Hi everyone, Be safe and happy reading!!

There was a complete silence in the car, Haseena was at back seat while Anubhav was driving and Karishma was sitting beside him. "Anu, I think we should immediately went to papa's Haveli. Everyone must be waiting for us there," Haseena asked from the back seat however much to her confusion Anubhav did not budge and continued his journey towards the city instead of moving out of the city. With creased forehead, she turned her gaze towards Karishma and added, "Karishma, it seems your Anu bhayya had suddenly became deaf, do you know why we are going in the city when in fact we must have been moving to the opposite side," However much to her shock even Karishma had not responded anything. Regardless of her numerous calls, they both, had neither responded her once nor even glanced towards her. "Am I forgetting something? Why they are giving me silent treatment?" she thought getting extremely restless of their behaviour.

Before, she could reach to any conclusion, he applied breakes outside City hospital. "City hospital!! But why? Anu, Karishma....." she asked baffled but once again failed to get anything. Instead without looking in her eyes, Karishma had held her wrist and dragged her out of the car while Anubhav came from other side. With anger and hurt visible on their faces, the brother-sister duo had supported her inside the hospital completely ignoring her questions. Upon reaching doctor's cabin, they had carefully made her sit on the bed and moved towards doctor to talk to her. "Doctor, you might know that already that in last 6 months Haseena had been through immense physical and mental torture starting from her kidnapping to the scorpion's case this morning. With one kidney and everything, i.....i am extremely worried about her health...." His voice literally choked out of fear of losing her once again and at that very moment Haseena realized why she is getting silent treatment. "Please, doctor, you.....you examine her completely and let us know....how....how can we rehabilitate her body.....please doctor it's a request....we.....we can't lose her..." Karishma requested with wet eyes and ended up with tears streaming down from her eyes seeing which Anubhav gave her a side hug, attempting to give her strength. Listening to them and seeing their distraught condition, Haseena drowned in pool of guilt. Finding herself at loss of words, her own eyes get wet and she could no longer find enough courage to raise her eyes.

"Don't worry, relax!! You please wait outside and let me examine her completely. I have to do a few tests too and it would take some time." Doctor told them. "No problem, we are waiting outside" Anubhav responded and they both moved out of her cabin. Outside doctor's cabin, "Anu bhayya!! Don't you think we are giving her unnecessary pain? I mean she had already drowned in so much guilt." Karishma asked him. "Unnecessary pain, really Behna? Is there no other way to hide her identity except getting belted brutally, Can't she distract you by any other way instead of worsening her already fresh wounds, Was putting herself infront of that truck, the only way to get rid of that truck........" he added with red eyes and tears started streaming down from both the pair of eyes. "No, Behna......no.....an agent never go on a mission with just one plan.....i am sure she must have Plan B and C too......but....she chose to put her own life in danger......Why? Why she had not thought even once about me, about you before taking the step.....?" Anubhav said giving words to mutual pain of his sister and himself.

After three to four hours, Doctor had finally called them in. They entered the cabin and directly moved to doctor without looking at Haseena who was looking at them with expectant yet guilty eyes but upon not getting any responde again, she once again bowed her head. "Mr Anubhav and Mrs Karishma Singh, though Haseena's body had weakened but nothing is serious. We can easily rehabilitate her but for that you to take her proper car. I am prescribing some multivits and iron capsules. Giving her some thing to eat every three hours and along with that a good night's sleep is ver necessary." Doctor advised handing him a prescription and added, "And about her burnt feet souls.....apply this ointment regulary twice a day." "Thank you doctor!! Thanks a lot." Anubhav added with gratitude and once again they both supported her out of the hospital by holding her through her arms from both side however this time, she was silently obliging them.

Without looking in her eyes or talking anything to her, Karishma had settled her in the bed in her house in Lukhnow and moved out of the room while Haseena's tear dropped down from her face to her lap. Outside Anubhav had called Mahipal, "Uncle, we are not coming today as Haseena need's rest but don't worry tomorrow I will bring you daughter to you and also keep everyone there only until our arrival, don't let anyone come to Lukhnow." "Okay, Anubhav beta and don't worry about everyone....they are absolutely safe." Mahipal responded. "Uncle how is Maa??" he asked. "Beta, she was very much disturbed when he heard about Veer's deeds but now she is better." He responded politely. "Okay uncle see you tomorrow." He greeted him and hung up only to see Karishma looking at him, "Maa is getting better, don't worry she will be alright completely with time. Haseena?" he asked. "I had just settled her in her room.....but..." She hesiatated. "But what?" he enquired. "Bhayya! I am also equally upset with her but....i...I can't see her tears also...." "Behna! Her tears are hurting me also but I need assurance that next time she won't be this casual with herself. Don't you want that?" "I do.....don't worry I am with you." Karishma assured him and they both moved towards Kitchen to cook something.

