Bondita took love letters from boys and sneaked into Anita masterni house. She had already won good impression of her parents few days before by helping them . So she directly went to masterni room and kept letter on her writing table and she left silently from there.
She also sneaked into her Patibabu room when Damini is in middle of cooking when there is no chance for her to get up very soon. He is found nowhere and water sound is coming from washroom so she thought that can do her work easily , and study table of his is few steps beside washroom. She slowly walked without making noise and kept a letter in his law book secretly which is on top of books . She thought work is done and about to go but at the same time only her Patibabu came out of washroom by bathing by wrapping towel with bare chest. They both got startled and he almost shouted making Damini in kitchen also startled. Bondita felt so ashamed of herself and smacked her head, bent her head with shame .
He is also shocked and embarassed asked in his slow husky voice that what are you doing here Bondita and quickly grabbed another towel to cover his bare chest.
She said : sorry Patibabu I didn't mean to come ..woh ..woh
Then Damini came and knocked the door calling: lalla what happened? Why are you shouting like that? Open the door once
Bondita and Anirudh both got worried and she looked scared and tried to speak in normal tone : now what to do?
He said loudly: I can't open Pischi I am in middle of bathing just got worried to see a lizard here
Damini is telling that she is worried coming to window side to check him once. Both got worried
Bondita tried to hide down bed but even that is visible to the person who will see from window and she is about to go inside bathroom even that is slippery and she is about to fall he immediately picked her up and made her sit in cupboard and told her not to make sound unless he tells her. And then closed the cupboard
She felt shivered by his touch and bare skin of his body is making her feel her blood warm and heartbeat raising fast.
Bondita thought: what kind of feeling is this . I have never had such kind of feeling before for him
Just then Damini came to window side and asked him peeping into room : Is everything fine lalla
He said with embarrassment: Haa Pischi everything is fine.
Damini: Then why did you shout like that
Anirudh: Just got worried of a lizard Pischi
She asked trying to look through window Inside : I heard some girl sound .
He said : That's a radio sound and not from my room may be from neighbour house that irritating Anita ji house who always makes fun of me.
Damini laughed and said : lalla don't make fun of her. She is good girl who knows cooking and house hold works very well. And left.
(Author's explanation: Damini judge other woman by how much the girl or woman is good in house hold works and cooking )
Here in cupboard Bondita felt bad that her Patibabu is making fun of her Anita masterni.
As soon as Damini left he opened the cupboard and tried to bring her down by picking her up.
She asked him as soon as he picked up furrowing her eyebrows: why did you make fun of Anita masterni? Is it good to comment about other girls Patibabu?
Anirudh stopped in middle forgetting about their state that he had lifted her and told as complaining: I didn't make fun of her . Infact she is the one who always makes fun of me as if I am a joker or laughing material. Huh.
She always does battar battar and brings headache. I don't understand how Surendra ji made her a teacher. And you always do her Bhajan when we are talking .
She is thinking seriously by conveniently wrapping her hands around his neck that Patibabu is not understanding her Masterni greatness. Now what to do and how to convince him. If he won't impress how will they love eachother and get married.
He understood their position, and gulped nervously and brought her down and made her sit on his bed when she is still in thoughts.
He too sat on knees as she didn't unwrap her hands which are still around his neck. He called Bondita.. Bondita and waved hand to bring her out of deep thoughts.
He is worried that which thoughts are wandering in her mind previously also she used to be in deep fantasy thoughts when they lived separately in hut and after returning to haveli. Now also she is doing same thing. did any teenage fantasy thoughts come in her mind and if so how should he deal with it.
He Clapped infront of her and she came to reality and he Asked : If you go out I want to change. Will you please go.
She gulped by glancing at his bare body , unwrapped her hands and silently went outside feeling embarrassed for her behaviour.
After coming out they both grasped what had they done and smacked their heads for their awkward and embarassing moment .
Bondita felt it as blissful too to be in his arms hugging his bare body it is awakening something inside her which she had not aware till now in her life but immediately felt ashamed of it and warned herself sadly that she should not think like this because he won't like it , and also he had to marry Anita masterni and she (Bondita) thinking of other person would be husband is wrong and then went to her room.
