Riddhima cried to her heart content in his arms while Vansh was hell confused that what happened which made her cry like this? She was all red by face & his blazer was all wet by her tears. After a while she stopped crying. She with her cute doe shaped eyes tilted her head & looked at her Ansh.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh.... (she whispered slowly).

Vansh looked at his girl who was looking so cute & adorable. He lovingly wiped her eyes clearing the tears from her eyelashes & placed his lips on her forehead. Riddhima tugged his blazer tightly & closed her eyes feeling the moment. Vansh too closed his eyes. A serene smile crept on her face & her eyes were still closed. Vansh was amused to see his effect on her.

RIDDHIMA: More

Vansh kissed her eyes. She smiled a little more.

RIDDHIMA: More

Vansh kissed her cute button red nose, then her cheeks, then her chin & at last placed a kiss on her crown.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh I like you.

VANSH: Like you too Sweetheart.

Vansh took his handkerchief out & wiped her face.

VANSH: Sweetheart are you a camera? Because just one look at you & I start smiling like anything.

Riddhima giggled at his cheesy line. Her giggle was the only sound that was audible at the time & Vansh felt surreal living that moment. He immediately took his phone & pulling her close to him captured that moment in his phone as a lifetime memory.

Meanwhile Angre's call came.

VANSH: Haan Angre bolo.

ANGRE: Vansh Bhai aap ne Vardhan ko bulaya, anything serious?

VANSH: No Angre. Actually we are at Smriti Van aur maine time limit personally extend karvai hain toh we were alone so didn't wanted to take chance of Ridhhu's security.

ANGRE: Okay no problem. Aap wahan se wapas aao tab Kapoor Mansion wala route mat lijiyega. Di dekheggi toh jaane ki zid karegi aur abhi unka wahan jana thik nahi hain.

VANSH: I'll take care of it.

ANGRE: Okay bye enjoy.

VANSH: Bye.

They cut the call.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh

VANSH: Hmm...

RIDDHIMA: Aap apni engagement ring kesi chahte ho?

VANSH: Jo tumhein pasand aae. Aur tum batao.

RIDDHIMA: I want you to select it & I know ki aap ne kuch special choose kar ke hi rakha hoga.

VANSH: Hmm. But I've two rings I don't know which one to use when.

RIDDHIMA: Why two?

VANSH: Woh I'll tell you afterwards.

RIDDHIMA: Can I help you out?

VANSH: Off course.

RIDDHIMA: For our engagement we can go with couple rings.

VANSH: How come you know that one among the two is couple rings?

Riddhima looked into his eyes with a smile & then kissed on his heart over his blazer.

RIDDHIMA: Because I reside here.

Vansh smiled hearing her.

VANSH: Done. Wanna see the designs?

Riddhima just nodded. Like these they talked & enjoyed their own lovey dovey moments. Then they left for their dinner. After dinner they left for Raisinghania Mansion but not before taking chocolate truffle pastries for everyone.

When they reached Mansion everyone were sitting in garden enjoying bonfire while Ajay was walking in garden & was talking with someone on call. Riddhima smiled & went to him & hugged him from behind.

RIDDHIMA: Papa....

Ajay cut the call immediately & turned around taking her in his fatherly embrace. Brushing her hairs he kissed her head.

AJAY: Aa gaya mera bacha.

Riddhima with a smile bobbed her head making everyone smile at her innocence. They were near swing so just sat there. Riddhima sat in side sitting position hugging Ajay. She was just describing how they enjoyed & he was hearing her with all smiles.

NEELA: Raja Sa aaj humari beti kitni khush hain na. Shekhar aur Jahnvi ke jaane ke baad toh jese woh hasna, khush rehna bhul hi gae thi. Aur yeh masoomiyat toh pata nahi jese gum si ho gai thi.

PRITHVI: Haan Rani Sa sach keh rahi hain aap. Kiyaan aur Angre ki toh humein fikar hi nahi thi kabhi kyun ki Riddhima thi unke saath par ab humein unki bhi fikar nahi hain, Vansh aur Raisinghania family hain unhein sambhal ne ke liye. Ab hum befikar ho ke jaa sakte hain.

KIYAAN: Aap kahan jaane ki baat kar rahe hain?

PRITHVI: Beta hum aur aap ke Mami Sa ab London chale jana chahte hain.

Kiyaan went to Prithvi & kneeled down infront of him.

KIYAAN: Kyun Mama Sa? Kuch baat hain toh bataiye na?

PRITHVI: Aap toh sab jaante hain beta. Ab humse yahan nahi raha jata yahan har waqt humein Umang ki yaad dilati hain. Aur ab aap teeno hain yahan par sab kuch sambhal ne ke liye.

KIYAAN: Mama isiliye aap Di ka Rajya Abhishek karna chahte hain.

