Chapter 509 - Baby showers 2

Shriya sat straight and said looking at the ceiling "How about we do baby showers for Gouthami".

Rahul looked at her and asked "Baby showers ?". He didn't expect such a thing from her and Shriya nodded "Yes, Baby showers. Using this as an opportunity we can invite your in-laws too and it will help you guys reconcile with them too."

Rahul sat silent and Shriya continued with excitement "Yes, Gouthami is in her nine month and Chotu's (Manvi's kid) one month birthday will be soon too. We will do both on that day together."

She is in her one fantasy and said with a wide smile on her face "Why didn't I think about this earlier". She was proud of her ownself.

Rahul was silent all the while and Shriya looked at him with confusion when she saw his weird and sad look. She realised something and said "I am sorry, I am busy making my own plans. I didn't even think if you guys are okay with it or not ?"

Rahul shook his head and explained "It's not that. I am okay with it but I am not sure if this will work out. Gouthami's parents are different and what will mom say ?"

Shriya called Gouthami to that room and told about her idea and she said after listening to the entire thing "I am fine. Moreover I don't think my parents will come. They are not the type to attend any functions unless they are useful to them professionally and their schedule will be packed all the time." She gave out a sad smile which made Rahul sad. He hugged his wife and said "It's okay".

That evening Shriya discussed the same thing with Abhi and he is not happy with her idea. He said "Don't get involved in such matters. It's their personal thing" and She said with a pout "Well, I just want Gouthami to be happy. We are all a family".

Abhi smiled and said "We never know. What if she becomes more sad after meeting her parents ?" and Shriya retorted "That won't happen. No one will be sad to see their parents atleast not at this time."

She went to sleep and he said "Okay, let them deal with it regarding inviting her parents. But baby showers, we can do it if Gouthami is okay and happy with it" and she smiled woth satisfaction.

Rahul spoke with his mother and she agreed to the function. Shriya stayed at the Mansion to help, she wanted to sleep in Preeti's room for the time being but later Abhi and her decided to be as usual.

They didn't want to put Mrs. Malhotra in the dark and she already kind of their relationship status. The day she moved in again Mrs. Malhotra asked Abhi "How could you share a room with that girl Abhi ?" and he replied softly "We are engaged mom".

She looked around and no one seemed tobe surprised with his words and she know everyone are on their side. She didn't want to make a scene especially before Gouthami and Manvi.

All the arrangements were done at home for the ceremony. Abhi was busy with his shoot and Yash and Uday with office work.

Rahul and Shriya are the ones who took care of everything. In addition to the baby showers they decided to celebrate Chotu's one momth birthday.

Rahul is in charge of all the invitations and outside work while Shriya settled with decorations and in charge of kitchen.

Yash went to get clothes for Chotu and everything is done perfectly without Mrs. Malhotra worrying about anything.

The evening before that day, Gouthami's parents came suddenly and it was a surprise for all of the memebers of Malhotra family.

Housekeeper Ram welcomed them and attended to them while Mrs. Malhotra and Gouthami went downstairs to meet them.

All the men are out for different works while Shriya is helping Manvi to get some pictures of the baby boy for next day's big event. They also went downstairs to greet the guests.

Shriya saw a beautiful, fair and elegant woman in her fifties on the sofa sitting across Mrs. Malhotra. She wore a custom made white blouse over a knee length skirt paired with nude high heels. Her watch is very also limited edition.

Her bag is from a famous international brand and Shriya knew the minimum cost of any bag from that brand is not less than five zeros US dollars.

The man next to her is a tall man with a belly but fair skin. He wore a tailored navy blue suit with a white shirt underneath with silver or some stone cuff links. His shoes are also limited edition. On the whole they looked more like fashionistas than doctors.

Everything looked natural but Shriya felt that something is definently off with the atmosphere. She stared at them and found that they are not smiling, their faces are stiff as rocks without any expressions, even Mrs. Malhotra looked a bit off and Gouthami looked sad.
