I promise Purab..,, I will be with u and I want my di and juju to be back in love like before.,,
Bulbul assured and gave a sweet smile.,,

That's like my friend.. so sweet of u.. Purab poked her nose while bulbul blushed shyly.,,

Purab continued,..
By the way.. I want to ask u something.,,
Before leaving Mumbai u said u want to say something important to me.,,
When I reached the place where u told me to come..,, it was fully decorated and dinner was arranged.,,
But u were no there.. I tried calling u and no response.,,

What happened..,,?? U can tell me now..,,

How can I say that.. on that day I wanted to propose u and confess my love for u.,, Oh no.. what to answer him now..,
Bulbul silenced her thoughts..while Purab patted her shoulder saying..

Bulbul.. are u fine..,,

Haan..Purab.. actually.. on that day only ma got heart attack and..and I had to rush towards her .. I'm sorry Purab.. for making u to wait there.. apologied bulbul and prayed god to help her anyhow to divert the topic.,,

Hey Purab.. u are here.,, ?? Purab and bulbul heard a girl voice and turned to see Aliya standing.,,

At once Purab panicked and stood up..

May I know who is she..?? Aliya pointed towards bulbul and bulbul was clueless.,,

She... She..is my friend Aliya.. Purab stammered.,, And Aliya coming forward smiled at bulbul saying..

Hello I'm Aliya Mehta.,,
Nice to meet u..

Bulbul smiled and said..

Hi.. I'm bul..
She is Pooja.. Purab completed cutting of bulbul to say her name..
Bulbul gave jumbled look at Purab and Purab holded her hand firmly..

Pooja.. hmmm..fine.,,
And Purab.. u didn't say that u have a girl friend still now.. Aliya smiled teasingly..,,
While Purab replied..

She is a girl...and my friend... But not a girl friend...,,
Said Purab to clear Aliya.,,

Oh.. sorry.. Aliya said and gave a calm look.,,

It's okay Aliya.,,
Purab said and they heard Arthi shouting.,,

Masi.,, There are lots of toys there..,, u know.. I enjoyed alot.. Arthi said in dinky voice.,,

Hmm.. really..u like the place.,, Bulbul said picking Arthi in her arms..

Haan masi..,, I love this place.. I want to be here for some more time..,, said Arthi with a endearing smile.,,

What.. it's already late and ur mumma will sue me.. heard it.,, let's leave now.,, Bulbul said sternly and Arthi looked dejected.,,

Hello cuteeeyy.. 😉😉

And ur??

Bulbul signed Arthi to answer her and she said
Hi.. I'm Arthika..

Wow.. sweet name.. like u.,, Aliya said pulling her cheeks,..

Thank you.. Arthi said slowly.,,

Awww... She is so cute.,,
Aliya said and ruffled her hair.,,

Bulbul gave a smile and Purab said.,,
It's getting late.. I think she should leave.,,
Purab asked bulbul to leave and she bid bye to them and left with Arthi.,,

How is dadi Aliya??.. Purab asked

Yah.. she is fine Purab.. and I came here to meet my friend.,,

Please continue.,, I have an important work.,, Purab excused and was about to leave.,,

Purab.. any clue about Pragya.,, Aliya asked curiously and Purab replied.,,

No Aliya..,, I'm trying for her only.,, I hope she will be reached soon..

Okay.. bye Purab.,, See u later.., saying so she left for the table she booked.,,

Driving the car out of the cafe.,, Purab saw bulbul and Arthi waiting for auto.,, He came out and patted Bulbul's shoulder and she turned facing him.,,

Come.. I will drop u both.. Purab said and bulbul first refused.,,

He picked up Arthi saying..,, it seems to be raining.. don't refuse.. just come with me.. saying so he moved with Arthi to the car.,,

Bulbul followed him and opened the front door and settled next to Purab..and saw Arthi sitting angrily at the back seat..,,

So.. someone is angry on me.,, Asked bulbul and eyed at her.,,

Haan.. I'm angry on u.. Arthi said and turned her face..while Purab smiled at them..

