As per plan Riddhima, Jahnvi & Shekhar along with Umamg & Malini landed in India at Mumbai airport & reporters were waiting for just their one glance. Shekhar was dressed in pure punjabi way.

(His white kurta & black shoes same as it is but turban & shawl matched with Jahnvi's saree & his princess's dress. Shawl draped like below👇)

(Jahnvi's saree but draped as below 👇 carrying her tradition as royal princess of rajasthan)

(Riddhima's dress but her head too covered like Jahnvi)

As soon as they came out their guards were around. Umang & Malini too were with them.

MEDIA: Sir, Mam one picture please....

They were shouting for their one picture so Riddhima whispered in Shekhar's ear.

RIDDHIMA: Let's pose with them Papa Sa they won't let us leave.

Shekhar nodded & first Umang & Malini posed & then Shekhar wrapped his shoulder around his daughter & one hand wrapped around Jahnvi's waist & posed for photo.

SHEKHAR: Thank you so much.

Saying this he guarding his wife & daughter escorted them to their car. First he opened door for his daughter & then for his wife & then settled in passenger seat. In another car was Umang & Malini & soon their security team escorted them to Ananta Mansion & from there they stepped in their choppers & reached Sisodiya Palace as next day morning there was Pooja. Reaching there they were surprised seeing the palace decorated like a new bride. Malini was looking outside with surprised looks,

MALINI: Umang yeh....

UMANG: Yeh aap ke aane ki khushi hain Malini. Maa Sa & Papa Sa has waited & dreamt a lot for this day.

Stepping down he saw Siya coming towards them & she lovingly gave dupatta to Malini. Before anyone could know they saw Riddhima running inside & saw Vansh coming out with everyone.

EVERYONE: Araam se Riddhi/Beta/Bhabhi Maa....

But avoiding everyone's voice she ran to Vansh's arms & he hided her in his arms.

VANSH: Mera bunny kya hua haan bacha.

RIDDHIMA: An...Ansh.....

Her voice got struck & knew she's on the verge of crying.

VANSH: Haan meri Jaan....

She didn't spoke anything & snuggled to Vansh. All prayed for their happiness with smile.

SIYA: Mami Sa yeh aap ko apne sar par rakhna hain aap ke swagat ke liye. Also Mami Sa aap ko Mama Sa ki pagh bandhni hain.

MALINI: Par mujhe nahi aata main kya karungi???

She asked being panicked.

JAHNVI: Koi nahi Malini aap stress mat lijiye hum help kar denge.

SIYA: No Mumma aap rest karoge aur Papa aap bhi. It's been long journey. Chalo sit on sofa it's not good to stress yourself.

Shekhar & Jahnvi smiled knowing her care & then they sat beside Vansh & Riddhima who were sitting on sofa. Siya guided Malini & he wrapped path on Umang's head. Umang & Malini were welcomed & soon day passed. Next morning they all sat in pooja in couples & then they went for lunch at different timings to avoid media attention which was held in palace's other side where media person & other important personalities were present. Like this they finished attending events at all three palaces but toughest was for family members to behave formally & for couples to ignore their love. Riddhima was the grumpiest & most frustrated one.

AFTER WEEK,

They all have came back to Mumbai & at night they were having dinner.

RIDDHIMA: Maa Sa, Papa Sa, Umang Mama Sa, Malini Mami Sa kal aap ko business empires ki briefing di jaegi. Sharp at 10:00 in my study.

As said next day they were at study with all the family members. First Umang & Malini were briefed about Shekhawat Empire & then they retired to their room as Malini needs rest due to pregnancy & Umang wanted to be with her. Raisinghanias due to work load left to office after lunch. It was only Jahnvi, Shekhar, Kiyaan, Angre, Riddhima, Myra, Pooja & Siya. It was lunch time & their lunch was sent with their medicines. These went with next two days. Siya made sure all had rest too. At fourth day at evening,

RIDDHIMA: This is it....

SHEKHAR: Alright as it was I'll be handling Sisodiya Empire & Jahnvi will be taking Kapoor Empire.

