Today was the last day of the family vacation.

What did this mean?

Prem and Sameer could not see Priya and Preeti anymore. Priya didn't want to leave her Prem.

Priya woke up and packed her things. Sameer walked in and said,

"Hey, Priya. How are you feeling?"

"Oh, hi, Sameer Baiya. Oh I'm feeling fine now. What makes you come here?" Priya asked kindly.

"I just want to tell you something. Promise me you won't be upset."
Sameer said.

"Of course I won't. What is it?" Priya said.

"Well now that your Sadhana Jiji is our bhabi, you and Preeti can't stay with us. Do you get what I mean?" Sameer said.

"Yes, you are right. But there is nothing we can do, can we, Sameer Baiya?" Priya said.

"Yes, there may be one way. If you try and persuade Pritam Uncle, and I persuade Maa." Sameer said.

"I'll try. But you must tell what Aunty says." Priya said.

At 10:00am

Priya had already persuaded her Father and Mother if her and Preeti can stay with Sadhana, but their answer was no.

She couldn't do anything about that.

She waited for Sameer to hear what he was told by Mamta. Priya waited for Sameer.

Sameer came late and ran to Priya, but Priya turned around and looked down.

"You didn't ask, did you?" Priya said.

"I was looking for Maa. Where is she?'' Sameer asked.

"There she is." Priya pointed.

Sameer ran to Mamta, Anand, Dadima, Vivek.

''Maa, couldn't Dadima and Pritam Uncle stay with us in our normal house?" Sameer asked.

"I wish I could, Sameer, but Dharamraj and I have to go back to Rampur." Dadima said.

"Sameer, they have to go, I'm sorry. And so will Preeti and Priya.'' Mamta said.

Sameer made a face and ran back to Priya.

"Maa said no." Sameer said.

"Theek hain, koi baat nahin. (Ok, it's fine.)" Priya said.

Then, Prem came up to them and Sameer asked,

"Prem Baiya, why do you seem happy?"

Prem put his hand on Sameer's cheek and said,

"Why wouldn't I be happy? Priya, are you ready?" Priya nodded.

Then Prem called Dadima and he put his hand on Priya's wrist as he walked over but not before pecking her lips softly. Sameer playfully rolled his eyes at his brother's gesture to Priya, whilst Priya blushed.

"Hai hai! She's blushing." Sameer teased.

"Hey, leave her alone." Prem said. "Priya, I'll be with you in a few minutes." He added.

"Okay." Priya said sweetly.

Sameer got annoyed, so he grabbed Priya and said,

''Priya, why doesn't Prem Baiya understand?"

"I don't know. But let's just live with the fact that Preeti Didi and I can't stay with you and Prem." Priya said.

Then, Sangeeta and Sadhana came with Raju and Bablu.

Then Sangeeta said,
"Priya, for you." Sangeeta handed Priya a bunch of red roses. "It's from Prem Baiya. He told me to give it to you because he has to handle all this." Sangeeta added.

"Oh, how sweet." Priya said softly and sweetly.

Then, Sangeeta grabbed Priya and took her away. Sadhana followed.

Sameer didn't know what to do.

"I don't know what will happen now." Sameer said.

Then, he saw Rita walking down the stairs with a box.

Sameer wondered what it was, in case it was something she was planning to use against Priya. He was walking over to Rita until Preeti stopped Sameer.

''Sameer, come we have to go now." Preeti said.

"What does Rita have in that box?" Sameer asked.

"It may be just some ladoo, okay.  Dorget about that, and let's go." Preeti pulled Sameer along.

Rita nearly tripped and she tutted quietly,

"Uch, stupid!"

Priya, Sangeeta, Anjali, Sadhana and Neha were chatting.

"I'm going to miss this holiday. We got together, and had fun. I don't know how these days flew with games and laughter.'' Anjali said.

"Yes, all those games, were just so fun." Preeti said.

"And when I was given a bhabi (sister - in - law)." Sangeeta said and she looked at Sadhana.

