Meer was home for a week
now… his dad's health was deteriorating as his rare blood disorder has
relapsed. Meer found it so unbearable to see him in so much pain and didn't
leave his side for a moment. There was a pool of relatives and well wishers in
and out of their house to meet his dad who was giving up slowly this time
yielding to the pressure of old age and his chronic sickness. It was not easy
for any one of them. The anchor of their house was slipping and no matter how
hard she tried to control them, tears kept blurring his mom's eyes and the sea
of tears lodged there just didn't dry up.
Meer was so proud of his
dad whose goodness reflected on his face. He had been a Govt. servant but had
never taken a single penny in bribe. He was a family man who took great care of
everyone around him, this is the reason why whoever learnt about his ill health,
came running. Meer knew his dad wanted to see him married before he left for
the heavenly abode but had just kept quite for the sake of his son. He felt it
was his duty to fulfil his last desire and wanted to do it all cost just for
him.
He met Aditi the same night and shared with her everything about his and Priyam's relationship seeking advice from her childhood best buddy who suggested him to introduce Priyam to his parents, though she herself successfully hid everything that her heart was through. Meer really liked the idea for he was sure no one especially his parents can ever dislike Priyam. Before he left Bhopal to persuade her precious half for the same, he did one good thing, he took his mamma into confidence who was initially a little angry though but later gave in her sonny's request of just meeting his choice once.

Priyam was relieved to see
her love was back as this also meant to her that his dad was better and she had
been praying invariably for the same. As they met at their favorite spot on the
sunset point that evening, holding her face firming in his palms, he apprised
her of the situation at home and how deeply he wished to fulfil his dad's last
desire with his eyes turning moist as he expressed himself in his softest ever
voice. He also shared how he wished that she met his parents once. He had a
firm belief that even if it comes after a few initial hiccups, they would
approve of them and his dad would be eventually proud of his choice.
On the other hand, though
Priyam's heart went out to her Mee and all that he had said had made great
sense to her, but she was perplexed at the thought of meeting his dad. She was
not even comfortable with the word dad and her ugly past stood in front of her
whenever she heard or tried to speak the same. But for someone who meant
everything to her, she weaved herself together and agreed. Meer took permission
from her mom to fetch her along with him and they started immediately as time
was running out for his dad.
Was it easy for Meer's
parents to accept Priyam? Will Meer be able to fulfil his dad's last wish? Stay
