It's Khushi's first day at Raizada House so as Payal's. According to the post-wedding ritual, Payal being the new daughter-in-law of the family is supposed to make breakfast for the whole family. Khushi wanted to help her but Payal insisted on making breakfast by herself. The rest of the family left the kitchen giving Payal some privacy to make breakfast.

"Come on Khushi, let's sit in the living room until Payal finishes breakfast," said Anjali dragging Khushi towards the couch.

Devi, Manu, and Akash were already sitting and enjoying their morning tea.

"Di, where is Jija Ji?" Asked Akash.

"You know Shyam Ji and his work. He suddenly remembered he has a client meeting outside Delhi early this morning. So woke up, packed his bags, and left. Didn't even tell me where he was going. Only said be back in a week and left"

"Anjali, don't be sad. Shyam will come home soon. You can call him from time to time." Said, Devi

"No Nani Ji, I can't. That's why I am more upset. He broke his phone last night. So I have no way of contacting him until he is back and buys a new phone". 

"Broke his phone? But how?" asked Manu.

"Mami Ji, actually what happened was we were sleeping and suddenly we heard a sound by the living area. This was around 12.30 at night. Shyam Ji wanted to go and see but I asked him not to because it was probably nothing. Then he said he is thirsty and will go to the kitchen and have a glass of water. But as you know I always have a water canister in the room. But then he claimed it was cold so he needed a warm glass of water and left the room. After 5-10 mins he came back but was so angry. When I asked him what happened, he shouted nothing and threw his phone away in anger."

Khushi who was listening to Anjali knew the exact story. The best part is Shyam actually helped them by breaking his own phone. She needs to pass this news to Arnav but how. She can't just leave suddenly and go to Arnav's room. What will these people think of her? That's when Anjali called Khushi,

"I just remembered, I have something for you Khushi. Can you come with me to my room?"

"Sure Anjali Di, let's go". 

They were in Anjali's room. Khushi sat on the bed while Anjali was looking for something inside her wardrobe.

"Di, good morning. How are you feeling today" Arnav entered the room wearing a maroon shirt, a black tie which was loosely hanging around his neck, a black waistcoat, and a black suit pant. His shirt sleeves were up and Khushi was mesmerized. He was indeed looking like a Greek God. God must have taken his own sweet time while creating this man. He was the epitome of perfect looks. Dressed to kill and even his personality has its own aura. She was so lost and didn't realize she was ogling him.

"Take a picture, It will last longer" Whispered Arnav standing next to Khushi bringing her back to reality. She got embarrassed was an understatement. Khushi looked like a tomato.

Although Anjali missed Khushi ogling her brother, she didn't miss the part where Arnav whispered something to Khushi that made her blush like a tomato. She didn't know what he said but she was happy with the progress of their relationship. She cannot let go of this chance to tease her brother. After all, Arnav hardly gave the chance to do so.

"I didn't know my brother had it in him"

"Had it in me?" Questioned confused Arnav.

"I mean, Chote, it only took you what 2 seconds? Impressive, very impressive"
