“YOU too should marry for money” Falguni mocked with a sly smile,

Anyone giving such a advice cannot be a good human being.

Every person needs self respect and that you have to earn. How can a gold digger ever earn respect?

one may survive without love but I don’t think one can live peacefully without respect.

And the mother thinks money is all. She attracted Sagar for that very reason and later discovered or she wanted love and devotion too.

If only Dhru was not in picture Atty could have asked her to move in.

With Dhru is picture it’s him who they have to think about before anything else.
Parents would have to agree for marriage eventually.
Let’s see how they come around.

Mrunalini has turned to be remarkable person on her own.

She left everything to disassociate herself from her father. Wow 🤩.

She has not take any of the bad qualities from either of her parents.

“I just want the money what he owes me”

😡

Like she is implying i dont want his daughter

For Sagar its the women. For Falguni its all about the money. Mru is just an object they throw around at each other.

Sagar, Falguni, Amruta. All of them are selfish people with no regard for anyone else.

Fragile egos

“I have never asked you for money! Yes I used the apartment for a few years I admit it has been the greatest mistake of my life, but please don’t tell Aai I am taking all your money”

She sent a text furiously

Sagar called her back immediately

Within a couple hours through her friends who acted as spies for her she discovered Amruta was the one who had told Falguni “Sagar is unable to fulfill his alimony promises because he has a grown daughter with needs”

Sagar had enough money to buy a whole fricking town, but Amruta wanted none of it shared obviously.

“Please tell your girlfriend to stop stirring the pot” she texted that night as she lay in bed

Aatreya texted her “How was your day?”

“Not so great, my mother showed up to yell at me

about stealing my Dad’s money”

“Whatt?”

“It is what it is… do you really want us to get married?”

“I do” he said

He knew none of this was easy

His mother was arriving over the weekend

He didn’t know how to tell Mrunalini about it

Now after hearing her shouting match with her own mother he was not even sure anymore

“I am hoping to go with Sai to Goa for a couple days with Dhru”

“Umm..”

“U can have him two weekends in a row afterwards sorry”

“I need him this weekend” he said sullenly

“Oh? Why?”

“My mother is going to be in town”

“Sudden plan?”

“Looks like it”

“I already booked a place for us too” she was irritated

“I promise u can use the bank employee preferred hotel for free”

“I don’t need handouts” she chuckled

“No its not… my mother wants to see him”

“tell her she can see him next time”

“Umm..”

“She will want to see me too next” she joked

“No” he said quickly

“Oh… Oh… Umm… is she going to be here to tell you what an awful idea it is to marry me?”

It suddenly dawned on her

“No” he lied

“I am sorry, she can do it in peace and quiet, I am bringing Dhru with me”

“I am not ready to argue”

They both hung up

The next morning he text pleaded

He is the only grandson, my sister doesn’t have kids…

“He is my only child I have to bring him with me”

“U are just being petulant”

“Did u want to marry me so you could get unfettered access to Dhru?”

He didn’t answer

After an hour

She texted

“I see!!”

“U see nothing” he was irritated

“This was a whole structured drama to get a hold of my child”

“Not true”

“Ur parents hate the idea of you marrying me, you care more about him anyway… it is better… if we”

“You don’t want to give me time to sort anything out” “You want to push things to a rushed negative outcome and blame it all on me”

“I am not… u can have Dhru this weekend” she said tearfully

“You have to give me time to navigate the mess in my family”

“You can have Dhru this weekend… I will pick him up Monday evening and return ur ring”

Feel so sorry for Mrunalini.

Unfortunately Atty too can’t be blamed much. Maybe he could just reason with his parents considering Dhru is great child given all limitations Mrunalini had.

Fragile egos?

Nisha, is it Mrunalini’s ego or insecurities or lack of confidence?

I for one think it’s not her ego. She is too hurt. First parents, then one friend who was her confidant and now she thinks Atty also is not into her but his kid. She is not wrong here to think that maybe he is not invested in her.

How will she pick herself up of this man dumps her ?

She is merely protecting herself.

at the sametime I don’t think even Atty is egoistic person.
he giving his parents time so that he can give Mrunalini and Dhru a complete family.

Both are stuck in this mess dono galat nahi h.. but the right thing here to do was let dhru go with M.. she need this vacation after all the drama with her parents nd she has done the reservations too nd A's mom's visit was unplanned.. next weekend leke jao bhai parents se milwane dhru ko.. A aur uske family ke issues me M kyu suffer kare.. upar se she is so fragile she returns the ring every second day😭 she DOES NOT need to take any bullshit from A's parents.. she doesn't owe them a thing.. nd i hope aisa hi ho😔
