Pages 82-125 Summary

At home, Priyanka’s mom scolds Priyanka for being too moody and quiet at Jatin and Deepa’s house, for neglecting to visit baby Shilpa in the hospital, and for having “crazy ideas” such as wanting to visit India. Priyanka’s mom claims that India is not the safe, happy place that Priyanka believes it to be. She wants Priyanka to forget about traveling to India, but Priyanka cannot. Priyanka goes to her room, and her mom prays to Shakti for advice on how to deal with her. Meena Mausi calls Priyanka’s mom, and they talk for the first time in 15 years. During that time, Priyanka’s mom has avoided talking to her sister because she has been ashamed. Now, Mausi is pregnant, and although Priyanka’s mom still doesn’t want to visit India and feels that she is too busy helping Jatin, Deepa, and Shilpa, she decides to allow Priyanka to go to India to visit Mausi. Priyanka is delighted to visit India and meet her aunt for the first time.

In her bedroom, Priyanka uses her magic pashmina. She is transported to a beach in India, where she is greeted by Kanta and Mayur.
