Everyone was slightly off mood while leaving form aashram... they enjoyed last few days in so much fun and relax with Nanu, Kaanji, Arjun, Shefali and others at aashram... even before they left so many people who are staying there came to meet them and gifted Naina and Preeti so many handmade gifts, as best of their ability... they blessed whole heartedly both the couples for a happy life ahead and wish to see them again soon...

Nanu blessed with heavy heart keeping girls in his embrace, "har saal yeh bachche aate the aur kuchh din ka pyaar dikha kar chale jaate the, mujhe akela chhod kar lekin kabhi man itna udaas nahin hua... aaj itne saalon baad tum donon ne aakar meri Sneha ki kami poori kar di... betiyon ke bina ghar kitna soona ho jaata hai... sach kahun toh iss baar man kar raha hai ki tum donon ko yahin apne paas rok lun... lekin kya karun, tumhare bina yeh donon yahaan se jaane se rahe... pata laga saara business chhod kar yahin baith gaye..." he said pointing to the sulky souls who were scared what if Nanu forced them to let the girls stay back with him for few more days...

Naina wiping his wet eyes, "Nanu hamara bhi man nahin aapke bina jaane ka... kaash aap bhi hamare saath chalte toh kisi ko dukhi nahin hona padta..."

Sameer leaving no chance to let her stay back said in a comforting tone, "lekin Nanu ne wada kiya hai ki voh jaldi hi hamare paas milne aayenge... infact, agar possible hua toh hum khud kuchh dinon mein Nanu ke paas aa jayenge milne..." he tried to comfort all seeing everyone so upset... in fact, he had already decided to come back here to reveal Naina's pregnancy news to Nanu very soon... but before that there are some matters which needs to be settle first...

Nanu laughed knowing his tact, "sab samjhta hoon mein tere bahane... khud toh saal mein ek baar aata hai aur wade bade bade..." he smiled looking at the girl sobbing in his arms, "ja chali ja saath varna yeh bhi nahin jaane wala... bas tum donon ek dusre ke saath aise hi khush raho mujhe isi mein tasalli hai..." he blessed all four of them to always remain happy and bid farewell with heavy heart...

After few hours' drive, they took a short break knowing that continuous drive can make Naina more tired in her current situation... they enjoyed and relish all homemade food packed by Kaanji while remembering all their fun moments...

Before heading ahead, Naina and Preeti went to take a quick round from washroom... coming back towards car, Naina asked, "Preeti ab toh koi phone nahin aaya na... dekh agar koi bhi aur pareshaani hai toh tu bata sakti hai..."

Preeti assured her, "nahin yaar... jabse Sameer ne kal lawyer se baat ki hai ab koi darr nahin bacha... mein bataa nahin sakti ki tum sab logon ke saath lagta hai jaise mera aaj bhi ek pariwaar hai... Pandit ne zindagi mein pyaar ki har kami poori kar di hai aur tu ek dost se badhkar ek bahen hai mere liye... and sabse best toh hai mere jijaji... jo apni biwi toh kya uski behen ki aankhon mein bhi aansu nahin dekh sakte" she teased her back making her smile...

Naina smiled encircling her hand on her shoulder, "ab jiski saali itni pyaari ho toh jijaji ko toh dhyaan rakhna hi padega na..."

They both laughed when Naina asked suddenly, "Preeti tujhe kuchh bataya Pandit ne... I mean kisi function ya party ke baare mein... mein do teen din se dekh rahi hoon, donon milkar koi secret planning mein busy hai, lekin puchho toh maun vrat rakh lete hai..."

Preeti shook her head, "kahaan yaar... mujhe bhi lag raha hai jaise donon kisi planning mein hai lekin ek dusre ke secrets kahaan batate hai... mujhe toh hairani hai ki Pandit ke pet mein khaane ke alawa bhi kuchh chhupa rah sakta hai... sach kahoon toh inn donon ki dosti dekh kar na jealousy hoti hai... kaasah hum donon bhi inki tarah bachpan se ek saath hote toh life mein kitna maja karte na..."

