No one's POV

Soon, everyone settles down on the sofa and even Anika watches the scene from far, feeling guilty for her actions.

Gauri (smiling) - Well, on our way from coming home... the breaks failed in our car... the driver driving the car told us to jump off as we were near a hill... and he couldn't control the car... (upset)... we did as told... I jumped off with Pari in my arm while Omkara jumped after me...however, by the time the driver could jump... the car was about to go down the pit.... I had unfortunately hit a rock while jumping and therefore I was unconscious... however, Pari was safe... she was crying constantly... Omkara on the other hand... had only a few bruises... in fact, he landed in a safe spot... he was coming towards me to help me ... and he even held my hand... but then a car came and drove on him...

Omkara (upset) - Yes, I immediately became unconscious... but my hand was still held to Gauri... when I woke up... which was a few days after the incident... I remembered nothing... the doctor told me that a nice couple bought me and another lady here... their names were Ananya & Arjun ...

Gauri (upset) - As for me... I became conscious after Omkara became conscious but it was due to Pari that I became conscious.... I was in the hospital bed when I heard a baby cry... I don't know how but I felt someone needed me and wanted me and therefore, I became conscious... I wanted to touch the baby... hold her... because I felt motherly love towards her... the doctor came in... and told me that this was my child... that even though I have lost my memory.... I still could identify her... I really was happy...

Omkara (smiling) - I never met Gauri while I was in hospital... however, I would play with Pari... as Gauri's wardroom and my room were really close... and every time Pari would be at the hospital... I would get the opportunity to see her... as Pari was getting looked after by Ananya & Arjun... I knew my name was Om... because of the watch that Gauri gave me on our anniversary... which has Omkara written on it...

Gauri (smiling) - And the necklace given by Omkara helped me to know what my name was. While for Pari, she also had a bracelet with her name on it.

Omkara (smiling) - anyway, I started working in different places... like restaurants... cafes... to figure my talent...Arjun figured out my talent...and offered me to work in his father's sculptures company... I couldn't deny it and I started working there... and while working I fell in love...

Gauri (smiling) - After my release... I started staying with Ananya & Arjun as I had no one... besides Pari... in this world... while staying with Ananya... Omkara would come over often and play with Pari ... and I would always smile seeing their bond but Omkara & I would constantly fight... he had different opinions to me which caused us to fight... however, we soon fell in love after finding out that Pari was our daughter... Pari called Omkara as her father... and I knew at once that Omkara is my husband as I always used to get weird feelings when I was near him... and Pari could only say mumma at the time... why would she call a stranger her father? To prove my doubt, I went back to the hospital to ask about the guy that was holding me when both of us were unconscious... I showed them Omkara's photo... and they immediately recognised him... and they even gave me jewellery that the police had found in our car... it was my mangalsutra... which had Gauri & Omkara tagged on it...

Omkara (smiling) - We still didn't get our memory back... but we decided to get married after we confessed our love and after Gauri told me about her findings... therefore, we have been married for 20 years.... Now... and are happy... we got our memory back seeing our Rikara...

Omkara again hugs Rahul while Gauri smiles at the scene but then that smile turns into a frown seeing her sister emotional.

Gauri (smiling) - I want to make an announcement... from this point onwards this house will become ONE! No more separation... Saumya & Rudra can hug, talk to Ansh, Shivika & Aditi... while di & jiju can talk and hug Rikara, Dhruv & Rumya...

Saumya (upset) - I wanted to do this for a long time, di... but I am scared di... I feel as if I am not valued at this house... the day Anika di hurt me...it broke my heart... and it told me that blood is thicker than water... I bet Anika di wouldn't have reacted like this if it were me & Rudra who was in the car crash... (Anika puts her head down)... Why is it that it is always me taken for granted? By my husband, brothers... sisters.... I forgave them once...but I don't know if I should forgive them another time... what if another situation like this occurs again? I only separated myself from the house because I was shielding my heart... as well as my children... I didn't expect Rudra to support me... I actually didn't expect anyone to support me... because I was always an outsider for them... for the past 20 years... I wanted to join them back... but my brain stopped me...

Gauri (cupping Saumya) - No one will take you for granted again Saumya, and you need to trust us on this... your husband has learnt his mistake and that's why he stood by you... I can see love & guilt for you in his eyes... di wasn't in the right emotional state... but I can see guilt in her eyes... as well as regret... I am not saying that you should forgive di... but give her one last chance...(upset)... no matter how angry I am with di for doing this... somewhere in my heart, I have forgiven her... seeing her love for me... jiju, I have no right to have a say in your relationship... but you were like a brother to me... before you became my jiju... could you & di work on your relationship...

Anika runs up to Gauri and finally hugs her while an emotional Gauri hugs her back.

Anika (upset) - I am sorry... everyone... I have been nothing but a selfish woman... I was too blind by my anger to see the problems I was causing ... please forgive me...

Anika folds her hands in front of the family while saying this, making the entire family weak and soon every individual forgives Anika and hugs her.

Saumya (upset) - I forgive you di, but... I will need some time... as this may be forgiven but not forgotten...

Suddenly, a phone call breaks the silence. Shivay immediately picks up the phone and after a few minutes throw the phone in his anger.

Shivay (upset) - This can't be... I broke my best friend's trust...

Anika (confused) - What are you saying?

Shivay (upset) - Arushi is getting married today... he is begging me to stop this wedding... as he has tried his hardest... he has already lost his son... he doesn't want to lose his daughter...

Ansh (upset) - Don't worry dad... I will stop this wedding... I have all the proof...

Ansh rushes to his bedroom to get the proof while Dhruv & Rahul go towards the garage to get the car ready.

Shivika (smiling) - Pari... why don't you come with us? We can show you around...

Pari agrees and the girls go to Aditi's room to discuss stuff while Yash stays where he is feeling out of place. Ansh soon comes out of his room and sees Yash in this situation and drags him with him to go to the Raizada mansion.

Saumya (worried) - Shouldn't we follow them...

Shivay (smiling) - No need... they know what they're doing...

Precap - Will the marriage stop?
