ROYS'

EPILOGUE

When Siddharth walked out of his room after 10 minutes as Ruchika has texted that she is coming home, she saw everyone looking at his bhabhi shocked. He frowned. What happened in the span of 10 minutes?

Akshara asked firmly - Mai kuch puch rahi hu Vicky! Can you take care of security and arrangements?

Vikranth didn't know what to say. He was actually planning to go to Kerala. He trusted his team but the brother in him wanted to make sure his bhaiyya is safe! 

Siddharth broke the silence - Kaha jaana hai aapko bhabhi?

Devansh answered for Akshara - Bhabhi ko Kerala jaana hai!!

Siddharth - WHAT?! 

Siddharth gave an incredulous look to his bhabhi and turned to Vikranth who looked ready to say YES. He knew that expression very well. He looked at his bhaiyyu for him to speak something. If anyone had the chances of succeeding in negotiation with Akshara, that was his bhaiyyu. None of them could stop her. With their bhaiyya, they can almost do everything. Shout, fight, if needed blackmail.. but Akshara bought none of their tantrums and reasons if she decided to do something. Their bhaiyya didn't stand any chance infront of their bhabhi, they were nothing infront of him!!

Anirudh - Aap nahi jaa sakte hai bhabhi! If you go out, it would be an open invitation. If at all anything happens to you, the things that follow would be nothing short of World War 3, bhabhi. Itna violence chahiye kya hume bhabhi? 

Anirudh couldn't help the sarcasm. 

Akshara glared Anirudh. Anirudh didn't change his stance. Akshara sighed - Abhi ko meri zarurat hai Ani. Isse zyada mai kuch nahi keh sakti. Aur kya itna dar rahe ho??? 

She looked at all the Roy brothers. Akshara - Baat mujhpe aayi isliye itna dar?

Akshara sighed and sat down - Ani, Papa ke time pe hume nahi pata tha ki there is a threat. No one knows about his visits to Kerala except for us and that idiot took the advantage of this. Jab se hume threat ke bare mein pata chala hai.... We have been extra cautious. Itna ki we didn't even give them a chance to attack us. Varna humse powerful kaun hosakta hai yaar, Ani? Ye CM hai iss state ka! Ye khud security agency chalata hai. You are one of the famous lawyers. I am the Home Minister. Tere bhaiyya ki baat hi naa kare tho behtar hai! 

Devansh sat beside her - Phir bhi attack hua na bhabhi!!

Akshara looked at him - Kyuki hum careless the bacha. I ran to help a woman without thinking anything. If I stayed back, kuch hota kya? Nahi hota na!! Itne dino se kuch hua kya? Nahi na!!

Nimisha chipped in - Aap use underestimate kar rahe hai bhabhi!!

Akshara - Aur tum sab over estimate kar rahe ho!! 

Siddharth shook his head - Jo bhi ho Bhabhi!! Baat aapki safety ki hai! If we are being extra cautious, so be it. The point is bhabhi, baat aapki safety ki hai, isliye aap aise baat kar rahe hai. Agar vo threat mere bare mein hota tho? Tab baat karte aap ye sab? Aap please hume convince karne ke liye kuch bhi mat boliye. 

Akshara sighed - Sid, Ye jo bhi hai. Agar vo chahta tho, hume warn kiye bina kuch bhi kar sakta hai!! Jaise Papa ke sath hua! He is just enjoying our plight. And we are giving him more reasons to enjoy. None of us are realizing that someone else is controlling our life!! 

Siddharth sighed and kneeled infront of her. He took hold of her hands - Aapne ye sab bhaiyya se kyu nahi kaha?

Akshara looked away - Vo abhi tak Papa ke death se deal kar rahe hai, Sid! I just wanted him to be in peace.

The brothers' heart pinched. They knew what Vishaal Vardhaan Roy meant to their bhaiyya! In short, his bhaiyya lost his only parent!! 

Akshara turned to Siddharth - Tu bata na... Kitne din hua tere bhaiyya ko teek se haste hue dekh ke? Kitna din hua humne koi family dinner ki?! Hum bahar nahi jaa sakte hai. Teek hai!! Lekin ghar pe bhi shaanti nahi hai na? Aisa kitne din chalega? Mai itne din chup thi, kyuki mai Abhi ko pareshaan nahi karna chahti thi! Ab unhe meri zarurat hai. I can feel it in my bones. Jab mera Abhi ko meri zarurat hai, mai yaha kaise rahu bacha? Please mujhe jane de!
