Digvijay kept fumming in anger. He was standing in a corridor.
"Kyu aayi wo auarat mere samne.. " He gritted his teeth.
Bandana came there.
"Kya hua tumhe..? " She asked.
"Kuch nai.. Wo bas.. " Digvijay said.
"Nivi ne bataya.. Wo kho gyi thi aur kisine lake chhodha use.. " She said.
Digvijay hummed.
"Aur yeh bhi bataya ki tum uss aurat ko dekh ke jyada khush nai hue.. Rather tum naraj ho gye.. Aur baki sab bhi tensed lag rahe hai iss incident ke baad.. Aisa kya ho gya hai.? " She asked.
"Look.. Main nai janta mujhe batana chahiye ya nai.. Par sab jante hai ki use dekh ke main naraj kyu hua.. " He said.
"Kyu..? " She asked.
He made a face.
"Well.. I think I am not comfortable.. Tum kisi aur se pooch lo.. " He looked away.
She felt strange. Both awkwardly looked away.
"Main.. Baad me milti hoon.. " She said.
"Ok.. " He said.

Bandana became curious to know the truth that made Digvijay uncomfortable. Randhir & Aarushi were sitting near fountain.
Bandana thought fr a while but decided disturb them.
"Hello guys.. " She went there.
"Hi Bandana.. " Randhir said.
"Yaha kyu baithe ho..? " Bandana asked.
"Aarushi ka apne Aaisaheb ke sath jhgda ho gya hai.. Isliye wo gussa hoke baithi hai.. " Randhir told.
"Main kya karu samajh nai ata.. Ab Nivi nai janti thi ki wo kaun hai.. Bas bol rahi hai ki Nivi ko bole ki usse door rahe.. Ab.. Kaise bolu main use jake.. Kya lagega use ki hum restrictions daal rahe hai.. " Aarushi said in anger.
"Par aisa kyu bolna hai..? " Bandana asked.
"Are.. " Aarushi sighed. "Jinhone Nivi ki madad ki unka naam Uttara tha.. Wo.. Wo mere kaka ki.. Yani Sumedh ke dad ki dusri biwi hai.. " She told.
"Dusri biwi aisa kuch hota hi nai hai" They heard Abhishek's voice. "Jab tak aapki pehli biwi jinda hai ya phir divorce nai hua hai.. "
Bandana understood everything & looked towards Randhir who was also shocked.
Sumedh , Sara & Sameeksha were also with Abhishek.
"Hum kyu baat kar rahe hai unke bareme..? " Sumedh asked.
"Abhishek.. Hame aisa nai kehna chahiye.. Kaka ne shadi ki unse.." Aarushi said.
"Kaise shadi Tai..? Jise na dharm manta hai na kanun..? " Abhishek asked.
"Bandana.. Sach yeh hai ki wo Uttara jinki yaha baat ho rahi hai wo mere baba ki Rakhel hai.. " Sumedh said.
Sameeksha widened her mouth & hit him.
"Sach kaha maine.. Aur jis Siddharth ke bareme tumne mujhe bataya na Sara.. Wo usi aurat ka beta hai.. " Sumedh said.
Sara remembered Siddharth.
"Guys.. I think hame yeh topic yahi band karna chahiye.. " Randhir said awkwardly.
Abhishek walked away from there in anger. Sumedh followed him.
Bandana felt bad fr starting the topic. Everyone was looking hurt.
"I am sry.. Mujhe bolna hi nai chahiye tha.. " She apologized.
"Nai.. Tumhari galati nai.. Ab jo sach hai wo hai.. " Aarushi said.
"Wo ladki aaj subah hame mili.. Aur tumhare jaisi aankhe thi wo bhi unki beti hai..? " Randhir asked.
"Kaun mila tha tumhe..? " Aarushi asked.
"Mujhe aur Amit ko mili thi.. Bacchi hi thi.. May be 15-16.. But.. " Randhir was about to say but stopped.
Bandana laughed.
