After the kitchen scenerio, devi was not feeling good about the way anokhi responded, she thought this might trigger her and she would act in a way that would not be good. But anokhi proved her wrong, she really was calm and composed when situations like these come. Though devi sabherwal felt bad, but she still felt anokhi was not a good choice for his son. Anokhi has some really strong and rigid ideas about her future which are not accepted in the sabherwal family hence for them she would never be good.
By the time everyone came home, snacks were ready and they all sat, this time it was a silent affair because anokhi was really tired and sad about the happenings in the kitchen. Though she didn't show but her composure was starting to break, she might start crying any minute. Shaurya has been observing her and he could see that she was on the verge of breakdown so when everybody was done shaurya picked anokhi and took her to his room. This time no one said anything because they were getting used to of it. Shaurya calmly asked, "kiya hua hai anokhi. Itna chup kyun ho?" "kuch nhi PS, i am fine mujhai kiya hona hai" anokhi replied. "anokhi, we decided na no more hiding. Batao kiya hua hai?" shaurya asked again. "PS, kiya aap bhi mujhai chor dein ge, agar aapki family kahegi tou.?" anokhi asked more like showed her insecurities. "anokhi, i am not leaving you. Main tumhein kabhi nhi choroonga" shaurya pacified her. "tab bhi nhi agar aapko badi maa nai kaha tou?" anokhi asked again like a little child. " anokhi, kuch kaha hai badi maa nai?" he asked. Anokhi denied through her head but shaurya knew she was lying " anokhi saaf daaf batao kiya kaha hai, nahi tou main kanchan se poochloonga" shaurya threatened her. "PS, main aapki family ka hissa kabhi nhi ban sakoongi. No body wanted a girl like me as your wife. Wo mujhai accept hi nhi karenge" anokhi replied. "anokhi tum already meri wife ho, aur meri family bhi. Rahi baat acceptance ki tou waqt rehte karlenge sab accept , aur hum konsa koshish nhi kar rahe hai. Main hoon na tumhare saath" shaurya explained her. " aap pakka saath denge na, main aastha maam ki tarah tou..." anokhi stopped saying what she was when she realized what she was about to say in a flow. Shaurya looked at her alerted. Now he was sure, that anokhi knew something that he was unaware of so this time he directly asked her "aastha maam ki tarah matlab? " " ku.. kuch nhi PS" anokhi replied and bowed her head to hide her lie. " anokhi, mujhai saaf saaf batao. Aisa kiya hai jo tumhein pata hai aur mujhai nhi. And I have every right to know what has happened between my parents and why my mother left me." shaurya asked this time with seriousness. Anokhi looked at him. She did not wanted to be the one to tell the truth to him, because even she didn't knew it compeletely. But she was sure about one thing that PS's mom did not leave her family on her own will. She thought to just tell her what she knows and hoped that he would believe her. "PS aap ne kabhi socha hai kai aastha ma'am kyun gai thi, aap sab ko chor kar?" she asked him. The answer itself made him angry. Anokhi could see the change of emotions but she needed him to stay calm in order to have this conversation. Anokhi placed her hand on his hand and pressed it. Shaurya looked at her and took hold of her hand and pressed them to calm himself down. "kyunkai, wo apna career banana chahti thi" shaurya replied with disgust. "PS, aapko lagta, kai wo apne career kai liyai aapko chornegi?" anokhi asked. Shaurya looked at her and replied with firmness "unhone chora hai mujhai anokhi. Yai tum bhi janti ho. This was the reason I did not like career oriented women before you came in my life. Main tou hamesha se hi sab kai liyai unwanted hi hoo" anokhi smiled and looked at him with sadness. "PS, aap mere liyai sab se ahem hai lekin aap apni maa kai liyai bhi sab se ahem hai. Aap kehte hai kai aap unke liyai unwanted hai, kiya jitne saal wo aapke pass thi, is there any memory you felt that you are unwanted" anokhi asked which made shaurya think deep. Anokhi