Prerna and Rishab were doing the Aarti. Just the Bajaj and Basu were there.
"Har saal jabse meri shaadi hui thi tabse main aur Moloy pehli Aarti karte aaye hain iss ghar mein.. aur iss baar kahan se aagaye yeh log pata nahi mere hin ghar mein mujhe Aarti karne ko wait karna pad raha hai" Mohini says to her daughters who are standing with them.
"Mom agar aapko yaad ho toh yeh ghar Bajaj ka hin hai abb aur woh hume iss ghar mein rehne de rahe hain wahin badi baat hai humare liye.." Nivedita says and Mohini glare at her.

After the Aarti they all are at the dinning table having their breakfast. Suddenly a sound of sneeze stop everyone in their track and all of them look at Rishab.
"Rishab you okay?" Prerna asked and Rishab nods.
"Tu baarish mein bheega tha kal?" Maasi asked and Rishab looks at her sheepishly.
"Tujhe pata hai na tu thodi der bhi baarish mein rukta hai toh tujhe sardi lag jati hai.. phir kyun bhigna tha tujhe" Shardha scolded Rishab.
"Abb Maasi aapko kaise bataun uss baarish mein jitni badi cheez mili hai mujhe uske samne yeh cold kuch nahi hai.." Rishab murmured
Prerna touched Rishab's forehead to check if he has fever but and the temperature is slightly high.
"Rishab aapko toh thoda sa fever bhi hai.." Prerna says in a concern voice.
"It's nothing Prerna don't worry.. aap sab breakfast kijiye" Rishab says

"Abb baarish mein romance karenge toh shardi toh lagegi na.." Tushar says in a low voice to Tanvi.
"Aapko kaise pata ki unhone romance kiya hai baarish mein?" Tanvi asked
"Common sense Tanu.." Tushar says
"I think you are right.." Tanvi says and they both smiles.

Morning (09:15 am)

"Maasi aap sab.. kuch kaam hai?" Rishab asked
"Kaam toh mom ko hai hum toh bass abhi joh drama hone wala hai woh dekhne aaye hain.." Tushar says with a smirk.
"Konsa drama?" Prerna asked not understanding what Tushar is talking about.
"Rishab bhai maa ke haath mein dekhiye.." Tanvi says and Prerna looks at Rishab who's face fall.
"Maasi nahi yeh nahi main medicine le lunga par yeh nahi.." Rishab says
"Rishab chup chap piyoge thik hai.. koi natak nahi" Shardha says and Prerna looks in the bowl it is Kadha.
"Maasi aapko pata hai na I hate it's taste.. please Maasi main nahi piunga" Rishab says
"Rishab sirf kadha hai yeh itne kya tantrums dikha rahe hain pilijiye.." Prerna says
"Mujhe nahi pini" Rishab says like a child.
"Bachpana nahi gaya hai tumhara haan.. piyoge ya bachpan main jaise pilate the waise pilayein.." Shardha says
"Maasi please" Rishab pleaded
"Tushar pakdo isse.." Shardha says to Tushar.
"Mere paas bhi aaya na toh maar dalunga tujhe.." Rishab says glaring at Tushar.
"Kuch nahi karenge aap usse.. aap khud piyoge kadha ya hum sab aapko pakad ke pilayein" Prerna says and Rishab takes the bowl from Maasi's hand with a sulking face.
After getting glares from his Maasi and wife Rishab gulped it down. Everyone laughs looking at his face.
"Doh bacchon ka baap ban chuka hai par bachpana nahi gaya hai iska abhi tak.." Maasi says and others laugh while Rishab just sulk like a child.
