard notification and saw Krish had commented to her post. She smiled and replied with a smiley with heart eyes emoji. She was about to place the mobile on the night stand but stopped when she received another notification from Roshni who had posted their engagement photos.

Myra commented " Made for each other. Best wishes on your new beginning of your happily ever after"

She liked all the photos and switched off the mobile going to back to sleep. She didn't want to shed tears when he had started his future with someone he loved. Picking up Naina's mobile she watched the cover songs of the mystery singer and like always she felt peace and continued watching his songs until she fell asleep.

Krish too saw the photos which Naina had posted, he liked the photos and posted them on his social media too. Before he retired to sleep he opened Myra's photo and felt his eyes tearing up.

Krish: Wish you were here Myra. I m missing you a lot. 

The next morning Archana served coffee to everyone except for Keshav who was yet to wake up. Roshni was scrolling through her mobile smiling at the wishes for her engagement. Archana gestured at Madan to start the conversation.

Madan: Krish, Roshni shall we fix the wedding next month or may be after 2 months ?

Roshni: No uncle, I m not ready for marriage now.