"And when I found Priya." Prem said, and he touched Priya's cheek. Priya smiled and hugged Prem. Prem kissed her forehead.

Everyone laughed.

"But you know, Preeti Didi and I can't stay with you lot. It will be so boring." Priya said.

Then, Ram said that it was time to go.

Prem opened the car door for Priya to sit down. In Prem's car, it was Prem, Sameer, Preeti, Neha and Priya.

Priya clutched the roses and looked at the farmhouse.

She was going to miss that house, but she was going to miss her Prem the most.

They chatted in the car, but Priya was quiet, no word came out of her mouth, she just looked out of the window.

Prem looked at her, and adjusted the front mirror, so he can see his Priya.

He asked,
"Kya hua, Priya? Why are you silent? Do you feel sick?"

Priya looked and smiled,

"Oh no, I'm fine. I'm just lost in thoughts, that's all."

"Why? Is something bothering you?" Neha asked.

"Priya, whatever it is you are welcome to tell us." Preeti said.

"It's nothing such guys. Don't worry." Priya said happily.

Prem asked,

"Is your head okay now?" Priya nodded.

They arrived at Prem's house after an hour or so.

Prem opened the car door to let Priya out.

Priya stood near Prem and asked curiously,

"Prem, why have we come here?" Prem wrapped his arm around Priya and said by putting his nose and lips on her cheek,

(Let's call it 'a nose and lips kiss'),

"First you have to rest from a long 1-2 hour journey. I can see you feel a little uneasy, Priya."
Prem said.

"Theek hain, let's go in." Priya said.

They all went in and sat down on the sofa.

Sameer got his arms out and said,

"Home sweet home!" Everyone laughed.

Anjali pushed him down as a joke, as he was holding everyone up. It made everyone else crack up with laughter.

Sameer fell down on the floor.

"Hey who did that?" He asked. Priya ran to pick him up.

"Are you okay?" Priya asked happily.

"Haan." Sameer replied and sat down with everyone else.

"Ok, children, I'm going to get a few snacks for you, you all look famished." Mamta said.

Mamta and the other parents went in the kitchen to prepare something, meanwhile, all the others were in the livingroom.

Priya stroked the flowers Prem had given her.

Preeti said,
"Prem Baiya gave them, Priya. You know that, right?"

"Haan, janti hoon. (Yes, I know). Thank you, Prem." Priya said and she smiled at Prem.

Prem smiled and touched her cheek.

"Make sure to give all the best and care for those roses, just like Prem gives you all the best and care, Priya." Vivek said.

"Oh by the way, Priya. Prem couldn't stop crying yesterday, do you know?" Sameer asked.

Prem turned around and looked at Sameer.

"Kya? What do you mean, Sameer Baiya?" Priya sat up and asked interested.

"No, Priya. It's nothing. He's lying." Prem fibbed.

''Sameer isn't lying, Prem Baiya. We all saw you." Sangeeta said.

Prem started blushing.

"Are Sameer, chor yaar!" Prem said.

Priya looked at Prem,

"Oh I think I know why. Because he was worried if I wasn't ok, after what Rita did. But so, he has a heart for me!" Priya said.

Prem hugged Priya. Then Mamta came in with a halwa. They all chatted for the rest of the time, forgetting that Priya and Preeti will have to go.

After 20 minutes

It was time for Priya and Preeti to go.

Everyone stood up.

Preeti and Priya hugged Sadhana. Sadhana had tears in her eyes.

"Take care of yourself, Jiji." Preeti and Priya said.

"And you both took care of eachother too." Sadhana said.

Sangeeta and Vivek came.

"I wish you both would stay with us. It will be so boring." Sangeeta moaned.

"Yes, it will. Preeti and Priya have made this house so fun and full of joy. We'd be left alone." Vivek said.

Prem and Sameer came too.

Sameer hugged Priya.

"Take care of yourself, Priya. And your Mother and Father. And Preeti" Sameer said caressing her cheek in a caring way, in a sort of younger sister way.

