"Rehan, we're going to Mumbai for a quick trip," Chandrani announced as she packed a small bag for her son. Ashok looked up from his laptop, his brow furrowed with concern. "Is it really necessary to take him along?"
"I have no choice," she replied, her voice firm. "Your meetings are too important, and I can't leave him with the neighbors again." Rehan's eyes lit up with excitement, unaware of the tension his innocent question had caused.
Ashok sighed, pushing aside his work. He knew his wife was right; their son needed them, especially after the traumatic events of the past week. Reluctantly, he rose from his chair and began to help her pack. Chandrani had always been the more ambitious one, pushing him to take on more responsibilities at work, to be more assertive. He sometimes felt overwhelmed by her drive, but he also knew that her ambition had been the key to their success.
"You know I'm not like you," he said as he folded his shirts into the suitcase. "I don't have the same... fire."
Chandrani turned to him, her eyes softening. "Ashok, you're more than capable," she said gently, placing a hand on his shoulder. "You just need to believe in yourself. We're a team."
He nodded, the weight of her words sinking in. Despite his reservations, he knew she was right. They had always been a team, navigating life's challenges together. With renewed determination, he packed the last of their bags and they set off for the weekend.
SUMMARY^1: Chandrani decides to bring Rehan on a weekend trip to Mumbai despite Ashok's initial reluctance due to his important meetings. She reassures him of their partnership and his potential, leading to a unified decision to make the trip together.
Thing was gloomy till ashok's parents arrived in afternoo and the tension between them began to ease. Chandrani's mother-in-law, a stern yet affectionate woman, fussed over Rehan, while her father-in-law regaled them with tales of his youth. Ashok felt a strange sense of comfort in their presence, despite their initial apprehension about the visit.
Dinner was a grand affair, with his mother-in-law insisting on serving them her signature dishes. Chandrani's eyes twinkled with mischief as she watched Ashok devour the food, his earlier frustrations forgotten. She knew how much he loved his mother's cooking, and it brought him a sense of peace that nothing else could.
The evening was spent with the family, sharing stories and laughter, and Chandrani couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment. Her own ambitions had once again been set aside for the sake of her marriage and her family's happiness. But she knew that this was only temporary; the hunger for more, for power and recognition, still gnawed at her from within.
The next day, as they were getting ready to leave for the city, Ashok finally broke the silence. "Chandrani," he began, his voice tentative. "I know you want more, and I'm... I'm trying to be more supportive." He looked at her with a mix of love and apprehension. "But I'm just not like you. I don't have the stomach for all this... politics."
SUMMARY^1: Ashok's parents' arrival brings a brief reprieve from tension as the family shares a comforting dinner. However, Chandrani's underlying ambition for power remains, and Ashok expresses his difficulty in fully supporting her political aspirations.
Chandrani sighed, her eyes softening. "I know, Ashok," she said, stepping closer to him. "But sometimes, we have to do what we must to get what we want." She took his hands in hers, looking into his eyes. "We're in this together, remember?"
The drive to the airport was fraught with tension, the weight of their conversation lingering in the air like a storm cloud. But as they checked in and made their way inside the flight, Rehan's excitement grew. He cribbed for the window seat, his eyes wide with anticipation at the prospect of flying. The handsome stranger, Debansh Verma, had overheard his whining and offered to swap seats with him.
chandrani initialy was reluctant as she did not want to cause any trouble to a fellow passenger.
"its ok",chandrani looking sternly to rehan, " beta..behave yourself"
Debansh Verma, the hunky stranger, smiled understandingly. He had a chiseled jawline and piercing eyes that made Chandrani's heart skip a beat. He was dressed in a well-tailored suit that hugged his muscular frame, and the scent of his cologne filled the air.
"Of course," he said, his voice a rich baritone that impressed Chandrani's . "Kids should get the window seat." He winked at Rehan, who beamed with excitement as he scurried into the now-vacant seat.
"I have no choice," she replied, her voice firm. "Your meetings are too important, and I can't leave him with the neighbors again." Rehan's eyes lit up with excitement, unaware of the tension his innocent question had caused.
