Thakuma (Damini saas) told showing to Anirudh: Don't say anything to him he is Bondita's Patibabu who came for her and had no intentions to play with anyone here.
Surendra entered into house furiously and shouted: what the hell is happening here?
He slightly understood what could have happened and he doesn't want to create scene infront of kuldeep. So turned to Anita and told her slowly: Beta kuldeep is here. He traveled long distance. Take him to your house and after he get refreshed and had food please come back.
Anita nodded to Surendra hoping that Avinash will be arrested or thrown out from here and she happily went to meet Kuldeep.
Both held hands with tears of joy and went to their portion . Kuldeep is turning back again and again looking at Anirudh trying to recollect that where had he seen him and left with Anita
He came to his mother and happily held her and she embraced her son and both shedded tears of happiness and longing. She could only say : due to Bondita only I ..and she couldn't tell anymore.
Surendra nodded happily and Anirudh also shedded tears remembering that his kaka is also recovered miraculously when he is harmed by soudamini.
Taposh felt guilty for misunderstanding Bondita and came to conclusion that may be this fake Avinash is only at fault
Turning to Inspector, Surendra asked seriously: why did you come here Inspector Saab
Taposh interfered, came and took his baba blessings and told that he had seen this man (pointing to Anirudh) and the caretaker of Thakuma Bondita had been going together outside got doubt in them and enquired and found that this man is using maama's beta identity. That's why..
Surendra: you should have asked me before taking this step Taposh . Do you think that your father had become old and will allow anyone so easily?
Taposh: Sorry baba I don't mean to hurt you..
Surendra mocked : By the way from how long are you concerned about us? You haven't even turned back to us atleast spoke with me after you left
Neelam silently came and about to take Surendra blessings and he stopped her in middle and kept his hand on her head without any expression and said: khush raho bahu. Don't bend in this state.
Neelam said emotionally : we always worry about you and maa. But didn't have courage to come infront of you.
Taposh with tears : we came back soon baba I have been staying near by and enquiring your details through Murli kaka and Ramani dadi and looking at you secretly. whether you believe it or not, me and Neelam are always worried about you, maa and Thakuma..
The other thing which I was worried is this man Bondita's Patibabu had enquired about me in the company where I am working and eager to know about my whereabouts. I came to know through vansh and that also increased my doubt and felt insecured.
Anirudh: Taposh ji I don't have any bad intention. Infact Surendra ji had given shelter to my Bondita, taking care of her like a daughter and making her educated in his school without fee. That's why I too want to pay back my gratitude by uniting your family and I don't have any selfish motives behind it
Thakuma: Haa Taposh Because of Bondita and this boy - her Patibabu only I have recovered miraculously. They both are very good.
Surendra told sorry inspector it's a misunderstanding, this person and his wife are our family members only , you please go and sent police back Vansh had accompanied them telling Taposh that he will manage.
But a constable had seen suspiciously and secretly checked the photo he had in pocket and confirmed that he is the same person who Kalindi Das had given an unofficial complaint to search for him. So he decided to inform her as soon as possible and left.
Later In Surendra house:
Damini asked her husband with tears that why did he let them stay here and play with her emotions. Even he is also not bothered about her feelings.
She asked Anirudh holding his shirt collar that : if you have come for your wife you could have told it openly and left with her. Why did you dig our past and played with my emotions? Is it not called as selfishness?
Anirudh explained that how he got to know about this and at that time Bondita is too stubborn and is not coming with him so he had done this and apologized for his act
Still Damini had blasted on everyone including Taposh and his wife for secretly enquiring and for not coming home
Damini saas had come and held her hands and apologized for all her mistakes emotionally and asked her to leave this bitterness in life, don't make a beautiful life a living hell with unnecessary egoistic feelings. Damini is looking at her shockingly and stood still. She never expected in her life that her saas will speak lovingly to her.
Thakuma then told Damini recollecting something: I was 20 years old when I became widow and Surendra was very small. To live alone in this cruel and orthodox, superstitious world in Between my young and ogled looks jethjis , devars I have habituated this bitter behaviour so that no man inside and outside ogle at me fearing of my behaviour, and to reduce harrassment from my in-laws also I have never spoken softly with them . But unknowingly that became my nature and immersed deeply in my blood.