RIDDHIMA: Hmm....

VANSH: Riddhima.....

He silently warned to give proper reply to Shekhar.

RIDDHIMA: Haan Papa Sa....

She said looking at him & all stiffed their laughter.

RIDDHIMA: Aap Monday se join kar sakte ho tab tak your personal bodyguards & security teams will be arranged & other security matters needed to be handled.

SHEKHAR: Thik hain puttar....

Late at night Vansh & Riddhima were sitting in lawn with glass of alcohol.

VANSH: Kyun pareshaan ho???

RIDDHIMA: Yeh toofan ke aane se pehle ki shanti hain Ansh. Unko jab sab pata chalega it will be a disaster.

VANSH: Meri Riddhu kabhi apne Mumma aur Dadda se nahi dari aaj kyun??? They are your safe place meri Jaan don't worry......

RIDDHIMA: I know but you too are my safe place, my home.....

Vansh smiled at her & this melted her heart & they kissed each other devouring each others lips. Breaking the kiss he cradling her face in his palms kept her lips on her forehead giving her peace, followed by her eyes, nose, cheeks & chin. Shekhar & Jahnvi not able to sleep were strolling in terrace garden & saw all this. Riddhima sat on his lap wrapping her legs around his waist & hid her face in his neck.

RIDDHIMA: So jana hain Ansh humein.

Vansh smiled & squeezed her in his arms & was humming soft tunes along with rubbing her back & patting his head softly. Riddhima slowly drifted to sleep & Vansh sat there for sometime & then carried her to their room. Shekhar & Jahnvi was returning to their room & met them in way. Shekhar caressed Riddhima's head who was sleeping peacefully in his arms.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh Dadda.....

Shekhar's eyes turned moist hearing Dadda from her mouth. Vansh's throat clogged knowing what this meant to her. He blinked his eyes & said,

VANSH: Dadda is here only with you meri Jaan. Mumma too is here...

RIDDHIMA: Mummaa....

She whispered in sleep & Jahnvi kissed her head & she snuggled in Vansh's chest.

VANSH: So jao baby everyone is here. Sab tumhare paas hain....

JAHNVI: Vansh if you don't mind beta can Riddhi sleep with us today???

VANSH: Mom she'll be very happy & why would I mind....

Before he could finish Kiyaan came from Vansh's room.

KIYAAN: Bhai kahan the aap aur Di?

VANSH: What happened???

KIYAAN: Work problem....

VANSH: Let it be. Kal dekh lena so gae hain....

KIYAAN: We are sleeping in your room.

Vansh chuckled & Riddhima whined.

SHEKHAR: But Riddhi is sleeping with us tonight.

KIYAAN: Toh aap bhi humare saath aa jao.

VANSH: Mom Dad it's okay I'll go to Rehaan's room & sleep there. You all can sleep in our room with Riddhu.....

Shekhar nodded & they stepped inside & saw Angre, Pooja, Myra were already present. Vansh laid Riddhu carefully on bed & adjusted her head on pillow. He went to closet & came with her soft toy & placed in her hand which she immediately clutched tight to her heart. Her sleep was getting disturbed so he sat beside her patting her head softly kissing her forehead now & then till she again drifted to sleep. Once she slept he wishing good night to everyone left. Shekhar & Jahnvi sat on each side of Riddhima while younger clan too joined them on bed.

SHEKHAR: Tum saare iss wakhat ithe ki kar rahe si???

KIYAAN: Di naal kaam tha aur phir socha aaj unke naal so jaenge.....

JAHNVI: Aap sab nu kae baar dekha hain raat ko you sab come here.....

Kiyaan laid down in her lap & said,

KIYAAN: Woh toh hum Di ko dekhne aate hain... 

SHEKHAR: Matlab????

Riddhima's sleep was getting disturbed so Shekhar took her head in his lap & kissed her forehead.

RIDDHIMA: Dadda....

SHEKHAR: Yahi hu mera jigra....

