Shaurya reached the place where Palki asked him to come.

He was surprised to see the place decorated with balloons.

Palki came smiling:Happy birthday Shaurya.

Shaurya smiled:Thank you.

Palki:How is my surprise?

Shaurya:You scared me Palki.Do you know how scared I was?I thought you were in danger.

Palki:I am surprised that the so called goon gets scared.

Shaurya:Bad joke.

Palki giggled.

Palki:You remember how we used to celebrate your birthday in childhood?

Shaurya remembered his childhood birthday with Palki and smiled.

Palki:Let us relive that moment Shaurya.

He smiled.

Palki brought the cake.She cut the cake holding his hand and fed the cake to him.

Palki:Kadoos!Can't you give me a small piece of it?

Shaurya smiled and fed her a piece.She smiled.

Palki:We will take a photograph.

Palki made Shaurya sit and sat on his lap.

Shaurya:Ahhh!You are so heavy.

Palki:Stop it Shaurya.I am not heavy.Even in childhood I used to sit on your lap and you used to cry.

They both laughed.

Palki:When you laugh,you look so cute Shaurya.

She pulled his cheek and chin cutely.

They clicked a photograph.

Surprisingly Shaurya embraced Palki.

Shaurya:Thank you Palki for making my birthday so beautiful.

Palki smiled happily at him.

Palki:Always be happy like this Shaurya.This is what I want from you.

He smiled.

Preeta went near Raghav with a bowl of Kheer.

Preeta:Raghav..Kavya has prepared very tasty kheer.Have it.

Raghav:My daughter Kavya makes the best kheer.But if you feed me,it will be tastier.

Preeta blushed.

Preeta fed him kheer.

Raghav:So tasty.But why did Kavya make kheer today?There is no special occasion.

Preeta:You forgot our son's birthday Raghav.Today is Shaurya's birthday.

Raghav became dull.

Raghav:I am sorry Preeta.I don't want to have anything from Shaurya's birthday celebration.

Preeta became upset.

Preeta:How can you be so stone hearted Raghav?You are treating Shaurya like your enemy.

Raghav:No Preeta.He is not my enemy.Because unfortunately that loser is my son.But I don't consider him as my son to be a part of his birthday celebration.

Preeta:Raghav!

Raghav:Yes Preeta.Unfortunately that loser became my son.But I don't want to consider him as my son.To be frank I don't want him to be there for Mohit and Kavya's engagement function.Because he is a bad omen.Such characters should not be there for an auspicious occasion.

Raghav walked away.

Preeta's eyes became wet.Shaurya who was overhearing it went to his room with a broken heart.

Preeta entered Shaurya's room.She was stunned to see him cry.

Preeta went near him.

Preeta:Shaurya,why are you crying beta?

Shaurya turned off his face and wiped his tears.

Shaurya:Do you think I will cry?No way.

Preeta:Don't hide your tears atleast from your mother Shaurya.

Shaurya's eyes got filled up with tears.

Preeta:You heard what Raghav said about you.Right?

Shaurya nodded tearfully.

Preeta held him closer and said:You are not a bad omen Shaurya.Without you,no function is auspicious.

They both hugged each other crying.

Rajveer was writing some thing in the paper.Pallavi came and sat near him.Pallavi:Are you busy?Rajveer:I am preparing for my presentation.Pallavi:I came at the wrong time.Did I disturb you?Rajveer:You can never be a disturbance Pallavi.He looked at her romantically and said:When I keep looking at you,I get encouraged to give a better presentation.Pallavi blushed.Pallavi:You are getting romantic at the wrong time.Naughty boy!Rajveer:Romance has no time Pallavi.I can romance you at any time.

Pallavi smiled shyly.

Sandy and Shaurya were talking at their usual spot.

Shaurya:Everyone will give costly gifts to Kavya on her engagement.But a taxi driver like me cannot afford even a costly artificial ornament.I am a fool.I should save saved money to buy a wedding gift for Kavya.Palki who came there overheard it.Palki went near them.Palki:Shaurya!Shaurya:Why have you come here Palki?Palki:I felt like seeing my childhood friend.So I came here.You have anything to tell me?Shaurya:No.Why?Palki thought:Shaurya is so egoistic that he does'nt want to share his financial problem with me.

Palki:Shaurya....even if you hide,your Palki can understand what you are going through.Just because I am not talking about it openly don't think that I am not aware of anything.And if you like it or not,I will always stand for you.

Shaurya looked at her emotionally.
