Ruhana walked to the hall and saw Manvi sitting next to the window looking outside at the kids who were playing. It has been a month since they brought her back from that hell but the charm and smile were lost. She didn't even step out of the house as she was scared of society, their tantrums, and fears of facing humiliation. The doctor had told us every girl suffers from anxiety, depression, and PTSD post-domestic violence thus Ruhana never forces her to do anything.
Vineet visits a lawyer's office, sits down, and places the documents in front of him. The lawyer opens it and just reading the first few lines closes it.
"I am sorry lekin main ye case nahi le sakta hun" he refused
"kyun?" he asked
"dahej ka mamla hai Sir.. court ki hearing se pehle hi aap apni complaint wapas le lenge aur apni beti ko bhej denge ghar toh main kyun apna samay barbaad karun?" he said
Vineet sighed deeply "aisa kuch nahi hoga"
"Aap guarantee dete hai iss baat ki? badnaami aapke aur parivar ko sehni padegi aur aapki beti paise hi itna kuch seh chuki hai ya toh khudkhushi kar legi ya wapas laut jayegi" He said with his experience
He takes a deep breath and gets up "agar aapki beti hoti toh kya aap bhi yahi karte? ladte nahi uske liye?" he questioned him.
The lawyer looked at him silently. He leaves the office and closes his eyes helplessly.
Deep's home
Arohi's inlaw had came for a visit. They placed everything on the table and folded their hands.
"yeh rishta yahi khatam Ankush ji" Hrydansh father said
Deep stared at his friend "yeh kya badtameezi hai aise kaise rishta tod sakte ho?? Agle mahine ki date fix ho chuki hai na"
Hrydansh said "tumhari biwi ne tumhare upar dowry aur domestic violence ka ilzam lagaya hai Deep! Sagai mei bhi bhabhi nahi thi"
"wo sab jhooth hai! Sach toh yeh hai uska chakkar kahi aur chal raha hai isliye to mere bete ko chodke mayke chali gayi" Yamini said shedding tears. She was concerned for her daughter.
"Deep pehle tum bhabhi ko ghar le aao phir hum sochenge Arohi aur meri shaadi ka.." he said as he didn't wanted his family name to be ruined. He left with his family and Arohi fumed in anger.
She shouted "bhai aapki biwi ki wajah se mera rishta toot gaya!! Aap abhi ke abhi unhe ghar leke aayie.."
Deep sighed deeply.
Singhania Niwas
Vineet returns home, he glanced at his daughter for a moment and then eyed Ruhana.
"Kisi lawyer se baat hui?" she asked.
"Hui lekin koi dowry case nahi lena chahta hai..." he replies as lawyers feel in society pressure girl's family will back off and in the end, it will be all worth effortless. Ruhana understands and hopes to find a genuine person.
"Jald se jald dundho.. Mannu ko iss shaadi se bahar nikalna hai warna wo log phirse aa jayenge yahan tamasha karne" Ruhana said.
"Haan police waale ne bhi kaha hai lawyer jald se jald le aau taki court mein case file ho sake" Vineet replies.
Ruhana thought of having dinner in the restaurant today. She moves to Manvi and said "mannu.."
She turns her head and eyed her. "Aaj hum bahar khana khayenge teri favourite jagah! Jaake ready ho jaa" Ruhana said with a smile.
She denies "mumma.. Aap aur papa chale jao"
"Tere bina hum gaye kya kabhi bahar?" she asked.
"Lekin.." she protests.
