After half a day of shopping, Shri was exhausted. She wanted to go home but Manvi insisted on getting her a new hair cut. So she told Shri, they will have lunch first and continue after that. Shri nodded her head. Then they gave all the bags to the driver to put in the car and asked him to have lunch. They walked into a restaurant and ordered famous two bowls of Chicken Biryani. Shri thanked Manvi for helping her so much.
Shri : "You know Manvi, I never thought there will be any happy days left in my life after that accident", she became emotional and her eyes were filled with tears. Manvi didn't expect Shri to get emotional and she doesn't know how to console her.
"Abhi is the miracle in my life. If he didn't show up on that night, I don't know what would have happened to my life, earlier I thought Abhi pitied me but he genuinely cares for me and Preeti. Rahul treats me as family and you and Uday bhaiya......" she trailed off her sentence and her voice became a little hoarse. "I will forever be indebted to Abhi".
After a long moment of silence, Manvi said calmly, "Never this that Abhi bhaiya has pity towards you, and never think of stuff like debt and all. We all love you very much and we care for you. If you really feel thankful to bhaiya, do as he says. He is doing everything possible to be with you, and you have to work hard to suit him. Never give a chance to others to point at you".
Shri is trying to process what Manvi is saying and asked her " What are you saying?"
Manvi said "Bhaiya likes as you are , but others may say you are not suitable for him. So you have to become eligible to be his girlfriend" .
Just then waiter brought the hot biryani and the delicious aroma filled the entire place. Their stomachs reacted almost instantly and all their thoughts flew away. The waiter served them Biryani and they dug into their plates. They ate in silence enjoying the food and Shri decided not to ask any more questions and Manvi decided not to say anymore as it is their personal issue and she shouldn't interfere anymore.
Abhi called Shri and asked if they had their lunch. He told them not to stress themselves out and get something for Preeti also. She told him what Preeti has asked and she could not find such dress in the mall. She is afraid that Preeti will cause a scene in the house.