They were setting trays when door bell rang, "Who could come here? Let me check...." Anubhav thought loudly and moved towards the door. Couple of minutes later, he returned with two beautiful multicolored bouques with two envelopes, one on each of their name. "What is it? Who had sent it?" Shrugging his shoulder, he handed her bouquet and envelope which came on her name. As soon as they read its contents, their confusion changed into a sweet smile.

My beloved Anu/Karishma,

Your anger is absolutely justified. If I would have been at your place, I would have done the same with you or perhaps worse. I know this anger has been born out of the unconditional love you both hold for me but your silent treatment is killing me from inside bit by bit...... Please I beg you to give me one chance, please, please, please just one chance to explain myself.......after that I will silently accept your every punishment.......

Love

Haseena

As they both finished reading their eyes were wet, looking at each other they both decided to talk to her. Taking the tray of food for the three of them, Anubhav entered the room followed by Karishma only to see her sitting in half lying position with her eyes closed and head placed on backrest of the bed while tears were flowing continuously from her eyes. Their heart twitched seeing her condition, Karishma gazed at Anubhav accusingly who called her, "Haseena!" His voice had startled her and she at once sat up straight and wiped away her face from both hands, "Anu, Karishma??" escaped her lips. Glancing at them for a brief minute, her eyes once again welled up and she bowed her head. Seeing her condition both Anubhav and Karishma reflexively stepped towards her to calm her down but once again Haseena's crushed jeep and she stuck inside it, flashed in his mind, halting his steps. Next moment, he stopped Karishma holding her wrist and shook his head sideways with stern expression though Karishma gave him pleading look but he shrugged away her plead and said addressing Haseena with utterly serious expressions and anger filled in his voice, "You had called us, that means you want to say something......come on say it we are listening."

Looking down, fidgeting fingers, tears falling down in her lap, she added with cracked voice, "You are right....i....i....had...Plan B and Plan C.......I agree that I had not thought even once before putting my life in risk......but...it was not because I had not thought about you......instead it was because, I was so scared......suddenly so many responsibility of protecting so many lives came on my sole soulders......Yours, your mother, my mother, Pushpa ji, Shorya Bhai, Cheetah, Santosh and millions of innocent people of Lukhnow.....you cannot even imagine how much frightened I was to lose you all.....my slightest mistake could ruin my whole world......not only this....every thing happened so suddenly......that initially........at the time of chosing the plan.....i.....i forget about myself.....i forgot that my life is not just mine.....but you both had full right on me......and when I realized that how much painful it would be for you both.....it...it was too late....i....i....i am not justifying my actions.....but.....i...I just.....just want to apologize to you....." Still with lowered gazes, she held her ears from both hands and said, "I am sorry.....I am sorry that in saving everyone else I ....i forgot to take care of your Haseena.....I am sorry.....i promise.....i will never repeat this mistake.....i promise that from now what ever the situation is......no matter how difficult the case would be......I will not put your Haseena's life at risk until it would be the last option.......please.....please don't punish me with your silence.....please forgive me...." with that she started crying hysterically still holding her ears.

In next moment Anubhav and Karishma had taken her in their mutual hug, removing her hands from her ears. Upon getting their warmth and love once again, she cried more hysterically. "Sshhh!!! Please Haseena ji....relax....calm down..." Anubhav said rubbing her back. "It's okay Haseena.....please....please stop crying.....you know I can't see you crying....please Haseena...." Karishma tried her best but Haseena wasn't calming down. "Haseena ji.....please....i am sorry....i shouldn't have been this hard.....you....you were already drowned in guilt seeing our pain and ....i....i...had been foolishly increased it.....Please stop crying....love..." Anubhav said still hugging her getting extremely restless at her condition. Karishma removed her forcefully from hug and said looking at both of them, "Please bhayya, Haseena.....until when we are going to cry over past....let's just forget it.....we need to leave the past behind and look forward to future.....our bright future where we will be together always....Please Haseena...." Hearing their words, Haseena had finally managed to relax herself and stopped crying. Karishma and Anubhav both wiped her tears through her one eye. "Come on, let's have dinner together....." Anubhav added getting up to take the tray.

Next day, the triopack were driving towards Mahipal's village, Anubhav driving, Haseena sitting beside him and Karishma at the back. Haseena's phone rang, "Yes, officer Manisha." "Mam, your friend Shalini had been sent to her home safely but what about Hashim's mother," she asked her. "For now sent her to oldage home, I will think something for her later. And I won't come to office for next few days but keep me updated," Haseena responded calmly yet professionally. "Sure mam," Manisha responded and hung up.

Both Anubhav and Karishma had observed a sudden restlessness in Haseena, as she was looking out of the window drowned in her own thoughts. "Haseena, what happened?" Karishma asked putting her hand on her shoulder. Haseena looked at her with wet eyes, "I don't want to meet anyone......" Anubhav applied a sudden break hearing her words and looked at her shockingly. "Haseena!!! What does that mean...." Karishma asked equally shocked. "you were not there...I was.....and I had seen doubt in everyone's eyes for me.....and Ammi.....she....she had snatched my Abbu's name from me......I am tired now, I am not angry on them but I don't want to go back to them to let them hurt me again..." Haseena responded turning her face away. "Haseena!" Karishma gasped and looked at his brother worriedly seeing her still upset.

