(Thank you for all your love for the previous chapter guys 😍🤗. Now let me clear 1 thing. Patralekha is now out for revenge! What happens next, read further 😅😎.)

As the Chavans go into different rooms, they each split up into groups.
1. Samrat, Pakhi and Mansi in Samrat's room
2. Bhavani, Ninad and Ashwini in Bhavani's room
3. Omkar, Sonali, Mohit and Karishma in Omkar's room
4. Sairat in their room.
5. Shivani in her room.

(Separate conversations to follow. Plus Sunny is not at home.)

Samrat's room:

M: Samrat, Pakhi, I am very happy for you both. Patralekha, I understand your past, your feelings and your heartbreak also. Whatever happened with you was very wrong, but you have to move on in your life. I am very happy you and Samrat decided to give your marriage a second chance. I wish you both happiness 🤗! BTW tomorrow is your anniversary right, so I have arranged for a small puja at home itself. If you 2 would like to have any extra celebrations or parties, you are free to plan. Now I'll leave you both. Talk and plan, and then let me know.

She hugs both of them and leaves. The atmosphere is totally awkward between the two. Pakhi wants to stay in the house only to take revenge and separate Sairat, while Samrat is slightly septic that how she agreed for a second chance so easily. He suspects her a little, but decides to act ignorant.

Sa: Look, I am really sorry that it took such a long time to sort out this misunderstanding. Let's try to know about each other a little! 😅 What's your hobby?

Pakhi is a little shocked at this. She has no interest at all, but finally decides to play along.

P: I like to dance, do yoga and gossip! What's your hobby?
Sa: Well, I am more of a gym guy! But, yes, I am very fond of gardening!

They continue talking like this. Finally, they talk about their anniversary.

Sa: So, what do you think about the anniversary? Should we have a party or something?
P: We don't know each other much yet. So I don't think just the 2 of us going out will be nice, I actually don't feel that comfortable. We can have a party here itself, can call friends and neighbors. That will be ok I guess.
Sa: Sounds good! 🙂 I'll ask Virat and Mohit also to help me in preparing for the party!

A thousand needles pierce Pakhi's heart on hearing Virat's name. She isn't bothered about her anniversary but wants to mainly spoil Sairat's anniversary. So she just agrees to Samrat's plan. They then have their dinner silently and decide to sleep.

Omkar's room:

So: Deva re deva, the person who we kept thinking was the ideal daughter in law, turned out to be such a creep! I am so happy I didn't get a daughter is law like her! 😬
Ka: See aai, I kept telling you that there was something between Virat Dada and Patralekha vahini! You never believed me 🙁😒!
Mohit (M): I knew Patralekha vahini never liked Sai, but I never understood the reason behind that. Now we all know what kind of horrible person she turned out to be.
Omkar (O): Keep quite Mohit! Everyone has their flaws! We can't blame everyone all the time!
So (sarcastically): Yeah right! We can't blame Patralekha for anything, but when it comes to Sai and Karishma, the entire family bursts out on them, underlining every flaw of theirs, and even badmouthing their parents! They are people Omkar, not trash! It is time we also give Sai and Karishma the same respect which Kaku used to give to Patralekha!
O: What are you saying Sonali? How can I go against Vahini?
So: I am not telling you to go against her. But why can't we support our own children's dreams? They also have a right, don't they. And don't forget, during Devyani's marriage, just because Virat found proof against your name, vahini dumped all the blame on you, even though this full plan was of vahini, Ninad dada, you and Patralekha! She only wanted to save her skin and wasn't bothered about you!
O (weakly): She just wanted peace....
Ka: Baba, when we clean the house, we just don't push all the dust under the sofa and leave it. It has to be thrown out, only then the house will be clean.
M: Baba, what Karishma is trying to say is that, peace doesn't mean just hushing up the matter. It has to come in the open, has to be solved. Only then everyone can understand each other. Otherwise only misunderstandings will be there.
So (a little tearfully): I am very proud of you both! I have treated you both in a very wrong way. I promise this won't happen again. I am really sorry. I'll be more attentive and supportive of you both from now on. And you Omkar, the faster you understand this matter, the better it will be for you and your children.😑
