He stopped in middle realising what he was about to say.

He left the appt.on 3.30 pm,making excuse to his friends that he has been called by his father since his grandmother is not well and want to meet him.
He left two gifts for mihika and saarika as rakhi gifts.
Next day Romi and mihir came to hostel for the rituals of rakhi.
Saarika and mihika were surprised of sudden departure of raman.they enquired ishu about that.she faked that she doesn't know anything about his plans.boys informed about his grandmother's condition. The girls unwillingly accepted the gift left by him.After the ritual ishita has left for her home as her car had arrived.
In Delhi everybody was surprised to see raman.

Mr bhalla-yes she is OK but she behaving like a child after the heartattack she had last month.she is very much worried about your marriage. She often tells that she wants to see your marriage as soon as possible since she don't have much time to live.she even had chosed girl for you,even I liked her somuch .so today we people were going to meet them.
R-but papa u should have asked me once na.
Mr bhalla-yes son I know its a kind of forcing you to marry but I am sure u will like that girl.she is a very good girl.
