Hi ? guys. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE COMMENTS & SUPPORT.
@PART 21…
@HALL
The Oberoi’s with Ragini are seated in the living area.
Ragini: Shivu…
Shivaay: Shivaay Singh Oberoi, Mr. Oberoi for you.
Ragini: Shivaay please don’t behave like this with me. I know I did a mistake but I am apologising for it please forgive me. Don’t behave like an outsider with me. Please Shivaay.
Shivaay: That’s your problem Ragini, you are apologising to me not to your kids. You have hurt them and as far as I am concerned I am least bothered about you and your activities and I am tolerating you in this house only because of my mom.
Pinky: O my Mata Shivaay stop it. Ragini hasn’t committed any crime that you are talking to her like this after all she is your friend. She was with you when this Anika left you.
Shivaay: I didn’t ask her to enter my life, so please mom.
Before he could say further two pairs of hands hold his legs, he gets shocked but then looks down only to find Anya and Krish hugging him. The angry frown from his face turns to a beautiful smile seeing the two. On other hand Sukanya and Amanat throw their bags on sofa and themselves bounce on sofa and rest their heads in Om’s lap who smilingly cares their hair while the duo close their eyes. While Advik sits besides Rudra leaning over him talking about his day with him.
Manik: Mom a glass of water please.
Atharv: STS.
And both bounce on the sofa lazily Manik places his head on Abeer’s shoulder and Atharv sits almost hugging Gauri. While Meher and Bhavya get water for them.
Shivaay: What happened cuties?
He asks both Anya and Krish bending down to their level.
Anya: Bada papa when did you return?
Shivaay: 10 minutes back.
Anya nods.
Krish: Baba I want you to meet someone?
Shivaay: Whom?
Krish points at the door where dadi, Aryan and Aditi were standing with dadi.
Everybody gets shocked seeing Aryan but before they could say anything Aditi speaks up.
Aditi excitedly: Baba meet papa.
Krish: I use to say na that when I am with you, you remind me of my papa.
Pinky: O My Mata, he is…
Shivaay stops her showing his hand.
Shivaay forwarding his hand towards Aryan: Hi Shivaay Sigh Oberoi.
Aryan smiles and shakes hand with him: Aryan Singh Rajput.
Shivaay feels a little awkward in his presence while Anika, Om and Rudra look at each other for conformation but soon smile happily.
Aditi: Papa, he is baba, ma’s husband and Suk di’s father.
Aryan nods.
Dadi declares: From today Aryan will stay with us.
All nod.
All the while Ragini keeps looking at Aryan with her eyes as wide as she could stretch them, but for Aryan he gives her a royal ignore.
Ragini: What are you doing here?
Aryan doesn’t even looks at her, far is the matter that he will ever answer her.
Ragini: What nonsense Mr. Aryan Singh Rajput I have asked something from you?
Aryan: I owe no answer to you. Who are you?
Ragini whispers: Don’t you dear act smart otherwise I will show you, your place and tell them the truth.
Aryan: Go ahead, I won’t mind if you dig your own grave.
Krish pulling Aryan: Papa see mom is also here. Tell her to talk to us.
Aryan looks at Ragini with pure hatred and blinks his eyes to calm himself.
Ragini smirks: Good idea. Well Mr. Aryan you can’t meet them without my permission I have their custody.
Aditi gets worried and holds Aryan’s hand and Krish too does the same. Aryan looks at Aditi and Krish and smiles at them and signals them not to worry. He goes near Ragini and whispers in her ears.
Aryan: Better luck next time, X wifey.
Saying so he takes out few papers from his back pack and throws it on her face harshly making her jump at her place.
Aryan: Read them well Miss. Malhotra, you have lost the right over my kids. The game you begun years back I am ending it and better stay away from my FAMILY. (He emphasises the word “FAMILY”.) (again in slow whisper so that only Ragini can hear) don’t force me to become Mahi again. I can be very bad for you.
Ragini looks at the papers they are legal custody papers of Aditi and Krish that has been handed back to their father.
Ragini: How’s this even possible?