Baby... Ur Mumma will eat me..if we go late..,, bulbul consoled her while Arthi said.,,
But promise me u will take me here next week too.,,

Arthi darling..,, I will take u to more exciting places than this..,, y not we go tomorrow..,, said Purab and Arthi got sparkled..

No way purab.. u know I lied to di for meeting u.,, I can't take another risk.. bulbul concluded and Purab said.,,

U are a scary hen bulbul.,,

What..?!! Then what about u.,, U lied their that I'm Pooja..,,
Asked bulbul..,,

Ohh.. that one.,, U know who is she.,,?!! She is Aliya.. Abhi's sister.,..
Purab said and Bulbul got his point.,,

I don't want her to know that who u are and that's y I said like that.,,

I got it Purab.,, Bulbul said with a smile and she saw Arthi sitting sadly.,, She said..

Okay fine Purab.,, Let's go out.. but not tomorrow.. by Saturday.,,

Then...I will book tickets for u, me and Arthi to the doll world.,, Okay.. said Purab and Arthi hugged her from back saying.,,

I love u uncle..,,
And I love u too darling..,, Purab said and kissed her hands.,,

But remember Arthi... U should not say anything to Mumma or anyone in the house about Purab uncle and our meeting.,, Or else plan cancelled.,,

Promise Masi..,, but I need a ice cream now.. please.,,
Arthi said and bulbul asked Purab to stop the car near any ice cream parlor.,,

In the cafe.,,

This is not done Aliya..,,
U know how much I love Abhi,.. Riya screemed and Aliya asked her to lower her voice as everyone are watching them..,,

I want my Dadi to be fine..and that's it.,, Bhai and Purab are hunting for Pragya..
I assure u Riya.,, I will not let that betrayer to accompany my Bhai's life again..,, Aliya said and gave a side hug.,,

Remember Riya.. it's time for u to enter Bhai's life.,, U have to make him fall for u.,, Before that Pragya could appear...u should make Bhai towards u.,,
And I don't wish my Bhai to suffer again.,, Did u get that..

Riya nodded and Aliya ordered two cold coffees for them.,,

In Riya's home.,,

Riya.. what is all this..?? Are u fine.. what happened to u.,, u messed the room.,, ?? Are u fine?

Gauri rushed towards Riya..who was sitting over the bed angrily crying..,,

Mom.. that..Pragya.. that Pragya is coming back..,, I don't want to lose my Abhi again to her.. no mom.. I will never.,,
Riya cried hugging her and told what happened to Dadi and everything.,,

Calm down baby.. I'm there nah.. and if ur dad knows this.. he will never let anything to happen like that.. u just relax my dear.,, Gauri comforted patting her back and left the room.,,

Here in ice cream parlor.,,

How is this possible Purab..?!! Di will not permit for this.. I'm sure.,, Bulbul said firmly.. while Purab was enjoying the Ice cream and Arthi was licking the Choco bar.,,

Just give a try bulbul.. convince her.,, This start will definitely make them together.,, Purab tried to encourage her and bulbul gave a disassuring look.,,

Okay..,, I will try..,, bulbul said finally and Purab smiled at her.,,

She heard her mobile ringing and saw the caller ID as di...
Oh noo.. it's di.. she attended the call saying..

Di... We are on the way.. and will be there in 15 mins...okay.. saying so she ended the call without giving space for Pragya to speak..,,

Let's leave Purab.. di as called.. come on Arthi.. it's getting late.,,

Purab, bulbul and Arthi left in the car.,,

In Pragya's home.,,

Where are they di??..
Arvind asked sadly and Pragya replied.,,

Bulbul told they will be here in 15 mins..,, let them come.,,

Arvind laughed sheepishly as he knows Pragya is going to twist them today..

Wow.. it's going to be a great entertainment for me.. how dare they.. they left me here alone..and went out,.. he mummered to himself and saw Saratha entering the house as she went to the nearby market.,,