Naina suddenly feeling sad reminiscing her childhood when she was not allowed even to make any friend... hiding from her fake parents she gets friendly only with Kamya who also ditched her... she replied, "Preeti, bachpan mein toh nahin but I promise aane wali zindagi mein hum donon kabhi alag nahin honge... vaise bhi shaadi ke baad ek din tujhe bhi usi ghar toh aana hai... kitna maza aayega na jab ek taraf mein apne bhai ki baarat mein nachungi aur phir teri taraf se baarat ka swagat bhi mein hi karungi... mein toh donon taraf se enjoy karungi iss shaadi mein..." they both laughed imagining how much fun they can have with their loved ones around...

Naina, "vaise uncle aunty ne kuchh kaha kab shaadi karwa rahe hai tumhari... mere bechare bhai se toh intzaar hi nahin ho raha... tujhe nahin pata lekin tere aane se pehle unka udaas chehra dekha tha maine jab hum sab ek saath the... aur uspar Arjun bhaiya aur Sameer kitna chida rahe the unko..." she told her all their teasing to Pandit to be alone without his love...

Preeti feeling shy lowered her eyes, "hmm... voh aunty ne kaha hai ki shayad paanch mahine baad koi shubh mahurat hai... aur tab tak Pooja didi bhi aa sakengi India, apni delivery ke baad... aakhir ek hi toh behen hai Pandit ki... unke bina shaadi kaise hogi..."

She smiled whole heartedly, "tujhe pata hai Naina jab bhi mein Delhi se Jaipur apne parents ke paas jaati thi milne toh voh mere itne laad karte the ki puchh mat... mujhe toh laga tha ki zindagi mein ab koi nahin hoga jo mujhe aise pyaar karega, lekin Pandit ke parents bohot sweet hai... unke saath toh apne akele hone ka ehsaas hi nahin hota... lagta hai poora pariwaar hai hamare paas... aur baaki kasar tere aur Sameer ke saath poori ho jaati hai... aur Nanu se jo do hi dinon mein lagaav ho gaya hai uski toh baat hi alag hai... hum kitne lucky hai na jo itne pyaar karne wala pariwaar mila hai humein... dekhna jab tu bhi unse milegi toh khush ho jayegi... bas ab Pooja didi aur Munna bhaiya se milna rah gaya hai..." they both smiled thinking how easily they all gives them both a feel of family, never let them feel orphan...

Naina smiled recalling how all three boys loved their sister, "mujhe bhi bohot man hai Pooja didi se milne ka... in teenon doston ki jaan basti hai didi mein... achchha hai teri shaadi ke bahane unse milna bhi ho jayega... itna suna hai unke baare mein ki lagta hai jaise hamare saath hi ho... aur Munna bhaiya se bhi milna ho jayega na... mujhe toh lagta hai jab teeno dost mil jaayenge toh kahin humein hi na bhool jaaye... Nanu ne itne kisse bataye hai inn teenon ki badmashiyon ke ki puchh mat..."

They walked back towards parking seeing lots of cars were waiting for them... they didn't take any security while staying in aashram but now going back to Delhi, all guards started following them again...

Naina sighed, "phir se yeh guards ki fauj hamare pichhe chalegi... kitna maja aa raha tha na aashram mein freely ghumane mein... ab phir se vahi pinjare mein bandh panchhi jaisi feeling aayegi..." she said giving a pity look to Preeti smiling faintly but cannot do anything as security is important for Sameer being on this position... even after knowing the mastermind behind his accident she herself was worried about him and repeatedly requested Nanu to come back with them...

Preeti laughed seeing her asked, "vaise Nanu ke paas se vaapas jaane ka man nahin kar raha na... kaash kuchh din aur ruk paate unke paas... vaise bhi uss ghar mein jaakar toh phir se uss fashion ki putli aur Rani Sahiba ki shakal jhelni padegi..." her face turned into hatred realizing how much hard time Naina had bear due to both of evil creatures...