Here Anirudh also feeling blushed and blissful to carry her in his arms , he hugged his own arms like a cross around his chest imagining her and his thoughts went to think of the reason for her coming here.
His glance fell on the upper book on desk which is opened slightly. It's a law book he is reading for a case and wondered on what work did she come here and flipped the pages of book . He saw letter
Initially he thought that Bondita wants to communicate him something through letter so she might have written it and started reading it.
It's a love letter to him addressing him as Dear Anirudh. The letter mentioned that his smiles , his talks always made her crazy for him and so she had fallen in love for him, wants to live with him for a life time . Even though deep inside he is happy that she had written boldly her feelings but this is not the age for her to write these kind of love letters. Also this handwriting is not hers may be she might have scared of him and took her friend's help to write the letter.
He thought: But why all this Bondita? Again you are getting deviated?
He sighed and then recollected how he blasted on her earlier infront of everyone and the repercussions which made both of them land in Siliguri and made them stay as strangers under same roof.
No this time He should not be annoyed with her and deal this smoothly. And he read complete letter. At the end of the letter he saw the signature as Anita and he fumed with anger immediately. That means Anita had written this love letter to him.
How dare she is to write a love letter to him like this. Is this a joke to her. And did Bondita know this. And he recollected that she had touched this same book when he is coming from bathroom.
That means ..that Anita had taken Bondita innocence as advantage and had sent letter to her Patibabu through her only. How Disgusting her act is.
He again thought: .. may be Anita doesn't know that he is married to Bondita because latter only stopped in class before revealing it.
But still how can Anita despite of being a teacher took advantage of her student and used her as a messenger for her personal things. He won't spare her and crushed the love letter gritting his teeth angrily.
There Anita also read the letter and torn it into pieces. She thought that Avinash is a calm going person and casually made fun of him. But he had shown his reality..men are always men.
A girl who smiles openly means he thought that he can write love letter to her as if she is an object to be used.
She recollected her mother telling her before coming Siliguri that not to reveal anyone that she is engaged to Kuldeep until he returns back because people do gossip and make fun of her life. She too agreed
That's why she couldn't tell anyone but that doesn't mean that anyone can try for her.
Here Anita and there Anirudh both wanted to burst on eachother but after thinking a while they calmed down themselves.
Anita thought: He is Surendra uncle nephew and she should not shout on him and insult him else uncle aunty will feel bad
Anirudh: she is Surendra ji friend's daughter and she is the role model to his Bondita . By shouting on her everyone will feel bad. She had expressed her wish and he should smoothly reject it and move on. But should not make an issue and insult her.

There in Calcutta Tupur and Somnath secret meeting is observed by Rimjhim and she dragged her daughter into house and gave deadly warning of not to glare, they are our enemies. I am trying to fix your alliance with Chandrachur
Tupur argued that they are also rich family. What's her problem and moreover Bondita is already their house bahu.
Rimjhim: That is what my biggest problem. You are not fair complexioned when compared to that Bondita and that boy is Bondita's devar. They all live in joint family
Tupur : So what maa.
Rimjhim: why don't you understand Tupur? Here I am trying to fix your alliance with a only son of a family and you yourself is fixing alliance in joint family.
There will be no happiness and freedom in joint family . Like me you also had to share everything with jhetani devarani and all.
She brainwashed her daughter that there will be no happiness in joint families and she had to adjust for everything. Finally gave conclusion that she wants to get her and Tapur married in only son of rich families where she and Tapur will be pampered by inlaws and they too need not do service to many people and no competition to her children.
Tupur is in thoughts
_______________
Next day morning when Anita and Bondita are going to school Anirudh also started going on bicycle with them in distance for Bondita and both Anirudh and Anita glared each other seriously.
Bondita didn't expect this reaction from both of them, as per Suketu (stupid) suggestion she expected that both will start looking each other lovingly and smile at each other but neither of them are smiling at each other and both are passing smiles to her but glaring at each other very seriously as if they are enemies who hate eachother from many years and prayed Durga maa to unite them.
Anita to Bondita: Bondita , tell your Avinash babu that not to cross his limits just because I have smiled at him that doesn't mean that he can take advantage of me . And why is he coming in our way. I don't like all these cheap acts.
