The flaming sun had brought a new day and the colorful glow of the morning light contained new hopes. The whole house filled with new enthusiasm and Sameer and Naina's new day started with a pleasant excitement.

They were ready to leave for the airport. Ramdhari had already kept their luggages in the car. Sameer took the blessing of nanaji standing by closing his eyes in front of his Nanaji's photo frame.

"Naina chale... tum ready ho na." He turned his face towards stairs.

But Naina already stood beside him and dipped her head.

Just then Munna entered in the house. And Samaina's face soured pale to think if again this time any emergency.

Munna sensed their fear and made them relax about his talk. "Daro mat iss baar koi bad news nahi hai... mai to tum dono ko best wishes dene aur airport drop karne aaya hun."

Sameer sighed in relief and glared Munna. "Tune to jaan hi nikal di thi, koun aisa sakal leke aata hai... chal ab jaldi kar kahi humari flight na chut jaaye."

He looked at Naina. "Naina sab bag rakh liye na kuch rah to nahi gaya ek baar check kar lo... phir chalate hai." She replied with smile. "kuch nahi hai."

After few minutes all left for the airport. Sameer and Naina sitting on the back seat. He tried to hold her hands but she jerked his hand as Munna was with them and he making a cute face requesting her. Munna noticed his sulky face through rear mirror. He enjoyed his condition and thought to tease him.

"Sameer ek gadbad ho gai yaar." Munna said making a tense face.

"Ab Kya gadbad ho gai... jaldi bata." He asked.

"Sharma industries ko kal jo quotation bhejane hai... un paper par tere sign lena bhul gaya...Yaar." Munna said for tease him.

All his romance crumbled and the focus shifted to Munna.

"Kya?." Sameer stunned hearing him. "Maine kal hi tujhe kaha tha...Mere sign kahi aur chahiye kya... par uss time to chup tha." He was frustrated and shouted him. "Gayi ye trip bhi...Munna tu na lagta hai kabhi mera honeymoon hone hi nahi dega."

Naina was flushed as Sameer openly talked about honeymoon and looked down
and stopped him. "Sameer kyo gussa kar rahe hai...Munna bhaiya ne jaan bujhakar galti thode na ki hogi."

"Tum to chup hi raho ... bahut achcha kaam kiya hai na ki iski aarti utari jaye." He was pissed off of his carelessness.

Munna was enjoyed at his fuming and drive the car swiftly. Naina was calming down him pressing his palm but he tried to jerk her hold and she did not leave his hands.

"Ab batayega karna kya hai... hum Delhi jaaye ya nahi ...Munna maharaj ji." He asked clenching his jaw and folded his hands.

"Nishchit rup se jaoge Delhi balak... dekho airport bhi aa gaya." Munna replied stopping the car in the parking lot.

Sameer saw him in shock and asked worriedly. "Aur sign wo koun karega."

"Koun sa sign... Wo to tune kal hi kar diya tha." Munna said getting down of the car.

Sameer also got down of the car and opened Naina side door and amazed. "Matlab tu mere maze le raha tha."

"Tujhe kya laga iss baar tera honeymoon cancel hone deta... nahi yaar... tu mera bhai hai aur teri khushi ke liye to kuch bhi kar sakta hun... ab befikar ho ke jaa aur yahan ki tension mujhe par chod de." Munna said embracing him.

"Thank you yaar." He said parted him.

"Happy journey bhabhi.." Munna wished.

"Thank you bhaiya." Naina thanked.

************

Sameer held Naina hands as they entered the airport. She was surprised seeing the airport first time and a bit nervousness appeared on her face that she clutched his arms tightly, looking around. He chuckled seeing her happy but scared face.

Sameer completed all the formalities and they both boarded the flight after checking. Naina's happiness was no bound when she was sitting on the window seat. He helped her to fasten her seat belt.

"Naina." He whispered softly leaning on her ears as she was busy to look outside.

She turned her face and almost her lips touched his cheek. Her eyes widened to realize their closeness and embarrassed.

"Wo... sorry mera dhayan nahi tha." She apologized shifting away from him.

But he held her wrist and wrapped his arm around her. "Sorry kyo... mai to chahunga ye galti tum roj roj karo..." And asked peeking into her eyes. "Janti ho kyo?."

