“When will you tell her Twini?” Sapna asked impatiently.

Both Sapna and Sanskar are in kitchen. By now all of them could easily figure out that Ragini also had feelings towards Sanskar.

“Why are you in a hurry Twini? It should be me who should be in hurry!” He says eating carrot.

“You are not hurrying that’s why I am in hurry. And don’t tell me you forgot the promise of telling your feelings to her as soon as you find her feelings towards you. Now it’s clearly clear that she likes you too then why are you not telling her.” Sapna says irritated.

“Twini yaar what if we all are mistaken. I don’t want Ragini to feel awkward. I promise I will tell her about my love when I feel that it is the correct time to tell her.” Sanskar says and he casually turns to the entrance of the kitchen when he found Ragini hiding behind the wall.

He saw her wiping her tears and moving away. He could easily figure out that she heard them. He quickly moved out of kitchen ignoring what Sapna is speaking and moves towards her room. She is sitting in her room looking down but tears are flowing from her eyes. He felt to go to her and hug her. He wanted to ask her why is she crying. But he stopped himself.

He moved into the kitchen again.

“I will see this. You go and stay near Ragini!” he literally pushed Sapna out of the kitchen.

Sapna looked confused but went to Ragini’s room. She saw Ragini thinking deeply.

“Ragu is everything alright?” Sapna asked as she figured out that she cried.

Ragini nodded. Sapna understood she is hiding something and hugged her. Ragini’s eyes turned teary again but she immediately wiped them off. In kitchen Sanskar is working controlling himself. He doesn’t know why is he feeling restless. Ragini’s getting to know about his feelings in an unexpected way and her teary eyes are really effecting him. He takes deep breathe and continues his work.

He gave medicines to her after their dinner. She hasn’t given atleast a glance to him since that time. She was unusually silent during the whole dinner. He was about to help her to lay down but she shows her hand stopping him. He ignored her and helped her to lay down. Then covered her with comforter.

“When you don’t know that I Love You then only I was taking care of you… after you get know I am not going to stop. I will take care of you no matter what. And that too till my last breathe!” he says looking at her.

Her eyes turned teary and she looked away. He sighed and moved towards his bed. Ragini slowly turned towards him and saw him staring her. She immediately turns away and closes her eyes wiping off her tears.

RagSan are going in car and they are very silent but Sanskar made sure he took glances of her while Ragini is looking out of the car. She could feel his gazes but made sure that she doesn’t turn towards him. They reached her house as she wanted to meet Rivan.

It’s seventh month now. It’s been ten days since she got to know about his love for her. She has successfully made sure to avoid him as much as she could. While he didn’t do any effort to even talk to her. The tears he saw in her eyes on that day made him so weak that he decided to stay away from her and he also thought may be his avoidance would make her speak. But everything is going in an opposite direction. She has been thinking mostly about that day and has been stressing a lot. This effected her health a little. She has been getting weak mentally due to the stress. Doctor has asked her to try to be as happy as she could which would not effect either her health or the baby’s health. She has been trying her best and Sapna is being with her almost every minute not leaving her as Sanskar has strictly warned her. Today is the day after that day he has come face to face to her. He has to come in front of her as she wants to meet her brother. She wants to speak to her brother because now only he can help her.

Ragini is sitting silently waiting for Sanskar to leave as Sanskar and Rivan are talking since fifteen minutes. Sanskar was about to leave asking Rivan to take care when the door bell rings. Sanskar moves towards the door and opens the door to see a man of above 40 years old.

“Yes!” Sanskar said seeing the man.

“Who are you?” he asked frowning at Sanskar.

“WHO ARE YOU?” Sanskar asked stressing and frowning.

Ragini and Rivan looked at the person shocked while Ragini is almost shivering. Rivan looked at her immediately and took her into his embrace while she is shivering.

“I am the owner of this house and also my to be wife Ragini is inside waiting for me.” The man says irritated of Sanskar’s attitude.

Sanskar stiffened hearing him.

“You are nothing to my sister!” Shouted Rivan and about to move towards the door angrily but Ragini doesn’t leave him in fear.

Sanskar looks at Rivan and then the man who tried to enter inside but Sanskar stops.

“Who are you to stop me?” asks the man angrily.

“I am her HUSBAND!” Sanskar whispered looking dangerously at him and also stressing the word ‘Husband’.

Yet both Ragini and Rivan could hear him. Both of them looked shocked hearing him. The man fumed and entered inside pushing Sanskar who lost balance but managed to get balanced again.

“How dare you?” The man is about to pull Ragini towards him but stopped seeing her baby bump.

He fumed more.

“You cheater! I am going to sue you!” He threatened her.

Ragini got more scared hearing him. Sanskar could figure it out. He moves towards him and pulls the man away and pushes him angrily.

“Don’t you dare go near my wife or my child!” Sanskar said angrily looking at him with red angry eyes.

The man was about to hit Sanskar but Sanskar hits his nose making his nose bleed. The man feels that the world is rotating for few seconds due to the hit. Sanskar moves back glaring the man.

“Rivan what is this?” Asked Sanskar still glaring the man.

“Actually few years ago…” Rivan was about to continue but Sanskar interrupted him.

“In short!” Sanskar states still glaring the man who is trying to compose himself.

“Papa took loan from him. He forged the note and contract made by papa. Papa had mortgaged this house but this man forged the document by adding that papa has promised to marry him to di.” Rivan said.

