Mrs. Malhotra was all furious when she saw Manvi with tears in her eyes. Manvi said with a sad tone "Lately he doesn't come home for days together and I feel all lonely and worried".
Mrs. Malhotra was so furious that she stood up from the sofa and went towards Uday. Abhi had a hard time controlling himself from laughing out loud seeing his friend's reaction. Uday was literally going crazy and he can't even think of ways to punish his wife for doing all this to him.
Mrs. Malhotra said with a serious tone "What does she mean by not going home for days, are you cheating on her, I know you people from the industry are all filth" she spat in a serious and angry tone. Uday stood up in a horror instantly and said in a hurry "No aunty, It's not like that, actually Abhi has been busy with shooting lately and I have to accompany him always."
Mrs. Mlahotra looked at her son and he shaked his head in disagreement. Uday was close to going nuts when he understood that both sister and brother duo were targeting him and he said "Believe me aunty, I am busy with Abhi and I am even helping Rahul with his work, That's it, I am not cheating or anything else. You know I love her more than anyone on this planet."
Then they all heard a loud giggle from the screen and looked towards her. "Wow, atlast you proposed to me. Do you even have any idea how long it's been since you spent some time with me ?".
Mrs Malhotra was happy to see Manvi all smiling and she said "I would have given him a good beating if it was all true".
Then Mrs. Malhotra said looking at the phone with gentle eyes "Why don't you come here for vacation then, even I feel all lonely here, your uncle will be at work all day and you know your grandfather is as busy as a bee".
Manvi said with a slightly disappointed tone "Believe me aunty I want to come but I have classes and couldnot miss them, I will come once I have holidays".
"Yeah, I heard that you joined college but I didn't get a chance to talk to you about it last time. How was your college and do you have any friends."
Uday felt all relaxed when he saw his wife and Mrs. Malhotra talking about other stuff. He breathed deeply and gave out a deep relaxed sigh.
Manvi said "I like college and it's environment and I have so many friends and they are all cool".
"Good, if you like it." Mrs. Malhotra was satisfied atlast.
"Now I feel a little less lonely, Whenever I feel bored, I hang out with my friends and we all enjoy, so it's cool."
"Good" Mrs. Malhotra said and she asked in a concerned tone "so when will I be able to hold a kid in my hands. I wanted you to have a kid so that I can play with my grand children".
Manvi's face fell but she immediately gave a smile and said "Well we are planning after six months, then he will be a bit free when Rahul takes up his position and even I will be free from college work".
Mrs. Malhotra knew that Manvi was feeling lonely and sad because she couldn't contact her parents and they didn't talk to her since their marriage. She always wanted a child but she couldn't get pregnant.
Uday was not concerned about children. He is happy as long as Manvi and he are together. He loved her so much that he will do whatever it takes to make her happy. But all she wanted was a child. He asked Shriya to help Manvi feel less lonely and some time with her and the latter treated Manvi with utmost affection as she was the one who treated her well.
Uday always felt guilty because he always considered himself responsible for Manvi's loneliness. She was a pure and an energetic girl with a lot of dreams. She has a big family and a lot of friends, but he made her give up on her family and her dreams.
Though he tried to persuade her to continue her studies, she didn't listen to him and stopped her studies. But later she started her studies back because of Shriya.
They spoke for awhile and waited for Mr. Malhotra and Grandpa to come home. They had to rush back to work the next day and they are scheduled to shoot from the next afternoon.
Mrs. Malhotra ordered the kitchen staff to prepare all her son's favourite dishes. She filled the entire dining table with dishes and it looked extravagant and delicious more like a feast.
By dinner time, Both Mr. Malhotra and elder Malhotra also came home. They all sat at the table and started to eat their food served by the maids.
Mr. Malhotra was silent even though Abhi greeted him. But elder Malhotra was all excited to see his grandson after a long time.
He greeted his grandson and asked about his well being. He decided to ask his son about marriage so that his grandson wouldn't get a chance to escape again.
He said in a little commanding tone "You are already twenty eight this year, when are you planning to get married, I want to play with my great grand children ?".
