Remember -"No emoji or Asking about next update or update soon will be counted as comment"

I need genuine comments that are related with story.....

Why only 1 person have to take the effort to complete the comments target..is it so painful to tap on a vote button and comment... I can't do it anymore...if I'll not get the response I'll quit this book and focus on the book in which I'm getting response...efforts need to be given from both sides...

If the target will not be completed by Wednesday...I'm sorry to say but I'll put the book on hold...till the time I don't get enough response...why to waste my efforts on something which is not at all valued....rest is your choice...

Ragini rushed into the cafe, her heels clicking on the floor. She sprinted upstairs, excitement radiating from her very being. As she reached the roof terrace, a warm smile spread across her face. The group sat around a sprawling dining table, her grandfather's unexpected presence stirring surprise.

Ishu's eyes sparkled, "Ragini di!" Abhi and Ishu exchanged a joyful glance.

She slid into the seat beside Yuvraj, his somber expression a stark contrast to the lively atmosphere. "Ye bhi aa rhe hai, aapne bataya nahi," she whispered in Yuvraj's ear but he was lost in his thoughts...

Yuvraj's distant gaze hinted at Abhay's words weighing heavily. Ragini nudged him gently... "Kya hua?"

"Haan," Yuvraj replied, his voice laced with unattentiveness

Abhay intervened, "Tujhe late kaise ho gaye aane mein?"

"Woh ek client se saath phas gyi thi... meeting thodhi lambi chal gyi bs isiliye "
She said shrugging her shoulder with a pout...

Abhay nodded thoughtfully. "Theek hai ....Kya khayegi? kuch special mangwau tere liye..."

"Kuch bhi chalega...," Ragini replied.

Abhi teased, "Diii, kuch bhi toh menu mein nahi hai."

The table erupted in chuckles. Ruhi playfully whacked him...

"Zyada jabaan nahi chal rahi teri."

Abhi looked at his brother for help but Rishi chimed in, "You need that."

Abhi glared,but than looked at Abhay who to shrugged his shoulders...

Abhi stuck out his tongue....to tease Ruhi....

"Ghar chal beta waha dekhti hu tujhe"Ruhi whispered in Abhi's ears..

The waiters arrived, unveiling a delectable dinner spread: steaming chole bhature, rich mattar paneer, crispy paranthe, creamy daal makhni, vibrant palak paneer, fragrant veg biryani, fluffy veg pulao, cool raita, fresh salad, sweet kheer and succulent gulab jamun. Laughter and banter filled the air as they savored each bite.

Abhi and Ishu's infectious giggles resonated through the evening. Their eyes sparkled with mischief as they teased each other. The warmth of togetherness enveloped them, a sense of unity they hadn't experienced in ages.

As dinner concluded, Abhi and Ishu's chorus rose, "Ice cream! Ice cream!" Their eyes twinkled. They wanted to it from vendor stood near the beach... And as demanded Abhay obliged...

Rishi's cautionary tone echoed, "Itna mat bigaad inn dono ko, Abhay, they're already too pampered." But Abhay's nonchalant shrug and warm smile dismissed the warning. "If granting their hearts' desires and witnessing radiant smiles is spoiling them, then I'm blissfully guilty," he thought, his gaze softening.