The man is about to get up but Sanskar acted fast and hits him again on his nose like before and he fell down again like before.

“Continue!” Sanskar says still glaring the man.

“He murdered papa when papa questioned him.” Rivan choked and Sanskar could hear Ragini’s sobs getting louder.

Sanskar curled his fists tight controlling his anger.

“He was sent to jail but don’t know how he came back!” Rivan says.

Sanskar moves towards him and holds him with his collar.

“You want to go back?” Sanskar asks angrily.

The man feeling weak shakes his head slowly as no.

“Then stay away from her, from her brother and from this house.” Sanskar warns.

“Give back my money I will go away!” the man said smirking.

Sanskar closed his eyes controlling his anger.

“How much?” Sanskar asks opening his eyes.

The man just smirks.

“Rivan how much was the loan?” Sanskar asks still glaring the man.

“Five lakhs!” Rivan says.

Ragini has calmed down but she is still holding Rivan’s hand tight. She is still shivering but she isn’t sobbing anymore. She is just staring at Sanskar.

“You will get your money in half an hour. All I want from you is you have to stay away from her, stay away from her brother, stay away from this house and lastly you will give back the documents both original and the forged once immediately the next second you receive your money!” Sanskar says in dangerous voice.

“What about the interest?” the man asks weakly.

Sanskar holds his collar even tighter.

“How much?” Sanskar asks.

“How much will you give?” the man asks smirking.

“Ten lakhs!” Sanskar says.

The man still keeps smirking.

“Twenty Lakhs!” Sanskar says with his dangerous voice.

The man continues smirking. Sanskar is not at all liking his smirking face.

“Fifty lakhs!” he says and the man nods.

“Half an hour. In half an hour I need those papers.” Says Sanskar leaving him.

Sanskar moved little back and took his phone. He called someone and moved to a corner keeping his eye on the man. He came back after speaking to the call and kept glaring at the man. The man is hissing and looking around when Sanskar observed him giving looks to Ragini. He moved and stood in front of her in such a way that he can’t get atleast a glance of her.

The man smirked and took a cigarette packet from his pocket and about to light it when Sanskar sprinted towards him. He snatched the packet and threw it out of the house.

“Go out and do whatever you want to. I won’t let you smoke here.” Sanskar said angrily.

The man walked weakly giving a look to Sanskar. Sanskar looked at him curling his fist. He looked at Ragini who is now looking down. He moved towards the water glass there on the table and gave it to Rivan. He signed Rivan to make her drink water for which he nodded and made her drink.

****

After sometime Sapna, Aakash and a lawyer reached there. Sanskar signed Sapna and she immediately moved towards Ragini. She hugged her while Ragini hugged her back tight.

The man also came back with the documents.

“First documents!” Sanskar said.

The man gave him the documents without any further drama. Sanskar himself scrutinized them. He moved close to that man, kept his hand in the man's pocket and took the lighter. He burnt those papers till they become ashes. The man looked confused. Sanskar then forwarded his hand to a lawyer who passed some papers.

“Sign these! These documents state that you won’t come near her, her brother or this house again!” Sanskar says.

The man looks at the papers. He reads them and then signs them. Sanskar then forwards him the cheque.

“Your cheque!” Sanskar says smirking.

The man takes it and looks at the cheque in greed.

“One more minute!” Sanskar says.

Sanskar looks at Aakash and he nods. Aakash goes out and comes back with police. The man panics and was about to run but Sanskar holds him. He takes the cheque from his hand and pushes him towards the police.

“I will not leave you!” the man shouts.

Sanskar tears the cheque in front of him and throws on his face.

“You can hold me when you return from the jail. And I will make sure you don’t escape from the jail this time.” Sanskar says dangerously going near to him.

The man this time shows the fear on his face as he has seen a different Sanskar now. He wasn’t the one who had beaten him up. He looked dangerous. Police take him away.

“I will see off the lawyer.” Saying Aakash moves out.

Sanskar gives a looks to Ragini and goes out of the house. He is walking out of the house when he heard Rivan.

“Jiju!” he heard Rivan calling him.

Sanskar stopped suddenly and smiled hearing him calling him jiju but not bhai. Rivan immediately hugged him tight.

“Thank You!” He whispered hugging him. 

Sanskar just hugged him back caressing his hair. Rivan broke the hug.

“You won’t speak to her?” Rivan asked.

“She won’t speak to me!” Sanskar says.

Rivan looks at him frowning.

“You told her that you love her, didn’t you?” Rivan asks.

“She heard when I was talking to Sapna!” Sanskar says sighing.

“Would you like to be my jiju?” Rivan asks forwarding his hand.

“Eh?” Sanskar asks confused.

“I am proposing you instead of my sister.” Rivan says smiling sheepishly.

Sanskar chuckles and nods holding his hand.

“And ‘MissionRaginiExpressingHerFeelings’ starts!” Rivan says.

Sanskar shakes his head in disbelief and hits Rivan’s head lightly.

“I will not leave until she accepts. I promise.” Rivan says smiling.

“Not now Rivan. She needs rest. Her health isn’t good. Let’s not initiate any talks regarding this till her delivery. I can’t just risk their lives. Let her be like the way she is. Only thing I can ask is if you don’t have any problem come stay with us these three months.” Sanskar says.

Rivan sighs.

“Only if you will not stop me to work.” Rivan says.

Sanskar nods. Rivan nods at him hugging him again.
