Epilogue
"Geet, Riya is on the line." Naintara yelled from the kitchen. Geet, who was knitting with the help of Dadi jumped up was pushed gently back into her seat. Maan got the phone and held it to her ear. Dadi giggled.
"Riya, how are you? How is the weather?"
"Everything is fine. The winter was long but now spring has come and I am looking forward to seeing you all soon."
"And Vicky? What is he doing?"
"He is annoying me. If I knew he would be such a pain, I would have left him back in India." Vicky snatched the receiver from Riya's hand.
"Don't listen to her Geet. She is the one keeping me from doing my work." Geet listened with enjoyment how Riya and Vicky bickered. When Riya had received a full scholarship for her MSc in Germany, Vicky had wanted her to take up this opportunity. But at the same time Vicky was sad about leaving his wife alone for two years and so had been over the moon when Geet had suggested that Vicky help her with MC's international enlargement in the area. Riya's uni was soon coming to an end and that would mean that both will return.
"Geet, Sohan wants to talk to his chachu." Geet took her little boy from her hand and held the receiver to his ears. In his cute baby language, he talked to his favourite person, asking for many toys on the return.
"And, I want also a sister from you." Maan burst into laughter when Vicky dropped the phone.
"Yeah man, now tell your champ when will you give him his sister?"
"Bhai, Dev bro is going to be dad again, he might be able to make Sohan happy."
"Tough luck, Naintara's last sonography revealed a boy. Now it is up to you and Riya."
"And you? Why don't you have another baby bhai? In fact, Sohan..." Sohan took the phone again.
"Ask you daddy to give you twins."
"What is twins?" the little one asked.
"That is when you get two sisters at once." Sohan, a usually calm boy jumped from his mother's lap and grabbed his father's legs.
"Papa, Sohan wants twins. No toy, no batman bed but twins. Pleash." Everyone present laughed at Maan's condition. Poor thing had a long time convincing Sohan that he would soon get his wish.
Khurana family was filling up. After Dev and Naintara's son Karan was born, Riya and Vicky had a son, too. Little naughty Ricky kept them all busy and surprisingly Adi and Pinky's daughter Neha was the only one he listened to. While the elders were happy for them, Sohan was the only one still asking for his twin sisters. That was why, when Geet found herself pregnant again, she had prayed and hoped for at least one girl. After eight and a half months, Sohan finally got his wish. Two identical girls came into the world, making Maan proud father of two princesses and Geet mother of two dolls. Knowing how hard this pregnancy had been on Geet, where she was tensed about the babies, he wanted to give her a special gift.
That was why, Maan, Geet, Sohan, Veera and Meera found themselves in a house, surrounded by snow. Maan and Geet observed how Sohan was playing with snow, loving the new element he had only heard of till now.
"You know, Maan, I always wanted my child to see this snow." Maan hugged Geet from behind and rubbed his cold nose on Geet's warm neck.
"I wanted to come here for another reason." He pointed at the snow on the balcony railing.
"See the melting snow? It reminds me that a harsh winter is passing and welcoming another spring. Just like we have gone through our winter, seen the spring and now are going towards out lives' summer." Geet nodded, fully agreeing to Maan. Sohan was her past, a past she cannot forget but Maan had thought her how to live with it. Even Nikhil had moved on with full support of Geet and was engaged to Muskaan. He often visited and had formed a special bond with little Sohan, very much like he had with his namesake.
After giving Maan a kiss, Geet joined her children in the snow. Together they enjoyed a bit of Geet's childhood, making new memories and dreams for their future.
