It was the time of night, the moon was shining in the sky. A car stopped outside the Chauhan house and the Rathore family got out of the car. A bouquet was in Aditya’s hand.

Aditya looked at the Chauhan mansion. The Rathore family moved to the Chauhan mansion and the Chauhan family came to welcome the Rathore family. Aditya saw that Avni is coming while setting her dupatta.

Aditya slowed down his speed to see Avni who saw the Rathore family and smiled.

Both families greeted each other. Avni took blessings from the Rathore family and Aditya from the Chauhan family.

Amar: Welcome back, boy.

They smiled and hugged.

Amar: How are you?

Aditya: I am good. How are you?

Amar: Good.

They broke the hug. Aditya and Avni saw each other.

Aditya: Hi.

Avni: Hi.

They smiled.

Aarti: this bouquet?

Avni looked at Aditya and saw a bouquet in Aditya’s hand. Aditya blushed and then he looked at Avni. Everyone smiled. Avni looked down.
Everyone moved to the mansion Avni was going while talking to Anjana and Aditya made a face.

Anjana: Avni. You come with Adi.

Anjana kept her hand on Avni's shoulder. Avni felt shy so she looked down and Anjana smiled. Anjana went while talking and Avni stopped. Avni turned and she saw Aditya. Aditya came to Avni and stopped.

Aditya: What happened?

Avni: Nothing. Just wanted to welcome you to our home.

Aditya smiled and passed the bouquet to Avni who smiled and took the bouquet.

Avni: Thank you.

Aditya: you’re welcome.

They smiled and Aditya signed let's go with his hand. Avni smiled and they walked slowly. Avni looked at Aditya.

Avni: tired?

Aditya: little bit.

Avni smiled.

Aditya: Actually, I was tired but now I got my energy.

Avni looked at him and smiled because she didn't understand. Aditya looked down and smile then he looked at Avni.

Aditya: By the way, how are you?

Avni: fine.

Aditya: good.

They smiled.

Avni: your work had completed?

Aditya nodded and said yes. Avni nodded while smiling. They went inside and saw that the Rathore family is greeting Aarti's family. Aditya greeted them and then he went to meet them. Avni thinks and sighed.

Anjana: Avni, come and sit.

Avni smiled and went to sit with her. Everyone was enjoying themselves and talking.

Aarti came.

Aarti: dinner is ready please, come.

Everyone signed each other let's go. They moved to the dining area and had dinner.

After dinner, everyone was sitting in the living area where Aarti and Avni came carrying big trays, and bowls of dessert were kept on them. Aditya smiled to see Avni.

Aditya in mind: soon you will serve us like this in our home. Your and My home.

Avni and Aarti kept the trays on the table.

Aditya in mind: I just can't wait for the moment when we will be declared husband and wife.

Aditya smiled. Avni and Aarti were giving bowls to everyone and now three bowls were left. One was of Aarti, the second for Avni, and the third for Aditya. Aarti picked up the bowl and she saw Aditya but something struck her mind. Aarti looked at Avni and gave the bowl to her. Avni was confused and Aarti took her bowl hurriedly and went to sit with Aman. Avni was just looking at Aarti who had a bit. Aditya was looking at them.

Avni looked at the tray and one bowl was there and one was in Avni's hand. Avni looked around and saw Aditya sitting with empty hands. Aditya was looking at Avni and he showed his empty hands. Avni understood Aarti's trick and looked at her. Aarti avoided eye contact and looked away while eating. Avni shook her head. Avni went to Aditya and gave him the bowl. When Aditya was taking the bowl then their hands touched and they looked at the bowl and then they looked at each other. Avni blushed and Aditya smiled. Avni took her hand back and kept her hair behind her ear. Avni turned and moved. Aditya smiled and had a bit while looking at Avni who picked up a bowl.

They had dessert and then they got busy in their chitchat. After some time, they were having tea, and Aman and Arjun looked at each other and Arjun winked.

