FF: A Blue Moon Ago - Epilogue


'So this is the story of Mama Papa.' Kunal said. He felt Kiran's arms slide up his chest from behind.
'Aw, I love their story! Tell me the story again tomorrow! And bhaiya, why is Kiran aunty holding you like that?' an inquisitive ten-year old Sur asked.
Kiran jerked back. She loved hearing her to-be-in-laws love story. She completely forgot about Sur and Taal. She saw Kunal grin and her heart did a flip-flop in her chest. He had grown from a cute little boy to a twenty-two year old handsome young man. She still remembered the day that they had declared their love for each other. They had been best friends for so long that Kiran had been surprised when Kunal had finally told her that he loved her. He had been in love with her for so long that she even told him the truth. She had always loved him.
'Just like that, my little angel. You know she is going to be your bhabhi, right? So she was just hugging me. Just like Mama hugs Papa.' Kunal said smiling mischievously at Kiran who was blushing.
'Stop bugging Kiran, Kunal!' Kripa said from the doorway. Kiran ran to Kripa and hugged her tight. 'Mama, look at Kunal. He has been doing this for the entire weekend.'
Sur and Taal ran to Kripa and hugged her tight. Kunal pouted, 'what about me, Mama?'
Kripa opened her arms wide, 'come here my little baby.' Kunal laughed and hugged his mother. Angad leaned against the doorway. 'Mama's here and everybody forgets Papa, right? Fine, I just won't give anyone any presents.'
Everybody just laughed. He hugged Kripa from behind and this was their perfect family.
Josh and Aaliya came from the doorway and smiled. 'Hi guys! How was your weekend?'
'Masi, Masa!' Sur and Taal left their parents and ran to them. 'We missed you! Where is Sana?' they said in unison. 'When are Nani and Dadi coming now? We miss them!'
'They'll be here soon!' They all laughed and went to the living room. 'Mama, Sur and Taal have prepared a special something for you!'
With that, Taal started singing whereas Sur started dancing. They sang and danced together in such perfection, that it brought tears in everyone's eyes.
'We didn't name you correctly, Sur and Taal. Sur should have been Taal and Taal should have been Sur. Sur dances so well and Taal sings so well. Shouldn't it be the other way round?' They smiled proudly at their identical twins.
