'Arre Rao aap yaha humare kamre Mein aaiye naa waha Kyun khade hai aap.' Kashi said controlling her emotions and tears and cleaned her old tears which managed to fell down from her eyes.

'Kyun tumhe itna aashcharya Kyun ho rha hai Kashi tum nhi chahti thi ki hum aapke kamre mein aaye.' Bajirao Teased unknown to the fact that his words will hurt his wife so much.

'Nhi to aesa kuch nhi hai Rao, woh to humane socha ki aap iss wakt Mastani ke saath honge.' She said passing him a tightly fake smile and cleaned his tears with her thumb.

'Yeh aasu Kyun hai aapke ki aankho mein Rao? Yeh aanso to humare aankho ke liye banne hai naa.' She says looking at him with her doe shaped eyes ocean filled eyes which were all red because of her continuous cry.

'Woh sab chhodiye Rao. Aap aaiye aur yaha bethe hum aapko shri krishn ki aur rukmani ki kahani sunate hai.' She said holding his muscular hand in her soft ones making him sit on her bed.
