NEXT DAY

"Good morning Princess" Kaira wished Aarchi who entered the kitchen to grab a fruit.

"Morning ma" Aarchi greeted her back and pulled her away from the cooking stove.

"What happened?" Kaira asked excitedly mirroring Aarchi's expression. Aarchi quickly opened her phone and showed Kaira her birthday night pictures she took with Vihaan and those that Vihaan took of hers.

"Oye hoyeee, ladka mehnti hai" Kaira teased Aarchi who blushed like a new bride.

"He's given me a gift too" She said shyly moving her body left and right.

"What has he given?" Kaira asked holding Aarchi's hands.

"I'll show you after I come home" Aarchi was talking to Kaira when Maitri entered the kitchen in a very happy mood which elevated seeing Aarchi and Kaira whispering to each other in low tones.

"Hothon pe aisi baat me dabake chali aayi,
Khul jaye jo yeh baat toh duhai hai duhai" Maitri sang as she entered the kitchen holding her gaze to the two women who looked at her confused. Maitri continued singing until Kaira and Aarchi looked at each other in realisation seeing Maitri stare at them with an extra big smile hinting them that she knew something that she wasn't supposed to know.

"Maitriii" Aryaman called her from the living room. She walked out dancing, teasing the two with the hidden knowledge.

"Where were you? I've been looking for you everywhere" Aryaman asked her, packing his laptop bag.

"Humara zikr toh har pal hua fasaane mein,
Toh kya hua jo thodi der hui aane mein" Maitri replied to Aryaman while looking at Aarchi who paled listening to her. 

"Jawani jaaneman haseen dilruba
Milein do dil jawan nisaar ho gaya
Shikari khud yahan, shikar ho gaya" Maitri sang taking the files away from Aryaman's hands and started dancing with him.

"What are you doing Maitri?" Aryaman asked stopping Maitri from dancing.

"Nothing was just in a good mood" She said smiling.

"I don't understand you at times" Aryaman said shaking his head.

"Haan toh who said that you try to understand me. Your work is to love me endlessly and say yes to everything I ask for and be a good husband" Maitri said sitting on the sofa, pulling her hands behind her head.

"Mohtarma, what will you do for me?" He asked pulling her hands away from her head.

"I'll love you more than me, then I'll irritate you so much that you feel like pulling your hair out but you can't because I like you in this look, looking all cold and broody, like my ASR" She blew him a kiss pulling her heads behind her head and placed her feet on the coffee table.

"Kya musibat gale bandh li hai" He said laughing at her, flicking her forehead.

"Maitri Aryaman Ranawat hai is musibat ka naam" She stood up to bid him farewell. He hugged Kaira and Maitri and rushed to his car where a chauffeur was already waiting for him.

"Bhabhiii" Aarchi stopped Maitri forcing her to sit on the sofa once Aryaman was out of sight.

"Don't tell bhaiyu anything please" Aarchi folded her hands and begged Maitri who laughed cupping her cheek.

"Don't worry I won't tell anyone, but I need the details. Divi also didn't tell me anything so imagine my reaction when I got to know the second party in this" Maitri sat cross-legged on the sofa as Kaira sat on the sofa opposite her.