Aryan: Don’t waste much of your brain Ragini already you lack it.
Then he moves towards Abeer holding Aditi and Krish’s hand. Both Abeer and Aryan hug each other.
Abeer: Welcome back bro. Late aye magar darust aye.
Aryan chuckles: Back with a bang.
Abeer nods.
Meher: Aryan bhaiya have some water.
Aryan takes water.
Ragini walks upto Aryan and pulls him towards herself: What the hell is this?
Aryan: Don’t tell me that you have turned completely blind Ragini.
Pinky: Let it be Ragini it’s good only, now you won’t have any problem.
Ragini leaves stamping her feet hard.
Aditi pulls Aryan with a jerk towards herself: How did that happen?
Aryan straightens himself and placing his arms around her shoulder: Keep thinking sweety.
Aditi: Urgh…
Adi grits her teeth and then holding Suk’s hand drags her from there who is giving her a confused look.
Dadi: Everybody go and freshen up we will catch up later.
All nod and leave.
@ARYAN’S ROOM
Anika knocks the door.
Aryan: Come in.
Anika enters.
Aryan gets shocked seeing her: Aap yahan.
(You, here?)
Anika: Yup. I hope so you don’t mind me being here
Aryan nods in no.
Anika: Mahi.
She completes and Aryan looks at her shocked and gulps.
Anika: No need to hide from me.
Aryan nods: Ask what you want to ask.
Anika: Umm… Nothing much. You have changed a lot, language, clothes I mean everything.
Aryan: Ya.
Anika fidgets with her finger which doesn’t goes unnoticed by Aryan.
Aryan: Come to the point Anika.
Anika: Mahi…
Aryan: It’s Aryan now.
Anika nods: Okay, Aryan please don’t tell anything to Shivaay.
Aryan smiles: Anika if I had to say I would have told him long back. Don’t worry I won’t say a word to him.
Anika: Thank you.
Aryan: You have also changed alot Anika.
Anika chuckles: Ya life changes everything.
Aryan: Don’t you think that the sacrifice you made was took a great toll on you.
Anika looks at him being shocked that how does he knows that.
Aryan: Don’t be shocked I can figure out things, I am not dumb.
Anika: Ya maybe but if the truth would have come out then it would have been a disaster.
Aryan: Disaster already took place Anika there is nothing left now.
Anika: I will leave.
Aryan: Wait.
Anika looks at him pleading to let her leave as she can’t face the worst truth of her life. Yes, he is right the disaster already happened nothing is left now and even she knows that and accepts it. 15 years of separation wasn’t less then any disaster for everyone, not only them but for their family too.
Aryan: Anika I request you don’t let the same thing ruin your life again. Please and ya I am with you if you need any help maybe not as your brother in law but consider me as you brother. I will be with you.
Anika’s face gets adorned with a comfortable smile.
Anika: Thank you.
Aryan smiles.
Anika before leaving turns back: Btw bhai, what happened that you got married to Ragini?
Aryan smiles hearing bhai but the question makes him uncomfortable: You will know everything soon Anika.
Anika nods understanding his discomfort: Come soon for the lunch.
Aryan nods and Anika leaves.
@DINING TABLE
Gauri: What happened to you Atharv?
Atharv: Nothing choti ma, just some tiredness and head ache.
Gauri: Show me.
Saying that she places her hand on his head.
Gauri: Athu you have fever come with me I will check.
Atharv: No choti ma I am fine.
Gauri: Sit here I will get the thermometer.
Before Atharv argues further, Gauri leaves to bring the thermometer while Atharv waits for the rest to join.
Everybody comes and take their place on dinning table when Gauri comes back with thermometer and before Atharv says anything she pushes the thermometer in his mouth.
Anika gets worried seeing this: Gauri, what happened to Atharv?
Atharv holds Anika’s hand and nods implicating that nothing happened.
Gauri: Bhaujai his forehead is warm and he is having head ache too.
Anika cares Atharv’s hair who sighs seeing the over protective women around him. Soon he takes out the thermometer and Anika panics seeing it.
