After the saree drama, Sai broke down to the point that she cursed her own existence. Her tears were tagged merely as an acting stunt. She falls on the ground cries her heart out with something heavy stuck in her heart, a terrible blow. Her eyes widened. She froze. Some kind of coldness crawled within her. Her muscles could not move. Her heart seemed to alternately stop beating and pump furiously, brain went numb. She lost control over herself, and the echo of their taunts beat against her eardrums.

"Do you even know how does it feel when you give fire to your father with your own hands. See him burning in front of your own eyes? The doctors said they will hand over the body to the me.Yes, body. That's what they said. He no longer had a name. He was just a body. A dead body. I wished that his soul may rest in peace, my own soul was restless within. I don't even get the time to dry my tears, and I was forced to get married to a man who was already committed. I know you can't understand the pain I went through, no one can!! If you can't Empathise, at least for the sake of humanity you can keep your special comments to yourselves" she dragged her body got up, her legs still shaking up. She felt like her body got numb. Entire scene played in front of her eyes yet again,her Aaba getting shot, taking his last breaths in front of her. She was compelled to feel all that pain again.

"Orphan? You people always call me this! Kaku, Baba! That's right too since the day I entered this house not even a single day passed when you haven't made me realise that I am an orphan. Yes, My parents died and I survived and Because I survived, I feel like I die every day in this house " she said in her trembling voice.

"And Baba aap!! being an army personal if you can't give respect to a martyr at least don't disrespect them. You cannot give respect to him as my father fine atleast you can be little grateful to the man who died saving your son! It's because of my Aaba's sacrifice that your son is still with you! I'm not counting favours just reminding you!!!" she moved to him, took a deep breath, wiped her tears, summoned all her courage and feircely questioned them.

Virat's mission got cancelled so he returned the house with Ruby pendant for his dear wife. He wished to see happiness Sai's face by her early arrival.

But by listening to her words he was still in a state of shock. The truth was so hard to accept. He could imagine what was happening at her place ... He heard those cries of pain around her. He saw her pain inflicting in her eyes. He saw her being swathed in pain. Something within him was going numb, realizing that he could not be there with her, he was unaware of all mental trauma she was going through.

A dead silence persisted in the house. Unlike him, his Aai was crying with her, Mohit eyes was filed with tears with a feeling of helplessness that a girl whom he once called her younger sister was facing all this all alone since long. Without complaining to anyone her wall of patience is broken like this today.

"Sai tum!!!!" Pakhi opened her mouth yet gain to give her special comments

"Shut up!!! just shut up" Virat screamed "Not even a word" he warned. He went to Sai who was yet again standing like a wariorness with the strength of tigress in her eyes. He tightly hugged him with tears of guilt in his eyes and fire in his soul to take vengeance for whatever his 'Angry young women' went through.

"I'm telling.... No warning you all... starting today. . . . if any one of you tried or even think of misbehaving with her or even indirectly taunting her (he looked at Sonali and Karishma) that person will be out of the house"

"Virat you will throw us out of our house just for this Jungli biwi?" Kaku shockingly asked

"The one you are refering to as Jungli is 'My legally wedded wife'" He angrily looked at her.

"Even I'm responsible for all this. It's because of my silence that gave right to you all to behave like this with her..... Because I have been tolerating it and letting her do the same!"

"Virat tum!!" The unwanted person again opened her mouth for being insulted yet again

"Don't!!!! Let me remind you for the 50th time you are my elder brother's wife .... no wait! let me say it in clear words for you..... you are my sister in law so it would be better if you keep your opinions and unwanted suggestions in your head! and don't start your 'bezzati' rant every now and then!! he took a pause "If you can't like MY WIFE then please STAY AWAY FROM HER" He angrily said stressing on my wife" he warned

" and yes that person won't be just thrown out of the house he/she will be put inside the bars too" He strictly added by looking at everyone

"You will put us in the jail??? in what charges??" Omi asked in his usual tine

"In the charge of harrassing a 19 year old girl" He said with his anger filed eyes

"And I will sign as a primary witness" Mohit added

"I still have an immence respect for all of you in my heart. But if you keep repeating all this I don't this it will last" he said

"If you have that much problem with us. Why don't you leave the house with your wife" Baba said

"Ha bilkul" Omi supported

"Why would I? Fit this thing in your minds this is my house too and I won't leave it... neither will Sai, those who have problems can happily leave neither me or anyone will stop them from doing so" he declared, With this he went on to hold Sai's hand to leave

"One last thing! I know my Sai is strong enough to handle and deal with anything alone still if anyone tried to mis behave with her physically or VERBALLY in my absence then be ready to face the consequences as well, take it as a warning from my side" He said almost in a threatning way and walked ahead, Leaving everyone stunned in shock. Sai kept staring at him with turmoil of emotions in her heart till they entered their room.