It's true that I have given a painful life to you. Because of my atrocities you have suffered a lot , lost your children before Taposh and in return for this hatred and harshness what did I get?
I have suffered with paralysis became a living corpse. Don't turn like me Damini bahu. Don't turn evil like me. Change your ways and turn like my old Damini who is very sensitive in heart. Accept everyone with a broad mind. Every human is an embodiment of good and bad qualities. We have to accept it. Here everyone are your dear ones no one have cheated you but gave love to you in their ways. See at everyone
She had wrapped her hand around Damini shoulder lovingly (who is trembling with guilty feeling when her saas reminded her sensitive heart) and took her to Taposh and Neelam and told:
See Your son Taposh and his wife are worried about you and Surendra that's why even after your harsh accusations and harrasment they didn't leave you staying near by and finding your welfare. Just only see love in them.
She took to Surendra and said: I think I need not tell you na bahu that how much your husband loves you. Whether you believe it or not he had always been loving you from my heart and this mother heart knows her son well.
Damini started moving inside her heart . Thakuma continued:
Also our Bondita - she might have joined as caretaker here, but she is very sweet person. Just because Murli and Ramani had given shelter for one day she had taken share in their financial problems without any blood relation and had been helping them all these time by Doing service to me. She had respected you and obeyed you from her heart. She had even endured your taunts many times.
Anirudh felt happy and proud that Bondita won Thakuma heart along with Surendra impression
She took Damini to Anirudh and told:
He (Anirudh) - her patibabu he looked like he belongs to rich family but still he came for her and trying hard not to hurt either of us for their problems. He may have lied about his identity but I don't think he have hurt you and Surendra in anyway and played with your feelings. Infact he had showered love on you like Taposh. Am I correct or not
Damini recollected everything and is in thoughts. Thakuma counseled affectionately that not to leave her soft nature and follow this cruel saas footsteps and accept everyone with open heart. Hatred won't give anything in life , what is the use of human life if atleast one person won't shed tears for us after we leave this world
Damini realised her mistakes and misdeeds, apologized her saas and her husband, accepted her son and bahu by embracing them and felt happy that Neelam is expecting.
Just then Anita and kuldeep came back when Anirudh is apologizing everyone for Playing with them and told that he is Barrister Anirudh Roy Chowdhary who belong to Tulsipur zamindar family.
(Kuldeep eyes are widened and rubbed his forehead thinking of something and Anita is looking at him)
Due to my cruel act, rigid behaviour Bondita had left me and came here breaking ties with me when she left I have realised my mistake so I also came in search of her and situations had forced me to stay near her so he had used your (Damini) nephew identity.
Taposh held Anirudh's hands and apologized him for this misunderstanding and insult. Anirudh had forgiven him
Kuldeep had recollected Anirudh and immediately asked : you are Anirudh..I mean Anirudh Roy Chowdhary , you came from London right? You have studied barristry there . Am I correct?
Anirudh looking at kuldeep trying to recollect who he is told: Ha..You?
Kuldeep excitingly said: Anirudh babu, I am kuldeep. Three years back I had been humiliated by Britishers in London and you came to my rescue, argued with them that Indians are quite capable in business management and have recommended me to one of the Indian based company there, argued with them and pressurised then to give a chance
Anirudh also recollected that he had helped a person before leaving to India who is enthusiastic to prove himself in one Indian based company and they are rejecting him. He had raised voice to give a chance.
Anirudh then said : haa I remember..you are Deep.. kuldeep right?
Kuldeep: Haa Anirudh babu. Because of you only I quickly got job and able to pay my father's debts. I have thanked you many times in my heart and now I am thanking you personally
Anirudh: That's fine..by the way ..
You are here
Anita asked with surprise: Is he the person whom you have seriously mentioned in your letters in starting days of vilayat
Kuldeep excitingly said : yes and introduced Anita as his fiancee.
Anirudh is shocked and asked seriously that when you are engaged how can I propose me
This had shocked everyone there.
Anita also reverted with her fierce tone: It's not me infact you proposed me and reprimanded that he had used his innocent wife Bondita.
Surendra family is looking confused. Kuldeep is changing glances between Anita and Anirudh and not understanding anything .
Surendra came forward and asked what happened between them and asked them tell what exactly is their problem
Both Anita and Anirudh told that I will prove and left to their rooms. Everyone are confused.
