Anirudh and Bondita shared a lip kiss passionately, immersed in their love deeply and broken their kiss after a long time .
She felt shy and hidden herSelf in his chest . He too smiled and carressed her.
He then made her sit and he slept on her lap feeling too emotional and tears fell on her lap.
What happened Patibabu ? Why are you crying? - She asked worriedly wiping his tears
He turned towards her in lap and told : Nothing Bondita... just remembered maa in this moment. That's why I am being clingy to you
She smiled and carressed his hair gently and told: Maa is looking at you from sky and smiling at you. If you are upset she will also become upset by seeing you. Do you want that to happen
He shooked and clinged to her more telling: Sorry Bondita today I am becoming more emotional and clingy to you.
She also got tears but immediately wiped herself and his and told : ok ok it's not the time to become emotional and keep on shedding tears but to smile and celebrate our happy moments. Come on Patibabu smile and shown her smile signature. He too smiled back
She then took him to the table arranged with cake and made him cut the cake and sang happy birthday for him and asked him how did I sing..
He tried to make fun of her by catching his ear that : Aah it's paining and started running
She chased him and puffed her cheeks he chuckled and caught her kissed her cheeks and then fed her from back side in back hug and told huskily: your cake and your song both are perfect...
They then came down and she had shown the suit she had selected for him.
He complemented her taste and she requested to wear this for tomorrow evening party . he agreed
That next day they had done poushya sankranti puja and everyone blessed ANIRUDH.
Somnath wished his brother and went to morning duty and assured that he will be back by afternoon and will attend for evening party he told that his friends are coming for evening party
As per Anirudh's advice Somnath is not getting into arguments with Tupur and speaking with her normally.
Tupur is also speaking with Somnath only if necessary on Bondita and Catherine advice.
On Anirudh's advice Catherine is giving her Little works which won't strain her body like stitching, interior designing , learning about English Hindi letters and keeping her busy .
And through that she is creating a new identity. So Tupur complaints and displeasure on Somnath is gradually reducing. She is not passing displeasing looks towards Somnath when he is going to hospital or for combined studies.
Somnath is also surprised to see this new change in Tupur from last 2-3 days . Now she almost stopped crying for every minute reasons and not bothering him much.
Bhatuk is busy in his phone calls and chitchatting with his friends and packing things . Next day only his trip is there.
Das family came from out of station and they too came to Roy Chowdhary family and wished him. He took everyone's blessings in sasural also .
Rimjhim is shocked to see her daughter bonding well with Bondita like own sisters and Tapur also joined them happily. Catherine is pampering all three girls
Trilochan asked das family to stay here Throughout the day for lunch and also for evening party
Kalindi initially rejected and felt embarrassed to stay for lunch with daughters sasural people but ANIRUDH insisted to stay as he and Somnath are their sons too. Won't they attend for their son's birthday party
Binoy also declared that ANIRUDH is going to take charge as Managing director for half of Roy Chowdhury companies..
Rimjhim fumed with Jealousy listening to this and what wondered her is her own daughter Tupur is looking at Anirudh and Bondita with serene smile and appreciating her jhetani. Why is her daughter not fuming with angry?
Bondita is arranging for lunch and keeping plates on dining table. Anirudh is busy in his phone call and Trilochan kalindi and Shomik are busy in their talks. Binoy is speaking with his office manager and Bansilal. Catherine and sumati are talking affectionately at one side.. Catherine is speaking in broken Hindi and sumati is struggling to understand and Tapur is communicating between them
Rimjhim came and grabbed Bondita aside and Confronted her for not maintained distance with her daughter your bad eye will catch my daughter and the upcoming grandson . Do you want to kill my grandson
Bondita asked her sternly to leave she won't spare if anyone tried to punish her Unnecessarily and tried to come out of Rimjhim grip but latter stubbornly raised hand on Bondita.
Tupur just then entered and held her mother's hand and stopped her and asked : How dare you raise hand on my sister? And jerked her hand away. With sudden moment of hands Rimjhim almost felt electric shock to her hand alongwith mental shock to her brain
She looked at her daughter incredulously. With Tupur's loud voice everyone's attention fell on them and they all came there at dining table
Rimjhim told her daughter without acknowledging that everyone are present and listening: Beta! This Bondita is not auspicious for you and your son. If her bad sight catches your baby will become girl .
