Pragya was laying on her bed in her room in Arora house reading a novel.After arriving here this noon everyone chatted with her and Abhi happily and even Abhi bonded with everyone well and they enjoyed the whole day.she couldn't belive how Abhi bonded with everyone and he became everyone's favorite within few hours.she was happy to see this bond between her family and her husband as she always wanted her husband to respect and love her family and seeing the care Abhi showing for everyone here.But when she was preparing dinner for everyone, Abhi got some call from Akash about some important meeting regarding his present album,though he didn't want to leave like this when he came to spend time in her sasural pragya insisted him to go as its just a matter of few hours and no one will take it bad.So its been 3 hours since he left and after spending some quality time with others for sometimes she came to her room and started to read on of her favorite novel wating for Abhi.After few moments she heard Abhi's car and got up from the bed closing her book and left the room to welcome him.
********
Abhi on the other hand who parked the car outside Arora's house got out locking it and cursed himself for leaving without having the dinner as he was dying out of hunger now.
''I should have listened to Pragya''though Abhi and was about to press the calling bell,but before he could the door opened and pragya stood there in a simple night dress with a smile and Abhi entered the house returing a tired smile.
''You go and fresh up i will heat the food''said pragya who followed Abhi after locking the door again.
''Okay.Everyone slept?''asked Abhi and pragya nodded.
''Haan.Its already 30 past 10 Abhi''said pragya.
''Okay then i will be back in 10''said Abhi and went to fresh up while pragya left to the kitchen to heat the food for them.After 10 minutes Abhi came to the dinning table only to see Pragya sitting on the chair waiting for them with table already set.
''Hey come on take a seat ''said Pragya with a smile and Abhi took a seat beside her and pragya started to serve both plates.
''Pragya why are you serving two plates?''asked Abhi in confusion.
''One for you and another one for me''said pragya and Abhi looked her in suprise.
''You didn't have the dinner till now?''asked Abhi.
''No.Abhi how can i eat the food when you left with empty stomach and more over i didn't want you to eat alone so i waited for you.''said pragya and Abhi looked her in shock.He can't belive the girl who he married just yesterday was waiting just for him without having the food while the girl he dated for the last 4 years never even asked once if her had if meal.
''Thanks pragya''said Abhi and pragya who was pouring water in their glasses looked him in suprise.
''Thanks?''asked pragya keeping the jug down.
''For waiting just for me.''said Abhi and pragya gave him a soft smile.
''Abhi i care for you and its not a big deal.Now lets eat''said pragya and both of them started to have the dinner while her words continued to ring in his ears.she cares for him and knowing this Abhi's heart skipped a beat for unknown reason.He didn't know why her care meant a lot to him and he was very happy to have her in his life,but for some reason he didn't want to think a lot about it as for the first time after daadi he is feeling someone's selfless care for him and he was happy with it.
''So how the meeting went?''asked pragya making Abhi to come out of his thoughts.
''It went well pragya.We have planned to release the album by the end of this month and i hope it will would be hit''said Abhi
''Don't worry though i am not a fan of your songs i know there are crazy fans for my husband ,so i am sure it will be a great hit''said Pragya with a smile.
''I knew it already Mrs.Mehra and you will be in my fans lists soon'asked Abhi with his arrogant smile and pragya just rolled her eyes.
''Whatever Abhi.''said pragya with a smile.
''Abhi i have to talk with you about something important''said Pragya and Abhi looked at her sensing the seriousness in her voice.
''What is it pragya ?''asked Abhi with concern.
''Actually i thought of continuing my job soon as i am not used to sit in the house without doing any work.so is it okay if i continue my job?''asked pragya and Abhi didn't know what to think about the girl sitting infront of him.When she could just spend her life going to shopping,having spa and have a luxuries life with his money,she wants to continue her job as she was not used to sit in house without doing any work.Abhi couldn't help but feel like a complete fool for even thinking her as a gold digger.
''Abhi where are you lost?''asked pragya keeping her hand on his and Abhi looked her.
''Nothing pragya.And yet if you really want to continue your job you can and i have no problem with it.As we decided yesterday we are friends pragya and you can tell me anything you want so dont't hesitate to tell me anything from now okay?''asked Abhi and pragya nodded with a smile.
''Good now lets eat and hit the bed yaar.I feel like a zombie missing my beauty sleep''said Abhi with a pout and pragya laughed seeing this and they continue to eat their food with talk and laugh.
***********
Abhi came out of the washroom after changing into his night clothes and find pragya arranging the bed.Then he laid on the bed and pragya too joined him as Abhi pulled her into his arms and switched the lights off.
''Good night Pragya''said Abhi and placed a kiss on the top of her head and pragya was suprised but didn't show it.
''Good night Abhi''said pragya and both of them drifted to a peaceful sleep.
***********
Tanu who was sitting in her room in her apartment threw the glass tumbler on the wall and it landed on the floor shattering in hundred of pieces.She couldn't believe Abhi thinking about giving a chance to his marraige with that middle class girl.She though after few days Abhi will come back to her once he cools down after their fight when she said no to his marriage proposal and will forgive her if she shed some tears like their previous fight.But now Abhi really broke all the relation between her and moreover he is going to give this marriage a chance and she can't stop the jealousy and anger coursing through her veins.Tanu never thought this marriage will never works as Abhi hated pragya for snatching purab from Aaliya and that's the reason she never took this marriage seriously.But after talking with Aaliya this morning she couldn't believe her own ears after hearing that Pragya was not the girl purab loves and even he consider pragya as his elder sister and Abhi was going to give this marriage a real chance.She understood she lost Abhi for good this time,but she was not ready to accept it and she was never going to let him go that easily.And moreover she will never tolerature pragya enough the luxury which she can't and she will let her have Abhi.She know what she has to do to throw that middle class girl out of her Abhi's life and she is going to exicute her plan on time.Abhi was his and she will never allow anyone to take something which belonged to her away from her.so she is going to get back Abhi at anycost and she decided to let her first plan in motion.