"Haseena, I can understand your feelings even me and Anu bhayya were equally upset with them when we get to know about it. But the truth is what you saw in your team's eyes was the desperation to shut questioning mouths more than doubt or lack of trust. Cheetah, Santosh, Puhspa ji, Shorya ji, Maa.....i had seen their remorse from my own eyes. Moreover, imagine their extent of pain at the thought that somewhere their doubt was the reason of your suicide. They are in terrible condition Haseena trust me. As much as we have yearned for you they have also......Please forget everything and move ahead with open heart.....it will be peaceful for you and for them too." Karishma tried making her understand by holding her both hands in her. Haseena nodded slightly in response and they resumed their journey towards Mahipal's Haveli.

As they entered the village it was evening time, sun was setting giving a beautiful view from the side mirror. At the road towards Haveli, guards were standing with their gun, eyes down as always bowed in respect of choti Sarkar. Anubhav applied breaks in front of main entrance of the Haveli, Guards standing there opened doors of the car for them and the three of them stepped down from the jeep. As soon as she stepped down the car, Mansi came running towards her, hugged her tightly and started crying hysterically, "Haseena di!! Where have you been? I....i....was....i felt....so alone....." she was mumbling and tightening her grip on Haseena who was trying to comfort her by rubbing her back with her own wet eyes, "Shh!! It's okay....i am absolutely fine baby.....i am sorry I was compelled to do that....i am sorry...please calm down." Her soft voice calmed her down and she cam out of her hug. Wiping away her tears, she held Haseena's hand and dragged her inside the haveli where Mahipal and Ammi was standing in front of all.

"Haseena!! My daughter!!!" with red swollen eyes and smiling face Ammi said stepping towards Haseena to hug her to her heart's solace. Much to her dismay, Haseena ignored her completely instead moved towards Mahipal and hugged him. All other's present there, get shocked as none ad expected Haseena to do this. Karishma moved ahead and hugged Ammi and whispered in her ear, "Aunty! Please hold yourself.....Haseena is a bit angry....but don't worry give her some time she will be alright." Coming out of her her hug, Ammi patted her both hands taking them in hers and nodded with a disheartened smile. After that Anubhav greeted her and the brother sister duo moved towards Sandhya who at once took them in her embrace and the three of them started sobbing in no time. Other side, Mahipal added holding Haseena in his hug, "Haseena beta!! Before taking such a big step at least you could have informed me.....you can't imagine how much me and your mother had gone through hearing about your death." "Sorry Papa.....i do not want to give you pain but i ....i had no other option....i can't reveal the truth." Haseena apologized to him holding her ears which was instantly freed by Mahipal and he placed his hand on her head nodding smilingly.

"Sorry di, I am so sorry...." Santosh and Cheetah did not waited more and at once apologized to her with their red and wet eyes, holding their ears. Shaking her head in negative, Haseena removed their hands from their ears. Next moment Santosh hugged her and reduced into tears. It took a couple of minutes for her to calm down Santosh after that she gave cheetah a side hug. Next she found Pushpa Ji and Shorya standing infront of her with joined hands, "Please Puahpa ji, Bhai!! Please don't do this...." She said at once putting their hands down. Shorya put her hand on her head and gave his sister a side hug while Pushpa ji hugged Haseena tightly. Karishma and Anubhav then moved towards Shorya and Pushpa ji to meet them while Haseena moved towards Sandhya who was looking at her with blank eyes.

Haseena had taken her silence wrongly and said with joined hands, "I am sorry Aunty....I know he was your husband and father to your children but.....but he was a terrorist....i....i had to make him meet his end." Sandhya stepped towards her slowly and just hugged her tightly, "thank you Haseena!!! Thank you so much....if you would not have been there, today I would have lost my son and daughter....I am ashamed of what Veer did." "No, Aunty...please you were nowhere at fault and you don't have to feel guilty for his deeds." Haseena added tightening her hold around a disturbed Sandhya who came out of hug, kissed her forehead and added with placing her hand on her head with utmost love and care, "I thank God every day for sending you in my son and daughter's life."

