(Riya and Manik enter the house to see Neyonika instructing the servant about some arrangements. She sees Riya and Manik entering the house and smirks, looking at them.)
Neyonika- Thank god tumne ghar to aane diya mere bete ko Riya. Warna mujhe laga tha police bhejni padegi mujhe apne bete ko dhundne ke liye.
[Neyonika- Thank God you at least let my son come back home. I thought I might have to send the police to find my son.]
Riya (confused)- Ghar aane diya matlab?
[Riya (confused)- Let him come home?]
(Manik looks at Neyonika uncertainly while she ignores his stare and continues talking to Riya.)
Neyonika- Of course. You went away with your husband, leaving Raj and me to bear insults and taunts from everyone at the party. So aaj bhi tumne hi allow kiya hoga usse vapis aane ke liye nahi?
[Neyonika- Of course. You went away with your husband, leaving Raj and me to bear insults and taunts from everyone at the party. So today too, you must have given him the permission to come back.]
Manik (sternly)- Riya ko main apne saath lekar gaya tha Mrs. Malhotra. And you cannot taunt my wife like that for your own deeds.
[Manik (sternly)- I took Riya with me, Mrs Malhotra. And you cannot taunt my wife like that for your own deeds.]
Neyonika- Manik you...
(Neyonika then sees Mukti coming down and starts acting innocent.)
Neyonika- Oh please, Manik and Riya. Why did you guys leave like that yesterday? We all were so worried about you.
(Manik and Riya look at each other, confused, while Mukti comes and supports Neyonika.)
Mukti- Don't cry for them, Mom. Bhai to pehle se hi aise the, but I thought aap unn ko samjha doge Bhabhi, but I was so wrong.
[Mukti- Don't cry for them, Mom. Bro was already like this, but I thought you would make him understand Riya, but I was so wrong.]
Riya (confused)- Mukti, what are you saying? And jo bhi hua vo sabne dekha naa. I don't know what happened in the past, but jo bhi kal hua vo galat tha Mukti. And you know this too. Then why are you behaving like this?
[Riya (confused)- What are you saying, Mukti? Everyone saw what happened, right? I don't know what happened in the past, but everything that happened yesterday was wrong, Mukti. And you too know this. Then why are you behaving like this?]
Manik (looking at Mukti)- Let her be Riya. Right now, she is being Mrs Malhotra's lovely daughter. Jis ko unhone bohot ache se manipulate kar liya hai. Right Mrs. Neyonika Malhotra?
[Manik (looking at Mukti)- Let her be Riya. Right now, she is being Mrs Malhotra's lovely daughter. Whom she has manipulated very well. Right Mrs. Neyonika Malhotra?]
(Manik looks at Neyonika sternly while she looks away, giving all the answers to Manik.)
Riya- But Manik...
Manik- Come with me.
(Manik takes Riya upstairs to their room while Neyonika acts crying in front of Mukti.)
(Manik brings Riya inside the room and shuts the door.)
Riya- What are you doing, Manik? We need to talk to Mukti. Why was she talking like this?
Manik- Because Mrs Malhotra has filled her ears against you. I know her very well. You just let her be okay.
Riya- But Manik...
(Manik's phone rings, and it's his PA. He tells Manik that a client wants to prepone the meeting and meet him now.)
Manik (to Riya)- Listen. Don't think about Mukti. Just let her be for now. I need to leave for this very urgent meeting. We will talk later. Bye.
Riya- Hmm, okay.
(He leaves from there, and Riya goes to get ready.
(Riya comes down after getting fresh and sees that no one is sitting in the hall except Neyonika and Mukti. She goes down and asks Neyonika.)
Riya- Mom guests nahi aaye abhi tak?
[Riya- The guest didn't arrive yet, Mom?]
Neyonika- Maine baaki sab ko manaa kar diya. Aaj bas ek hi guest aane wale hain.
[Neyonika- I said a no to everyone, actually. And only one of them is coming today.]
Riya- Who is coming, Mom?
