What if - Rishmi FF

Part 20

Virendra: Aayush ye sab kya keh rhe ho tum? Tumhe ye sab kaise pata chala.
Aayush: Mama doubt to mujhe iss Malishka pe bahot time se tha. But actually shak pakka tab hua jab Hume shalu ne divorce wali sari sachayi batayi. Aapko yaad hai na Rishi bhai wo sab.
Rishi nods in yes. Aayush starts narrating the entire story. How Malishka went and lied to Lakshmi about her and Rishi's relationship. How she threatened to throw them out of their home. How she wove a web of lies that Lakshmi was doing this for alimony money whereas Lakshmi hadn't even said anything like that. He also told them how Malishka knew that the article was not given by Lakshmi to the press but still used it to her advantage so that she could get engaged to Rishi. He also told about how Lakshmi had come to live with Rishi till the year completed so as to save him,  the day that the Pandit made the false interpretation. And how their old pandit had told Lakshmi that only she could save Rishi.
Aayush: Mujhe aur Rishi bhai ko tab hi iss ashubh wali baat pe doubt hua tha. Hum itne saalo se pandit ji ki baatein Maan rhe the aur unki saari baatein hamesha sach hui thi. Achanak se wo hume jhooth to nai bolte. Islie humne iss baat ki sacchai jaanne ka faisla kia. Fir ahana ke roke ke din maine Sunaina aunty ko baat karte suna ki ye Malishka ke pandit ji fraud hai aur paison ke lie kuch bhi karte hai. Bas Mera doubt aur pakka ho gya aur main kal inse milne gya tha naam badal ke. Maine baaton baaton me inse sach ugalwa lia ki ye paise lekar jhooti bhavisyavani karte hai. Mere paas recording bhi hai. But inhe ye nai pata tha ki ye sab sach bata ke fas jaenge. Inhe to laga ye laakhon kamane wale hai.
Neelam is extremely angry and couldn't control anymore. She comes and slaps Malishka hard.
Neelam: Bewakoof ladki. Tumhari himmat kaise hui hamare bete ki jaan jokhim me daalne ki. Tum hoti kon ho uski zindagi ke saath khelne wali.
Malishka is surprised but gets angry. She never had any respect for Neelam. Whatever she did was only to get close to Rishi.
Malishka: Aunty aap mujhpe haath utha rhi hai. Main aapki Malishka hoon, aapki hone wali bahu. Aapki choice hoon na main Rishi ke lie.
Neelam: Shut up. Hum kabhi tumhe apne bahu banana to door tumhari shakal bhi nai dekhna chahte. Tum itni giri hui hogi mujhe idea hi nai tha.
Malishka: Aunty maine Jo bhi kia Rishi ko paane ke lie kia. Aap jaanti hai na main usse kitna pyaar karti hoon aur wo Lakshmi ke kareeb jaa rha tha aur mujhe unhe alag karne ke lie jo sahi laga maine kia.
Sonia: Haan mom Malishka Bhai se pyar karti hai islie usne ye sab kia. Main maanti hoon Bhai ki jaan ki baat mazak nai hai but usne pyar me kia jo kia.
Neelam: Chup raho tum. Iss ladki ka side lene ki koi jaroorat nai hai. Ye pyaar hai, isse kehte hai pyaar ki jisse aap pyaar karne ka daava karte ho uski hi zindagi ke saath khelo. Wo to shukar hai ki ye sab hone ke bawajood Lakshmi hamesha hamare bete ke saath thi warna to pata nai kya ho jata.
While all this was going on, they heard police sirens and in came Durga Devi with her entourage.
Virendra: Inspector aap yaha. Balvinder ne apne saathi ka naam bata dia kya?
Malishka was already scared as fuck. Hearing about Balvinder she was at a complete loss of wits. She knew there was no escape for her now.
Durga: Yes Mr. Oberoi aur hum uss mujrim ko hi arrest karne aaye hai.
Neelam: What do you mean wo hamare ghar me se koi hai?
Durga: Yes. Mujhe pehle se hi iss insaan pe shak tha but ab to hamare paas poore saboot hai
Karishma: Kon hai wo stupid insaan inspector. Aap please use abhi arrest kariye.
Durga: Aap please mujhe mat bataiye mujhe kya karna hai. Mujhe apna kaam ache se pata hai. Hawaldaar hathkadi pehnaiye dono ko
The lady constable goes and handcuffs both Malishka and Kiran.
Everyone is shocked even more..