Haseena was sitting on swing in the balcony attached to her room, looking at shining stars in the sky with tears streaming down from her eyes while her mind was stuck at the moment outside Police Station where her beloved Ammi had slapped her and restrained her from using her Abu's name. It was then her mother also entered the balcony with a bowl of 'gajar ka halwa' in her hand, "Look Haseena, what I brought for you....i had especially cooked that for your." Haseena glanced at her for a brief second and then went inside without responding anything. She also moved behind her daughter and before she could leave the room, her mother had held her wrist tightly, "Ammi, please!! Let me go....i do not wish to eat anything." she said trying to free her wirst from her grip without facing her. "I know you are angry on me bacha and you have full right for that but even I have full right to mollify my dear beloved daughter," Ammi said while moving infront of her from her back seeing her Haseena turned her face to other side and by then she was sobbing fully. With a sweet smile spreaded across her face she added, "I did not knew my Haseena knows to get angry on her Ammi too" she paused held her ears and said lovingly looking at her Haseena, "But Ammi also knows how to woo her daughter....Won't you look at Ammi once?" she asked filling her voice with all the love hearing which Haseena crossed her arms to her chest and shook her head sobbing fully. Ammi chuckled at her cute antics and added, "You are Ammi's lifeline, baby....Ammi got scared of people that day as your ammi is not as much brave as you are.....but I promise from now on, I will never give an ear to people's nonsense.....Please baby won't you forgive your ammi??" But when she saw Haseena is not budging except her sobbings have increased she added once again, "Okay....if not this then tell me....shall I do sit ups??" with that she bend to do one but just then Haseena at once held her through her shoulder shaking her head. Next instant, she was crying loudly with hiccups tightening her grip around her mother and repeating this, "I am Abu's daughter.....i am...." "Yes, my dear....Abu's name, his legacy, his love....you are his only and rightfully deserved heir.....if your Abu would have been alive, he would be the proudest father at this moment." Ammi's words have successfully soothed her daughter's heart and wiped away her tears too. "Come I will feed you your favourite delicacy with my own hands," Ammi said dragging her to the bed and the mother-daughter duo had spent some beautiful moments after a long time.

A few days later Haseena's feet had been healed fully. Everyone was enjoying the pleasant weather sitting in lawns of the Haveli enjoying tea and snacks when a house maid came to Haseena, "Choti Sarkar, some one had come to meet you, he was telling his name Zakir." "Zakir!! Bring him here..." Haseena exclaimed excitedly while Anubhav and Karishma smirked looking at each other, "It will be fun!!" Anubhav whispered in Karishma's ears who whispered back, "I suggest you should enjoy this moment as much as you can because after that Bhabi will make you run in whole Haveli." "Nothing such will happen.....and anyways, I am not afraid of your Bhabi...I know how to handle her...." He flaunted himself raising his collar seeing which Karishma giggled and added, "No need to speak so high my dear bhayya.....i know you and her both too well.....let's just wait and watch."

In between there whispering, a handsome boy entered the lawns. "Zakir!! What a pleasant surprise!!!" Haseena said giving him a side hug who also reciprocated it with wide smile. He moved towards Mahipal and Ammi and greeted them both. "Haseena, who is he?" Karishma asked. "He is my..." Haseena was about to introduce him but he intervene and added, "I am Haseena's fiancée, Zakir Khan." "What??" Haseena shouted horrifically while everyone pretended to be equally shocked and all at once shouted her name together. "No...i...he..." Haseena was too shocked to react. "Very bad di, you loved someone else and engaged to someone else." Santosh added with disappointing expressions. "But......" Haseena once again tried to say something but Mahipal intervened, "Haseena beta, i thought he is just your childhood friend....and does n't you introduced Anubhav as the guy with whom you want to marry....What is this haseena?" "Papa..." she tried but this time Ammi intervened, "Haseena!! What is this?" Haseena was in terrible condition unable to explain herself while everyone else was giggling under her breath, enjoying her teasing together. Anubhav added with wet eyes and extremely broken face, perfectly pretending that for once Karishma's eyes bluged out too, "Haseena!!! Such a big deceit.....why you had make me dreamt of yourself when you were to marry him..." Haseena's eyes welled up seeing him. "Haseena! Don't worry....sooner or later this truth must have come out.....I am there with you at every step of your life." Zakir said holding Haseena's hand which angered Haseena to her core and she granted him a tight slap that he fell on the ground, "Shut up!! You idiot......what get into your head? And when we get engaged in the first place...." She at once moved towards Anubhav and added, "Anu...please...he is lying...he is just my childhood friend...nothing more than that...." "That's what I am saying Haseena, I am your childhood friend and your love too....i know you are saying this because you are scared of your family's reaction....but don't worry baby I am there with you." Zakir said once again moving towards her. "You....you idiot...shut up. I neither love you nor engaged to you in fact I love only and only Anubhav, I love him and will only get married to him...." She confessed in front of every one in her anger but get shocked when she found everyone smiling and giggling looking at her including Zakir and Anubhav. "Hmm.....we understood beta....now I guess we should get you married to your Anubhav as soon as possible...." Mahipal added looking at her and everyone laughed loudly while she looked down getting red in embarrasement. "Anubhav, Bro!! How are you?" Zakir said hugging him. "Absolutely perfect!!" he responded smilingly. "Now happy, I even get beaten up by my best friend for you...." Zakir completed regardless of his shaking head.

Karishma looked at Haseena who was now glaring Anubhav, with her sleeves curled up and hands at her both side hip bones, "Best of luck bhayya!!" she whispered to him who started stepping backwards, "Haseena ji!! Please...look everyone is watching us..." "Now when they had seem my love for you then they should see my anger also..." Haseena said stepping towards him while everyone laughed out loudly. "Sorry, Sorry!!" He shouted and ran inside the haveli at full speed, "Anu!!! Today, you cannot be escaped from me...." Haseena shouted and ran behind him. "Poor Anubhav bhayya!! Behna will not leave him today..." Shorya added.