Naina, "Nanu ke paas ruk toh sakte the par sach kahun Sameerji ke bina kahin bhi rukne ka man nahin karta... maana Nanu ne mujhe bohot pyaar kiya, mujhe iss ghar ki bahu ka sirf darza hi nahin diya balki har voh maan sammaan diya jiske mujhe kabhi ummid hi nahin thi... lekin sahi maayne mein inn sab ki wajah sirf aur sirf Sameer hai... mujhe pata hai uss ghar mein bohot takleef sahi hai maine lekin ussi ghar mein mujhe mera pehla pyaar mila hai, mere har sapne ke poore hone ki shuruaat vahin se huyi hai... aur ab chaahe sukh mile ya dukh, jahaan mera pyaar vahin mera pariwaar, mera ghar..."

Reaching back to their car they settled inside seeing Sameer and Pandit again turned quiet... passing a forced sarcastic smile Preeti said making irritated faces, "haan haan pata hai hamare saamne baat nahin karoge aap log... kitne secretive ho na aap log..."

Naina looked at Sameer making a cute pout pleading him to tell their secret when he again kept his finger on his lips shook his head... she turned her head annoyingly looking other side muttering, "ziddi... sadu..."

Pandit laughed getting a hard glare from Preeti, "yaar tum ladkiyaan thodi der shaq karna nahin chhod sakti kya hum par... jo hoga do din mein pata chal hi jayega na..."

Sameer pulling Naina softly in his embrace whispers in his husky tone, "just wait Mrs Impatient Maheshwari... I am sure you will love it..."

She smiles keeping her head on his shoulder, "I believe you..."

Rest of the journey went well talking and reminiscing their time spent in aashram with others...

It was already late evening when they reached home... all were tired and wanted to take rest after a long road journey, but Sameer insists all to have their dinner first and then go back to their rooms for rest... he knew Vishakha is at home and doesn't want to let her meet Naina now... he doesn't want her to get upset for any reason...

They asked servants to serve light dinner prepared for them as all of them were tired... after having dinner, Naina stood to go back to her room when saw few labors with guards were coming down from stairs... she asked surprisingly, "Sameer, yeh labor yahaan iss waqt... koi renovation ho rahi hai kya ghar mein... aapne bataya nahin mujhe..."

Sameer giving a hard glare to Pandit cursed him beneath, "saara surprise kharaab karwayega yeh"

Pandit came to his rescue, "Naina, you don't worry about this... actually back portion mein kuchh renovation tha, par ab ho gaya hai... you go and rest..." without thinking any other excuse he lied to divert her mind...

Naina asked suspiciously, "lekin yeh toh hamare floor se aa rahe the... aur back portion mein toh mandir hai... koi problem ho gayi hai kya... mein abhi Mandir dekh kar aayi..." she was not at home from last few days and suddenly got worried for her temple, her peace place...

Sameer hold her hand going out, said pointing at Pandit, "yeh paagal hai kuchh bhi bolta hai... actually voh ek room ke wall mein seepage thi isliye renovation karwayi hai... but you don't worry ab sab theek hai... mandir wale portion mein kuchh nahin hua... you go and rest, I will join you soon..." he assured her not to get worried anymore... he knows how much Naina is attached with her Kanhaji...

Naina nodded her head still not convinced on their excuses as their faces were reflecting some other story... she knew they both are masters in hiding the secrets so no point for asking anymore... she left with Preeti to their rooms to get freshen up and sleep early feeling extremely tired...

Sameer taking a relax sigh hit on Pandit's arm, "tujhe kaha tha na ki saara renovation hamare aane se pehle finish hona chahiye... abhi saara surprise kharaab ho jaata... pata hai na teri behen ka dimaag kitna tej chalta hai... Lady Karamchand"

Pandit nervously rubbing his neck replied, "Sorry yaar... I thought yeh log chale gaye honge ab tak yahaan se sab kaam khatam kar ke... but don't worry ab koi gadbad nahin hogi... mein khud sab personally check kar lunga... aur vaise bhi ek din hi aur chhupana hai inn donon jasoos ladkiyon se..." they both chuckled recalling how much eager they were to know the surprise...