Thakuma grasped what is going to happen and she also slowly moving to her room
Surendra asked : Maa now where are you going?
Thakuma: To clear some misunderstandings to both of them.
She asked her grandson Taposh to come. She had shown some paper bundle on top of wardrobe which Bondita had kept the story papers bundle. Thakuma had seen Bondita crying by reading those papers. She asked Taposh to bring them down and give it to her Patibabu.
Taposh climbed by moving bed near by and trying to get those papers.
Anita had brought love letter, greeting card and shown to Surendra and everyone and accused that Anirudh Roy Chowdhary had used his wife Bondita to flirt her, sent love letter greeting card through her only. Because of him only kuldeep is forced to leave his work in middle and came here.
Anirudh also brought love letter, greeting card and shown it to Surendra and told that Anita had only used his wife. They both started arguing.
Thakuma stopped and told that neither of them are at fault , Bondita only had written love letters to you both.
Anirudh didn't belive and asked : Thakuma what are you saying? At one side you are acknowledging her service and kindness and other side you are..
Thakuma: No beta I am not accusing her. Bondita is like Durga maa to me. But whatever I am telling is also true. since few days Bondita is Crying and it looked like someone had brainwashed her that she was not perfect for you and she was influenced.
She was the one who is bringing you both closer but with a heavy heart . She wanted to Make you another marriage and wanted you to move on
Anirudh didn't believe and asked : why will Bondita do that, Thakuma? (Recollecting her possessiveness when he pretended that he is going to London with soudamini, and her confrontation on post wedding rituals of fake marriage, he said) She always feel possessive of me and would Never like anyone coming in between us.
Anita recollected Bondita's words and now grasped that Bondita herself is only bringing both of them closer without Anirudh's knowledge and she revealed what Bondita told her previous day how she literally begged her to accept you. She sweared on her parents
Anirudh is devastated to listen this. He too recollected her praising her masterni more than necessary and looking into his eyes hopefully to accept her masterni positive side.
Taposh brought a bundle of papers and gave to his Thakuma and asked: Is this what you are asking me to bring Thakuma?
She said : yes ....yes...this one only from 4-5 days nearly she is weeping at night time by reading this and kept papers bundle in Anirudh's hands
He had hurriedly flipped and read Suketu story. In between papers there are tears fallen and letters are not seen properly. But he grasped the bottom line of story is age gap.
Heroine is almost raised and taken care by hero when she is insane but she couldn't accept him back when she became mentally fine and hero only United her with her new love interest.
He is becoming ambiguous and trying to decipher what exactly Bondita is influenced from this story. Is she thinking that she herself is not a correct pair for him or ..he is not correct pair for her.
Is she feeling ashamed of having him an elder person as her Patibabu or feeling inferior complex that she young girl is wife to an elder person ? What might be she thinking?
Is she feeling suffocated in this marriage or assuming that he is feeling suffocated..what exactly is going on in her mind. How to know?
Thakuma told that yesterday Bondita cried sleeping in my lap telling that she is doing for her Patibabu welfare. He had to be happy and have better future (ujjwal bhavishya) without me that's why she is doing all these
(Author's explanation: In previous chapter Bondita only told this much crying in Thakuma lap not that suketu told all these and all)
Anirudh is in thoughts and trying to connect dots about her behaviour
Surendra came and took papers and flipped Pages and told gritting his teeth that this Suketu had not mend his ways so far what to do with this fellow
Anirudh asked : what are you telling?
Surendra told that writing love stories of his own style by reading and refering English novels, magazines and making girls of school fall for him is his hobby. Despite of how many times he was given warning and suspended he and his gang are still not changing his ways. 2 Girl students of previous years had fallen for his and his friends words, cheap acts and spoiled their studies and got into trouble and left middle of studies.
Anirudh came to conclusion that she might be in trouble or in misunderstanding he had to find out very smartly what is in her mind unlike previous times he should not shout on her and make her suffocated. Whatever he might have to listen from her mouth he had to be patient...very very patient.
Just then Wall clock bell gave 11 rings indicating that it's 11.00 am . Bondita exam might be finished and told that she will be waiting for him
He told Surendra that he will go and pick her up and talk to her. Surendra told that he will also come and if Suketu and his friends are involved in manipulating Bondita this time he won't spare and will detain them from school forever .
