It was 5pm already, Abhi n pari had reached home n Purab went to International Airport, he was going to join his daughter in Paris,
As soon as pari entered her room she msg Pragya, "hey i just came home from pune, n I'm so excited about this concert, pls check mail, I have already send you vip pass, take printout, will meet there directly, it's this Sunday, you have 6days to get yourself fit n ready to dance, sorry if you feel I'm being stubborn or bossy, but I really really want to meet you again, bye for now, take care"
There was smile on Pragya's face after reading msg, she felt as if her own daughter being stubborn for something,but she didn't reply, I didn't wanted to to say no n disappoint her nor she wanted to go to concert, n she started with her evening walk, she was enjoying cool breeze touching her cheeks, n lifting her hairs, view of sun setting was breath taking, she in herself, thinking how her life changed in this few days n As time passed she was back to her room n surprised to see about 8 missed calls from pari, she immediately check time it was just 7.15pm, god she doesn't have peace, I should call her now, just then Suresh arrives to take her his home,"Hey, hope I didn't disturb you, come let's go"
"So early???"
"You don't know Mumbai traffic, it will take more than hour to reach us, by then it will be almost 9"
"Ok, ok, just give me 5mins"
"Ok, fast hurry up"
She wore simple red n pink Kruti n jeans with white canvas shoes,  Colours of Kruti gave more enhancements to skin n features,
"Wow, you look so beautiful, just like my younger sister Rachna"
"Really!!"
"Ya come on, let's go now"
"Ok ok let just make one call" he takes phone from her hands,"later, you talk in car ok"
"Ok "
Suresh had by mistake turn phone on silent mode
Here pari got more n more restless that why Pragya is not picking phone, in this 40 mins she tried hundreds time
"I'm worried Dad, why she is not picking up my call, is she mad on me??"
"Here take my phone n try, if she really mad on you then she will pick this or if not she must be really busy or something"
She jump in excitement n called from Abhi's phone but still she doesn't pickup call, pari sighed at lest she is not mad or anything
"So what do think???where she must be busy!"
"She was asking about karva chauth n it's tomorrow....."
"Dad does that mean...."
"Whatever that's mean, why are you pouting???"
She tells to herself how do I make you understand that's Means it doesn't affect you if she is seeing someone else
"I like her very much"
Abhi was quick to understand what this conversation will lead to n what she meant
"You know how much I love your mom, right??" He wanted to end this even before she could start with this topic
"Yes Dad n I love her too, but ....!!"
"Enough for today, in future I don't want to hear this 'but' again"
She throws her mobile, "happy now "
N goes straight to her room, this was not  part of  any time plan, actually she herself was scared of how he will react when he knows bulbul n Pragya are same, Purab uncle knew all this while, her mom was alive all this time, a new thing popped up in her mind "what if Dad gets angry with mom,??? She lied all this while n what if even after knowing everything he still doesn't accept her???"
Here Pragya n Suresh reached his home,
As she entered his mother welcomed them along with Tanu
"Wow so you did all these arrangements!!" House was decorated with orchids n lawns were done with small lamps Pragya was mesmerised with it
"Who else will do!!" Suresh said pulling Tanu's leg
"I love to decorate our home, specially on occasions, MAA your beta again started..... money minded"
"What did you said????" He quickly went besides her n twisted her arm
"Maa .......!"
"Suresh one more time I see you  annoying her, you will be out from this house"
Pragya was smiling n loving how they teased each other n his mom came to recuse
"Mom this is bulbul, I was telling about yesterday"
She touches aunty's feet
"God blessed you my child, have sit I will be right back"
"So all excited..." Tanu asked her giving hi 5
"Ya"
"So tell me about your better half!"
She became little nervous n Suresh could easily make out this on her face, before she could answer
"Arre first tell about our love story, we will listen about her when her better half join us tomorrow ok" he completes sentence on one breath
"Ya that's great"
Pragya had sight of relief, "how you two met??"
3hours passed from time she asked Tanu this, they even had finished their dinner but Tanu was still going on with her version of story
Now Pragya was getting bored, she thought of messaging pari n took out her phone, she was shocked to see so many missed calls from her
She excused herself n went out n called but now pari phone was not reachable
At same time, Abhi was sad n sitting in balcony thinking about what he had done!! He took out his laptop n was about to write mail but his Pragya's imagine came in front of him
"Pragya look what I have done, I made her cry, but what she was thinking I can never let that happen, she wants me to move on maybe I'm wrong but that's what she meant by telling "I like her" did I failed in giving love of both parents, that's why she is missing you her mom, ( he saw her putting her hand on head as if she is telling you are idiot) oh yes you always have answers, that bulbul already loves someone else, so even if pari wants this is not possible, you always have answers Pragya I love you" n he prays god please get bulbul her love back so I can live peacefully with my daughter n he goes back to his room
Same time Pragya was standing out in lawn keeping her hand on head "god what must be that important that sh called so many times,"just then she noticed last call n calls back
"Hello.."
"Yes"
"Who is a this???"
"You called so you tell first"
"Listen ...,"
"Bulbul!!!"
"Are you Pari's father??"
"Yes"
""Is she ok?? I mean she called so many times"
"Of course, she is sleeping right now"
"What???"
"What kind of father are you???"
"What do you mean!!"
"I'm dame sure you must have scold her n that's why she is sleeping early"
"What??? How you..... I mean who told you, you are the one who was not picking up her call" he was surprised to know how deeply she understand pari
"What???  you knew !! n still you allowed her to call so many times, I mean really how irresponsible of you" she now get even more annoyed
"Irresponsible of me??? You are one who didn't  said yes for concert"
"Like really, are you sure you are her father??"
"Now you are crossing limits"
"You have already broke all limits, how can you allow your child to go to concerts with stranger..."
"But...."
"I have not finished yet, just listen, first you give mobile to 8year kid, then allow her to talk to total stranger n on top of that hat allowing her to go concert also this too much...." she was still not done with taunting but now Abhi had lost his cool n shouts
"ENOUGH..., ( instantly realising his tone, he clams down a bit) I know we have not met but I have seen you through my daughter's eyes, if she says she trusts you, means I trust you, I'm single parent n I have to be away from her for hours, that's why I gave her mobile at such age, so we can be in touch all the time, I trust her, she shares everything with me, I knew when she met you, what questions you exchanged about ovaries all ( he forgot word periods, all remembered was ovaries) your met with accident then paralysed for years n  now you are away from everyone so that you can take charge of your life ( he fakes that he knows she is in Mumbai) I only told her to ask for concert as I know you are here only
(She was speechless for longest time) helloooo are you still there on phone"
she had so much to talk now but all she could say "Yes"
"You know my name but not my story"
"What??? I don't know your name, but I would sure like to know how you know that I'm in Mumbai"
So she is in Mumbai, he thinks to himself
"Well it's easy, I have app true caller, in that you come you know from where person is calling"
"Really!!!" She was amazed there is such app also n forgot all her anger
"Look I'm sorry, you are right I did scold pari n that's why she slept early but it's not because she was calling you again n again,"
"Then??"
"It's personal, sorry can't discuss with strangers"
Both laughed out loud n call it night, but Pragya did request him that don't tell pari that she called n he also requested she should she come for concert so that he can actually meet her in person but she didn't agree n he also didn't force her,  obviously for that he had planned something

Hope you like it
