Anika was still thinking about the lady she saw in the hospital.

'Maine unhein kahi dekha hai. Par mujhe yaad kyun nahi aa raha hai??'

She was walking to and fro in her room when a hand encircled her waist and pulled her closer.

A smile appeared on her lips.

'Shivaay.....'

'Kya aap bata sakthe hain ki meri beewi kya soch rahi thi?

"Apki beewi ye soch rahi thi ki aapke upar next time paani kaise phenkna hai"

"Acha...Paanika mode..Not bad"

He smirked and made her sit in the bed.

'Ab masti chodo aur batao aisi kya baat hai jo tumhein paresaan kar rahi hai'

Anika passed a weak smile.
"Aap jaldi padh lete hain na mere dil ki baat?"

"Of Course..Shivaay Singh Oberoi jo hoon."
He made his signature step.

Anika stood up and walked towards the door.

"Shivaay aaj jab main Sahil ko leke hispital gayi thi maine wahan ek aurath ko dekha. Pata nahi kyun mujhe aise lagta hai ki main unhein jaanti hoon. Par mujhe wo yaad nahi aa rahi."

She looked troubled.

"Dont worry Anika. Hum pata lagaenge."

He hugged her.

"Chulbul!!!!"
Omkara shouted for his new friend.

Chulbul came.

" Kahaan tha tum subah se?"

"Wo hum apne maa se milne gaye the."

"what? Tumne mujhe bataya kyun hahi? Main bhi saath chaltha."

"Nahi aap hamare malik hai. To aap..."

"Shh...tum mere best buddy ho. Duniya main sirf kuch hi log hai jispe main bharosa kartha hoon. Aur tum unmainse ek ho. Kabhi mujhse jhoot mat bolna."

Chulbul's eyes filled up.

He sidehugged her and went.

"Omkara ji humpe kitna viswas karte hain. Tab ka hoga jab unko pata chalega ki hum Chulbul nahi Gauri hai. Hey Sankarji ye kaisi duvidha hai." She thought.

Swethlana was watching all this.
"Bechara Omkara..Jab use ye pata chalega ki uski best buddy bhi jhooti hai tab to wo poori tarah se toot jayega. Wait and watch ki main tumhara kya kartha hoon Chul...Bul."

Rudra entered his room. He couldnt find his Sumo.

Just then the door of washroom opened and Saumya came out.

She was shocked to see Rudra.

Rudra noticed her eyes were red.
She quickly lowered her head an tried to go. But he held her hand.

"Kya hua Saumya? Tum ro rahi thi?"

"Nahi wo mere aankh main kuch chali gayi thi."

" Saumya...ye bohoth purana excuse hai. Mujhe pata hai tum ro rahi thi. Batao kya baat hai."

"Tumhain pata hai ki main excuses bana rahi hoon to kya tum samajh nahi sakti ki main kisise ye baat share nahi karna chahti?

Rudra was hurt.
"Mujhse bhi nahi?"

She looked at him.

He could see so much pain in her eyes.

She wanted to tell him. But she couldnt. She was forced to.

"Nahi..." and she left.

Next morning

All were assembled in the hall selecting dresses.

" Tum apne liye dress nhi select karogi?" Swethlana asked Chulbul.

Jhanvi: tum teek tho ho na? Hum lehenge aur saree dekh rahi hai.
Sherwni nahi.

Badima: Jhanvi, lagtha hai ķi is jaleel jalani ko apni banayi hui roti ki asar pad rahi hai.

Sweth: Ab jab ladki jaisi harkath karogi to.........

Om: Shutup Swethlana. Ye naukar hai iska matlab ye nahi ki tum ise kuch bhi keh sakthe ho.

Swethlana: Oh really Omkara? Itna bhatosa apne best buddy par.

Om: Khud se zyada.

Swethlana laughed and went to Chulbul.
" Tum khud Om ko sach bataogi ya......"

"Sultana ji aap...."

She couldnt complete.

Swethlana pulled off her wig and her hair fell loose

Everyone was shocked.

"Bhaiya....Chulbul to sach main Bulbul hai...ab pata chal O ko itna jhatka kyun lagtha tha. Hamara O bigda nahi" Rudra whispered in Shivaays ears.

"Shutup Rudra"

Swethlana: Ye ladka nahi ladki hai.

Sabse bada jhatka Omkara ko laga tha.

Om: G....Gaurri....

He trailed off.

Jhanvi: Tum jaante ho use?

Om's eyes shot up. His eyes were full of anger.

"Omkara hum samjha sakte hain..." gauri tried to reason.

"CHUP!!! Ek shabd nahi. Niklo...Niklo"

"Om...."

"Tumne mera trust thod diya. Tumne phir se ye prove kiya ki tum ek laalchi aurat ho jise sirf doosron ki ghar barbad karna aati hai. " he shouted.

He pushed her to the floor.

J: Omkara...ye kya kar rahe ho tum?

He didnt listen.

"Tum yahaan humein lootne ayi thi na...Bareilly walon se man bhar gaya tha jo yahan aa gyi?"

And he continued to shout at her releasing all his anger.

Gauri couldnt bear more.

"Bas...aapne bohoth bol liya Omkara. Humein apke paison ki zaroorath nahi häi.
Hum to aapke izzat karte hain.
Humari majboori thi aisa karna. Humein nahi patha tha ki aap yahaan rehthe the.
Aur aap humein bhala bura keh rahi hai.
To aap khudko dekhiye. Aap kehte hai ki aapko apne paapa se nafrat hai.
Lekin aap bhi to unke tarah hai jo apni PATNI ke saath aisa kartha hai..."

"Patni??" All asked including Swethlana.

Om: Nikal jao Gauri!!!

She looked at him for sometimes and left from there angrily.

Jhanvi: Om...wo ladki kya keh rahi thi?

Dadi: Haan puthar...wo apne apko tumhari patni kyun keh raha hai??

Pinky: Bolna...beta..

Tej: Ab batayega bhi ya chup rahega??

"Wo meri patni hai.."Om said trying to vontrol his tears.

And he explained them everything.

He broke down and left.

Shivaay and Rudra followed him.

"Om.."Shivaay called.

Om looked at him and hugged them both.

"Duniya main koyi bhi bharose ke layak nahi hain bhaiya. Jispe maine aankh band karke bharosa kiya usine mujhe dhokha diya. Wo..
Gauri....."

He cried.

Shivaay: Om...tu strong hai roega nahi. Aur jab tak ye Great Wall Of Shivaay zinda hai kuch galat nahi hoga. I know what to do.

He hugged both Rudra and Om
"All for one, one for all."
