                  " Now come on give your left hand " she said to Chhaya , " and Amar your duty now , make sure she don't open it again " mom said in a jolly mood .

             Amar took her hand , but she pulled it back , desperately looking towards her siblings , Anirudh was sitting between them , he stood up and walked towards them , towards his Runi , 

            " Chhaya ...., you are simply worried , Amar knows everything , we told him and even talked to his parents , thats why they are coming , " Anjali tried to make Chhaya understand . She saw Anirudh walking towards them , 

           " the best part is ....Anirudh knows Amar , they are now friends for so many years "
