After cleaning up the mess the girls returned to living room only to get death glare from the ladies of the house.

"We would love to get introduced to the girls"said the lady Radha Singh who was here with Atharva's alliance for kirti.

"Ohh yess..!Here she is kirti my daughter , she is Pratiksha her sister and she is Hetvi our Pratiksha 's bestfriend"introduced divya gesturing girls to touch their feets.

All three girls touched their feets.Radha asked kirti to sit beside her whereas Pratiksha and Hetvi were standing in the corner looking at Kirti dumbfounded as she was behaving so shy and polite.Hetvi and Pratiksha exchanged glances and Pratiksha dashed to the kitchen followed by hetvi who gave excuse of getting tea and coffe.

Pratiksha entered the kitchen and burst out laughing and hetvi joined her soon both were laughing hard .Avni entered the kitchen and was confused seeing both of them laughing like mad.

"Are u both gone cases? We have guest at home and u guys have got nothing to do rather than laughing"exclaimed Avni loudly

"Maa did u see dii how she was behaving like ?"Asked Pratiksha wiping her eyes and panting hard

"I did. Atleast she is behaving well u guys behave too ".chided avni

Both of them were nodding their head like obedient kids.Later she went out after ordering them to get tea and coffee for guests fast.Both of them again burst into laughter after her going but soon composed themselves and got back to work.

Soon after all the discussion guests went after sometime and everyone departed to their room to rest .Whereas Hetvi and Pratiksha left for cafe for much needed break to come out of their trauma after seeing kirti's behaviour . Coincidentally vrushti and kirti were in the same cafe as them.They were here to meet Atharva to know the reaction and feedback of his parents regarding Kirti. Here,hetvi and Pratiksha were chatting more like Pratiksha was talking and hetvi was looking at her and her animated expressions and listening intently.

Soon they both placed their orders ,hetvi ordered her usual coffee whereas Pratiksha ordered butterscotch milkshake. As they were talking hetvi received call from Hem asking about her whereabouts so she told him she was out at the cafe,soon he told her that he will be there and hung up the call.Hetvi pressed her lips and cleared her throat, Pratiksha raised her one brows asking what.Hetvi gave her tight smile and shook her head in nothing,this continued 3 three times.Hetvi again cleared her throat and this time Pratiksha handed her a glass of water.

"Ek hi baar mein apna gala saaf karle yaa phir cough syrup laake du main tujhe"yelled Pratiksha getting attention of people present their.(Clear your throat at once or else do u want me to get u cough syrup)

"Actually hem is coming here to meet me"blurted out hetvi looking here and there smiling nervously.

Pratiksha blinked.Once.Twice.Thrice

"Kyuuu....?Kyu mere jeevan mein Khushi nahi dekh sakta hai voh insaan?!"exclaimed Pratiksha dramatically (why....?why can't that human see my life happy )

"Shut up okayy "hetvi snapped and rolled her eyes

"Ouch...!I am hurt.Ab tujhe mera dukh dard peeda irritate kar raha hai!Hey bhagwaan mujhe ye din dekhne se pehle uthaa kyu nahi liyaa"wailed Pratiksha dramatically (Now my pain ,sadness,sorrow is irritating u..!God why didn't u kille before I saw this day)

"Shut up and wait till he is coming"ordered hetvi

"As if I have any option"said Pratiksha scrunching her nose.Hetvi nodded at her.

They were waiting for hem chatting casually when Pratiksha 's phone rang.

"Kon hai bhai"questioned hetvi(who is it?)

"Chachi"replied Pratiksha before picking up the call.A bright smile bloomed on Pratiksha's face listening to her chachi

"Hein sacchi?"questioned Pratiksha (are u saying truth?)

"Chalo chalo bhai ghar chalo ,khush khabar hai yrr..chal na yrrr"yapped Pratiksha excitedly (let's go home comeon ,it's a good news,come naa let's go)

Hetvi looked at her deadpanned.

"Okay fine sorry u wait here for him mom called and asked me to be home soon dadiji is coming"Said Pratiksha nervously

"What? Your dadi is coming than i am coming with u ,u don't need to face her alone baby"said hetvi proceeding to call hem

"Calm down ,it's okay u talk to him and seedha subah aana okay?"said Pratiksha (directly come in morning)

"No no not possible I am coming with u"said hetvi

"Maine bola na tu nahi aayegi mere saath bechaare jiju tere liye aa rhe h and tu mere liye unko mana karegii it's not fair .Tu mere saath nahi aa rhi h and main akeli jaa rhi hu and that's final.End of discussion" ordered Pratiksha leaving no room for hetvi to argue(I told once right u r not coming with me . poor jiju is coming to meet u and u r gonna deny him becoz of me that's not fair!I am going alone and u r not coming with me)

"Accha good news kyaa hai? Jiske liye itna chilla rahi h tu?"asked hetvi (what is the good news due to which u r shouting so much?)

"Areyy haan i toh totally forgot kirti Di's engagement is fixed on coming Sunday .That's why chachi called me to come home early exclaimed that's why I am going and u r staying here "Pratiksha excitedly"

Hetvi nodded still concerned and tried to speak but Pratiksha shut her with a glare.Pratiksha left from there.
