Story is right after Ragini's expose. The difference, she is at MM.

Laksh was sleeping in his bed after Ragini's true was out he wanted to kill her, but he didn't

Ragini was lying on the same bed next to him. She was looking at him, but he was showing her his cold shoulder not giving any heed to her.

Laksh wasn't really sleeping, he was awake and crying silently in the night.

Ragini knew she did wrong, but she never intend to hurt him this way. If Swara had loved him honestly wouldn't she had agreed to marry Laksh by herself? No, she married Sanskaar, true love never dies, but her (Swara) love died by taking her revenge on Ragini.

If she was moving on, then why she had to prove everyone, that she is the real culprit? Well someday the true had to come out. Maybe it was the best, but still Laksh couldn't forget Swara neither could he forgive Ragini.

On the next morning Ragini woke up first.

She took a shower and wore a beautiful dress in yellow.

Laksh woke up after her, he didn't gave her a gaze and went to washroom, immediately he closed the door behind him.

Ragini didn't mind it. She knew she did wrong, but her love is genuine someday she will make him too fall for her.

Laksh was crying under the shower. Ragini what I did to you that you played that game with me? I consider you as my friend my best friend and you took my love from me, why?Ragini I'm sorry for breaking your heart and for using you for my deeds, but I never took away your lo... He stopped before ending this sentence. Actually that is what I did. I took away your love from you. Me... I broke the engagement and your heart too. I took the decision to marry you in my rage of anger. You could have planned it, but still it was my decision I call for our marriage no one forced you or me....

Laksh came out and wore some fresh clothes. He comes down with his dashing look.

All the family members were angry on Ragini they didn't wanted to talk to her or let her in the kitchen.

AP scold her in front of everyone, "After what you did to your own sister how can we trust you?"

Sujata as always poking her nose in everything, "Who knows, maybe she will poison the food."

Ragini was listening to them totally numb.

AP shook her head, "I can't believe it that once I asked for you to become my daughter-in-law."

Ragini closed her eyes, tears, which she held back, were now rolling down her cheeks.

Laksh comes there slowly, he went to his mother.

AP looks at him, "you suffered a lot Laksh and I couldn't do anything." She caresses his cheek, "But now I will do something I never expected this from you Ragini. Leave our house you are not welcomed here." She shouts at Ragini, who was frozen.

Laksh saw that, "maa please don't say this."

All looked at him in shock.

DP stood up from his place, "Laksh! You mother is right, she has no right to stay here."

Laksh lifts his head, "Papa you are wrong after all she is my wife, she has a right to stay here." Laksh turns to Ragini, who was shocked hearing Laksh words.

Laksh went close to her, "You have hurt me not my family. You played with my emotions, but not that of my family. You respected them always, you tried your best. You will only be punished by me and throwing you out of the house would be the harmless punishment you would get. I will keep you here so you won't spoil someone else life. You have to live with my hate." The word hate he said in such a low voice that it sounds unreal.

The whole family wasn't happy about it.

Laksh was sitting on the dining table. Ragini unsure what to do, moves to the table, comes to sit next to him.

Laksh stops her, "From now on you will do all the work as a daughter-in-law of this house it's your duty to serve."

Ragini went to the kitchen and prepared the breakfast.

AP looks at him, "I won't eat the food made by her." She huffs in anger.

Laksh couldn't understand her hate, "Maa you are used to eat her food why would she harm you or anyone of the family, when she had the opportunity many times before?"

Ragini did all the work like before. Laksh wasn't treating her bad, but he was making her loved again by the family members, which was very difficult.

One day Swara made the food as Ragini was feeling ill. No one bother for her she was coughing the whole time. She was having high fever.

The men came home after a very long day in office all were very hungry they started to eat without getting a freshen up.

They were all busy that no one notice Ragini's absence. But all notice the different taste in food.

Laksh made a face, "It doesn't taste like usually." He felt to vomit.

Swara smiles, "because I made it."

Sanskaar saw the faces of the others, before anyone would say something he did, "It is very tasty..." They all nodded in fake.

Laksh stood up, without finishing the food.

