Raavi and anita reaches pandya niwas. All the way long to pandya niwas raavi kept her radio on. Anita tries to tell her something but raavi was not ready to listen. Almost all the guests were there. as soon as raavi reaches, she straight away hugs dhara.

Ra: (happily) dhara diiiiii......main itni khush hu itni khush hu itni khush hu ki main bta nhi sakti kitni khush hu.....

Sh: aee chipakali.....tu already bta rhi hai ki tu kitni khush hai....

Ra: (irritated) chup reh bhoothnaath......

Su: (comes near to them) teri maasi nhi aayi raavi?.....

Ra: (looks down) nhi kaaki......

Su: maine prafulla ke samne aise sarat rakh ke galti-

Ra: nhi kaaki...(goes to her) maasi se galti hui thi.....aur agr voh maafi maang legit oh choti nhi ho jayengi...balki dono ghro ki duriyaan mit jaaye gi....

Su: (caressing raavi's hair) tu bahut sajhdaar hai......

Kr: (teasing) samjhdaar hai.....tabhi toh shiva akal thikane pe hai....

Sh: (hits krish's head) jayada mat bol samjha....

Kr: haath tuta hai par maar pitai always on.....gunda boy....

Everyone chuckles seeing shiva and krish.

After this everyone starts dancing. Shiva and dhara sit together making faces as suman told them not to dance. Dhara observes anita who was standing alone and looked tensed. Shiva looks at dhara.

Sh: Bhabhi kya hua.....anita ko aise kyu dekh rahe ho?

Dh: shiva anita kuch paresaan nhi lag rhi?......puchti hu....

Shiva nods. Dhara calls anita. She comes.

Dh: kya hua anita tu paresaan lag rhi hai......sab thik hai na?

An: mujhe tum dono ko kuch btana hai....

Sh: kya btana hai?...

An: (tensed) shiva vo baat ye-

Ra: (intrupts) aree anita di....aap yahan baatein kar rhe ho.....chlo dance karte hai....

Raavi drags anita to the dance floor. Anita tries again talk to someone there but unable.

As party ends, everyone leaves. Only raavi and anita with pandya family were there.

Everyone sits in hall and starts their chit-chat. Raavi goes to kitchen and starts serving moongdal halwa and kheer for everyone. Rishita too comes there.

Ri: kya kar rhi ho raavi?

Ra: (excited) kuch nhi....maine na dhara di aur shiva ka favourite moongdal halwa aur kheer banayi thi.... Vahi leke jaa rhi hu sabke liye.....

Ri: (excitedly) wow moongdal halwa....woh toh mera bhi favourite hai.....kitne din hogye mujhe khaye hue....jab main ghar me thi har dusre din maa-

Rishita stops and tears fill up in her eyes.

Ra: (smiling) aaj tak auntie ke haath ka khaya.....aaj mere haath ka try karo....(forwards a spoon full of halwa)

Ri: (happily eats it)....mmmm, kitna tasty bikul maa jaisa.....

Ra: chalo ab sabko de de.....

Ri: hmm

Both goes outside. Anita gets tensed seeing this. Raavi-rishita keep the tray on the table.

An: (tensed) raavi voh halwa-

Ra: (happily) hn ye halwa maine dhara di ke liye especially banaya hai.....

An: raavi voh-

Ra: (to dhara) khao na dhara di....aur batao kaisa bana hai

Saying this raavi forwards a sppon full halwa towards dhara. Bfore dhara could eat it, thud, sound of a bowl falling is heard. All turns to the direction and see rishita losing her consciousness. Dev rushes and holds her. He tries to keep her awake but soon rishita completely loss her consciousness. Everyone gets panic. Gautum asks for kanta kaaki's car and rushes to hospital with dev. Shiva and anita also go leaving raavi, dhara, krish and suman at home.

After an hour, raavi calls shiva. shiva tells that doctor has treated rishita and she is out of danger. He tells that doctors are still trying to find out what is the root cause. He tells that doctor says that may be it's some sort of poison may be. Raavi tells the same to rest.

After an hour, shiva angrily enters the house followed by gautum and anita. Shiva straight away goes inside and stands before raavi.

Ra: (concerned) rishita kaisi hai?

Sh: (sarcasticaly) tujhe jaan ke dukh hoga ki zinda hai......

Ra: (shocked) tu ye-

Sh: (showing his hand) bas......tune toh koi kasar nhi chodi thi.....aaj toh pure pariwaar ko tu maar ke chodti....

Ra: *shocked*

Dh: (yells) shiva kya bakwash kiye ja rha hai.....hosh me toh hai.....

Sh: bakwash nhi kar rha hu Bhabhi sach bol raha hu.......(pointing towards table) ye jo halwa hai na sume zehr....rishita Bhabhi ko isne apne haath se khilaya tha....aur aapko bhi khilane wali thi.....

Ra: (yells)kya bakwash kar rha hai....maine zehr?....

Sh: hn zehr....agr Bhabhi ko sahi time pe hospital nhi le jaate toh-.......tu kya plan banake aayi thi....sabko ek saath upar pahuchane ka....

Ra: (shouts) shivaaaa.....

Sh: aree chillane se kya hoga....sach toh nhi badale ge....aur sach ye hai ki jo tu halwa layi thi usme zehr tha.....aur hum sab usse khaane wale the.....

Ra: (shouts) maine koi zehr nhi milaya.....

Su: (yells) toh kisne milaya teri maasi nee.....

Ra: (wishpers) maasi........nhi maasi aisa nhi karegi....voh kisi ki jaan nhi legi....

Sh: ek min.....maami, ye......oh ab samjha....ye sab tune uss maami ke kehne pe kiya.....dono ka plan tha na......mujhe toh lag rha hai ki ye tera pyaar bhi dhong-

Shiva stops earning a tight slap on his face.

Ra: (angrily holding his collar) himmat kaise hui teri mere pyaar ko dhong kehne ki......tujhe mera pyaar dhong lagta hai.....

Sh: (jerking her hand) hn....tune jo kiya uske baad yahi lagta hai.....

Ra: (yells) maine kuch nhi kiya......aur ye na main abhi sabit kar dungi.....(takes a halwa bowl) maine iss halwe me koi zehr nhi dala...aur ab main isse kha ke ye sabit karungi...

Raavi takes a spoon and take it near her mouth but before she could eat shiva throws the halwa on the floor. Raavi looks him shocked.

Sh: (angrily) koi zaroorat nhi hai iss dikhave ki.....mahaan mat ban samjhi......meri hi galti hai main teri asliat ko samjh nhi paya......(pointing towards gate) chali ja yahan se.....aur kabhi apna chehara mat dikhana......chali ja.....

Raavi looks him shocked whereas he turns to other side.

Ra: (hurt) itna hi vishwaas hai tujhe mujh par....itna kamjoor tha tera pyaar?.....

Shiva refuses to answer. Raavi runs outside crying. As she ran, shiva looks her and a tear falls down his eyes. Anita goes behind raavi.

Everyone in the house stand there only being shocked.

aaj main jayada kuch nhi bolungi.....because I know sab meri jaan lene wale hai....
