After feeding Avni, her favourite poha. Both were sitting on the living area watching TV along with Amol and Kareena while Shwetha and prakash came home with few bags on their hands.

"Mom... Dad..." Neil said confused and went near them and pick their bags.

"Kya hai Yeh sab?" he asked keeping the bags on the table.

"Hat tho sahi... Phele bet ne dho..." Shwetha said huffing and sat beside Avni.

"Waah Mom... Aap kaise naatak karke chaligay thi...." Neil asked raising his brow.

"Hehe aise nahi hai tillu... Sach main..." shwetha was interrupted by Prakash

"Shwetha ji... Phirse shuru math kijiyega.." he said stopping her in beginning.

She then took the bags and took a beautiful white gown.

"Avni... Bolo kese hai..?" she asked showing to her while Avni's smile widen seeing that.

"Bohat pyaari hai mummy jii..." she said looking at the dress.

"Achaa... Tho Mr. Tillu Khanna and Meri Avni... Main tum dhono ko aapki shaadhi keliye invite karrahi hu" she said while they were shocked.

"K.. Kya?" Neil asked while shwetha and prakash looked at each other smiling.

"Tum jo bologo uss type ki wedding karthe hai Avni.... Tum batao kese type chaiyee..." shwetha asked stroking her hair while Avni looked at Neil.

"Kyu Mami jii.. Hum dhono type ki wedding karthe.. What's say bhabhi..." Kareen said while Avni's gaze shifted towards Kareena and her face depicts excitement.

"Vo bhi achii baat hai.." shwetha said

Neil /Avni : Noooo way / Yesss

They said in unison and looked at each other. All were looking both of them.

"Mom... She will get tired by everything... It will be difficult for her..." Neil said and then looked at Avni

"Nahi Neil... I am a strong girl na...." she made a pout saying to him while he chuckle seeing her reaction. He can't even able to say anything further seeing her cute face.

"Tum Ho Na... Mujhe sambhalne keliye.." seeing him silent she again spoke. Neil looked at everyone who gave a tease look hearing Neil.

"Teek hai Jaan..." he said cupping her face and shared an eyelock.

"Ahem!!" shwetha said while they looked at everyone and saw them giving a teasing look.

Avni looked down and was staring at the white gown. Suddenly her smile faded. Neil noticed her. They then engrossed in a conversation about the preparations. Later, they had their dinner together.

After sometime

Avni was in her room silently, sitting on the bed. Neil came there having pitcher in his hand and then he kept on the table. He then sat beside her.

"Avni..." he asked lowly while she blinked her eyes continously and then looked at him faking her smile.

"Haa Neil.." she said while he cupped her face

"Kya hua Jaana...?" he asked her

"Nahi.. Kuch nahi..." she said faking her smile not knowing that he already caught her.

"Mujhse nahi bologe?" he asked her while big fat tears started rolling from eyes. And she started sniffing and hugged him keeping her head on his chest making him worried.

"Jaana..." he said stroking her back making her calm while she lifted her face to look at him.

"Neil...tumhe yaad hai uss din jab hum white wedding toota tha..." she said while both remembered that day.

" Tab Neela ma ne mujhe itna sajaya....mujhe bohat achaa se ready kiyaa... Mujhe veil pehenaya....."  She said sniffing while Neil looked at her with tears in his eyes.

She become vulnerable whenever she remembered about Neela ma.

" Avii... Neela ma humari saath hai na Jaana... Dekho... She will be sad na... Seeing you crying...She will be with us always and forever... Not closer but in our hearts forever" he said wiping her tears while she nodded hearing him. He kissed her forehead and kissed her tears.

He made her lye down and took her in her arms, making her cuddling him. Her hands wrapped around his waist and his hands were surround her shoulder. Soon they both dozed off together.

The next day

All arrangements were started in Khanna Mansion making Avni more excited like a kid. Their home was decorated with flowers and fairy lights. Ali, Riya , Nanno all of them reached there. Kareena, Amol, Ali and few of them dancing while Avneil were sitting together. Neil got a call while he told Avni and went to speak.

After few minutes, what Neil saw made his jaw drop down in shock. Avni was dancing along with others. His eyes widen and he ran towards her.

"Avni.... We need to be careful..." he said stopping her while she pouted.

"But mujhe dance karni hai.." she said and again about to dance while Neil hold her by her arms gently.

"Nahi Jaan... This time pe dance you know na..." he said trying to make her understand

"Neilu... Its already 3 months... Ab tension leni ki koi baat nahi hai.." she said in a complain tone, making a sad face.

"No Avni... We can't risk jaan..." he said still not allowing her

"Neilu... Mujhe dance karne ka mann karraha hai... Mujhe karne dho meri Tillu Jaan.." she said while he nodded negatively and took her from there and made her to sit on the couch.

"Jaana... See.. There are two soul inside us na..." he said trying to make her understand

"Not in you... They are in me😏" she said angrily

"Exactly.... So what if our baby gets hurt while dancing?" he asked while she made a sad face again listening to him and started stroking her tummy. Neil was only looking at her and what he sees her is her sad face.

"Ek minute.." he said and left from there making her more sad. Avni was sitting silently pouting as like a kid whose mother denied to buy her toys.

Suddenly all lights got off and Ae dil hai Mushkil song started to play.

"Neil..." she whispered seeing everything dark

While the lime light falls on Neil and he was heading towards Avni. He hold her hand and took her to the dance floor. All were shouting seeing the pair. Avni was looking into his eyes and he was looking into hers. He snaked his hand around her waist pulling her little closer while her hands reached his shoulder and their other hand were tangled together. He started with slow steps making sure not to put those heavy steps and all.

Avni smiled ear to ear seeing him doing everything for her. He turned her slowly and her back hit on his chest while he placed on her shoulder and swayed their body slowly. Everyone were going awee on them.

They then danced together slowly. Avni then cupped his face, kissing his forehead, not caring about the surrounding. She quickly hugged him.

"Thank you Neil..." she whispered to him

"I love you Avni..." he said hugging her back

"I love you too Neiluuu..." she said and he broke the hug

"Anything for you jaana... Anything for your smile... Aur haa... Mujhe tumhara Vo puppy waala face se sab karwarahi ho tum... Huh! 😏" he acted making that face making her chuckle.

"Achaa... Tum dekhna aage tum kya kya karoge meriliye..😎" she said in daring tone while he blinked his twice hearing her which made him shock as well as afraid while she laughed seeing him.
