"Well. What's the point of worrying over spilt milk. Come on everyone. Dinner is ready" Mrs Agnihotri said

"I will help you Mom" Kiara said getting up from the couch and Mrs Agnihotri smiled in return

"I will also help" Drishti said for a formality

"Oh no!! Please be seated where you are. Don't come anywhere near the kitchen" Mrs Agnihotri said making Drishti pout and the other Agnihotris chuckle

"What happened??" Mithran asked

"The last time she helped Mom in kitchen she burnt the parathas and ruined the tawa. Ever since then ,Mom doesn't let her near the kitchen" Abhay said

"That is because this darpok was distracting me" Drishti put all blame on Siddhu

"What did I do. Man!! I wasn't even in the kitchen.

I was watching TV" Siddhu said

"Yes. You were watching TV. Remember ?? You were watching Friends. And we were supposed to watch it together. You didn't wait for me. Instead yo

"Thank god you grew out of your crush D.I shudder imagining you marrying my brother and finally kicking me out of this house" Siddhu said without thinking and the whole atmosphere turned tense

He looked around and saw Drishti glaring at him and the others looking at him ,each with different expressions.

"Damn it"

"Siddhu??" Anjana asked gaping at her son and his bestfriend

"Haha. Nice joke. Wasn't it??" Siddhu asked chuckling nervously

Abhay coughed feeling awkward. Drishti has always been a little sister for him. To hear that she had a crush on him. That too infront of his wife and Drishti's husband. Add to the mix ,Drishti's husband happens to be his best friends. Great!!

"Who is going to kill you? Shravan bhai or Kiara bhabhi??Death is starring a double role in front of you D." Siddhu whispered and Drishti glared at him

"But your death has a single role Siddharth Agnihotri. And

Shravan pulled his hair in frustration.

Mithran joined him a few minutes back failing at locating Drishti.

Its obvious he would fail as he hadn't even seen Drishti yet.

Shravan heard Mithran's phone ringing and heard him talking to Abhay

"Shravan. Abhay is asking us to go to his house. Uncle has a friend in the police department and he said he would ask for an unofficial search." Mithran said and Shravan nodded as he doesn't have any other options.

***

Abhay Dev was sitting with his parents and wife.

"Shravan got married??" His father asked

"Yeah. He said he will tell the details when we see" Abhay said

"And what is this missing?? How did that even happen??" His mother asked

"I don't know maa. Mithran said Shravan got married agaisnt his wishes and he hadn't really been spending time with his wife too. Who knows what actually happened. Isha was saying she trapped him for money.

"Well. What's the point of worrying over spilt milk. Come on everyone. Dinner is ready" Mrs Agnihotri said

"I will help you Mom" Kiara said getting up from the couch and Mrs Agnihotri smiled in return

"I will also help" Drishti said for a formality

"Oh no!! Please be seated where you are. Don't come anywhere near the kitchen" Mrs Agnihotri said making Drishti pout and the other Agnihotris chuckle

I was watching TV" Siddhu said

"Yes. You were watching TV. Remember ?? You were watching Friends. And we were supposed to watch it together. You didn't wait for me. Instead you played it distracting me to the extend that I had to come and watch forgetting the paratha" Drisht