''Abhi when i can't have you,then no one can you too.You may decided to let me go,but i will not let you go that easily.Once pragya is out of your life i will make sure you will come back to me.Just wait and watch Abhi soon your new wife will leave you on her own''said Tanu with an evil smile and poured another glass of vine and gulped it to control her anger.
***********
The next morning Abhi woke up from his sleep and searched for pragya on the bed with closed eyes.But after few moments he opened his eyes as he couldn't find pragya and looked around the room for his wife.Then he took his mobile and looked at the time and his eyes widen in shock seeing it was already 30 past 10 in the morning and stood up from the bed.
''This pragya bhi na.Why she didn't wake me up till now,what will others think if i sleep for this long''said Abhi to himself and went to take a bath.After 20 minutes he came out and rushed out of the room to the living room.
Once he entered the living room he saw sarla and Rock star daadi getting ready to leave the house with some bags.But as they saw her sarla smiled and Abhi returned it.
''Arrey beta ji you wake up.Did you sleep well last night?''asked sarla and Abhi gave a nod.
''I slept well aunti ji and i am sorry for sleeping this late''said Abhi.
''Its okay beta ji.Pragya said you came home late late night so the sleep is necesary.so stop feeling embrassed as this is your own house too so you can sleep as much as you want''said sarla and Abhi smiled at her.
''Okay Auntiji.I will''said Abhi.
''Okay betaji,actually we both are going to the temple and pragya went out with purvi to buy something.so ask Bulbul to serve the food,she is in her room''said sarla and Abhi gave a nod.
''Sure Auntyji i will.But i will drop you in the temple aunty''said Abhu.
''No beta its okay.Temple is just in walking distance,so we will walk there.Now you go and have your breakfast''said Sarla and Abhi nodded then sarla left to the temple with.Once they left Abhi decided to serve the food on his own as he didn't want to disturb Bulbul for this small thing and walked towards the kitchen.But as he crossed Bulbul's room he saw her crying silently looking a book and he entered the room to know the reason why she was crying.Though Abhi wanted to be angry with her for what purab did with Aaliya,he know she is innocent in all this and after spending time with her yesterday he can never anger with a bubbly,innocent and lovely girl like Bulbul.
''Bulbul''called Abhi once he reached her bed and Bulbul immediately closed the book and wiped her tears.
''Jiju you woke up.Come on i will serve you the breakfast''said Bulbul with a smile and got up from the bed.But Abhi made her sit on the bed again and sat infront of her.
''Bulbul the breakfast can wait.Now tell me why are you crying?''asked Abhi in a soft tone.
''Its nothing Jiju''said Bulbul looking down but Abhi was not convinced.Then he notice the book and took it in his hands and opened the book only to see Purab's photo inside it and he understood the whole matter.
''Well now i know the reason for your tears.Its purab right?''asked Abhi and Bulbul looked him in shock.
''Jiju how did you know..?''asked Bulbul in shock
''I know everything Bulbul.Purab is my best friend and he came to see me yesterday but he saw pragya there and she told me everything.Bulbul i know you are hurt by purab and i know whatever he did is wrong.But i promise you Bulbul i will make everything right soon and i will unite you both as i can see how much my friend loves you.But for that i need some time.You trust me right?''asked Abhi and Bulbul nodded.
''Then stop crying and live your life Bulbul.I know its not easy but you can't be like this just coz purab.so give me some time and i will make everything alright.But till that i don't want see my saali crying,now give me your bubbly smile''asked Abhi and Bulbul just hugged him and started to cry letting her pain out.Abhi too hugged her back and rubbed her back softly to her some comfort.After few minutes Bulbul stopped crying and Abhi broke the hug and wiped her tears and placed a kiss on her forehead.
''So from now i don't want to se my saali crying over my brainless friend okay?''asked Abhi with a smile and Bulbul smiled through her tears.
''Okay''said Bulbul and Abhi stood up from the bed .
''That like my bubbly saali.But please Bulbul serve me food today otherwise i will die out of hunger''said Abhi and Bulbul stood up with a laugh.
''Lets go Jiju''said Bulbul and both of them left to the kitchen.

Pragya entered the house with purvi after finishing their shopping for purvi's college project.Once they entered the house pragya went to her room while purvi went to hers.As she entered the room she saw Abhi sitting on the bed with her guitar and playing a soft tune closing his eyes.Seeing him like this bought a smile on her lips as he looked so peaceful and happy lost in his music.She decided to hear his music without disturbing him,so she stood leaning on the door frame and continue to listen to his pleasent music.After few minutes Abhi finished the music and pragya clapped softly with a smile and this made Abhi open his eyes and looked at his wife who was standing near the door frame and claaping with a smile.Abhi understood she must have listened to the music and smiled sheepishly.
''So did you like my music?''asked Abhi keeping the guitar on the bed.
''I loved it Abhi.Its was so lovely''said pragya as she came and sat beside him on the bed taking her guitar in her hand.
''Good to know.But what a guitar is doing to in your room.Do you know how to play it?''asked Abhi and pragya nodded.
''Yea i know how to.My friend taught when i was studying in the college''said pragya with a smile which Abhi returned.