was right, 4 years and she had just given him love. Shaurya looked at her and asked "tou kyun gai wo mujhai chor kar anokhi. Jab sab se ziada zaroort thi mujhai unki tou wo kyun gai" shaurya was about to cry thinking about all the times he had missed his mom. "yai tou mujhai bhi nhi pata hai PS, iska jawab sirf aapke parents de sakte hai. Lekin mujhai ek baat pata hai kai both of them loves you so much. Situations aisi hongi kai unko kuch decisions lene pare honge lekin wo pyaar aaj bhi karte hai aapse." anokhi explained. Shaurya knew thay they loved him. Time and time after his reconcilation with his mother she had showered him with immense love. It was like she was pouring it all out. The love she had for him since so many years. Anokhi looked at him and saw him deep in thoughts. "PS, mujhai nhi pata hai kai aap ko yai baat maloom hai ya nhi, but aastha ma'am ka ek bhai bhi tha" this sentence made him look at her in shock. He had one more uncle. "mere mama bhi hai?" shaurya asked in shock. "haan PS" anokhi answered but shaurya frowned and asked "the ka kiya matlab anokhi?" " wo ab is dunya main nhi hai" anokhi replied. "Main jab aastha maam kai ghar jati thi tution kai liyai tab dekhi thi unki tasveer." shaurya looked at her realizing he had lost one relative just after knowing that he exist." PS, aap ko pata hai unki death kab hui thi? " shaurya kooked at her confused as to how would he know when he didn't even knew he exist." anokhi mujhai kaise pata hoga?" shaurya replied. "PS, aap ko yaad hai aapki maa apko kab chor kar gai thi? Month ya year kuch bhi?" anokhi asked hoping he would know. "4 july 1996" shaurya answerd with surety. This daye and this year, he could never forget. Anokhi gasped at the date. Shaurya looked at her, who had her eyes wide open. "kiya hua anokhi?" he asked tensed. "PS, aapke mama ki death 20 june 1996 ko hui thi" anokhi replied. Shaurya looked at her shock. He didn't knew how to react anymore. His mother went through the pain of losing her brother and then few days later she had to leave him too. How was she coping up. " mujhai nhi pata kai in dono event ka koi relation hai ya nhi lekin PS, unpar kiya guzri hogi, ek taraf apne bhai ko khoi huai 20 din nhi huai the, kai aap bhi unse door hogai. Unka apna khoon jinko unhone janam diya tha" anokhi said and cried. She had no idea how aastha ma'am would have passed through that phase. Whereas shaurya was having hard time believing all the things he has been fed since childhood. "maa kai jane ki wajah career tou bilkul nhi hai. Agar career hota tou wo mujhai bachpan main bhi chor sakti thi lekin nhi wo yahain thi. Tou aisa kiya hogaya tha un 20 dinon main kai maa ko mujhai chor kar jana para." shaurya thought to himself. This is high time I need to find the truth. Aisa kiya hai jo sab mujhse chupa rahe hai and he is going to find it now. Shaurya looked at anokhi." is sach ko tou main ab pata karke hi rahoonga anokhi. Its high time I get to know why my nother had left me. 25 saal nafrat ki is jhoot kai saath kai wo mujhai apne career kai liyai chor kar gai thi" shaurya said "PS, sach bht dardnaak bhi hoskata hai. Main aapko tootta nhi dekh sakti" anokhi answered all worried as to what will happen if he gets to know the truth. Though she wanted him to know the truth, but it's gonna break him. " jitna bhi dardnaak ho, it's high time it comes out. Aur waise bhi sach kabhi na kabhi tou samne aaiga hi. Aaj ho ya kal" shaurya said, to which anokhi looked down. She knew he was quoting her from the other night. Shaurya looked at her asked "tumhein pata tha na main bahar khara hoo?" he asked with a raised eyebrow. Anokhi looked at him and stammered "n. n. n. no" shaurya looked at her raised both his eyebrows this time as if challenging her to lie to him. Anokhi looked down and nodded. "isiliyai tumne dad se wo sab poocha tha na, take mujhai sach  unse pata chale" shaurya asked just to confirm his doubts. Anokhi did not say anything but kept looking down clearing his doubts. Anokhi whispered a low "sorry" shaurya kept eyeing her and