@PART 22…
@ARYAN’S ROOM
Krish is sitting on bed all gloomy thinking about the latest happenings that took place in his life, when Aryan enters and on seeing him understands that what might be going on in his head. So he goes and kneels down in front of Krish and raises his chin, just to see his teary eyes.
Aryan worriedly: What happened Krish?
Krish: Nothing papa.
Aryan: Hye hero, are you upset with me that I am so late.
Krish nods in no.
Aryan: Are you thinking about your mom.
Krish nods in yes.
Aditi: Krish please stop thinking about that lady.
Aryan in loud and stern voice: ADITI.
Aditi looks down.
Aryan: Krish look her at me.
Krish looks.
Aryan: Now say what’s the matter.
Krish nods in no and lays down on the bed with his stomach coming in contact with the bed.
Aryan looks at Aditi and goes to her: Don’t speak this way in front of him.
Aditi: Sorry.
Aryan: No problem. Now let’s start.
Aditi nods. Both Aditi and Aryan too lay down in the same way, one either side of Krish.
Aditi: Papa why are you sad.
She says giving Aryan a cheeky smile but hides it from Krish. Aryan smiles back but then with fake sad face plays along.
Aryan: What to do my son isn’t happy seeing me after so many months.
Aditi: Why will he be happy. After all you will leave after few weeks.
This time Aditi’s face to turns all gloomy.
Aryan: I am thinking that I should cancel my plan of staying her forever with you guys as you always stay sad.
He says nodding dramatically.
Aditi and Krish look at each other with wide opened eyes and then at Aryan who nods in approval.
Aditi: Seriously papa.
Aryan: Ya I had thought about it but now I think so I shouldn’t think about that anymore.
Both excitedly jump over him.
Krish: Sacchi. (Really?)
Aryan: Mucchi. (Really.)
Aditi: Forever.
Aryan: And ever.
Both hug him tightly while he to hugs them and creases their hair with lots of affection as a layer of tear forms in his eyes but he wipes it.
Krish: Papa we will do alot of masti.
Aryan: But a while ago somebody was all gloomy not even listening to me. Now I am not talking to him.
Saying so he turns his face while Aditi giggles. Krish hops on Aryan’s back and then tickles him on his face.
Aryan: What?
Krish: Love you papa.
Aryan: No masaka maring.
(No buttering.)
Krish: I am not buttering.
Aryan: Then.
Krish: Mai toh sirf pyaaaaar se pyaaaar tak ki baaaat kar raha hun.
(I am just talking about looooooove with looooooove.)
Aryan sees Aditi who is continuously giggling seeing her brothers antics. When his angry bird avatar get changed by convincing fish avatar he looks damn cute. Aryan nods in disbelief and turns and makes Krish sit on his stomach carefully.
Aryan: So aapki pyaaaaaar bhari dastan khatam ho gayi.
(So did your looooooooove philosophy ended.)
Krish dramatically: Khatam toh tab hogi na jab aap manogeeeeeeeee.
(It will end only if you agreeeeeee.)
Aryan: Drama king.
Saying so he starts tickling him and the room echoes with his laughter and Aditi’s giggles. After a while Aryan stops and the duo look at Aditi who is still giggling and both smirk looking at each other before hoping on their new target.
Aditi: Papa… Krish… Hahaha…. Please… Hahaha…. Please stop it…. Hahaha…
Krish: You were laughing on me di. I won’t stop this soon.
Aditi: Please my lovely brother. Papa please.
She requests the duo many times before they throw themselves on bed laughing whole heartedly.
Aditi: I really missed all this.
Aryan: Me too.
Krish: Me three.
Papa.
Aryan: Ya.
Krish: What have you brought for us?
Aryan: Well you can check my bag for that.
Both Aditi and Krish run to take his bag.
Aryan: Carefull.
Aditi: Leave the bag Krish.
Krish: First I held it di. You leave it.
Aditi: No. You leave.
Krish: Didi.
Aditi: Krish.
Krish: Didi.
Aditi: Krish.
Krish: Didi.
Aditi: Krish.
Aryan: Both of you bring it here.
Aditi and Krish take it to Aryan holding from each side.
Aryan: Why you both fight on silly topics.
Aditi: It’s fun papa.
Aryan nods his head in disbelief and takes out two beautifully wrapped boxes from his bag and gives one to each. Both happily yet cruelly tear the innocent wrapping paper.
@NIGHT
@SHIVAAY’S ROOM
Anika: Suk, Athu wake up eat your dinner, medicines and then you both can sleep.
Atharv wakes up and smiles at her.
Anika caring his face: How are you feeling now Athu?
Atharv: I am feeling much better.
Anika smiles: Come I will make you eat food.
