At the dinner table, Mausi teased Hiral, "How was dinner with Shivam?

Must have been delicious!"

Hiral blushed, and Hitakshi chimed in, "Don't tease her!"

Hiral responded, "Just let me eat in peace!" After finishing dinner, Hiral called Shivam. Shivam
greeted, "Hello, Hiral."
Everyone in the room echoed, "Hello, Shivam Ji!" bursting into laughter.
Hiral exclaimed, "Stop teasing me!"
Shivam, blushing, replied, "Alright, alright."
Mausi playfully said, "Dinner with Hiral must be delightful," as everyone laughed.

Hiral looked at Shivam and said, "Let's talk later," to which Shivam responded and ended the
call.
Mausi remarked, "Can't you talk at home?" Himanshu, always precise as an aspiring CA, asked,
"Tell us your love story," as everyone eagerly awaited Hiral's narration.

The family sprang into action: Hadiya fetched water bottles, Mausi headed to the kitchen,
Mayank arranged blankets, Hitakshi adjusted the lighting, and Himanshu continued studying.
Soon, everyone settled down.

And Hiral began her story, sit in a the spotlight, with her family listening intently. After 5 min
everyone sit in the room and hiral sits infront of all.
Hiral perched on a stool, bathed in a warm spotlight. Her family sprawl around her, eagerly
anticipating her tale.

HIRAL: (Blushing profusely) Alright, alright, I get it! You all want the scoop on Shivam and
me. Be warned, it's gonna be sweeter than your favorite mithai!

HITAKSHI: (Grinning mischievously) Don't hold back, Hiral! Spill the beans, moye-moye! from
stolen glances to that sparkly ring, we want it all!

MAYANK:(Eldest brother, ever protective) Easy there, Hitakshi! Give the girl some breathing
room. She's not used to all this public PDA.
HIRAL: (Swatting playfully at Mayank) PDA? This is just, you know, sharing my love story!
Now, where was I? Ah yes, back before butterflies did tap dance in my stomach...

MASI: (Eyes twinkling) Oh yes, tell us about those butterflies! Did they do a jig when you saw
Shivam, all black and grey, at your first dinner?

He looked like a Bollywood hero, didn't he? Just like "Ye to apna Shyam hai!" (Everyone erupts
in laughter, referencing Hera Pheri. Hiral hides her face in her hands, cheeks burning bright.)

HIMANSHU: (Aspiring CA, always precise) Actually, Mausi, it was their second dinner where
Shivam wore black and grey. Their first meeting was at Hanuman Tekri, remember? At that time
Hiral almost tripped over her dress trying to impress him!

HADIYA: (BFF, loyal and playful) And don't forget the rose, Himanshu! That single, perfect
rose that melted Hiral's heart faster than summer ice cream!

Hiral - Areee enough, let me tell you from the beginning but koi mujhe tease nh karega.
Everyone - nodded head in yes, with sarcastic smile.

Hiral - Okay, fine! You guys know everything. But trust me, that rose wasn't just a flower, it was
a promise whispered in the wind. And those chai dates, where we talked for hours till the world
faded away... those were pure magic!

(Hiral nods sheepishly, a shy smile playing on her lips. A picture of Shivam offering the rose
flashes on the projector behind her.)

Hiral - Mausi, it was April bloom, when Shivam saw mine photo and fell connection with me.

Hitakshi - apke pyar m gir bhai. Everyone laughed

Hiral - bolne to do, to Shivam ko hint of destiny pata chal gya tha. As fate would have it, this
photograph was mine's, setting the stage for a love story that would soon unfold like the pages of
a cherished novel.
Himanshu - inki balance sheet ki shuruaat hogyi.

Mayank - bike ko gear mikgye. And photo kha mili LinkedIn?? 😁😁😁 Everyone one laughed...

Hiral - The Alliance groups became the modern-day courtyards where stories began. Shivam told
his mom, and his mom to my father.

Hiral - Phir ek din mausi ne mujhe bataya, ki papa ka phn aaya th kuch bat Krna h. I called papa,
talked to Shivam.

Hiral - messaged, waited but no reply, in breking hopes she realised ye Shivam nh h.

Hadiya shouted like sunny deol shouted - yah to wrong number hai Everyone laughed.

Hitakshi said - bhai Aram se yarr, or 5 chai bnado.

Hadiya - chai (because she hates) said ok and jate jate said ki wrong kab kia tha?

Hiral - darling on May 17, 2023, at precisely 10:55 Hiral continue to narrating story about the
first message of Hi and Shivam reply. And avoid some information and blushed like a sunflower
in the first ray of sun.

Mayank nd himashu - chaiii????

Hadiya came with head and nose covered with clothes similar like daku n old Bollywood
movies. Everyone enjoying chai.

Hitakshi - hn hiralal complete your story we are waiting.