(Just then, the doorbell rings.)
Neyonika- Jao khud hi dekh lo.
[Neyonika- You can check yourself.]
(Riya nods and goes to open the door while Neyonika smirks.)
Mukti- Aapne Mrs. Dixit ko bulaya hai Mom?
[Mukti- You have called Mrs Dixit Mom?]
Neyonika- Mrs. nahi Mukti. Mr. Dixit ko bulaya hai.
[Neyonika- It's Mr. Dixit Mukti. I have called him here.]
Mukti- Chalo acha hai. Koyi bhi aaye bas bhabhi ko ache se samjha de.
[Mukti- Actually, it's nice. Anyone may come, but they just make Riya understand clearly.]
(Riya opens the door and is dumbstruck as she sees Ashwin standing in the doorway, smirking evilly at her.)
Riya (shocked)- Aap?
[Riya (shocked)- You?]
Ashwin (slowly)- Hello, Baby girl. Did you miss me?
(Riya gets away from the door, moving her head in a no, and Ashwin keeps moving towards her, smirking. He then goes back to Neyonika to question her.)
Riya- Mom aap ne.... aap ne inhe kyu bulaya hai yahan?
[Riya- Mom you... Why have you called him here?]
Neyonika- Tumse baat karne ke liye aur tumhe samjhane ke liye. Ki aise tum mere dono beto ko mujhse dur nahi kar sakti. Ye galat hai.
[Neyonika- To talk to you and to make you understand. That you cannot snatch away both my sons from me. This is wrong.]
Riya (teary eyed)- Maine aisa kuch nahi kiya hai Mom, please. Aap inhe yahan se bhej dijiye naa.
[Riya (teary-eyed)- I have done nothing like that, Mom, please. Please send him back.]
Mukti- Aise kyu react kar rahe ho bhabhi? Aapke Papa hain vo. Unhe room mein le jaa kar baat kar lijiye unse.
[Mukti- Why are you reacting like this, bhabhi? He is your father. Take him to the room and talk to him.]
Riya- Mukti, please...
Ashwin- Come, baby girl. I want to talk to you.
Riya- Par mujhe baat nahi karni hai aap se. Aap please jaiye yahan se.
[Riya- But I don't want to talk to you. Please leave from here.]
Neyonika- Riya. Ye kya tareeka hai apne Papa se baat karne ka.
[Neyonika- Riya. Is this how you talk to your father?]
(Riya goes to Neyonika and holds her hand.)
Riya- Aapko nahi pata Mom. Ye sahi nahi hai. Aap ko jo baat karni hai mujh se kijiye naa. But inn ko vapis bhej dijiye please.
[Riya- You don't know, Mom. This is not right. You talk to me about anything that you want. But please send him back.]
Neyonika- Mujhe tumse koyi baat nahi karni hai. So jao aur apne Dad se baat karo.
[Neyonika- I don't want to talk to you, Riya. So just talk to your dad.]
(Neyonika jerks Riya's hand away and goes from there while Riya rubs her sweaty palms together to control her anxiety. Ashwin comes to her, and she steps back.)
Ashwin- Come on. Let's go.
(He clasps her arm, and she tries to escape him. He forcefully takes her upstairs while Mukti shakes her head and leaves. Ashwin then takes her to her and Manik's room and pushes her inside, further locking the door. She gets away from him as he smirks evilly, looking at her and moving towards her.)
Ashwin- I missed you so much, baby girl. Come to Dad now.
Riya- No, please. Let me go.
Ashwin- No, no, no. Papa ko naa nahi kehte. Come here.
[Ashwin- No, no, no. You don't say no to your father. Come here.]
(She keeps moving back; eventually, her back hits the wall, and he terrifies her. She is breathing heavily, and her body is sweating and shivering profusely too.)
Riya (in tears)- Let me go, please. Please, Dad.
(He ignores her cries and puts her hair away from her neck. She closes her eyes in pain and disgust. He traces her neck with his finger, and she cries badly. He holds her wrists tightly and pins her hands to the wall. She cries out and pushes him away from herself, shivering in fear and badly scared.)