Durga : Jee haan ye dono hi hai aapke parivaar ke sare problems ke peeche. Hum inke ghar gye the inko arrest karne waha jaake pata chala ye yaha hai to socha yehi aake kar lete hai. Dono kaam ek sath ho jaenge. Aapko information bhi mil jaegi aur mujrim pakda bhi jaega.
So Mr Rishi, aapki ye ex girlfriend Malishka hi thi wo jisne Lakshmi ki fake pregnancy ke baare me Balvinder ko bataya tha aur use yaha aake wo drama karne bola tha. Aapke hotel me jo haadsa hua wo bhi  inka plan tha, Lakshmi ko defame karne ke lie. Yaha tak ki aapke ghar me jo us din shock wala incident hua tha wo bhi inhone aur inki mom ne Lakshmi ko maarne ke iraade se kia tha. Balvinder ne kafi pitne ke baad saari sachhai ugal di hai aur hamare pass audio recordings bhi hai proof ke lie..
Rishi couldn't take it anymore. He came infront of Malishka
Rishi: Tum kehti thi tum pyar karti ho mujhse. Aisa hota hai pyar? Agar haan to bhagwan kare tumhare jaisa pyar karne wala kabhi kisi ko na mile. Tum itna gir sakti ho, logo ki jaan lene ki koshish kar sakti ho main kabhi soch bhi nai sakta tha. Mujhe sach me bura laga tha jab maine tumse alag hone ka faisla lia, mujhe laga maine tumhara dil toda hai, guilt aa rha tha mujhe but now I am happy. Thank God main Bach gya tumse. Pata nai tum aage kya karti
Malishka: (holds his face) Nai Rishi aisa mat bolo. Tum jaante ho na main tumse pyar karti hoon, tumhare lie main apni jaan bhi de sakti hoon.
Rishi: Oh shut up Malishka. Apna drama band karo and stop trying to blackmail me everytime ye suicide ka natak kar ke..mujhe koi farak nai padega..
Malishka looks at Sonia and pleads her for help.
Sonia: Maine tumse kaha tha Malishka main kabhi kisi criminal ka saath nai de sakti. Main kundali wali baat fir bhi samajh sakti hoon but ye jaan lene ki koshish, I can't Malishka. I can't believe main tumhe apna itna acha dost maanti thi. Tumhe apni bhabhi banane ke lie maine kya nai kia. Sabse ladti aayi hoon hamesha tumhare lie and you. You are disgusting..
Karishma: Tumne ek baar bhi hamare parivaar ka nai socha. Hamari izzat hamara naam sab mitti me mila dia sirf apne obsession ke lie. Main chahti thi tum yaha bahu bankar aao but Aaj I am speechless at what you've done. I have never liked Lakshmi but Thank God wo Rishi ki wife bani tum nai. Tum to pata nai kya karti iss family ke saath.
Neelam: Humne pehle bhi kaha hai hamare lie hamara parivaar aur uski izzat sabse upar hai. Aur tumne sare hade paar kar di. Tumne itne logo ki jaan Leni chahi. Tumhe pata bhi hai agar Lakshmi ko wo pendrive nai milti aur prove nai hota ki Rishi bekasoor hai to kya hota. Tumne fir bhi kuch nai kia, bas tamasha dekhti rahi aur hamdardi jatane ka natak karti rahi. Aur kiran tum, tum to samajhdar ho, ye bewakoof hai but tum to ise samjha sakti thi na. Kyu nai samjhaya. Nai tum to iske saath milke iski bachkaand saazishon me help kar rhi thi. I regret the day jab tum logo se mile hum aur jisdin humne iss ladki ko apni bahu banane layak maana
Rishi: Main to abhi bhi vishwas nai kar paa rha ki jis Malishka se ek time pe mujhe lagta tha mujhe pyar hai wo aisi hai. Itni khudgarz, matlabi, maukaparast aur utterly disgusting. I hate you Malishka. Tumne na mera socha, na mere parivar ka. Sirf apna obsession yaad raha tumhe. Aur ye to ab kabhi mat kehna ki tum mujhse pyar karti ho, koi pyar nai hai tumhe bas zid hai. Ek khilona hoon main tumhare lie jo tumhe kisi bhi haalat me chahiye chahe uske lie kisi ki jaan hi kyu na chali jaye.
Inspector aap please le jaiye inhe. Main nai trust karta ise apni family ke paas. Ye kuch bhi kar sakti hai.
The constables start to take them away.
