After wrapping up her meeting Geet come back home in hurry...Servant had already put Aanya's favorite Pineapple Cake for baking in the oven even before Geet arrived...Geet had done with the pre preparations in the morning ..House staff just followed her instruction so that she could present this cake to her daughter at time...

It was about 1:35 finally Handas were home now.."Yeh lo...finally we are at home..Challo Aanya Baby come out of the car.." Mrs. Bajaj declared in high spirits...

" No I will come out only when My Mommi ll come to pick me up." Much annoyed Aanya resisted to come out...

But before any one could say anything to cheer her up..Geet was already there.."Aanya Baby c before you called your Mommi...mommi is already here in front of you..." Geet spread her arms to welcome her daughter standing in front of open door of back seat .

Aanya she had her head down but just hearing few words from her mother she raised her head , pouted her lips..."Mommi.." She cried aloud..Geet picked her up in arms."Mommi, Aanya missed you a lot."

" Even I missed you baby ...Sorry beta...I didn't go to pick you up.." Geet kissed her on cheek.." Okey lets mommy meet Nanu and Nani too ...and then you will get the surprises Mommi planned for you.."After soothing assurance from her mother cheered up the little girl.

Geet welcomed her parents with open arms like they were away from ages...Surprises Geet gave to Aanya included lots of new dresses...toys her favorite cake..What else a child wants to be happy ?... After a tiring flight and all the welcoming surprises Aanya and Mr. n Mrs. Handa had been much tired so after freshen up they preferred to take rest ...

Next Morning

Kapil gave whole information and the progress to Mr. Handa in land deal Geet gained..." Uncle I told you all about Mr. Khuaraana and his interest in the land...But it was our luck we won the bid " Kapil said proudly...

"Beta that is really a proud moment for us...but the information you gave me about the people were present in the meeting...unme Mr. Khuraana ka naam nahi hai.He owns the top most construction company and even if after spending years in UK...I know where Khuraanas stand in construction business and he was not there in meeting...As you told me about his nature what if he takes it as his insult..." Worried Mohinder took a deep breath...

Before Kapil could give any explanation Geet interrupted their dialogue"No Pa...its not like that...I am your daughter and I know how to keep rivalry and business apart..and that was not any big issue just a matter of a land...Unhe nhi humme mil gaya..." She assured her father putting hand over his shoulder...

" But Geet.." Mr.Handa was still worried...

" Pa ... Mr. Khuraana may behave weird but when it comes to business no one can stand in front of him and I have seen in just two meetings...Actually he invited me for lunch with family which I said no to that for the time being ..So as per his nature if we had sent him invitation for the meeting wo kaise behave karte patta nahi...So I personally called him but due to some pre planned programmers he was not able to come instead his chief architect Sasha attended meeting...I think u haven't checked the list of the people who attended the meeting..." Geet cleared..

"Ji Uncle same I was about to say...have a look over this..." Kapil second Geet and handed the list people attended meeting...

" Its good beta , if he invited u with family..it means he understand the potential of Handas too...so next step is too accept his invitation becoz it is much important for our dream venture...He lost the deal and if some way we try to ignore him...It can hurt his ego as according to his nature..Maan k sath Dosti ka hath he acchaa hai." As an experienced businessman Mohinder showed both cousins the right way to follow and they nodded their head...

" So Kapil its time to accept his invitation..." Geet said...

"Well that's fine but whom you are planning to be with you..." he teased

" Tum..." Geet placed her hands on her hips...

"Mee...!!! " his eyes popped out in surprise...

" Why Geet and family main tum nahi aate kya...?" She pinched him on arm ...and ran away in hurry...

"Aaauch Geet..."He was behind her..."you spoiled girl..." he threw sofa cushion on her but no effect...

Khuraana Constructions

Maan busy as usual according to his daily schedule when Sasha interrupted " MK , if you don't mind I want to discuss some points regarding the yesterday's meeting I attended..."...

Maan took a deep breadth and threw file he had on table...It was clear . something had spoiled his mood..."Sasha if I sent you in so n so meeting...it does not mean same meeting is so important for me... What is needed to discuss..I decide not my staff okey so go.." Wrath in his eyes scared Sasha and in a jiffy she was out of the cabin . But it was just Addi much used to Maan's seasonal moods .

" These stupid people they can't understand for me Diya matters not Handa empire...She hasn't responded to my invitation till now..Lets c kab takk bhagti ho..." He mumbled dialed Addi and asked him to give every minute detail of Geet/Diya to him..Addi had to do this work without asking a single question but he was much surprised...

Maan's phone buzzed .It was some unknown number..." hello " Maan responded..May be anything important coz only few close ones had this number...

" Maan betay..its me Daddi..." Mrs. Khuraana was on line...

" Daddi Maa aap !!! " surprised Maan said "Whose number is this and lots of noise behind you...you are no at home Daddi...? "

" No Beta..I just came here in New Look Fine Arts Academy..yahan per painting exhibition laggi hai...After dropping me here Keshav took the car to garadge for some repair..Hamara phone bhi usme he reh gaya.." Daddi cleared...

