He would fetch her after three hours.He said Zinu,that he would take her to somewhere.So, both Zinu and Ronnie returned their home. Zinu decided to take a short nap. She woke up hearing some sounds from their living room. She got up and saw her watch. "Oh. s.h.i.+t. It"s almost the time to go with John.She hurriedly took a shower and got dressed. When she came out from her room, she surprised. John was sitting on their living room with Ronnie on his lap and chatting happily with his mother. As Zinu entered the room, Sofia scolded her, "Zinu, why didn"t told me that Mr. Smith is coming? And how can you hide that, you are marrying him? " She pouted.
Zinu smiled and hugged her mother. "Mom.I am sorry. I was so tired after the long journey."
Sofia smiled, "I know my dear, I am very happy for you and Ronnie both. John told me that he had adopted Ronnie as his son. Look at Ronnie. He is not ready to leave John. He is holding on John"s neck from the time, John is here. " Zinu too look at the father -son duets.Her lips curved into a smile.
"Zinu let"s got to the Marriage Bureau.After marriage we would return to fetch Ronnie."

John rolled his eyes, "Don"t say you have changed your mind. I"d not let you go."
Zinu shook her head negatively, "I didn"t mean that. What I am saying that, we just have come. "
John smiled and let Ronnie sit in the couch and said, "I wouldn"t take the risk. I know you can change your mind any time. So, before that, I want to marry you.Charlie had prepared everything. We just have to go there and sign.And mother, please get ready. I will return within two hours to fetch you two. "

Zinu was listening them impatiently and said, "Will someone tell me where we all are going? "
Sofia answered her with a mischievous smile, "Do you think your husband, would let you live here, after your marriage? "
Zinu felt her ears become hot. This mother of her. She is so shameless. To get ride her shyness, she again entered her room. Sofia laughed at her action and took Ronnie"s hand and left the room, saying, "I am going to pack Ronnie"s essential things. You please take care of my daughter. "
John smiled and entered Zinu"s room. John looked at the room and it"s decorations . It was a small room, but neatly kept.Zinu was sitting on the bed with red face. John approached her. He took Zinu"s hand on his and said, "Darling, let"s go to start our new life. "
Zinu smiled at him and followed. As they reached the Marriage Bureau Office, they saw Charlie was waiting for them. He said, "Boss everything is ready. Lady boss, please come this way. " Last sentence he told to Zinu. Zinu smiled at him and followed John. They signed the doc.u.ments and took a photograph together, and come out the office with their marriage certificates. Zinu was feeling strange. She could not describe her feelings.She was in the same time happy, nervous sad as well as very excited . John could guess her mental condition . Every woman felt same on their marriage may be. So, to ease her mental condition, he told her , "Zinu, we should go to one gift corner to buy gifts for mother and grandma. " She nodded and left for the gift corner.
After sometime they returned to her home to fetch Ronnie. He was excited to go his newly found father"s house. He was eagerly waiting for them. As he saw, Zinu and John getting down from the car, he ran to John and hugged his legs and said, "Dad!! Will we go now? "
John"s heart missed a beat. Dad!! Ah! It sounds so lovely, so nice. He embraced Ronnie and said in low voice. "Please call me dad again. "
Ronnie was happy to call John dad. "Dad! You are so good. " Ronnie said and kissed John"s cheek. John kissed back Ronnie and hugged him tight. Zinu and Sofia couldn"t keep their tears. They were waiting for this moment for so long.
After one hour, they were ready to go. "Mom, call me whenever you want. Tell Dolly and Aunt Angel, I"ll miss them too. Take your medicines in time. "Zinu said with sad face. Both John and Zinu wanted to take her with them, but she didn"t go. She didn"t want to disturb the newly wed couple.
