They returned to Mehra mansion. Radha ma was again upset on both for ending up facing a bad situation. It made her worried seeing Abhi affected now. But Pragya was there to make her feel better. Pragya was now making sure he takes good rest.
Life seem better now as Abhi was being romantic towards her. She was enjoying her moments with him. What made her surprised was he listens to every single thing she says. He obeys every single order of hers. Sometimes they are silly. Sometimes they are concerned with his health to which he obeys obediently.
But in all of this, both realized they haven’t talk to each other about how they know each other. Pragya thought he only knows her only after marriage. Abhi found that she was the chef who cooks peace fries so he was thinking she knows him from the restaurant visits he had. But both were wrong.
It was exactly 10 months now that they got married. So both decided to share their feelings for each other together with how they know each other. They want it to be a special occasion when sharing about each other.
Radha ma thought of a mini celebration for their 10 months of marriage. She baked a cake & was waiting eagerly for both to turn up to the dining area.
Abhi “That’s a very yummy cake!” He exclaimed seeing the cake on the table.
Radha ma “Haan! I made it for both of you. Where is bahu?” Abhi “That’s so sweet of you Ma. She is getting ready. Actually we are going out.”
Radha ma in a low tone “Then it’s ok, we will have this cake in the evening.” Abhi “No Ma…we will be very late….” He said with hesitation.
Radha ma “Oh…that means you have planned a romantic day with my Bahu….” She teased him saying day by day he is becoming a romantic star.
Abhi blushed badly as Pragya comes down. She was amazed to see the lovely cake done by Radha ma.
Radha ma “Is it possible to stay for sometime to cut the cake & eat with me?” She asked them.
Pragya “Sure Auntyji! Why do u even ask like that?” Abhi “It’s because of me she is asking like that.” Pragya “What did you say Rockstar? Anyways nobody wants to hear what u say as it will be always silly.”
Abhi “Silly?? Do I look silly Ma? See for yourself how your Bahu calls me!” he complained.
Radha ma “Truth does hurt Abhi. It’s okay when she says na….” She said by chuckling.
Abhi frowns seeing both ladies against him. He was about to walk away when Pragya said “Kicchie….” Abhi’s face brighten hearing Kicchie from Pragya.
Radha ma “What’s that Pragya? Why does his face changes hearing that word?” Pragya smiles widely while Abhi panicked thinking what if his Ma knows about it.
Pragya “Nothing Ma…it’s just a new random word he came up with for his next song.” Radha ma “Really Abhi? Its sounds very childish like you.” Abhi “Ma….stop teasing me. Let’s eat the cake.” Radha ma passed him the knife. Abhi & Pragya both cut the cake with Radha ma clicking photos of them. They feed each other and then to Radha ma.
Abhi “It’s such a yummy cake Ma…we will eat this first before leaving.” Radha “It’s my pleasure.” They were eating when Radha ma asked “So when will I get the good news of becoming Dadi?”
Both choked hearing her question. They became shy hearing that.
Radha ma “Both of you look very adorable in shyness. But make the good news to be faster as I am feeling alone na….I.need a grandchild to play with.”
Abhi “You will get one to play with. But It really depends on your Bahu too.” Pragya stared at him for saying that way.
Radha ma “Please Bahu….for your auntyji, you have to co-operate with Abhi.” Pragya turned red hearing all this.
Abhi “Ma…not only that she should stop cooking lots of peace fries for me. You know every time she makes me eat that, I end up sleeping like a Kumbhakarna!”
Pragya “Excuse me! It’s your favourite right? For your information, you are the one asking me for more than 2 plates when I argue with u that one is enough.”
Radha ma “Peace fries? Wait, is that why you always cook in the evenings?”
Pragya “He used to eat that in evenings Ma. As in at the restaurant, he visits.”
Abhi “Haan true enough but now u can change the timing na…like in the morning? Why evening again?”
Pragya “You never said you are ok with morning. How would I know you fall asleep by eating that?” She asked with a pout.
Radha ma looked at both in confusion. She can’t understand what’s the big deal in this peace fries.
