Twinj: When I fell for you: Episode 44

A quick recap: Twinkle and Rahul reveal Alisha’s ill-doings with proofs, Alisha challenges Twinkle to explain some papers

“Would you care to explain this Twinkle?” She retorted, forwarding some papers, while Twinkle looked on, mixed expressions on her face.
“Why not Alisha? Twinkle will explain why she signed these divorce papers as soon as you explain how and why you tried to kidnap Twinkle, and get married to Kunj yourself…” Rahul said, defending Twinkle, calming her by placing a hand on her shoulder.

“Now that’s a huge lie…” Alisha began, but was cut short by a tight slap on her cheek.
“Enough! We treated you like a daughter all along, and this is what you give us in return? How could anyone be so shameless!” Leela raged, her voice echoing through the house.
Chinki and Amaya rushed to Leela’s side to calm her down, while Twinkle spoke, “We know that you are the better experienced in all this planning and plotting Alisha… That’s why we knew we had to think ten moves well in advance, and we have come well prepared. When you thought I was being foolish in asking you to stay back, you were actually being trapped in my plan. I wanted you to be right in front of our eyes so that we could extract the necessary details from you.”

Rahul presented some more proofs, and things had become crystal clear now. Everyone had come to know that Alisha was the looming darkness in their lives. RT and Manohar gave her an earful, while the ladies cursed her for playing with the lives of their children. She was handed over to the police, and Yuvi tore up the divorce papers that Twinkle had signed.
The children were accepted back into the family, and the entire house was in a festive mood. After all, all of their problems had finally come to an end.
( I didn’t want to drag on Alisha’s part anymore. So that’s good bye to her…)
The elders decided to pray for their family and left for the Gurudwara, while the gang, bubbling with curious questions began firing their enquiry at Twinkle and Rahul.

“Any updations?” Twinkle asked Raj, ignoring the gang, each of who wanted to know what had made Twinkle gang up with Raj of all people. “The police have found them… They are all safe… All this would have really not been possible if not for you, Twinkle, and you too, Rahul… Thank you so much guys…” Raj spoke, tears of joy filling up in his eyes. Twinkle and Rahul smiled back warmly, knowing exactly how he was feeling right then.

“People! What’s going on? Could one of you give us the honour to know?” Kunj spoke, beginning to feel jealous of Raj, again.
“Chinki, is it just me or can you also smell something around here burning?” Aman asked, knowing Kunj too well to be tricked. The rest of the gang burst out laughing, while Yuvi finally put forth the question that was eating him up.
“But when did all this begin? Twinkle! You teamed up with Raj of all people? I don’t mean to offend you Raj, but after what had happened that day, how did Twinkle decide to trust you on this? And who are the people you were speaking of just now? Is everything alright?” His questions seemed endless.

The trio who were instrumental in trapping Alisha smiled. Twinkle narrated how she had found out where Raj was staying at Amritsar, and their encounter at the hotel.
Flashback.
Twinkle catches sight of Alisha in the hotel, and then goes to Raj’s room to discuss something.
“Oh!! Miss Twinkle! Uff sorry! Mrs. Twinkle Kunj Sarna! You remembered our old love story within a week of your wedding? That’s so cool!” Raj spoke, stepping dangerously close to her. Twinkle took a deep breath before she spoke, “I don’t have time to listen to all your nonsense Raj. I’m come for a purpose.”

Twinkle sat down on the couch, while he sat on the adjacent chair, trying to judge what she was upto.
“How much is Alisha paying you?” Twinkle fired her first question, while he looked on boggled. She rolled her eyes at him and continued, “You had better speak up Raj! Don’t you think you’ll get away…” Her words stopped when she noticed the tears forming in his eyes.
“So Kunj was right! Alisha has blackmailed you to get her work done… Right? What is she using against you?”

