Vaidehi went to the kitchen where Sunaina was cutting fruits. Vaidehi started acting as if she were deep in thought.
Suddenly, Sunaina's gaze fell upon her, and she asked, "What happened, beta? What are you thinking about so much?"

"Um, nothing, Maa... actually, Maa, I was just thinking that..." she hesitated (ahh yes, her so-called acting, I mean).

Sunaina interrupted, saying, "Come on, what are you thinking now? Are you worried about Rudra?"

"Yes, Maa, actually, I have a solution. I'm 90% sure it will work for him," Vaidehi replied.

"Oh really? What solution?" Sunaina asked.

"Vo naa ek kadha hota hai, actually naa inko jaise huaa haina pet dard achanak se vaisa Riddhi ko bhi hota hai kabhi kabhi to mumma na uske liae ek special aayurvedik kadha banate hai aur you know what usse uska pet dard bilkul thik ho jata hai, to mai soch rahi thi Rudra pe bhi work karega ye shayad" vaidehi said trying to convince sunaina

(Actually, just like his sudden stomach pain, Riddhi also sometimes experiences it. So, Mumma prepares a special Ayurvedic kadha for her, and you know what? Her stomach pain completely gets better. So, I was thinking maybe this might work for Rudra too.)

Sunaina said, "So what are you thinking, dear? Just make it."

"But maa, actually, its taste is really (makes a weird face) bad... Will Rudra drink it?" Vaidehi asked intentionally.

"Rudra to kya uske papa bhi piyenge tum banao to sahi," sunaina replied, assuring her

"Par papa ko thodi na pet dard hai," she literally says, showing her dumbness
(Oh, but Papa doesn't have a stomach ache, right?)

Sunaina gave her look for 1 second but said quickly, "ku-kuch nahii banao tum mai dekhti hu Rudra kaise nahi pita."
("Don't worry, you make it. I'll see how Rudra doesn't drink it.")

"Okay, maa," she replied with a cute smile

"Par tumhe banana aata hai?" Sunaina asked, reminding her words,"maggie ke siva kuch nahi aata. "
(Do you know how to make it)

"Yes, I mean no, I've seen mumma making it, but don't worry, I'll call mumma and ask her how to make it," she assured her mother-in-law.

"Alright, you make it, and if you need anything, call me. I'm in the hall," Sunaina said.

"Yes, maa," Vaidehi replied with a gentle smile, and Sunaina went out of the kitchen.

Vaidehi mumbled while rubbing her palms together, "Now, let's see how we go on our honeymoon, Mr. Malhotra," and smirked.

She quickly called her mumma, and with her instructions, she made a herbal Kadha and poured it into a glass.
"Maa, the herbal kadha is ready," Vaidehi said, looking at Sunaina in the hall.

"Alright, let's go then," Sunaina said, and both headed towards Rudra's room.

Rudra was litterely praying to mahadev "mahadev please us bevkuf ko sadbuddhi dijiaega, please bacha lijiaega.. please, please, please...
(Please Lord save me)

He was praying when he heard the sound of the door opening, and he quickly opened his eyes to look towards that sound and found sunaina and vaidehi with a glass in the tray

"Pata nahi kis janam ke papo ki saza milne vali hai aaj," he thought in mind
(Don't know what sin i had done in past birth)

"Look what your wife has prepared for you... how much she cares for you," Sunaina said while approaching him.

"Areee kya maa aap bhi na.." vaidehi said sharmane vali overacting karte huae

"Ab lagta hai mujhe teri fikr karne ki zarurat nahi padegi.. fikar karne vali jo aa gai hai. " Sunaina said, praising vaidehi
(Now it seems I won't need to worry about you anymore... the one who cares has arrived)

"Nahii maa please aap hi kijiae fikr," Rudra mumbled
("No, Mom, please,only you take care,")

"Kya? Kya kaha" sunaina asked who hered a little but not clear
("What? What did you say?")

"He means, bachhe kitne bhi bade ho jaye maa-papa unki fikr karna karna thodehi chodte hai, hainaa Rudravaidehi said managing the situation
(No matter how grown up the kids become, parents never stop worrying about them, right Rudra?")

"Yes yes maa exactly i mean," Rudra said, giving glare to vaidehi on which she gave him a smile

"Chal vo sab chhod ab aur ye pi le kadha," Sunaina said
(Okay, forget all that now, and have this concoction.)

"Nahii maa mujhey nahi pasand ye," Rudra said, making weird face
(No, Mom, I don't like this.)

"Pasand na pasand kuch nahi chup chap pile kaha naa," sunaina ordered him
(Whether you like it or not, quietly drink it, I said naa)

"Pi lijiae na isse pakka thik ho jayenge aap" vaidehi said extra sweetly
(Please have it. You'll definitely feel better after drinking it.)

"Jao beta vaidehi pila do usko," sunaina said
(Go, Vaidehi, make him drink it).

Vaidehi went towards him and gave him glass and mumbled "jab Riddhi School na jane ke liae drama karti haina to mumma yahi kadha pilati hai usko, dekhna jaise uspe kam karta hai na aap pe bhi karega ye" and winked

(When Riddhi throws a tantrum about not wanting to go to school, Mom makes her drink this concoction. It seems to work on her, so i am sure it will work on you too.)

Rudra drank it in a one go and gave a death glare to vaidehi, who smiled in return

"Shabash ab aaram karo," sunaina said
(Well done, now relax.)

"Hann aaram kijiae aap, mai bhi unpack kar deti hu" vaidehi said and sighed
(Yes, you relax, I'll also unpack the stuff.)

"Aree koi zarurat nahi h abhi sham tak dekhte hai isse ho hi jayega achha aur tickets bhi cancel nahi ho sakti aashu se pucha maine to kaha usne" Sunaina said
(Oh, there's no need now. Let's see, by evening, it'll be fine, and the tickets can't be canceled anyway)

"Jii maa jaise aap kahe, aap chaliae mai bas abhi aayi" vaidehi replied, being obedient
(As you say, Mom. You go ahead, I'll be right there.)

Sunaina hummed and went outside
Vaidehi, too, followed her after winking at Rudra, who was continuously glarring at her