Rishi goes to Malishka and says
Rishi: Aur tumne meri Lakshmi ko nuksan pahochane ki koshish ki hai. Aaj ke baad mere saamne aane ki himmat mat karna warna mujhe nai pata mujhse kya ho jaega.
Virendra: And both of you beware, I will make sure that you get the punishment you deserve. Ab main tum dono ko chain se jeene nai doonga. Mere baccho ki jaan aur mere parivar ke saath khilwad kia hai na tumne, iski saza to milegi tumhe.
Durga: Dadi ab jab aapke mujrim pakde gye hai to main ek din jaroor aaungi aapke saath naashta karne. Abhi chalti hoon
Dadi: Haan haan puttar jaroor aana.
Aayush: Thank you so much ma'am for all the help. Aapne bahot bada issue resolve kar dia hai.. thank you again.
Everyone thanks the police and they take Malishka and Kiran away. Neelam apologises to her older priest profusely and he accepts their apology. Then they send away all the priests with dakshina..
All this while Lakshmi had kept quiet. Everyone was in such a shock including her. She couldn't believe Malishka could stoop so low. After all the outsiders have left, the family is still standing in the hall. Neelam goes towards Lakshmi. No one knows what to expect. But Neelam folds her hand infront of Lakshmi. She starts crying and apologising. Lakshmi holds her hand and tears are flowing from her eyes too.
Lakshmi: Mummy ji ye aap kya kar rhi hain. Aap uthiye pehle please. Aur aap ye haath mat jodiye mere samne.
Neelam(crying): Hume maaf kar do please Lakshmi. Humne tumhare saath bahot galat kia hai. Itna kuch kaha tumhe, itni buri baatein boli tumhe aur tumne badle me sirf mujhe samman dia, mujhe maa kaha.
Lakshmi: Aap hai meri maa, mummyji aur maa kabhi galat nai hoti. Aap ne jo bhi kia apne bete ke pyaar me kia. Aap please mujhse maafi mat maangiye. Aur maa ko to daantne ka haq hota hai na
Neelam: Maine sirf maa wale haq hi aazmaye hai, maa wali responsibilities kabhi nai nibhayi tumhari taraf. Tumne hamesha hamara acha chaha, acha kia aur maine tumhe sirf bhala bura kaha hai. Tumhare sath kitna anyaay kia hai. Ye sab ignore karne layak nai hai. Tumhe mujhe maafi Deni hogi chaho to saza bhi de sakti ho.
Lakshmi: Ye kya keh rhi hai aap mummyji main aapko saza kaise de sakti hoon..meri to aapko maaf karne ki bhi haisiyat nai hai.
Neelam: Ye tumhara badappan hai..
She looks at Virendra
Virendra aapne hume sabse acha gift dia hai hamari Bahu chun ke. Isse better ladki Hume sach me Diya lekar dhoondne se bhi nai milti.. Thank you so much.
Lakshmi hugs Neelam. She has finally got her mom back that she wanted. Rishi and others are happy to see them together. Karishma also came to Lakshmi
Karishma: Mujhe bhi maaf kar do Lakshmi. Main sirf class aur jhooti izzat ke chakkar me tumse nafrat karti rhi. Aaj realise ho rha hai ki insab chhezo se upar hota hai character and I am so happy that you are still here even after everything.
Lakshmi: Buaji aap please aisa mat kariye. Mujhe kisi se koi shikayat nai hai. Aap sab mera parivaar ho. Apne parivar se kaisa roothna
Sonia came and hugged Lakshmi
Sonia: Sorry Lakshmi. Uh Lakshmi bhabhi.
Lakshmi was overjoyed to hear soniya call her bhabhi for the first time. She hugged her back.
Lakshmi: Thank you Sonia, mujhe meri pyaari si nanad dene ke lie..
Ahana and Devika join in the hug.
Ahana: Hum bhi aapki pyaari nanade hai. hume mat bhool jana.
Shalu, aayush and Rishi have tears in their eyes looking at this happy scene.
Neelam hugs Virendra. Aayush hugs Rishi and Shalu hugs dadi. Everyone is happy finally..
It's 3.30 now and it's time for Rishi and Lakshmi to go for the hearing.
Neelam: Rishi tumlog jao ab hearing ke lie aur haan wapas hamari Bahu ko poore samman ke saath laana. Hum uska swagat ache tareeke se karenge. Aakhirkar hamare ghar ki Lakshmi hai ye.

This ss will be ending in a few more parts as I only wanted to get Rishmi together in my version.