Anika starts making him eat while trying her best to wake Sukanya.
Atharv chuckles seeing her try her best but on other hand Suk doesn’t even moves a millimetre.
Shivaay: Wait I will try.
Atharv: All the best papa.
Shivaay: Thank you.
Shivaay shakes Suk: Get up Sukanya.
Suk nods in no and covers herself with the duvet.
Atharv shakes her a little: Get up doll eat something and then sleep.
Suk: Bhai I am not felling like eating anything. I will vomit if I will eat.
Anika: No problem eat something.
Shivaay makes Suk rest her back on bed rest after helping her to get up. Anika makes Suk eat.
Suk: Mumma that’s enough I can’t eat more please.
Anika: Eat it, you have to eat medicine too.
Suk: Mumma there is no place in my stomach please.
Shivaay: Let it be Anika she will eat if she wishes too don’t push her much.
Knock… Knock…
Atharv: Manik, we are down with fever but effect seems to be visible on you. Why are you knocking?
Manik: Because I am angry.
Suk in a low sleepy voice: Wooh finally.
Manik: Shut up, because of you idiot I had to hear scolding’s from coach. He has given all of us two days off but not before eating my entire head.
Suk nods.
Manik: Babes, Please knock some sense in this idiots head that when she should fall ill and when not.
Shivaay being irritated: Can you stop this babes chanting all the time.
Anika chuckles, while Manik nods in no and Shivaay grits his teeth.
Manik: Okay I will leave just came to inform that leave has been granted. Get well soon idiot. (Suk nods.)
You too Atharv if you stay with her that doesn’t means you will also not use your brain. One witless person is enough.
Atharv laughs at his comment while Suk frowns as she is too tired to say anything.
Suk: I will see you later Mani.
Manik nods and wishing everybody leaves.
Before going to bed every single person comes and talks to Suk and Atharv, asking about their health, wishing them to get well soon and take care.
@NEXT DAY
@MORNING
@SHIVAAY’S ROOM
OmRuRiYa, MehBeer and Sahil come to the room after having breakfast.
Om: Why did you call all of us here?
Suk: Relax chote papa actually Atharv, Manik and I want to share something with all of you and need your help for something.
Om: Okay say.
Atharv: First close the door and all of you sit.
Rudra: Now say.
Sukanya: First you all will have to help us in bringing mumma and billu ji close.
Rudra: Ary such a simple task, done.
Atharv: How will you fo that?
Rudra: Don’t worry, when Rudra Singh Oberoi is here.
He says with raising his collar.
Manik: Okay, but how?
Rudra: Simple we will close them in a room and being alone they will have to talk.
Om pats Rudra’s head: Duffer after being father of one I thought you will get some sense but your brain is still peanut size.
Bhavya: You are right bhaiya. Inko toh itna vahiyaat ideas daina ki wajha se jail me band karne ka maan kar raha hai.
(I wish to put him behind the bars for such useless ideas.)
Gauri while thinking: Mai sooch rahi thi ki idea itna bhi bura nahi hai.
(I was thinking idea isn’t that bad.)
Suk: Ya phone ke liye bura nahi hai par ye wala bohaat bura hai.
(Yo using idea sim in phone isn’t bad but using this idea is a bad idea.)
Rudra making a puppy face: Why? I can bet you can’t get better idea then this.
Om places his hand around Rudra’s neck and tightens his grip with every single word: Rudra ke bacche pyaar force nahi kiya jata, ye dil ki baat hoti hai aur Ishqbaazi me zor zabardasti nahi hoti.
(Rudra you fool, we can’t force love.)
Rudra while coughing: That’s okay but at least now leave my neck or I will become swargwaasi (a memeber of heaven.)
Om leaves his neck.
Manik: Now what.
Abeer: What about jealousy?
All become thinking.
But Manik is the first one to offend: Kun kisi ki jaan laini hai aapko. Shivaay uncle ko sirf mera babes bolne Si itni dikaat hai ki Vo Puri duniya sar par utha laita hain agar kisi aur ne unhe jealous karwane ki kooshish ki toh uska toh raam naam Satya paka hai.
(Why do you want to take someone’s life. Just by my one word babes he gets horns on his head, if somebody else tried to make him jealous then for sure that person will be gone from his life.)
All nod.
Atharv: This also won’t work then.
Gauri: But why are we trying this. One thing is for sure that they won’t go away from each other ever now.
(Par hum kossis kun kar rahe hain soo batoon ke ek baat hai ki bade bhaiya Bhaujai ko kabhi nahi chodainge fir se.)
Atharv: That’s right choti ma but we don’t want that they get tied up by some compulsion. Especially because of us.
He says last line looking at Suk and both turn a little gloomy.
