At night

Bondita was lying on her bed reminiscing the moments she had with Anirudh.

She utters to herself: Ye kya ho raha hai hume.... Kyun unka saath itna accha lagne laga hai.... Kyun unke kareeb aane se koi aitraaz nahi hota.... Aaj tak aisa kabhi kisi ke saath mehsoos nahi hua.... Kahi Ansh sach toh nahi keh Raha tha.... Hum sach me unse pyaar.... Nahi nahi... Aisa nahi ho sakta.... Matarani ye kya ho raha.... Aap hi samjha do.....

She close her eyes and all the moments she spent with him flashes in front of her. She recalls how she cried when Anirudh was falling in the trench.

She open her eyes and utters in joy blushing: Haan.... Haan... Mujhe... Mujhe pyaar hai.... Mujhe unse pyaar ho gaya hai....

She got up and started dancing in joy.

She took a pillow and started turning in joy while blushing and holding the pillow close to her chest.

( Listen to the song while reading further)

Her feet halted when she saw Anirudh standing in front of her smiling. She looked at him as he took his steps closer to her. The pillow fell from her hand.He gently touched her cheeks with his fingers. She blushed and and turned. She started taking her steps but felt a tug on her dupatta. Anirudh started moving closer to her holding her dupatta. He wrapped the dupatta around her shoulder and hugged her from behind. She closed her eyes feeling him. He held her hand and turned her.

(Picture is just for reference... Coz I was not able to describe the scene in words)

He then pulled her towards himself. He held her waist with one hand and held her other hand. She kept her one hand on his shoulder and other was interwined with his. Their gazes locked with each other. He moved closer and gently kissed her forehead and she closed her eyes in bliss.

She opened her eyes smiling and blushing but saw herself still standing with the pillow in her hand. She looked at herself and realised she was imagining him. She hit her head with her hand while blushing and smiling profusely.

But her smile didn't last long. She then uttered: Nahi.... Hum apne pyaar ke saath.... Itna galat kar rahe hai..... Unhe dhokha de rahe hain.... her eyes welled up.... Nahi... Hum unke saath dhokha nahi karenge... Hum unhe kal hi sach bata denge.... Zyada se zyada... Kya hoga.... Hum arrest ho jayenge.... Unse alag ho jayenge.... Yahi to humari kismat hai... Bachpan se.... Jisse pyaar Kiya.... Use khona padta hai.... Par hum unhe dhokha nahi de sakte.... Hum kal hi unhe saara sach bata denge... Kuch nahi chupayenge.....

Suddenly she heard a knock on the door. She wiped her tears and opened the door and it was Ansh.
Bondita then: Ansh... Tu iss waqt yahan.... Soya nahi.....

Ansh then came inside: Nahi Dii.... Mujhe neend nahi aa rahi...mujhe ab ye sab accha nahi lag raha.... Jo hum kar rahe hai.... Wo log kitne acche hai.... Aur Dii... Chahe aap mano ya na mano.... Par aap bhi.... Anirudh Bhaiya se pyaar karne lage ho.... Bondita looked at him... Maine dekha hai aapki aankhon me......

Her eyes again welled up and she said: Haan... Hai hume unse pyaar.... Bohot pyaar karte hain hum unse.... Aur... Aur hume bhi unke saath galat karna accha nahi lag raha... Hum kal hi unhe saara sach bata denge.... Sab ke saamne.... Phir chahe uska anjaam.... Kuch bhi ho....

Andh then: Nahi Dii..... Sab ke saamne nahi.... Wahan.... Ye dono bhi honge..... aur woh aapki baat ko ghuma sakte hain.... Isliye... Pehle aap Anirudh Bhaiya ko batana....

Bondita nodded: Tu theek keh Raha hai... Hum pehle Anirudh Ji ko batayenge.....

The night was sleepless for her.

Next day
It was Mehendi Ceremony

Bondita and the fake family arrived at Sethi Mansion. The elders got busy in their chit- chat, meanwhile Bondita was searching for Anirudh.

Bondita uttered in frustration: Kahan chale gaye hain.... Aise toh achanak kahi se bhi tapak padte hain... Aaj jab dhoondh rahe hain... Toh pata nahi kahan gayab hain....

Rudra noticed Bondita looking here and there restlessly and he then went towards and said teasingly: Bhai ko dhoondh rahi ho bhabhi....

Bondita looked at him surprised and uttered nervously: Haan.. nahi wo... Hum toh bas aise hi....

Rudra then: Acchaaa...Waise.... wo apne room me hai..... Room toh aapko pata hi hai....

Just then Aarav called Rudra and he went.

Bondita then: Yeh sahi mauka hai.... Abhi jakar.... Sach bata dete Hain....

And she took her steps towards his room.

In Anirudh's Room
He was brushing his hairs. Bondita entered and closed the door.

He turned around surprised: Bondita... Tum yahan iss waqt....

He then dramatically showing his hand: Oyee... Wahi ruko.... He then turned around ...Haldi ke baad dulha dulhan nahi milte hai... Bhool gayi.....

Bondita then walking towards him: Aapko thitholi soojh rahi hai....

Anirudh turned around and laughed: Accha sorry... Kya hua.... Aise achanak.... mere kamre me aane ki kya jarurat aa padi....

Bondita then: Hume aapko... Ek sacchai batani hai.....

