After returning... Ria saw Koustav a few times going office....and started reliving her teen memories of stalking and sneeking glances of him.
Ria asked her mother if Koustav wanted to move on or not. Hearing this, Soma informed her about Koustav's parents coming on Sunday.....
That conversation ended this way in their house.
In Koustav's home:
It was Friday....Koustav returned home early....and after many years sat with his father to catch up some tv show. Mita took the opportunity and handed him the tea and asked him,
Mita: As a mother I never asked anything from you. Today me and your father have a wish.
Koustav: hmmm....what wish Ma? Where do you want to travel this year ma!? Don't drag me along!
Mita: Its about you.....I want you to think about yourself now in different way......it has been 3 years.....
Koustav: And the way is!??????
Mita: We asked for Ria as your bride....we want you to marry and start a new life.
Koustav: in those six months did you ever consider Nikita as your daughter?How can you arrange such a thing without asking me?
Mita: I considered both of you as my children.....Have you seen yourself? It horrifies us about your future! When you wanted to marry Nikita....we accepted your marriage, didn't we? Now its your turn...give us some piece Koustav..
