Next day morning Mehak and Shaurya gets ready to go to Sharma's. He asked her stand straight and don't move around as he wants to remove the bandage from the head and replace the plaster. On the way to the home they dropped by florist to get flower bouquet and cake. They reached Sharma's. All greeted and welcomed them. Kanta chachi was not in at home, all asked about the plaster on her forehead. She said is just a small injury and nothing to worry. Sonal came to join them at hall, she went to hug her and wish her happy birthday, peck on her cheek. Passed the gift to her with the bouquet. Both went to the room and started to chit chatting. Sonal asked her what that plasters on the forehead. Mehak said nothing just a small thing. Sonal said do you expect me to believe it? Tell me now or else I won't talk to you, Mehak gets animated and tell her about her adventure mall trip. Mehak tell her don't worry about her now as she is already saved by her super hero Shaurya Khanna. Sonal pull Mehak's cheek and said God made you fitness freak Shaurya Khanna type husband but you are like potato. Mehak pouted at her and asked her is it she is really fat? Sonal asked why suddenly asking this, Shaurya said you are fat is it. No not really, just asking, but you are cute. There will be some guys like you kind of girls. Remember when we went to my village in Patiala one of my cousin likes you and keep running after you. Mehak ask her quite don't talk about that, it was so funny. Shaurya was standing outside the door hearing these two ladies talking. Kanta chachi came up looking for Mehak and Shaurya. She bring some prasad. She saw Mehak in Sonal's room and feed all 3 of them the prasad. Then she saw the plaster on the forehead asked her where did she injured her head. She said it's nothing but Kanta insist her to tell about it and Mehak told her about it. Kanta chachi got upset as all these happens and Shaurya and you didn't call to inform us anything? Why we are not important is it. She left the room. Shaurya called her chachi, Mehak hold his hand ask him to wait I will go and talk to her, she went to her room. Kanta chachi was sitting on the bed. Mehak went in and kneel down at her. Chachi please chachi don't be upset with me. It just happened and Shaurya already saved me and it's over. We don't want to tell to you guys so that you don't worry unnecessarily about it. Kanta chachi replied I am your mother and don't have any rights to worry is it? Mehak said you have all rights on me. When maa left me at 12 years old, you took care of me as of your own child, you sacrificed a lot for me. You prioritize my happiness. Dadu didn't talk to me for 10 years but I will be upset if you don't talk to me. Now that God has taken my mommy and daddy but he gave you, Mansi Chachi, PD, Chachu as my parents. Now I am married and have Karuna maa as my mother too. Do you know I feel like my life is so blessed because I have a lots of people to shower me with love? Not to forget Shaurya. He loves me so much that there is no words to describe my happiness. Now you don't worry about me he takes care of me like a mommy and daddy too. If I am sick he will be awake the entire night to take care of me. Maybe that's why God takes away my parents from me and he gave me all happiness in you all and Shaurya. Remember so many people will taunt me who will marry me, how I can be a daughter in law etc., now I am as happy as a blessed girl. So now smile, she tickles Kanta chachi and asked her to be happy as they want to cut cake for Sonal and all are waiting for her. Kanta asked her to stop tickling her, now married already but still like a small child. Outside the room door Shaurya and Sonal standing hearing it. Shaurya's eyes welled and Sonal's tears already running from her eyes.

They both left from room door step to hall. Mehak brings Kanta chachi to cut cake. All sing the birthday song and cut the cake. Mehak giggling happily as Sonal feed her the cake. Shaurya admired her how she loved him madly and told himself that, he will love her more than anything in his life. During their meal time, Nehal asked Shaurya, jiju does cooker wakes you up at morning? He didn't understand her question and asked what that is? Nehal explain that before marriage Mehak di usually will prepare breakfast for all and her pressure cooker sound will wake us all even before the cock wake up and spoil all our sleep. After that she will go nicely sleep. Mehak asked her to be quiet and look at her plate. Mohit added di will do all our favorite menu, for me is custard pudding with lots of fruits. Shaurya looked at her side ways and continues, nowadays your sister became lazy and I already done with morning sprint but she still haven't wake up yet. Mehak's eye open wide and embarrassed. Kanta chachi asked is this how you are behaving at your in-laws? What does Karunaji will think about my upbringing? Mehak pouted at her giving her puppy face, I will call Karunaji and ask her to be strict with her, and Shaurya chuckled seeing Mehak. She looked at him, giving him her innocent response. The day were well spent at Sharma's with loads of laughter's and happiness. Shaurya and Mehak left and heads to Khanna Mansion.