Swara saw that, "Laksh I have made Rasgulle your favourite?"

Laksh hold his stomach, "it's ok I'm not that hungry." He left from there.

Back in his room, he saw Ragini coughing and breathing heavily. She was sweating because of the high fever she had.

He took a bowl and filled it with water, he took a cloth and dipped it in.

He drains the unnecessary water and placed the cloth on Ragini's forehead. He did it the whole night without taking a sleep.

Ragini who was weak saw his concern it made her suspicions. What is he up to?.

Laksh saw her blinking eyes, "How you feel now?" He asked her.

Ragini blinks with her eyes a few times, "Better Thank you."

Laksh nods with a cute smile, "it's okay."

Laksh stretches his arms once he was tired.

Ragini slowly stood up.

Laksh was looking at her, "Where are you going?"

Ragini lowers her head, "washroom...?"

Laksh nodded, "you need help?"

She shook her head, she stood up but cause of weakness she slips. But Laksh caught her on time. He helps her to walk to the washroom and waits for her outside the door.

Ragini comes out in a towel. Laksh was shocked/mesmerized seeing her in just a towel with her long wet hairs.

Laksh turns, she took some clothes and changed.

Laksh yawns loudly.

Ragini heard it. Did he really stayed awake for me? But why he hates me, right? Why is he caring for me?

Laksh was taking a cold shower to stay awake. Both come down together.

Ragini's thoughts were still going on. He never treat me bad. He never scold me. No, he is the only one, who is nice to me. Why didn't I saw that earlier, but he isn't taking revenge from me he is.... She turns to him a smiled formed on her lips.

Laksh again stretches his arms and leans to the chair back.

Sanskaar saw that, "Laksh you look tired, all fine?"

Laksh nods, "nothing bhai. All is fine."

Adarsh gulps his food down, "good you have to do the presentation today."

Laksh nodded, "I know." Ragini made coffee for Laksh. She prepared the food too. All were eating, but Laksh couldn't keep his eyes open.

After the truth of her, Ragini never spoken up to anyone. Afterall they hated her, but now she needs to know otherwise she won't be able to help Laksh. Ragini took a deep breath, "When is the presentation?" She asked openly. All were quiet, but Adarsh answered, "Ragini the presentation is at 2 p.m."

Ragini nodded, she checked the time it was 8 a.m. He has 6 hours hmm 4 to 5 hours of sleep

Sanskaar was curious to know, "Why you wanted to know?"

Ragini couldn't find an excuse, "woh... I was..." *Hatsshiii* she sneezes 🤧

"Sanskaar I'm still not well, if he could stay a while to look after me? He will be at office on right time. I Promise..."

Laksh understood what she was trying. AP gave her a death gaze, "Laksh won't stay back here just because of your sneeze."

Laksh head was paining, "Maa please his head was aching."

Sanskaar looked at Adarsh, who nodded, "well if you want to stay, you will come on time, Pakka? sure?"

Laksh nodded.

Adarsh finished the food, "ok. We will send a driver to pick you up later."

Both agreed because they saw the sleepy face of Laksh.

After having breakfast RagLak went up to their bedroom. Ragini was preparing his suitcase with all the documents and files. Laksh was sleeping peacefully. Ragini took off his shoes. He slept with shoes again... She puts an alarm for him. He woke up on time and went to the office to give the presentation, which become a big success.

AP was impatiently waiting for their arrival. She had started to taunt Ragini, "if Laksh become sick and couldn't held the presentation."

But Ragini didn't care. She knows Laksh would give his best, her heart said it.

Laksh comes in with his brothers, father and uncle.

SwaRi ran to them, "How was your presentation?"

All the men were searching for Ragini.

Laksh shouts loud, "Ragini!"

She was in the kitchen, when he calls her name.

"Ragini!" He shouts again and this time she comes out of the kitchen.

All looked at her. Laksh runs to her and gave her bone crush hug, "Thank you."

DP comes there and blessed her. Ragini was looking at him with teary eyes.

Laksh smiles, "if you didn't hold me back I would have messed up or would be sleeping at the presentation, but because of you I could sleep and took proper rest, the best we got the deal." Ragini widen her eyes in happiness.

