Next day, a room is slowly being filled with people for making a presentation. One in particular seems to have a great hold on everything, Mukti Guptha. Slowly the people start giving their presentation, and then Mukti came up, "Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen, I am Mukti Guptha and I will be representing Seema Creations. Seema has a reputation for creativity," Mukti began and after that practically swept away everyone with her presentation. At the end everyone was very impressed. A brake was called when Mukti was rooming around aimlessly outside when she saw a woman with Kuki having lunch, she approached them but was called back because the results were to be announced. "Ladies and gentlemen the presentations were very well but the contract goes to the best, Seema Creations – Ms. Mukti Guptha." Everyone congratulated Mukti, and they left. When Mukti came out the lady and Kuki were gone. "Patha nai kaun tha jo Kuki ka saath tha – I will ask her at dinner." Mukti too walked away.
In her car, she called Prem and informed him that they had bagged the 8 core contract. "Good work champ, hay what do you say we celebrate it?"
"At the party were the contract is go be sighed." Mukti completed.
"I will be ready, saath mai chalanga." Prem told her.
"Sure." Mukti cut the line and called Sharath. "Baiya I got the contract."
"Great job chotu – hay can I call you back I have to go for a meeting." Sharath asked.
"Sure – by." Mukti cut the line. When Mukti reached home she heard Kuki play the piano. The tune was mesmerizing and she stood there listening to it till Prerna came and shook her thoughts, "Ara Mukti beta tum yaha kya kar raha ho? By the way congratulations on you're contract."
"Thanks choti ma. I was just listening to the tune…" Mukti answered. Kuki came up to them and congratulated Mukti. Taking the opportunity Mukti asked her, "Di, I saw you with a lady today when I came out after the presentation who was she?"
"She is a singer." Kuki began, but Mukti interrupted her.
"O all right, I really won't understand then." She smiled, that was what Mukti was all about, frankly spoke when she felt lost. "I liked her sari though, a nice shade of blue in cotton." Mukti continued, "Choti ma I am hungry."
"Come I will get you something to eat." Prerna takes her away.
Kuki looks on, "Mom I know how everyone is proud of Mukti and her talents, she is brilliant. I could never do well in business like her, I really wish – still." She thinks sadly. In the mean time we see Shilandar sitting on a swing deep in thought, a flashback is seen were Mukti comes and takes a sip of coffee from Sharath at the breakfast table. They way Snaha had made him change his dress for a campaign and always insisted that they have a good breakfast with out phone calls. Kamini comes with a tray of tea, (it is two in the afternoon) "Aap kaunsa soch ma duub gai gai?"
"Bacho ka bara mai soch raha tha." Kamini smiles.
"Muja bi unki bahuth yaad ahti hai. Let us complete this campaign and then we can go back." Just them her mobile rang, "Snaha beta we were talking about the three of you."
"Mama Mukti bagged another contract a large one 8 cores this time." Kamini smiled.
"That is very good beta. How is you're work going?" Kamini enquired.
"Mama kam tho ho raha hai. It would take some time but hopefully it would be over soon, three months I don't know how bachi is managing. I really miss her mama." Snaha complained.
"Beta relax…she will be fine. I spoke to Prerna today morning. She told me that she woke up calling for you." Kamini Shilandar and Snaha laughed.
Shilandar got up, "Beta I have got to go, take care." And left. Kamini and Snaha spoke for some more time.
That evening Prem is yelling for Mukti when she comes down dressed in a,
and she also has , and
She does not look up because she is busy putting on her watch, "Arahi hoon ha baba, there." Standing in front of Prem, "Agai…enough? Chala?" Prem was stating at her, an innocent beauty was spreading through her like a warm chocolate drink. "Yes let's go."