"Bhai sahib, Behen ji! Now when everything is alright and we all are together. I think it is the best time for this." Sandhya said withdrawing everyone's attention towards her. Karishma who knew what her mother was about to say, moved beside her with full of excitement. "You seems happier than your brother....think once my dear daughter in law, Haseena is already your senior in Police station and now she will be in home too..." Pushpa ji whispered in her ear teasing her. "Amma, she is senior only in Police Station and at home before bhabi she is my best friend..." Karishma retorted back whispering. "My innocent daughter in law, once her alliance is fixed with your brother than the only relation which will be there between you both would be Bhabi and nand......and what if she would be a strict bhabi...." Pushpa ji teased Karishma more who imagined Haseena ruling over her and gets horrified. At once shrugging away her horrific imagination she glared Pushpa ji who got silent suppressing her smile

Standing beside her, Ammi asked Sandhya, "Best time, but for what?" "Mahipal Bhai sahib, Behen ji, as Anubhav's mother I am asking your daughter Haseena's hand for him. Please, grant my wish....i want to make Haseena my daughter." Hearing Sandhya's proposal Ammi's eyes get wet with happy tears while Mahipal was smiling widely. They both looked at each other and noded agreeing to her proposal. Everyone got elated and hugged each other. "Now, when we all are gathered here, I wish to do a large engagement ceremony tomorrow here in village only. What do you all have to say?" Mahipal asked everyone. "Great idea!!" Sandhya added and everyone seconded her. "Perfect, then it will be a huge festival in this village....after all it will be the engagement ceremony of their choti Sarkar," Mahipal exclaimed extremely happy for the occasion.

Back in haveli, Haseena was running behind Anubhav holding a broom in her hand who was running here and there across the sofas, jumping over them getting hit by broom in between, "Sorry, Sorry Haseena.....i just wanted to hear from you that you love me...." In their cat and mouse chase, they reached in Haseena's room. Getting tired, he held her ears and started doing situps. Seeing him, Haseena laughed whole heartedly to which he pouted, "I am not talking to you!!!" he turned making a grumpy face. She moved near him, faced him towards herself and crossed her arms across his shoulder. Looking deep in his eyes, huskily and slowly moving her face near his, she whispered, "My dear Anu is wishing to hear my confession....." He nodded slightly shocked at her sensually bold advances as he found her putting his hands on her wasit. Provoking his hormones by sliding her finger from his forehead to his lips, keeping her lips dangerously close to his, she whispered causing her's to rub at the edge of his lips, "Haven't you heard actions speaks louder than words, my dear hubby!!!!" That's it, he lost all his resolve and next instant smashed his lips with hers. She smiled first and then equally participated with him. Breaking their first ever soul touching kiss, Haseena blushed profusely and hid her face in his chest while Anubhav was on cloud nine and engulfed her in his strong arm, "I did not knew you could be this bold.....i love you so much Ms Haseena Malik!!" lifting her face with twinkling eyes, she whispered back, "I love you too Mr Anubhav Singh!!!" with that she freed herself from his grip and ran away from there leaving him happiest, smiling and ruffling his hair.

In hall way, Shorya and Cheetah was standing with shorya's hand on Cheetah's shoulder giving his head in his advising him, "just keep in mind what I had told you and I am giving you hundred percent guarantee she will be yours...." "Are you shure, Shorya bhai?? Please I don't want to lose her friendship...." Cheetah asked biting his nails. "Cheetah! Nothing such will happen.....now go....i will send her to terrace," Shorya said pushing him to the stairs and himself moved to the lounge where everyone was sitting. "Santosh!! Cheetah is calling you on terrace...he wants to discuss about Behna's engagement ceremony with you." "Okay," Santosh replied and moved towards terrace. "What about that and why he had to discuss it alone with her?" Karishma asked his husband who put his arm on her shoulder and added, "try and understand my dear wife.....Cheetah wants to talk to his dear Santu ji alone..." "Ooohhh!!! That means you had finally convinced him to propose her." She added. "Of course.......always ready to play cupid." He added and they both laughed while around them, Anubhav was drowned in his mobile, and elders were busy discussing arrangements, Haseena was in Kitchen arranging for tea and snacks and Mansi was in her room busy with her chores.