DP smiles Laksh had told them everything after the presentation was a success. "Ragini today you have saved our business facing a big loss and embarrassment."

Adarsh too went to her, "we got to know you were sick last night and he took care of you."

Sanskaar also ignored the others, "that was the real reason why he was tired today morning."

Laksh smiles, "but now I'm really hungry. The food of last night was horrible and today morning I was just to tired. Ragini please serve me some good food." Ragini nods wiping the tears away.

All were eating and all women were shocked to know the true of Laksh success. It made Swara jealous.

Slowly slowly Ragini had made her place back in everyone's heart. She never expected it, but with Laksh help, she was again loved by almost everyone. Except by one, Herself, she hates herself being that stone hearted. Today if she wouldn't have been this jealouse Laksh and Swara were awaiting their first child, but it is Swara and Sanskaar awaiting a child.

Laksh comes home after a long office day.
He saw her lost in her thoughts.
Both hasn't moved on in their relationship. Ragini thinks that Laksh consider her as his responsibility not as a friend or wife. But poor girl Laksh had accepted her fully by her true nature she is back as the old Ragini he had loved once as a friend and accepted as his wife.

Ragini shocked, when she felt a cold hand on her bare back. Laksh was standing behind her. "What happen Ragini?" Ragini gave him a smile and shook her head, "Nothing."

Laksh gave her an intense look, "What are you hiding?"

Ragini wasn't sure how to talk about this matter, she doesn't want to open old wounds. A scream was to hear.

Laksh widen his eyes, "oh ho I think Swara is in Labour pain."

Ragini stood up, "haan she needs our help."

Sanskaar was there and all went to the hospital.

Adarsh looked for his little brother, "Laksh a minute, please?"

Laksh nodded, "Ragini you don't worry everything will be fine." He went from there,
Laksh was standing next to Adarsh, "Haan bhai."

Adarsh smiles, "Laksh, Pari she is...?" He was trying to find the right words.

Laksh was scared, "bhai What happen to Pari bhabhi?"

Adarsh shook his head, "she is pregnant."

Laksh widen his eyes, he immediately hugs him.

Adarsh was happy about the response, "don't you want to move on?"

Laksh pouts, "I want but...?" he looks at Ragini, "She is still living in past. I have to make her understand."

Adarsh understood, "yes, I can see it maybe it is better if you go abroad with her on a honeymoon?" Laksh nods, "this is a great idea bhai."

Soon all returned home with the new member Shona it's a girl. Ragini was very happy, she become an aunt, but Swara was still showing her the cold shoulder. Laksh saw that, but he had no right to say something on Swara's behaviour. He took the new baby and walked to Ragini.

"Ragini come your niece is waiting to meet you." She scares, but Laksh goes to her. 😁. "Hmm what are you now? Maasi/Khala or Chaachi?"

Ragini smiles, "Laksh what are you saying?"

Laksh laughs, "Ragini you are Swara sister or my wife?"

Ragini blushed, "hmm. Can't I be both?"

Swara shouts, "No!"

Laksh gave her death glare.

Swara frighten, she moved a step back.

Laksh looked at the baby, "Ok it's final you are her Chaachi only."

Ragini noddwd and Swara fumed, she was the one who had moved on first, but she can't see Ragini accepted by everyone.

Adarsh had informed the family about their happy news and about RagLak honeymoon idea.

AP smiles, "Haan this is a very good idea. After what had happen we never gave them the chance to move on."

Swara interrupted, "Maybe Laksh doesn't want to. Afterall Ragini betrayed him."
Laksh heard her, but he didn't say anything.

Ragini was up in their bedroom, she wasn't sure about the honeymoon idea, but Laksh made her comfortable.

Ragini was looking around, "Laksh what will we do there? Where are we going? Is everyone happy? Can we just leave I mean your work?"

So many questions, Laksh got annoyed, "baas {enough} Ragini! Breath!"

Ragini burst out in a loud laugh. Laksh too laughs. He plugs the loose hair strands, which were hiding her face, behind her ear. Ragini shyly looked down.

