The room was quieted after Aanya's confession. Priyanka realized that her aunt was behind it. She smiled at the little girl so that she could feel free once again.
"Your aunt might be right about strangers but Priyanka is not a stranger. She is going to be your mom, okay?" Karan finally spoke. He squeezed her hand a bit and she laughed.
"Okay papa" She relaxed back to the bed. He kissed her cheeks "goodnight."
"Goodnight, Aanya" They both wished at the same time.
"You can go back to your rooms. I'm okay" She told them. Karan asked her if she would not cry after they leave but Aanya assured him that he was a big girl now.
He bid her goodnight once again. They left.
That night, Karan slept in Salem's room while Priyanka slept alone on the couch in his room. Since he refused to spend the night in the room, she also did want to sleep on his bed.
