"I just got the idea to thank his mother, Dad..."

"Oh..."

"Yeah, I will get her number from Arvind uncle"

Taking his mobile, Shashi dictated it and left home. Khushi typed it on her mobile and dialed his number. Arvind attended the call.

"Inspector Arvind speaking," he said.

"I'm Khushi speaking" she chuckled.

"Khushi beta..."

"I got your number from Dad"

"Oh... tell me beta"

"Uncle, send me aunt's number"

"Yeah, sure"

"Thank you, uncle"

"Bye, beta"

Arvind disconnected the call and looked at Ratna who was sitting next to him.

"Khushi asked your number," he said, sending it to Khushi.

"Yeah, I too want her number," Ratna said.

Arvind was about to tell Khushi's number to Ratna, but Ratna got a call from an unknown number. She showed her mobile to Arvind.

"Yeah, it is Khushi's number..." he said.

Ratna attended the call.

"Who is this?" she asked smiling at Arvind.

"Aunty, this is Khushi"

"Khushiiii... you? What a surprise...! How did you get my number?"

"I got it from Arvind uncle..."

"Oh, he should have come to your house to meet your father," Ratna said looking at Arvind who chuckled.

"No, aunty... I called him, getting his number from Dad"

"Oh... nice... how are you?"

"Super happy..." she chuckled.

"You sound happy..."

"Why not? I got what I wanted..."

"What did you get?" She frowned.

"Notes from Arnav..."

"Did he give it to you?"

"It was you who insisted him to give it to me... then how won't he give it to me? After all, he is Mumma's boy" she laughed.

Ratna looked at Arvind dumbfounded. He raised his brows like, WHAT? She turned the speaker on.

"Did he say that?"

"Haan, he told me, you asked him to give me the notes. I called you to thank you for asking him to give it to me and made him to be friend with me..."

"Wait, wait... FRIEND? Did he say that?"

"He didn't say that but I guessed it... if he talks to me smoothly all of a sudden changing his mind means, it must be because of you..."

"No beta... I didn't insist him..." Ratna broke the egg.

"Whaaat? Didn't you insist on him? But he said so..."

"Sorry beta, we don't insist him for anything. Even though we do, he won't listen to us but does only what HE (stressing) wants"

"Then what about the lunch?"

"What lunch?"

"Didn't you send me lunch too?"

"Lunch? No..."

"He brought me lunch and said you sent it for me..."

Ratna raised her brows thoughtfully looking at Arvind.
