ADMIRING BOND

chapter 8

" Rey, aapne Aaira ko wish nahi kiya n...chalo use birthday wish karo..."
The family smiles seeing the two kids together, but Ansh doesn't like Reyansh much because he is sitting next to his sister at the moment.

Priyal takes Reyansh off her lap and makes him stand in front of Avni so that he can wish Aaira a happy birthday, who is sitting on Avni's lap.

" Happy birthday doll " Seeing Aaira looking like a doll, Reyansh says her doll and after wishing her he moves close to her with his small step and kisses her cheek to which Priyal's eyes widen, why did he kiss her

But others don't take this thing so seriously because it is common for kids to kiss things and people they like.

But what Reyansh says next definitely shocks the entire family.

" Mom, doll is so pleety, I'll marry her." He says in his babyish voice

" WHAT ? NO WAY " Reyansh just completes his sentence when Raj and Neil who were sitting together hear this and shout together this line.

And then both of them ( Raj and Neil ) look at each other and the whole family looks at them in shock as to why both of them reacted like this.

He's kid who's said just that childishly.

" Kya hua tum dono ko ?" Simran questions both of them on their reaction, But Raj, who speaks looking at the people, becomes quiet after thinking something because saying anything right now might hurt Priyal and Vishal.

But there Neil speaks

"I will not marry my Mannat to anyone."
Neil's words make everyone smile, the way he and Raj screamed everyone was scared but at this time everyone is seeing a father's love in Neil's words which is common.

No father wants to be separated from his daughter, but it is also a bitter truth that one day they may have to separate.
Because no matter what we say, the cycle of life is the same for everyone.

" Par Neil bhai hume humari hone waali bahu pasand hai..." Seeing Neil's love for his daughter, Vishal teases him by saying this to which Avni suppresses her smile to see his reaction.

" par Mujhe aapka ladka pasand nahi hai..." Neil utters this word on which everyone does nothing but smiles

" Now don't say this, Jiju, just a while ago you were praising my son..." Priyal further says teasing him

" Haan toh ladka achha hai, sanskaari hai jis me koi Shaq nahi hai, par sorry main nahi karaa raha apni beti ki shaadi, and this is my final decision." says Neil

" Achha! Aur jo tune Ashish bhai saheb ki beti se shaadi kar li, tab ye nahi socha tha ki wo bhi kisi ki beti hai..." Shweta as usual gives a reality check to Neil to which Neil looks at Avni who looks at him for an answer

Neela and Ashish also smile at Shweta's words, because once upon a time Ashish also said the same, but today his daughter is married and happy."

" haan toh...Papa never refused me....and this is everyone's individual decision and this is my decision, I am not getting my Mannat married ever." He again repeats the same things, earning a glare from his mother Shweta.

And there, Avni who initially smiled at Neil's reaction but his further words made her think something, what if he does the same thing that happened to her.
As much as he is becoming possessive towards Aaira, he can do the things she is thinking about.

But then after this little fun and laughter, everyone talks normally on other topic. Everyone knows that Reyansh said it just like that and Priyal and Vishal also don't take Neil's reaction seriously because both of them know how Neil is.