Angre went to closet & came with Vansh's shirt & kept near her heart which she clutched immediately & calmed down.

JAHNVI: Humein sab jaan na hain???

KIYAAN: Uss din aap ke jaane ke baad Riddhi Di was feeling restless so she was praying in temple. All of a sudden landline rang & as she was inside she picked it up. Kis ka call tha kuch nahi pata tha. She came out in hurry & was going somewhere but Mama Sa & Chachu didn't let her go alone. She was so terrified & they talked something to Mama Sa & Mami Sa & then they left Chachu & Riddhi Di in one car & Umang Mama Sa in one car.

ANGRE: It was late night hum sab ne pucha sab kahan hain but they made us sleep telling business issue hain. When we woke up hum ghar nahi the it was some penthouse.

MYRA: Do din hue & one afternoon we were brought to hospital & saw you in that condition. Everyone was there except Di. She came next morning all bruised.

ANGRE: Aap dono ki condition stable thi was improving but all of a sudden aap ki condition bigad ne lagi. We were informed about your...

Tears rolled down everyone's eyes.

SHEKHAR: Phir ki hoya???

MYRA: No one was in senses, three persons going all of a sudden was a big thing. Danger was lurking around us so Di took every responsibility. First we went to Shekhawat Palace & did rituals of Umang Mama Sa then we went to Kapoor Palace &.....

Before she could continue her eyes went to Riddhima who had frowns on her face & soon her body started shivering.

MYRA: Pooji call Jiju Di is getting panick.....

Saying this she ran to call Zala till then. Here Riddhima's forehead started sweating.

KIYAAN: Di kya hua????

ANGRE: Di open your eyes.....

She started shivering & was murmering,

RIDDHIMA: Mumm....Mummaa... Dad...Dadda....

She was continuously murmuring in sleep & Kiyaan & Angre were trying to wake her up. She was jerking her legs & hands & was shouting. Hearing her shout all came running along with Vansh. Vansh ran to her & Kiyaan & Angre made way for him. Shekhar & Jahnvi were trying to calm her & her hands were in their hold. Vansh cupped her face & said,

VANSH: Riddhu... bacha please open your eyes baby. Look around you're safe meri Jaan apne ghar ho tum apne Mumma aur Dadda ke baas.

RIDDHIMA: Mumm...Mummaa Dad....Dadda... bache... Ansh....

VANSH: Haan meri Jaan bache bhi saare paas hi hain. Shaant baby you're okay, everyone are okay too.....

She was still not able to open her eyes & her breathes were getting heavy.

VANSH: Chachu least dosage please. Woh nahi sambhaal paa rahi....

He said hiding her in his arms.

ZALA: Try to calm her Vansh. Let's wait for sometime it's okay if she faints but giving medicine is risky you know she was on....

He realised what she was going to speak & stopped. Vansh cooed her in his arms & soon she fainted in her arms. Her wig was getting slipped so he carefully without anyone knowing settled it but was seen by Neela...

NEELA: Vansh yeh...

VANSH: Mami Sa baad mein baat karenge please. Right now can we sit in balcony please, Riddhu needs rest????

All nodded & left.

ZALA: Vansh phirse kyun usse attacks aa rahe hain???

VANSH: Chachu who panick ho jaati hain jab se Mom, Dad aur Umang Mama Sa wapas aae hain but sambhal jaati hain. She's still having fear ki it's delusion & once she wakes up she will be back to square one. Shaanvi ki news ke baad woh express nahi kar pa rahi hain khud ko.

MYRA: It happened because we were talking about those events.

KIYAAN & ANGRE: Sorry Bhai....

VANSH: It's okay Kiyaan, Angre I understand because I know how you all waited for this moment. But aage se dhyan rakha karo atleast you both can understand more better ki how she is even more alert in her sleep, how her senses works.

Uma was all silent so Myra said,

MYRA: Badi Maa aap jao room mein aur so jao come on chalo....

Uma shook her head & tears rolled down her eyes.

MYRA: Aap se maine last bhi bola tha na don't take stress aap ki tabiyat bigad jaati hain phir....