NEELA: Beta Rajya Abhishek toh kab ka karna chahte the par humesha humein unki fikar rehti thi. Woh sab ko sambhal ti aae hain par khud kisi se kuch nahi share karti. Par ab Vansh aur Raisinghania parivaar hain unhein sambhal ne ke liye aur hum jaante hain woh apne farz se piche nahi hategi.

Saying this tears brimmed in Kiyaan, Angre, Prithvi & Neela's eyes. Kiyaan just hugged Neela.

KIYAAN: Hum apna vada nahi todenge Mami Sa. Kuch bhi ho jae chahe koi bhi kimat chukani pade hum...

NEELA: Shhh... bas jaante hain beta. Aap ko isse aage kuch kehne ki zaroorat nahi hain.

Kiyaan broke the hug & sat beside Siya. After sometime he laid down keeping his head in Siya's lap.

AKSHAT: Prithvi Ji, Neela Ji hum yeh to nahi jaante ki kya baat hain par aap se itna zaroor kahenge ki hum humesha aap ke saath hain. Agar humare layak kuch kaam ho, hum sab ki madad kar pae toh humein badi khushi hogi.

PRITHVI: Shukriya Akshat Ji. Aap ne toh humein humari sabse badi khushiyan lautai hain. Riddhima ki masoomiyat, unki khushi aur chain lautaya hain. Siya mein humein Jahnvi ki parchae dikhai deti hain toh Vansh mein humein Shekhar ki. Jo kuch aap ne kiya hain hum iske abhari hain.

Akshat smiled & nodded. Meanwhile Ramu Kaka came with pastries in garden. Ajay & Riddhima too went there. Ajay sat beside Rudra.

RUDRA: Riddhima, Siya, Ishu tum teeno yahan aa jao.

Trio sat infront of them. Rudra & Ajay started feeding them with their own hands. While Uma & Chanchal started feeding Vansh, Rehaan, Aryan, Kiyaan & Angre. While the old couples Akshat & Indrani & Prithvi & Neela admired them. After finishing it Rudra made Riddhima lay down in his lap & was brushing her hairs while her face was glowing like anything with a never ending shine in eyes & a serene smile on her lips.

INDRANI: Riddhima beta Raisinghania Parivaar ki ek parampara hain nae jode baat paki hone ke baad Nathdwara Shrinathji Mandir darshan ke liye jate hain. Toh kya..

She was cut by Riddhima.

RIDDHIMA: Hum jaenge Dadi. Bhale hi hum bhagwan mein yakeen nahi rakhte par humare Parivaar ki paramparao ko kabhi nahi tut ne denge. Bataiye kab jana hain aur kya karna hain?

INDRANI: Beta jab tum aur Vansh jana chaho tab.

RIDDHIMA: Vansh kya kare?

VANSH: Kal hi chale jate hain aap sab nahi aa rahe hain?

KIYAAN: Nahi Bhai hum toh kal Jodhpur ke liye nikal rahe hain aap ki sagai ki taiyariyaan bhi toh karni hain.

REHAAN: Papa kyun na esa kare ki hum sab bhi Jodhpur ke liye chale jae. Hum taiyariyaan karne mein help kar denge aur Bhai aur Bhabhi kal seedha wahan se Jodhpur aa jaenge.

AJAY: Sounds nice beta aur vaise bhi abhi Kiyaan ko itna stress nahi lena hain.

PRITHVI: Toh phir hum sab kal Jodhpur ke liye nikalte hain aur Vansh aur Riddhima Nathdwara ke liye.

EVERYONE: Done..

After enjoying for a while everyone left to their room. Riddhima after changing went to Uma.

RIDDHIMA: Maa mein kal saree pehn kar jana chahti hoon toh aap help kar dijiye na.

UMA: Thik hain chal aaja.

Both went to Uma's closet & were selecting. Indrani came for some work.

INDRANI: Bacho soe nahi abhi tak?

RIDDHIMA: Dadi woh mein Maa se saree lene aai thi.

INDRANI: Main help kar doon.

RIDDHIMA: Haan yeh hum ne sort out kar ke rakhi hain.

INDRANI: Uma yaad hain yeh wali saree tune aur Chanchal ne twining kari hain. Chanchal ke paas jo colour hain woh

UMA: Vansh ka favourite he hain na Maa.

INDRANI: Haan par humne kaha aur Vansh ka favourite hain isiliye nahi par tujhe jo pasand aae woh tu pehn na.

RIDDHIMA: Ji Dadi main abhi woh dekh kar aati hoon.

UMA: Thik hain par Jwelery bhi dekhti jaa baad mein agar kuch acha na lage toh Chanchal ke paas dekh lena.

Indrani left the room as she was feeling sleepy while Ajay came & saw both ladies were busy in selecting jwelery. Ajay's eyes went on one of he beautiful pair of earrings. He took that & gave it to Riddhima.

AJAY: Riddhima bacha yeh dekh tujh pe achi lagegi.

Riddhima with a smile took it.

AJAY: Thank you Papa bahot achi hain.

She hugged Ajay & Uma & wishing them good night left to Chanchal's room.
