"I get it, bhai sa might have made you the reason for this as your punishment but he delayed the wedding solely for me", Avyan said, though he was very disappointed with the decision, he trusted his brother, he would never do something that's bad for him...
"I agree with Avyan...", Isha said
"Of course, an idiot can agree only with another idiot", Ranveer said and walked away...
"Bhabhi ma... They must be very frightened hearing 2 years...", Avyan expressed his concerns for Anshi and her family.
"Don't worry, I spoke to her parents and assured them... but I didn't assure Anshi, maybe you would want to do it yourself...", Isha said opening her phone... "I forwarded you something, check it", she said and Avyan opened his phone and smiled widely...
"Bhabhi ma... you are the best...", Avyan said gleefully, Isha smiled and walked away... While Avyan saved Anshi's contact.
At night, after dinner, Isha spoke to Amruta and assured her about Anshi and her family.
"Okay ma... Go to your chamber now, I think he(Pratap) will need your assistance today", Isha said and Amruta nodded with a worried sigh... As soon as they came from Anshi's place, Abhyansh asked Bhairav to bring Pratap to the back palace and Abhyansh spent some good amount of time teaching a lesson to his father making him do all kinds of strenuous activities tiring him to the core making him regret his every attempt plotting against his wife, brother and ill-treating his mother all these years.
"Isha, why don't you talk to Abhyansh about it beta ? Your father-in-law cannot bear all that in this age", Amruta said with a worry-etched face
"Ma... If he couldn't bear it, Rana sa wouldn't have punished him in that way in the first place... and honestly this won't stop until he changes his ways ma... I'm sorry but I'm not capable of stopping Rana sa this time", Isha said, it's true she wasn't capable of stopping her husband when he decides something firmly...
Amruta nodded and left to her chamber while Isha left to hers. Isha got changed, then made some coffee for Abhyansh as he was immersed in his work and she knew he needed her coffee at this time badly. She kept his coffee on his side of the bed and settled on the bed on the other side turning her back to him, she failed to fall asleep, so she laid her head in his lap and closed her eyes.
"Are you mad at me ?", he asked her, she didn't say a word from the time they came back from Anshi's place... She opened her eyes and looked at him...
"Should I be honest ?", she asked, he nodded... "Yes... but I understand you... Avyan understands you too...", she said and he nodded...
"After Roka, Anshi will go to the States for her masters", he said, Isha sat straight hearing him...
"Masters ?? Is that her dream ?", Isha asked and Abhyansh nodded...
"It was, that bas**rd's family didn't want her to study anymore, so she dropped out... I got her enrolled in that course now... I'll ask Bhairav to give all the details to Avyan, let Avyan know, he will explain everything to Anshi and her family", Abhyansh said, Isha smiled widely at her thoughtful husband...
Abhyansh knew how much Avyan liked Anshi, or maybe loved her, and with his little talk with Anshi, he understood she needed some space and something concrete to trust Avyan, what better could it be than letting her fulfill her dreams and giving her wings to fly, freedom to choose what she wants.
"Is that why you postponed marriage for 2 years ?", Isha asked
"Well, that was just one reason, I have many... Avyan isn't ready now, he needs some time", Abhyansh said and Isha nodded...
"Hm... We have finalized one wedding, one more is left", Isha said leaning her head on Abhyansh's shoulder...
"Ask your brother to bring Ragini home next week", Abhyansh said working in his laptop.
"Really ?", Isha asked excitedly, Abhyansh nodded with a smile kissing her forehead... "Thank you Ansh...", Isha said settling in his lap hiding her head in his chest and he covered both of them with the duvet...
"Hm... now sleep, its very late and these days, you are neglecting your sleep which I'm not at all liking Isha", he said with a grim expression...
"I'm not neglecting my health or sleep for that matter, you are worrying unnecessarily...", she said
"Isha...", he called her sternly...
"Okay baba... I'll take care of it... You should also sleep... the light is irritating me", she said pointing towards his mac... He instantly shut it down, helping her lay down... "Good, now sleep", she said
"Hm...", he hummed dialing John...
"John, Finish the rest, changes at locations 134 & 289", he said and after receiving an affirmation, he hung up settling beside his wife...
"You want him to work at this time ? It's late for John as well Rana sa", she said
"You should worry about your sleep first", he said shutting her up...
