RM.
The Next Day.

Nani and Manohar happily welcomed Nk the clown of the family.

Due to his work as a professional photographer, he often travels a lot and they were happy to see him after over two years.

He may not be directly related to the Raizadas by blood but he was more blood to them than Mami was.

Arnav may always voice out his annoyance at him but everyone knew he loved him and was very protective of Nk just like Akash.

Mami was happy to see his nephew after a long time and so was Anjali but they were hit with a cold reality when Nk barely acknowledged them and left alone to look their way.

"Hello hi bye bye, Nk bitwa, come greet your aunt. " Mami demanded and Nk threw a cold glare her way which shocked Mami because Nk was never the cold or disrespectful type and the same went for Shyam and Anjali.

Shyam who thought he could use Nk the baby of the family to his advantage was disheartened seeing his cold attitude towards them.

Nani and Manohar realized Arnav or Akash might have filled him in on what has been happening in the family and they were happy seeing him taking their side and not Anjali and her gangs.

"Khushi bhabhi, tell me what did you see in this robot to marry him?..... You are too beautiful and kind to be with him. " Nk exclaimed in shock throwing a look of disbelief at Khushi who giggled seeing Arnav looking red.

The others burst out laughing seeing this too.

"Stop Nanheji........ He is not as robotic as everyone seems to think he is....... It is a giant teddy bear and so sensitive. " Khushi defended and Nk's jaw dropped hearing this and turned to Arnav staring up and down.

"What magic have you done on my bhabhi? " Nk accused.

"Nk it's called LOVE. " Akash replied and everyone laughed as Arnav smirked and kissed Khushi's cheek.

Khushi gasped and hit his thigh and Nk's eyes rolled back and he dropped backward pretending to be dead.

All except Mami, Anjali, Shy, and Dadi burst out laughing.

"Nk get up and stop being dramatic. " Manohar said laughing as he jerked up.

"Wow, I can't believe I missed so much....... Always angry ASR aka Nannav is married and doing PDAs........ Akash whom I thought was gay now has a girlfriend. "

"What the? " Akash exclaimed in shock as the others giggled. "Nk, what the hell made you think I am gay? "

"Excuse me if I thought you and Nannav were gay. " Now it was Arnav's turn to be shocked. "You guys are the most handsome men I have ever seen and yet not one woman has caught your attention until now....... You both are always surrounded by women but never attempted to date or have a relationship with any of them...... I never understood why so I came to the conclusion that you were both gay but now I realise I was wrong. "

Everyone understood his point of view and smiled.

"Don't you think it disrespectful not to acknowledge your cousin, brother-in-law, aunt, or me? " Dadi exclaimed in her usual arrogant tone.

Half of the room rolled their eyes and others looked annoyed as they knew she was about to ruin the mood.

"Sorry ma'am but I don't acknowledge liars, adulterers, and their accomplices. "  Dadi and Shyam fumed as Mami and Anjali looked hurt. "I know everything that has been happening in this house and I feel disgusted knowing am related to some people here. " This was directed at Mami who teared up hearing his taunt. "I only came to visit my family which excludes you and your gangs so please shit up and let me enjoy the little time I have with my family before I leave. "

"You also turned against me. " Anjali cried out and Nk rolled his eyes which pissed off Shyam and Dadi.

Nani who knew their good time would not last interrupted by suggesting.

"Nk, you are here for a short time let's make good use of it...... Why don't we all freshen up and go out for lunch...... It's Sunday and I want to make the best of it. "

Everyone loved the idea and immediately dispersed to their respective rooms to get ready leaving Dadi and her minions alone in the hall.

"I can't believe Nk was this rude to us. " Shyam said making Mami and Anjali nod.

"Well believe it because just like the others, he has been turned against you....... You both better do something fast before you are kicked out...... I have tried my best and it hasn't succeeded so am leaving tomorrow. " Dadi said nonchalantly making the trio shocked.

"Hello hi bye bye..... You are leaving? "mami asked in shock and Dadi nodded bored.

" Dadi you can't leave us now that we need you the most. " Anjali cried feeling betrayed but Dadi wasn't budging.

"Am sorry Anju but am too old for this........ Your husband and aunt will held you settle in you need life...... I am leaving tomorrow and wish you all the best in your new life. "

Dadi stood up and left the trio in shock.

She has finally been able to steal enough money and jewelry to last her a lifetime and she wasn't about to waste her time on them.

She had what she had come for and was now leaving.

"Hello hi bye bye? " Mami exclaimed in shock staring in the direction where Dadi disappeared too.

"Mami do something. " Anjali cried out shaking Mami. "We will be kicked out in a week...... Mami O don't want to leave my family...... We have to do something and get them back on our side. "

Mami stared at Anjali helplessly as she wasn't in a position to help her and it hurt her as she loved Anjali.

Shyam got frustrated and angrily stood up and walked away as Mami consoled a crying Anjali.

NK's Room.

Nk stood under the shower as the warm water massaged his muscles.

He had missed his family because he had a chance to travel and work with well known and qualified photographers in the world and he was on his way to another wildlife expedition with one of his idols.

He wanted to see his family before he left again for over a year only to be met with good, shocking and bad news.

He had arrived at RM only to be informed by HP that the family was at on official opening for the family's new cafe and will be back soon.

He was given food and his room was cleaned as he read in Arnav 's study.

He fell asleep and was awoken the the locking sound of the door.

He smiled realising his family was back and was about to jump and scare Arnav as he always does but was shocked hearing a woman confess to kidnapping her aunt.

What followed next was five minutes of a shocking confession about Arnav having a half sister.

This caused him to drop his book alerting them to his presence in the study.

He walked out from behind the library to find Arnav, Aman and two women he didn't recognize.