"Haan Sameer Baiya. And take care of yourself and your brothers and sisters, espicially Jiji." Priya replied.

Prem hugged Preeti.

"Acha, Preeti, take care of yourself and Priya. Make sure my Priya doesn't get into any more danger. Thank you for the support before about love, when I first fell in love with Priya. Thank you for being by my side, Preeti." Prem said.

"Hey. It's okay, I'm glad you and Priya are together, Prem Baiya, you have made her the happiest girl in the world. And please take care of everyone else. You have no idea how happy you have made Priya. You have completely changed her." Preeti said.

"I will miss her so much." Prem said, looking at Priya hugging Rohan and Simran.

"And I'm sure she will miss you too, Prem Baiya. See you." Preeti said touching his cheek.

Then, Sameer and Prem switched.

Sameer hugged Preeti, when Prem came to Priya, he came close to her.

He put his hand on her cheek and they both smiled.

"I'm going to miss you so much, Prem." Priya said quietly.

No one else could hear and no one else saw them.

"And I'm going to miss you too, my Princess." Prem said.

Then, Priya fell onto Prem's warm and loving arms. They hugged for long.

Priya's head rested on Prem's chest, and her arms around his neck, whilst Prem had his chin on Priya's head and arms around her waist. He stroked her back and kissed her forehead a few times.

"I love you, Priya. I love you." Prem whispered in her ear.

"I love you too, Prem. I love you too." Priya whispered back.

Then, Ram and Pritam came arguing not seriously though, while coming downstairs.

Everyone looked at them.

Prem and Priya got startled.

Priya lifted her head up, but had her hands on his shoulders. Prem wrapped his arms around her waist. They both looked at Ram and Pritam.

"Kya hua?" Mamta asked.

"If you guys are arguing, then I am supporting Papa." Sameer said and he stood near Ram.

Ram said,
"This one doesn't want to stay with me anymore."

Pritam said,
"Nahin, Ram Kishenji. That's not what I meant, yaar."

Ram said to Sadhana,
"Bahu (daughter - in - law), drive some sense into your dad's head."

Sadhana walked over to Pritam and said,
"Papa, Mummy, please stay with us. I won't enjoy without Priya and Preeti."

Pritam hesitated.

"Come one, Uncle. Don't be a spoilt sport!" Sameer said.

"Acha, theek hain, we'll stay!" Sunita and Pritam said.

Everyone cheered.

Prem picked Priya up and spun her around. Priya screamed happily. Then, Prem hugged Priya, and peppered her face with sweet kisses, leaving her in a giggling and cute state.

Whilst everyone was cheering, someone wasn't so surprised.

Rita was standing in the staircase.

She muttered,
"Uch, Priya, you wait and watch your back, girl!"

Evening time

Priya and all the others were in the kitchen, chatting.

Then, Priya's phone buzzed, a message popped up.

Mamta said,

''Priya beta, do you mind giving these samosas to Rita upstairs please?"

Priya said, as she read the message,

"I'll give in just a minute. Let me just read this text Aunty."

It was from Oberoi and Sons Business Company.

Prem asked,

"Kya hua, Priya?"

And he wrapped his arm around her.

"Oh, nothing really. First day of work tommorow." Priya said nervously.

Anjali said,

"What's with the nervous face then?"

"Oh, no. Just...I don't feel like going for some reason. It looks too scary.'' Priya said.

"Don't worry, I'm sure the Managing Director won't give you that much work, Priya." Vivek said.

"And he can't do that anyways." Anand said.

Priya smiled and nodded.

"I guess you guys are right."

Then Prem faced Priya to him. He wrapped his arms around her waist to pull her closer.

"Don't worry, sweetheart. He won't give you that much work, seeing as it is your first day at work." Prem said. Priya smiled and he kissed her warm forehead.

Then, Mamta said kindly,

"Priya, please give."

Then, Priya said,

"Haan, haan (yes, yes), I'll give these to Rita."

Priya took the plate of samosas and walked upstairs to see which room Rita was in.

Then, she knocked on the door.