His deep husky voice made her unsettle and her heart hammered. "N.. nahi." She just uttered.

"Kyonki isi bahane mujhe tumse meetha jo mil jaayega." Touching his cheek repiled.

"Chhodiye na Sameer koi dekh lega...Hum flight me hai apne room me nahi jo aisi harkaten kar rahe hai." She made a angry face.

"Dekho sab apne me busy hai... aur mai apni wife ke saath romance kar raha hun jiska mujhe full license hai... Samjhi Mrs. Maheshwari." He said looking at around.

"Please na aise achcha nahi lagta... sab ke samne." She pleaded with shy face.

As his first priority was her comfort and he sat straight on his seat holding her hands. He felt contentment as she gave him a joyous smile. He had successful to distract her mind. He showed her towards the window.

"Naina dekho ab hum hawa me hai." He said showing his fingers towards the window.

"Kya...Matlab hum ne take off kar liya." Naina ashotinsed as she was at first very frightened thinking about take off but now she was overjoyed, she was in the air. She looked outside of the window and screamed. "Sameer yahan se sab kitna chota chota dikh raha hai. " After sometime she said. "Aur ab to sirf badal hi dikh raha hai..."

"kyonki hum bahut unchai par hai... jab landing hoga tab dekhana sab kitna beautiful dikhata hai." Sameer asked her. "Tumhe kuch khana hai."

"Nahi...bas bahar dekhana hai... in baadalon me." She again turned her eyes towards window.

Sameer was frowned as she was more interested looking outside rather than him. He tried to focus her attention to him. "Naina suno to meri baat." But she cut him and said. "Please Sameer bahar dekhane dijiye na... jo bhi baat hai mai baad me sunugi." She was lost looking outside view.

He felt jealous of the view that took his place and he tried to sleep, just then a airhosted approached to him and asked in her sweet voice. "May I can help you sir."

"No.." And something strucked in his mind and said loudly that his wife could hear it. "Wait... Please can you bring me a strong coffee but sweet... like you."

"Sure sir... Please a one minutes." The airhosted replied.

Naina eyes popped up as heard her husband flirting with other girl in front of her and she threw a deathly glare to him when he turned to look at her reaction.

He gulped down and uttered with unaffected look. "Kya hua Naina... aise kyo dekh rahi ho."

"Kya tha wo..." She asked sternly.

"Ab kya kare jaan... tum bahar ka view dekhane me busy thi to... koi to chahiye na mujhe bhi time paas ke liye." He replied but inside scared thinking her outburst.

Before Naina could say anything the airhostead returned with coffee. "Sir your coffee... if you want anything more." She asked with a dazzling smile.

"No... Nothing... thank you... for a perfect coffee." He replied while sipping coffee and returned a soft smile to the airhosted. He was not going to leave Naina easily as he wanted to see her jealous side.

"Sir may i know your name..." The airhosted asked and this time Sameer looked at her with shock. The airhosted instantly said. "If I am not wrong, you are Sameer Maheshwari... right." She asked hesitantly.

"Yaa...but how do you recognize me...." Sameer said with a surprise smile.

"Shayad tumne mujhe pahchana nahi... mai Riya Mittal... Tumhari Nainital wali friend." The airhosted replied with a wide smile.

Sameer was shocked as knew about the girl and said surpisingly. "What a pleasant surprise Riya... you look totally changed... maine to socha nahi tha us din ke baad tumse aise mulakat hogi."

"Maine bhi..." She bent down and hugged him tightly.

He felt awkward and quickly pulled her apart. He turned back to look Naina who was staring at them in shock. He feared sensing her anger.

"Riya... ye." He wanted to introduce Naina but Riya interrupted him saying. "Sorry Sameer us din mai tumse mile bina hamesha ke liye chali gai... Kyonki mai tumse milti to shayad kabhi nahi jaa pati... tumhe to pata hai mai tumse kitni attached thi... us din papa ne achanak aakar bataya ki hame turant nikalana hoga... Kyonki papa ko london se job ka offer aaya tha."

"Never mind Riya..." Sameer said as was not interested listening her story.

