Sunaina caresses her face and says "I can never be angry with you. Yeah, I was a bit upset yesterday because of what happened but now I am fine."
Kalpana says "You are fine bhabi? Sure?"
Sunaina laughs and says "Yeah. I am fine."
Kalpana says "Means, you are ready to marry
Sammy?"
Sunaina widens her eyes and says "What?
Kalpi..."
Kalpana says "Please na bhabi. Sammy is such a
nice man. He is perfect for you. Please say Yes."
Sunaina hits Kalpana 's head saying "Mad girl.
Anything you talk..."
Kalpana says "Please bhabi. Sammy is so handsome
and you are so beautiful. Your jodi will be like Kajol and SRK from DDLJ"
Sunaina laughs and says "Kalpi beta, you are
seriously crazy."
Kalpana says "Oh bhabi. Call me crazy, call me
mad, call me anything but please say yes." She joins her hands in front of
Sunaina and Sunaina says "Kalpi, stop. Please...Dad, dad the breakfast
table is ready. I'll call Raghav now..." Kalpana widens her eyes on
hearing that Vikram was standing behind them and she was scared if he had heard
anything or not.
Sunaina caresses Kalpana's hand and tells her to keep
quite and she goes up to call Raghav.
Kalpana starts getting nervous and Vikram taps her on
her shoulder asking "What happened beta? What were you asking Sunaina and
say yes too..."
Kalpana turns to face him saying "Aa...Nothing
dad...I was actually..."
Vikram says "Hmmm...So you're lying..."
Kalpana bits her lip saying "No no dad...I
am..."
Vikram says "If you are my daughter, I am your
father... When you lie, you fumble and so now you are lying..."
Kalpana says "A...OK I accept...Actually dad,
it's a secret between me and bhabi. Will tell you soon dad."
Raghav comes down with Sunaina and they start having
breakfast.
Vikram asks "So, how was the dinner
yesterday?"
Raghav starts coughing and Kalpana looks at Sunaina
pleading her with her eyes to not say anything.
Vikram says "Raghav, you're fine?" Kalpana
offers Raghav a glass of water.
Sunaina says "Dad, it was good."
Vikram says "Hmmm...Only Sunaina cares for me.
Else Raghav and Kalpi came home yesterday and just rushed in their rooms.
Nobody has any time for this old man."
Kalpana says "How can you call yourself old dad?
You are still fit and you look stunning."
Vikram raises his eyebrows and says with a smile
"Haha really?"
Kalpana says "Yes dad. You know that our
neighbor Sheela aunty was saying that your dad looks like Amitabh Bachchan.
Hot, young and handsome."
Vikram starts laughing "Kalpi beta, you are so
sweet. And Raghav, what happened to you? You're not saying anything."
Raghav clears his throat and says "A.. nothing
dad. Just work pressure..."
Vikram says "Hmmm...Today is liars day I guess.
Few moments back Kalpana was lying and now you..BTW, what happened yesterday?
Sunaina, you say na. When you came to my room to inquire that I had food or
not, you looked so upset. Is everything OK?"
Sunaina looks at Raghav and Kalpana and says
"Yes dad. I'm fine. Was not feeling well yesterday, that's it."
Raghav turns towards Sunaina and whispers "Sorry
bhabi."
Sunaina blinks her eyes implying that she is not
angry.
Kalpana and Raghav leave the house and Kalpana looks
back telling Sunaina in her ear "Please think again about Sammy" and
Sunaina pushes her saying "Now go." She laughs as Kalpana leaves and
bids her bye and says to herself "Mad girl."
Kalpana says "Raghav, give me your phone."
Raghav says "Why?"
"Don't ask questions and give me your
phone."
"Haha OK, you're behaving like a typical
wife."
"Hahaha, very funny."
"BTW, what are you checking in my phone? My GF
pics and messages?"
"Shushh...don't disturb me. Concentrate on your
driving else like last time, another accident will take place."
"Hmmm...but tell me what are you searching for.
