” shssss…. Sansku how much do u speak?? ”
” arre but the bike….. Wht if anyone steals it?? U know na its not mine…. ”
” u don’t worry abt the bike… Today is ur birthday so enjoy…. ”
” how can I enjoy without seeing?? Pls open this blindfold… ”
” common sansku…. Just a few more minutes…. N till then I’ll be ur eyes… ”
” haaye…( he acts like fainting… Ragini Holds him…) ”
” sansku… U hv gain too much weight yaar…. U shld do some exercise… ”
” look who’s talking….. U shld also do some exercise to gain some Weight…. ”
” sansku… Pls haan… I dont want to listen anything regarding my weight… Daily u make fun of me…. ”
” of course… Coz daily u r not able to bear my weight… ”
Ragini blushes remembering their closeness… Sanskaar hits her slightly with his shoulder to bring her out of thoughts.
” don’t blush ginu…. I won’t be able to control myself…. ”
” wht nonsense sansku…. I’m… I’m not blushing okay??? ” said ragini trying to act normal… But then again blushes…..
” ginu I’m telling u the last time pls don’t blush….. If u did u’ll be responsible for the consequences…. ” said sanskaar teasingly. Ragini looked at him shocked amd waved her hand in front of his blind folded eyes to check whether he can see or not but he didn’t gave any response. She sighed and composed herself…
” sansku stop it n keep moving…. ”
KOLKATA!
After dinner, adarsh came at the terrace and looked back. He sighed and came to the edge of the terrace. He then took out a mobile phone ? from his pocket and again looked back to see if anyone is there.
<<<<<<< at the dining table, all were sitting and having food. Adarsh was sitting next to rp. He was continuously looking at his phone, which was kept near his ( adarsh’s plate ) . He cleverly placed the towel on it after dinner was over and everyone left the place. Rp too forgot abt his phone…. When everyone left, adarsh took the phn and came on the terrace… >>>>>>>>>
He went through contacts and got sanskaar’s no. He copied the no..to his phone and then silently went downstairs and kept rp’s phone on the dining table.
Adarsh: arre chachu wht r u doing here???
He asked as he spot rp coming towards the dining area.
Rp: arre adarsh I think I left my phn here…
Adarsh: let me help u…
Adarsh acted like searching ? amd then came there where rp was sitting while dinner and smirked.
Adarsh: chachu here is ur phn….
Rp: oh thank god…. Chalo good night….
Adarsh: good night chachu….
Rp left from there as adarsh stood there watching him go….
ADARSH’S POV!!
I’m sorry chachu…. But I have to do this to talk to sanskaar… At least I hv to try… For sanskaar, for papa, for u, for chachi… For everyone……
His thoughts are broken by tap on his shoulder. He looked back and found pari standing there….
Pari: wht r u thinking??
Adarsh: nothing… Come lets go….
Pari: u go today I’ll sleep with addy.. Tomorrow is her maths exam so she’s a little nervous….
Adarsh: apni mom pe jo gayi hai….
Pari: hawww adarsh u r so bad…
She hits him and goes from there. Adarsh smiles and goes to his room.
DELHI!
Ragini brings sanskaar to a beautifully decorated Orphanage where all the children including Pooja are there and a laptop is kept there…..
” sansku get ready…. Ready.. steady… Goo!!! ”
N she opens his blind fold.. Sanskaar opens his eyes and is amazed, surprised, shocked to see the beautiful decorations…..
” kaisa laga birthday boy?? ” asked ragini keeping her elbow on his shoulder. Sanskaar looked at her n smiled through his tears. Ragini sighed.
” dekho no rona dhona… I already told you na…” said ragini pouting. Sanskaar nodded and smiled.
” Happiness birthdayyyyy!!!!!! ” shouted children and Pooja coming out of the beautifully decorated Orphanage!!!!
Everyone comes and shakes hands with him amd hugs him wishing him…. Sanskaar looks at ragini who’s happily seeing love for her love!!! Sanskaar hugs her and thanks her…
Sanskaar ; thank you so much ginu…. I just can’t explain…..