Anika: Atharv you have 100 Fahrenheit fever and you are saying, you are okay. Why didn’t you tell me before, I would have given you medicine. Sit here I will get medicine for you and kada (herbal medicine in liquid form) too.
Atharv’s eyes become wider hearing kada.
Atharv: No way. No kada please.
Shivaay chuckles as his reaction as his reaction is same which he, himself use to give when Anika use to make him drink kada. Atharv glares Shivaay who silences himself.
Anika: No if’s and no but’s. You will have to drink kada and eat medicines without another word.
Anika leaves without hearing another word leaves followed by Gauri.
Atharv punches Shivaay’s arm: Do something of your wife.
Shivaay: What shall I do, drink kada now.
Atharv making a puppy face: Papa, please pleaseeeeeee I will eat meds but no kada pleaseeeee. Try to convince her.
Shivaay: Have you lost it, if I even try talking to her she will make me drink kada along with you.
Anya: Stop cribbing bhaiya.
Atharv: If you are so much interested Anya then why don’t you try kada once.
Anya with innocent puppy face: But I am not having fever, you are ill.
Atharv makes an annoyed face.
Shivaay notices Sukanya’s absence so he questions: Where is Sukanya?
Aditi: I went to call her so she said that she isn’t hungry and is feeling sleepy.
Shivaay: She can sleep even after eating her food.
Manik: Let it be uncle she is mad. Today in morning I asked her why is she so tired? She said it’s nothing like that. Then I asked her is she okay. She said she is having head ache and a bit tired due to practice that’s all but she is fine. Then I asked her shall I get her meds. She said no she doesn’t wants them. Then I advice her to go to infirmary but again she said she doesn’t wants to go and she is fine. During lunch time I asked her why is she not eating properly she said, she isn’t hungry but she is fine. (he takes a breath) in short your daughter is mad.
All look at him as soon as he ends narrating his part, while Atharv is smiling sheepishly looking at him and soon bursts out laughing followed by Abeer, Advik, Aditi and Krish.
Manik confused: Why are you laughing?
Atharv teasingly: You know her entire schedule brother.
Manik: So what we were together entire day.
Atharv: Ya ya. TOGETHER.
He emphasises the word “TOGETHER”.
Anika and Gauri hear the conversation as they come back.
Anika: Why is Suk behaving so wierdly?
Manik: Babes when does she behaves normally.
Anika: Point. That never happens.
Shivaay: Wait I will go and check her. Meanwhile, you give kada to Atharv.
He says smiling at Atharv who makes a sad puppy face. Anika nods.
Anika: Have this kada, fast.
Atharv: Please no.
Anika sternly: Drink it fast.
Atharv takes the kada and making ugly faces drinks it.
Anika: Now eat something and after that take these medicines.
She says keeping medicines near his plates and he nods gloomily. She serves him food and he starts eating and rest to start their food.
@SHIVAAY’S ROOM
Sukanya is sleeping on the bed actually her position is more like she has thrown herself on it.
Shivaay enters the room and sits on the bed and slightly caring her hair in a very polite tone says: Get up Baccha.
Suk doesn’t respond but something other then that catches his attention and that is the temperature of Sukanya’s forehead. Just to confirm himself he places his hand on Suk’s forehead and then on her cheeks and finds it to be very hot. He gets worried and pats Suk’s cheeks repeatedly and keeps chanting her name along with that.
Shivaay: Sukanya wake up. Wake up Sukanya. Sukanya. Sukanya. Sukanya wake up Baccha.
After nearly five minutes Suk tries opening her eyes with great difficulty and looks at him.
Shivaay: Sukanya. Get up beta.
Suk in hardly audible voice: Body is paining.
Shivaay: Wait I will help you.
He helps her in sitting up and makes her rest her back on a pillow.
Shivaay: You sit here I will get some food and medicine for you.
Sukanya: I don’t need anything. I will be fine.
Shivaay: Keep quite and you will have to eat food and medicine or otherwise I will ask Anika to give you kada.
Sukanya looks at him by widening her eyes, not actually they weren’t really wide but as much she could widen them she did.
