In the morning, Mahir got ready for his office when bela came to him. He looks at her.

Mahir : "kya hua bela?"

Bela : "Mahir ji breakfast is ready."

Mahir : "ok, I'm coming in 2 minutes."

Mahir : "what happened bela? tum college nahi ja rahi kya aaj se?"

Bela : "woh actually, kal se jaungi main college mahir ji. aaj mann nahi kiya mera jane ka."

Mahir : "thike, kal se chali jana."

Bela : "Mahir ji woh kal raat ko aap riya ke ghar gaye the toh riya i mean kuch hua toh nahi tha na mera matlab hai ki riya thik thi na?"

Mahir : "haan riya thik thi, woh actually usne mera phone isliye nahi uthaya tha kyuki woh kuch kaam kar rahi thi."

Bela : "ohk, par mahir ji apko kal aane mein itni der kyu ho gayi thi?"

Mahir : "bela woh aise hi, abhi mujhe late ho raha hai office ke liye, meri bohot important meeting hai, so main breakfast karne ja raha hu niche."

mahir went downstairs to have his breakfast along with bela.

Andy : "Mahir beta kal tum riya ke ghar chale gaye the raat mein achanak se kyu, riya thik nahi hai kya?"

Mahir : "dad, woh aise hi chala gaya tha mein, riya mera phone nahi utha rahi thi, isliye mujhe chinta ho gayi thi."

Sumi : "aage se dhyaan rakhna, apna ghar chhodkar itni raat ko koi kisi ke ghar jata hai kya."

Mahir and andy went to their office. Sumi and bela got engrossed in their chores.

AT THE OFFICE....

Mahir was thinking about riya deeply. Riya came to the office and immediately approached his cabin. Mahir was unaware of riya's presence.

Riya : "Mahir"

NO RESPONSE FROM MAHIR.

Riya : "Mahir"

AGAIN, NO RESPONSE CAME FROM MAHIR.

This time, riya shooked mahir's shoulders and he came back into his world.

Mahir : "arey riya tum kab aayi?"

Riya : "abhi abhi aayi thi, par lagta hai tum bela ke khyaal mein itna khoye hue ho ki tumhe meri presence bhi mehsus nahi hui, u r changed mahir."

Mahir : "no sweetheart, its not like that, main bela ke bare mein nahi soch raha tha, main toh tumhare bare mein soch raha tha, or tum kyu  baar - baar aise kehti rehti ho mujhse, main sirf tumse pyaar karta hu riya, sirf tumse. Tum mere liye sab kuch ho, maine tumhe kal bhi bataya tha na toh phir kyu nahi samajh pa rahi ho?"

Riya : "kya samjhu mahir main? tum kal bela ke saath uske ghar par gaye the or tumne mujhe bataya bhi nahi, maine tumhe kitne phones lagaye the par tum apni biwi bela ke saath itne busy the ki tumhe mera khyaal tak nahi aaya."

Mahir : "riya, sweetheart listen, mujhe nahi pata tha ki tumne mujhe phone lagaya hai, bela ne toh mujhse kaha bhi tha ki phone aa raha hai kisi ka, utha lijiye, par maine hi mana kar diya usko ki ghar pahunch kar dekhta hu. mera vishwas karo riya, main bela ke sath uske ghar sirf pagphere ki rasm ke liye gaya tha, or bhale hi hum real mein husband-wife nahi hai par duniya ke liye toh hum sach mein husband-wife hain. bela mere parivar ke liye kitna kuch kar rahi hai, aise mein mujhe bhi uske parivar ke liye kuch karna chahiye. main bela ko apni biwi nahi manta hu riya."

Riya : "toh phir kyu le gaye the usey ice cream khilane ? tum usey patni nahi mante na apni toh phir kis haq se le gaye usey ice cream khilane? or toh or khud bhi kha rahe the uskey saath icecream, sidhe ghar jana chahiye the na tumhe usey leke."

Mahir : "kyuki bela ka mann kar raha tha icecream khane ka riya, isliye main usey le gaya, or woh zidd kar rahi thi isliye maine bhi kha li toh kya ho gaya usmein yr?"

