After the guests leave only Goenkas and Birla siblings are left, so Akshara informs them that Reem delivered the wedding photographs today so they all get excited and sit down while Vansh connects the pen drive to the TV and dims the light. Abhi is sitting on a sofa with Avni in his lap and Akshara is on the armrest holding his hand.
As they see the photos and play the videos both Abhimanyu and Akshara get emotional. Akshara aqueezes his hand and Abhimanyu places a kiss on her temple. The Goenkas and the Birlas leave after giving their gifts to Avni.
Mamma come let's open the gifts.
First let's all get changed and comfortable then you will go to sleep because it's already late and tomorrow you have to go to school.
Mamma please. Papa please tell Mamma that we will open gifts first.
Avni first go with mamma she will change your clothes and it's late baby, mamma is right. (Kissing her forehead).
Today I will sleep with you both. I missed you yesterday.
Ok and we missed you too.
Akshara gets herself and Avni ready for the bed and Abhi is in the washroom. Akshara sits on the bed with Avni in her lap facing towards her. Avni hugs her mother tight placing her face on his chest. Abhi comes out of the washroom drying his hair.
Mamma I had so much fun. You are the best.
Yes you are the best mamma says Abhi kissing both their foreheads and lies on the bed with his head in Akshara's lap scrolling through the phone.
Mamma can I ask you something?
Ofcourse sweetheart. (Caressing her hair)
Mamma if I have a sister will you love her more than me?
Abhimanyu sits up on the bed with a jerk and takes Avni is his lap.
Never Avi I can never love anybody more than you.
Avni what's wrong you have been behaving like this since you came back?
Papa will you still love me?
Ofcourse Avni. You don't know what you mean to me, to us. You are our everything.
Avi please tell me why did you ask this question suddenly? Did your friends say anything?
No mamma. I asked maasi that why doesn't she like you. She said your mamma used to love you more than her that's why.
Akshu, she is never going to Goenka House for a night stay ever and I mean it.
But why Papa.
Nothing Avi come let's go to sleep. I will talk to papa.
Avni did she say something about the party too? Is that why you were upset?
Avni narrates the whole incident to her parents and Abhi clenches his fist in anger. Akshara signals him not to react and pats Avni to sleep, kissing her forehead.
Akshu I am not listening to you on this I have made my decision. Do you know how upset she was about the party?
Abhi it's ok relax.
No its not. What if you wouldn't have planned this surprise? Her day would have been ruined.
I understand Abhi. I am so fed up of Aarohi. I agreed for the night stay only because she was not their.
I hate her. You didn't see the look on Avni's face when she questioned me about the party.
Akshara gets down from the bed and goes to sit on his side hugging him.
