maas reaction to mausi maas suggestion

whenever mausi maa the burial churel talks about meera flirting with bunty, the face of maa becomes pale.

is it because

a) she thinks there can be a good future with pari
b) or she is aghast thinking how can a mother allure her daughter to befriend a person like bunty!

I think it is b, but many of this sequence are made to look like bunty should be with pari...
