Scene – 56:
Oberoi Mansion hall,
All were assembled in the hall, on Daadi’s wish. They were waiting for her to arrive. Without any delay, she came with the support of Dilshad and Sakshi from either sides, along with Jhanvi and Pinky.
At once she was seated,

Arjun: Daadi, you could have asked us to come to your room… You’re still…
Daadi: (Cutting him off.) Puttar, sirf umr hoon hai… Par aaj bhee iss sharer mein taaqat jyaada hai… (With a wide smile.)
Arjun: (Smilingly nodded affirmative.)
Anjali: Par, (walking towards her and knelling beside her) Daadi, you didn’t tell us what you wanted to tell us yet…
Daadi: I could tell you only if anyone let me speak right…?
Anjali: Absolutely… (To rest.) Now no one else will speak…

Daadi: (Chuckled slightly, caressing her hair.) Dil, meri bache bahut maasoom hai… Iss ke maasoomiyat par koee aanch tak pahunchane nahi chaahie… (Turning towards Dilshad.) Theek hai…?
Dilshad: Ma, meri vaada hai, mein uss par aanch tak pahunchane nahin doonga…
Daadi: (Nooded affirmative.) (To Anjali.) Ja puttar… Ja apane bhaiyon ke paas jao…
Anjali: Ji… (And walked to her brothers.)
Daadi: I know, it had been a very long time for me to get back to my family… I hope none of you, my kids broke my trust as my own son did…?

Om: Daadi, we would prefer to die, rather than turning out to be like Mr. Oberoi… (Anger spitting through his voice.)
His trance was broken by two hands, on his left was Anika, with her hand squeezing his shoulder softly. And on his right was Gauri, squeezing his hand comforting him more. He passed a pleasant smile to both the ladies. All the face were filled with a smile.
Daadi: Mein aaj bahut khush hoon… Meree bachchon ko sambhaalane ke lie koee toh hai… (Looking at the two ladies supporting Om.)

All smiled wide.
Daadi: Now, coming back to the point… As my sons are engaged, I don’t want any delay in marriage…
Arjun and Radhika shared an eye-lock. She blushed under his gaze. Shivaay started feeling restless. Pari smiled slightly, with a pinch of blush.
Daadi: (Continued.) So, Dil, when is the marriage date been fixed…?
Dilshad: Ma, exactly eleven days from today, pandit has given the auspicious date for the wedding… And another date after two months… You can decide the date ma…
Daadi: Good things shouldn’t wait for long… We’ll fix the earliest date… (To Pari’s parents.) Puttar, is that fine with you both…?
Shashank: Ji, as you wish… We’re only concerned about our kids happiness…
Daadi: Achahhee baat hai… Dil, taiyaaree shuroo karo…
Dilshad: Ji maa…

Daadi: Sakshi puttar…
Sakshi: Ji maa ji…
Daadi: Meri ghar ka garv hai ye donno (Pointing towards Radhika and Pari)… Rajkumari kee tarah dikhana chaaie… Samjee…?
Sakshi: Aap bilkul tension maat len… We’ll dress them so beautiful that your sons will forget this whole world in front of their beauty… What say Meera…?
Meera: (Smiling wide.) Always at your service mam… (With a salute.)
All chuckled.
Voice: Mam…
All turned towards the voice to see Khanna.
Daadi: Dil, who is this…?
Dilshad: Ma, this is Khanna, our security head…

Daadi: Achha…
Khanna: Namasta Daadi ji… (And got her blessings.)
Daadi: Stay blessed puttar… (A smile adoring her face.) Who selected him…?
Shivaay: I did Daadi…
Daadi: You did great Billu… (To Khanna.) What is the matter puttar…?
Khanna: Daadi, there is a visitor to meet Ms. Gauri…
Gauri: A visitor, for me…?
Khanna: Ji…

Gauri: (Was wondering about the visitor.)
Krishna: (Side hugging her.) Does anyone know about your stay here bachcha…?
Gauri: (Nodded no.)
Krishna: (His hold on her tightened.) Khanna ji bring the person inside…
Gauri: (Gave him a questioning look.) KB…?
Krishna: I’m here darling…

Gauri: (Kept mum, her heart was pounding in her chest.) (Thinking.) Why do I feel something is not right…? Shankar ji, even last night I felt restless like this, please keep all the danger away from us… (Her trance was broken by a scream.)
Krishna: Aap…?
Gauri: (Turned towards the entrance to get the thousand volts shock. She was shocked would be an understatement.)
Both Krishna and Gauri turned into statue.
Voice: Will you both keep gaping at me or would acknowledge my presence too…?
Gauri: (Giggled and ran to the person.)
The person opened his arms wide to take her in his embrace.
Gauri: Rituuu… (And embraced him in a tight hug.)
The guy chuckled on hearing his nick name.
Krishna: So you came here to meet her…? Not me…?