Ragini: no need to explain sansku… I know….. Chalo now come on… Look they all are waiting to celebrate ur birthday from past one hour bcoz of that traffic ?….. Chalo now lets come…..
She sais breaking the hug and taking him inside…. She switches on the laptop and there arshi are there on video call to wish him…
Khushi: I wish v were there too….
Sanskaar: its okay guys…. Vaise bhi we’ll be meeting tomorrow….
Arnav: of course…. We’ll be waiting for u three….
Pooja: bhai voh…..
Arnav: I don’t know…. U r coming tomorrow with ragini and sanskaar….
Khushi: haan Pooja.. I don’t want u to miss any of my wedding function….
Pooja: but…
Sanskaar: come na poo…. Pls we all will love it….
Pooja: okay we’ll talk abt this later… … Now let us celebrate ur birthday…. …
Sanskaar Comes and stands near a round table with a big chocolate cake with candles on it…. He blows the candles and everyone claps singing the birthday song. … One person burst the birthday bomb and all the colored papers fall on them……
Ragsan sit down with everyone to have snacks and dinner . Every child gives him a handmade gift. He gets emotional but composes. .
Ragini ; sansku give me ur phn….
Sanskaar ( giving her ) ; wht happened??
Ragini ; from yesterday I’m trying papa’s ( rp’s ) no. but he’s not picking up the phone ?. …..
Sanskaar ( snatching phn from her ) ; whts the need ginu??? ( he recalls how he blocked rp’s no. On her phn the last night )
Ragini: sansku y r u behaving like this??
Sanskaar ; I mean ginu I hv talked to him yesterday and he told he will be busy next 2-3 weeks. …
Ragini: okay if u say so. ….
” Ragini didi. ” someone calls her from inside and she goes… Sanskaar sighs.. ..
” I’m sorry ginu for lying but I don’t want u to be sad remembering that family… ”
His thoughts are broken by the ring of his phn. The screen flashed ” Didi ” on the screen. His lips formed a cute smile as he picked up the call.
” hello didi.. ”
” happy Birthday my cute bandar….. ” screeched a girl from the other end.
” u remembered didi?? ” asked sanskaar with moist eyes.
” of course bandar. How can I forget ur birthday??? ”
” of course.. But pls dont call me bandar now. . See I’m 25 now. ”
” whether u be 25 or 55 I’ll call u bandar only… Also in front of yr children also…. ” laughed the girl..
” okay.. So i’ll also call u bandariya didi!!! ”
” hey don’t u dare. …. ”
And they both burst out laughing after teasing each other for some more time….
” I’m sorry sanskaar I’m not there with u right now. … I k Pooja might be there…. ” said the girl, a Lil sad.
” don’t be sad didi.. Today I hv someone special beside me….. ”
” ahaan…. n if I’m not wrong ur someone special is ur duppate wali dost!!! Right,?? ”
” u remember her?? ”
” of course… U always used to talk abt her when u were there in Kolkata!!! ( sanskaar blushed ) no need to blush bandar otherwise ur someone special will think u r having an affair.!!! ”
” hawe. … Didi hv u fixed cameras here?? How do you know I was blushing??? ”
” I know
Everything baby. .. Now go n enjoy…. Have a blast birthday boy!!!! ”
” thank you didi!!!! ”
” chal okay bye. … I need to go. ”
They disconnected the call! Sanskaar wiped his tears as he saw ragini coming there in an angry mood or better say in jealousy mood!!!! ??
” whom were u talking to??? ”
” no ginu. I was talking to my…. ”
” wht urs?? I saw u blushing n laughing!!! ”
” wow didi u r so smart!!! ” thought sanskaar!
” now will u speak something or not?? ”
” ginu no need to be jealous. …. I was talking to my didi!! ”
” who didi?? ”
” kaka’s daughter… ”
” oh u mean mona di??? ”
Sanskaar nods. She sits beside him.
