Ragini is about to eat it. But someone knocks the door. She hears, "Ragini...." Laksh voice...
"Laksh..!" Amazes Ragini and goes to door. Kaveri tries to stop her, but she goes and opens the door. Laksh was standing before her.
Swasan Balu are coming and they amazed to see Laksh already there.
Sanskar: see, our oil-bulb plan worked out.. He really concerned about her.
Swara: ya...may be...
Laksh holds Ragini's hand and tries to take her away from there, but she pushes his hand.
Laksh: Ragini, you don't know about that lady. She wants something from you.
Ragini: don't try to fool me Laksh ji. You won't be close with me and you don't let others also to be friendly with me..??
Laksh: don't harm yourself being angry on me.. All the people know about her here. But we can't throw her away because we don't have proof for her deeds. Now, come back to home.
Then Kaveri aunty starts her drama, "hey bhagavan.. Why they are insulting me like this? What did I do?"
Laksh: hello drama aunty, please stop your plays. I know you have something mixed in that kheer..
Swara: wow...Laksh is defending Ragini... How sweet...
Sanskar: but see, Ragini is seemed not interested in him..?
Swara: ha....?
Ragini was trying to remove laksh's hand while he hold her hand tightly.
Kaveri: you are telling that I have mixed something in this kheer, now see I will eat it...
She eats the kheer, but nothing happens to her.
Ragini: Laksh ji, it's very bad to hurt others...
Laksh: oh you believe her more than me...right..! You are not going to believe me... If Swara and others say it, then will you agree this?
Ragini: Swara... Oh I completely forgot about about her. She needed my help...
Ragini is rushes to go...
Swara: oh no.. Ragini is co in back.. I have to go back.. If she sees me like this, she will be upset..
Says Swara and she too runs. While running. Swara suddenly steps on the oil and falls down. Ragini who just came there sees her that she is fell and she shouts "Swara.." And runs to her.
Sanskar and Balu runs as they hear Ragini's shout.
Laksh who is far can't listen her. He looks at Kaveri and warns her..
"Don't try to see Ragini again... I will not be good if you do anything to her.."
Kaveri simply closes her door and she feels dizzy as she ate that kheer.
Ragini: Swara, how did you fell? Why did you come out having pain?
Sanskar sees swara's condition and come near her shouting, "Swara.."
He lifts Swara with his hands and takes her to her house. Ragini is amazed to see that..
Swara will be looking at sanskar in loving way...
Balu will be cleaning the floor, so that there will not be trouble again.
Sanskar takes Swara inside and make her to lay on bed. He starts rubbing her feet. She is just looking at him in passionate way. She suddenly says, 'ouch..' In pain..then sanskar puts his hand on her cheek, telling, "hey, don't worry. You could have walked slowly..."
They both forget that Ragini is beside them.. She smiles looking at them...
Ragini: from how long you have been in love?
Swara and sanskar panics with her words.
Swara: it's nothing like that Ragini....
Ragini: oo..come on Swara, I understood everything...
Then Swara thinks, a plan to make raglak together... She agrees with her.
Swara: yes ragu.. But we are afraid to tell this to Laksh and Balu..
Sanskar looks at her, "really..?" Swara blinks her eyes.
Swara: can you do me a favor Ragini, will you tell this to them?
Ragini thinks for a while, says ok and leaves the place.
San: why did you tell her like that? However, we are going to revel this today or tomorrow...
Swa: I have did this for them both.. Now Ragini will talk to Laksh about this.. That too love topic.. So, some.. La..la..la may happen...
San: if la..la..la happens then ok, but if bla..bla..bla happen?
Swara looks at him innocently, "hmm..?"
Ragini comes out thinking, " Laksh could also have loved me like that.."
She sees Balu cleaning the floor.
Ragini: why are you cleaning it?
He murmurs, "bcz, i pored oil.."
Ragini: what..??
Balu: hehe, nothing sis, just cleaning so that no one fall again..
Ragini: you are great bhayya.. Come with me.. I have to say you important thing.
Ragini and Balu go to Ragini's house, Laksh was in the hall, he was looking at the marriage photo of them.
Ragini clears her throat. Laksh look at her.
Ragini: I want to tell you an important thing..
Laksh and Balu look at her.
Ragini: I don't know how you will feel but, I have to say this. Swara and sanskar are in love with each other...
Laksh amazes with her words.
Laksh: they love each other... I never knew this...