"No Sameer... ek dost ka farz hai ki dusre dost se mil kar jaaye aur phir hamara rishtaa to dosti se badkar tha... yaad hai tumhe kaise tum class me mujhe hi dekhate rahte the jab maine new join kiya tha aur hamesha mere aage pichhe gumte rahte the... bhale hi hamara saath sirf teen saal ka tha par.. par hamari pairing sab ko maat deti thi... hum best couple the." Riya said excitedly.

"Riya wo bachpan ki baatein thi... ab sab kuch badal gaya hai." Sameer was uneasy the way Riya told their friendship in front of Naina.This could have had a negative impact on their relationship.

"Riya... mai..." But Riya again interrupted him for introducing Naina.

"Well, I have a question... you are single na... Then I am available for you any time, any moment, any where." Riya winked you.

Sameer looked at Naina quickly and his heart wrenched to see the pain which reflected in her innocent face and fear bubbling in her deep eyes and her eyes was ready to brimming but she was held it.

He cursed himself why he did this to make Naina jealous and why he did not introduce Naina earlier. This time he did not want to any misunderstanding with her so quickly introduce Naina. "Riya... meet her." He said wrapping his hands around Naina shoulder pulling towards him with full rights. "My wife, my life, my love...Naina...Mrs. Naina Sameer Maheshwari."

Riya looked crestfallen when Sameer introducing his wife and her expression changed a little. But hiding her pain, she greeted Naina And stretched her hands towards her. "Nice to meet Naina..."

"Mujhe bhi khushi hui... aap Sameer ki best friend hai." Naina gave her a faded smile and asked.

"Haan hum best friend the school time me..." Riya replied softly and turned to Sameer. "Sameer kitne saal ho gaye tumhari wedding ko."

"Approximately 15 days... sorry tumhara address pata nahi tha... varna tumhe shaadi me jarur invite karta..." He regretted to not call her his marriage.

"By the way love marriage hai ya arranged." Riya asked curiously.

He smiled looking at Naina with utmost love and replied. "Love marriage."

"Awww... mujhe laga tha maine chance miss kar diya par yahan to koi chance hi nahi tha... you look good together like made for each other." Riya said with genuine smile and praised them.

"Thanks...par tum airhosted kaise." Sameer asked.

"You know i am adventure person so i try it... but you have changed your habit and choice too." Riya commented him with bit sarcastic way.

"Time has changed everything." Sameer stated.

Just then someone called out Riya and she excused them. "Okay Sameer baad me milte hai."

As Riya left Naina stared her retreating figure, as she was perfect every way. She was tall, slim, fair, pretty face and perfect figure that anyone would like her at first sight. And a unknown fear was build up her heart after knowing that her husband had a girlfriend in his school time and he shared a great bond and good friendship with her.

With that Naina removed his arms around her and again focused her mind out of window as tried to forget all things.

"Naina tum theek ho na." He asked worriedly because he knew she was not fine. He could comprehend her state of mind after what she had just known.

"Haan mai theek hun." She replied giving him a faint smile.

"Naina wo Riya... aise achanak se tumhe mere past ke baare me pata chala... Sorry." He apologized feeling guilty for hiding about Riya.

"Sameer please sorry mat boliye ... wo aapka past hai jiske baare me batana na batana your wish." She said plainly.

"Lekin Naina." He objected.

But she stopped him placing her palm over his hands and leaned on his shoulder closing her eyes.

He did not stretch this topic anymore and rested his head on her. But he knew she was not a normal. A turmoil was inside her that hurting her. She was not showing just for him.

In the moment flight landed, he woke up her. "Naina utho Delhi aa gaya."

Naina opened her eyes and surprised. "Kya." She immediately looked outside and frowned knowing thar they had already landed. "Sameer aapne uthaya kyo nahi... mujhe landing ke time neeche ka view dekhana tha."

He held his ears and mouthed. "Sorry."

She downed his hands and changing her expression said. "Chale...i am excited to see your home."

He sensed something missing in her voice and no joy that he had felt in Ahemdabad. He pondered. "Lagta hai Riya ki baatein iske dil me baith gai hai... tabhi to kab se mera sasural kah rahi thi wo ab mera ghar ho gaya... Naina aise udas to tumhe mai ghar nahi le jaunga... Tumhare mann se ye dar nikalana hi hoga... lekin uske liye kya karu..."