"Come in." Rita said.

Priya opened the door, Rita looked at her and made a face.

"You? What do you want now?" She asked rudely.

"Actually, I don't need anything. Aunty just told me to give these samosas to you." Priya said, and she turned around to leave the room.

Then Rita grabbed her wrist and shut the door.

"Priya! You are so annoying!" Rita said.

"What have I done now?" Priya asked.

"You will always have everyone by your side. You will always have Prem by your side. But don't worry, you won't have Prem for long, yaar, till he's all mine." Rita cackled.

"I think you are mistaken. Prem loves me. That is why he is always by my side. You will never be able to come between us. And by the way, Sameer Baiya saw you with a box today, what was inside it?
Priya said.

"Oh, oh. That! It's nothing. Trust me." Rita fibbed.

"Theek hain.'' Priya said and she left the room, thinking about the box.

That night

The night had come quick. Priya was in the living room.

Everyone had gone to bed. Prem was in his pyjamas, a white plain shalwar and the matching trousers and Priya was in a magenta long silky dress, covering her legs and a matching magenta silky ribbon tied up in a bow on her silky, brown, straight hair. Her hair was half tied up and half let out.

Prem was getting ready to go to bed. As he was about to go upstairs, he saw Priya sitting on the sofa by herself.

Then, Prem looked at Priya and walked slowly to her. He stood behind Priya, and wrapped his arms around her shoulders.

He leaned his head against her head and his cheek against her cheek. Priya put her hands on his hands, where he wrapped them.

Prem whispered in her ear,

"Kya hua?"

Priya stood up from the sofa. She  turned to face him and shook her head no, indicating it was nothing.

Prem put his hands on her cheeks and said,

"No, there is something bothering you, Rajkumari. Please tell me." Prem said.

Priya looked into Prem's eyes and said,

"I don't know if this sounds silly, but for some reason, I think Rita is planning something against me."

Prem pulled Priya closer by holding her hands. He entwined their fingers and held them in front of them,

"What makes you say that?" He asked.

"Sameer Baiya said that he saw a box on her hands this morning and he wondered what it was. Then, when I gave her the samosas, she was saying how she'll gang up on me.  I asked her about the box and she said nothing was in there. But what if there is something to do with that box and me? Priya asked worriedly.

"Priya, if she tries to do anything to you, then I won't let that happen. She can't harm or hurt you, because I love you." Prem comforted her. He pecked her lips softly.

"But, what if she does anything to you?" Priya asked anxiously.

"Oh my innocent child! She can't do anything to me. And I won't let anything happen to you." Prem laughed putting both hands on her cheeks and rubbed them.

Priya smiled innocently.

He got both of Priya's hands and kissed them, and touched her hair,

"Maine hamesha tumhe pyar kiya, main ab bhee tumse pyar karta hoon, aur main hamesha tumhen pyar karane ke lie jaaree rakhenge. (I have always loved you, I still do love you and I will always continue loving you). Theek hain?" Prem said.

Priya smiled and Prem smiled.

"Mujhe pata hai. (I know.)" Priya said touching Prem's cheek and running her fingers in his fine hair.

"Can I have a hug, a Prince and Princess hug?" Prem asked, getting his arms wide open. "I feel like I haven't had a romantic hug from you the whole day." He added. He put his head against her head in a romantic way.

"Are! Besharam. (Shameless). I gave you a hug twice today." Priya said pushing him gently and kindly folding her arms.

"Priya, your hugs lighten my mood. Please can I have one?" He said opening his arms.

"Awww of course." Priya laughed and jumped onto him.

Priya hugged Prem tightly and said,

"I love you, Prem, I love you."

Prem kissed her head and said,

"And I love you too, Priya. Now we have go to bed. It's getting late."

Prem got to the door of his bedroom.

"Priya." He called quietly.

Priya was about to go in, but she turned around and said

"Kya hua?"

Prem blew a kiss and said

"Goodnight."

Priya smiled and did the same thing. They both went in their room quietly.
