(You all guessed it right! Samrat + Riddhima = Samriddhi (Prosperity)! Samrakhi is a totally toxic pairing for me and I'll be throwing it in the dump 😒. And as many wanted, it is nearly time for Aryan's re-entry 🎉!)

For a few days, there is peace in the house. There have been very few taunts thrown at each other and Pakhi continues her drama of an obedient daughter in law. Their lives go on smoothly for a few days.

On the night before Sai's father's death anniversary, Sai is sitting in her room. She misses her father terribly 😢.

S: Aaba, just 1 year ago my life was so different. I could have been a simple and happy student, with you present by me at every step! After you left me, my life has been a whirlwind! I have no idea where I am being dragged about. There is no other purpose in my life other than me fulfilling your dream of me becoming a doctor! I long for your love, aaba! Aai, Shivani bua, Mohit, Devi tai, Pulkit jiju, and nowadays even Karishma, Sonali kaku, Omi kaka, and baba, they have all given me a lot of love! I am finally feeling that I am a part of this family. But no one can match your love for me, aaba. Tomorrow is your death anniversary. I don't know how I'll survive tomorrow's day! Virat seems to have forgotten about tomorrow 😕! He hasn't talked about it to me at all. I am very angry with him 😡! Such an ungrateful person! How could you give my responsibility to such a person aaba?! He is so insensitive! You must be regretting your decision to give my responsibility to him from heaven above! Huh! I miss you badly, aaba!!! I really miss you!! 😭😭

Thinking about her father, Sai falls on her bed crying. At that moment, Virat enters the room, because he is late from work. He has been thinking about Kamal sir the whole day! Kamal sir, who had been the best mentor any student would ask for, who had been very good at his job, who had given him the best person he had ever met as his wife, and who had loved Sai unconditionally! Virat also misses him as much as Sai! He has been thinking about the death anniversary rituals preparation which he has got done. Should he call the entire family or only he and Sai should go? His mother has anyway agreed to come. Thinking all this, as he enters the room, he hears Sai's heart wrenching sobs and sees her sprawled on the bed, her messy hair tumbling over her shoulders, tears continuously flowing from her eyes, and shivering badly! He immediately rushes to her and tries to comfort her.

V: Sai, Sai what happened!!? Come on, please stop crying! I am here now, you don't have to worry about anything! Come on Sai, speak to me!! 😟😞

She pushes him away as she thinks he has forgotten about her father's death anniversary.

S: HOW DARE YOU??! Stay away from me!! You know nothing about what I am going through. How can you forget about aaba today??! He was the reason you are alive today!! And you forget about him in just 1 year?! You are ungrateful!! I hate you!!

She continues to shiver uncontrollably. Virat slowly rubs his hands on her back to comfort her.

V: Sai, I can never forget him. He is the reason I am alive and I will never forget it! And whatever accusations you are putting on me are false. I have already done all the preparations for tomorrow. The rituals will all be done in the temple nearby and even aai will be coming with us. Please calm down Sai.... 😢

Virat's words slowly register in her mind. She begins to calm down.

S (sobbing slightly): Really?!! .... You have do..done all the preparations? And wow, even aai is coming?! Thats so sweet! 🙂 I am sorry I blamed you for no reason Virat! Sorry 😔!

Virat doesn't say anything. He gives a slight smile. Sai also gives a small smile. At that moment silence speaks more than words. Virat hugs her comfortingly, Sai's head is on his shoulder and they stay like that for some time in silence. After some time, Virat breaks the silence.

V: Sai, I have to tell you something.

Neat Day:

Sai, Virat and Ashwini, all wear white and set of for the temple in the morning. When they reach there, Ashwini tells Sairat to sit down for the rituals while she stands a little far, as she didn't know Kamal Joshi and is just there for the sake of Sai! She gazes at them lovingly as they perform the rituals. (I don't know about them, so I won't expand on them 🙈.)

S (in mind): Aaba, I was very wrong to doubt Virat yesterday. I respect him for remembering this day. It has been 1 year since you have gone Aaba, and I have missed you everyday. You may not be with me in body, but you are always with me in soul. I'll always love you Aaba and thank you. Thank you for making the person I am today! Thank you for giving my responsibility to Virat. The deal marriage is not the same now, aaba! I have almost started to fall in love with Virat. Bappa, I just wish 2 things! Please keep me and Virat together always and help me complete my father's dream of seeing me a great doctor! And, aaba, I just hope you and aai, wherever you are, should be very happy and look out for me from above! 😔😢🙏

V (in mind): Kamal sir, in this 1 year so many things have happened. But, I can now say that the best thing was mine and Sai's marriage. I am very happy with her and immensely in love with her! The promise I have given to you, I'll fulfill it till the last letter. I may not be successful but I'll try to give her everything you had envisioned for her. I will stand by her always. I'll miss you Kamal sir and thank you. Thank you for making me the police officer I am today and, best of all, thank you for bringing Sai and me together! 😔🙂🙏

A (in mind): Mr Kamal, I don't know anything about you. But wherever you are I hope you find peace, because Sai is with us now and she will face no trouble in the future. Thank you. 🙏

All the 3 finish their prayers and come to the outside of the temple. They are distributing the prasad to nearby people when Sai remembers something.

S: Virat, I forgot my handkerchief in the car and I need it. Could you unlock the car so I can go get it?
V: Of course. The car is right there. Go ahead.

The road and car are visible from the temple where Virat and Ashwini are standing. Virat unlocks the car from there and Sai goes towards it. Just as she is about to cross the road, another car/van comes in front of her! 4 hands extend out of it and quickly grab Sai! She struggles to free herself and starts screaming. She frees 1 hand and even lands a solid punch on the head of one of the kidnappers! But another person comes from behind and tries to push her inside the van! Virat has a clear view of all these from the temple. As soon as he hears Sai's screams he runs towards the road to save her, with Ashwini running behind him. He is too late as the 3rd goon knocks Sai on her head and she becomes unconscious. He pushes her into the van. The door closes and just as Virat is seconds away from the van, it speeds away. Virat chases the van for some distance but the van gets away with Sai! He falls to the ground in despair as finally Ashwini reaches him.

V: SAIIIIIIIII!!!!!! 😡😡😩😩😭😭😩😩
