'So you all are ready na?' said excited Barsha more like asked. 'yes my baby ' said Mridul and all people looked at him who planned such a dangerous birthday plan for his sister. Yes it was all planned that's why they were behaving like this . Mrinal was upset about it but she can't hurt them . She knows the intensity of love which they have for her. So she tried to request them , made them understand but they were up to something . Bristi and Adi informed them as they saw her coming from drawing school . She reached the door of her house , she entered and it was dark inside . She asked ' Where are u people?' She approached more again she again asked but there was no response . Now she is getting worried .She reached to the centre of the drawing room and suddenly out of nowhere her whole family said 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY ' in unison and all the lights came back and flowers are started falling on her . She was surprised and shouted ' ahhhhhhh' and then she realised that they wished her .Now she is not angry at them anymore . She was not angry at all but she was sad .But not now , she loves surprises and she got one . Whole drawing room was decorated with balloons as she likes . ' Sweety cut the cake ' Mihir said 'Yes Moni cut the cake ' said Barsha and Adi immediately. ' Mira first make a wish, blow the candle and then cut the cake .' Her mammam said . She is very surprised at all this and beyond happy .She blew the candle and wished her new birthday wish . Yes from last 8 years she is praying a single wish but now today she changed it. "Happy Birthday Mira" "Happy Birthday Moni" She had tears in her eyes she knew that her that dream will not be fulfilled but the dream of staying with her family will be always fulfilled . And she is happy . She fed them cake and then she touched their feet and took blessings . They gave her lots of blessings and Mridul suddenly cleared his throat and caught everyone's attention ' Dadubhai will you not give your precious granddaughter any special gift as she graduated this year ?' he asked with a grin . Dadubhai replied 'Yes ' Mrinal ' There is no need of special gift Dadubhai ' Dadubhai said ' First take a look of your gift and then decide ' then he gave her an envelop . Everybody is supressing their laughter and excitement . Mrinal opened it and her mouth was open in a 'O' and time was paused for her . Her sister-in-laws shook her ' Hey ! Mira ' 'Yes yes ' and then she realized then she shouted ' O my god!!!!!!Dadubhai that .. that means I...I got chance and I am going to Mumbai .' Her happiness is beyond limit then she asked 'But how ? You were not ready to send me yesterday then how come today ? Mihir said ' My dear pumpkin sister it was all to surprise you today and the letter came two days back not today . So we thought to little surprise you . ' Dadubhai ' My Mira you were trying us to convince since the day you applied and today was your last day to convince us . When we got that letter that you got chance two days back we booked the ticket and sorry baby for hiding it from you .' Mrinal ' So that's why you people were behaving like this , ok i was angry but not now but whose plan was all this 'her 6th sense was saying it all could be done by only one person and that is Mihir . Adi ' Kakai ' And that's all Mrinal ' You !!!!! I love you chotodadabhai ' and she hugged him . All thought she would make him bald by pulling his hair . Mridul was also prepared himself for it . Bristi ' See papa you are ok ' Everybody laughed . They broke the hug . Then her mother said sweetly 'Sorry Mira ' Mrinal couldn't control her tears , happy tears . Sona ma ' Don't cry baby . We all are with you .' Mamoni ' So our little Mira is going to Mumbai finally . You liked our surprise ?' Mridul ' Why not ? After all it was my plan ' Mihir ' The one who was saying 'Please dadabhai save me from her if she becomes angry '' he mocks Mridul ' Why not dadabhai ? Our baby sister can become Maa Chandi in any moment ?And moreover I don't want my beautiful wife to be sad cause of me being bald ? ' he said innocently . He got a glare from his wife and he doesn't care . Mrinal ' You all were in that . Hmmm , even you two my love .' she pouted . Adi 'Sorry Moni.' he made his cutest face. Bristi ' But it was to make you happy .' in her sweetest voice . Mrinal was never angry on then it is impossible . But she was little annoyed as they rejected her every time and they did all this . Then her dadubhai said ' Do you know why you are so special ? If any other girl was there in your place they could have put a fight . But no you requested us every time and yesterday when you said Love doesn't cage you but gives you wings. I realised you felt that only our love is not permitting us to let you go .Then how can we as you said Love doesn't cage you but gives you wings .' Mrinal took Adi and Bristi in a warm hug and said ' You people are best . and I am going to miss you ' Boroboudibhai patted her head abd said ' Chill Mira . We are always with you ' Chotoboudibhai also supported her ' Yes now let's have your food . Everything is your favourite today . Then we will pack your bags . ' Her father and uncles gave her hug and said ' We are always with you sweety .' ' This the best birthday gift ever ' Mrinal's happy voice chipped like a bird. Mrinal was sad in the morning so she went to drawing school as it is her favourite place . And they got the time to surprise her . They had their dinner with happy hearts . And after that she packed her bag s. She took some special memories with everyone , family photos , her teddy bears and her diary . She is their heart , their reason for smile . She slept today with her girls' party . she never stayed out of their eyesight but now she is going to stay in hostel. Though she is princess of their house but can do everything by her own . So no problem regarding this . But the problem is staying without them is very difficult but her dreams are also there . So finally she is ready to go and they are also ready for it . They are not rich so she is going to stay in her college's hostel. She got up from bed when she felt everyone was in deep sleep and stared at her bedroom . She is living here for years . She is also going to miss her bed , study table , her house , going college by tram etc. Then she came to downstairs felt the silence but someone said ' Mira ' Mrinal was surprised by her voice ' Didun tumi ?' (Didun you are here?) Grandmother (Didun) smiled and said ' You thought I was sleeping . Actually yes but got up to drink water . And then saw you were not there so I came as I knew and saw you here . Listen sweety just do what your heart says and again we are sorry for that . ' Then she said ' By the way as you are going to Mumbai search a handsome man for you . I said a man not a boy .' and then she winked . Mrinal's eyes widened hearing her ' Didun!!' Grandmother ' Okkk . Now come and sleep. You have to reach your destination .' They went upstairs and slept with others . It was difficult for them to see off her at airport .They couldn't go with her as they all have their work , office , school etc. She also didn't want to disturb them . Soon she said good bye to them with both tears and smile . The flight left Kolkata for Mumbai . LITTLE DID SHE KNOW SHE IS GOING TO THE DEVIL HERSELF WITHOUT KNOWING. ************************************************************************ ************************************************************************ For any further confusion : Barsha - Nickname of Bristi Chatterjee Adi - Nick name of Aditya Chatterjee I will use their nick names most of the time.
