Next day ,

Bela woke up .... she was having headache because of excessive crying ...

She found Mahir lying on the couch...He was just about to fall down from the couch ...

Unknowingly Bela made him lie properly on the couch and covered him with duvet ...

She saw Bani's picture in his hands ...

Bela took the picture in her hands ...

Bela: Kitni lucky ho tum Bani ...Mahir kitna pyaar karta hai tumse aaj bhi ....kyu gai tum use chodke ?? Naa tum jaati aur na Mahir ko mere saath iss zabaradasti ki shaadi me bandhna padta  ...

She kept it aside and went to the washroom to freshen up ...

She came out of the washroom rubbing her hairs which were wet ....

She was drying her wet hair with hair dryer ...

Mahir opened his eyes ...

He saw Bela and was just staring her ...

Bela also looked at him through the mirror ...

His eyes met her eyes and they both were lost ...
They shared an eyelock♥️

The trance was broken when Sumi entered their room ...

Sumi: Mahir , Bela tum dono tyaar nahi hue kya abhi tak??

Mahir: bas nahane hi jaa raha hu Maa ...

Sumi: suno ....tyaar ho jao jaldi because tum dono ko humari kul devi ke mandir jaana hai ....

Mahir: wahi jo jungle ke uss paar hai...

Sumi: Ha wahi ...

Mahir: maa par last time to gaya tha na mai Bani ke saath ...to iss baar ...

Sumi: kaisi baatein kar rahe ho Mahir....shaadi hui hai tumhari Bela ke saath ...tum dono maano ya naa mano ...but you are husband and wife aur tumhe saare rituals complete karne honge aur Bela ko wo sabhi rights bhi milenge jo Kabhi Bani ke the ...

Bela: ok Maa ...we will go ...

Sumi: Chalo tumhe 1 ghante me nikalna hai and you have to return before evening ...

Sumi left the room...

Mahir: Bela pls koi zabaradasti nahi hai ....

Bela: Maine maa ke liye haa kari hai ....u go and get ready ...I am waiting for u ..

After few minutes  ...Mahir came downstairs..
They both took Blessings from sumi and Andy and left for the temple ...

Mahir was driving and Bela was looking outside the car ...

There was an awkward silence between these 2 ...

They reached near the jungle ....

Mahir: Jungle aa gaya ...yahan se hume chalke jaana hoga ...

Bela: it's fine ...

Mahir: but there is a ritual...

Bela: kya??

Mahir: aapko mere hath se hath milane chalana hoga aur jab tak hum temple nahi pahunch jaate ...you have to hold it ....

Mahir forwarded his hand towards her ...

Bela holds it ...

Mahir: aapko pata hai iss ritual ka matlab kya hai??

Bela: kya hai??

Mahir: yahan se maine aapka hath humesha ke liye thaam liya hai ...aur ab ye hath kabhi nahi chutega  ...
aisa maana jaata hai

Bela : chale ab??

Mahir: yaa let's go..

After walking some miles away ...

Bela got a thorn on her feet ...

Bela: aaahhhhh...

Mahir: kya hua Bela??

Oh god!! Ye Kanta kaha se aaya...kitni bleeding ho rahi hai...

He made her sit near a tree...

Bela was crying out of pain ...

Bela: Mahir ...its paining ...

Mahir: mai kuch karta hu ...

He removed that thorn from her feet ...

Bela clutched his shirt tightly.....

Bela: Mahir ...mai aage nahi chal sakti ...

Mahir: wait ...

He brought some leaves and crushed them and applied them on Bela's wound ...

Mahir: isse aapko aaram milega ...

Bela: par hum jaayenge kaise ...

Mahir thought for a while and picked Bela in his arms ...

Bela: ye kya kar rahe hai aap??

Mahir: mandir paas me hi hai ...hum jaldi pahunch jaayenge .....

Bela was just staring him in the whole journey ...

They both reached the temple....

They took blessings from the priest...

Priest : aap dono ye sindur mata ji ke charno me Arpit kar dijiye ...

Mahir took the sindur's plate in his hands...

Suddenly the air blowed and some sindoor was devoted to godess automatically and some sindoor was applied on Bela's hairline ...

Mahir: I am sorry Bela ...

Priest : ye to bahut accha Shagun hai ...
Mata ji ne aap dono ko aashirwaad dia hai ...aap dono ne ek dusre ko janam janam ke kiye paa lia hai ...

Behir were silent and just passed a smile ...

.....

Promo: Behir's adventures in the jungle and friendship began between them ...