Pragya “You have to be thankful to it as that’s what made you like me in a way.” Abhi smirked hearing it while Pragya asks “Why are u smiling like that? Aren’t you grateful to peace fries?”
Abhi “Ya…I am…but you were very much secretive about seeing me….” Pragya “Yes, I don’t want you to know that I am seeing you.” Abhi “How can I not know chasmish? After all it’s a small world.” Pragya “I have been seeing you for a long time.” Abhi “Long time? From my restaurant visits right?” Pragya shook her head as no. Abhi “No?” Pragya “Nothing, leave that aside.” Abhi “No…you just tell me whatever it is.”
Radha ma interrupted “I don’t understand a single thing now.” She said making them look at her.
Pragya “Err…Auntyji I know him even before marriage. That’s what he is referring to.” Radha ma gives a shocked expression.
Abhi “I also know her even before marriage but not in the way she know me.” Pragya hearing it looks confused. She thinks how he knows her then.
Abhi “Actually I know Both of us are lying to each other!” Pragya “Yes so now you tell me how you know me even before eating my peace fries.” Abhi “First you tell me, how you know me even before seeing me secretly at the restaurant.” Both were about to say how they know each other when Radha ma “Can both of you just tell the truth? You can have your epic eyelock after telling the truth as I am having headache of thinking of how you all know each other even before marriage!!!”
Abhi smiles as he narrates as his version of knowing her even before marriage.
It was the time of his accidental hit of happy love song. He felt being like a person at top of the world by the accolades & popularity among various groups of people. But one thing bothered him the most. A anonymous letter which said his song only became a hit of the music but not because of the lyrics which was very funny.
He was annoyed with the letter. His song became a hit because of both his music & the catchy lines. Who the hell was It to comment on his song in this way?
He ignored the letter but he wondered who was the person who dared to tell him in this way?
Days passed, as mentioned by the anonymous person, his subsequent hits were also commented by critics. They always say his lyrics doesn’t have the depth as much as his music have.
Whenever he tried to change or improvise on them, he failed miserably as he wasn’t exposed to love. His understanding of love was not enough to get the lyrics that will make an impact on everyone.
It was the same period when his rivalry Rohit was rising & Rohit’s love failure made him popular among people. Subsequently, it made Abhi lose his position as his songs were also becoming dull.
In this period, he got curious of the anonymous person who had pinpointed his mistake of not having good lyrics. Who was the person? He searched for the person.
Radha ma “Does that mean the anonymous person is Pragya?” Abhi nods his head as yes.
Pragya in surprise “I thought you would never know it was me. I was very careful in not letting you know it was me.” Abhi mockingly “I am a Rock star, How can I not know it was you?”
Pragya “How did you know it was me? It’s impossible to find me.” Abhi “I got my ways to find. That’s not the issue here now. Now you tell me why did u even send a letter like that?”
Pragya said “Nothing much, I was just annoyed with the childish lyrics you had in your songs.”
Abhi “Nah….I don’t think that’s the real reason.” Radha ma “ Bahu, please tell the reason for auntyji. You are my pyaari bahu na….just tell.”
Pragya smiled widely seeing how cutely Radha ma was engrossed in their story.
Pragya “Ok Ma, Just for you….”She said looking at her before looking at Abhi.
Now she started to tell her version of knowing him.
She was at his launch party of the happy love music album. As a chef she was mainly at the kitchen supervising the cooking & preparations of the dishes. She was very efficient in her work that all the dishes were prepared were on time. It was now all left to arrange to be served by the waiters. She helped in it too. All work was finished swiftly & now she was very free. That’s when the organizer asked her to join the party as well. She was hesitant at first as she didn’t had a nice dress with her.
The organizer passed a beautiful saree & ornaments to her. Thank god it fit her in the most beautiful way too. She changed into it in one of the rooms at the hotel. After coming out of the room, she saw Abhi who was waiting for someone. Pragya didn’t know he was the Rock star whose launch party is being held.
Abhi “Oh…I’m Sorry, I thought my friend, Tanu is here.” Pragya “It’s okay….” She said walking away as he looked dazed of the beautiful girl passing him.