Suk in determined tone: It has been high time that they do everything either for family or for their kids, they need to do something and that too for their own selves. And now if they will be together then only because they want to be.
Atharv in same determined way: Especially not because of us. Just because we are their kids shouldn’t be a reason to bind them together.
Om: Is that the reason that Suk you don’t call Shivaay papa and Atharv you don’t call Anika mom.
Both Suk and Atharv look at each other and then give a slight nod.
Suk: I know they both love each other and even trust each other but I can never see mumma hurt again and I don’t want to do any haste it’s not that I don’t accept billu ji as my father but I won’t do anything without mumma’s permission both have already bore a lot I am scared.
She says closing her eyes and fisting her hand with the bed sheet.
Atharv: It’s just that we don’t want them to feel offended and lonely. They have spent their entire life for us without even complaining about it, not even for once. We can’t seclude them from our lives.
Atharv completes holding his sisters hand.
All the elders smile at them and their maturity level. How much they love their parents the fact is crystal clear. Their decision mirrored that the love of the one who has sacrificed their life for them has the priceless value in their life and the one who wasn’t with them for so long they respect that person and love that person beyond measures, the guilt and tears in their eyes are the very proof of the fact. Om smiles and creases their head to which both hug him tightly.
Om: What happened now?
Suk: Sorry chote papa.
Om raises her face: Suk we are of your decision and glad that you both love and respect your parents so much. So don’t feel guilty. Mark one thing your parents are proud of you and to be honest I know both of them they will understand both of you.
Atharv: Are you sure.
Om: Definitely, Atharv.
Both Suk and Atharv nod and hug Om who tries his best to calm them down.
Om: Okay now tell what should we do to get Shivaay and Anika Bhabhi close.
Suk: I don’t know you only think.
Sahil: What about a holiday?
Meher: Useless, they won’t go and after being in a situation like this. Never. Never ever.
Atharv: Beautiful, is right. But now what.
Manik: If not a trip then let’s send them on a date.
Suk looks at Manik suspiciously.
Manik: What?
Suk: When did you begin using your brain? I mean I thought of auctioning it as you barely use it and I could get a good price of it too.
Manik: Please Suk stop giving these pj’s with fever your pj meter has also gone down.
Atharv: What’s a pj meter?
Manik: Level of cracking pj.
Atharv: You two are insane.
Manik: Ya that’s true.
Suk: If you two are done praising me then shall we concenterate.
All nod.
Rudra: We can send them on date but how firstly choti ma and then that Nagini.
Suk: Yaar kuch karna padega inka, koi permanent solution.
(Dude, we will have to do something of them. We need to take out a permanent solution of them.)
Om: We will think that later. Now tell where will we send them and how.
Gauri: Simple by asking them to go for some business dinner accept for that they won’t go together.
(Bada hi asaan hai unhe keh denga ki kissi kaam ke sill sila me khane par Jana hai. Vo haar harai ke maan jayenga.)
Om being impressed: WOW Gauri you have become intelligent staying with me.
Rudra: O that because of me not because of you. Rudra Singh Oberoi ki intelligence ka charcha Puri duniya me hai. (Rudra Singh Oberoi’s intelligence is world famous.)
Om hits him on his head: Shut up Rudra.
Abeer: But where will we send them.
Om: Lonavla. There we have a farm house too. I will ask Khanna to puncture their car so that they spend their night their. If they will spend sometime with each other they will surely sort out their differences.
Atharv: Great idea bade papa.
Suk: So this is done. Now (she gulps).
Om: Now what?
Suk: I got to tell you all something.
Om: Like what?
Sukanya, Atharv and Manik look at each other nervously.
Sahil: Guys say something now.
Manik: Vo actually. We know each other from quite long.
Bhavya: Ya we know that you three met in a workshop.
Atharv: Ya and that too four years back.
Everybody’s accept Abeer’s eyes become widen. While Abeer is sitting listening to the already known tale.
OmRuRiYa, Meher and Sahil: What?
Atharv, Manik and Suk nod.
Suk: Actually, I am doll.
OmRuRiYa: What?
Sahil: Which doll?
Meher: Now what’s this doll?
Atharv smiling nervously: She is my doll.
Om: Does Shivaay knows that.
Suk nods in no.
Meher: But what’s this doll mess.
Suk: Actually I knew Atharv from previous four years and Billu ji from previous three and half years. We have talked many times.
Sahil: Okay, but why didn’t you tell that before.
Suk nervously fidgeting with her fingers: Vo actually mamu the first time I met billu ji here I didn’t know that he is my father, so I expected him to remember his doll but he didn’t even get that so I decided to tell him I am doll after my first competition but after the competition mummy ji threw a nuclear bomb on my head that he is my father and my life turned 180 degrees and then Atharv came and I asked him to keep this as a secret. So no letting it out.