” I also wanted to talk to her… But no wht will I talk?? She doesn’t even know
Me…. ” She pouts.
” no ginu she knows u… I had told abt u to her when u know we were in Kolkata…. ”
” so she knew the reason for ur coming to Kolkata?? ”
” no… But she said I’ll meet my soul mate there…. N see. …. ( ragini blushed ) but later when she came to know my motive she was really angry on me n wanted me to come back……. But… ”
” but u didn’t went…. ”
” no…. But whtever it may be I’m happy that I didn’t returned otherwise how would I hv got u?? ”
” Ragini didi!!! ” again someone shouted from inside. Sanskaar pouts! She shrugs.
” everyone has become enemy of love!! ”
” shssss sansku don’t say like that!! I’ll be back in a moment!! ” she went from there.
Sanskaar smiles and recalls his moments with his didi… How they hadn’t talked from last seven months coz she thought that he was taking his revenge which she didn’t wanted.. and when two days back he got s call from her where he told that he didn’t took his revenge and told everything to her except his relation with ragini as he wanted to give surprise to her……..
His thoughts are broken by the ring of his phn again. … the screen flashed unknown no. He prayed that it shouldn’t be the no of anyone from that family.
Kolkata!!
Adarsh was sitting on the chair in his room trying to call sanskaar from last 15 minutes but his no. Was busy…. He was frustrated but didn’t want to give up and finally the call was connected!!!
{{ Now i’ll show both sanskaar ( from Delhi ) and adarsh ( from Kolkata ) }}
Sanskaar: hello….
Adarsh: sa. .. Sanskaar…..
Sanskaar ( knew who was that. . His eyes welled up ) ; aa… Adarsh bhaiya……
Both the boys had tears in their eyes. Sanskaar was abt to keep the phn…
Adarsh: pls sanskaar…. Don’t disconnect the phn. …. I swear there is no one here except me… I swear on pari sanskaar….
Sanskaar: ( controlling himself ) ; y did u called bhaiya?? Yesterday wasn’t enough???
Adarsh: sanskaar laksh told me wht happened yesterday but trust me I pari n uttara were not at home n when v reached…….. ( he sighs and told him everything, abt sujata’s bad health )
” bhaiya is she alright?? ” asked sanskaar, concerned.
” sanskaar…. Ur Mom is looking for u….. Pls come back for her. .. ”
” bhaiya I don’t want to talk abt that. .. ”
” Happy Birthday sanskaar!!! ” whispered adarsh as he felt sanskaar is again disconnecting the call……
” bhaiya….. ” He could only say that.
” wht did u thought haan i’ll forget ur birthday??? From last four years I’m celebrating ur birthday in orphanage with poor children like u always wanted…. ( sanskaar looks at his surroundings ) Sanskaar today also I celebrated ur birthday but this time with everyone…… ( both cries ) ”
” thank you bhaiya!!! But pls dont expect me to come back!!! ”
” sanskaar…. I know wht v all did with u was not at all justified…. ”
” N wht happened with ragini?? Was that justified bhaiya??? Wht lucky did with her?? Wht her so called sister did with her?? Was that justified?? ”
” no sanskaar.. I know u both hv gone through soo much bcoz of this family… ”
” that’s it bhaiya. . I think that’s a valid reason for not coming back there again!! ”
” sanskaar everyone needs u n I know u also carve for a family…. I know till now ur favourite movie is hum saath saath hain n u always wanted a family like that…. But sanskaar without prem that movie is incomplete. … N without u our family is incomplete.. U r the prem of our house….. ”
” I love that movie bhaiya….. But in that the outsiders were trying to break the family but in ours…. Huh…. In ours , our own family members are trying to break….. ”
” no sanskaar u don’t know the whole thing. .. N I’m sure when u’ll know u’ll forgive all of us….. ”
” of course bhaiya. I’m sure. … I can forgive whtever that family did to me but I can never forgive them for wht they did to ragini… ”
” ik ragini… I’m sure she’ll forgive us sanskaar but pls once come here n meet us at least… We all want ur forgiveness….. v don’t know where is ragini…. But I’m sure she’s happy coz u were there to support her…. ”
” of course bhaiya I’m always there to support her but for us coming back is impossible. ”
” Sanskaar!!!!! ” shouted Pooja standing a bit far from sanskaar. Sanskaar looked at her shocked. Adarsh too heard her.
