Next day Raashi went to school but had decided that she won't wish Gaurav ''Happy Birthday'' and will directly surprise him in the party. Whole day she kept ignoring him. When the school was left, Raashi and Gaurav were waiting at the gate.

Gaurav : Raashi aaj aa rahi haina tu?

Raashi : Nahi...

Gaurav : Kyun?

Raashi : Bas nahi aa paungi..

Gaurav looked upset. Meanwhile Shiva came to pick him up on bike. Shiva looked at Raashi and smiled. She smiled back.. Gaurav told Shiva that Raashi is not coming to his birthday and also she hasn't wished him yet.

Raashi : Haan aisi hi hain teri dost. ''Happy Birthday''. Nahi bolungi..

Shiva looks at her surprised. Gaurav looks down. Raashi winks Shiva and giggle. Shiva understands she is fooling with him.

Shiva : Gaurav koi baat nahi.. Voh aapke next birthday pe aayegi..

Gaurav : Chale

Shiva : Raashi ko koi lene aa jaaye. Fir jaate hain..

Gaurav looks away..

Shiva : Vese Raashi tumhare family mein kaun kaun hain?

Raashi : Mom aur Samar Uncle..

Shiva : Pappa?

Raashi : Hain par Mom unke saath nahi rehti... Samar Uncle ne bola tha unhone Mom ko bahot hurt kiya tha.. Mom akeli pad gayi thi... Isliye main bhi kabhi Mom ke saamne unke baare mein baat nahi karti.. Pata nahi kaun gadhera tha jisne meri Mom ko itna hurt kiya? Meri mom toh pure Gujrat ki sabse sundar ladki hain.. Koi kaise unko hurt kar sakta hain? Jis din voh insaan mere saamne aayega na,  mein uska halwa bana dungi..

She angrily shows her fist to him. He flinches back a little.

Raashi : Aree aap mat daro.. Aapko nahi maarungi.. Aap toh kitne ache ho bilkul mere jese..

Shiva : Acha(smiles)

Driver arrives and picks up Raashi. Gaurav leaves with Shiva. At Evening everyone is getting ready for birthday party. Raashi is dressed in cute blue frock with a pony tail and matching shoes. She looks at herself in the mirror.

Raashi : Haayeee! Kitni Pyaari lag rahi hoon mein. Kisi ki nazar na lage mujhe. Haina Mom?

Raavi nods and chuckles.

Raashi : Mom aapke liye dress mein select karun?

Raavi nods. Raashi goes through her cupboard and takes out a plain navy blue off shoulder gown and a simple choker to wear with it.

Raashi : Perfect!

Raavi gets dressed up in the gown and gets ready and keeps her hair open. Raashi kiss her cheek and smiles. Samar comes there dressed in white shirt and denims.

Samar : Maa beti ka pyaar khatam hogya ho toh chale?

Trio leave in a car. Meanwhile Whole Pandya Parivaar reaches the hall. Its a small hall not much people just close friends and relatives. Shiva is wearing a navy blue shirt and jeans. The sleeves are folded and shirt is neatly ironed.

Rishita : Gaurav Raashi kaha hain?

Gaurav : Voh nahi aanewali..

Gaurav looks down but Shiva signs them that she is coming. Dhara understands it.

Dhara : Its okay beta. Voh next time aayegi. Ek kaam karte hain hum photos kheechte hain..

All are clicking pictures. Their car arrives. All three of them get down and start walking towards the entrance. Shiva who was engrossed in clicking pictures, feels something different and looks at the entrance.

Raavi : Aree mein gift toh car mein his bhul gai. Tumlog jao mein aati hoon.

Samar and Raashi enter the hall. Raashi runs to Gaurav and scream HAPPY BIRTHDAY. All laugh seeing them. Gaurav gets happy and both hug each other. Samar greets everyone.

Dhara : Raashi ki mom nahi aayi?

Raashi : Aa rahi hain..

Gautam : Aree Shiva inki car aayi hogi zara dekh le parking..

Samar : Aree its okay Driver haina..

Shiva : Mein dekh leta hoon.. aap humare guest ho. Voh bhi special..

Meanwhile Raavi takes the gift and start walking towards the entrance. Shiva walks and is about to open the door but before he could open it, Raavi opens the door and collides with him.Gift fall from her hand and she stumbles back, Shiva instinctively wraps his arms around the waist pulling her closer.. Raavi close her eyes in fear and holds his shirt..
Shiva is shocked to see her. He is speechless. He tries to speak but fails. He starts stuttering and fumbling. He finally speaks something and huskily  whispers..

Shiva : Raavi

Raavi without even opening her eyes realise its Shiva. Her eyes get watery. She slowly opens them only to meet his deep black eyes. All look at them shocked..

Everyone : Raavi

Raavi struggles in his grip..But Shiva tightens the hold..

Raavi : Chodo mujhe (slowly murmurs)

Shiva : Kabhi nahi..

Raavi looks at him.

Raashi : Wowww this is so cooool! Aap sab jaante ho inhe?

Raashi runs to Shiva.

Raashi : Aap sab meri Mom ko kaise jaante ho? (Excitedly)

Everyone face drops when they hear Raashi calling Raavi Mom..Shiva loses the grip and look at Raavi dumbfounded. Raashi hugs Raavi..

Raashi : Mom aap sabko jaanti ho? Kaise??

Suman : Aee Raashi,Yeh teri Maa hain?

Raashi : Kyun Aunty koi shak? Dekho toh sahi mujhe. Meri aankhein bilkul Mom jaisi hain aur yeh lips bhi ekdum Mom jaise.. Haina hum dono pure Gujrat ki sabse sundar aur pyaare..

Raashi laughs.. All look at them. Everyone has different expression.