then finally asked "tum kyun chahti ho, kai main, tumhari aastha maam ko accept karloon?" shaurya finally asked the question that has been pestering him. Since they have gotten married anokhi had tried everything to make them work, though she doesn't know the truth but still why. And time and time again he felt his mother also has been hiding things from him, something regarding the past. Anokhi finally looked up and replied "aap kehte hai na kai, main apaki family hoon, tou aap bhi tou meri family hai PS. And aastha ma'am kai baghair yai family incomplete hai yai baat aap bhi jante hai. Aur jab tak aapki family complete nhi hogi tou meri kaise hogi PS. Aur meri family ko aap complete karenge. " shaurya looked at her lovingly. This was also one of the reaosns he loved her so much. She was really loving and thoughtful for everybody. And then suddenly he remebered what he wanted to talk to her in the first place
" anokhi , badi maa nai kiya kaha tha?" shaurya asked again. Anokhi made a face, she really was hoping he would have forgotten uptil now, but no. " kaha na PS, kuch bhi nhi.". Shaurya looked at her with a warning which made anokhi gulp. "wo, wo keh rahi thi kai main mehman hoo, aur mujhai kitchen main nhi hona chaiyai" she answered with terror. She knows how angry shaurya can get and she really was hoping she could calm him at the moment. Shaurya was angry and he stood up to talk to badi maa. " how could she say this to anokhi . Didn't he made himself clear, that he loves her" he thought. As he started moving anokhi grabbed his arm pulled him back on the bed. "aap yahi bethe. Kuch nhi kahenge kisi se" anokhi warned him. She did not want any kind of scene when she is here only for two days. "lekin anokhi." shaurya was saying when anokhi interupted him by placing het hands on his lips. "shush, bohat batein karte hai aap. Aur abhi kisi se kuch kehne ka koi faida nhi hai PS. Hum dono ko pata hai sab ko time lage ga accept karne main. Tou abhi aap jakar gussa kareinge aur mohal kharab hoga, sab mujhai blame karenge. Isse behtar yai nhi hai kai abhi hum is baat ko ignore karein aur koshish karte rahe kai sab mujhai accept karle and aaj ki raat bhi sukoon se guzar le. " she replied and looked at him, hoping he would understand. Shaurya looked at her and nodded. Anokhi really has grown up alot. She has now started being mature. No impulsivness, but very thoughtful decisions. Anokhi smiled and kissed his cheeks. Shaurya looked at her shying and smirked. "mujhai nhi pata tha wifey, tumhari baat manne ka yai reward hai. Nice nice. Deti raha karo aise rewards, yai husband tumhari har baat manega" shaurya teased her. Anokhi blushed and slapped his arms "chup rahe" she added as well.
After this intense discussion, there was still time in dinner, so anokhi asked shaurya, " reema nai aapko notes diye koi PS?" "arey haan. Ruko deta hoon" shaurya replied. After giving her the notes, both of them got busy completing their works. Anokhi completing her lectures she missed today and shaurya working for the patiala campus. They got so engrossed in work that they didn't realize it was dinner time. Only when kanchan came to call them, they realized the time. And looked at each other shocked. The scene looked like a couple who have been married for 10 years and were comfortable in the silence. It felt like they were used to having this dynamic, where they spend time and work on their own work in their room. Shaurya felt as if he was living in the future and anokhi had already shifted to sabherwal house. 
Both of them went down to have dinner. This time anokhi did not keep silent, so everybody felt like anokhi was back, but devi knew that shaurya and anokhi might have talked it through. No matter what, but she knew they would never hide things from each other. Anokhi really has bcome the perosn shaurya could speak his heart out. She was afriad, on how shaurya would react, but surprisingly he seem really calm even after knowing what she said to anokhi. Shaurya's calm demeanor made devi question whether anokhi told him or not.