At the party, she heard his song played. She saw him singing it too. She liked his singing but was unhappy with the lyrics that could have been better. In the same party, she heard some people saying he don’t like negative comments. They were also saying he is still immature in accepting negative comments & improving on it.
Pragya felt bad to hear it. She felt like telling him, he have a wonderful talent not to be wasted with his mistake. Don’t know why she felt she should tell him as an anonymous person. He don’t want her to know it was she who tell his mistake. He don’t want to get a wrong impression of her. That’s how the anonymous letter was sent to him.
Radha ma listening to both said “Well, I feel both of you are made for each other now. She is always there to correct your mistakes Abhi. This is something not everyone gets. He is always ready to correct his mistakes when you highlight them. This is something that not everyone does Pragya….”
Abhi & Pragya were looking at each other lost in their own world of knowing how lucky they are as a couple.
Radha ma “I don’t know whether even they listen to me. Alright, I guess I need to leave them alone.”
She placed a note on the table before leaving to her room.
Abhi & Pragya were back to senses when they heard the phone was ringing.
Abhi “I will answer the call.” Pragya nods her head with a pleasant smile.
Pragya, Nowadays we are lost in each other’s eyes. It’s such a unique feeling.
She thinks as Abhi returns saying “It’s from your restaurant. They were asking for you.” Pragya “Oh…I will call them back now.” Abhi “You don’t have to. I said you are not feeling well. I asked them to handle whatever it is. Don’t you remember today is our day. I need you to be free for the whole day.”
Pragya shook her head in disbelief. He made her start a restaurant & when she needs to be there, he makes her to be with him.
Pragya “At this rate, I think I have to handover my duties to someone else.” Abhi “Chasmish, just for today na…..you know we need to spend some romantic time too.”
Seeing his innocent plea, she can’t say no to him.
Pragya “Wait! Where is Auntyji?” She remembered her.
Abhi “She went to her room. There’s a note here by her.” Pragya smiled seeing it as she asked them to enjoy their never ending eyelock.
Pragya “Okay…so now we are leaving?” Abhi never said anything. In a swift movement, he scooped her in his arms which made her blush.
Pragya “You are really becoming a romantic star nowadays.” She said as he walked out of the house.
Abhi “Thank you!” He replied.
Pragya “Tell me one thing, why do you love me?”
Abhi placing her in the seat “You want me to tell now?”
Pragya “Yes tell me before you drive!” Abhi “Why not later?”
Pragya “Please….tell now Rock star. I want to know right now!” She asked which made Abhi to grin at her urgency to know why he loves her.
Abhi “Because you had a random feeling towards me in correcting my mistakes.” Pragya “Excuse me! How does that make you love me?”
Abhi laughed seeing her expression of shock. He then said “I had a random feeling that you were the one who will correct my mistakes all along my life.”
Pragya “That’s a very random feeling. I started to love you for eating my peace fries with full of love. You know whenever I see you enjoy eating my peace fries, I had this random feeling that I will be serving it to you for lifelong.”
Abhi “Does that mean our random feelings are the reason for our random love story?” Pragya hugging him said “Yes my dear Random Rockstar!” Abhi irked “I am not a Random Rockstar!” Pragya “You are!” Abhi “No! I am not!” Pragya breaking the hug “I said you are!” Abhi frowns as Pragya says “You want Lippy Kicchie or not?” Abhi was annoyed of using her weapon now. It was always like this when she wants to agree with him, she uses her weapon of threatening with Lippy Kicchie.
Abhi “You are very bad chasmish….” Pragya smirked seeing him. Abhi “Ok…I am a Random Rockstar….but only for you….” Pragya “That’s better you agreed with me. Now you drive.” Abhi “Sometimes I don’t know why I am so scared of you”. Pragya proudly “You are scared of losing my attention towards you.” Abhi “Enough! Can we go now?” Pragya grinning “I already said you can drive.”
Abhi made a mental note of having his turn in ordering her too. Although it’s impossible most of the times.
He started to drive the car. Their ride of random love also started where both faced loads of care, concern & passionate love for each other in their lives.