Anirudh confused: Kaisi sacchai....

Bondita then: Yeh ki hum hi....

But they were interrupted by a knock on the door.

Anirudh then in haste: Bondita.... Jaldi chupo.... Kisine tumhe yahan dekh liya toh... Problem ho jaogi....
He looked towards the bathroom door and he dragged her and locked her inside the bathroom.

He then composing himself opened the door and saw Dadi standing there.

Anirudh then: Ji Dadi?....

Dadi then asked: Tune Bondita ko dekha?....

Anirudh then nervously: Haan.... matlab..... Na... Nahi.... Nahi toh.... Mera matlab abhi Mehek bhabhi ke kamre ki taraf jaa rahi thi.... Tab dekha......

Dadi then: Accha theek hai.... Par tujhe itna paseena kyun aa raha hai.... Kahi Bondita... Yahi toh nahi....

Anirudh eyes grew wide: Nahi... Nahi Dadi.... Kya aap bhi... Wo yahan nahi hai.....

Dadi still not convinced: Theek hai....

Dadi then left and he closed the door and sighed.

Bondita came out in haste hearing the door closing.

Bondita then: Anirudh Ji... Ek baar humari baat sun lijiye... Bohot zaroori hai...

Anirudh then while holding her shoulders: Bondita.... Dekho Dadi ko abhi bhi Shaq hai.... Wo kisi na kisi ko bhejengi..... Yahan phir se dhoondhne ke liye..... Hum baad me baat karte hain... Ok.....

Bondita again: Par....

Anirudh then held her face: Bondita... Hum baad me baat karenge pakka... Tum Jahan bologi wahan baat karenge.... Par abhi please jao....

Just then he saw from the window Samaira coming

Anirudh then: Samaira aa rahi hai... Please Jao....

Bondita nodded sadly and sneaked out from the room.

Bondita secretly went to Mehek's room.

Mehek came to the the room and saw her.
Mehek then: Aree... Tum yahan ho.... Mai kanse tumhe dhoondh rahi hu....

Bondita then: Haan wo... Mai bas.... Washroom ke liye aayi thi....

Mehek then: Koi ni... Ab jaldi neeche chalo... Mehendi wali aagayi hai... Mehendi ki rasam shuru karni hai... Chalo...

She held her hand and left.

The Mehendi Girl started applying mehendi on her hands.

She then asked: Aapke hone Wale pati ka naam?...

Bondita then replied: Anirudh....

She then wrote Anirudh's name and left.

Bondita looked his name written on her hand and tears filled her eyes.

In the evening.

Anirudh gets a call: What... Ok... Mai abhi aa raha hu....

Bondita was sitting in Mehek's room near the window.

She saw Anirudh going somewhere and immediately she ran down

She called him from behind: Anirudh Ji..... Anirudh Ji... Rukiye....

Anirudh turned hearing her voice.

Bondita then: Anirudh Ji.... Humari baat bohot zaroori hai... Please ek baar sun lijiye....

Anirudh then: Bondita... Abhi Mai jis kaam se Jaa Raha hu.... Wo aur bhi zyada zaroori hai.....

Bondita downed her her face. Anirudh held her shoulders: Bondita... Meri tarf dekho.... She looked at him... Mai iss waqt bohot zaroori kaam se Jaa Raha hu.... Hum kal pakka baat karenge.. hmm?..

Bondita nodded and he left softly pecking her forehead.

In Police Station
Anirudh reached.
Shukla came towards him and saluted him: Jai Hind Sir....

Anirudh then: Jai Hind... Kya information mili hai....

Shukla replied: Sir.. Saari families mil gayi Hain... Ji ne uss looteri dulhan ne loota hai....

Shukla nodded and they went to the investigation cabin where the families were seated.

Anirudh then asked them: Kuch batao uss looteri dulhan ke baare me....

One of them: Sir bohot Sundar thi hayeeee.....

Anirudh rolled his eyes.

Another one: Khud ko haath tak nahi lagane deti thi....

Another one: Haa Sir... Maine bhi kabhi use haath nahi lagaya.....

And all the others in chorus: Haa Sir.....

Anirudh irritated: Shut Up....

They went mum getting scared.
He then whispered to Samar: Aise pagal logon se accha.... Insaan bhaag hi Jaye.... Stupid.....

Samar chuckled.

Anirudh then: Uski kuch harkate batao... Stupid....

One of them then: Sir uske Baal kaale the.... Uski naak choti thi..... Pyaari si Uska favorite hero tha.... Salman Khan..... Uski favorite colour..... Black tha.....

Anirudh then in his mind: Yeh sab toh... Bondita ki pasand hai....

Another one then: Gehri kali aankhe thi uske.... Height medium si thi... Aapke kandhe ke thoda sa upar aayegi......

Anirudh then in mind: Ye sab toh bilkul Bondita jaisi.... Kahi mai jo soch raha hu wo sach.... Nahi nahi nahi.... Meri Bondita aisa nahi kar sakti.....

Just then Shukla came running: Sir... Sir.....

Anirudh confused: Kya hua Shukla....

Shukla then: Sir.... Ek photo mili hai.... Delhi ki ek family ne di hai....

Anirudh then: Unhe kahan se mili....

Shukla then replied: Ladke ne chupke se kheenchi thi....

He then gives the photo to him.
