Days passed by. Bonding between Lucky, Ragu & Sanky increased. They used to spend the whole day together chatting, laughing & doing masti.

Ragu's love for her Lucky increased day by day.. but for Laksh Ragini is just his friend..nothing more than that. Sanskar is very happy to see Ragini laughing whole heartedly after so many years. Everyone are so happy to see Ragu and Lucky together. They thought that its time to convert their friendship into a relation.

After one week~

DP has organised a party at his mansion as he wants to make the announcement of his son's marriage with Ragini. Both Laksh & Ragini were unaware of it becoz the elders thought to give them a surprise.
Everyone was enjoying the party. Laksh, Ragini & Sanskar were standing together laughing & talking.

DP looked at them & smiled.

DP : "Ladies & gentleman. Attention please."

Everyone looked at the stage. DP signalled Laksh to come on the stage.

DP : "This is my son Laksh.. and today I am handovering all the responsibilities of the business to him."

Everyone clapped hearing this.

DP : "Wait wait.. greater announcement than this is yet to be made now."

Saying this he signalled Ragini to come on stage. Both RagLak looked on confused.

DP : "I have fixed my son's marriage with his childhood bestfriend Ragini."

Everyone became happy hearing this and the most happiest of all is Ragini. She is shocked as well as happy that finally she is going to marry her love.

Amoung everyone there is one person who is hell shocked to hear this and that is none other than Laksh.

Laksh (shocked) : "What are you saying dad? I can't marry Ragini."

There is pin dron silence in the hall after his statement. The happiness from everyone's face vanished in a second.

DP : "What are you saying Laksh? You and Ragini like each other a lot. I have seen this."

Laksh : "Yes dad.. I like Ragini a lot.. but just as a friend.. more than that there is no other feelings for her in my heart."

Ragini is just staring at him blankly with moist eyes.

AP : "But Laksh..."

Laksh : "Maa plz.. I dont want to marry Ragini bcoz I don't love her."

Janki & Sanskar stares at Ragini who is silently listening to him with blank expression.

DP : "Ragini has waited for you since childhood Laksh.. she loves you a lot.. hold her hand Laksh.. what is there in love.. it can happen after marriage also."

Laksh being frustrated shouts : "I can never love Ragini.. becoz..."

Saying this he stopped.

Laksh (in mind) : "No I can't tell them anything about Swara now.. otherwise they will never accept our relation."

DP : "Bcoz what Laksh?"

Laksh : "Bcoz my choice is very different.. I have been brought up in London.. I like modern and bold girls.. not a shy and traditional girl like Ragini.. she is not my type dad.. Ragini is just my good friend nothing more than that."

Saying this he looked at Ragini & find her staring him with tears rolling down her cheeks.

Unknowingly his heart pinched seeing her crying.

Laksh : "I am sorry Ragini.. i didn't want to hurt you.. but..."

Ragini composing herself & with fake smile : "No Lucky.. why are you saying sorry? You just said what the truth is.. I love you but that doesn't mean you will also have to love me back.. the mistake is mine.. I shouldn't have kept so much expectations."

Laksh (teary eyes) : "Ragini...."

Ragini blinks her eyes assuring him that she is fine.

She asked DP not to force Laksh for this marriage.

Saying this she walked away from there controlling her emotions. While Laksh & Sanskar stared her with moist eyes.

(Tere liye hum hai jiye
Hooton ko siye
Tere liye hum hai jiye
Har ansoon piye
Dil main magar jalte rahe
Chahat ke diye
Tere liye tere liye...)