And you all will also not say it. Mummy’s pinki promise.
All shake their head in disbelief.
All: Anika’s / Bhabhi’s/ di’s pinki promise.
Meher who had seen Abeer not reacting to anything questions him: Abeer where are you lost.
Abeer: No where.
Meher: Didn’t you get shocked hearing this.
Abeer: No.
Meher: Did you know everything from before.
Sukanya smiles at Abeer who smiles back and nods.
Abeer: I know more then anyone of you knows anything.
He said his words meaning more then what they meant.
Meher sighs seeing her husband’s as usual unpredictable form.
Sahil: So now why all this revelation all of sudden?
Suk makes a confused face: What do you mean by all of a sudden, you only asked me to tell everything so I am telling.
Sahil being more confused: When did I say?
Suk: Mamu you are definitely going through STML.
Sahil: No I never told you.
Suk pats her head: Remember when you were angry with me and asked me to tell what’s going on in my head.
Sahil then remembers the day when Suk had talked rudely to him and as a promise he has asked her to tell everything.
Sahil: Oh ya. Now I remeber.
Suk: Finally.
Rudra: Okay so what are you planning now.
Atharv: To find the real culprit behind papa and SJKR’s separation.
Gauri: SJKR???
Ya konsi chiraya ka naam hai.
(Whose this now?)
Suk: Senior Jhansi Ki Rani in short mumma.
Atharv nods.
Rudra: But how will we find out about that?
Bhavya getting into her ACP mood: We need to search their past and for that we need to go to that place from which their past is connected. Do you people doubt someone?
(Hum unke past ke baare me jaan na hoga aur uske liye hume wahaan tabdish karni hogi jahan se unka past connected hai. Aap sabko kisi par shak hai, kya?)
Rudra: Shak kya mujhe toh pura yakeen hai ki ye Saab zaroor choti ma ka kiya Dhara hai.
(You are asking about doubt I am damn sure that all this is done by choti ma.)
After hearing such a clear accusation and seeing everyone from his family nod their head with disgust something inside Atharv churned so badly that it pained him in the worst way in his heart. Never, not even in his wildest nightmare’s he could have thought that all this would have been done by his grandmother. The lady whom his father considers as his God, the lady whom he loves beyond anything, the women whom he has trusted with his everything, can fall so low to separate his parents. The thought is neither pleasant nor welcomed. His thought process breaks hearing Om’s voice who somewhere has felt the uneasiness of Atharv.
Om: Rudra we can’t be so sure. Somebody else can also be involved in all this.
Rudra: Who else can do this accept choti ma?
Om holds his arm and signals him to look at Atharv understanding which Rudra nods.
Om: I think so we shouldn’t count on anyone. We should start our investigation without any prenotions.
All nod.
Abeer: What do you know about all this Sukanya?
Suk looks at him shocked, this man knows everything about her in and out.
Suk: Umm… Ya actually I don’t know much but a little only. Like billu ji’s entire past. Like mumma’s entire past. I know few of the villains of the story, that’s all.
Om emphasising being shocked: That’s all.
Sukanya gives a cheeky smile.
Atharv mockingly: Yes that’s all.
Sukanya: Fine. I know much. But will somebody tell me where are family medical history reports kept in this house.
Rudra: In library.
Sukanya: Where in library?
Om: Second drawer from the catalogue shelf.
Sukanya getting up: Great I will check it there then.
Sahil: But rest of the story.
Suk: Digest this much for today rest I will tell later.
Abeer: But you should rest you aren’t well.
Suk: Oh chill buddy I am fine right now and rest I will do that later.
Bye.
Saying so she moves put while everybody gives each other a confused look.
@LIBRARY
Sukanya enters the library and finds it empty so she walks in and opens the medical file drawer.
Sukanya takes out the files from their and check them on finding the appropriate file she opens it and gets shocked reading the content in it.
Sukanya to herself: What the hell does this means now? One report is saying something and other is saying something else. This is really confusing what shall I believe and what not.
Wait let’s check who is the doctor.
(she reads the name)
Dr. Sukhdev Ranawat. Weird his signatures are so weird. But will he be still alive I mean this is nearly 50 years back case.
Zinda bhi hoga toh kya usse yaad hoga kuch.
(Even though if he is alive would he remember anything.)
Only God knows but I will have to find him. Who can help me in this? Who??? Think… Think…. Think…
Director uncle.
(She smiles widely on finding an apt name.)
@PRE RECAP:
LET’S KNOW WHO IS DOLL!!!
Keep smiling
Stay happy
&
For now signing off
SHIVIKA ?…
