When Ador came back to Durgabari, everything looked the same. She came to realize that Dev did not sleep in their room but in the guest room downstairs. This revelation made her heart flutter. She thought maybe he really loved her and left his drinking habits. The dinner was good, all her favourite food had been prepared by the family cook.
At dinner, Bali arrived and informed the trio that since he wanted to see the entire family be happy and contented, he had booked air tickets for the family vacation at Singapore, after which they will travel to Bali and then return back to Kolkata. Hearing this Ador got annoyed and said, since she started a new job, it was difficult for her to get leave. When Dev heard her, his eyes narrowed. All the excitement that was, Ador just put an ice cold water in all their plans. Bali looked at Ador and said matter of fairly, " Well, your company does have a leave without pay option I believe..... Apply that, we will be away for a week. You may excuse yourself saying that you are going out on a vacation with family or you can say that your mother in law is sick" When Gopi heard Bali , she got angry and said," Why me? She can say - she, herself is sick. Am old. Kindly drop me from all these lies"
Ador just merely nodded.
Before sleeping, she wrote a message to her mom, " Had dinner, all is well. Goodnight "
The next day Amal, their chauffeur dropped Ador to office, wherein she talked with her boss, that she would apply for LWP, as she would go for a family vacation.
Vikas, her immediate boss, nodded.
Post her usual work, during recess she called up Ita, and told her about the filter and their plans. Ita advised her to take her medicines on time, no to get angry on small things and drink plenty of water. She also hinted that in this vacation both Dev and Ador could consider about increasing their family and considerof conceiving. Ador blushed. She then told Ita that Dev slept downstairs in the guest room. To which Ita said. he wants Ador to recover. She said "this option of going back to your in -laws is good. Give this relationship one more chance to grow." Ador disconnected the call.
Later she went back to Durgabari. Time flew and they started packing for their trip to southeast Asia.