” I’m calling u from past 10 mins … To whom r u talking??? Come na lets go.. . ”
She came n held his hand and started pulling him inside.
” i’ll talk to u later. ”
” sanskaar at least meet me once… Only me. … ”
” not now. … For next two weeks I’m busy… Now pls….. Bye…. ”
N he disconnected the call and wiped his tears and went with Pooja. ….
KOLKATA!
Adarsh saw that the call was cut. He wiped the tears and marked an entry in the calendar ” talked to sanskaar after seven months “…
Adarsh: sanskaar I k u r hurt n its okay… But now I think I can get u back in the house…. Bus i want to meet u once… But for that I hv to wait for two weeks. …….. But…. But who was that girl??? it wasn’t Ragini’s voice…. so May be his……
He pressed his lips and shrugged!
…. Whtever I just what u to be happy sanskaar… N i’ll make sure u come back to ur family………
DELHI!
Sanskaar came inside with Pooja and tried to look normal. Everyone was seated for the dinner….
Ragini ( serving ): sansku where were u!??
Sanskaar: ginu.. It was an important call…..
Pooja: u didn’t even listen to me… ( pouted )
Sanskaar ( holding her ear ): So u took my name haan??
Pooja: haan toh?? I hv to again become ur mother coz u were not listening to ur small sis….
Hearing the word mother, Sanskaar got emotional… ” chachi is not well sanskaar…. Ur Mom is looking for u… ” ADARSH’S words ringed in his ears.
Pooja ( to ragini ) ; bhabhi I’m telling u… Something is wrong with him…. See every now and then he gets lost somewhere…..
Sanskaar Comes out of his thoughts and looked at ragini who was looking worried.
Sanskaar’s pov!
Wht r u doing sanskaar?? Just stop it okay? No need to think abt them… There r many ppl to take care of mom… U shld think abt ginu…. She has had enough and now no more sadness in her life and I want to get my old ragini back for that I need to be strong………
Ragini ( coming in front of him and shaking him, bringing him out of thoughts ): sansku r u fine??
Sanskaar: of course ginu…. Actually I was thinking wht punishment shld I give to poo??
Pooja: hawww….. N y do u want to do so??
Sanskaar: So wht?? V told u many times to come with us tomorrow but u denied and arnav bhai said once n u agreed….
Pooja: He’s the groom na how cam I deny him?? u don’t worry…. When ur turn will come na i’ll not even move from ur house….
Ragsan blush.
Pooja: dekho toh how they r blushing!!!!
She laughs and they both goes in opposite directions. Pooja laughs and follows ragini to help her. ……
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ragini and sanskaar are walking hand in hand towards the bike which was parked very far from the orphanage…..
Ragini: sansku….
Sanskaar: hmm!???
Ragini: did u enjoyed today??
Sanskaar: common ginu.. Yeh bhi koi puchne ki baat hai??
Ragini: still I mean u know…. I’m doing this for the first time so…..
Sanskaar: it was amazing ginu… ( like our readers ) … I can never forget this birthday coz u made it so special.. ….
Ragini: really??
They were now a few meters away from the bike but….. But that black hooded man ?( BH ) was also there… …. Is it just a coincidence of him being here????
Sanskaar: ahaan!!!
Ragini: awww….. Acha now u tell me na wht u want as ur birthday present??
Sanskaar: will u give me??
Ragini: of course sansku….. Puch k toh dekho……
That BH is holding something which is pointing towards our cute couple……
Sanskaar ( stops and turns her towards himself ): first promise me ginu that u’ll listen to me carefully and will give it a thought…..
Ragini ( confused ): aisa kya chahiye tumhe sansku???
