"Picnic? Really Chachu?" asked Piyu happy. He lifted her and walked to the hall. "Yes we are going on weekend to farm house for picnic" said Sanskar and kissed her cheek. "You are the best chachu in the world" said she and kissed his cheek and encircled her hand around his neck. "You are the best princess in the world" said he smiling. "Waa. Today sun has risen from west oh what?" asked Sujata who was putting the jam to the toast. "Why mom?" asked Sanskar sitting on his chair. Piyu ran to sit in her place. "You are talking about Picnic really?" asked she. He gave her a fake smile and said "Why can't I talk? I have my tongue see" said he putting his tongue out and showing her. "Oh I thought it's called tooth and is used for chewing" said Sujata widening her eyes. Sanskar put his tongue back in his mouth and huffed. Piyu chuckled looking at him. "Your mom was always the winner of Debate competition in school every single year. You cannot win with her in Sarcasm" said Ram and chuckled. "And how do you know?" asked Sanskar. "I was her senior in School" said he. "OMG mom you never told me yours is a love marriage" said Sanskar widening his eyes. "Oye Ghadhe ours was arranged marriage only. I did not knew him but he knew about me" said Sujata hitting his head playfully. Sanskar pouted looking at her. "Drama tho you do like your dad only" said Sujata nodding her head.

"Where is Ragini?" asked Sujata for which Sanskar choked. She patted his head and made him drink water. "Mom wo" said he. "Will you tell me today only or should I take an appointment?" asked she. "I was tired maa. Yesterday we came very late na so was sleeping" said Ragini descending from the stairs. "So why is he taking so much time to say that" asked she. "I told him not to tell but I will speak to you about this. My mistake na maa. I woke up late and you have to prepare breakfast sorry maa" said Ragini and Sujata caressed her cheek and said "It's okay beta. Some days you also need rest na. I don't mind doing all this" "Now you sit I will serve" said Ragini and made Sujatha sit and served everyone. "What is wrong with her. She is behaving like nothing happened. Gosh this girl will kill me with confusion someday" Sanskar thought within himself. "AJ?" asked Ragini. "He was feeling hungry. I fed him already. He must be playing" said Sujata. "I will give him medicines and come" said she and walked to Adarsh's room.

"AJ what are you searching?" asked Ragini entering his messed up room. "Pari's book" said he and she looked at him confused. "Arrey there was pink shining book of Pari. I had kept it in her box. It is missing" said he and looked around worried. Ragini was not understanding anything. "AJ... AJ... relax" said she and held him from his shoulder. "Ragu Pari's book" said he in a choking voice. "Your Ragu is there na I will search it" said she. "But why do you want it?" asked she as she made him sit on the bed. "It had Pari's photos. Lot's of Photos which I did not have" said he pouting. "Okay I will search you relax" said she and caressed his cheek and he nodded his head pouting.
"No AJ. I searched all the room it isn't there" said Ragini after arranging the room. "It was here only Ragu. I want it" said he waving his hands in air. "Okay I will search other places also okay relax now" said Ragini. "Adi bhai we are going for Picnic to farmhouse on weekend" said Sanskar entering Adarsh's room holding Piyu. "Really?" asked Adarsh with wide open eyes. "Weekend. I can't be away from here for so long" thought Ragini and her face turned pale as worry covered her mind. Sanskar observed her. "What is bothering you Ragini?" he told in his mind.

"What is this?" said Rohan removing a paper from his Jacket's pocket. "Initiate Phase two. Romeo" he read and smirked. He remembered Ragini hugging him. He understood she placed it in his pocket. "Wicked" said he smiling.
"Are you sure about this?" asked Swara when he showed her the paper. "She has told us to initiate second phase and we have to do this" said Rohan and looked at Sharmishta who was looking worried. "Maa" said Swara placing her hand on Sharmishta's shoulder. "You remember what she told?" asked Sharmishta.

"Maa this is very dangerous and I cannot take risk in case of Shona dee's life" said Ragini when she was getting ready for marriage. "Ragu bacha it is dangerous for you also na?" asked she cupping her face. "I will tolerate anything for me maa. But Shona dee's life is most important for me now. If we could save Piyu canceling this marriage I would have told Shona dee to refuse the proposal initially only. But if any one of us won't be there; protecting Piyu will be next to impossible job" said Ragini and wore the Mang teeka. "If Rohan was not kidnapped yesterday I wouldn't have doubted on Maheshwari's but now after getting a threatening call I'm sure someone is involved from their side in this. Now I have to sit instead of Shona dee in the Mandap. I cannot let her sacrifice her love and moreover her life for this mission" said Ragini and pulled the Ghungat to cover her face.