He started to think what he do that he would find his Naina back and would return her smile. But his trance broke as she called out his name. "Sameer... Chalana nahi hai."

Sameer also got up from his seat. As they both came out of the airport. Sameer hired a car when they both settle in the car, he requested her. "Naina mai tumhe kahi le jana chahata hun."

"Sameer kahi jaane ki ichchha nahi hai... ghar hi chalate hai na." She denied.

"Please Naina... bas thodi der...Mere liye." He requested.

"Theek hai." She agreed reluctantly as after meet Riya her happiness had vanished.

*************

They both reached a place half an hour and seeing the place Naina was stunned, no words came out from her mouth. Sameer noticed her face showing the different emotions every passing seconds. After sometime she asked.

"Sameer hum yahan kyo aaye hai."

"Hamari sabse khubsurat yaadein taza karne aur kuch nayi yaadein banane... tum waha baitho jaha hum pichhali baar baithe the, mai bas do minute me aaya." He gestured her to go inside giving her a soft smile.

Naina nooded her head in yes.

Then he requested the car driver to stay sometime and he pulled out his mobile, called someone and requested something with the person. Then he went to Naina carrying a pleasing smile on his face.

He knelt down in front of her and holding her hands, kissed her palm gently and said in a soft voice. "Naina yahin jagah hai jahan hamane ek dusre se apne pyaar ka izhaar kiya tha.. ye jagah jitna tumhare liye special hai utna mere liye bhi...aur jab hum yahan dobara aaye hai to mai chahata ki ghar jaane se pahle hum iss jagah par hamare best moment ko phir se jeeye aur kuch nayi yaadein banaye... aur iss baar inn palon ko as a best memories camere me kaid kar le." And he pulled out a camara in his pocket.

Naina was amazed of his thinking and looked at him with moist eyes. As Sameer had brought her India Gate... there they both had confessed their love to each other. She pleased to know about his perspective but became disappointed to think Riya again.

"Iski kya zarurat thi Sameer..." She was reluctant as Riya words did not leave her mind.

"Kya tum nahi chahati ki hamare paas yahan ki kuch yaadgar photo ho jinhe hum hamare bachho ko dikha sake ki maine unki mumma ko kaise propose kiya tha... us din to ek dar tha ki tum haan kahogi ya nahi... Par aaj mai confident hun... tum haan hi kahogi." He said with a mischievous smile.

Sameer stopped a boy who was mid 20 and requested him to take some photos. He first knelt down and held her hands looking at her eyes and proposed her as like that he first time proposed her. Then he sat with her on the bench and got few photos clicked. After that they both got up and got some photos clicked with different poses and some photos with India Gate as the memories.

After getting the photo clicked, they both again sat down on the bench and Sameer said in a loving voice looking at her. "Naina...I love you."

She couldn't hold her tears anymore and she crushed in his arms hiding her face. At first Sameer did not understand what she did and he secured her wrapping his arms. He felt some wetness and patted her back. After a while parted her and cupped her face.

"Naina tumhare andar kyo hai ye dar... kya tumhe lagta hai tumhara Sameer tumhe dhokha dega..." He asked with fear. "mujhe laga tha ye mera past hai jiski koi importance nahi hai... par mai galat tha Naina, kisi bhi relationship me puri transparency honi chahiye... mujhe shaadi se pahle hi sab baatein clear kar deni chahiye thi."

His words left her dumbfounded and she looked him with astonishment.

"Tumhe puri baat janna hai..." He asked.

She shook her head in no but he determined to reveal everything. "Nahi Naina ab mai aur koi galti nahi karna chahata.... mai sab misunderstanding clear karna chahata hun."

He started to tell his past. "Naina wo age hi aisi tha... Infatuation hona common tha... ghar se dur, na koi samjhane wala... aur phir dosto ki baatein in sab me aakar apna charm aazmane ki chah me mai Riya ko impress karne laga... wo hamare class ki sabse khubsurat ladki thi... use class join kiye bas kuch hi din hue the...