He was stunned when one of the women called out his name in shock together with  Aman and Arnav.

Nk immediately demanded to know the truth and was first introduced to Khushi.

Poor Nk nearly collapse hearing his Nannav was married but seeing how lovely he introduced her made him realise his favorite cousin was in love and same happened to Aman who introduced Preeto as the best friend of Khushi who was like family to them.

Then came the bad and shocking news, Arnav revealed everything that has happened to them including the revelation of Payal being the half sister of Arnav.

To say Nk was shocked will be an understatement but he felt pleased hearing Arnav didn't blame or shun Payal but has decided to accept her in silence in other to protect Shashi.

Nk felt proud to have Khushi as his sister in law and Payal as his soon to be sister in law.

But he couldn't hide the disappointment of knowing all about Anjali and her schemes together with Mami, Shyam and Dadi.

Nk was happy his mother was different from Mami.

Unlike Mami who chose to lazy around, her younger sister Suhani, NK's mother went to school and had opportunities to go to university on scholarships in Australia where she met and married NK's father and has been living there for decades now.

She had always disliked her sister and cut ties with her but never prevented Nk from having a relationship with Mami or the Raizadas whom she loved.

Nk promised to keep their secret and help them in anyway possible.

They all moved downstairs and everyone was thrilled seeing him back although they were disappointed he will be leaving soon, they still wanted to make the best of his short time in RM.

The next day, he woke up to a huge breakfast made by Khushi, Payal, Preeto and Nani to welcome him and he was thrilled to have met the new additions to the family but ignored his aunt, Anjali and the others completely.

"God please get those horrible people out of Nannav and Aki's life soon. " Nk prayed as he moved out of his room.

He found the others ready and Anjali together with Mami and Shyam wanted to join but Nk denied them joining and left with the other turning deaf ears to Mami and Anjali's plead.

Meanwhile in Laxmi Nagar, Buaji was crying as the neighbors consoled her.

She woke up to find the house ransacked and the little money she had stolen and a note frim Garima saying she was leaving forever.

"Such an ungrateful sister in law that Garima is....... Look at how you lost your brother and nieces by defending her and she stole all your money and jewelry and run off. " Nirmala one of the neighbors exclaimed angrily.

"Madhu, you have to contact Shashi and your nieces...... It's not too late to ask for forgiveness and get your family back, " Another suggested but Buaji shook her head crying.

"I don't deserve them and Shashi had threatened to kick me out if I ever contact them...... I have no where and no one and I deserve it. " Buaji cried out as  the neighbors consoled her.

Happy Singh smirked enjoying the suffering of Buaji as she had caused a lot of pain to his  best friend and nieces.

He decided against calling Shashi when he was bombarded by the neighbors to do so and threatened to call the police on them if they bothered him again.

This seems to work as they all stopped hounding him to call Shashi or the girls.

RM.
Evening.

The whole family excluding Mami and her gangs sat in the dinning room filled with laughter and teasing.

Anjali sulked seeing them enjoying themselves and not inviting them.

Shyam was getting frustrated each passing day and after the revelation of Dadi wanting to leave, get decided to steal some jewelry from Dadi, Akash and Arshi to sell and also sell the house in other to leave forever as Anjali was no longer useful to him.

Mami looked pissed as all her effort to get close to Payal had failed and she knew he days in RM was numbered as Nani has revealed she will be leaving the Jhas to help Anjali.

She tried to protest but Manohar threatened to send her packing to her family in the village and this shut her up.

Immediately the family were done, the door bell rang and Arnav turned to the family.

"Am sorry Nani but this had to be done. "

Nani stared at Arnav confused and so did the others except Khushi, Aman and Preeto.

He asked them to come with him to the hall and the others were surprised seeing them there.

Police entered the house confusing everyone and they walked up to Arnav and greeted him.

"Good evening Mr Raizada...... We got your footage and we are ready to arrest the culprit. "

Everyone looked confused but Anjali, Shyam and Dadi started panicking especially seeing Arnav nod at them.

"Arnav, what's going on? " Manohar asked confused.

"We have a thief among us and the police is here to arrest the culprit. " Arnav explained staring at the trip that is Anjali, Shyam and Dadi.

They all gulped seeing everyone's gaze on them.

"Mrs Malik, you are under arrest for theft. "

Dadi stumbled backwards and fell into the couch.

"Arnav what nonsense is this...... Are you standing there as the humiliate me. " Dadi yelled crying to intimidate the police but they were firm on their decision as the cuffed Dadi and two of them were led to Dadi's room. .

"You think I won't find out about you still not only my jewelry but Khushi's as well. " gasped filled the room and Dadi looked petrified. "There is a camera in my room which has been recording you stealing clothes, jewelry and money from my room and dare you deny it. "

The police came back with a bag and emptied it on the centre and all had everything Dadi stole and some belonged to Akash, Manohar and Nani.

Nani marched up to Dadi and slapped her.

"Shame on you Subi. " Nani then turned to the police and odered. "Make sure she never get bail and is charged with the maximum sentence. "

They nodded and dragged a screaming Dadi away as Nani turned to the family.

"All of you get to your room and make sure all your precious jewelry arrest intact........ Tomorrow I will call a jewelry appraiser to check of all our jewelry are real...... That their have been here for weeks and for all I know she could have made fake ones to replace the real ones. "

The all nodded but Arnav and Khushi together with Aman and Preeto smirked knowing this is their opportunity to get rid of Anjali as they would have to explain why all her jewelry is now fake.

"Get ready Mr and Mrs Jha, you end is near...... And as for Mami, I have a special surprise for you. " Arnav thought staring at them.

To be continued.

Precap: Akash frames Mami.