Hadiya - m bhi.
Hitakshi - we m hum sab atte h.
Hadiya - chai pine walo se m alg hu
(And Hiral narrates, pictures of their dates and milestones flit across the screen, each one
eliciting playfully)
Hiral with blushed and chai - so after continues chats and talks we first met on 28th aug 2023,
around 11:30 am he was at my home with his parents.

Mausi (taking a sip nd ask)- Phir kya hua?

Hiral – Mausi, we went hanuman tekri together around hills- it was great feeling winds are
usually cooler but slower than my heart beat.

Hitakshi with shayari - dhadakte hai dil to dhakne do, hawa chalti hai to chalne do. Or m to kehti
hoon mausi hiral jati h to janne dooo...

Hiral in flash back for a minute and thinking about the conversation with shivam

Hiral: So, here we are! Hanuman Tekri, the windy whisperer of secrets. Remember I used to tell
you all about my secret wishes at the top?

Shivam: (chuckles) Yeah, how you'd whisper them to the Hanuman statue, hoping he'd grant
them with a single, powerful monkey tail flick.

Hiral: And you'd laugh, saying I was too old for fairy tales. But secretly, you wished on him too,
didn't you?

Shivam: Maybe once or twice. Okay, fine, maybe more. Who can resist a giant wishing-wielding
monkey, right?

Hiral: (teasingly) So, did any of your wishes come true? Maybe the one about finding a girl who
loves chai as much as you do?

Shivam: (sheepishly) Well, someone's certainly enjoying that third cup...

Hiral: Hey, the wind makes you thirsty! Besides, it tastes better here, with the sunset painting the
clouds like a million cups of masala chai.

Shivam: You always find the magic in the simplest things, don't you? That's one of the things I
love most about you.
Hiral: And you always see the sparkle in my stargazing, even when my eyes are watering from
the wind.

Shivam: Speaking of stars, there's one particularly bright one right here... (looks at Hiral, eyes
twinkling)

Hiral: (blushing) Oh, stop it! You're worse than Nana Ji with his cheesy jokes.

Shivam: But Nana Ji's jokes always make you laugh. And I hope my cheesy lines do too.

Hiral: They do. Sometimes I laugh just to see you blush. Which, coincidentally, you're doing
right now.

Shivam: (grinning) So maybe my cheesy lines have some superpower after all.

Hiral: Maybe they do. But maybe, just maybe, it's not the lines that make me blush, but the boy
saying them.

Shivam: (reaching for Hiral's hand) And maybe, just maybe, it's not the wind making my heart
flutter, but the girl holding my hand.

(Hiral came into present after hearing the combined laugh of everyone)

She start narrating again Everyone laughed.

Hiral - with blushed, he gifted me a rose and I planted that rose in my garden plucked some
flower from there and sent the same by laminating the petals few to them. our relation was fixed
by the parents and now.

Hadiya - Rose dediya bey Himashu.

Himanshu - in CA way, balance sheet balance hogyi.

Hiral - I showed him our house each wall I played with each corner I'm in love with. Hitakshi -
batao mausi Ghar dikha ke uske Dil m ghar kargyi.
Mausi - Pyaar ka chakkkar!

Hiral swatted her playfully. "No chakkar, just innocent beginnings. We sat on the cliff's edge,
legs dangling in the void, talking until the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in a
riot of orange and pink. And that chai, shared under the twinkling stars... it tasted like forever.

Everyone phir kya hua jaldi batao rha nh jata

Mausi – Jaldi bol subh padhana bhi hai and everyone laughed.

Hiral - After first meeting we did not make any video called because he was introvert and apart
from that time he gave rose he is very shy. I just want to give time to knew each other and
understand our self-better for each other’s perspective. while we are not making video calls but
we often had movie dates together on our birthday, and whenever we wanted to make time out
for us. During our office time we always had a sneaky call, we are playing hide n seek around us
because no one knows in complete manner about us.

Mayank - bhout ucch vichar, meri behan, meri behan and laughed with others.

Mausi in teasing way – Agge???

Hiral blushed and say - Our 2 nd meeting after 9th nov 2023, exactly at 1 pm called him after
reaching at his home and there was he standing waiting and welcoming us, For me it’s not like
opening get it’s like when I see his beautiful eyes filled with emotion of love and joy. wearing
black and grey combination, he was looking to handsome and I proudly blesss me to have him in
my life.

Himanshu - hahah client ka portfolio mast h.

Hiral – Areey kya batau Shivam ji kitne handsome lag rahe the matlab main to dekh kar mere
man mein pahla vichar yahi hai ki yah to apna Shyam (Shivam) hai kya mast body banaya hai,
and blushed like heaven.

Hitakshi - yah sab kab tak chalega serious kab hue tum log?