Riya ne jab school join kiya tha tab mai 9th class me tha... uski khubsurti dekhkar mere dost mujhe chidhane lage ki agar maine use impress kar liya to manenge ki mera charm kisi ko bhi attract kar sakta hai... aur isliye class me use roj dekhata rahta tha.... jab Riya se dosti hui tab pata chala ki wo dil ki bahut saaf hai bilkul tumhari tarah, phir hamari dosti ho gai. Hum aksar kahi bhi saath dikh jaate the... isse logon ne gossip shuru kar diya ki hum couple hai aur ye baat pure school me phail gai...Hum jis age me the ye baat hame proud feel karati thi... to hamne bhi iska oppose nahi kiya....Jab hum 11th class me the Riya ek din school chhod kar chali gai...Shuru me mujhe uski bahut yaad aati thi aur bura bhi laga tha lekin time ke saath mai use bhulne laga."

Naina looked at him in disbelief but stay quiet and seeing her cold reaction he said again.

"Naina it's just a infatuation nothing else... tabhi to dekho na kuch din use yaad karne ke baad mai to uske baare me puri tarah se bhul gaya tha, par tum Naina... tumse panch saal dur rahne ke baad bhi tumhe nahi bhul paya aur na hi tumhare liye meri feeling me koi changes aaya balki ye to time ke saath aur badhata gaya...Naina Riya ke saath jo meri feeling thi wo pyaar nahi tha... mera pahla aur aakhari pyaar tum ho... to apne mann se ye dar nikal do ki mai tumhe kabhi bhi kisi ke liye chhod dunga...No way my beautiful wife." He told her the phase of his school life and revealed his friendship with Riya that was only infatuation or maybe attraction.

She stared at him with extreme surprise, the way Sameer revealed his past which eliminated her feeling of insecure.

He found still lost her in some thought, he tried to convince her. "Mere mann me uske liye koi feeling nahi hai... Trust me Naina." His voice choked.

"Par shayad Riya ke dil me hai Sameer." She uttered.

"Achcha.... agar koi feeling hoti na Riya ke dil me to ab tak mere paas aa gai hoti...Use mere dono jagah ke address pata the.... aur bhi kuch doubt hai to batao...aaj mai tumhari har misunderstanding clear karke rahunga aur hum ghar tabhi jayenge jab meri Naina mujhe vapas mil jayegi, jo mujhse pyaar karti hai... shaq nahi." He felt disheartened to see her doubt on him.

"Sorry Sameer...mai dar gai thi, mujhe aap par pura bharosa hai, par apni kismat par nahi... kahi koi aapko mujhse chheen na le... bahut intezaar ke baad maine aapko paya hai... aur mai aapki hi Naina hun.. jo aap se bahut pyaar karti hai jahan shaq ki koi gunjaaish hi nahi." She regretted of her over thinking about Riya and made him feel happy.

"Ye hui na baat... chale ab tumhare sasural... jahan mere pariwar wale unki bahu ka intezaar kar rahe hai." He said poking her head. This time he saw a pure trust on him in her eyes.

As they got up from the bench Sameer commented. "Naina tum iss saree me kayamat tha rahi ho."

"Chaliye hatiye... sharam nahi aati aisi baatein karte huye." She blushed and pushed him slightly.

"Isme sharam kaisi... apni wife ki hi to tarif kar raha hun." He whispered in a husky voice.

************

Sameer and Naina reached Somani house and they both got down from the taxi. A guard approached them and greeted Sameer cheerfully.

"Sameer bhaiya bahut dino baad yaad aai hamari... aur ye hamari bhabhi ji hai na... bahut pyaari hai." The guard asked.

"Haan Raju... par pahle tu saman taxi se utar le." He ordered Raju and gave the fare of taxi to the taxi driver. Then he turned to Naina. "Andar chalo Naina."

As soon as Naina stepped inside the main gate her heart started beating fast and she glanced the whole mansion quickly. She became nervous as for the first time she was coming her sasural where her in-law's lived.

When they reached the main door of the house Sameer rang the bell. Vishakha opened the door and surprised but stopped them at the door.

"Ruko tum dono vahi par." And disappeared in the house.