How many times did I ask you to stay away And out of ignorance you are Bonding with her . She is not good for your baby beta. Try to understand
Tupur cut her mother in middle and told : Maa! Bondita is my sister my jhetani and now friend too. I won't spare if you say a word against her
Trilochan: SAMDHAN JI ! HOLD YOUR TONGUE..IS THIS THE WAY YOU TEACH GHALAT SANSKAR TO OUR TUPUR BAHU BEING HER MOTHER?
Rimjhim got Startled and turned around and now scared to see that she got exposed
KALINDI also came and twisted Rimjhim hand and asked : Your tail won't get straightened na despite of how much I ask you to mend your ways you still behave in your cunning way .
What are you teaching to their daughter in law?
Anirudh saw a slight red scar on Bondita's hand and came to her and asked are you ok and carressed her scar
She told with a smile : I am fine Patibabu....kaki thought that she is hurting me but not realising that she is stooping down and losing her respect.
Anirudh: KAKI! YEH KYA TARIKHA HAI . AAP BONDITA KO USI KE GHAR MEIN USKO CHOT PAHUNCHANE KI KOSHISH KI AUR MEIN BARDASHT KARUNGA...AAP NE AISA SOCH BHI KAISE KIYA..
Rimjhim is fuming with angry and jealousy by seeing Anidita Bonding and Somnath not staying with Tupur like this .
Anirudh: AND WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING? THAT BONDITA'S SIGHT IS A BAD SIGHT AND IF BONDITA SEES BOY WILL TURN INTO GIRL, RIGHT?
WHAT AN IGNORANCE YOU HAVE KAKI? BABY'S GENDER WILL ALREADY BE DECIDED AT THE TIME OF THAT BABY PARENTS' CONSUMMATION. NEITHER MOTHER NOR FATHER CAN DO ANYTHING WITH IT.
THEN WHAT CAN THAT BABY'S MAASI CUM KAKI CAN CHANGE? WITH THIS IGNORANCE ONLY NA YOU LOST YOUR THIRD CHILD?
(Author's explanation: baby's gender depends on men's chromosomes and that is not proven during that pre independence era so I wrote as per that era educated people way of thinking that neither man nor woman can decide it )
Rimjhim looked at him as if she got hurt and understood that it is revealed by Bondita only and looked seriously at her
Anirudh : GROW UP KAKI.. WE ROY CHOWDHARY FAMILY MEMBERS DON'T DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN BOY AND GIRL. AM I RIGHT KAKA ? AM I RIGHT BABA?
Binoy: Haa Anirudh! Infact the only thing I miss in my life is that I couldn't have a girl. If I gave a granddaughter atleast my wish will be finally fulfilled and wanted to pamper her..
Rimjhim ji! Did we ever express or force Tupur that we want boy only. Why are you spoiling your daughter's mind..
Trilochan too confirmed that yes as a part of general and habituated talks 'waris' word slips from my mouth but that doesn't mean that I always expect our house bahus to give birth to boys only .
We all want girl child also infact we badly want choti Durga maa to take birth in our home I wanted to listen her giggles and cute talks and wanted to see her kanyadaan.
It is written in holy scriptures that doing kanyadaan is most virtuous thing in this world and gives more virtue than having a boy child in family
KALINDI: Rimjhim! Is this enough or do you like to get more insult . You have Insulted your daughter's sasural people. Go and apologise them
Rimjhim kept her face as insulted and not moving. Kalindi insisted and Shomik also asked her to go and apologise Trilochan samdhiji
She went and apologized Trilochan he told stomping his cane not to me .but for our bahu.
Rimjhim felt it as highly Insulted and hissing angrily.
Bondita told let it be ksj. She know that kaki won't apologise her wholeheartedly and as tit for tat she may show this angry on her mother and she don't want that to happen
But Trilochan insisted: No bahu we can't accept any injustice . Today is poushya sankranti - an auspicious day and on top of it it's your Patibabu birthday and he is starting new work this day. And I don't want your smile should fade out throughout the day at any cost.
