"Pain??"
" Haan wo actually I wanted to drink water and as habited I used my right hand and the pain Aah"
"Sonakshi pain killer li" he asked now sitting alert
" Haan but koi faydaa nahi ho Rahi"
Now tears started to fall as the pain was immense
"Sona mujhe kyon nahi uthaya"
" I thought that you must be tired and"
Dev just engulfs her in a hug but softly

" Sona kal tension mein Maine teen alooo ke chips ke packet aur ek PURA cake kha Gaya"
" What???"
" Haan "
" Dev you know na that it is not healthy and still tum pagal ho"
" Maybe but is the pain gone"
" Hmm"
"My plan worked see I diverted your attention and now your pain has vanished . Now come sleep before it returns"

Sonakshi does Aarti of Shravan and Pushkar
" May you win the case "
She says while putting the tikka on their heads

In the court

"So I request the prosecutor to initiate the court"
" Yes my lord . My lord Sonakshi Bose , Avery humble and sweet person parents died on 19 April 1997 by a car accident . It may be appealing to be an accident but in actual it was a murder. Mr Sujoy Bose , father of Sonakshi Bose a week before his death had written a page in his diary . If I have your permission I would like to read it out"
" Permission granted"
" In the diary it is written
I don't know why but I am feeling that 19 April 1997 will be the last day of mine in this world. My brother who normally deals with the meetings outside office and has never allowed me to do so has been forcing me to go out and attend the meeting with mr Shah . I have no idea what's going on in his mind but whatever it is it is not good. I know that for the last five years he has been finding ways to snatch my company but least does he know that I have already named my company after Sona, once he gets to know it will pain but I do hope that Sona is safe.

Sir the ironical thing here is that the day he was sent he was killed by him"
" Objection my lord a mere piece of paper can't prove him guilty"
" My lord I have a cctv footage of the day in the company so may I "
"Sure"
He plays the footage in which a fight between the two brothers is shown
" My lord I would like to call Ms Shalini Gupta in the witness box"
" Permission granted"
She comes and stands in the box
" So mrs Shalini who are you to Sonakshi"
" Her neighbour"
" What were her uncles and aunts relationship with her"
" Very bad . After Sujoy bhaiya died daily at nights we could hear her screams. The next morning when she would go to school she would have scars on her body. Her eyes would be swollen and .... Her hand would have burn marks "
" Thanks mrs Gupta . I would now like to call mrs Sonakshi in the witness box "
She comes
" So mrs whatever mrs Gupta said was it true "
"Yes . It is true they would beat me daily and even threatened to kill me if I told anyone. As soon as I turned 18 they got me married to that beast who would force..... Force himself on me. His parents would treat me as a slave. My life had become hell with them"
"My lord I would like to cross question the two witnesses "

" That day mr Bijoy Bose created such a scene in the office"
" Could you explain in detail"
" Sir it was 23 april 1997 , the day I announced his will to the staff members . As soon as I told them that Sonakshi was the the legal holder of the company mr Bijoy started to shout break things and also threatened to kill her ."
" Please note my lord threatened to kill her what did his wife do "
" She started to bad mouth the poor soul and also wished to kill her she even held an knife and was about to kill her but she was lucky that the employes stopped her"
" Thank you mr to you may sit down . Next I would like to call a few employs of her company"

" My lord mr Bijoy Bose had cut the wire of the breaks and for pricing this I would like to call Ramesh , gardener of their house"
"So mr Ramesh what did you see that day"
" Sir that day I saw Bijoy sir with scissors and he was doing something with the wires in the car and when I enquired he told me to mind myown business and ashamed ma'am asked me to go home and then In the evening only Sujoy sir took the car and..."
" My lord not just did he kill Sujoy but he also sold his daughter Sonakshi the very next day to ritwick who subjected her to physical and mental torture . Here are the medical reports sir "
He hands it over
"My lord all witnesses and proofs show that Bijoy Bose ashamed Bose and ritwick are all the culprits "
" Mr Ahuja do you have anything to say"
" Sir I need time for more investigation"
" Objection my lord mr Bijoy Bose would use his power to clear all the victims and bribe them "
" Sorry mr Ahuja the result will be declared today itself ."
Aditya goes back and sits and so does Shravan

The police take away the trio and devakshi rush up to Shravan
" Thank you"
" Bhabhi why are you thanking me if you want to thank someone then thank you hubby cause all the proofs he found"
" Dev thank you"
" Isme thanks ki kya baat hain I am you husband and you are my wife so" he shrugs his shoulders