Anirudh fumed with anger . He thought: wah ! at first she had written love letter and now she is only warning him. What does she think of herself? I am coming here for Bondita and she..huh. no he should also give warning to her.
Anirudh to Bondita : Dekho Bondita, you also know na I will speak straight forward. I don't like people playing with me.. Tell your masterni that I don't like all these things.
Anita thought that he got angry for rejecting his proposal and she too taunted back furiously that you only do things and expect me to act according to you.
Here Bondita is hell worried. Nothing is happening as she planned..now what to do. She should go and ask that suketu for another idea
Anirudh also started arguing back to Anita that he says openly Whatever is there in mind. He never likes these kind of things (refering to Love letter)
Just then Suketu met them on the way much to increase his anger. He too saw from distance only and understood that Bondita's Patibabu and Anita masterni are fighting and Bondita is looking in tension that means something might have happened may be related to the love letters
He came and wished Good morning Masterni , Hi Bondita.. Anirudh immediately shouted on Suketu what making everyone flinch.
He is highly disgusted at one side this Anita had written love letter and showing attitude Infront of him and trying to prove that he is at fault and other side this Suketu no no kahani wala Suketu came and telling hi to Bondita. Everyone are trying to separate Bondita from me in their ways.
Anita shouted: what is your problem Mr
Avinash? You are a horrible person. I really pity on your wife whoever it may be. God ! Save her and give her patience to handle him
Anirudh: what do you think of yourself ? How dare you speak about Bondita like this ?
Bondita and Suketu looked tensed. Anita said : hello Mr. Avinash ! I am telling about your wife not about Bondita. Don't react in hyper way as if Bondita is your wife. Huh! She is a clever girl and would never chose a person who shouts like a loud speaker like you as her life partner.
Anirudh became extremely furious and Suketu grasped it, he diverted Anita that he had a doubt and please help him and took Anita away.
Anirudh is still fuming and Bondita convinced him that he can't get angry on her like this because she is Surendra sir friend's daughter. So for sir sake and for her sake he had to control his anger
He hardly controlled it and left to court asking her to take care of herself and stay away from her masterni.
Bondita told herself : Unnecessarily Birristera babu and Anita masterni had went into loggerheads because of her. Now what to do.
In class room after class Bondita told Suketu that his plan is a super flop and they both got into tiff because of these love letters.
He then gave her greeting card idea to make greeting card with cardboard with greeting card in heart shape and write I love you and put it in their rooms. May be they get impressed.
She told that next day they have exam and after exam she will implement it.
After she left Binod discussed with his friends that all these won't work we are wasting our time.
Suketu told that it will work and he will leave her.
Binod: what guarantee is there that she will come for us? What if her husband take away back to their village.? What will we get if he Leave her? What if her burden comes on our shoulders?
Suketu also worried about it and Binod told : See all we want is to finish matter with her. For that why all these cheap plans.I have another plan that let us take her to hotel which is newly constructing by my dad with his partner chandrachur dada.
Suketu: what will we get by taking her to hotel?
Binod: yaar my dad and Chandrachur dada are building that hotel to please angrezi people. There are some secret rooms for angrezi officers where they bring girls forcely and drag them into bedrooms and .. did you get it
Suketu eyes are widened and he asked in return that means shall we take Bondita secretly and.. he smirked sheepishly
Binod: haa yaar why to waste time and get into unnecessary rifts?
Suketu: Fine we will plan it after exam because she we can't meet her during exams
Binod : By intoxication..
Suketu nodded.
That evening Bondita had secretly put greeting card in her Patibabu room first and then went to Anita house but this time Anita had caught her red handed.
She asked furiously: what is this Bondita? Why are you acting like messenger to that Avinash? What is your age and your situation? You are here to study , not to carry letters and greeting cards of that egoistic person (refering to Anirudh)
Bondita felt sad and folded hands infront of Anita and said with tears : Masterni please don't talk like that. He is really a nice person masterni. He is not egoistic. He is an idealistic person, respects women. Please masterni. Please accept him. I fold my hands infront of you. Both of you look made for each other.
Anita reprimanded Bondita by showing her hand as accusing: Are you crazy Bondita? Why are you doing this? I didn't expect this kind of behaviour from you.