Rimjhim samdhanji! Are you going to apologise or not.
Rimjhim came and folded hands infront of Bondita told : please forgive me Bondita .
Bondita removed her folded hands and embraced her and told in whispering tone : Kaki! Never in my life I haven't wished elders fold their hands infront of me. Whether you believe or not it's true . If you can't love me no problem atleast don't hate me . I am telling you with my experience hatred won't gain anything in life. It will only make us live alone. Tupur understood this. I wish you also understand this lesson soon.
(Rimjhim is fuming with anger inside)
Today I am giving you clarity on one thing..don't forget this ..my life is different and Tupur life is different. As we stay together and belong to same house we have to share our responsibilities equally with love and mutual understanding and stay together. That's what we are doing.
We need not feel any competition between us. so please with these narrow minded thoughts neither Tupur can be happy nor I can be happy and if Either of us are unhappy our sasural will also be unhappy. Will that give good name to our mayka ? Tell me kaki.
Please don't keep any Unnecessary thoughts or fears and spoil your peace of mind and others peace of mind too . It's my humble request to you kaki.
Moreover today is my patibabu birthday and I don't want any disturbance on this auspicious day ..
She came out of embrace and told everyone come lets all have lunch . Today I will serve everyone and made everyone including Rimjhim also sit and served everyone.
ANIRUDH insisted Bondita also to sit. She told that place is not there Patibabu I will eat later ..I mean you don't worry I will eat very soon . Today you accompany everyone.
She know her Patibabu won't accept if she didn't join him in dining table. That's why she requested him to eat first today but he didn't listen and told nothing doing and asked Bihari to bring another chair and made her sit beside him and he fed her lovingly
Everyone in Roy Chowdhary family didn't bother their bonding as they got habituated kalindi and sumati are feeling happy but it looked wierd to Rimjhim .
After lunch She tried to fill Tupur ears but latter is changed alot she told her mother : Maa if we feel jealous of seeing others happiness we won't get that happiness forever in our life.
If you say one word against Bondita she will say that she will leave the house for me but with her ANIRUDH dada Bhatuk will also leave this house and go.
Ksj will feel bad and he will stop talking. Sasurji and Catherine maa will be Upset. Totally everyone will become sad. By snatching everyone's happiness what happiness will I get maa. Once again I am telling you don't give me Unnecessary advices
RIMJHIM: wah Tupur wah! today I became outsider to you and that Bondita became dear one to you. Fine.. fine go and do her Bhajan . Also learn one quality from her of how to tie husband to your pallu..
Tupur glared seriously.
Rimjhim mocked : Jhoot kaho toh Jaan Lelo..I am serious Tupur ..learn this quality..your husband will also circumbulate around you throughout the day and find out what black magic had she done on her husband
Tupur : Ofcourse maa ! Why won't I? Infact I have already learnt my lesson
Rimjhim is surprised and asked curiously what did she do to her Patibabu? Tell me
Tupur : I too don't know maa. Infact I am also searching for the same answer.
Like me she didn't show that she was highly Obedient and dedicated whenever she don't like anything she will openly oppose even ksj also .
But one thing I can say is she always behaves naturally. She always maintains her own identity and loves others wholeheartedly. She had left Jealousy, unnecessary competition with family members, inferiority and superiority complexes and is maintaining her natural character. At any cost she won't let her smile and positive hope drop and make others also smile and have that positive hope..
You also remember na one and half yest back Bondita and Anirudh Dada are having difference of opinions.
Bondita couldn't take the INJUSTICE her Patibabu tried to do and for that she didn't come and beg him but she took stand for herself.
In all stages she loved herself and that's why Anirudh dada also fallen for her. Also I can say one more thing confidently is He hadn't fallen for her beauty but for her soul and for her character.
I am also trying to learn these lessons from them whether I can change myself or not I don't know but If my baby comes and if it survives then I myself will place my baby in Bondita's hands and ask her to raise him or her . I will request her to Mould my baby like her
Rimjhim is unable to adjust this change in her daughter and went back to her home telling that she is feeling headache and won't attend evening function . Tupur also shooked her head.