Balu: I have expected this already, their behavior has cleared my doubt. They are in deep love since three years. But, I waited if they will tell..
Laksh: you knew this, why didn't you tell me?
Balu: I just had a doubt...
Ragini: you are right Balu bhayya, anyone who know the meaning of love can understand it.. But, the stone hearts can't observe it...
Laksh: excuse me Ragini, what do you mean by that? I'm a stone heart??
Ragini: I didn't say like that...
Laksh: yes you did...
Balu understands that a fight is going to happen, so he wants to leave.. Then only sky is covered with clouds and it's about to rain..
Balu: hehe..guys, I'm going now, I have to take the dried cloths. Otherwise they might get wet in rain.
Balu goes away.
Ragini and Laksh are looking angrily each other. Suddenly, a thunder comes.. Ragini scares and hugs him. Laksh is amazed...He is about to put hands around her, but Ragini gets away from him, runs into her room and closes the door.
Laksh looks on.. Then he sees a small paper which came from her room. It was the bill of the necklace which Ragini sold.
"For what Ragini has to sell her necklace.. Why do she need money?" He amazes...
.....
"The sky is covered with clouds, there is the heavy rainfall, that nobody beside is also visible. Ragini, who is wearing a red saree, is playing in that rain... The rain drops are wetting her... While, she is playing.. Laksh comes from behind and lifts her up... He turns around happily holding her in arms.... They have a deep eye lock..."
A sudden thunder storm strikes, Ragini who was in deep sleep awakes and realizes that it was only her dream..
"This is very bad..I want to ignore him, why he is coming in my mind.." She thinks...
Laksh was sitting at balcony having the look at rain. It's night 8'o clock.. Ragini comes into the hall to prepare coffee for herself. Laksh is just looking at her again. While preparing coffee, accidentally Ragini's hand get a slight burn. Laksh runs at her, 'Ragini..' And holds her hand.
"Can't you be careful.." He says and applies ointment. Ragini stares at him. Now, he looks at her. He puts his hand on her cheek. He is about to say something, Ragini stands up suddenly, "thank you mr. Laksh ji..."
Laksh gets hurt with her words, but he then asks her, "Ragini, why did you sell your necklace? If you really need money, you could have asked me..."
Ragini: Laksh ji, it is better if you don't involve in my matters. And I will never depend on you..
Laksh gets angry with her words and he furiously goes out. Ragini looks on...
Meanwhile, at swara's house,
Sanskar and Balu are playing chess. Swara is seeing it.
Balu: so, you have hided your love matter from us..
Sanskar : however, you expected it right!
Swara: so, Ragini said to you and Laksh, did anything happen in between them at that time,
Balu: anything means?
Swara: something like la..la..la..
Sanskar laughs..
Balu: what is this la..la..la, bla..bla..bla.. I didn't get you. But however they fought...
Swasan: what..??
Balu: fight with words, later I came back.
Swara: so, plan didn't go well, we have to plan something else...
Balu: hey, your parents doesn't know about your love still right..
Swasan: ya...
Balu: just a minute.. I will make a phone call and come.
Balu goes beside.
Swara: what shall we do sanskar?
Sanskar: I think, this time Ragini is showing attitude...
Swara: she has to show..!! Remembered, how Laksh rejected her.. These boys are like that..
Sanskar: hey.. I'm not like that...
Swara looks at him smilingly... Then suddenly her phone rings. It's her mom Sumi.
Swara takes the phone, and Sumi starts scolding her.
Sumi: why didn't you tell me, about your love...
Balu just comes and sits there. Sanskar is looking at her in confusion.
Balu: don't worry, now your phone also rings.
Just then his phone also rings. It's sanskar's mom sujatha.
Sujatha: arey sanskar, thum ne kya kiya...
Balu is laughing looking at them... The phone conversation ends. They both come and look Balu angrily..
Balu: hehe.. What happened..??
Swara: our engagement is fixed..!!
Balu: what..!! With others..??
Sanskar: no idiot, to me and Swara.. They have agreed our love, they fixed our engagement.. It's in two days...
Swara: yar, you will be silent, and you do everything...
Balu: I said that, to make your love complete...
Balu laughs.. It's Balu who informs their parents about it...
Laksh just comes there...
Laksh: engagement..really??
Swara: yes lucky, this Balu has done everything...
Sanskar: everybody are coming here itself.. In two days it's going to be..