On terrace, Santosh entered to see on left side swing was decorated with multicolored flowers vines, fence was decorated with green vines and rose petals was spreaded on floor. Cool breeze was blowing, wheather was cloudy and soft music was humming. A beautiful smile crept up her lips seeing such a soul seething atmosphere, closing her eyes, opening her arms, she faced up in the sky feeling fresh air on her face. Few minutes later, she opened her eyes and got shocked seeing Cheetah sitting on his knee in front of her, "Cheetah!!" He coughed slightly to clear his voice, took a deep breath and forwarded his one hand to her who gave her one in his and added, "Ms Santosh Sharma, I am madly and insanely in love with you since I had first saw you. I am in love with your innocent soul and pure heart. I promise to protect you, to love you and to keep you happy with all my heart and soul." As he saw her expressions changing from shock to happiness, he took out ring from his other pocket and added, "Will you give me chance to fill your life with all sorts of colors? Will you marry me?" looking at her with expectant eyes and with holding his breath, presenting ring to her and sitting on his knees, he was waiting for her response. With fluttering heart, feeing goosebumps all over her body, experience a strange loving feeling in the pit of her stomach, reddened cheeks and wide smiles, she nodded, "Yes, yes, I do Cheetah!!" Happy tears flowing from both eyes, Cheetah slid his ring in her ring finger, she stand him up through his shoulders and dug his face in his chest, "I love you Cheetah!!" He wrapped his arms around her, securing his world in his arms and whispered back, "I love you too Santu ji!!"

Back in lounge, everyone was settled in lounge in a way that Karishma's back was facing its door when Haseena entered the lounge pushing the trolly of tea and snacks. Haseena winked at Pushpa ji and Sandhya who was sitting facing the door. "Karishma beta!! Where are your manners, Haseena is serving tea and your are sitting idle.....beta she is your to-be-Bhabi, learn to give her respect." Sandhya reprimanded her. "Aammm.....o..okay!!" Karishma stood up confused at her mother and then said, "Give it to me Haseena, I will serve it." "Now what is this? she is elder to you in age and soon in relation too, address her as Haseena di or just di and after her marriage with your Anu bhayya you must address her as Bhabi. Right Behn ji?" Puhspa ji added looking at her. "Absolutely right." Sandhya responded. Haseena was suppressing her laughter, including Anubhav and Shorya while Karsihma said utterly confused while forwarding cup of tea to everyone, "Now what is this nonsense, before all of this, she is my friend and I have always addressed her as Haseena off duty." "Beta, at that time her alliance wasn't fixed with your brother. Soon she will be your Bhabi and according to our family customs, Bhabi holds much higher place of respect. What say Behan ji?" Sandhya said throwing the ball in Pushpa ji's court, "Absolutely, From now on, you must keep in mind that you can not backtalk with her and also you need to stop being so casual with her. In short, she won't be your friend anymore but your Bhabi and you have to just obey her and respect her." Pushpa ji had perfectly exaggerated Sandhya's words creating a horrific imagination in Karishma's mind. Frightened and deeply drowned in horrific imagination of both the mother's words, she sat back down with holding cup of tea without giving one to Haseena. "Just now I had told your everything in detail but you did not understand anything....there is no place left for her to sit still you sat calmly and moreover you yourself are having tea but you had not presented to her....Very bad!!" Sandhya reprimanded her once again. By then Karishma was extremely worried, she looked at Haseena with expectant eyes, "Why you are not saying anything to them? Won't you be my friend anymore?" Haseena had shrugged her shoulder and added, "what can I say Karishma, what is tradition is a tradition...." "No, I don't accept such horrible customs and if it is so important then I won't make you my Bhabi. You are first my best friend then Anu bhayya's to-be-wife, I agreed to share her with him but you people want to snatch her completely from me.....no, no....she is mine and only mine...." Karishma at once shouted with wet eyes and ran inside leaving Haseena shocked. "Oh!! I guess we have overdone it....Let me check!!" Haseena added looking at everyone worriedly and ran behind her leaving all other's with rolling eyes.

"Karishma!! Listen to me.....Karishma!!" Haseena was calling her from behind who stormed into her room, fell on bed on her stomach and started crying while mumbling, "Haseena is my best friend....i won't call her Bhabi....i won't share her with anyone...." Overwhelmed with emotions, Haseena moved towards her and forcefully made her sat. She had wiped away her tears through her both hands, shook her head sideways and then held her both ears, "I am so sorry baby!! I had asked them to tease you like this.....i....wanted to do a small prank on you.....sorry..." "What? Is this something to prank with....don't you find anything else? You are very bad!!" Karishma added hitting her on her shoulders getting angry on her as well as smiling and crying, all at the same time while Haseena was smiling at her cute antics, "Sorry baby!! Please....." "Okay!! But... but on once condition..." Karishma added making a pout. Haseena chuckled and added, "Okay, what is it?" "That even after becoming my Bhabi you will love me the same..." Karishma asked. "Promise my dear baby!!" Haseena responded and took her in a bone crushing hug who reciprocated her equally.