Riya : "acha agar kal ko woh zidd karegi ki tum mujhe chhodkar usey apni biwi maan lo, uske saath aage badh jao, toh tum woh bhi kar doge? woh kahegi ki chaand tare tod lao mere liye toh woh bhi tod laoge uske liye? tum mein khud ka dimaage nahi hai kya? woh tumhe itni achi lagne lagi hai ki tum uski baat man jate ho? jab maine kaha tha ek din icecream khane ko mere saath tab toh tumne haal mana kar diya tha, maine bhi zidd ki thi par tumne saaf mana kar diya, lekin uski zidd haal puri kar di tumne, waah."

Mahir : "riya, tum itna overreact kyu kar rhi ho yr? tumhare sath mein hamesha ice cream khata hu, bass ek baar nahi khayi kyuki uss time par mujhe cold tha, or koi cold mein kaise ice cream kha sakta hai, bimar pad jata main or bhi jyada cold ho jata mujhe. or rahi baat bela ki baat manne ki toh maine uski koi bhi baat nahi mani hai sirf icecream khilayi thi maine use, or woh bhi bela ne nahi kaha tha mujhse ki usey icecream khani balki maine hi notice kar liya tha usey, isliye le gaya tha main usey. or ismein kuch galat nahi kiya maine."

Riya : "wow mahir, ab tum bela ko notice bhi karne lage, uski mann ki baat bhi samajhne lage. mujhe toh kabhi nahi samjha tumne aise, mujhe kabhi notice nahi kiya."

Mahir : "riya please tum baat ko or kyu badha rahi ho? tum chhoti si baat ko itna bada mat banao pls."

Riya : "saaf keh do na ki mann bhar gaya hai tumhara mujhse, isliye ab nahi rehna chahte mere sath. keh do na ki ab achi nahi lagti main tumko, balki woh bela achi lagti hai, cheen liya hai uss bela ne tumhe mujhse, badal gaye ho tum uske tumhari zindgi mein aane se. Main ja rahi hu ab nahi karungi tumhe pareshan."

before, riya could go from there, mahir immediately holds her wrist and hugged her tightly.

Riya : "leave me mahir, jane do mujhe, tang aa gaye ho na tum mujhse."

Mahir : "shhhh!! aisi baat mat karo pls riya, i love you yr, or mera mann tumse kabhi nahi bharega, never ever. or main kuch tang nahi aaya tumse. jis insaan se hum pyaar karte hain kya usse kabhi mann bhar skta hai humara, kya kabhi tang aa skte hain hum uss insaan se? nahi sweetheart never ever. i love u a lot. aise phir kabhi mat kehna, i know u r hurt isliye yeh sab keh rahi ho, par trust me i didn't knew that you will feel so bad when i will go with bela."

Riya : "jhoot mat bolo, tumhare liye bela sab kuch hai main kuch nahi hu."

Mahir : "no riya, BELA MERE LIYE KUCH BHI NAHI HAI, KUCH BHI NAHI, tum mere liye sab kuch ho, meri puri duniya ho tum mere liye, bass 6 mahine ki baat hai uske baad main tumhara hunga i promise."

Riya : "pkka na?"

Mahir : "ha pkka."

riya tightly hugged mahir. mahir smiled. mahir kissed riya's forehead.

Riya : "chalo, ab lunch kar lo, main tumhare liye lunch lekar aayi hu, thanda ho jayega."

Mahir : "hmm..jaldi se de do, bohot bhuk lagi hui hai."

riya and mahir ate the lunch together happily laughing.

THIS WAS ALL SEEN AND HEARD BY BELA, WHO CAME TO GIVE LUNCH TO MAHIR. SHE WAS BROKEN LISTENING HIS WORDS "BELA MERE LIYE KUCH NAHI HAI, KUCH BHI NAHI." hot tears rolled down her eyes continuously seeing him with her. her heart got clenched seeing them eating together and mahir laughing with her and making her eat the lunch with his hands lovingly. her heart got shattered into pieces seeing love for riya in his eyes. She looked at the tiffin box she brought for him so lovingly, and here he is having lunch with some other girl, oops, not some other, but his love, his life, RIYA. she was about to collapse but saved herself. She went from there.

she was walking on the  road crying remembering everything happened just now.

BELA'S POV..........

