'Where did this lady come from? Ever since she came, trouble has been coming to Kaik and Kaik's house ... 'said Anuben in a confused voice.

But the effect of his speech did not affect Savjibhai who was sitting on the swing in the aisle ... Seeing Mast Savjibhai in his reading activity, Anuben came closer with a cup of tea in his hand and said, .. '

"Did he start talking again ...?" what happened? Did Krishnavahu break a glass vessel again? ' Savjibhai spoke slowly ..

'It happened everyday ... what can I complain about? Today, she went to the market without saying anything ... I didn't even understand what work was done ... She also took Ronak with her ... 'Anuben said annoyed ...

'What happened? If there is work to be done, both of them have gone together ... Your nature is in a hurry ... Be patient ... You will know if you have gone to work .. '

"You have always taken the side of your son and daughter-in-law ... I don't hear anything ..." Anubhe grimaced.

'Hey ... Anu ... this is the air of the changing times .. we should learn to walk with it ... if we walk in front, we will be thrown away ... you believe in your son-in-law for your thoughts ... We have to change ... 'Savjibhai calmly explained to Anuben ..

'Just ... don't explain it to me now ... a lot of time and circumstances have taught me ... happiness has come late in life. So I want to save it. ' Anuben spoke lightly.

Savjibhai believed in enjoying life in retirement. That's why he accelerated his reading hobby and read for hours. But Anuben has become a traditional mother-in-law ..... rules of the house ... norms, customs do not show readiness to compromise ... Ronak did not want to be out of his sight that is why Ronak was not allowed to go abroad for a job ... Besides, he was not allowed to marry the girl who was studying with him. Could combine knowledge with time ... Ronak got MBA. Karavi was able to deliver to a higher position in a good company. Ronak is his world. So could not separate him from himself.

Krishna preferred to be a daughter rather than a bride, so he always listens carefully to all Anuben's words but never protests ... Don't let me reach ... but even Savjibhai could not understand the reason for going out of the house without telling Anuben today ..

'There is a question but it is not your fault ...' Dr. Verma said to Krishna. Hearing this, Ronak's feet moved from under the ground. This made both of them worried, but worry is not the solution to the problem. No question arises in future ... also thought .. and came back home.

Anuben was talking to his sister-in-law on the phone. Those words started hitting Krishna in the ear. Ronak also heard this .. Ronak, who was sad from inside, did not dare to look in front of Krishna .. 'God will do everything the same ...' Krishna said with confidence.

Ronak was busy with his work as per the routine but Krishna was getting restless. I don't feel like doing housework ... I started worrying about what report will come. Krishna was worried about Anubhan's temperament and conservative views that society and Anubhan would feel guilty for this. And why would he accept this? What will happen next? Ten days passed with a storm of many thoughts..and it was a day to go for a report. Krishna called and reminded Ronak. "There's a lot of work to do today," said Ronke. With a deep sigh Krishna put down the phone.

Immediately got ready and went out to take the report. Anuben was engrossed in his worship. Savjibhai was good at reading. Even nature seems to be predicting that there will be a storm in Krishna's life ... Suddenly heavy clouds came .. Seasonal winds started blowing. Seeing the report and not knowing anything special, she immediately went to Dr. Verma. The fear that was in my mind happened. Ronak's reports were abnormal. Seeing that, Dr. also fell into thought. Krishna talked about Ronak's disability. Krishna seemed to be overwhelmed .. Dr. Samej cried. Dr. Verma explained that the loss can be made up by adopting a child in time.

Strong in mind, Krishna came home. All talked to Ronak in the evening. The smile on Ronak's face disappeared. She lamented to Krishna, "I can't give you the happiness of motherhood in life ..." There was silence in the room. Krishna, who was very strong in mind, reminded Ronak to accompany him in happiness and sorrow. Provided the courage to face the situation that would come in life.

Krishna strengthened Ronak mentally with his thoughts, "Satisfaction in what is ... no regrets ...".

It was also necessary to put this at home. Ronak first thought of talking to Savjibhai..because Anuben was more emotional in Ronak's talk. Decided to talk to Savjibhai about this first. Savjibhai was patient and sharp-witted. He was not frightened to hear this but started thinking about what to do at this time.

"Bapuji, why here?

My father will never accept this .. he is very conservative .. he will blame Krishna for this ... '' Ronke said in a worried voice. And he kept staring at Savjibhai with many such questions.

Slowly holding Ronak's hand, Savjibhai said, "Your conservative mother who looks from the outside ... is very smart and sensible from the inside. She doesn't need to give any understanding in this matter ... don't worry. No one will protest in this matter ... "

"I don't understand, Bapuji ..." Ronak said.

"If the curvature of the ritual ... even though we are not engaged in blood, you got my inheritance ..." said Savjibhai and got lost in the past.