"Yeh Wahi ladki na Randhir jiske bareme tum aur Amit bol rahe the.. Ki wo patakha thi.. Aur uski aankhe aag lagau thi.. "She said.
Aarushi widened her mouth.
" Randhir..??? How dare you.? Himmat kaise hui tumhari kisi aur ko dekhne ki..?? " Aarushi asked in anger.
"Are.. Aisa nai hai.. Wo toh Amit hi bol raha tha.. Main nai.. " Randhir lied.
Aarushi stood up.
"Are kaha ja rahi ho..? " He grabbed her wrist.
"Main baat nai karungi tumse.. Jao usi patakha ladki ke pas.. " She said & went.
Randhir looked towards Bandana.
"Tum.. " He raised his finger.
She started laughing.
"Aur dekho patakha ladkiyan.. Aag lagau aankho wali.. " She said.
Randhir made a face.
"Waise.. Ek baat toh manani padegi.. Pasand aayi jo.. Wo bhi uski cousin hi nikli.. Tumne Aarushi ka hi roop dekha usme bhi.. " Bandana said.
"Mag.. Ahech mi tasa.. (Yess.. I am like that.. )" He said proudly.
"Haan haan.. " Bandana said sarcastically.
"Ab bas tum dekhna.. Apni Rani ko kaise manata hoon main.. " Randhir said.
******
"Matlab wo.. Oh god.. " Nivi said.
Both Digvijay & Nivi were sitting on his bed.
"Siddharth aur Mugdha.. Unke bacche hai.. " Digvijay told.
Nivi hid her face in palm.
"This is.. Pata nai kya bolu main. " She said.
"Wo jo niche Wada (house) dikhta hai yaha se.. Waha wo rehti hai.. " Digvijay told.
"Aur wo jo old lady hai wo..? " Nivi asked.
"Kaun old lady..? " Digvijay asked.
"Main abhi niche dekh rahi thi.. Toh unke ghar ki chhat pe ek old lady dikh rahi thi.. " She said.
Digvijay sighed.
"Wo.. Well.. Unka naam Alkabai hai.. Aur wo.. " Digvijay searched fr words.
"Don't tell me ki wo tumhare Aajoba ki koi lagti hai.. " Nivi said.
Digvijay sighed.
"Unfortunately yes.. " He answered.
"Hey bhgwaan.. Yeh sab kya hai.. " Nivi said.
"Pata nai yr.. Mujhe bahot gussa ata hai.. Loyalty naam ki koi cheez hi nai.. Matlab Aajoba ke waqt toh yeh sab itna normal tha.. Kaka ke waqt kam ho gya tha.. Phir bhi kisine kuch kaha nai.. " He said.
"But this is wrong.. " She said.
"Haan.. Bilkul.. " He said.
Nivi chuckled. Then he started laughing. Nivi laid on bed while laughing.
"Hame hasna nai chahiye.. Hasne jaisa kuch hua hi nai.. " Digvijay laughed.
"Nai.. Mujhe imagine hua ki agar maine tumse shadi ki.. Aur uske baad tumne aisa kuch kiya toh main tumhari kya haalat kar doongi.. " Nivi laughed.
He stopped his laughter & looked towards her.
"Accha..? " He laid over her. She became scared.
Nivi felt his weight on herself. She raised her hands to made him away but he grabbed them & pinned them in bed.
"Tumhe aisa laga hi kyu ki main aisa kuch karunga..? " He asked.
She started breathing heavily. She just wanted him away from her.
"Nai.. Main.. " She stammered.
"Main kya..? " He asked.
She felt very scared as she saw changing expressions in his eyes. Their faces were inch apart when Nivi turned her face.
Digvijay again sensed her fear & became straight. Suddenly He remembered Bandana who reacted exactly opposite when he hugged her.
He stood up & went towards his study table.
"Jab lunch ke liye sab aa jayenge toh mujhe bulana.. " He said.
Nivi understood that he became upset. But she herself was so scared that she decided not to talk anything. She just said yes & ran from there.
