Nandini words shocked everyone.. Vineet immediately moved a step back..

'bhabhi ye aap kya keh rahi hai? Janaki asked, she too was shocked..

' aapne bilkul sahi suna hai Didi.. 'Nandini said..

' chachi.. Aap paagal toh nahi ho gayi hai.. Ye kya anap shanap bole jaa rahi hai aap.. Hosh mein toh hain naa aap 'Ajay yelled over her..

Nandini looked at him with angry gaze' main bilkul hosh mei hoon aur mera deemag bhi bilkul thik hai lekin lagta hai tumhara deemag kharab ho gaya hai jo tumhe apni behan ki zindagi barbad hoti nahi dikh rahi par kissi aur ki bahut fikar ho rahi hai 'she said eyeing vineet who is still shocked..

Sushmita held Nandini hand' aisa maat kijiye bhabhi, sab khatam ho jayega.. 'she pleaded..

' kuch ho jaye mujhe fark nahi padta.. Iski wajah se meri beti ki zindagi barbad hui hai.. Iski wajah se uski shadi tuti hai toh aab yahi uski bharpai karega.. Meri Devika se shadi karke 'Nandini said firmly..

Vineet who was silent till now, broke his silence' main koi shadi nahi karne wala samjhi aap.. Main abhi aur issi waqt yahan se jaa raha hoon 'he said angrily and took a step Nandini held his hand..

She looked at him with fiery eyes' tum kahin nahi jaa sakte.. Jab tak tumhari shadi nahi ho jaati Devika se 'she said firmly..

Vineet jerk her hand and free himself' aap samajhti kya hai khud ko, keh diya naa main nahi karne wala shadi.. Aap janti hai main married hoon, beti hai meri.. fir aap aisa soch bhi kaise sakti hai.. Ye shadi karwake aap sab ki zindagi barbaad kar dengi 'Vineet said angrily..

' kissi ki zindagi barbaad ho mujhe koi fark nahi padta.. Mujhe sirf meri beti se matlab hai 'Nandini said angrily..

This was by now became unbearable for Ajay.. He started shouting
' basss chachi.. Bahut ho gaya, bahut keh liya aapne aur bahut sun liya humne aab aur nahi.. He turn to Vineet.. Vineet jaa apna saman le aa koi zaroorat nahi hai yahan rehne ki..' Ajay said angrily eyeing Nandini..

Nandini slapped Ajay shocking others..

' meine ek baar keh diya vineet yahan se nahi jaa sakta matlab nahi jaa sakta.. 'she yelled..

' main bhi dekhta hoon kon rokta hai mujhe 'Ajay said.. He held Vineet hand and moved towards the door..but stops with a sound of falling something.. They turn and were shocked to see Sushmita lying on the floor.. They rushed to her.. She has fallen down because of heart attack

' Maa.. Maa 'they tried to wake her up but all in vain..

' buaa khadi kya ho doctor ko call karo 'Ajay shouts.. Janaki took her phone to call doctor, Nandini stop her.. Janaki looked at her..

' kahin call karne ki zaroorat nahi hai 'Nandini said..

Vineet gave her a deadly glare and shouts' aapko dikhai nahi de raha maa ko heart attack aaya hai, aap doctor ko call karne se kyun rok rahi hai.. '

Nandini looked at him' bahut pyar karte ho naa apni maa se.. Toh aab unki zindagi tumhare hi hath mei hai.. 'Vineet looked at her confusedly.

' Devika se shadi kar lo, main abhi doctor ko bula lungi tumhari maa bach jayegi.. Nahi toh tum aache se jante ho unke saath kya hoga.'Nandini said shocking vineet...

' aap.. Aap aisa kaise kar sakti hai, maa ki halat toh dekhiye.. Please doctor ko call kijiye please 'Vineet pleaded, tears rolled down his cheeks..

' faisla tumhare hath mei hai ya toh tumhari shadi ya tumhari maa ki maut.. Soch lo 'Nandini said firmly..

Vineet feels helpless.. He looked at Sushmita who is lying down, he then turn to Nandini who is waiting for his response.. Tear roll down his face as he wasn't able to understand what to do.. He can't let Sushmita die nor he can marry then what can he do.. He was in deep thought.. His trail of thought was broken when sushmita started panting.. Ajay and Vineet panicked.. Vineet looked at Nandini

'please call the doctor' he almost begged, tears were continuously flowing down his face..

'toh tum shadi karoge Devika se' Nandini asked..

Vineet didn't had any other choice he can't let Sushmita die he took a deep breath and nodded positively.. A smile crept on Nandini face she called for an ambulance, within some minutes, the ambulance arrived and they took Sushmita, Vineet tried to go along but Nandini didn't let him..

Some man's forcefully took vineet in a room to get him ready for the marriage.. Nandini and Janaki moved to Devika room to dress up her..

Devika room

Devika was sitting in front of dressing table, she was upset with whatever her mother was doing.. She herself feels it wrong but didn't have the courage to speak in front of her mother.. She was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't realise when her mother and Aunt entered her room.. She looked at them..

'aap log yahan' she asked

Instead of replying Nandini asked
'tu taiyar hai naa' Devika nodded..

Janaki looked at Nandini and said 'bhabhi ek baar fir soch lo, kahin jald baji mei koi galat faisla na le lo.. Hum sab jante hai vineet shadi shuda hai aise mei iss shadi ke kya mayne reh jayenge.. Wo toh isse apni biwi bhi nahi manega, fir aap kyun'

Nandini sighed and said 'main janti hoon iss shadi ke koi mayne nahi rahenge aur naa hi vineet isse apnayega.. Par iss shadi ke badh log ye toh nahi kahenge ki iski shadi nahi hui ya shadi tut gayi thi.. Unka muh toh band rahega' she close her eyes and tear slipped down her eyes..

Janaki just sighed as she didn't get what she meant.. They took Devika and moved down to the hall where vineet was already present, a man was standing beside him pointing a gun to his head.. They made Devika sit beside him.. Priest start chanting mantras.. Vineet tried to moved but they threatened him, he set down.. Tears were continuously flowing down his eyes.. He was helpless..

Marriage gets over after sometime and vineet broke down into tears..