Naina was amazed and glanced at Sameer but he smiled, she raised her brow and before he could say anything Vishakha came back with a servant holding a aarti thal.

Vishakha placed a rice kalash on the threshold and Sameer covered her head with the pallu of her sari. Naina just stood dumbfounded and Vishakha performed aarti for both of them and said Naina to enter the house by pushing the Kalash with her right foot.

Naina was overwhelmed to see herself being welcomed as a newly bride. She touched Vishakha feet but she stopped her and hugged her saying this. "Kaisi hai meri beti...ye mera buddhu tera khayal rakhata to hai na." Vishakha asked her complaining tone.

Sameer could not resist his emotions and hugged his mother along with Naina. "Thank you mummy."

Vishakha parted them and showed a fake anger. "Tune pahle kyo nahi bataya..."

"Pahle bata deta to aapke chehare ki ye muskan thode na dekh pata." His face beamed with pleasure.

"Mummy maine to pahle hi kahan tha." Naina said with a naughty smile.

"Achha aate hi side change kar liya." He gave her amused smile.

"Par mummy apne itni jaldi taiyari kaise kar liya." Naina was curious to see her arrangement in the short of period.

"Iss buddhu ne bataya tha abhi kuch der pahle... agar pahle bata diya hota to mai achchhe se taiyari karti aur sab mil kar Naina ka welcome karte." Vishakha felt guilty to not arrange a perfect welcome for her daughter in-law.

"Phir surprise ka kya maza aata hai na Naina." Sameer chuckled.

And he remembered when he called his mother at India Gate to return her happiness and to remove her insecurities.

"Mummy mai Sameer bol raha hun." As Vishakha pick up the call sameer said.

"Haa sameer bolo iss time call kiya... koi emergency hai beta." Vishakha concerned.

"Wo mummy hum ghar aa rahe hai." He said.

Vishakha was taken aback as she had no knowledge anything and asked in fear. "Sab theek hai na kahi tum dono ki ladai to nahi hui."

"Sab theek hai mummy wo meri ek meeting hai yahan Delhi me to mai aur Naina Delhi aaye hai...aur kuch der me ghar pahuchane wale hai." He informed her of their arrival.

"Kya tum Delhi me ho... Aur tu ab bata raha hai." She was shocked as he told her that they were both in Delhi.

"Wo mummy mai chahata hun aap Naina ka pure reeti riwaj se swagat karo jaise Ahmedabad me kiya tha ek nai bahu ki tarah ....Please." He requested.

"Tu nahi kahta tab bhi karti.. pagal...Ab jaldi se meri bahu ko leke aa..." She was overjoyed.

"Haan mummy hum bas ek ghante me pahunch jayenge...Naina ko mai kahi aur laya tha." He was delighted to know his mother too excited for welcome Naina with whole rituals.

"Theek hai jaldi aana." Vishakha beamed.

Vishakha voice pulled his out of his trance. "Sameer tum dono thak gaye honge... jao Rohan ke room me, fresh ho jana... saman Keshav pahucha dega."

For a moment Sameer was shocked by her words. "Rohan ke room me kyo." He perplexed.

"Beta Rohan ne uske room me rahne se mana kar diya... use bahut samjhaya par nahi mana aur ab uss room me shift ho gaya hai jahan tum aur papa rahte the." Vishakha informed him about Rohan decision to shift another room.

"Mummy mujhe kyo nahi bataya... mai use samjhata... bahut jiddi hai." Sameer said with sadness.

"Rohan ne tumhe batane se mana kiya tha... uska kahna hai wo room ab se tumhara hai aur tumhara hi rahega chahe tum kaho bhi raho." Vishakha said.

"Pagal hai bilkul aisa thode na hota hai... Mummy mai uske room mai nahi rah sakta wo room uska hai aur wahan Rohan hi rahega... sham ko aane dijiye mai use samjhauga... hum dono guest room me hi rahenge." Sameer declared his decision seeing his wife who giving her a approving smile.

Vishakha knew his son was stubborn so she had no choice to argue anymore this topic and she instructed to Keshav place their luggage to the guest room. She told them both to freshen up.

