Continue :

Preeta and karan was shown standing infront of main door of the mansion.. They ringed the door bell & was waiting for someone to open the door.. preeta was feeling really excited to meet his family, while karan was tensed..

After showing puppy eyes for straight 5 minutes.. he agreed.. he couldn't help himself seeing his wife happiness..

Preeta : karan don't be like this now.. smileeee!

She streched his lips upwards to made him smile but he just looked at her & shook his head at her antics.. he politely removed her hand & looked straight made her pout..

She was confused also as she didn't know why he was behaving like this.. this was his family.. he should be happy to meet them & even they should live with them.. then why?! she had many questions but decided to ask him later..

Karan : preeta!

He warned her as she lightly tickled his side.. she giggled & side hugged him wrapped her arm around his torso..

Preeta : Aapne kaha tha gussa nhi karenge..

She said looking towards him while resting her chin on his chest.. he softly kissed her forehead & pulled her closer by holding her waist..

Karan : nhi karunga..

He nodded his head as a good & totally whipped husband who should accept every order of his wife..

Preeta : i m little bit nervous.. aapki family ko m pasand nhii aayi to..

Karan : who cares?! I love my wife and that's it! Unki pasand opinion kuch matter nhii karta.. and if anybody dare to even look at you in judging way.. i will-

Preeta : you will not do anything!

She stopped him in between & placed her finger on his lips.. he was about to argue but shut his mouth seeing her cute glare..

Preeta : you promised! ( he looks away ) karan.. mere liye please.. gussa mat kijiyega..

Karan : only for you!

He whispered & intertwined their fingers together then placed a kiss at the back of her hand made her smiled..

In the car aftet convincing him with lots of efforts.. preeta took promise from karan that he wouldn't behave rudely and disrespect anyone.. most importantly he would control his anger.. he denied first but a glance at her beautiful face.. he sighed and promised her..

But he knows that he wouldn't be able to control himself because his so called namesake family was no better than monsters except his mother & younger brother sameer..

The door opened revealing his mother who first looked shocked then tears of happiness came in her eyes seeing her son coming home after months..

Preeta : rakhi maa.. kaisi hai aap ?

She asked with smile & both touched her feets.. rakhi blessed them & hugged them tightly..

Rakhi : khush raho mere bacho.. hamesha khush raho.. Thank you preeta.. iss bewakoof ko yaha laane ke liye..

Preeta chuckled while karan sighed smiling lightly.. rakhi kissed their forehead with lots of love..

Karan : i missed you mom..

Rakhi : ( angrily ) acchi jii.. to kabhi milne kyu nhii aaya apni mom se.. itna naraaz ho gaya apni family se ki ek phone tak karna zroori nhii samja.. aaj bhii agar preeta na hoti to tu to kabhi aata hi nii..

Karan : aapka pata hai mom kyu.. phir bhii aap yeh sab baate bol rhi haii.. 

Rakhi sighed.. preeta looked at them confusingly.. suddenly, a man came running towards her & hugged her tightly startling others..

Sameer : bhabhiiii!! Finally maine aapko dekh hi liyaa..

Preeta got scared & pushed him away hiding behind karan..

Karan : sameer!

He warned him & tighten his hold on her hand to calm her down.. she still wasn't comfortable around other man except karan..

Sameer : sorry bhaii.. i just got over excited.. and bhabhi dariye mat mujhse.. m sameer.. aapka devaar..

He said while flashing her a big smile.. she looked at karan nervously.. he nodded his head assuring her & signed her to go meet him..

Preeta : hello..

She said in low tone made sameer chuckled & pinched her cheeks..

Sameer : you are so cute & beautiful bhabhii.. itni pyaari wife kaha se mil gyii aapko bhaiyaa..

Karan smiled looking at her who was blushing hearing Sameer's words..

Karan : i got lucky.. and don't do this again..

He said about pinching her cheeks and rubbed her cheeks softly.. their moment got disturbed when they heard other voices inside the mansion..

One by one karan's dadii.. sister came..  karan introduced her to everyone..

Kareena : karan! My boy.. akhir tu apne ghar aa hi gayaa..

Saying this, she hugged him smilingly while karan rolled his eyes and politely removed her hand & moved backwards..

Kareena was a very wicked & low minded womens.. she judge people on the basis of their status.. She was one of the those people who opposed karan from marrying preeta in the past..

Kareena : tum preeta right ?!

Preeta nodded her head & touched her feet.. and to karan's shock.. she blessed her with smile & even hugged her..

Sherlyn : hyy preeta.. i m sherlyn.. tumhari jaithani.. karan ke bade bhai rishab ki wife.. nice to meet you..

Preeta smiled at her.. sherlyn was about to move towards preeta but before that karan immediately pulled her by his side & wrapped her arm around her shoulder.. he glared at sherlyn while she made a innocent face..

Rakhi : beta tum dono yahi ruko m abhi pooja ki thaalii or grahparvesh ki tyaari karti hu..

He sighed in relief as none of them did & said anything which would hurt preeta..

Later , rakhi did the ritual as it was the first time preeta was entering their inlaws house and settled in living room..

All the while karan noticed that all his family members behaving normally.. even sherlyn bonded with preeta so well Because sherlyn was a spoilt brat but till now she didn't do anything & kareena too didn't taunt preeta as per her habbit..

He smiled thinking that they might like preeta as who couldn't like her... his sweet babydoll..

Karan : mom bohot time ho gaya haii.. ab hame chalna chahiye..

He said while standing up & looked at rakhi.. they came in morning & now it was evening.. Everyone turned towards him.. almost glared him.. even preeta.. he raised his eyebrows asking what..

Sameer : bhaii aap aaj hi to aaye hai.. kuch din yahi ruk jaiye.. or dekhiye na aap dono ke aane se ghar m kitni ronak ho gyi haii or bhabhi bhi itni khush haii..

Kareena : haa karan.. aaj hi to ham apni bahu se mile haii.. itni jaldi kahi nhii jaane denge.. baitho tum..

Karan : i m sorry but no.. ham dobara aa jayenge aap logo se milne lekin ham yaha nhii ruk sakte.. chalo preeta..

He hold preeta's wrist & about to move but preeta stopped him placing her hand on his chest & looked at him with pleading eyes..

Preeta : karan.. aaj yahi ruk jaate hai na.. or na mat kehna kyuki maine rakhi maa se promise kiya tha ki ham kuch din rukenge.. please..

She said while looking down scared of his anger.. she knows she was going to get a good scolding from him for not saying anything to him..

Karan : or tumne mujhse ek baar bhi puchna zroori nhii samja..

He glared at her angrily & clenched his hand into tight fist..