Ashwin (angrily)- How dare you!
(He angrily goes to her and grips her arm. Before she could do something, he slaps her angrily, and she falls down on the floor, with her cheek bruised.)
Ashwin- Never do that again. Understood?
Riya (crying)- Aur aap jo kar rahe hain vo sahi hai? Koyi bhi baap apni beti ke saath aisa behave nahi karta hoga.
[Riya (crying)- And what you are doing is right? No father would do this to his daughter.]
Ashwin (shouting angrily)- Tumhara janam lena hi sab se badi galti hai. Jis din se tum paida huyi ho tab se hume sirf dukh hi diye hain tumne. Tumhari vajhe se humara business barbaad ho gaya tha. Tumne sab kuch barbaad kiya hai humara. Aur ussi barbaadi ki sazaa mil rahi hai tumhe. Aur aage bhi milti rahegi. Samjhi tum?
[Ashwin (shouting angrily)- You being born is the biggest mistake. From the day you have been born, you have just given us sadness. Our business got destroyed because of you. You destroyed everything. And you are getting the punishment for that only. And you will get this in the future as well. Understood?]
(He harshly pulls her up and pulls her more towards himself while she tries her best to push him away.)
Ashwin- Tumhari ye jo kismat hai naa, ye kabhi nahi badal sakti. You deserve all the hate in this world. Tum pyaar ek liye bani hi nahi ho. You are just a bloody curse. Everyone hates you, and no one will ever love you.
[Ashwin- This fate of yours can never change. You deserve all the hate in this world. You are not made for love. You are just a bloody curse. Everyone hates you, and no one will ever love you.]
(He is about to say more things, but someone knocks on the door, and Riya takes a sigh of relief. He pushes her away and goes to open the door. It's Cabir on the door and is looking at Ashwin suspiciously.)
Ashwin (acting jolly)- Arey Cabir beta tum. Kuch kaam tha?
[Ashwin (acting jolly)- Oh Cabir. Was there some work?]
Cabir- Aapki baat nahi khatam huyi Bhabhi se abhi tak?
[Cabir- Your talk with her didn't get over yet?]
Ashwin- Nahi vo baat to abhi chal hi rahi hai. Tum baad mein aa jaana.
[Ashwin- No, actually, it was still going on. You can come later.]
Cabir- Par mujhe abhi Bhabhi se milna hai. Aap unhe bahar bhej dijiye mujhe unn se kaam hai.
[Cabir- But I need to meet her now. You send her out. I have to talk to her.]
Ashwin- But Cabir...
(But Cabir enters the room despite Ashwin denying it and sees Riya wiping her tears and cleaning her face.)
Cabir- Bhabhi kya hua? Aap ro rahi thi?
[Cabir- What happened? Were you crying?]
Riya- Nahi Cabir. Vo bas baatein karte karte emotional ho gayi thi aur kuch nahi.
[Riya- No Cabir. Actually, we just got emotional talking about the old times.]
Cabir- Are you sure, bhabhi? Because bahar uncle ke cheekhne ki awaazen aa rahi thi.
[Cabir- Are you sure? Because I could hear him screaming outside.]
Ashwin- Arey nahi nahi beta. Vo to bas main usse acting kar ke dikha raha tha ki bachpan mein main usse kaise daant diya karta tha. Aur kuch nahi hua.
[Ashwin- Oh no, no. I was acting to show her how I used to scold her in her childhood. Nothing else.]
(Riya clutches her dress tightly in her fists to stop her tears and shivering.)
Cabir (to Ashwin)- Chaliye. Mom ne neeche bulaya hai aap ko.
[Cabir (to Ashwin)- Come. Mom is calling you downstairs.]
Ashwin- Chalo chalo.
[Ashwin- Let's go.]
(Cabir takes Ashwin with him while Riya sits on the bed with a thud and cries covering her mouth.)