Sanskaar: I.. I want…. I want my old ragini back……
Ragini jerks his hands which were on her shoulders and stepped back. Sanskaar tried to near her but she showed her palm to him….
Ragini ( tears brimming in her eyes ) ; how could u sansku???
Sanskaar: ginu pls listen to me at least…
Ragini: sansku u know na with so much difficulties I hv killed that ragini, who was coward.. A betrayer.. A selfish… A foolish girl… Haan u know na?? Then how can I give u back the old ragini….
Sanskaar: that old ragini is still alive in u ginu…. U just hv to find it and let it live… N I love that old ragini….
Ragini: sansku… U mean to say that u don’t love me?? Haan…. Say??? yeh dil ek baar tudwa k jeena seekha hai.. Main dobara apna dil nhi tudwa sakti….. ( after letting my heart break once I hv stared living.. I can’t let my heart break once again…)
Sanskaar: ginu do u think I’ll break ur heart??
Ragini: I’m sorry to say sansku….. But u hv Already broke it……
Sanskaar pulls ragini towards himself but she hiss in pain…
Ragini ; ahh……
Sanskaar ( concerned ) ; ginu.. Wht happened??
Ragini: sansku my… My hand……
He leaves her hand which he was holding but was confused as he didn’t hold her hand that tightly that will pain her…… He saw her taking her hand towards her other hand. There was dim light coming from the street light, lighting a bit far…
Sanskaar: whts the matter ginu??
He turned her towards himself and she brought her hand in front of his face, a wet hand. He touched her hand….
Sanskaar: blood.. ………..
He touched her arm and she again moaned in pain… He looked around but couldn’t find anyone….
Ragini: sansku….
Sanskaar: ginu nothing will happen to u… See I’m here na…..
He tried to hold the collapsing
Ragini but she couldn’t stand more and fell on the ground. Sanskaar kept his hand behind her head to prevent any injury…..
( KHNH heartbeat plays in bg )
Tears start falling from his eyes as he rested her head on the road and took out a handkerchief out of his pocket…. He kept talking to her and tied the hanky around her wound and tge white hanky turned into a red one within a few seconds….. He was terrified.
The BH called someone and then nodded and went from there. Sanskaar caressed her hair as the tears made way from their eyes.
Sanskaar: ginu just keep ur eyes open and talk to me okayyyy ???
Ragini: sansku my time…. My time has….. Come……
Sanskaar: wht the hell are y saying ginu?? Just shut up okay???
Ragini: sansku… Pls forgive me for all my mistakes…..
Sanskaar Tries to pick her up but she stops him from doing so…
Sanskaar: ginu v need to go to the hospital….
Ragini: sansku.. Pls tell everyone that I’ll miss them……
Sanskaar: stop it ginu…. Let me pick u….
Ragini: I guess this is my….. My…. punishment for calling…. u my heart breaker… Who actually…… Actually…. Fixed… The broken pieces…. Of my heart……
Sanskaar: don’t say like that ginu……. ( shouts ) is anyone there???? Help us pls. ….
Ragini: sansku….. Promise me sansku….. U’ll live happily after……. After I…… Die…….
Sanskaar ( holds her close to his heart ): nothing will happen to u ginu….. I’m there na……..
Ragini: sansku…. U should fall in love again but…. But…. This time with a beautiful….. Smart…. And…. And a…. Girl… With.. With pure heart…. Unlike me…… And…. And who’ll love…. Love u…. So much…. And will never….. Never say…. No to u…… Sa….sansku…..
Sanskaar ( caressing her hair with her head on his lap ): ginu….. I love you…. U know that right??? I can’t live without you and see how…. How u r talking?? Pls… Pls for my sake lets go to hospital….. See how much blood is flowing……
Ragini ( nods no.): sansku… I know….
Sanskaar: u don’t know anything ginu…. Look I don’t think it’s a very big injury so….. ( he tries to pacify her or rather say himself ) so… So v shld go to hospital…. Pls….. …. Ambulance…..