Laksh hugs her, "We are going for a honeymoon with the permission from everyone. The destination is a surprise. I have completed all my work and what a question you asked, what we will do in our honeymoon. Do I really have to explain?" Ragini becomes red.

Swara was jealous, she gave the family a heir and all are busy with RagLak. RagLak here RagLak there.

Ragini and Laksh were about to leave, when Swara plays a game.

"Ragini please don't go."

Laksh was surprised like Ragini, "Swara what happen?"

"Ragini I just need help with Shona."

Sujata shook her head, "array Chori we are all here. There is no need for them to stay. You two go. Have fun." Ragini was looking at Swara, but Laksh dragged her out.

Ragini pouts, "Laksh, Swara needs me.."

Laksh gave her a look, "all of sudden? She was avoiding you for a couple of months we are leaving and she needs to you. Oh no! By the way don't you want to spend some of your precious time with me?"

Ragini smiles. She wasn't sure about his words, but she could see love through his eyes.

Soon they arrived their destination. Switzerland...😉.

Ragini was damn happy, "Laksh it's snowing!"

Laksh looked at her, "you tell me do you like the view?"

Ragini nod excitingly, but then her face changed.

Laksh saw it, "kiya huwa {what happen}?"

Ragini lowers her head, "My clothes... 😔 they are not suitable for this place."

Laksh laughs, "That is your problem. Don't worry I have exchanged the bags you have packed are still at home." Ragini looks at him with big eyes.

Laksh smiles, "you want to go for ski?"

Ragini shook her head, "I can't."

Laksh smiles even more, "I will teach you." Ragini nodded.

Ragini wore the above outfit.
Laksh wore the underneath outfit

Laksh looked at her, "let's go." Ragini smiles bright. Laksh took her carefully with him to the nearby ski slope. First they enter the suspension railway/lift.

Ragini was looking excitingly, but had a bit fear. She hold Laksh hand with little pressure. Laksh likes it. He was lost in her reflection, which he could see through the window.

Soon they arrived the highest point. Ragini was happy like a kid, it was her first visit that too in Europe on a ski resort.

Laksh took her by his hand both were skiing on a small and easy slope.

Ragini tried it alone and fall on her bottom.

Laksh comes to her help. Ragini tried again... and again.... and again.... Laksh helps her all the time, she falls he picks her up.

Then Laksh shows her, how to do it. Ragini was happy about Laksh talent.

"Laksh you are awesome."

"Thank you. Now try again."

She refused.

"Why?"

Ragini lowers her head, "It really feels as if my panty is wet."

He burst out in a laugh and Ragini too.

They didn't know how the time just moved. "Laksh look."

Laksh was looking at her.

Ragini was looking at the view, "How beautful is that 😍"

Laksh was lost, "hmm." He was just staring her.

Ragini was shaking because of the coldness. Laksh who was watching here saw her shaking lips. Laksh comes near, he wanted to kiss those pinky fluffy lips, but stopped.

Ragini chattering teeth, "Laa...aaa..ksh."

*hatshi🤧*

Laksh 'jumped' back. "Ragini let's go to our resort."

She nodded and again they took the lift and drove back. Seeing the view.

Ragini 😄😄😄. She again was holding his hand. Soon they were back in their hotel.

"Laksh in night it looks so beautiful."

Laksh agrees, "haan you know dil hi nahi karta ke kahin bahair chalen {my heart says to stay at home}."

Ragini nodded, soon they entered their room.
Ragini changes as soon as they arrived.

Laksh was excited but what he saw made him really confused. She won't move on...

He was sitting in front of the chimney he was just in his boxers. Ragini blushes seeing him so bold.

Ragini comes with a quilt. She put it over his shoulders and over her shoulders.

She to was taking the heat of the chimney. But Laksh intense gaze was stick on her.

Ragini felt it with the corner of her eye she saw him. She hide her face behind her hands and turns to show him her back.

Laksh pouts, "Ragini I thought you love me. Don't you?"

Ragini turns, "Laksh I love you. Why else I had done all this; but I know you don't love me you never can love me."