Sukanya: No. Please that kada is really bad.
Shivaay: I will be back don’t sleep okay.
Sukanya nods.
@BACK AT THE DINING TABLE
Shivaay comes rushing down.
Dadi: Billu where is Sukanya?
Shivaay: She is also having fever.
He says glaring Atharv, who looks at him like others.
Shivaay: What have you both done that you two have fever and that too on same day.
Anika: I told you both not to be in rain for long. But who listens to me. I will see this girl. Iss ladki ne toh kasam khayi hui hai ki mujhe chain se nahi jeena degi.
(This girl has sworn that she won’t let me live peacefully.)
Shivaay: You wait, complete your food and then go till then I will make her eat.
Anika nods and hands over a plate to him.
Shivaay before leaving: I didn’t forget my question Atharv be ready to answer.
Atharv doesn’t looks at him and eat his food putting his entire concentration on his food just to escape his fathers scolding’s as yesterday’s ice cream incident plays in his head and he mocks at himself.
@SHIVAAY’S ROOM
Sukanya is resting her head on the bed rest when Shivaay enters with a plate of food for her.
Shivaay: Sukanya come I will make you eat.
Sukanya nods weakly.
Shivaay begins to feed her slowly.
Sukanya: Did you eat?
Shivaay: I will eat later.
Sukanya: No you too eat please.
Shivaay smiles and eats with her.
After they end with their food everybody accept kids enters the room.
Anika: Atharv you too lay down.
Atharv nods and lays beside Sukanya.
Sukanya: What happened to you?
Atharv: STS.
Sukanya nods.
Anika gives meds to Sukanya: Eat this.
Sukanya: Pyaar Si khila do.
(You can make me eat that lovingly too.)
Anika: Thappad ke saath na khilaun.
(Shan’t I make you eat this with a slap.)
Sukanya making a puppy face takes the medicine and eats them.
Anika: Har dusre tessre din iss ladki ne aapni halat kharab zaroor karni hoti hai. Kabhi issko maar lo, kabhi usko maar lo aur agar kuch na mile toh bimaar ho jati ha. Apna khayal toh rakha hi nahi jata iss se. Jab dekho mujhe tension deti hai bas aur kuch nahi. Jab kal mana kiya tha zyada der barish me rehne se toh kun nahi suni meri aab hogayi ho na bimaar. Kasam kha kar aayi ho kya ki ek bhi baar meri baat nahi sunno gi iss Zindagi me. Bas jab dekho tab udti rehti. Aaj ke baad meri agar ek bhi baat nahi Mani na tune toh dekh Lena itni pitai karungi ki akal thikane aa jayegi. Mai toh bas aise hi bolti rehti hun meri toh koi sunta nahi hai.
(Every other day this girls has to spoil her condition. Either she keeps knocking off people out of their wits and if not that then she gets ill. This girl can’t take care of herself even for once. She just knows how to give me tension, nothing else. When I had forbade her to go in rain why didn’t you listen to me? Have you sworn that you won’t listen to me even once. If you didn’t listen to me from here on then I will hit you so badly that you will get back your senses. I just keep blabbering but you never hear to me.)
Anika keeps ranting Sukanya while placing cloth dipped in cold water on her and Atharv’s forehead with Gauri’s help. While the rest settle themselves in the room smiling at the way Anika is scolding Sukanya.
While Sukanya hugs Anika as soon as she takes a breath.
Sukanya whispers: Emotions chupana not allowed hai.
(You aren’t allowed to hide your emotions.)
Anika nods in disbelief and gives in as her tears make a way via her eyes.
Anika: Jab malum hai tujhe ki mai tujhe iss tarhan se nahi dekh sakti toh kun har baar satati hai tun mujhe.
(When you know that I can’t see you like this then why do you do this?)
Sukanya: Kya Karun apko satana mera janam sidh adhkar hai.
(What to do, it’s my birth right to give you tension.)
Anika hits her back playfully.
Abeer: Ary bas karo Anika tum toh serial ki bahun ko bhi maat deti Ho ansu bahane me.
