The next day Gopi’s condition was still the same. Sindoora and Gaura were alone for a minute at the Modi mansion.
“Gaura, why did you push Gopi?” Sindoora asked.
“Sindoora, you was here yesterday.” Gaura replied. “Didn’t you see what happened? This woman suspects me and I had to do something about it!”
“But she only suspects you, she has no evidence. It wasn’t necessary to do such thing.”
“Yes, today she suspects me, but tomorrow who knows? Maybe she will find evidence! And I will never let that happen. I finally have the Modis right where I want them. They are now fighting with each other and soon, when Gopi wakes up, she will be mad at Kokila for trying to murder her. Isn’t that perfect?”
“Yes, it is. But I advice you to be careful. Look carefully around yourself. Think twice, even trice about every step you take. Don’t be overconfident because overconfidence often brings us failure.”
“You are right, Sindoora. I will be careful. Don’t worry, when Gopi wakes up things will turn even better. I will go back to my house now, for I have work there. I am currently trying to revenge Bhavani and Dharam.”
“Alright. See you soon.”
And in a few minutes, Gaura arrived back in her house. Bhavani was still living there without no one to know it, not even Vidya and Shravan.
“Gaura behen, where did you go?” Bhavani asked.
“I had some work to do. Why?”
“Tell me, what work?”
“Do you know what happened at the Modis?”
“What?”
“Kokila and Gopi had a fight and she pushed Gopi off the stairs.
“What are you saying?”
“Yes, Bhavani. Gopi’s condition is very serious. She may not wake up again.”
“You must be happy now. Didn’t you want to ruin the Modis completely?”
“Yes. And you? Didn’t you want the same? Because they took away your Sita.”
“Yes. I wanted. But now Dharam is most important to me. When we will finally marry?”
“I will tell you. You have to make Dharam trust you.”
“But how?”
“Well listen.”
Some time later. Bhavani went to Dharam’s room and knocked on the door.
“Dharamji, may I come in?” She asked.
Dharam got very surprised by Bhavani’s sudden appearance.
“No, you can’t.” Dharam replied from inside. “And by the way, what are you doing here?”
“Dharamji, please. That’s not important now. I want to talk with you, only for a few minutes.”
“Fine, come in.”
And Bhavani opened the door and entered into Dharam’s room.
“What shall we talk about?” He asked.
“I want to talk with you about your children.” Bhavani said. “I mean, about your twins. They have no mother now that Meera is away. So, I can be their mother if you want me to.”
“No!” Dharam said and looked at her with irritation. “how do you know about Meera’s absence?and also You will never be the mother of my children!”
“Dharamji, please understand. They are now little and they don’t understand anything. But when they grow up and ask about their mother, what would you tell to them? That’s why I am telling you, let’s marry.”
“Bhavani, what are you saying? I don’t want to marry you!”
“Dharamji, please, don’t do it for me. Do it for your children. I am not telling you we should be husband and wife. I am telling you that we only need to have marital status. Like, we will be married only in the documents but I will have absolutely no expectations towards you.”
Dharam began thinking.
“Are you really doing this because you really care for my children?”
“Yes, Dharamji. I promise you, it’s only for the good of the children.”
And while they were talking, Gaura was listening behind the door.
“My plan is working as expected.” She thought. “When they marry, I will bring Meera back. And when Dharam sees her, he will immediately forget about Bhavani. But I still need to do something else beforehand. When Bhavani leaves, I will go to Dharam and tell him some things.
And then, Bhavani left the room and went back to her own.
And Gaura went to Dharam.
“Dharam, what did Bhavani want from you?” She asked.
“Maa, since when she is here? How did she come here all of a sudden?”
“I will tell you everything. But this must be our secret, understand?”
“Maa, tell me, what has happened? Did she force you to do anything?”
“Listen. She has kidnapped Meera. She keeps her somewhere and even I don’t know anything about it. She threatened me that if I don’t let her marry you, she will kill Meera. I had to agree, what else could I do? Don’t fall for her fake words, she does not care about the twins. But you must marry her. I will then find Meera and bring her back, I promise you. You just listen to me, it’s for the good of the family. Otherwise Bhavani will destroy our whole family. She is really dangerous and we have to obey her orders, at least until I don’t find a solution.”
“Ok maa. I will do as you say. But how has she kidnap Meera? You said that kidnapped people don’t take their belongings where they leave, didn’t you? And will you really find Meera?”
“Yes, Dharam. I will. And it’s true, I told you that because I didn’t know anything back then. I understood it all later. And don’t worry, You have my word. You only have to say yes to Bhavani. The wedding will be tomorrow, we should not waist more time.”
And then, Gaura went to her room. She had a happy look on her face. For her lies were destroying her enemies.
“Ha, ha, haaa!” She laughed. “Dharam, my dear dear son is so naive! And this Bhavani, she does whatever I tell her! They both are puppets in my hands! And I am the master! Now the fun begins. The wedding will be tomorrow. I will bring Meera back afterwards! I already manipulated her that Bhavani has kidnapped her, now when she comes back here, she will confront her and things will get very interesting!”
Flashback.
Yesterday morning. Before Gaura went into the Modis to push Gopi, she went to the place where she kept Meera.
“Meera, dear! How are you?” She asked.
“Maaji, please, get me out of here! What are you doing with me?”
“Meera, dear. I did not kidnap you, Bhavani did. You was sleeping when she did that. It was really hard for me to find out your location but eventually, I managed to come here. Listen, Meera. Bhavani wants to marry Dharam. She threatened him that if he doesn’t agree she will kill you. We both had to agree. Me and him have a plan to get you out of here. You only do what I tell you, understand? As long as you stay silent, Bhavani will not harm you.”
Present.
Bhavani was very happy. For Dharam had agreed to the marriage. She thought that the next day will be the happiest in her life. But if she only knew that she was a part of Gaura’s game and that her dreams would be broken into pieces!