Hiral - han bata rahi hun, things getting serious when he said 3 magical words I love you on
Instagram, and the moment was perfect, we shared our future dreams, likes dislikes nd all it was
serious because it was arranged marriage and there is small invisible thread from the very start so
we always respect each other and enjoy each other’s company more than anything.

Hitakshi and hadiya - ab samajh mein aaya office mein 5-5 ghante Instagram kyon chalaya ja
raha tha.

Mausi - Phirr kya hua Hiral?

Himanshu - bachelor balance sheet ka kuch or hoto batao otherwise main new sheet banau.

Mayank - engagement story p ate h.

Hiral - chalo engagement per aate hain, I slept for 3 hours only because of the big day
excitement. excitement to see him again after 3 months, at 6:30, we left for his home and in an
hour we were there we had fun engagement, after few minutes I started getting cramps and
acidity due to long travel he ran for the chemist and met up with an accident too.

I took the medicine and met him up again sitting in a room I hold his hand; told him you will
mine very soon My fiancé. And left a part of my love to protect him with all the bad karma.

Mausi - Ye to teri story humko janna hai ki ring kaisi thi

Hadiya - Ring pasand aai thi sach sach batana?

Hiral - Are ring to puchho mat, jitna meri life mein Shivam hai, ekadam perfect fit.

Mausi - tumhari saas kaisi Hain?

Hiral - His mom is like a friend giving me extra comfort like hugging and kisiing on the cheeks.

Hadiya stand and say mere kuch sawal h Hitakshi, Mayank, Himanshu and mausi said mere bhi.

Hiral ka pahla question Hadiya ki taraf se why you decided to marry?

Hiral - When I met him, i was not ready to see someone again but his kindness and care, he
always amaze me, he still does that he has an aura of positivity and happiness that vibrant me in
multiple ways and in a sparkling ways. his is smile is comforting more than I anything for the
first time I got the same feeling and same strong bond like my father who can take of me.

Hadiya teased and said father figure and laugh everyone.

Himanshu - similarity?
Hiral - we both are kind, loving, honest, caring, and hardworking.

Hitakshi - very kind Everyone laughed in shadow.

Mayank - As a big bro I want to know dissimilarities?

Hiral - Bro, I got no discipline in eating habits, and he is a fitness freak guy who love hit gym, he
is quite and I am like a talkative, he is a good listener with patience and not over thinker with a
smart problem solver.

Still I feel I'm smarter (just kidding he is whole another level)

Hitakshi said - insaan pyaar m kitni tarif krta h.

Hiral in annoying voice - Sach h sab tujhe to kuch pta nh.

Hitakshi - achcha to Bata whaT brings happiness?

Hiral - his smile, voice and nature of loving and caring and time he gives, caring for my sleep
and food more than I do, I just in love with him.

Himanshu - Ye balance sheet Shivam k taraf bhari horhi h. (Smiled)

Mausi - best romantic date?

Hiral - Hanuman tekri in first meeting. (Greenery with chai and weather was cloudy and to cover
16 min distance its like 16 min is the moment where we had decided to stay forever.

Mausi - 16 somvar, hahhaha.

Hadiya - Mausi app nh smjhi 1+6 thala for a reason Everyone laughed.

Mayank - So, when did you know he was the one, Hiral? Was it when he saved you from that
rogue pigeon on the terrace? Remember, you screamed louder than a banshee! Hitakshi - Or
maybe it was the time he surprised you with those homemade jalebis after your disastrous
cooking experiment? He's a keeper, that Shivam!

Mausi - But Hiral, the most important question is... when's the shaadi? Don't keep us in suspense
like those "Shaadi ke Laddoos"!

(The room explodes in excitement. Hiral blushes even deeper, a playful glint in her eyes.)

Hiral - Mausi, Mausi, shaadi to hone hi hai, Shivji nah hu jo future bta saku! Just like he tripped
while going down on one knee, who knows what surprises the future holds?

Hitakshi - Now, come on, enough gossip! Let's watch a movie... "Jab We Met"!(The room erupts
in cheers. Suddenly, the doorbell rings, the chime echoing through the room.)

Nana Ji -(From outside) Anyone awake? Doorbell kharab hai kya?

(The room erupts in a flurry of activity. Blankets are flung aside, pajamas hastily adjusted. Mausi
throws a playful glare at Hiral.)

Nana Ji narrowed his eyes, scanning the room, taking in the scattered blankets, the chai-stained
mugs, and the telltale blush on Hiral's cheeks.

Nana Ji - Family time, huh? I don't recall projectors being involved in my family time.

Hiral put on her best diplomatic smile and said - Just family time, Nana Ji..

Mausi - Agge? Now who interrupted the grand finale?

Hiral - M jarhi sone, nind arhi hai…walking with yawning.
Hitakshi – Kya acting karti hai, 3 bje tak baat kregi mausi ye.
