"Kakisa, can I ask Swara's hand for my son Sanskar" Annapurna asked holding Dida's hand. She was sitting on the bed beside Dida.

Shobha widened her eyes due to shock where as Swara jerked her head while stating at Annapurna with teary eyes and pale face.

"Sanskar has agreed for this marriage. Swara beta will you marry my son?" Annapurna asked with lot of affection. She caressed Swara's  perplexed face.