He took out his phone and was abt to dial when ragini with her other hand snatched the phone from his hand…
Sanskaar: ginu wht r u doing???
Ragini: no sansku…. My time….. My time …..
Sanskaar: don’t do this to me ginu… Pls give my phn….
Ragini: no sansku… Its of no use….
Sanskaar: ginu… Pls… I promise I’ll not ask u to be the old ginu…. Pls ginu….
Ragini: sansku… Ik sansku somewhere inside me still that old ragini is alive but I’m afraid sansku…. I’m afraid to let my heart break again……. I don’t want to fall weak again……
Sanskaar: I promise na ginu i’ll not ask u to change…. pls…. N u r not weak ginu… U r my strength ? don’t become weak… Pls ginu…
Ragini: U’ll never ask me again coz i’ll not be there to listen to u….

Ragini: haar toh main tabhi gayi thi sansku when…… I broke the trust of my family and…… And when I… I…. Hurted u…..
Sanskaar: no ginu… U can never hurt me….
He again tries to pick her up but she’s just not ready to get up…. Sanskaar feels so helpless…. He hugs her….. They both cry…….
SANSKAAR’S SITUATION!
Kuch toh hai jo dil ghabraaye
Kuch toh hai jo saans na aaye
Kuch toh hai jo hum honthon se
Kehte kehte keh naa paaye
Ragini: u know sansku…… Bachpan mein na….. When I was small na…. ( tears flow down their cheeks “) hehe. .. See…. I’m so…. So foolish sansku… ( he nods no.) everyone is small….. Small only…. In… In… Childhood……
Sanskaar ( hugs her.): no ginu… u r not foolish…. U r my brave ginu…
Ragini: bachpan mein once….. Once I…. Made….. Big… Big black moustache….. On… On dadima’s face…… ( she laughs through her tears as he caressed her hair and looking for someone who could help them ) and… And when she got up and….. And looked herself… In the mirror she got so much scared……. That…. She went and…. Hugged dadaji…… Like this…… ( and she hugged him so tightly with her one hand and he took her in his embrace, crying…)
” Kuch toh hai jo hum hain khoye
Kuch toh hai jo tum na soye
Kuch toh hai jo hum dono yun
Haste haste itna roye ”
They both cried and laughed at the same time as she kept on telling her some funny childhood memories…… Sanskaar kept caressing her hair and tried to pick her up or get his phn…..
Ragini: sansku………
Sanskaar: ginu… Lets… Lets go from here… Come… I’m not feeling well….
Ragini: sansku… U cant even lie properly…..
Sanskaar: ginu pls…. Let me call the…… Ginu…. Ginu……
And she closes her eyes….
Sanskaar pats her cheeks and asks her to open her eyes…
Sanskaar: ginu…. Ginu…. Wake up….. Wake up damn it….. Giinnnnnuuuuiuuuuuuu….
Ragini ( slowly opening her eyes and smiled weakly ) ; sansku……
Sanskaar hears her and feels his heart beating once again. He hugs her tightly….
Sanskaar: ginu pls lets go from here….
Ragini: don’t worry sansku… I’ll go…. I’ll…..
Sanskaar: stop it yaar RAGINI! ‘!!( he shouted, she smiled ) ginu….. How can u smile now ginu???
Ragini: once more….
Sanskaar: wht??
Ragini: once more pls… Pls take my name….. Sa…. San…. Sanskaar….
Sanskaar ( cries and hugs her ): Ragini…. Ragini…. Ragini Sanskaar…… Ragini……
Ragini smiles and speaks his name and while speaking his name she closes her eyes and loses her grip on his hand. Sanskaar looks up and gets terrified ? seeing her lying unconscious…….
Sanskaar: RAGINIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!! Get up…. Hey get up ( he pats her cheeks ) u can’t leave me ginu…. Ginu….. I can’t live without u ginu pls get up….. Look i’ll punish u if…. If u didn’t got up now…. Ginu pls……. GINUUUUU!!!!!
