After their divorce, Lakshmi forces herself to look for a job in order to feed her family. When she finds one as a housemaid at someone's house, she has to face multiple difficulties in order to make ends meet, while Rishi tries to look for her
Next Morning, Rishi woke up feeling weight on himself and saw his wife sleeping peacefully on his shoulder
He smiled and shifted closer to her, he closed his eyes and dozed off again, cherishing the precious moment
After a while, Lakshmi wakes up to the gentle sounds of birds chirping on the room's window, she smiles, but then realizes that she is sleeping next to Rishi, and quickly jerk away, which disturbs his sleep
"Kya hua?" He groan, rubbing his eyes
"K..Kuch nhi, sorr, tum so jao" She says, getting up and fixing her dupatta
"Utha kar ab bol rahi ho so jao, khair...ab main uth chuka hoon, idhar ao" He says, stretching his body
Lakshmi innocently come closer to him, only to be pulled closer, she was literally on his lap now, and while he stared at her, smirking, she annoyedly tried to get out of the hold
"Let's go back home today Mrs Oberoi" He said, shocking her
She quickly jerked away by pushing him and gloated
"Nahi, main ghar nahi ja rahi" She said, astonishing him
"Par tumne kal toh bola tha ke tum chalo gi, kal tumne mujhe maaf kar diya tha" He says, confused
"Maine tumhe hug kar liya, iska matlab ye toh nahi ke maine tumhe maaf kar diya, us waqt maine bus jazbaat main aakar, tumhe gale laga liya tha, maaf nahi kiya maine" She clears, making him annoyed and unsatisfied
He makes an annoyed face, and faces the other way, Lakshmi tries to talk to him
"Rishi, idhar dekho na" She says, trying to divert his attention
Rishi continues to ignore him, and keeps facing the other way, no matter what Lakshmi says
"Acha, utho aur chal kar nashta kar lo" She offered, to which Rishi shrugged
"Nahi, mujhe bhook nahi hai" He replied in a cold tone
"Tumne kal raat ka thoda sa soup piya hua hai, bhook nahi lagi?" She confronts him, to which he nods
Lakshmi rolls her eyes and goes to the kitchen to make him his favourite Poha (consider it) which he couldn't refuse
She uses ketchup to make a love heart near on the side of the plate to cheer him up and takes it to him
He was still facing the window, looking at the chirping birds together connecting heads
"Uth kar bheto" Lakshmi says, sitting next to him, he gave in cuz she looked beautful in her red saree, smiling and holding a tray of food in front of him

He allowed her to sit next to him, her saree was draped perfectly, her hair was styled effortlessly, while she fidgeted with the food to make a bite for Rishi
He waited for her hands to be fully dipped in batter, so he could pretend to clean something off of her face
"Tumhare face par kuch laga hua hai" He lies, trying hard not to smirk
Before Lakshmi could reach her face with her half-battered hands, Rishi claimed
"Rehne do, tumhare haathon par saalan (curry) laga hua hai" He says, before leaning closer to 'pretend' to clean something off her face
His intensity magnified her eyes, which sparkled in the slight tears that were moments away from forming
Her heart raced, the pounding was loud and expressable, Rishi smirked
When a tear fell from her eye, Rishi cleaned it from her cheek with his warm fingertips, to which Lakshmi broke loose and started crying bitterly
Rishi took the food platter from her hand and placed it on the bedside table, she couldn't stop him from hugging her, as her hands were still coated with curry; and it was not like she wanted to either
She needed him, whether she liked it or not, Rishi hugged her with full zest to which she closed her eyes