Arjun fell his tea on Aditya’s lap deliberately and Aditya was shocked. Aditya got up. Avni also got shocked and cupped her mouth. Aditya got up and to see him standing up, others also got up.

Arjun: sorry. Sorry, bhai. Sorry, sorry. Don’t know how it fell. Sorry.

Aditya was cleaning his jeans with his hand.

Aditya: Arjun, what you did?

Arjun: sorry, Bhai.

Alka: Aditya, go and wash it.

Aditya looked at Alka.

Alka: Avni, go and show him the washroom.

Avni was looking at her mother and Aditya looked at Avni. Avni nodded.

Avni: come.

Aditya nodded and they went from there. Avni brought Aditya to her room.

Avni: washroom is on this side.

Aditya nodded.

Aditya: I am coming.

Avni nodded and said ok. Aditya went and Avni thinks. Avni went to the cupboard and took out the gift box. Avni was looking at it.

In the washroom, Aditya washed his jeans and then he was cleaning his jeans with tissue paper.

Aditya said while cleaning his jeans: that idiot Arjun ruined my jeans. Aditya washed his hands and wiped them with the tissue and then he went. Avni was waiting for Aditya and she heard the sound of opening the door. Avni turned and Aditya came out. Aditya smiled to see Avni who passed a smile to him. Aditya saw the gift in Avni’s hand. Aditya looked at Avni and came to her.

Aditya: what is this?

Avni looked at the gift and she was puzzled. Avni looked at Aditya.

Avni: ab, aa. This is for you. I wanted to confess something but I was puzzled that how I say so I record that on a handy cam.

Aditya was confused.

Avni: you will understand everything when you will see the video.

Aditya smiled and he took the gift from Avni.

Avni: I hope, you will not misunderstand me.

Aditya frowned.

Aditya: Misunderstand?

Avni nodded.

Avni: yes misunderstand. Once you will see the video. You will get the answers to your every question.

Aditya was confused but he smiled.

Aditya: ok. But why you packed this?

Avni was surprised.

Avni: ab, woh, that no one gets doubted.

Aditya smiled.

Aditya: You gave me a gift now it is too my duty to give you a gift.

Avni shook her head.

Adity: yes.

Avni was looking at Aditya innocently. Aditya smiled and he took out a box from his coat and Avni saw the gift. Aditya passed the gift to Avni.

Aditya: This is for you.

Avni: what was the need for it?

Aditya: when you gave me gifts, did I say that "What was the need for it" No, right?

Avni looked down.

Aditya: then?

Avni looked at Aditya and smiled. Aditya passed the gift to Avni who accepted the gift.

Avni: thank you.

Aditya: you're welcome.

They smiled.

Aditya: there is a pendant in it. If you wear it I will appreciate that.

Avni smiled.

Aditya: and I will love it if you wear it to any of our wedding function. I will wear that brooch and you wear it.

Avni: I will definitely wear it but first I want your answer.

Aditya: Answer?

Avni nodded.

Avni: as I said earlier when you will see the video you will understand everything.

Aditya: ok.

Avni: I will wait for your answer.

Aditya: ok. I won't make you wait for me for long.

Aditya smiled and Avni smiled slightly. Avni lowered her gaze and then her eyes fell on Aditya’s jeans.

Avni: do you want anything to dry it?

Aditya looked at his jeans and then he looked at Avni.

Aditya: no, it's ok. It will get dry itself.

Avni made a face and she moved to the dressing table.

Avni said while going: If you will be formal like this then how will we take steps forward?

Aditya smiled and looked down. Avni took the hair dryer from the dressing table and she came to Aditya. Avni passed the hair dryer to Aditya.

Avni: hmm. here is the hair dryer. You can dry it with it. As people say, "necessity is the mother of invention" so here is the invention for your necessity.

They chuckled.

Avni: you can use iron also to dry it. I am going outside. You do in which you feel comfortable.