Seeing Karthik coming back from office they remain seated with him discussing on office matters as in their absence he was alone handling everything... Karthik was also willing to join Nanu's birthday first time, but someone must stay back to handle office matters... knowing how much important it was for Naina to have this change after her suicide attempt, he himself cancelled his trip and let them go to meet Nanu...

Talking with Sameer updating on all office work, Karthik stood going back to his room... the moment he passed from the corridor heard some loud noises coming from end of the corridor... he rushed fast and opened the last door and shocked seeing the condition...

The moment he stepped ahead a broken phone crushed under his shoes... he bent picking up the phone asked angrily, "now what's this... aapka dimaag theek hai... yeh kya haal bana rakha hai kamre ka..." he asked in frustrated voice seeing the messy condition of room... all show pieces were lying shattered on floor...

Vishakha shouts back, "yeh sab tumhari wajah se ho raha hai... agar tumhein apni Maa ki izzat ki jara bhi parwaah hoti toh tum CEO ki post nahin chhodte aur na hi mera yeh haal hota... tumne meri saari ummidon par paani pher diya..." she was in a complete mess, throwing things here and there venting her anger...

Giving a mocking smile, he replied, "ummidon par nahin aapki saajishon par... aap jo bhi bura Sameer ke saatha karna chahti thi usme maine aapka saath nahin diya aur iske liye mujhe koi sharmindagi nahin ... aap pehle hi meri zindagi barbaad kar chuki ho lekin mein ab aur yeh sab bardasht nahin karunga... na mere saath aur na hi Sameer Naina ke saath... samjhi aap..." though he was never be interested to handle CEO position but knowing Vishakha's ulterior motive he himself withdrawn himself when Sameer came back from London... Karthik willingly handed Sameer his lawful position and legal rights...

Vishakha shouts back, "tum sabka dimaag uss middle class ladki ki sangati mein rah kar barbaad ho gaya hai... pehle itani mushkil se uss Amrita se tumhara pichha chhudwaya toh ab yeh Naina aa gayi... mere itane saalon ki mehanat aur koshisho par paani pher diya inn donon ne..." she said knowing because of Amrita only Karthik is not willing to marry Kamya, shattering her dream to remain the wealthiest lady in city...

Karthik warned her pointing his finger, "khabardaar jo Amrita aur Naina ka naam bhi liya toh... mein Amrita aur apna rishta nahin sambhal paaya lekin mein Sameer aur Naina ke liye koi bhi hadd paar kar sakta hoon... unhein alag karne ki sochna bhi mat varna mujhse bura koi nahin hoga..."

Vishakha seeing his anger changed her tone showing pitiful look, "jis Naina ki tum tarafdaari kar rahe ho aaj sirf uski wajah se tumhare Dadaji ne mujhe iss ghar se chale jaane ke liye kah diya... itne saalon se jo ghar mere ishaaron par chalta tha, jahaan ki Rani Sahiba hoon mein aaj mujhe hi iss ghar se nikala ja raha hai... ab bhi tum apni Maa ka saath chhod kar un parayon ka saath doge... mat bhulo tumhein tumhara haq dilwane ke liye maine kitni mehanat ki hai... aakhir yeh sab tumhare liye hi toh kiya tha maina... yeh ghar sirf tumhara hai jispar voh Sameer aur Naina kabja kare baithe hai..." she tried to emotionally blackmail him showing how others are treating her badly...