Catherine Bondita and Anirudh had witnessed this from one side secretly they gave hifi to eachother for this. Bondita is shedding happy tears to see this much of change in her wicked sister and from other side Somnath had witnessed all this secretly and is surprised to see change in Tupur.
He know that Tupur had not seen him and no one are there with those mother and daughter also so there is no need to do drama but still Tupur is opposing her mother's ideologies.
The girl who always used to climb their common wall and reveal every sasural matter to her mayka today the same girl is speaking in favour of her sasural.
Somewhere he started feeling guilty and silently went to his room
______
That evening Trilochan had sent through Catherine three new sarees for Catherine herself and for Tupur and Bondita alongwith diamond sets .. Catherine and Bondita decked up Tupur who hesitatingly told why should I deck up for whom should I deck up.
Bondita signaled Catherine who smiled and Told: No Tupur don't say like that . You should deck up for yourself not for others. This thinking only should change. You should be for yourself first, love yourself..when you only can't love yourself why will others love you.
If others can't love you it is their fault not your fault. Why should you feel guilty for others IGNORANCE and carelessness. You should always be there for yourself
Catherine words made Tupur think about it. Yes If her husband doesn't love her it is his problem not hers . Somehow Catherine words filled her mind with positivity and she stood up confidently.
Bondita gave thums up to Catherine secretly and left from there to deck up herself in her room and while she is adjusting her saree pleats her Patibabu came from bathing just wrapped with towel and helped her. She smiled at him and her gaze fell on the mole he had on left arm and she went and touched the mole and carressed it.
He asked smilingly : what Bondita
She said : so far I haven't seen this mole Patibabu
He laughed and she told seriously: don't laugh I am serious.
He kept finger on his mouth
She again told sadly : Why didn't I observe this so far
He replied: we didn't go that far na and kissed her cheek
At the same time she got a call from her ksj down to come fast guests started coming. Look after refreshments
Anirudh sighed for the disturbance and she smiled and asked him to have patience today this function should be grand success come fast and ran to down to attend guests
Later ANIRUDH came down into function hall in blue suit with Spects and everyone are amazed to see this new change of dressing in him.
Binoy came and appreciated him and told that now I am able to see my shadow in you and embraced him..
Anirudh also smiled and hugged his father. Everyone wished him.
Board of directors and VIPs are coming to the party and wishing him.
Somnath and Bhatuk friends also came and wished Anirudh.
Sona too came and wished ANIRUDH with boque . He just gave formal smile and told thankyou..
She is entwining her hand with Somnath hand and trying to be over friendly with Somnath . For the first time today he is feeling uncomfortable with Sona presence . He didn't personally call her but she came and don't know why she is being this much friendly. Sona went and introduced herself to get Trilochan and Binoy and she took their blessings.
Trilochan didn't like Sona but as many VIPs and other Zamindars are coming everyone are busy in receiving them .
Anirudh is also worrying that why sona came to this party and will she create any problem. He is looking for Bondita to tell the problem so that she will atleast make sure that Tupur and sona won't meet but she is already busy in serving freshers and talking with guests in English and ordering servants to go and serve each guest as per their tastes
He saw Catherine maa is with Tupur and left out a breath of relief. He already discussed about Sona with Catherine and she is smart to keep her(Sona) in distance and he too got immersed with guests
Sona intentionally searched for Tupur and saw that she is sitting with Catherine . She went and introduced herself to Tupur as Somnath classmate and best friend and started speaking friendly with Tupur .
Before Catherine react At the same time Catherine is called by Binoy to receive a foreign client and she Went aside telling Tupur to sit carefully if she is not feeling comfortable she can go inside..
Tupur nodded and sona also spoken as reliable person that she will take care and moreover she is a gyneic doctor too
Everyone became busy in engaging foreign client and other people .
Sona provokingly told how close she is to somnath in College all her dreams are shattered on the day he got married to you and cried and still pretended that she is happy for both of them and wished all the best and left from there pretending to Tupur that she is leaving with heavy heart .
