Part 5 - Misunderstanding

Start from the beginning
                                    

Whenever Priya feels lonely, she would come to the terrace and gaze at the stars. Once the kids were asleep, she came to the terrace after locking the door. She feels some sort of warmth filling her heart as soon as she stares into the sky. In Priya's mind, the stars are guiding her and giving her a solution to her problems.

She came out from her trance when she heard Rajat's voice.

"Priya?" Rajat called. She turned back smiling at him. Rajat came near her and looked up at the stars.

"What are you doing up late in the night? Counting stars?" he asked with a playful smirk.

"No, I was not sleepy so I came here," replied Priya, looking at the stars. Rajat said nothing and stood beside Priya silently.

Just then Daija came and looked at them. She thinks, "Both look perfect together."

In KM

Natasha entered in Peehu's bedroom.

"Hi Peehu, today I have a surprise for you" said Natasha excitedly.

"Wow Bua surprise! What is it?" Peehu asks joyfully going to Natasha.

"See what is in my hand," Natasha then shows Peehu a beautiful white Princess dress.

Peehu jumps in thrill with amusement "wow bua, this is so pretty, is this for me?"

"Of course Peehu this is for your birthday. You like it?" asked Natasha happily.

Peehu takes the dress in her hand and says, "Yes, yes. I love this very much. Wearing this, I will look like a princess in this" She swirls with the dress. "Thank you bua". She kisses Natasha on her cheeks.

"But you will get this dress on your birthday, not now" said Natasha.

"What bua, I have to wait for two more weeks". Peehu became disappointed. She pouted her lips.

"Peehu we have to also buy the matching accessories too right" said Natasha bringing Peehu's enthusiasm back. She smiles.

"We will go shopping on Sunday and bring you matching sandals, clips, bands and bow, okay?" said Natasha, making Peehu get more excited.

"Bua can we go on Monday. We can go to the park on Sunday," said Peehu, hugging her Princess dress tightly.

"Okay. Done" said Natasha cupping Peehu's cheeks. Peehu jumps and says."Yaay!"

On Sunday,

It was a bright sunny day. Natasha is waiting for Peehu to come down.

"Peehu where are you" called Natasha when she reached Peehu's room.

"Here" said Peehu. Natasha walked towards Peehu who was sitting near the shelf.

"Peehu, what are you doing? Don't you want to go to the park?" asked Natasha. Peehu went to Natasha with a Blue and a Pink frock.

"Which one should I wear? I asked Papa but he was busy," said Peehu, asking cutely. Natasha smiled at her cuteness.

"Hmm...let me think. The pink one" said Natasha pointing to the pink dress.

"Okay" said Peehu and changed to the pink frock. "Peehu is ready," Peehu said, holding the edge of the dress with both hands.

"So, are we ready to go?" asked Natasha playfully.

"Yes," said Peehu. When they were about to go out Peehu squealed.

"Wait bua. I will come in two minutes" Peehu then ran.

"Arey, Wait. Where are you going?" asked Natasha but Peehu was gone. Natasha put her hand on her forehead and sighed.

Peehu went to her papa's study room where he was working on the computer while looking at the files on the table in between.