Karthik laughed slowly, "aapka ghar... mat bhilye yeh ghar kabhi bhi aapka aur mera nahin tha... agar Sameer ki Maa aur Vivek Maheshwari ki legal wife, Mrs Sneha Maheshwari, bina kisi shart ke Papa ko divorce dekar yahaan se nahin gayi hoti toh aaj bhi hum donon sadak par hote... voh toh shukra kijiye Dadaji ka jinhone Papa ke baad humein dhakke dekar ghar se baahar nahin nikala varna kanooni taur se aaj bhi iss ghar ka maalik sirf Sameer hai... sirf Dadaji ki health ki wajah se Sameer aapki saari badatmijiyaan sehta hai varna kaun beta apni Maa ke gunahgaar ke saath ek hi chhat ke neeche rehna pasand karega..."

Vishakha got stunned hearing him still taking their side, "iska matlab tum bhi chahte ho ki mein iss ghar se chali jaaun aur voh gareeb ghar ki ladki yahaan raaj kare... mujhe laga tum mera khoon ho aur mera saath doge lekin tum bhi paraye ho gaye..." she sobs shedding fake tears to make him emotional...

Karthik showing no sympathy on her replied rudely, "shayad yahi hum sabke liye theek hoga... achchha huaa jo khud Dadaji ne yeh baat kah di... aur vaise bhi agar Naina ne yeh ghar sambhala toh yeh ghar ek swarg ban jayega, na ki aapki tarah iss ghar ko social status ke liye banaya huaa show piece... aapne aaj tak apni un so-called high class friends ke saamne show off karne ke alawa kiya kya hai... aapko toh apne khud ke bete ka birthday tak yaad nahin rehta... na hi koi tyohar na koi reet riwaaz... kaash aap ek Rani Sahiba banane ke saath ek Maa ka farz nahin bhulati... kisi paraye ko toh kya hi pyaar dogi jab aap apne khud ke bete ke dil ko nahin samajh paayi..." he said pointing towards the incident when she make him separate from his love, Amrita...

Vishakha fumed in anger seeing him insulting her, "bas Karthik, mein sab samajh rahi hoon ki aaj kal Sameer ka support pa kar tumhare kadam bhi phir se dagmaga rahe hai... mat bhulo agar mein ek baar uss middle class ladki ko tumse dur kar sakti hoon toh..."

He cuts her in between shouting back, "kharabdaar jo ek baar aur aapne meri Amrita ki taraf aankh utha kar dekha bhi toh... mein bhool jaaunga ki hamare beech koi rishta bhi hai... ek baar aap hamare rishtey ki bali chada chuki ho lekin ab aur nahin... ab mein aapke haath ki kathputli nahin banunga..."

Taking a deep breathe, he composed himself to handle situation calmly, "dekhiye, aapke liye yahi sahi rahega ki aap yahaan se chali jaao, hum sabki zindagi se dur... mein nahin bardasht kar paaunga agar ab aapki wajah se mere kisi bhi apne ko dukh hua toh... Sameer ke bade bhai hone ka farz maine kabhi nahin nibhaya lekin mein ab chup nahin rahunga... agar aap meri Maa hai toh mein bhi aapka hi beta hoon... aapki saari kartoote, aapke saare galat kaam, aapki kitty party ki aad mein chhupe illegal gambling business ke baare mein sab pata hai mujhe... mujhe majboor mat kijiye varna kahin aapki baaki ki zindagi jail mein na gujare..." his face turned colder and meaner than ever, full of hostility...

Giving him last warning to stay away from all he strode out from her room without giving glance to her... he knew whatever he will say Vishakha will not change... the only solution is to keep her away from this house, and his loved ones...

Vishakha stared the retreating figure going away from her sight with blood shot eyes in disbelief... she couldn't believe that Karthik would reveal and threaten her with all her bad deeds to keep her under control... this was the most humiliating day for her... she had never expected Nanu to become extremely rude with her and strictly ordered to stay away from Maheshwari Mansion... even Karthik would suddenly revolt against her, denied to support and warned to reveal all her misdeeds in front of entire world... her reputation and good image that she had built in everyone's minds would be ruined... she would be doomed...