I can help you in your search as it's my phone."
"Damn...What's your password?"
"First give me a kiss."
"Kiss? For a password?"
"Yes, I don't do anything without a
purpose."
"OK" Kalpana kisses him and says "Now
tell me the password."
"You don't even know how to kiss Kalpi."
"Grr...Will you tell me now else I will throw
your phone outside the window."
"OMG! So much anger. Relax Kalpi."
"You're telling or I..."
"OK OK, control. I will tell you the password.
It's I love you Kalpana."
"I am asking for your password."
"Yes. I love you Kalpana."
"Raghav, stop flirting and tell me your
password."
"Gosh Kalpi. The password only is
IloveyouKalpana without any spaces."
Kalpana widens her eyes and looks at Raghav saying
"This is your password?"
"Yes. I have kept it as a password since years
so that I can always tell you how much I love you."
Kalpana blushes and says "Hmmm..."
"When are you going to say those three magical
words to me?"
"Will think. Now don't disturb. Yes, I sent the
message."
"What message?"
"Will tell you when I get a reply."
***************
Sunaina checks her mobile and reads the MMS
"Think again with Sammy's photograph." "Oh God, this girl. She
sent me Sammy's pic."
Kalpana reads her message "Come home in the
evening. Wait for my slap." "Haha! Bhabi is so funny. I know that she
can never slap me."
"Now atleast tell me what happened
Kalpana." Raghav asks her and she tells him the conversation she had with
Sunaina in the morning. "I hope bhabi is not upset." "She is not
Raghav. She is not angry with me nor you." Raghav gets a call on his phone
and Kalpana notices the name Suhana flashing on it. "Now why is she
calling you?" "Oh God, she calls me every morning." He picks up
the call and answers "Yes Suhana....Yes, I have kept the dress ready and
you can come anytime and try it....Yeah, don't worry...OK...OK, yeah come
anytime. Bye."
"What happened?" Raghav chuckles "She
is so impossible. She is saying that she wants a special makeup artist for her.
Now from where can I get a special person for her only? I have a limited budget
also and Manish is already disgusted with her as she keeps irritating him as
well."
"Then why don't you tell her straight. There is
no need for her to be a part of this fashion show."
"I have taken her so that I can get to know
about Prem. That day she told me by mistake that Prem was planning to order
material illegally exported to India. I immediately told Sammy to get the
godown raided and the police did a quick job to seize the entire material. Prem
and his dad had to pay lacs to escape from being jailed. I am just upset about
the law system. He escaped so easily after committing a crime."
"Don't worry Raghav. Prem is a maniac. I am sure
that because of this nature of his, it will land him in a bigger trouble and I
am just waiting for the day when he and his dad pay for what they did to dad
and the village people. Fraud people."
******************
Sunaina sits on the bed tired after making lunch for
the family thinking about what happened yesterday.

FLASHBACK...
Sunaina went to her room and started crying "How
can I feel like that? I ....I was going to accept his proposal? .....No....I
cannot fall for Sam...." She puts her hair behind and goes to the
washroom. She washes her face and looks at herself in the mirror remembering
all the moments she spent with Rohit. She touches the mirror and suddenly
notices flashes of Sammy proposing to her. She moves away and touches her face,
she wipes her tears and runs out of the room. "I cannot do this....Why am
I feeling this way? I only love Rohit....nobody else can ever take his place in
my life...It's a sin for me to think about another man...This family has given
me everything...Love of a father, mother, Raghav and Kalpi are like my own
kids...What more do I need and why?...Anyways, I am not worthy of Samar
also...I cannot give him any happiness...(She remembers the day when her child
died in her stomach and the doctor had told her that she would not be able to
conceive again)... I cannot spoil the life of another person...He deserves a
person much better than me....I need to stop thinking about this and ...But
what should I tell Raghav and Kalpana? They love me so much and want to see me
happy but they don't understand that I am happy with my life...They care about
me and so wanted me to settle down. I will need to explain this to them when
the time is right..."