(Stop it Anika, you give a very tough competition to the heroines of serial in crying.)
Anika throws a pillow at him: Shut up Abeer.
Everybody chuckles.
Anika: Lay down now.
Sukanya nods.
Suk: Buddy my pillow.
Abeer comes and places the pillow below her head and makes her rest on it.
Abeer whispers so that it’s only audible to Suk: I know that you ate ice cream yesterday which landed you up here.
Suk being scared: Buddy…
Abeer: Don’t worry I won’t say but I won’t let you go that easily too.
Suk makes a puppy face.
Dadi: Anika tun aise hi fikar kar rahi hai ye bacche hain thoda bohaata bukhara toh Ata rehta hai. Chal aab Rona band kar.
(Anika you are taking tension uselessly, they are kids and fever is common with them. Now stop crying.)
Anika nods and wipes her tears.
Bhavya: Bhabhi take this kada.
Hearing the word kada itself Suk hides herself under the duvet.
Anika strictly: Koi nakhre nahi chalenga chup chap kada piyo.
(Don’t show me tantrums, drink this quietly.)
Sukanya: Mumma please.
Atharv: Drink, I also drak.
Suk: Kal ko tun zahr piyega toh Vo bhi mujh ko pina padega kya.
(If you will drink poison, then even I will have to drink it.)
Atharv: Ya for sure.
Sukanya: I will kill you.
Atharv nods.
Anika: Sukanya have this.
Suk looks hopefully at everyone.
Shivaay: Anika let it be she has had medicines.
Atharv throws a pillow on Shivaay.
Atharv: I hate you papa. When it is about your daughter you became lion from cat but when it was about me you just backed off you are such a scared crow.
All laugh at poor SSO, what all he has to go throw. He got to handle tantrums from his entire family. THE GREAT SHIVAAY SINGH OBEROI whose name use to scare hell out of people now has become a scared crow ???.
Anika gives the glass to Shivaay: Aap hi na sar chada kar rakha hai, aap hi sambhaliye. Magar mujhe ye glass Khali chahiye. Aur khud pine ki koshish toh bilkul bhi maat karna. Nahi isse wash basin me phenkne ki koshish karna.
(You have only spoilt her, now you only handle. I want the glass to empty asap and don’t you either dear drinking it yourself or throwing it in wash basin.)
Shivaay looks shocked not only because Anika handed him the glass but also because of the number of ideas she supplied.
Shivaay: What was that?
Abeer: Old ideas.
Shivaay nods in disbelief.
Shivaay: Suk please drink it.
Suk: No ways.
Shivaay: Please Baccha drink this you will become fine.
Om: Shivaay if you will ask her with so much love then forget it she will never abide.
Shivaay: Then.
Gauri: Make her drink forcefully.
Shivaay glares her for her weird idea: No never.
Rudra: Su I will give you a chocolate please drink it.
Suk: No.
Bhavya hits his shoulder: Bribery is an offence punishable by law. You are committing a crime. I will put you behind the bars under IPC section…
Shivaay: Bhavya today put any charge on this duffer but put him behind the bars.
Rudra cribs making a puppy face.
Shivaay back to Sukanya: Please Suk. It’s not that bad.
Sukanya: Fine then you drink it.
Shivaay: Okay if I will drink it then, will you have it.
Sukanya thinks that he is just pestering her so that she drinks it so she simply nods. But Shivaay takes it seriously and pours one fourth in another glass and hands over the rest to Sukanya. He drinks it.
Sukanya: Aap toh serious hi ho Gaye.
(You became serious.)
Shivaay nods and points at the glass in Sukanya’s hand. Sukanya makes faces but finally after muttering thousands of curses drinks the kada. As soon as Suk drinks it Shivaay rushes to washroom and spits the kada. Leaving everyone burst into fits of laughter. While Suk makes a sad face as because of her he had to drink that kada.
Suk: Sorry.
Shivaay: No need. Now you sleep.
Both of you take rest.
Both nod and sleep while everybody leaves from their wishing them get well soon.