As soon as Sameer and Naina went to guest room Vishakha slipped on the sofa and recalled the moment when Sameer had told her he was coming home with Naina. She had overjoyed of this news as her son was coming with his wife for the first time and this moment was very precious for her but at the same time a fear had englfuled in her heart thinking about her mother-in-law reaction. She had not wanted this time, his son get any pain from his step grandmother. And she had strode to her mother-in-law room with a determination.

She knocked her room and after permission she had entered with a confident face. She said directly without any pretext. "Mummy ji aaj Sameer Naina ke saath ghar aa raha hai."

Dadi was shocked as she was thinking now maybe he would come here now but hiding her hate for him she said carelessly. "Vishakha to mujhe kyo bata rahi ho, tumhara beta hai tum jano... kahi tum chahati ho ki mai un dono ka sawagat karu."

"Nahi mammy ji... mai aapse ye ummeed kar bhi nahi sakti... aap janti hai Sameer ne apne pariwar ko chhod kar Ahemdabad me rahne ka phaisala kyo liya." Vishakha said with utmost hatred with her.

"Mujhe kya pata... Jiddi aur mann mauji to pahle se hi tha ab shaadi ke baad use aazadi chahiye hogi jo use yahan rah kar nahi milti...Ya ho sakta hai uski patni ne pariwar ke saath rahne se mana kiya hoga taki use badon ki seva na karna pade." Dadi spilt out venom about Sameer and Naina.

Hearing her words Vishakha anger raised and said in a stern voice. "Mera beta to apne pariwar ke saath rahna chahata tha... lekin aapki ek galat soch ne use ye phaisala lene par mazboor kiya hai...Uske iss phaisale ki vajah aap aur sirf aap hai mummy ji." Vishakha got emotional how could a person so mean only for her selfishness.

"Ye kya bakwaas kar rahi ho tum... maine nahi kaha use ki Ahmedabad me rahe." Dadi infuriated to see raising a hands towards her.

"Aap ne nahi kaha ki... aap un dono ki shaadi tikne nahi dengi...Sameer ko Naina se dur kar dengi aur aapki baatein sunakar mera Sameer saham gaya, kahi aap uski khushi... uski Naina ko usse dur na kar do... kyo kiya aapne aisa mummy ji aapki mere bete se kya dushmani hai." Vishakha asked her as she had wanted to ask only to return from Ahmedabad but she kept quiet only sake for her family but today when she came to know that Sameer is coming. She couldn't resist herself to ask.

"Maine aisa kuch nahi kaha... wo jhuth bol raha hai use hamare saath rahna nahi tha aur aise bahane bana raha hai." Dadi protested.

"Bas mummy ji ab aur jhuth nahi... aaj mera beta kuch dinon ke liye apne pariwar ke saath rahne aa raha hai... mai chahati hun aap un dono se dur rahe aur unke beech koi galatfahmi dalne ki koshish na kare... varna phir mujhe bhi, ye baat Rohan aur Deepika ko batane me def nahi lagegi ki Sameer ke Ahmedabad me rahne ke pichhe aap hai...uske baad aap Rohan aur Deepika ki nafrat sah payegi... soch lijiyega... to aapki bhalai isi me hai ki mere Sameer aur uski khushiyon se aap dur rahe... ye aap ke liye aur sab ke liye achcha hoga... iss baar mai kisi ko bhi mere bete ke khushiyon ke beech nahi aane dungi." Vishakha warned her that she would tell both her children of their grandmother's conspiracy against their brother Sameer.

She walked out of the room leaving Dadi rooted on her spot.

Her thought broke by Deepika chirping voice. "Mummy kis soch me dubi ho." Deepika was back of school.

Vishakha was back to the present and she was about to tell Sameer and Naina but stay quiet and thought to give her a surprise like her. She said to her. "Kuch nahi jaa jaldi se fresh ho ke aaja lunch karne... aur ha aate time guest room me jo guest aaye hai unko bhi bula lena."

Deepika amazed. "Koun aaya hai mummy."

"Tu khud dekh lena... ab jaa jaldi." Vishakha ordered her hiding her joy.

Climbing the stairs, Deepika reached her room. She was thinking all the way who might come.

*************

Next part will be next weekend.