He thanked and started to move. Damini called Anirudh and told emotionally that : you both should come back to home soon
Anirudh nodded with emotional tears and smiled and then left.

At the same time in school Bondita had written exam and waiting for her Patibabu in school. Binod had brought the intoxicated leaves medicine and slowly coming from back.
Suketu kept her in talks and started discussing about her Patibabu and masterni love story. She told that she can't play this hide and seek yesterday masterni caught hold of her and reprimanded her. so she decided that she will speak directly
Suketu is observing her and Binod who is slowly approaching with medicine in his kerchief and suddenly kept it on her nose. She realised that something is wrong and immediately held hand of the person making some of the powder fall on ground and when she turned back she found that it's Binod.
Sleep is coming but still she is trying to say something and next moment fell on ground.
Binod to Suketu: only some of the powder is only kept Chandrachur dada asked me to keep full Powder and bring her there to hotel
Suketu: Hey! That means you discussed this plan to other person
Binod: haa what to do? He is expert in trapping innocent country girls with words and take them to hotel and ..make them do that forcefully. No one knows this
I have seen him discussing with baba many times and I have befriended with him to know his techniques and took his help . He too helped me in this .
But I think only few quantity is applied she will wake up soon
Suketu: Then we will hurry up fast. Once we take her to hotel it will be difficult for her to escape. You have brought car na
Binod nodded and they both with Niranjan help, lifted her took silently to car and made her place in car
Richa saw this and asked what are they doing. They told that with much difficult they got this chance and taking her to hotel and asked her not to reveal anything. She agreed
After they left in 5 mins Anirudh and Surendra came in car and searching for Bondita everywhere in class.
Just then George dragged her near to bushes and started misbehaving with her by touching her everywhere.
Richa didn't expect this all of a sudden she told that it's school and he is not bothering and started keeping his hand inside her clothes and started pinching.
She shouted to stop she wants smooth treatment but not harsh wild behaviour. He is not in mood to go as per her wish and don't like she rejecting his ways. So he pulled her hair and said : Don't show your attitude Infront of me. Just let me do my work. I am not interested in knowing your bloody comfort.
And started attacking her neck ruthlessly. Richa is shivered and understood her love Life with him. He is really harsh on her. She deserve it for selecting such a guy who looked stylish from outside but an animal from inside..
When he is moving towards her bosom she just screamed for help.
Anirudh who is searching for Bondita listened to it and came running to bushes side
George slapped her hardly and made her fell on ground and hovered on her and she is shouting to move away.
Anirudh saw this and pulled George out and started hitting him thick and thin. And brought outside bushes and thrown him on school ground
George is trying to tell that he is not at fault only she..but still Anirudh didn't allow to talk and kept on hitting on his ribs.
Surendra saw this and came there and stopped Anirudh and asked what's happening.
Richa came adjusting clothes but still her state could tell anyone what had happened to her.
Anirudh narrated everything and Surendra grabbed his collar seriously. George told that she only called him to bushes for romancing with him, she is the one who is at his back all the time she is the one who had proposed him and called his friends who are passing by. They told that Richa only ge after George and Suketu and gang helped her to make him fall for her.
Anirudh is worried that how bad had they impacted Bondita's mindset and she is not seen any where.
He then counselled George and other boys that how can you use cheap words on her just because she took initiative and proposed him. Just like animals will you attack girls and fulfill your lusts and has hit George badly and made him realise that she just expressed her feeling that doesn't mean that she is characterless and you can do whatever you want. If you guys keep thinking like this girls won't come out and kept behind closed doors.
Surendra asked George and his friends to bring his parents tomorrow else he won't give him exam marks certificate
Anirudh brought water from pot and gave to her to drink. She thanked him by folding hands and he asked her did you see Bondita anywhere.
She asked how do you know her and he told that he is her husband.
She decided to help him what if those idiots also do the same thing that George tried to do to her and revealed that they have taken to new hotel and gave the address. Surendra also listened to it and both rushed to hotel.
She then forgotten to tell that they intoxicated her and then bit her tongue after they left.
__
Police constable who had seen Anirudh had passed the information to Senior police officer and he immediately called Calcutta police and gave the information that Anirudh Roy Chowdhary is in Siliguri in school principal house and Bondita is not seen anywhere but they heard taking her name.
The senior police officer of Calcutta had decided to inform this to Kalindi Das personally and then left to her bungalow