"Main apke liye bohot pyaar se, apne haathon se lunch banakar layi thi, socha tha ki apke saath hi khaungi aaj lunch par kismat ko yeh manjur nahi tha. Main kyu ummeed rakhne lagi apse ki ek din aap mujhse bohot pyaar karenge, mujhe apni biwi manenge pure dil se, humare rishte ko aage badhayenge, kyu kyu kyu yeh ummeed rakh li maine apse, yeh janne ke bawajud ki meri inn ummeedon ka koi matlab nahi hai, koi mol nai hai, main janti hu ki aap riya se bohot pyaar karte hain uske bawajud bhi maine apse expectations rakh li, main apke or riya ke bich mein aa gayi hu mahir ji, apke or riya ke beech aakar maine sabsi badi galti kar di. Main roz khud ko yeh assurance dilati hu, yaad dilati hu khud ko ki mahir ji se ummeed nahi karna hai, par phir bhi apse ummeed kar leti hu, har din mujhe apse pyaar hota ja raha hai mahir ji. main khud ko bohot rokti hu apse pyaar na karne ke liye par mera dil humesha mere dimaag ko hara deta hai. humesha havi ho jata hai mera dil mujh par, main kya karun...par ab bass...main apke liye kuch nahi hu na....toh ab bss, ab main bhi apse 6 mahine baad alag hone ke liye taiyyar hun....mushkil hai mere liye par apki khushi mein hi meri khushi hai mahir ji...apki khushi ke liye main kuch bhi kar sakti hu...isliye ab na hi main apse koi ummeed rakhungi or na hi apke kareeb aaungi. apse dur rehne ki aadat abhi se daal lungi main."

BELA'S POV ENDS....

She went back to the house.

AT NIGHT....

Door bell rings, bela goes to open the door, it was yuvi.

Yuvi : "hii bhabhi"

Bela : "hi yuvi bhaiya, aap kitna thak gaye hain, aaiye andar chaliye, main apko cold drink de deti hu."

Yuvi : "ha bhabhi de do pls...bohot pyaas bhi lagi hui hai.."

Bela : "ha ha abhi layi."

bela brought cold drink for yuvi. he sighed in a relief drinking that.

Yuvi : "thank you so much bhabhi ab bohot sukoon mil raha hai mujhe."

bela smiles.

Sumi : "bela, Mahir or andy aa gaye kya?"

Bela : "nahi maa abhi nahi aaye, aate hi honge."

Yuvi : "yeh mahir bhai jab dekho tab late hi aate rehte hain, or dad bhi unke saath rehkar late latif ban gaye hain."

Mahir : "acha bachu, maine dad ko bigaad diya."

bela turned and looked at mahir. mahir smiled at her but she didn't. 

Yuvi : "nahi bhai maine kab kaha ki aapne dad ko bigaad diya....maine toh kuch bhi nahi kaha."

Andy : "kya keh rhaa tha tu ki main late latif ban gaya hu, ruk ja bhi batata hu tujhe."

Yuvi : "arey dad, maine kab kaha aisa. main toh yaha shanti se baitha tha, haina bhabhi?"

Mahir : "chal chal rehne de, sab pata hai mujhe or dad ko ki tu kya keh raha tha or kya nahi, tujhe toh main baad mein dekhta hu. bela bohot bhuk lagi hai jaldi se khana laga do tab tak main haath munh dhokar aata hun."

bela nods but didn't looked at him. mahir noticed her behaviour.

after sometime, all sits to have dinner. bela was serving everyone one by one, first she served to andy, then sumi, then yuvi and then she starts serving mahir. mahir looks at her but she didn't. mahir was about to say something but then stopped himself. All the time when everybody was eating. mahir was looking at bela but she was lost somewhere else. 

Sumi : "arey bela, kaha khoyi hui ho beta? khao toh sahi, kha kyu nahi rahi ho khana? kuch hua hai kya beta?"

mahir waited for her to reply.

Bela : "nahi maa, kuch nahi hua hai woh toh bass kal se college jana hai na toh usi ke bare mein soch rahi thi."

Sumi : "kuch mat socho beta, acha hi hoga sab, bilkul nervous mat ho."

Andy : "exactly bela, ekdum khush raho, bilkul tension mat lo. or ache se khana khao."

Yuvi : "ha bhabhi aap toh waise bhi bohot achi ho toh bilkul bhi chinta mat karo."

Bela smiled fakely and nodded. but she not thinking about her college, instead was thinking about today's afternoon incident, about mahir and riya. she was not feeling to eat but sumi made her feed with her hands. bela got emotional and hugged her. mahir noticed something was wrong with her, she's looking different today. 

Precap : "bela and riya's face off. Bela at college."
