All gathered for the lunch, Karthik too joined them, he has specially took a half day leave just to be with his di, aaj barson baad sab ek saath ekatthe huye hain. When Karthik heard that Priya and Ram are coming for their pagphere ritual and spending a night with them he was delighted and happy. Raat ke khan eke table pe jab Shipraji ne yeh news diya he was very much excited aur phir jab usse yeh malum para ke iss plan ke peeche Natasha ka haath hain toh he can't even express how happy he was, he just mimed a thank you to her and Natasha saw that enormous happiness in his eyes. She knew that Karthik would be very happy to hear such. Priya ke jaane ke baad sab kuch bikhjar gaya tha iss ghar me, Shipra-Sudhirji ke saath saath Karthik ko bhi sambhalna para tha Natasha ko, sab tut se gaye the, Karthik kuch bolta nahi tha par Natasha ko ehsaas tha uske andar ke dard ke bare me aur yehi baat Natasha ko andar hi andar khaai jaa rahi thi, she was trying very hard to make things normal par ek ma-baap ko kaise dilasa koi de jinhone apni aulaad khoyi hain. Agar Sharma house me yeh baat thi toh Kapoor Mansion me bhi kuch alag nahi tha, Natasha ne apne aakhon ke samne apne hi bhai ko ghut ghut ke jeete dekha hain, dadi aur ma ko dekha hain tarpte huye, yaahan usne samhala toh wahan Saumya ne sab kuch sambhala, ajeeb baat hain kisi ek ke jaane se do pariwaar bikhar gaya, Priya sab ke liye kya hain sab ko inn do saalon me yaad ata raha hain. This was the time when Natasha thought of having their baby, shayad yehi ek raasta tha dono pariwaaron me phir se khushiyan lane ki, din raat Karthik ko yun ghute huye dekhna bhi usse achha nahi lagta tha lekin uske haathon me kuch nahi tha sivaye yeh option ke, pehele she was also scared as a baby is a big responsibility par jab deeply usne sochna shuru kiya she found this is the best she can do for her family, waise bhi shaadi ko ek saal ho gaye the and she was almost settled in her life and in this house...Natasha came out from her reverie when she felt Karthik's hand on her hand under the table, he just squeezed it and she immediately looked up at him, she saw his eyes are brimming with joyous tears, she also kept her hand on him and just acknowledged his feelings.
At the lunch table, Shipraji placed the dishes and called everyone to take their seats, all came and seated.
Ram - hmmm, all looks yummy
Natasha - lekin bhai aaj aapke liye kuch special nahi banaya hain, aaj sirf bhabhi ka din hain so...
Ram frowns and looking at his face all smiled but Shipraji said, aise kaise ho sakta hain ke main mere damaad ke liye kuch special na banayu!
Natasha - not fair mummyji!
Sudhirji - achha ab bohot hua, chalo shuru karo sab
Shipraji served everyone and while serving she placed her hand on Priya's head and nudged her to eat well. Aaj barson baad itni khushiyan wapas aayi hain iss ghar me, sab bohot khush hain.
Shipraji - Natasha tum bhi beyth jao beta, main Khush ko dekhti hoon
Natasha - mummyji aap bhi beythiye, Khush ko main sulake aayi hoon, aap beythiye saying this she makes her seat with all of them. She knew very well how a mother missed her daughter for 2 years, not only missed but longed for her, aaj woh khud ek maa hain shayad isi liye woh samajh sakti hain kaise feel hota hain jab ek maa ko pata chalta hain ke uska ansh usko chod ke hamesha hamesha ke liye chala gaya hain, iss baat ko sochne se bhi mann kamp uthta hain aur Shipraji-Sudhirji ne yeh face kiya hain. Brushing all the negative thoughts out of her mind she also came and joined them in the table.
Ram was relishing his aloo ka paratha which his mother-in-law made for him, he dipped a piece in butter and put that in his mouth, chewing it he said, DELICIOUS, now I know how Priya come to make such tasty parathas, waah! mazaa aa gaya
Karthik was smiling hearing these, he said, jiju waise meri di ki haath ka kuch bhi dish ho woh lajawab hi hote hain, lekin parathas are best.
Natasha - I completely agree with you Karthik.
