One peaceful afternoon, the postman delivered a beautifully embossed letter addressed to Prachi Kohli. The entire family was lounging in the garden, sipping their chai, when Namrata grabbed the letter with excitement.

Namrata (teasing): "Jiji, tumhe toh koi secret admirer ka letter aaya lagta hai(Sister, you have received a letter from a secret admirer!)"

Esha: Kya woh Kunal wapas aa gaya hai(Is that Kunal back!)😨

Ranbir (raising an eyebrow): "Agar admirer hoga toh main woh letter jaldi phaad doonga(If there is a admirer, I will tear that letter quickly.)"

Esha: Possessive! 🤣

Prachi laughed, taking the envelope and opening it delicately. As she read through the contents, her eyes widened in disbelief.

Prachi: "Ye toh... unbelievable(This is... unbelievable!)"

Naira leaned closer, curious.

Naira: "Kya hua, Prachi(What happened, Prachi?)"

Prachi (still in shock): "Mere old half-Malayali, half-Tamil dance teacher, Mrs. Nandini Pillai, ne mujhe recommend kiya hai government ke saamne... They want me to open my own dance academy across Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Amritsar, Kochi, and Chennai(My old half-Malayali, half-Tamil dance teacher, Mrs. Nandini Pillai, has recommended me in front of the government... They want me to open my own dance academies in Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Amritsar, Kochi and Chennai!)"

Esha: Oh my goodness! 😆

The family gasped. Babita clapped her hands gleefully.

Babita: "Guddan! Wah re meri superstar beti(Sweetheart! She is my superstar daughter!)"

Raj (grinning): "Prachi toh ab national icon banne waali hai(Prachi is now going to become a national icon!)"

Naitik (impressed): "That's a huge honor, Prachi."

Kartik (thoughtfully): "Lekin itna bada project kaise handle karegi akeli(But how will she handle such a big project alone?)"  

Hum hain rahi pyar ke chalna apna kaam

Ranbir smirked: "Isliye toh Kohli family hai yaar(That's why there's Kohli family, man!)"

Prachi smiled shyly. "Unhone kaha hai ki main bharatnatyam aur singing teacher hoon... aur tum sab bhi part ban sakte ho(He has said that I am a Bharatnatyam and singing teacher... and you all can also become a part.)" 

Palbhar mein ho jaayegi har mushkil nakaam

Esha: I can't wait! 😍

Namrata (excitedly): "Main Bollywood aur Papa Bhangra sambhal loongi(I will handle Bollywood and Papa can do Bhangra!)"

Naira (grinning): "Kathak toh mere khoon mein hai... definitely yes(Kathak is in my blood...Definitely yes!)"

Kartik (teasing): "Main Gujarat ka banda hoon, Garba toh meri responsibility hai(I am a man of Gujarat, Garba is my responsibility.)" 

Babita (nostalgic): "Main disco aur retro ka theka le lenge(I will take over disco and retro)"

Raj (playfully): "Arey Babita, tum toh 80s ke queen hain(Hey Babita, you are the queen of the 80s!)"

Hausla na haarenge

Hum toh baazi maarenge

(We won't lose our hopes

We'll be victorious)

Kairav (innocently): "Chachi, mujhe bhi kuch karne do na... main kids' batch ke games aur management dekh loonga(Aunty, let me do something too... I will take care of the games and management of the kids' batch!)"

Esha: Little businessman! 🤩

Dhruv (with a charming grin): "Main toh Prachi Bhabhi ka marketing head ban jaunga... family business ka expansion plan ready hai(I will become the marketing head of Prachi sister-in-law...the expansion plan of the family business is ready!)"

Hausla na haarenge

Hum toh baazi maarenge

(We won't lose our hopes

Ranbir wrapped his arm around Prachi.

Ranbir (teasing): "Aur main? Main kya karu(And me? What should I do?)"

Prachi (smiling mischievously): "Tum na sirf motivation speeches dena aur... achhe se dance sikhana(You only give motivation speeches and... teach dance well!)"

Namrata (laughing): "Ranbir Jiju, hero ho toh thoda masala dikhana padega(Ranbir brother-in-law, if you are a hero, you will have to show some spice!)"

Prachi beamed as her heart filled with pride. Her family wasn't just supportive — they were now partners in fulfilling her lifelong dream.

Ranbir (softly to Prachi): "Proud of you, Prachi... Tumne apne sapnon ko sach kar diya(Proud of you, Prachi... you made your dreams come true.)"

Prachi (whispering): "Aur tumne mujhe believe karne diya(And you let me believe.)"