UMA: Har bar gudiya hi kyun???

KIYAAN: Mom we need to be strong for her na. Aap ne aur Choti Mom ne ab tak takat dikhae hain toh ab bas thode din aur. Last time bhi aap ne stress liya tha aur we need to hospitalise you.

CHANCHAL: Bhabhi gudiya ki daant khaani hain toh tabiyat bigad lo. Jaante ho na mujhe kitna daanta tha jab mein bimar ho gae thi....

Uma nodded & Ajay said,

AJAY: Aap sab betho mein lekar jata hu Uma ko room mein.

PRITHVI: Aap koi kahi nahi jaa rahe ho. Uma ko sula kar khud study mein jaa kar smoke karoge aur phir usse iss haal mein dekh kar aap khud toot kar ro oge.

SHEKHAR: Zala Riddhi is on????

ZALA: Woh....

POOJA: Papa Sa...

SHEKHAR: Ki hoya chotu???

POOJA: Main sach baat bol dungi rab da vaasta par usse pehle humari gal sunoge???

She asked holding his hand & Shekhar nodded. She made Shekhar & Jahnvi sit infront of her & then looked at her Vansh.

POOJA: Main sab bata du???

Vansh ruffled her hairs & said,

VANSH: You've known her Pooja & do whatever your heart says. I just want her to open up few things herself & you know she'll share with no one except Mom & Dad. If they'll know everything she won't share & it'll eat her up.

Pooja shook her head & said,

POOJA: Woh aap nu sab bataegi....

VANSH: Apne dil ko jo sahi lage woh karo. I know you all never hurt her & I trust with my everything on you all.

She sat crossing her legs looking at Jahnvi & Shekhar.

POOJA: Coming to Kapoor Palace Nana Sa & Dad Ji were all broken so where Mami Sa & Mama Sa. Hum charo ko toh hosh hi nahi tha naa hi Dad ko.

While saying this she cried & Jahnvi & Shekhar immediately wiped her tears. She shook her head & wiped her tears with the back of her hand & Angre continued,

ANGRE: Di was already so terrified because she was the one who performed rituals at Shekhawat Palace.

JAHNVI: Eve...every ritu..ritual????

She asked wih fear hoping for no but Pooja & Angre nodded vigorously making her gasp.

ANGRE: Ek taraf it was time to do rituals there too & no one was in a state of mind to do it. She knew how traumatic it was & at that time to protect us from that traumatic experience she performed puja & all the rituals & then we went to Kappor Properties where you saw Shaanvi's memorial.

POOJA: There we did antim sanskar & Dad....Dadda... Mu....Mumma....

All four children hugged them & they cried.

ZALA: Uss bachi ne bado ko toh wapas bhej diya aur mujhe bhi ki unka khayal rakhne ke liye saath bhej diya soon after she did agni sanskaar. I was forced knowing she won't able to bear more loss.

SHEKHAR: Did she do kapal kriya too?

VANSH: Haan Dad...

Saying this tears rolled down his eyes.

POOJA: Dadda Mumma bahot dar lag raha tha. It was so heart wrenching. She hid us in her arms consoling us & staring at fire blankly. That time jo awaz aa rahi thi woh bahot darvani thi. Mainu aaj bhi dar lagta hain....

ARYAN: Myra too...

SIYA: Kiyaan & Angre Bhai too....

MYRA: Phir hum kab waha behosh ho gae humein nai pata. Jab jaage tab we were at place. At that day we lost our Riddhi Di. She tried to normalise everything & one day we were at school.

ZALA: We talked with higher officials & keeping this as a secret was searching for the culprits & in all these attacks were increasing day by day. Bado ki condition thik nahi thi so she even took business & palace's responsibilities on her not of one but all three. Attacks were done but she managed to handle. One day after dropping kids at school she came back to take her files at home & found Malik waiting for her. Don't know what they talked but she immediately left with him & then came back with kids during school hours.

KIYAAN: Chachu that day we were in our class & Di barged in between & took us with her. She has already packed our necessities & important documents & told us we are leaving India.