Bondita is still convincing her that she only had made this greeting card to make them United. He doesn't know anything about it. Believe me. Shotti
Anita looked at her as unbelievable and still felt that Avinash/ Anirudh is only using her to do this.
Anita mother came there and silently listening it and Anita is about to blurt that: Bondita you know nothing of me. Actually my marriage ..
and she looked at door where her mother had made sound. Anita looked at her mother who is shooking her head as no, don't reveal anything
Anita seriously asked Bondita to go away from here, not to bring these kind of proposals again and Bondita left sadly with tears.
Anita sat with disappointment and disgust, her mother came to her and she asked her mother that why didn't you allow me to tell that I am engaged to Kuldeep
Anita mother: We have to speak but not to this Bondita but to you and kuldeep. Actually I spoke with him about your marriage 20 days before only and he started here
Anita : maa what are you saying
Her mother :It's enough Anita. Single woman becomes a topic and target for everyone . Not only this Bondita but Damini ji is also trying to pair you with her nephew Avinash and I don't want that to happen. Do you know in starting she doesn't like you at all, always made fun of you because you are educated and working girl. But after she tasted your food she wants to make you her house bahu by pairing you with Avinash and even spoke inauspiciously that kuldeep will come or not and don't raise your hope on boys who went to vilayat and all ...
And that Avinash at one side he pretends to be naive but other side he is after this Bondita. I believe that something is going on in between that Avinash and Bondita.
Anita: maa what are you saying? Without knowing anything
Her mother: Truth Anita. I have felt it. Anyway leave about them. All I want is you have to get married soon with kuldeep
Anita : Maa, but you and baba your responsibility..
Her mother: Forget about us. We will go to ashram after your Marriage but enough of this. But we both can never be happy by looking at you staying alone .
Anita tried to argue but her mother firmly told that she and her baba had already discussed this with Surendra bhaisahab and kuldeep is coming. By Tomorrow maximum he will be here. Surendra bhaisahab had went to pick up kuldeep
There Bondita is crying in her room. Thakuma asked with signals : what happened?
She narrated everything and Thakuma glared seriously at her. Bondita inner conscious know that she is at fault she then narrated her inner turmoil and became emotional and broken from Inside because of this age gap issue and slept in lap of Thakuma to find solace. Even latter also shedded tears and prayed Durga maa to give her strength to her old body to tell that how much her Patibabu loves her.
She had seen many times at Many nights that he secretly sneaking into her room to see Bondita when she is sleeping and told to her sleeping figure that he loves her so much and won't go away from her even if she send him away.
By his words she also understood that he had taken her for granted in past many times and want to reform himself and willing to give her a normal happy life along with making her highly educated
But this foolish girl is trying to tie his knot with another woman and planning to bring a sautan for her. Every girl feels possessive of her husband and this girl ..what to do.
She prayed Durga maa deeply that she need one last chance to reform everything in her house. She know that she dont deserve to be called as human but still this chance is not for hers. But for this pure soul Bondita who had done service to her selflessly. After she got paralysis attack everyone including helpers had considered her as burden and everyone had done service to her reluctantly with a disgusting face
After her son Only Bondita and now her Patibabu had treated her as human being and started speaking with her affectionately. She even used to feed sweets and if she spoiled her clothes Bondita had done service without keeping Disgusting face.
So she want to pay back the Little angel favours by making her unite with her Patibabu. And also for Damini too she wanted to fall on her bahu feet, apologize and beg her to mend her ways not to follow her foot steps blindly and just slept silently.

She had prepared well for exam and thought that she had to win in exam and if she scored well she will ask him to marry her masterni as gift to her success.
She only went to Anirudh and asked can you drop me in school and pick me up after exam.
He said with smile : sure Bondita
While going she said : if I write well in exam I will ask you a gift in advance and you have to give me
He said : Ofcourse Barrister babu Bondita. Today only I will give you treat
She said : Not treat barrister Babu but promise me that you will do whatever I ask.
Bondita calling him Barrister babu is like punching him. He is worried about what gift she will ask.
He kept a clause before her that : Bondita a gift should not only give happiness to the person who takes but also to the person who gives.
Bondita: Meaning?
Anirudh: I mean to say that you won't ask anything crazily right.