Laksh looks down, "Ragini maybe you were right, but time changed and your love changed me."

Ragini was confused. Laksh slowly pulls her toward him. He cups her face, "Ragini I first did the mistake by playing with your feelings. You took tour revenge by hurting your own sister to get me. I don't know what love or madness it is but it's there." He pointed on his chest, "Ragini I... didn't throw you out because it wasn't your fault alone I too was responsible for it. But I wanted to move on. Like Sanskaar and Swara moved on. Ragini would you...?"
Ragini kisses his lips on her own.

Laksh enjoyed it, but her pyjama was kind love killing obstacle.

Laksh made her lie underneath him. Ragini was laughing seeing his questioning and confused face. Ragini show him the zip of her 1 piece. Laksh unzip her by kissing her bare body....

On the next morning

RagLak were covered under a warm quilt still moaning and gasping the name of each other.

After 2 weeks of honeymoon they returned to MM. Everyone was happy as the honeymoon trip was a success to Ragini out of her grind.

Ragini become more open, she shared all her problems with Laksh. She was talking to him openly about everything.

One Day Laksh come late home. Ragini had waited for his return, but she fall asleep on the dining table. Laksh lifted her up an envelope falls from her hands. Laksh thought about it, but his wife was more important to him. He carried her to the bedroom and made her lay on the bed carefully.

Laksh walks down, he took the envelope and opens it. A Letter written by Ragini...

Dear Laksh

"Today is the most beautiful day in our life."

Laksh thought, did I forget our wedding anniversary????

"Today I'm giving you the news of your life. Can you guess what?"

Laksh shook his head, If I could I wouldn't read. Ragini you are too much.

"Look inside the envelope."

Laksh opens it with care to see a sonogram.

"Laksh meet your new life which is growing inside me."

Laksh lost his balance he fall back on the table and sat on the edge of it.

"Laksh you are becoming a father. It is the prove of our Love.... No YOUR LOVE. THAT BABY IS MADE BY YOUR LOVE. I had given up, but you never stopped, somewhere deep in the cornor of your heart there was a place just for me, but it was very small and well hidden, but you let it grow. You let it develop. You made me yours. Thank you Laksh, you gave me the happiness of my life I was searching for."

Laksh was crying happy tears knowing that he is becoming a father.

"Laksh I wrote this letter in case I fall asleep. Bad haan."

"Still, I, Ragini Lakshya Maheshwari loves you and not only me, but our baby too 💋."

Laksh took the envelope and rushed up to his bedroom. Where his beautiful wife was in a deep sleep.

Laksh closed the door, he comes near to see her belly.

Laksh places his hand on the belly, "Hi meri Jaan {my life}. Sorry Papa is bit late, but in future he will be here on time. Can you cover me? I mean in future when you are here in this world I need a partner in crime and pranks ans sometimes I need an excuse not to attend old and boring functions. You will do that for me?" He kisses her belly and fall asleep...

A few years later
Laksh and Ragini become parents....

Laksh was looking at his clothes, "Ragini do I really have to wear this?"

Ragini irritated, "Laksh just wear it."

".... Papa papa." Laksh turns, "haan meri jaan, what happen?

Jaan looked at him, "Should I wear this?"

"or this?"

Laksh was confused, "both will look gorgeous on you."

".... .... Papa papa."

Laksh turns, "Haan my princess."

Princess show on one of the dresses, "The red dress is mine."

Laksh put on a stern look, "Jaan give her her dress back."

Jaan shook her head, "No."

Laksh placed his hand on his hips, "ok then give her the white one, which looks much better."

Jaan shook her head, "no. Here."

".... ... maa maaa!!!" Ragini turns, "Haan Champ what happen."

Champ pouts, "Do I really have to come?"

Ragini made big eyes, "you and your papa are too much."

Champ smirks, "Handsome😎😉"

Ragini opens her mouth, "Badmaash {mischief}."

They had to attend the boring birthday party of Shona. Swara still tries to make it big, but there is nothing in comparison in a birthday party of triples which Ragini has to organise year for year..