ZALA: She send me with elders & herself went with kids. Initial days were going okay but soon she informed we can't use money from any Empire. I asked ki main toh chalo kar lunga but woh kaise sambhalegi but usne koi jawab nahi diya....

SHEKHAR: Jawab nahi diya aur tu maan gaya Vivek. Kaise akela chod sakte ho tum sab bacho ko???

PRITHVI: Toh kya karte hum batae aap? Unki safety ke liye we had to separate them from us. As we had not revealed their identity to the world they were safe but our minutest details were tracked aur unki bhi Jaan ko khatra tha.

POOJA: We changed countries & at last settled in Iceland. There were times jab hum par foreign mein bhi attacks hue the.

KIYAAN: First we went to US. We stayed with Malik & not our property but still we were tracked. Once attack was done but Malik saved us & got to know that when we do any transaction in any account of our family & business they knows our location. Malik managed to take us to another country. But we were still tracked & Malik was badly injured. Di admitted him to hospital & we hid in under construction site which was closed for three days. At night we used to sneak & eat fruits plucking from trees around. After three days we went to find safe place & luckily got one. Di sold her chain & we had some cash from which we rented one room. She agreed for some work which we didn't know what it was as she strictly told us to not come out of that room. She used to bring meals for us for month & at night used to teach us.

ANGRE: After a month she managed some funds & got us one laptop so that we can study. Next month passed & she managed to get induction & started cooking for us. Soon Myra & Pooja using internet learnt cooking & used to do it to help her. One day we were sleeping & someone started banging on our door badly. Di looked from key hole & panicked. She told us to jump from window & we did it. Then she too jumped & ran & we got to know someone is behind us. Don't know where we were going but soon we saw some construction work going on & there were huge pipes. She helped us slid in those pipes & we spent two days there.

POOJA: Hum bahot dare hue the Dadda... Mumma.... She sat there hiding us in her arms. She had that habit of packing necessary items in bags & that time we came to know why. In those bags we had some eatables & water bottles in which we managed. After two days at one night we sneaked & walked a little & saw we were at port & one ship was going to Iceland. Di somehow managed & we got into that ship. After few days we reached Iceland & reaching there we found a place to stay but failed. We spent days on roads, under trees, on footpath. Then one day it started raining & from last day we had just one apple & one bun. Di pleaded a bakery owner to give her job & she agreed. Near that bakery there was a broken roof we stayed there for next 15 days & then Di managed to get a place for us to stay which was a small room. Next three months passed & one day Malik came there & asked for Di. Bhaiyu didn't allowed her to enter.

ANGRE: Later at evening Di came & she told us to trust him & we had a full dinner. Next two days they used to go at morning & used to come at night. Then we moved to Akureyri & she started her own bakery renting a shop & luckily admission were started so got us admitted to school. Pooja & Myra got admissions in one class higher due to their skills & education while we repeated the class so we all four can be in one class. Days started getting better & Di within three months got a new home for us & at down was bakery. After six months elders too came & we started leaving happily.

MYRA: Sab thik chal raha tha & one day Dada Ji's health got worst & he wanted to visit India. Malik managed home for us but reaching there his health deteriorated & he passed away due to heart attack & after a week Nana Sa too passed away. We again came back & Di started her own company & made sure we don't have to face any problem in our lives.

POOJA: Unhone khud nahi khaya aur humein khilaya. She was just like robot bas kaam aur humare saath time spent karna. In all this she never cried not for once & made us so strong, so capable, loved us, took care of us not letting us miss any of you. She became our Mumma, our Dadda, our grandparents, our family, our guide, our protector, our god. Woh sona, khana, jeena sab bhul gae thi.

PRITHVI: Not only that Shekhar, Jahnvi, she became Umang for us, so that we don't miss him, a friend to Zala, she played role of both in your parents lives too.