Guy: Oh please… You better know the answer…
Krishna: (Making faces.) Oh hell yes…
Guy: (Chuckled and walked towards Krishna, with Gauri in his embrace still.) Now stop being a baby, big boy… (And pulled him into a hug.)

The three shared a group hug.
Krishna: So Mr. Rithik Kirloskar aka Ritu bhai, a sudden visit…? (With a cross-examination tone.)
Gauri’s visitor is Rithik.
Rithik: (Fake smiled.) I’m here to see my baby…? Any problem…?
Gauri: (Giggled and hugged him once again.)
Krishna: (Gave him an ‘oh really…?’ look.)
Rithik: (Gave him a royal ignore.)
After few seconds,
Gauri: (In detective mode.) So Mr. Kirloskar, would you like to enlighten us with the reason behind your visit… The real one…
Rithik: Gauri…?
Gauri: No… Don’t you dare try to fool me…

Rithik: (Releasing a sigh, pointed towards Krishna.)
Krishna: What did I do…?
Gauri: (Was huffing like a hurt lioness, and burning Krishna to ashes with her mere sight.)
Krishna: Devil, trust me, I did nothing…
Gauri: Rittu never lies… (Spoke each word gritting her teeth tight.)
Krishna: Bhai, what harm did I do to you…? Why do you want me to die cruelly in her hands…?
Gauri: (Punching him hard on his tummy.) Speak up before I really plan to carry on with what you just said…
Krishna: Ouch…
Rithik: (Dragged her back and embraced her in his hold.) Relax my baby…

Gauri: (Was still glaring at Krishna.) What did he do…?
Rithik: (Sighing loud.) Get off your shirt Kris…

Krishna: Excuse me…? (Was trembling from inside.)
Gauri: GET. OFF. YOUR. DAMN. SHIRT. MR. KUMAR…
Krishna: (Gulping hard and with trembling hands, he unbuttoned his shirt.)
All the eyes were fixed on him. As the shirt was half open, all the eyes popped out of their socket seeing his chest covered with white bandage.
Gauri: (Trembling and letting out more tears, fell on her knees.)
Krishna: (Ran to her and cupping her face.) Bachcha listen, I’m fine… This is, this is nothing… Okay…
Before he could even continue, THUD…
Gauri: (Was huffing in anger. Placing her finger on his bandaged chest she screamed.) This, this is nothing to you…? You could have lost your blo*dy life… And I would have once again lost my damn family KB… And you’re saying, this is nothing… (Her voice was too soft for anyone to hear, when she said the last line.)

Rithik: (Took her in his embrace and cooed her, murmuring few things in her ears.)
Krishna: (Had his head hung low all this while.)

Few minutes later,
Gauri: (Composing herself, wiped off her tears. Seeing the tear strained face of Krishna, she jumped on to him, hugging him, making him stumble a little.) Please KB, don’t do this to me…
Krishna: Shhh… Relax babu, I’m with you and will always remain with you… Please stop crying, it hurts dear, very badly, even more than this gun shot… Please… (And hugged her tight, showing all his love and care towards her.)
Gauri: When…?

Krishna: Last night…
Gauri: (She snuggled more close to him, fearing of being separated from him.)
Krishna: (Gave Rithik an accusing look.)
Rithik: (Gave him a don’t you dare look.)

Their trance was broken by,
Gauri: Please stop with this staring competition guys…
Rithik: (Chuckled.)
Gauri: I want the person to suffer bad for hurting my KB… (Looking straight into Rithik’s yes.)
Rithik: (Walked to her and pulled her into his embrace.) I WILL…
After few seconds,
Rithik: And you fuc… (Swallowing back his words.) You better change your habit of hiding things Kris, if not I’m for sure going to pull the shit out of you…
Krishna: (With a pout.) Fine…
Gauri and Rithik: (Rolled their eyes and muttered.) Dramebaz…

Rithik: (Still having her in his embrace, tilted her head by cupping her face with one hand.) So how is your art work going on baby girl…?

Gauri: (Smiled wide and bobbed her head vigorously.)
Rithik: (Chuckled and kissed her forehead.) Good…
All were too shocked to even react. All their trance was broken by a voice.
Voice: But who did this to him…?

Lots of Love.
