The next morning came by quicker than expected. It was a peaceful morning and today was the day , the names were going to be written and the legacy was going to be forwarded to the next generation.

It was breakfast time and everybody except krish was sitting at the breakfast table. Shivani was also staying at the sehgal mansion to look after krish , she didn't want to leave her alone in such a condition.

"Mujhe aap sabse kuch important baat kerni h" krish said coming downstairs in her formal suit ready for the office attracting everyone's attention.

"Kya baat h beta?" Pushpaji asked. Krish came towards her and stood beside her chair keeping her one hand on it as Pushpaji was sitting on the head of the family seat everybody could see and hear krish properly.

"Maa hum chahte h ki is sadiyon se chalti aa rhi pratha ko hum yahi rok de , I don't want to carry forward this tradition!"

"yeh aap kya keh rhe h? Sadiyon purana sath h in pariwaro ka hum aise kaise is pratha ko rok sakte h" Mr Zaid said standing up from his seat , everyone else too stood up sensing the seriousness of the matter.

"Mr Malik hum in dono pariwaro ke sath ke khilaf nhi h. Balki ye dono parivar to sadiyon se ek dusre ki dhal bante aaye h. Jab bhi musibat aayi h ye do pariwar hamesha ek dusre ke liye khade rhe h aur shayad agar hum bhi apna haq wapas le paye to vo apke aur apke pariwar ke bina mumkin nhi tha...lakin hum is pratha ke khilaf h" krish tried to explain her point of view to him.

"Aisa kyu krishu?" Pushpaji asked confusingly. "Come on maa! Hum sab 21st century main jee rhe h. Yaha insaan ki pehchan uske kaam se hoti h. Uske hardwork uske talent se. Naki kisi sadiyon purane tradition se. Yeh pratha us zamane ki h , jab Raja apne rajyon pe raj Kiya kerte the , we live in a democratic country now! It's not the kings rule anymore, nobody needs to follow anybody's orders , koi kisi ka naukar ya maalik nahi h. Everybody is free to live. Aur to aur agar papa yaha hote to vo bhi yahi chahte , aap to jante h" Mr Malik knew Mr Sehgal also wanted to end this tradition at his time.

"Papa bhi chahte the ki ye tradition khatam ho jaye. Par unke papa nhi mane , but hum sab to sath milkar yeh ker hi sakte h. Yeh do pariwar dost bankar rahange..Aap bataiye Mr Malik kya dad ne apko kabhi apne dost se kam samjha tha?" He nodded in no without any hesitation.

"To fir ye do pariwar dosto ki tarah kyu nhi reh sakte?" She asked.

"Tune sahi kaha krishu , hum Teri baat se sehmat h" pushpaji also said "ye pratha aage nhi badhegi , let's put an end to this legacy respectfully" she said more like ordered and everybody nodded "sahi kaha apne bhabhi" Zaid also said agreeing with her.

Everybody agreed to krish while she gave a look to haseena as if saying " This doesn't mean I'll let you free. I'll still make your life hell".

The days were passing like this , everything was getting back to normal except krish and haseena's relationship. The people had excepted the truth of their favourite Rockstar as the chairman of Vedas and were even happy with it. Love sparks were growing between kritika and vihaan , whereas krish didn't leave any chance to make haseena suffer.

She was true when she said she would make her life hell and she wasn't leaving any chance to do so. Haseena tried talking to her many times to tell her the truth but Krish's behaviour towards her had changed so much that she wasn't ready to listen anything she had to say. Both of them were suffering and santu and Shivani were worried for krish and haseena very much.