" Idiot apko chod kar car garadge le gaya.." fuming Maan said...

" Its not his fault beta...I told him becoz yahan 3-4 hours lag jaate Untill wo aa jatta..Humme kya pata tha k yeh itni boring exhibition hai...Let it go...Sabhi numbers phone main thay...ek KH aur ek aapka yaad rakhte hai aise he..mine phone is on silent isliye Keshav ko patta nahi challa hoga..Ghar kiya kissi ne pick nahi kiya...Apko kiya hai...plz send a car I am waiting..reception se phone kar rahe hai..." Daddi told whole incident to Maan...

" Don worry Daddi ...I m coming in 15-20 minutes ..Plz wait at reception okey..." saying this Maan rushed out of cabin...

In Handa House

Mrs. Bajaj already dresses up also had some plans to go out...Much surprised Rano teased her.." Mom aaj kis per Bijli giraane jaa rahi hai aap.." ...

" Randeep baby...shut up...I m here from days...Ghar main reh reh kar bore hoti hu...Even I know to ask you for company is just a waste of time...tum kahin nahi jaaogi..So I myself going in the exhibition..Near by Handa house ...New Look Fine Arts Academy...If I have decided to explore Delhi...to start with this is a better option...So bye bye..." She waved her daughter and left the living area...

Venue was near to house so she reached in 10 minutes asked driver to park and herself walked in ..On the other hand Mrs. Khuraana was waiting for Maan ...

" Hum he bahar ki taraf jaate hai..Maan udhar se he aaegaye" Mrs. Khuraana thought and rushed toward outside...

'

Mrs. Khuraana and Mrs. Bajaj passed each other almost at same time through lobby ...

" Mrs.Khuraana you are leaving..."Organizer of the exhibition stopped her in the way...

"Well Mr.Kapoor...humari health theek nahi lag rahi ..is liys socha ghar challe jaaye.." Instead of criticizing the exhibition Mrs. Khuraanagave this excuse to him...

" As you wish Madam ..okey main apko car takk chod deta hu..." He offered in gentleman way...

" Mr. Kapoor its okey ..hum challe jaaegay...you should look after the event..." Some how she get rid of him and was about to leave when a feminine voice back called her.."Savitri.."

"Who called me by my name...it is much familiar..." She turned back ...tried to recognize the back caller ...the lady came close to her...

" Leela..." a huge smile spread on Savitri Devi's face..It was Mrs. Leela Bajaj there...Mrs. Khuraana's old collage friend...Both of them were in same collage . Even Leela attended Mrs. Khuraana's marriage to top businessman Mr. Ranjeet Khuraana too...

After marriage Leela became Mrs. Leela Bajaj and shifted to UK...for some years there was contact between them but as time passed that contact also lost some where in busy life...But strong friendship always stays ..Like Mrs. Bajaj recognized her old friend in this crowd ...She hugged Mrs. Khuraana tightly ...

" Dekha Savitri ..tumhari yeh hum kehne ki aadat se he maine tumko dhudh liya in sab main..." She had tears of joy in her eyes..

" Leela after so many years ...how much happy I am ...I can't tell you.." Mrs. Khuraana cupped her face and welcomed her in same high spirits..

" Kaisi ho tum...When Mr. Khuranan passed away I was here but I got the news of your son and daughter-in -law's sudden death in accident sorry ..I was not with you..." She regretted..

" Its not your fault Leela...it was destined...now I have learned to live...I have two grandsons unko dekhte hai to sabh bhul jaata hai...Both of them are gems...The elder one he looks after KC in India and younger one he looks after overseas business of Khuraana Empire...they are smart...beautiful... intelligent ...and above all wonderful businessmen...I am happy..." how much Mrs. Khuraana loved her grandsons...was clear in her talk...

But when both ladies found their talk was attracting other people they decided to find other place..." Savitri is event ko goli maaro...I just came with my family few days back from UK...lets go yahan pass he hai mera ghar.." Mrs. Bajaj almost dragged her...

" Leela actually my grandson is coming to pick me " Mrs.Khuraana narrated whole story to her..." Why not you come to my place ... fir hum bhi aaye-gay...you are guest in the city ..humko welcome karne ka mauka do..."...

"Theek hai as you wish..." Mrs Bajaj accepted ..both ladies exchanged their numbers and addresses too...Before Maan could find his Daddi Mrs. Bajaj had left ...She had already met Maan at airport ...not this time..

It was bit strange for Maan to find Daddi in such a good mood as she was in after meeting Mrs. Bajaj..Maan couldn't resist himself to ask for the reason..." Daddi something unusual happened ...you are so happy .." starting car he said ..

" Unusual tab hoga jab aapki harkatain (activities) theek hongi " Daddi taunted "However today I met a old friend of mine after ages .."

"Oh that's good.."

" She gonna visit us...by the way Maan its time for lunch ...aap lunch karke he office jaaea.. " Daddi asked and Maan had no option other than to obey her...

" Ji Daddi " he nodded and both left toward KM...