ZALA: Riddhi ne bacho ko Jahnvi Bhabhi ki tarah Maa bankar pala toh Shekhar tumhari tarah baap bankar unko duniyadari sikahe, sahi galat ka fark sikhaya, duniya se bachakar rakha. She forgot who she is in all this. Usne bahot kuch dekha hain par kabhi nahi bataya kis ko. She started her own company & all these four musketeers helped her.

At the end all were in tears. It was early morning & Siya came with coconut water & gave to everyone. Shekhar & Jahnvi knew this is only half knowing what Riddhima has faced is still not known to anyone knowing her nature she won't share. They promised themselves to be strong for their daughter.

SHEKHAR: Chotu Riddhu is on???

POOJA: Pehle wada karo aap daantoge nahi onu ko....

SHEKHAR: Wada...

POOJA: She takes drugs sometimes....

SHEKHAR & JAHNVI: What????

Their voice was so loud & angry that all literally shivered. Riddhima whined in sleep & Vansh went to her.

ZALA: I was forced to do this Shekhar. She had became something which none of us could understand. Uski health bigadti jaa rahi thi, she had got several anger issues, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder & much. Medicines, anaesthesia too doesn't work on her. Naa chahkar mujhe yeh karna pada to save her.

Riddhima was awake & was in very bad mood so Vansh took her to Riansh. Next morning at evening when elders returned from office they saw Shekhar, Jahnvi, Umang & Malini watching business news discussing something. There was news of Ananta Empire entering into automobile sector creating havoc. They decided to be a surprise for them. Malini was not much into business so Umang, Shekhar & Jahnvi were discussing about it to elders & they explained how this empire rules business world.

JAHNVI: Iss ke owner ke baare mein kisi ko nahi pata, it's strange na. Also here are many articles stating they are dangerous.

Soon youngsters soon joined them.

POOJA: Kaun dangerous hain Mumma???

JAHNVI: Nothing we were just discussing about Ananta Empire.

Kiyaan, Myra, Pooja & Angre looked at each other & shouted with proud & happiness,

FOUR: Riddhi Di is the founder.

SHEKHAR, JAHNVI & UMANG: What????

They looked at everyone who nodded with smile & proudness & happiness in their eyes.

SHEKHAWAT: Y..ou me...mean to sa...say hu..humari...Ri....Riddhi is the RS.

JAHNVI: She...Shekhar huma...humari Rid...Riddhi... ye...yeh....

Vansh told her with his eyes to go to them but she was in fear. Proudness & happiness was but Riddhima's face was still blank. She held Vansh's hand & Vansh could sense her restlessness which was very unexpected. Vansh cupped her face & made her look at him.

VANSH: Kya hua Riddhu hmm...????

For a moment her eyes was a whirlpool of many emotions but before anyone could decipher the next moment her eyes went blank & her face was showing nothing but coldness & dangerousness. But her man knew it's her mask to hide her vulnerability which was increasing every moment.

RIDDHIMA: Ansh humein jana hain....

He sighed & stood up holding her hand.

VANSH: Get your files & macbook & iPad. We'll leave right now okay....

She just left.

VANSH: Kiyaan, Angre office mein kuch hua hain kya???

Bob came inside & asked Vansh before both brothers could answer,

BOB: Sir Riddhima Mam kahan hain??? We need to leave otherwise we'll be late.

ANGRE: & does it make any sense Bob???

BOB: No Sir who has the guts to question Devil.

VANSH: Kiyaan, Angre handle it. She's not going today.

BOB: Sir but she is the only one who knows about the deal.

VANSH: Then postpone it or cancel it, I fucking don't care & I hope you know what to do & if it's that tough to handle tell me I'll do it.

YOUNGER CLAN: Another devil.....

Vansh glared at them & all looked down. On the otherside, Riddhima from back door went to parking & called Vansh.

RIDDHIMA: I'm in car.

VANSH: Coming Sweetheart....

Vansh keeping his hands in pocket with a dangerous look warned Bob,

VANSH: A single work related call till tomorrow evening to her & you'll face consequences & you better know what to do. Don't disturb her unless it's some serious security matter.

Saying this he left the mansion with Riddhima to Riansh.