Haseena and Karishma was still in the room, completely forgetting their surroundings, laughing, enjoying and chit-chatting with each other when a house maid entered, "Choti Sarkar! An official letter has come, Anubhav bhayya is calling you both." "Okay, we are coming." Haseena responded and they both moved towards lounge happily. In the lounge, Santosh and cheetah had also present there along with others when they both entered, "What happened Anu bhayya?" Karishma asked while entering. Anubhav smiled and handover the letter to Haseena, "Have a look!" Giving a confused look, she take out two papers from the envelope. "Two letter, one is from the Intelligence organization while other is from Police department." She added and read the first one. Smiling fully she added, "Congratulations Anubhav you have been promoted to Senior Intelligence officer-2 and Karishma many many congratulations to you too, you have been appointed as senior Intelligence officer-1" elatedly she gave both of them a hug who responded with equal enthusiasm, "Thank you!" "Haseena now please, read the next one too!!" Anubhav added showing great excitement, "What is in it that you are getting so eager." Karishma added when Haseena opened it and added, "Wow, Karishma....baby you have been appointed as S.H.O of woman Police Station, Lukhnow.....My goodness!!" Haseena read the first two lines and hugged her excitedly while Karishma got shocked, "But....but...you are S.H.O there....won't you join Police force again..." she asked worriedly. "I.....i haven't resigned from there....but I don't know where they had transferred me....let me read ahead!!" Haseena added and looked back at the document. As soon as she read the whole, she got shocked, her body went numb and she fell back on sofa, "Haseena!! What happened?" Karishma shook her but got no response. Taking the paper from her she read it and jumped in happiness and excitement, "wow!!! Haseena is the new commissioner of Lukhnow!!!" Anubhav at once shook Haseena, "Haseena you got promoted to commission post....Haseena!!! I am so happy!!!" he twirled her around who was now laughing coming out of initial shock. "Wait! Wait! If Haseena is commissioner now that means.....and Anu bhayya is DSP....that means....Haseena is now his senior in Police and in I.O. too.....Wow!! Amazing" Karishma added and Haseena chuckled. "So what? She is even your senior too!!" Anubahv at once protested. "My dear Anu bhayya....she has always been my Senior and will always be.....but in your case....she was your junior and now she is your senior.....earlier she used to saluted you and now you will saluted her......I am suggesting, Haseena to be strict with him....he had scolded us enough being our senior." Karishma said putting her arms on Haseena's shoulder. "Karishmaaaa!!!" Anubhav cringed at him and jumped towards her who ran away showing her tongue to him while he started running behind her and brother sister's cat and mouse chase began, leaving every one amused.

Next day evening, it was engagement ceremony, whole village was decorated with large and small, multicolored lights. Stage was set under the stars, in Haveli's large and luxurious lawns. Background was white decorated with a think flower belt at top and side edges, both sides of the stage had mid length pillars on top of which flowers were placed. Sofa was set in the centre. Ahead of the stage was dance floor while both sides had round tables upon which many high profile guests were present. On the stage, Haseena was wearing beautiful baby pink colored Lehenga with golder embroidery while Aubhav was wearing a golden sherwani. Karishma had forwarded the ring to Anubhav while Shorya had forwarded the ring to Haseena. Amidst loud applauses and soft music beats, both had slid rings in each other's ring fingers, finally sealing their relationship forever.

Shorya, Karishma, Santosh and Cheetah moved to the dance floor and set the stage on fire by dancing with full energy and enthusiasm, synchronizing perfectly with lyrics and music beats of the song "Shakar Wandaan" Everyone enjoyed their performance, including Anubhav and Haseena sitting on stage.

