2 days gone just like that, Mehak was busy with the rest of the family and managing White chilies. Valentine’s Day flyer was out and posted on Facebook and Instagram. Vicky said he will get live band to play at the restaurant. Mehak asked what the theme for this year celebration is and Priya suggested black and gold and she said okay let’s fix this as the theme as well. Once all of them started to get busy with their task Mehak send a whatSapp to Shaurya patidev looks like you are too busy and ignoring your wife let it be so when you come you will sleep alone she ends it with angry emoji’s. He saw that before he reply someone interrupts him and he didn’t reply her. Mehak saw the blue tick on the message and say so now you don’t even bother to reply me wait you come back see what I will do to you. Karuna maa suggested to make gift baskets like fruit baskets, sweets tray as gifts. She also gets a jewelry set as gift for Sonal.
At Mumbai while Shaurya busy with his meetings and etc. one of the visitor asked him whtr they have combined with KD group, Shaurya looked at him with surprise and replied quickly no we are not combined with KD group or never will. Then he asked why is he asking such enquiry did he heard from someone. The person replied yes and took out his mobile and show him that is this your wife she is shaking hand with KD and they added there as Khanna group and KD group will be merging in business. The other guy taunted him or is it your wife is doing the business dealings without your knowledge. That’s why there is old saying wives should kept at kitchen not at the business partner you see you don’t know what is happening at your home while you are away, anger raised in Shaurya’s eyes and he wanted to punch him right there but someone interrupted him, he turned to greet him. Again that person also said something similar and congratulate him on the merging. Shaurya gets confused and angrier. He was talking to himself did Mehak does this so she can save the business or is there something I don’t know. He calmed himself and continue to attend the rest of the meetings and seminars. During night Mehak sent messages to Shaurya ask him to call when he is free but Shaurya was angry and is not in the state to talk to her, she wants to tell him about Sonal’s Ghod bharai, the family’s shopping trip and White chilies Valentine ’s Day party but he ignored her. Mehak felt sad and went to sleep.
Next day evening came home from White Chilies early as Shaurya is returning at evening. She prepared his favorite meals and waited anxiously. He came with a gloomy face and greeted all at home. He didn’t make an eye contact with Mehak and she felt something amiss. Harish papa asked how the meetings and everything was. Karuna maa asked him to stop asking him question he just reached home and you started asking questions. Shaurya excused himself and went upstairs. Dolly maasi asked Mehak to go and see him looks like he is tired and mood off. She went upstairs and found the room door is locked and she decided to give him some space. She returned to downstairs and it was soon dinner time and Shaurya came downstairs to join the family he didn’t talk much and said he is tired and left after eating little bit. Mehak try to look at him but he kept looking away from her and others. They sense that he is not in good mood so they kept it short. Mehak tidy up the table and kitchen with Dolly maasi and Awara. Dolly maasi ask her to boil some haldi milk for Shaurya and go see him instead hanging around the kitchen. Mehak smiled and prepared the milk for Shaurya she went upstairs and saw Shaurya was at balcony with his laptop on the other hand he was answering call to someone. She kept the milk on the table and went to bathroom to freshen up and change her clothes. She came out and saw Shaurya on his desk. She offered him the milk and ask him to drink it he will feel better, he ask her to leave it. Mehak notice he didn’t even see her once, she moved closer to him and asked why Shaurya why you look very upset, things didn’t go as desired is it? Don’t worry everything will be fine if you be upset like this nothing will change now smile a bit saying that she try to hug him, he pushed her from him. Mehak was perplexed with his action, he gets up from his seat and hold her forearms tightly and asked her don’t show your fake concern with me anymore Mehak. I make you a queen in my castle but you don’t deserve that. What are you doing behind my back? I was so embarrassed cant face my business rivals or new partners after what you have done? Still in confusion and her eyes gets welled she asked him what did I do Shaurya, I don’t know anything. He let go of his grip and gets his mobile and show her the photo of her with KD shaking hands and she was smiling at him. What do you have to say about this, he raised his voice and shakes her vigorously. Mehak was completely baffled and was shocked because her Shaurya didn’t trust her. She tried to talk but Shaurya held his palm over her face and ask her to stop it and don’t try to say anything and this time I won’t change my mind. He ask her to leave him alone and don’t come near him he turn his face from her, Mehak’s tears was rolling out like rain she was facing his back and held her hand out to Shaurya. Shaurya asked her to leave. Without not much option Mehak just left the room and she don’t know where to go , she went to the living room it was all dark as all has retired to their room. She sat on the sofa curling herself and holding her knees to her chest and crying in silent. She asked matarani what kind of test is this on me. You put such a blame on me and Shaurya didn’t believe me and worst still he didn’t let me explain what I am going to do how am I going to face him. She sat there quiet sometime wiping her tears away , she heard the staircase light was ON, someone was coming downstairs she quickly wiped her face away and notice it was Dolly maasi coming down to get some water, she saw Mehak and asked her what are you doing here at this hour bahu? Thought that you went to sleep earlier. Mehak quickly responded don’t worry maasi Shaurya was busy with his laptop and the light was ON I can’t sleep with the lights ON that’s why I came down for a while later I will go back to room. Dolly maasi looked at her and said just now he said tired and need to sleep and now he is working , come back home after 1 week isn’t it his duty to attend to his wife, come with me let me go and talk to him and put some sense to his brain , Mehak stopped her maasi he is quiet tensed you saw him just now right why we want to disturb him it’s okay if I need to sleep I can sleep here too let him to do his work , she was gulping herself in order not to cry to maasi. Maasi said in that case come to my room sleep in my room tomorrow we need to attend function at your house we need to look fresh and rest well. Since lalla don’t want to entertain his wife then you also don’t go to him let him come after you on his own till then you can be in my room. Mehak followed maasi to her room and rested on the other corner of the bed and crying silently wiping her tears. Soon sleep take over.
Next morning she went to her room and saw the milk was still in the glass. Shaurya was sleeping on the other side. She didn’t want to disturb him she entered the wash room and showered and dressed up and quickly get to kitchen to prepare breakfast for all. She put all her sorrow away the scene of last night still fresh in her eyes, she haven’t see Shaurya who was so much in anger after their marriage or maybe after they reconcile. The tadka she made to add into the dhal got burnt and she didn’t realize that too , Karuna maa who happen to be at dining area smells that and rush to kitchen to check. She quickly turn the hob knob off and called Mehak from her trance. She asked what happen beta why are you look pale and what happen beta, did Shaurya say anything she asked caringly. Mehak brushed off and said nothing maa I woke up late today and today we have to leave for function so was rushing with breakfast preparation and didn’t pay attention that’s why. Karuna maa insist that she will help her with the breakfast preparation and both mother and daughter prepared the breakfast with fun and humor. Once is all done, Awara assist them to set on the dining table while the family gather to eat. Shaurya didn’t come down for breakfast and he intercom to Awara at kitchen to send his milkshake and toast to his room and Awara obeyed. Mehak quickly responded maybe he is busy since last night he was busy didn’t talk much that’s why he wants to eat at room. Karuna maa asked Awara to send his breakfast quickly.
