"If it is what you think, then you should meet Henry Davidson, the childhood friend of John. Grandma called him today to meet you. Actually, you have already met him. He is the same guy, you met yesterday. Your game partner. " Zinu looked at her to see the reaction. But she could not see any. "Zinu, just tell grandma that, I need not meet him. If grandma has chosen him for me, then he must be good. I am ready to marry him. You just convey my message to grandma. And please don"t say anyone about my unsuccessful love story. Now it is meaningless to me." Dolly said without any emotion in her voice. Zinu looked up and studied her face intently. Although she was telling her words without any emotions, she can see the pain in her eyes. It is said that eyes are the mirror of the mind. Zinu immediately read her mind. But what could she do now? She knew that Dolly is stubborn. If she had taken any decision then n.o.body can change it. She sighed.
"Dolly think before you do anything. Remember that we are all only want you to be happy. Don"t take any decision only to make us happy. Our happiness only depends on your happiness."
Dolly nodded. Zinu left her room and went to the garden and sat on a bench. She was worried about Dolly. She can felt that Dolly has left the hope of happiness. She would never be happy with Henry. Her happiness is with her ex-boyfriend. But what can she do?
"You are sitting here? I was searching for you everywhere." Mrs Smith came and sat with her.
"Oh.Grandma.Yes, I wanted to enjoy nature."
"Are you fine? Is something bothering you? Is it related to Dolly? Don"t you hesitate to share anything with me? Maybe I am old, but I too understand the matters of you young people."
"Grandma Dolly said that she is ready to marry Henry."
"What! How can she be ready to marry anyone without meeting him properly?"
"I am also thinking about the same thing. But she is determined to marry him."
"I think there is something else also, which I don"t know. Will you tell me what happened?"
Zinu thought for some time and told her everything. Mrs Smith stunned to know it.
"Poor girl! She must go through a lot."
"Grandma, can we do something for her?"
"What can we do? If the person too loved her, he would not let her go. If Dolly herself left the hope, then we can not do anything. As she said that the man cheated on her. How can we let Dolly to spent with a guy, who is a cheater? He may cheat her in future too. But, if Dolly wanted to marry that guy, we would happily marry her to him. As you said that she herself accepted Henry "s proposal, then we should go with the flow."
Zinu nodded. What Mrs Smith said is correct. It is her life. So, knows better what is good for her. Zinu sighed.
"Zinu.Don"t think too much. Everything will be fine. Our Dolly is not a weak girl. She is mature now. She knows what she is doing. Let"s go inside. It"s almost time for Henry"s arrival."
Zinu nodded and followed Mrs Smith.
When they entered the house, they heard John was speaking to someone. It was Henry. Alicia and Sofia were also there. Mrs Smith smiled brightly at him. Henry got up and wished both.
"Sister-in-law, you are really beautiful. I can leave the world to get a beauty like you. John is lucky enough to get you as his wife." Henry said with a flirtatious smile. Zinu blushed. John rolled his eyes and pull Zinu and let her sit near him.
"You better don"t leave the world for my wife. She is now private property." John said coldly.
"Ok.Ok.Don"t get angry. I am joking. Anyways, grandma, I have brought a gift for you, sister -in law and all others."
"Oh so sweet of you Henry. But you should not be brought gifts." Mrs Smith replied.
"Why not grandma. When I came here ten years ago, there are only two of you. Now you have a big family. How can I introduce myself to everyone without a gift?"Henry replied.
"Ok .Ok. No need to explain. Just give me my gift." John said.
"Your gift?When did I say that I have brought a gift for you?Oh, I am sorry bro. I have not brought anything for you."
"What! You have brought gifts for everyone and not for me? How can you do it? Are you my friend or not?"
"John, have you forgotten about your status? You are the richest man in the world. How can you scolding me for a gift?"
Everyone laughed. John got up.
"You always do this to me. You always make excuses when to gift me. I deserve a gift from you because I married earlier than you. But no. Why would you? I don"t need your gift.Bye."
If someone from the outside of Smith family saw now John, they would have fainted in shock.The cold businessman who is runnig the world of business so efficiently,is seeking a gift from his friend
"John. Don"t get angry. How can I forget you, my friend? Here take this. It"s the book you searched during last year of high school. It is the last copy of that publication." John"s face brightens. It was his favourite adventure series. The publication of the series was stopped. John searched in almost all bookstall for the last book of the series.Henry remembered John" s chice of that time.
"Thank you, Henry, for the gift. I forgive you."
Henry smiled back at him. He surely knows how to make him happy. Charlie handed everyone their gifts.