Bondita: whatever I ask I always think of your happiness Patibabu
Anirudh: But my happiness is always with you Bondita
She looked at him with a fluttering heart but again controlling her feelings. Just then bell rang and he made her rush into school. While going into gate she said loudly: Patibabu I will be waiting for you here. You have to come here by 11o clock to pick me up.
He also said : ok Bondita all the best for your exam and both waved hands and she left inside
Suketu and his friends saw this and told that I have made everything ready in hotel. And also got intoxicated medicine

Meanwhile in these days Taposh friend Vansh had spied on Anirudh and found that he is staying with fake name as Avinash Ghosh Damini nephew and informed everything to Taposh, who is shocked and told that : he is not my cousin Taposh at all
Vansh : How do you know? You only told me that You haven't seen your maternal grandparents family
Taposh: I have seen them Vansh. After me and my wife separating from my parents baba only gave their address and met them. Right now my cousin Avinash is working in Bombay in Roy Chowdhary enterprises. And here another person came with my cousin's name. That means there is something happening in my parents house. I have to react immediately
Taposh started panicking for the security of his family members and imagined worst things that fake avinash and Bondita may be burglars or any fraud persons.. he tried to contact his father but he learnt that his father went out of station and worried more of his mother and Thakuma safety
Next day (when Bondita went to school to write exam) he met his police friend along with Vansh and filed a complaint.
That day phone rang and Anirudh lifted. It's Surendra from other side. He requested Anirudh to call Anita and Anirudh reluctantly went to their house and called her telling that Pischi moshai made a call for you.
Anita hurriedly came and spoke and kuldeep is also in line.
She became Highly excited and emotional to listen her fiance voice after many days. He told that within an hour he will be infront of her
She is telling with tears: I will be waiting for you and disconnected the phone.
Anirudh just saw and wondered that why is she sobbing and offered her a napkin near by and she was already under bad impression about him and bursted on him for using Bondita to send love letters and manipulating Bondita
Anirudh took Bondita's side and argued that my Bondita is a gem. Don't you dare to speak a word against her.
Thakuma is panicking in room and trying to move. Her movements have started unknowingly
Anita : My Bondita, how dare you to claim that she is your girl. (Widening her eyes she said) Now I understood you are a big flirt. You have manipulated Bondita and sending love letters for me through her.
Anirudh started arguing and before truths are blurted Damini came back and asked on what point are they arguing
Just then Taposh entered with Police and with his friend Vansh and also with his wife Neelam who is in second trimester.
Damini is surprised to see her son Taposh and his wife in her house after 2 years .
Taposh came to Anirudh and told Inspector: arrest this fellow Inspector Saab. He is a cheat fraud and came here with my cousin Avinash Ghosh name and cheating my family members
Damini and Anita are shocked.
Damini with tears: Taposh..taposh what are you saying
Taposh came and took his mother's blessings and told that he is not mamaji beta Avinash but a fraud, a cheat
Anirudh is shooking his head.
Taposh had shown the photo of his cousin with his parents to Damini and told: This is our Avinash maa
Damini recognised her dada and boudi and real Avinash is resembling her brother and shattered that an imposter played with her emotions.
She recollected her husband telling on first day that he is not your nephew Avinash and she joking that : why are you talking in such a way that an imposter came here.
Damini is about to faint and unexpectedly Neelam had caught her calling: Maa ji sambhal ke
Damini couldn't say anything and looked with tears
Anirudh tried to argue that he will explain everything but Taposh shouted on him to keep quiet , I understood everything and blamed him for playing with their emotions.
Thakuma came out of wheel chair and slowly coming out of room catching walls.
Damini also came and held his collar and asking him with tears : what injustice did we do to you? Why did you play with our emotions like this.
Anirudh: Pischi
Damini raised hand but Thakuma came out and shouted with vague voice : stop all of you. Just stop .
Everyone are shocked to see Thakuma coming on her own out of the room and talking to them including Surendra at the entrance door who had just came with kuldeep
Taposh: Thakuma ..you and came to her hurriedly with love
But Thakuma told: Don't tell anything to that boy. He is Bondita's Patibabu who came for her and had no intentions to cheat anyone .
Everyone are shocked to listen this.