Laksh: so, we have many works shopping, etc.. So, Swara,how do you feel..?
Swara puts her head down and blushes in shy..
They three laughs. Ragini just come there. She comes as she felt alone in house, and she wanted to spend with Swara. But already, they four are enjoying...
Ragini: after all, they are friends.. They are always together.. It's me who is alone..
She thinks and silently comes out. Kaveri is in front of her.
Kaveri: don't think you are alone Ragini.. I'm with you...
Ragini smiles and goes with her...
Swara: oh.. I have to tell this to ragu also...
She says and rushes out. She looks Ragini going with Kaveri.
"Ragini...." Shouts Swara in excitement, she runs towards her, holds her and dances.
Ragini laughs, "what's the matter Swara..?"
Swara: Ragini.... My engagement with Sanskar is fixed. Aww.. I'm happy...
Ragini: really...
Ragini hugs Swara...
Swara: ok..come with me to my house. A small party.
Ragini: no Swara, I have small work..
Swara: o..come on ragu..lets go...
Swara takes Ragini to her house. Kaveri looks at them angrily.
Ragini enters into her house. Laksh raise his head and look at her. She comes inside and sit silently without looking at him.
Swara: I have decided a small party now. I want to eat biryani..
Laksh: chalo, let's bring a parcel.
Swara: I want home made biryani...
Sanskar: but who knows cooking it?
Ragini: ha.. I know, I will cook that for you...
Swara: aww..thnq ragu...
Ragini smiles and goes into kitchen.
Balu: I will help you sis...
He too goes to kitchen.
Swara: aaahh.. I wanted to make ragu and lak together. But what this Balu...
She thinks...
Swara: oye Balu, get some vegetables yar..
Balu: but I think everything is there...
Swara looks in funny anger at him..
Balu: hehe.. I understood. I will go.
Balu goes out.
Swara looks at sanskar. He too understands and says, "till biryani is done, I'm sleeping.." And acts sleeping.
Ragini is busy is cooking. Laksh is looking at her.
Swara: Laksh, prepare some tea for me...
Laksh: what...
Swara: please..
Laksh also goes into kitchen. Swara smiles.
Laksh and Ragini are in same kitchen now. Laksh is looking frequently at her. But Ragini is really busy. But her heart is beating fast.
He prepares tea and give it to Swara.
Swara: ha, Laksh. Sugar is less. Can you get sugar?
Laksh: why don't You get yourself.
She looks angrily. Ragini hears it and gets sugar box to her.
Ragini: Swara, if you want anything ask me. You don't need to send him always to kitchen.
She goes to her work again. 'I'm sorry Swara, I feel bad when he is around..' Ragini says in herself.
Swara: haha.. Your wife don't like you doing work...
Laksh with sad tone, "not that, she don't like if I'm around.." He says. Swasan feel sad. Ragini bends her head. Balu comes back.
Biryani is finished... Everyone enjoys it...
Swara: there are lots of works. I think we have to take leave from office.
San: you know our stubborn boss.. We have to see all works at evening. No leave, nothing.
Ragini: Swara, don't worry. I will help you in everything.. You need not have to take leave.
Swara smiles.
After the dinner, Ragini and Laksh are returning to their flat. He wanted to talk something, but she turns her face away.
Ragini sits in her room and takes her books out.
"Hmm... Day after tomorrow is my GRE exam, I have to prepare and next day is swara's engagement. I will be busy with works tomorrow. So, I have to read now.." Thinks Ragini and she will be reading.
It's mid night. Laksh wakes up to drink water. He looks lights are on in Ragini's room. 'What is she doing' he thinks and knocks her door.
At first Ragini doesn't open. He knocks again. "Ofo.. What is his problem..?" She thinks and opens the door.
"What..?" She asks angrily.
Laksh: nothing Ragini, why are you awake still.
Ragini: I said, it's none of your business.
He sees GRE books on her bed. He looks into her eyes. She doesn't understand. He keeps moving forward looking at her. Ragini heart starts beating fast, and she steps back.
Suddenly Laksh shouts, "lizard..."
Ragini scares at once and holds his hand. "Where..where..." She fears.
Laksh just fools her and starts laughing badly. Ragini upsets with this and shouts.
Ragini: what's your problem Laksh. Why are you fooling around. Leave me alone..!!
Laksh stops laughing. "I was just joking Ragini. I'm sorry..." He says and goes away silently.
"Did I over react..?" Thinks Ragini.
