Hetal was planning the karva chauth festival along with Dolly and Natasha, while the men were lounging in the sitting area.
"Hetal Bhabi, what do you do for Karva Chauth. I only remember the ones that we had at home when Ma, Bade Ma and Chachi did the Karva Chauth. I remember Papa always stayed home with Ma, along with Chachu and Bade Papa. Daama would wake the ladies early, Kaki and Daama would make food for the evening. There was Pooja in the evening, then Mumma and Papa would feed each other at the same time." said Natasha remembering her family.
"Did you not go to your extended family events for Karva Chauth?" asked Dolly
"No. Nanu was very orthodox so we would didn't go there. And afterwards, it was just Daama and I." said Natasha
"Hetal, what are you planning?" asked Amrish
"Just figuring out Karva Chauth. As it will be Dolly's and Natasha's first Karva Chauth, I want it to be special." said Hetal
"Bhabi, I don't want Natasha to fast for Karva Chauth." interrupted Dhawal
"But why?" asked Natasha confused at his refusal. "Why wouldn't you want me to fast for your long life?"
"Natasha, you're taking this the wrong way. The reason I don't want you to fast is your kidney. You shouldn't get dehydrated. You need to be drinking water throughout the day." said Dhawal
"Dhawal! Don't bring my kidney into this. I am healthy!" argued Natasha.
Dhawal rubbed his eyes, and looked at his brothers who were laughing at his predictament. "You two are enjoying this too much"
"That is true. I am loving this predictament of yours. Your wife is as stubborn as you." laughed Chirag.
"Dhawal, it's only one day. I am going to fast. And you are not going to interfere." ordered Natasha.
"But Natasha-" argued Dhawal
"Not one word otherwise, I will go stay with Daama. You will let me do this. I want to do this." said Natasha.
'Fine! Do whatever! You're not going to listen to me are you?" yelled Dhawal as he stalked off towards their room.
Natasha shook her head, and said, "Don't worry. I will check on him" as she followed him.
Dhawal was pacing in their room, grabbing the pillows off the bed and throwing them around. Natasha stood in front of him, and he ignored her, and moved around her. After he around a few times, Natasha got annoyed and pushed him onto the bed, and followed him onto it. She sat on his stomach and held his wrists above his head.
"What do you think you're doing, Natasha? I am angry at you?" said Dhawal.
"I want to talk. I need you to listen to me without anger. Please." Natasha
"Natasha, get off me. I don't want to talk." said Dhawal
"But I want to. Please." Natasha begged.
"Fine. Get off me." said Dhawal holding her waist.
"Nope. I like where I am. We are going to talk and you are going to listen."
"Fine. Talk." ordered Dhawal
"I promise I will take it easy. If I find that I am getting unwell, I promise I will drink water. I want to do it. For you. For your health and long life. Please.
"Natasha, you need to be careful. I need you. I can't take a chance with your health. I won't! You can get angry with me. Yell at me. I don't care. I won't compromise with your health." stated Dhawal tightening his fingers around her waist.
