Akshara Kairav Vansh and Aarohi finally reached home at night and were surprised to find that all the family was there to welcome them. Manish came to Akshara and Aarohi, pulled them into a hug, and looked at them lovingly.
"Missed you so much, Meri Bachhiyo," he expressed while patting their heads. (Missed you so much, My girls.)
Akshara returned his hug with a smile on her face, but Aarohi just stood there without returning the hug; she just removed his hand from her shoulder. Seeing this, everyone's mood dampened.
Aarohi was seething. In the past, whenever she came back home, she was the only one who received this kind of affection from Manish. Now, having to share it with Akshara felt like her worst nightmare of being sidelined by the family was becoming her new reality. Not knowing that her own vecious behavior towards her sister might be the reason she will be sidelined.
"Aaru beta kya hua, are you not happy to see us?" Akhilesh asked, feeling a little hurt by her cole and rude behavior. (Aaru beta, what happened? Are you not happy to see us?)
"AG aap logo ko main apni feelings kabhi nahi samjha paaungi because you all are under her magic, which won't let you see her true evil self." Aarohi snorted and walked off to her room before anyone could scold her for her cruel remarks. (AG, even if I try, I can never make you all understand my feelings because you all are under her magic, which won't let you see her true evil self. )
And once again, her cruel words chipped away at Akshara's spirit; she just smiled as she knew it would hurt her family even more to see her tears, so she pretended to be unfazed and walked towards Akhilesh.
"Aree AG yeh aapne apna kya haal banaa liya?" She asked with mock horror. (Oh AG, what have you done to yourself?)
Akhilesh looked at her; his disheartened expression was now replaced by confusion.
"Matlab? Main kuch samjha nahi." (What do you mean? I don't get it.)
"Maine Abhi aapke sir par poore teen safed baal dekhe." She whispered loudly, so everybody heard her. (I just saw three whole white hair strands on your head.)
"kaha? Bhaai saab aapne mere baal dhang se color kyu nahi kiye." Akhilesh complained to Manish while everybody laughed at his antics, and just like that, the thick tension left the atmosphere. (Where? Bhai saab, why didn't you color my hair properly?)
All of them sat in the living room for a while and talked about the trip, and then Akshara showed them what she got for them as a souvenir from Jaipur. After talking for some time, they all retired to their rooms. After helping Mimi settle in bed, Akshara came to her room only to find Kirav sitting on her bed, typing away on his phones.
When he saw her coming towards the bed, he slipped the phone in his pocket.
"Bhaiya aap yaha itini raat ko?" she asked, confused. (Bhaiya, what are you doing here so late at night?)
"Tujhse kuch zaroori baat karni thi." Kairav informed her, gesturing for her to sit beside him. (I needed to talk to you about something important.)
She slumped beside him. "Kahiye Bhaiya, aapko kya kahena tha?" (Tell me, Bhaiya, what did you want to say?)
He took a deep breath before starting the conversation.
"Akshu teri ankle kaise hain ab?" he asked. (Akshu, how is your ankle now?)
"Ekdum achhi hai Bhaiya dekheye ab bilkul bhi dard nahi hain," she said while doing a little stretching exercise. (It's perfectly fine, Bhaiya. Look, there's no pain at all now.)
