(I hope you like it. Another take on drunk Pragya.)
Abhi was taking Pragya to the room. Pragya held Abhi's hand tightly.
"You know." Pragya told him. "I like you very much and I will forgive you."
"Forgive me?" Abhi asked. Pragya stopped and looked at him.
"This is not your fault." Pragya told him. "It's Aaliyah's. I am not angry on you." Pragya almost fell when Abhi caught her. He picked her up and took her to the room.
"Aaliyah's fault?" Abhi asked.
"Yes." Pragya explained.
"How?" Abhi asked her.
"You see she's loves doing it. She first caused problems for you and Tannu." Pragya explained. "Then she got you married to me. Now she's going to destroy Bulbul and Purab's love by marrying Purab."
"Bulbul what?" Abhi looked at her shocked. "Who do you love?"
"Arey." Pragya said standing up. "I just told you. You!"
"You don't love Purab?" Abhi asked.
"Purab? No. He's my little brothe-...woah woah." Pragya fell and Abhi caught her again. Abhi stared at her and Pragya smile. She hugged Abhi tightly. "You know.. I don't like it when you go to that.. chudail. I will leave after some time. At least spend this much time with me."
Abhi scooped her up and made her lie down on the bed. He tucked her in. He slowly kissed her forehead and was about to leave when Pragya held his hand.
"Don't go. Stay." Pragya told him. "I want to play."
"In the morning." Abhi explained.
"Promise?" Pragya asked. "You wont go to that chudail and cancel the plan?"
"No." Abhi told her.
"Promise?" Pragya asked.
"Promise." Abhi told her.
"Pinky promise?" Pragya asked.
"Pinky promise." Abhi replied.
"Cross your heart?" Pragya asked.
"Yes." Abhi replied smiling.
"Poke a needle in the eye?" Pragya looked at him.
"Yes." Abhi laughed.
"Good, now you won't leave me." Pragya smiled and lie down again. Abhi looked at hurt. He felt so guilty. Pragya was so sad and broken. He kissed her forehead again and left the room.

"AALIYAH!" Abhi fumed. "AALIYAH!
Hearing Abhi shout Daadi and her cousin sisters also came. Aaliyah came with Tannu.
"Abhi?" Daadi asked. "Why are you screaming?"
"Ask you grand daughter." Abhi fumed. "She ruined everything."
"Ruined?" Aaliyah asked. "What did I do?"
"What did you do?" Abhi shouted. "You ruined the life of Pragya. She's not the girl that Purab loved. It was Bulbul!"
"What?" Aaliyah replied shocked. "That means that the girl is still out there. Bhai we have to do something."
"Oh yeah.. we will." Abhi looked at her. Just then Purab came with Bulbul.
"You called us Jiju?" Bulbul asked.
"Yes." Abhi replied. "Purab?"
"Yes Bhai." Purab looked at Abhi.
"You will get married to Bulbul." Abhi told him. "You love her and you will live with her."
"Bhai!" Aaliyah screamed. "I love him!"
"NO!" Abhi growled. "You're obsessed. It's my fault, I spoiled you!" Daadi and her cousin sisters just stared at all that was in front them.
"BHAI!" Aaliyah cried. "You can't do this!"
"Yes. I can!" Abhi replied.
"Abhi!" Tannu tried to reason.
"You stay out of this, Tannu." Abhi gave her a stern look.
"Abhi what's happening?" Daadi asked. "What is this?"
"The wrong, Daadi." Abhi explained. "I will make it right."

Pragya woke up in the morning with Abhi next to her and his arms around her. Pragya stared at him in shock. She tried to get of his grasp but Abhi pulled her closer. Pragya just stared at him wide-eyed.
"Morning." Abhi said in his husky voice. Pragya was too shocked to answer. "Head ache?" Pragya nodded in response.
"You.." Pragya was interrupted.
"Shh." Abhi stopped her. "Sorry."
"Huh?" Pragya looked at him.
"For mixing the alcohol but also for everything. I know a sorry isn't enough but I will try my best to change everything." Abhi explained. "You told me the truth while you were drunk." Pragya just smiled in response and placed her head in his chest. Abhi tightened his grip and kissed her head.