"Anokhi ab pao ka dard kaisa hai? " shaan asked her." behtar hai dad, i hope kal tak tou sahi hojaongi than back to college " she replied excitingly. Everybody could see, that she was excited to go back to college. Some smiled looking at her , some made an expressionless face.
After the dinner, everybody was sitting in the living room having a cup of tea, anokhi was squeezed between yash and  kanchan who have managed to push shaurya away from anokhi which had him sulking in the corner. Shaan and gaytri laughed silently looking at shaurya. Tej devi and alok asusual didn't react but bebo and kitty were really curious as what those three were discussing looking in the same phone for past 15minutes. Its like they were in their own world. They silently went behind them seeing a movie clip and whispering to each other. Thye both stood behind and kept on seeing the screen. Bebo and kitty didn't knew, but they were really interested into what anokhi keeps discussing with each family member. They would find themself being drawn towards anokhi, they wanted to be the part of the conversation but would always stop themself because of their ego. Hence right now both the sister bent a little and watched the clip the three were watching when shaurya saw all five of them hurdled. Even he stood up and went beside his sisters and saw the clip. He stood there aswell. The eleders were now really curious as to what they all were watching. Shaan raised and eyebrow and was about to ask what are they looking at in the phone so deeply when tej spoke up, "kiya kar rahe ho tum sab us mobile main ghus kar.?" all of them looked up and when anokhi looked around confused as to what he means by all of them. She eyed the brother sisters and all of then backed looking like they have been caught red handed. Anokhi turned and answered" kuch nhi tej sir bas, video dekh rahe the. Bohat intersting clip thi" and as anokhi said that all of them looked at her, as if she has grown horns. Anokhi looked around and saw everybody looking at her with weird expressions. Tej stilled when he heard her say tej sir. It felt so alien to hear tej sir from anokhi now. Devi felt bad, she did not want to do this. Anokhi was backing out from the relations she has formed. " aap sab aise kyun dekh rahe hai mujhai?" anokhi asked innocently. This time shaan replied "tumne tej bhaisahab ko tej sir kyun bola?" he said with a shock. "tou wo tej sir hi hai na!" anokhi answered with shrug of her shoulders. "bade papa hai wo anokhi tumhare, jaise shaurya kai hai" shaan said. "han I know wo PS kai bade papa hai, lekin I realized I shouldn't have forced myself on them. Mujhai unki permission leni chaiyai thi before addressing them as badi maa and bade papa. I am really sorry, agar aap ko ajeeb laga ho kai yai larki force kar rahi hai apne apako yahan. Main nai realize hi nhi kiya tha start main. Aap ijazat denge tabhi main aap ko ab bade papa aur badi maa boloungi. " anokhi answered. All of them looked at her with a sad expression. Kanchan, gaytri and shaurya knew the actual reason for her saying this whereas everybody stood confused as to what changed all of a sudden. Devi was feeling a lot of emotions, she knew why anokhi was saying that yet she didn't reveal that it was her statment that made her realize that she had been forcing herself on them. But now that anokhi has backed out without any fight or tantrum to be accepted, she felt guilty. She agreed she should not have said what she did in the kitchen specially to the girl who her son seems to love alot. Tej looked at anokhi, he did feel disappointed but he didn't knew where this emotion was coming from. It was anokhi's right or may be tej thought that since shaurya has married her, anokhi was obliged to call them bade papa and badi maa. He would have said something regarding this but than it would mean accepting their marriage which he did not want to. But somewhere he has started seeing anokhi as the sabherwal daughter in law. Nobody said anything after that and left for their rooms. Shaurya changed and went to the guest room to sleep, anokhi tried convincing him to let her go sleep in guest room but shaurya was stubborn and made her agree to sleep in his room or more like their room.

A very long update. Hope you all enjoy.
