Raizadas are ready for their home as moon starts to grace its presence. Nani was the first one walking towards the bus alongside with khushi. Suddenly someone tapped nani's shoulder, she turns and saw a lady in her daughter's age and the face also seems to be familiar.

Nani: May i know you?

Women: aap ratna ki maa haaina? ( you are ratna's mother right?)

Nani nods with confused face, "yes, you?"

Women: Maaji i am radhika remember ratna's friend, your neighbour.

Nani smiled after recognised her, radhika betiya tum? How are you?

Radhika: I am fine maaji. Aur aap? Where's ratna? I didn't see her after my marriage, i called her twice that too before 20 years. After i went abroad i lost contact with her. Is she here maaji? asked excitedly as she is going to see her best friend.

Nani smiles sadly, "Ratna is no more"

Radhika: What?? Shrieked shockingly. Sorry maaji when did it happen? Where're her children? She has one son and daughter right.

Nani: 14 years ago she died, yeah her children are with us.

Now all family members came there nani introduce all of them, when khushi turn comes she herself hurriedly introduced herself 'I am payal jiji's sister' Radhika smiles at her, finally she came to know about her, maybe she can ask her hand through ratna's amma. But she has to first confirm this with his son and granddaughter.

Radhika: Rajiv, Ruhi come here they came near her and she introduced them to raizada family.

Ruhi: Hi khushi aunty !

Khushi smiles and hugs her, "Hi!"

Nani: khushi betiya you already know her?

Khushi: haan nani, today morning only i met her. She helped me when i am to hit a stone.

Ruhi comes to nani & bend down to get her blessings, nani too blesses her and wishes her smilingly. Rajiv to get blessings.

Radhika: Now where are you maaji? Delhi or Lucknow?

Nani: Delhi, where is your bahu?

Radhika: She died in accident maaji, said sadly and further adds rajiv gets a transfer from Mumbai so we are in Delhi from past 3 months.

Mami: Hello hi bye bye...we are getting late sasuma, my makeup is getting spoiled, said while dusting her cleaned face.

Nani: Manorama warned sternly and turns to radhika 'come to home one-day radhika, aakash give your card there is contact number in the card you can call me"

Radhika: ok maaji, Namaste...greeted smilingly and take her blessings.