Tupur is shattered and heart broken to listen all this and controlling her tears she went back to her room
Sona came aside and smirked Recollecting Somnath words who once told about Tupur that if she is given mental peace of mind and taken extreme care she will be absolutely fine and chances are there that she and baby will survive else chances are 50-50.
She thought: By this Tupur will either lose her life or her baby and my line will be cleared and after she and Somnath are separated I will speak and sympathise with Somnath and enter his life permanently (and left from there)

While party is started here at the same time other side Rimjhim went to bangle store in the same street and buying bangles fuming inside for the insult she faced.
There at the same time entered mama mami (Sampoorna parents) with their potli into that street and speaking among themselves: It's been six months sampoorna met us . One complete day she took our help and asked me to lay down and later she hadn't shown her face. And now sending very little amount for us . Today I will take away all her jewellery.
Mama: Shhh..don't shout. What will people think?
Mami: let them think whatever they want. She is sending us amount very little and that amount will only fill our stomach and for clothing. But what about my kundan haar my kamarbandh . Who will give money for that?
Mama: we will ask her you don't worry and just then their gaze fell on Rimjhim who is bargaining for bangles ..
Shopkeeper is asking despite of being Roy Chowdhary relatives why are you arguing for paise.
Rimjhim is retaliating ; We are only Roy Chowdhary relatives but not Roy Chowdharyies and bad mouthing Them
Mami identified Rimjhim as devrani to sumati and shown it to her husband . They made fun of her among themselves who is arguing for paise and anaa and came to her introduced themselves.
She too recognised them and retorted: what is there to laugh in this
Mami: being Samdhan to Roy Chowdhary family you should maintain status. How can you bargain for every paise .. chi.. chi..oh Kali Maa! I can't understand why people behave like this
Rimjhim got angry and countered her back : you can mock me later on but what about you ...you are behaving in such a way that you are a part of Roy Chowdhary family
Mami told proudly: ofcourse we are ...don't you know our sampoorna is Roy Chowdhury family badi bahu and saas to your daughter and that Bondita also
Rimjhim bursted into laugh and made fun of her irritating mama mami and told: oh Kali Maa ! Where are you all these days? From which world did you come here? Do you think that your daughter sampoorna still belong to Roy Chowdhary family ? (And again laughed out loudly making mama mami look at her with horror she told in between mocking laugh) Now... your ...daughter had eloped with one boy gave divorce to Binoy samdhiji and going to marry that another man soon. Don't you know that where were you all these days and again laughed as mocking them
Mami shouted : what are you Blabbering? Have you lost mind
Rimjhim: Truth ...I am telling you truth only Didi. Your daughter sampoorna is now turned as a singer she herself gave divorce to her husband and going to marry another boy of her age.
Mama: our daughter....no she can't stoop such low..
Rimjhim: Haa true only...she can't stoop such low but someone made her to stoop to such cheap act
Mami held Rimjhim shoulders and asked furiously: who ? Who did that to my daughter?
Rimjhim : Bondita...
Mami: BONDITA?
Rimjhim: Haa Bondita only..she instigated her didi filled your daughter's brain with Vilaayati fitoor and provoked her to go with another man and made her free from the marriage with her sasurji on pretext of reforming her life creating her an identity but she in real thrown her away . It's the truth.
And her sasurji married a Vilaayati woman who doesn't know anything about traditions. So everyone are depending on Bondita and doing her Bhajan. Now she is only real Malkin of Roy Chowdhary family and Roy Chowdhary property .
This made mami fume with anger.
Rimjhim: If you don't believe just go and have a look at their house. Now she is only wandering around in happy occasions
They both stormed towards Roy Chowdhary family and rimjhim is enjoying seeing their angry
They too entered Roy Chowdhary haveli by covering their heads and faces with towel and pallu and just then cake cutting is done and Anirudh fed that cake to Bondita and she initially asked him to feed ksj. And sasurji but they both also insisted that she deserved this respect .
Mami gazed her from head to toe .. Bondita is wearing diamond necklace with costliest saree looking so happy. She is also feeding her Patibabu . Everyone are clapping for both of them