Esha: These two! 😘

The family burst into laughter and joy, already planning how to bring this academy to life with their love, passion, and unity — the Kohli way.

The next few months brought a wave of happiness, excitement, and change in the Kohli household. Prachi's pregnancy became the center of everyone's attention, and Ranbir took on the role of her ultimate protector with fierce dedication.

Na koi parvah hai khushiyan ho ya gham

(We don't care if there's happiness or sadness

From holding her hand at every doctor's appointment to making sure she never lifted anything heavy, Ranbir became the definition of a doting husband. His over-the-top protectiveness didn't go unnoticed by the family.

Namrata (teasing): "Ranbir Jiju, ab toh lagta hai Prachi Jiji ko haath pakad ke chalane ka Olympic medal mil jayega(Ranbir brother-in-law, now it seems that Prachi sister will get the Olympic medal for walking by holding hands.)"

Raj (grinning): "Humare zamane mein toh Babita ke liye yeh nahi kiya tha, Babita(This was not done for Babita in our times, Babita?)"

Aandhiyon se khelenge

(We'll play with the storms)

Babita (playfully): "Haan haan, Raj toh bas kehte the 'chal na, strong rehna chahiye(Yes yes, Raj used to just say, 'Come on, you should stay strong!')"

Esha: Ye dono aise dikhate hain jaise ye abhi bhi jawaan hoon(These two look like they are still young!)😒😜

Everyone laughed while Prachi gave Ranbir a loving glance, secretly appreciating his care even if it got a little much sometimes.

Dard saare jhelenge

(We'll bear all the pains)

Ranbir (grumbling): "Main bas ensure kar raha hoon ki Prachi aur baby dono safe rahein(I am just ensuring that both Prachi and baby are safe.)"

Kartik (mock serious): "Arey wah Ranbir, tum toh husband goals ban rahe ho(Hey that Ranbir, you are becoming husband goals!)"

Ranbir (grinning): "Main pehle bhi tha, ab aur improve ho gaya hoon(I was there earlier too, now I have improved.)"

Despite being visibly pregnant, Prachi's graceful beauty only seemed to bloom. Her radiant glow attracted compliments wherever they went. But it wasn't just friendly admiration.

Aandhiyon se khelenge

(We'll play with the storms)

At a family dinner outing one evening, a group of businessmen approached the table, pretending to discuss work. One particularly bold man couldn't stop glancing at Prachi.

Businessman: "Mrs. Kohli, aap ka glow toh waise hi mashhoor hai... Ranbir Kohli ki muse hona kaafi bada baat hai(Mrs. Kohli, your glow is so famous... it is a big deal to be Ranbir Kohli's inspiration.)"

Esha: Bhai...woh sach much garbhwati hai(Bro...she is literally pregnant!)🙄

Ranbir's protective instincts kicked in immediately. He shifted closer, placing his arm firmly around Prachi's shoulder.

Ranbir (coldly): "Aur meri wife ko koi unwanted compliment dena bada galat baat hai(And giving any unwanted compliment to my wife is a very wrong thing.)"

Dard saare jhelenge

(We'll bear all the pains)

The man cleared his throat awkwardly and backed away as Kartik and Dhruv suppressed their grins.

Namrata (whispering): "Jealous Jiju alert(Jealous brother-in-law alert!)"

Esha: We already know! 😏

Prachi (softly to Ranbir): "Tum thoda chill kar lo... main tumhari hi hoon na(You chill a little... I am yours, right?)"

Ranbir (softly but seriously): "Mujhe bas pasand nahi jab koi aisi nazar se dekhta hai... tum meri ho, aur hamesha meri hi rahogi(I just don't like it when someone looks at you like that... You are mine, and you will always be mine.)"

The house was filled with laughter and joy as everyone celebrated Prachi's pregnancy journey together. Babita and Raj led yoga sessions for expectant mothers, complete with dramatic poses that had everyone laughing.

Kairav often climbed onto Prachi's lap, talking to the baby about how he'd teach them cricket. Namrata created hilarious TikToks featuring Prachi and the whole family dancing awkwardly, while Dhruv made sure to caption them with witty comments.

Naira (giggling): "Kohli family ke dance moves toh ab viral hone waale hain(Kohli family's dance moves are now going to go viral!)"

As the months passed, Ranbir's fierce protectiveness softened into warm, patient care. Prachi often teased him about being "Papa Kohli in training." Their bond deepened further, filled with playful moments, stolen glances, and promises of an even brighter future together.