Avni smiled and she turned. Avni was going and Aditya was looking at her.

Aditya: Avni.

Avni stopped and turned.

Avni: hmm.

Aditya: you stay here.

Avni was surprised.

Avni: I. I. H, how can I...

Aditya moved to Avni who was avoiding the gaze. Aditya stood in front of Avni.

Aditya: why can't you stay here? Hmm?

Avni looked at Aditya and then she forwarded her instantly.

Aditya: you just said that "If you will be formal like this then how will we take steps forward." and now you are taking steps back.

Avni: n, no. Ab, you, you will dry your je, jeans so...

Aditya: So?

Avni looked at Aditya.

Aditya: so?

Avni looked down.

Aditya: Avni, I want to spend some time with you, and now when we have got a chance, I can't let it go from my hands. Aaand... About drying these jeans then...

Aditya raised his hand and the dryer was in his hand.

Aditya: I will dry it with this. So relax. Now be a good girl and sit on the bed and talk to me.

Avni smiled and Aditya moved aside and signed "come" with his hand. Avni smiled and they moved. Avni went to sit on the bed and Aditya went to the dressing table. Aditya kept the gift on the dressing table.

Avni told him about the switchboard. Avni came to Aditya and she helped him to plug in the hair dryer. Aditya pressed the button by mistake and Avni's hair flies. Avni closed her eyes. Aditya got shocked at first but when he looked at Avni, he was lost to see Avni. Avni opened her eyes and looked at Aditya. Avni found Aditya staring at her and Avni was lost in Aditya's eyes. The eyes locked and they were lost in the eyes of each other. Their hair was flying because of the hair dryer.

The hair dryer fell from Aditya's hand and they came back to reality. They looked at the hair dryer and then they looked at each other. They felt awkward and shy. Aditya picked up the hair dryer and switched off it. Avni kept her hair behind her ear.

Avni: I have some work so I am going. You come when your work has been done.

Avni kept her hair behind her ear and she went from there while blushing.

Aditya was looking at Avni and his cheeks were red as Avni's. Aditya ran his hand through his hair while blushing. Aditya smiled.

Aditya came to the living area and he saw Avni who was avoiding eye contact. Aditya smiled. Aditya saw the handy cam in his hand and he thinks. Aditya went outside and no one noticed him.

Aditya came back and sat with Avni. Avni was feeling shy so she moved slightly. Aditya looked at Avni and shook his head while smiling.

The moon was shining in the sky. Aditya entered his room and closed the door of his room. Aditya moved forward and looked at the handy cam which was in his hand. Aditya sighed.

Aditya: Thank God, no one noticed the gift in my hand. Kitna bachta, bachta chupa kar laya hun.

Aditya shook his head. Aditya unwrapped the gift while moving and saw a box. Aditya took out the handy came. Aditya looked at it but before he on it, his phone rang. Aditya looked at his clothes and went to keep the handy cam on the table. Aditya took out his phone and talked. Aditya kept his phone on the bed and went to grab his clothes from the cupboard. He forgot about the handy cam and went to get fresh.

Aditya came out after getting fresh and was wiping his face. His eyes fell on the handy cam.

Aditya: oh no, I forgot about it.

Aditya thought and remembered Avni's words. Aditya looked at the handy cam. He went to the table and kept the towel there. Aditya picked up the handy cam and went to the bed while looking at it. Aditya sat on the bed and was looking at the handy cam. Aditya thought.

Flashback:

Avni: ab, aa. This is for you. I wanted to confess something but I was puzzled that how I say so I record that on a handy cam.

Flashback ends.

Aditya: Avni said that she wants to confess something... Did she mean to confess her feelings for me? What else, she has to confess... Adi, why are you wasting time in thinking, just see it.

Aditya looked at the handy cam and opened it. Aditya on the handy cam and he saw a video saved in it. Aditya forwarded his hand to open it. Aditya opened the video and saw Avni sitting on the couch. Aditya was looking at it.
