"Your dad and I were planning for a family outing, so that we would get time before you both go." Aunty said panicking.
"Don't worry mama, we will do the packing today itself. And tomorrow night is the flight. We have two days, to spend time together." He said looking at aunty.
"But how will it happen so fast? It's just some days since you got married, if you both go, it will be so empty here." She said as tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Maa, you sit down first, calm down!" I said and she instantly looked up at me, as I made her sit.
"What did you say?" She repeated, wiping her tears slowly.
"Calm down..."
"No no, before that."

"Not a bad idea!" He looked at his daughter, while Aaru smiled and went back to her room.
"Mayra, you call Aadya too. I will talk to Maanvi ji till then." Maa said and I nodded taking my phone from the table.

"You're so evil!" Kabir shouted once he was successfully pushed into the pool by Aryan, while we all shared a laugh looking at him.
"This is what you get for showing those pictures of mine." Aryan stood there crossing his arms.
"I found another one...bhabi." Aaru called me.
"Aaru, I will kill you if you show that one!" He warned her, before he could snatch the photograph from her, I caught hold of it.
"This...is...Aryan?" I asked between my laugh as I glanced at the little girl in the photograph.
Yes, he was dressed up as a girl for a school function.