“She… she has kidnapped my mom…” He spoke slowly, a lone tear leaving his eye, while Twinkle looked on, not knowing if she should forget their past and console him, or not. “The police! Why didn’t you get help from the police?” She spoke, and quickly added, “Oh! She would have threatened to harm your mother…”
“Raj! How could you just sit around crying helplessly when your mom is in her captivity?” She spoke again, wondering if there was a count of the number of sins Alisha had been committing. Twinkle painfully spoke of how much trouble Alisha had caused already, while Raj looked up at her and sighed deeply. “She’s my wife! I love her!” His words shocked Twinkle beyond her wits. She simply stared at him, hoping he would say that he was lieing.

Raj told Twinkle how Alisha had moved to Singapore after banishment from the Sareja empire, she had met Raj there, and being well aware of his past with Twinkle, decided to use him to get back at her. She trapped him in her fake love, and got married to him, which made her extremely rich. Now she had just one motive in life. To make Kunj hers. After lots of planning and plotting, she returned to India with the fake accidentally giving her access to the Sarejas again. When she realised that her plan of getting Twinkle kidnapped had failed, she got Raj’s mother kidnapped, thereby forcing him to follow her orders.

Twinkle then came up with the idea of getting Alisha to stay back when Raj would ask her to leave the house and shift with him. Raj, to prove his loyalty to their plan, handed over his marriage certificate to Twinkle. (Reference to the scene at the work place where Twinkle recieved a brown envelope from Raj) They, along with Rahul, kept a keen eye on her and collected sufficient proof, preparing themselves for their attack on her, as they parallely also collected information about Raj’s mother in secret.
End of flashback.

We knew too well that no matter what we did, we wouldn’t be able to prove that she wanted to get me kidnapped and marry Kunj in return for freeing me, that’s when we came up with this sudden plan last night” Twinkle explained, looking apologetically at Kunj, for signing the divorce papers. The entire gang looked on, their eyes wide open in surprise, as they imagined how big a plan this was. They all hugged each other, and began celebrating, when Twinkle spoke, “I’m sorry Raj, I was under the misconception that you were involved in Alisha’s plotting against us. That is why I crashed at your hotel room like that.., and here, your freedom from her shackles”, she handed over the wedding certificate, and also divorce papers drafted for him.
“Thank you so much buddy! I wouldn’t have been able to get out of my affection for the devil had it not been for you” He said, side hugging her.

The celebrations continued, when Kunj suddenly dragged Twinkle, and held her close to himself, both getting emotional, while Amaya said, “Oh! Look at these two! The jealous hubby is ensuring that his wifey is just his!”, earning a glare from the couple, while everyone else chorused, “Ohhhooooo”. They heard the elders call out for them, and went down quickly, excited to reunite with the rest of the family. Kunj though, refused to let Twinkle go. “Wifey dearest, there’s no necessity for you to stick to that Raj! Get it?” He said, while Twinkle chuckled, nodding in a yes.

“Twinkle puttar, I must say, you have done a great job… We never suspected anything at all” Usha spoke excitedly, as everyone sat around for tea.
“She’s my wife after all!” Kunj said proudly, casually putting his hand on her shoulder, while she smiled.
“And from when exactly did you two get together?” Leela asked, as she recalled her and Usha’s concerns over their wedded life. Everyone immediately looked up from whatever they had been doing, Yuvi and Amaya struggling to suppress a laugh, while Chinki and Aman were looking away, avoiding everyone’s glance.

“I want to know that too…” Yuvi added, sitting down beside Twinkle, while she gave him an ‘I’ll kill you for this’ glare, getting frustrated, as he winked at her. “Maa.. actually…” Kunj began, but stopped right there as he didn’t know what he should say next. Twinj shared a helpless glance, while Chinki spoke, “Arrey maa! These two have been in love with each other since the high school days…”, while all eyes turned to her. The entire gang burst out laughing, while the elders began to tease Twinj, while the lovely couple just joined their foreheads, sighing deeply.
