LOL you're not getting my point. I said that even after using the father-daughter label for each other, HS-Mini's relationship was beyond that.
But Babita is fixated on labels and her own perceptions of a father-daughter relationship.....her saying today that Mini will be heartbroken was just too ironic considering she never spoke to Mini directly about this topic.....just made presumptions....no matter what HS-Mini were calling each other, wasn't it Babita's responsibility as a mom to atleast have ONE convo with Mini regarding this? But she never did.....and today she wants to pretend she only cares about how Mini will be heartbroken if HS isn't able to be her father? lol that is what shows how childish and naive she still is.
It's also funny how she was more concerned about HS breaking Minnie's heart and not how she broke hers.
As for the labels, how does she even know what kind of father Minnie wants or needs? Ashok was never around to provide any standards for her and it's not like Minnie is a small bacchi who will be pleased with some toys or chocolates. She's nearly an adult who has her own dreams and life aspirations. She'll need someone who can be a friend, and a mentor to her. And this is precisely why HS fits the bill so perfectly.