Yeh Suraj Se Bhi Keh Do

Ke Apni Aag Bujha Ke Kare

Yeh Suraj Se Bhi Keh Do

Ke Apni Aag Bujha Ke Kare

Agar Usse Baatein Karni Hai

Toh Phir Nazar Jhuka Ke Kare

Toh Phir Nazar Jhuka Ke Kare

Taare Uske Hath Mein Hone Hi Chahiye

Jugnu Uske Sath Mein Sone Hi Chahiye

Oh khushbuon Se Uski Sifarish Ki Jaaye

Oh khushbuon Se Uski Sifarish Ki Jaaye

Sifarish Ki Jaaye

Aye Khuda Tu Bol De Tere Baadalon Ko

Aye Khuda Tu Bol De Tere Baadalon Ko

Mera Yaar Hass Raha Hai Baarish Ki Jaaye

Yaar Hass Raha Hai Baarish Ki Jaaye

Yeh Suraj Se Bhi Keh Do

Ke Apni Aag Bujha Ke Kare

Agar Usse Baatein Hain Karni

Toh Nazrein Jhuka Ke Kare

Ho Yeh Suraj Se Bhi Keh Do

Apni Aag Bujha Ke Kare

Agar Usse Baatein Karni Hain

Toh Nazrein Jhuka Ke Kare

Mohabbat Jaani Ki Poori Khwahish Ki Jaaye

Mohabbat Jaani Ki Poori Khwahish Ki Jaaye

Khwahish Ki Jaaye

Aye Khuda Tu Bol De Tere Baadalon Ko

Aye Khuda Tu Bol De Tere Baadalon Ko

Mera Yaar Hass Raha Hai Baarish Ki Jaaye

Yaar Hass Raha Hai Baarish Ki Jaaye

Haaye Aashiq Ho Jaane Mein

Kitna Waqt Lagta Hai

Rab Ke Ghar Mein Aane Mein

Kitna Waqt Lagta Hai

Dekha Usey Toh Yeh Maloom Hua

Ke Jannat Ko Paane Mein

Kitna Waqt Lagta Hai

Yeh Zamana Jaane Na Kya Kara Sakti Hai

Oh Yaar Mere Ki Nazrein Hai

Dariya Dooba Sakti Hai

Uska Bas Chale Toh Saara Dariya Pee Jaaye

Uska Bas Chale Toh Saara Dariya Pee Jaaye

Aye Khuda Aye Khuda

Aye Khuda Tu Bol De Tere Baadalon Ko

Mera Yaar Hass Raha Hai Baarish Ki Jaaye

Yaar Hass Raha Hai Baarish Ki Jaaye

Aye Khuda Tu Bol De Tere Baadalon Ko

Mera Yaar Hass Raha Hai Barish Ki Jaye

Yaar Hass Raha Hai Baarish Ki Jaaye

Baarish Ki Jaaye

Na Duniya Ke Liye Likhte

Na Mere Liye Likhte

Na Duniya Ke Liye Likhte

Na Mere Liye Likhte

Ha Ha-Haa

Ghalib Zinda Hote Toh Tere Liye Likhte

Ghalib Zinda Hote Toh Tere Liye Likhte

Tere Liye Likhte..

By the end of the song Haseena was overwhelmed with emotions that she could not stop herself and replied his love by singing these lyrics for him moving on the floor, roaming around him who was stirring the strings of guitar for his lady love.

Maine Jab Dekha Tha Tujhko

Raat Bhi Woh Yaad Hai Mujhko

Taare Ginte Ginte So Gaya

Dil Mera Dhadka Tha Kass Ke

Kuch Kaha Tha Tune Hass Ke

Main Usi Pal Tera Ho Gaya

Aasmano Pe Jo Khuda Hai

Usse Meri Yahi Dua Hai

Chand Yeh Har Roz Main Dekhu

Tere Sath Mein

Aankh Uthi Mohabbat Ne Angrai Li

Dil Ka Sauda Hua Chandani Raat Mein

Oh Teri Nazron Ne Kuch Aisa Jaadoo Kiya

Lut Gaye Hum Toh Pehli Mulaqaat Mein

Oh Aankh Uthi!

Paao Rakhna Na Zameen Par

Jaan Rukja Tu Ghadi Bhar

Thode Taare Toh Bichha Du

Main Tere Vaaste

Aajmale Mujhko Yaara

Tu Zara Sa Kar Ishaara

Dil Jala Ke Jagmaga Du

Main Tere Raaste

Haan Mere Jaisa Ishq Mein Pagal

Phir Mile Ya Na Mile Kal

Sochna Kya Hath Ye Dede

Mere Hath Mein

Aankh Uthi Mohabbat Ne Angrai Li

Dil Ka Sauda Hua Chandani Raat Mein

Oh Teri Nazron Ne Kuch Aisa Jaadoo Kiya

Lut Gaye Hum Toh Pehli Mulaqaat Mein

Oh Aankh Uthi!

Haan Kisse Mohabbat Ke

Hain Jo Kitabon Mein

Sab Chahta Hoon Main

Sang Tere Dohrana

Kitna Zaroori Hai

Ab Meri Khatir Tu

Mushqil Hai Mushqil Hai

Lafzon Mein Keh Pana

Ab Toh Yeh Alam Hai

Tu Jaan Mange Toh

Main Shaunk Se Dedu

Saugat Mein

Aankh Uthi Mohabbat Ne Angrai Li

Dil Ka Sauda Hua Chandani Raat Mein

Oh Teri Nazron Ne Kuch Aisa Jaadoo Kiya

Lut Gaye Hum Toh Pehli Mulaqaat Mein

Oh Aankh Uthi

After the ceremony, whole family was sitting in lounge watching movie, enjoying and chit-chating with each other when Haseena's phone rang. Moving out of Anubhav's arms she went to a side to take the call. Couple of minutes later, she returned with serious expressions, "What happened Haseena?" Anubhav asked withdrawing every one's attention towards her. "Country needs us once again." Hearing her words both Anubhav and Karishma stood up attentively. Haseena added again, "An extremely dangerous gang is active in Mumbai, Aarav sir wants three of us to uproot it completely. We need to leave for Mumbai right now." "Let's go then!!!" Karishma added moving towards Haseena. "Our duty was, is and will always be the first and foremost for us." Anubhav added looking at both of them. With that the three of them moved towards exit of the Haveli, Haseena two steps ahead while Anubhav and Karishma at her both sides, leaving behind their proud family.

And like this, the team of three continued to fight the battles one after another for freeing their society from crime and illegal activities and kept on winning many titles and bravery awards. Time started passing, cities changed, ranks changed, relationships changed but one thing which never changed between them is their love and friendship.
