Melhotra House

Neil smiled as the password of the secret folder got accepted. . It had taken him days to find it. His eyes widen as he went through the hidden folder on Radhika's laptop, it was her who had injured Diwaker. Sweat bead covered his forehead as he realised she used an ice dagger. Leaving no proof behind, he quickly jumped to the other page and found what she had in her mind to get Saral out in open. She was growing smart day by day and he feared her taking any dangerous step. ''Neil!!!'' he heard his farther calling out for him. After the little stint in the party, two families had decided to get Neil Samaira married. They feared the kids taking any unwanted decision. Today, his family was officially visiting Mehra's, but without Radhika. When his father asked the reason for leaving Radhika behind he refused to say a word. Strangely, Prerna too supported the idea and Nihal understood. They hated Arjun, he didn't wanted to argue hence he agreed. ''What are you doing with my laptop AD''

He froze , he didn't plan to get caught. But was now caught. Calmly he switched the machine off and turned to Radhika, ''Snooping around. I want to all that you are hiding''

''Could you find it'', She asked with a playful smile.Neil took a step and cupped her cheek, ''Birdie, you are important . Please don't risk yourself'' Radhika felt the pain in his voice. With a smile she held his hands, ''I won't promise anything. I will risk every time I can keep you guys safe'' . He knew nothing will stop her , ''AD and Birdie. Never forget this Radhika, nothing without me. '' He extended his palm in a silent gesture ,expecting her to promise. She looked at his palm and then his eyes. Only he had the power to bend her. She closed her eyes once before hugging him tight, ''Fine, as you say'' Neil chuckled hearing the annoyance in her voice. Wrapping his arms around her , he lifted her up for a second making her squeal. ''Go now. I don't want Akshay Mehra to change his mind'' She gently pushed him.

''If he does, I am going to elope with Sam'' Neil's reply made her laugh. They heard an angry Prerna , Neil threw a flying kiss to Radhika before fleeting off the stairs. Through her balcony she watched , Nihal giving strict security instructions before leaving the drive way. She now had ample time to think on how to tighten the noose around Saral's neck.

Mehra Mansion

Sam scowled at Arjun, who couldn't stop laughing watching her in ethnic attire. ''Stop it bhai or you will repent for the day you taught me self defence''

Arjun controlled raising his palms in surrender , his eyes went to her again and he doubled up with another fit of laughter. Sam stomped charging at him when Nandini pulled her back, ''No, all your make up will be ruined. Arjun behave'' She warned trying to hide her smile. Sam pouted ''this is why I didn't wanted to wear this. I am done, I am going to change this instant''

Nandini hurriedly grabbed her arm, ''No Sam, after a lot you getting this day. Don't spoil it.'' Sam calmed and nodded. Once Nandini left she quickly picked the deo-bottle from the dresser throwing it at Arjun.

Akshay Mehra welcomed Melhotras warmly. His demure calmed not finding Radhika with them. The families discussed about the wedding plans as Nandini asked the engaged couple to take a walk in the lawn. ''You look worried'' Sam asked noticing a lost Neil

''Let's not discuss it today. It's our day. Let's talk about the our future , our dreams'' She nodded smiling. He suddenly frowned and held her at arm length scrutinizing her from head to toe. Sam's face fell as she waited for another round of mockery , ''You look beautiful Sam'' . She blinked , turning to him she stared at him wide eyed and then smiled wide. ''Keep this image as a memory , I am not going to wear such things after wedding'' . Neil smirked, ''Please don't. It will take hell lot of time to peel them off'' . He threw his back and laughed at her shocked expression . Sam curled her fist and landed a punch on his stomach. With a grunt Neil held his stomach moving two steps back due to the force. She tucked the lose end of her saree into her waist preparing herself for other attack. Neil ducked and then held her arms locking it behind her back, ''I kids will be born with a black belt'' . Sam struggled to free herself, but he tighten it, ''Sorry, but I love teasing you'' . She pouted, ''Marry me Neil and your happy days end'' . That bought another round of laughter from Neil.