Ranbir (whispering to Prachi one night): "Tum jaanti ho na, yeh baby sirf mera nahi... hamari pure family ka sapna hai(You know, this baby is not just my dream but our entire family's dream.)"

Prachi (smiling): "Aur tum us dream ka best part ho, Ranbir(And you are the best part of that dream, Ranbir.)"

They both knew that the journey was just beginning — filled with more love, laughter, and unforgettable moments waiting ahead.

Four months later:

Prachi stood gracefully at the grand opening of Akshara Academy, dressed in an elegant, flowing saree of pastel pink with golden embroidery that complimented her glowing skin. Her bangles chimed softly with every movement, and a faint floral perfume lingered around her. She radiated pride and joy as the chief guest prepared to inaugurate the academy alongside her.

Esha: Gorgeous! 😍

The ribbon was cut, applause filled the air, and everyone celebrated Prachi's remarkable achievement in launching a prestigious dance academy with branches across India.

However, not everyone was kind. Murmurs began to spread through parts of the crowd as her evident baby bump became noticeable beneath the saree folds.

Whispering Voices:

"Businesswoman ban rahi hain, par maa banne ka bhi shauk chhod nahi sakti(Becoming a businesswoman, but can't give up her passion of becoming a mother?)"

"Abhi academy kholi hai aur abhi se baby planning? Kaise sambhalegi yeh sab(Just opened the academy and already planning a baby? How will you handle all this?)"

"Hero ki wife hone ka kuch alag hi confidence hai lagta hai(There seems to be a different confidence in being the hero's wife.)"

Ranbir, standing a few steps behind her, clenched his fists as he overheard the whispers. His jaw tightened, but before he could step forward to defend his wife, Prachi took control of the moment with poise.

She turned toward the murmuring crowd with a serene smile, her eyes filled with pride instead of shame. Her voice was firm yet graceful as she spoke into the microphone.

Prachi: "Mujhe lagta hai aaj kuch baatein clear karni zaroori hain. Logon ka kehna hai ki ek aurat apne sapne tab tak nahi poore kar sakti jab tak woh sirf maa banne ka sapna apne dimaag se nikaal na de. Lekin sach yeh hai — main ek maa hoon, ek patni hoon aur ek insaan hoon jise apne sapne jeene ka poora haq hai

(I feel it is important to clarify something today. People say that a woman cannot fulfill her dreams until she removes the dream of becoming a mother from her mind. But the truth is – I am a mother, a wife and a human being who has the right to live her dreams.)" 

The whispers started fading as people listened intently.

Prachi (confidently):

"Aur haan, mujhe apne baby bump par naaz hai, kyunki yeh sirf ek parivaar ka nahi, mere sapnon ka extension bhi hai. Jo log yeh soch rahe hain ki main nahi sambhal paungi... aap dekhiye kaise main apne bacche ko aur is academy ko ek saath nurture karungi(And yes, I am proud of my baby bump, because he or she is not just the family's, they are also an extension of my dream. Those who are thinking that I can't handle it... you will see how I will nurture my child and this academy together.)"

Esha: Wah! Way to go! 👏👏👏

Ranbir's lips curved into a proud smile, his admiration for Prachi growing deeper with every word she spoke.

The crowd erupted into applause, and even those who had mocked her earlier found themselves nodding with respect.

As Prachi stepped down from the stage, Ranbir wrapped his arm around her waist, whispering near her ear:

"Tumhe toh mujhe aur zyada pyaar karne ki wajah de di, Mrs. Kohli(You gave me a reason to love you more, Mrs. Kohli.)"

Prachi chuckled softly, tears glistening in her eyes.

"Bas tum hamesha mere saath raho, aur mujhe kisi se kuch kehne ki zaroorat nahi hogi(Just you always stay with me, and I won't have to say anything to anyone.)"

Babita clapped from the front row.

"Mera Guddan toh sherni ban gayi hai(My sweetheart has become a lioness)," she said proudly, wiping a tear.

Raj (teasing): "Ranbir beta, sambhal ke... ghar pe tumhari bhi koi competition hone wali hai (Ranbir son, be careful... you too are going to have some competition at home.)" 

Dhruv leaned closer to Namrata: "Yeh Aggarwal women toh next level hain(These Aggarwal women are so next level!)"

Namrata grinned: "Exactly. Ab aage tum apne level thoda badhao(Exactly. Now you increase your level a little further!)" 

The day ended with laughter, respect, and pride for Prachi — a mother, wife, and dreamer who refused to let societal judgments dim her light.
