She couldn't compromise with Nirmal's decision. Sometimes Nirmal came to her. Seeing her vacant eyes, he asked, "Are you not happy? I could do everything for your happiness. If you don't want to go, then I may cancel it ." Anu gave a sympathetic look to Nirmal. Then she caught his hand affectionately and was going on saying emotional words.