After some time, Sunaina goes to Vikram's room to ask
him if he had dinner...She leaves the room and Vikram notices that she is
feeling a bit low but as usual she does not share her sorrow with him.
FLASHBACK ENDS
***********
Kalpana enters the office at 3:00 p.m. after her
college ends and goes to search for Raghav. She notices that he is busy
discussing something important with Manish.
After sometime, Kalpana starts checking the stock of
clothes and starts getting headache. She goes to her cabin and orders for a cup
of coffee but due to the delay, she starts getting restless and applies balm on
her head and closes her eyes. She lowers the chair and rests her head on it.
She suddenly feels someone's hands on her head and opens her eyes slowly.
"How are you feeling now?"
"Raghav, why are you doing this? There's no need
and I have ordered for a cup of coffee."
"Shushh....Just relax. Let me massage your head
and you just relax."
"There is no need..."
He places the finger on her lips and says
"Shushhh now...Relax..."
The peon comes in with a cup of coffee and Raghav
says "Place the tray on the table."
Kalpana sits straight as she feels a bit embarrassed
and the peon starts smiling and leaves the cabin.
"What's this Raghav? What will he feel?"
"Ramu won't feel anything as he too must be
taking care of his wife like me. Anyways, you used to like him right?"
"Just shut up, Raghav." She hits him on his
hand and says "Now go, let me drink this coffee."
Kalpana removes Raghav's hands from her head and make
shim sit down as she sips the cup of coffee and feels better. She suddenly
feels something weird and rushes in the bathroom. Raghav rushes to see if she
is OK and notices that she is puking.
He helps her wash her mouth and says "What
happened?" She wipes her mouth saying "I guess, I am pregnant."
"What? Pregnant? How?"
"How means? How can you even ask this
question?"
"Because how can you be pregnant?"
"Because of you." Kalpana starts crying and
says "I just can't believe that you are saying this. This is your child
too."
Raghav looks at Kalpana in disbelief and says
"What? How can this be possible? We din't even do anything."
Kalpana starts yelling "Din't do anything?
You....you ..I mean you kissed me and now this baby...How can you refuse
now?"
Raghav widens his eyes and says "Kiss and baby?
Are you serious? You think that because we kissed, you got pregnant?"
Kalpana puts her hands on her waist and says "Of
course. This is your child and you cannot say no now."
Raghav starts laughing loudly and goes outside the
washroom "You seriously don't know how does one get preg...." He sits
on the chair holding his stomach and continues laughing while Kalpana gets
furious and says "Just stop it. Why are you laughing at me? What wrong did
I say?"
"You are seriously a child yourself and don't
know anything" Raghav chuckles.
"What do you mean by that?" Kalpana says in
disbelief.
"Come here and sit down."
Raghav opens her laptop and starts surfing the
internet. "Now you understood?" Kalpana looks surprised and says
"OMG! This? Do couples behave this way?"
Raghav says "It's love Kalpana. So now, do you
want to ..."
"No don't even think about it."
"Lol! OK now, tell me did you eat something
before coming to office that may have caused this?"
"Yeah! I ate jalebis from the roadside. I mean,
I could not control myself and after years I ate jalebis. They were so yummy
and I ...I in excitement gulped down 5 plates..."
"5 plates? Are you serious? No wonder you are so
sick. I'll tell Ramu to bring the tablets."
Ramu comes in with the tablets and Raghav breaks the
strip and gives her the tablet. She drinks it and says "I'm sorry. I over
reacted."
"What did I hear? You're saying sorry and that
too to me?" He starts laughing.
"Stop it Raghav. I said I am sorry and now stop
teasing me."
"But you are too cute Kalpana. You seriously
thought by kissing one can get preg...."
She gives him a disgusted look and he caresses her
face saying "This is what I love about you Kalpi. Your innocence."
They look at each other and Kalpana starts blushing.
Manish opens the door and calls out to Raghav saying "Raghav, come fast.
Fire broke out in the mill."
