———————At Pandya Niwas—————
After dinner later that night, all of the members of Pandya Niwas were sitting in the living room, contemplating what needs to be done. Suman had adamantly refused to come out of her room and had dinner in the room itself. Shiva was pacing around the house, visibly tensed and deep in thought, contemplating his next steps. Rishita had laid her head on Dev's shoulders and they were whispering to each other about how to convince Suman maa. Krish was lying on the sofa with his head on Dhara's lap, while Gaumbi was on the phone with Hardik talking about some work.
"Idea!" shrieked Krish, making everybody jump out of their skin. "Shiva, tu ek kaam kar, tu na Raavi bhabhi ke saath bhaag ke shaadi kar le!" finished Krish, beaming with excitement. His excitement is seen diminishing when he gets a tapli on his head from Dev. And a furious looking Shiva advancing towards him. "Gadhedha! Bina soche samjhe kuch bhi bak tha rehta hai" retorts Shiva, frowning. After seeing Krish cowering behind Gaumbi, shielding himself from harm's way, Shiva walks away, back to his pacing.
Dhara looks at Shiva and worried for his sanity, she keeps a hand on his shoulder reassuringly, saying "Shiva, tu aise tension mat le, main kal subah Maa se baat karoongi aur unhe samjhaane ki poori koshish karoongi, woh zyada der tak naraaz nahi rahengi, hum manake hi rahenge unhe". Shiva gives her a slight smile, appreciating her concern for him saying, "Bhabhi, aap rehne do iss baar jo bhi karna hai main karoongi, kal subah nashte pe maa se main baat kar loonga".
"Chalo ab sab log sone jaao, kal subah uthke Maa se baat bhi karni hai, Pandya store mein bhi bada order aaya hai, wahan bhi kaam pending hai" said Gaumbi, ushering everyone to their rooms.
Krish and Shiva move to their cots in the living room. While Krish goes to sleep, Shiva wonders if he should call his chipkali or if she's already asleep. Even before he can contemplate further his phone rings and a new message pops up. "Aye bhoothnath, so gaya kya?" reads the message from none other than his Chipkali. A smiling Shiva shakes his head and directly calls her, wanting to waste no further time.
Raavi appears on his screen, with a apprehensive look on her face. Before he can ask her, she worriedly questions him, "Kaaki se baat hui? Kya kaha unhone? Mana hi kiya hoga, warna tu khud mujhe call nahi kar leta, mujhe pata tha woh humaare rishte ke liye, kabhi nahi maanegi, main hi umeed leke baith gayi, ab kya hoga, ab toh tu mujhe chod deg——". Only to be cut off by a angry Shiva, who glares at her with his death stare, making her stop. "Main tujhse pehle bhi kaha hai, aakhir baar keh raha hoon, main tujhe kabhi nahi chodoonga, samjhi tu, tu mujhe bole, tab bhi nahi, iss janam mein toh kya, agle saath janam mein bhi tere peeche Bhoothnath ban ke ghoomoonga, iss liye apne mann se yeh baat nikaal ke phek de tu Raavi" reprimands Shiva, with a different level of intensity in his eyes.
He looks away annoyed with her for even considering the thought, only to be met with Raavi's sorry puppy eyed face. "I am sorry, Shiva woh main darr gayi thi, aur iske liye muh se nikal gaya"Closing his eyes for a second, composing himself, Shiva faces Raavi and says, "Agli baar mujhse door jaane ke baare mein mat kehna, already main tujhse kaafi door reh chuke, ab mujhse aur bardaash nahi hoga, aur iss baar chaahe aandhi aaye ya toofan, Shiva aur Raavi ko ek hone se koi nahi rok sakta". Raavi's eye soften at Shiva's words and she promises him saying, "I promise Shiva, main dobara aisi baatein nahi bolungi, aur mujhe poora vishwas hai ki tu kaaki ko mana lega, ab jaane de iss baat ko, hum kuch aur baat karte hai"
"Kuch aur? Acha haan, waise ek baat bata tere kal exam ke results aane waale hai na?" asked Shiva inquisitively. Raavi's eye widened at his question and she realized, "Arrey haan, kaaki ke tension mein toh main bhool hi gayi, hey Somnath, bas kal thodi apni Kripa banaye rakhna" folding her hands in prayer. "Har cheez mein tension leti hai, tere exams sahi toh gaye the, toh phir acha hi hoga" reassured Shiva. "Aur waise bhi uske baad tujhe bohut kuch aur bhi karna hai, job dhoondna hai, interview dena hai, khoob tarakki karni hai, iss liye tu Maa ki chinta mujhe pe chod aur apne career ke baare mein soch" he added.
"Main sach mein bohut lucky hoon ki mujhe Somnath ne tujh jaise saathi diya hai, jo mere liye itna sochta hai, tujhe pata hai Shiva, bachpan se na main humesha dekhti thi ki tu jin se bhi pyaar karta tha, unn ke liye kitna kuch karta tha, koi bhi musibat aaye unke saamne tu dhaal ban ke khada rehta tha, aur maine humesha se wish kiya tha, ki agar tu mujhse pyaar karta toh tu woh sab mere liye bhi karta, aur aaj mujhe asli mein woh dekhne ko aur jeene ko mil raha hai, aur main bohut bohut khush hoon" said Raavi, her face radiating with happiness making Shiva beam with pride at being the reason for her smile.
"Lucky toh tu hai, par mujhe kya mil raha hai, mera toh patta kat gaya, kahaan mujhe laga tha koi pari milegi aur kahan mili yeh Chipkali" said Shiva teasingly, gesturing at her with his hand and pretending to make a disgusted face. Squinting her eyes at him, Raavi snaps "Aye Bhoothnath, khud ko Ranveer Singh samajhta hai kya ki koi pari maang raha hai, zyaada bola na, main tujhse baat nahi karoongi, phir dhoond lena teri pari ko" crossing her arms and looking away.
"Wahin toh, main soch hi raha tha, ki koi pari——" stopped Shiva mid track, looking at Raavi's face which looked like it would explode any second. "Mazaak kar raha tha main, aur waise bhi tujhe toh pata hi hai, main sirf Raavi ka Shiva ban ke rehna chahta hoon" said Shiva diligently, making Raavi blush and say, "I love you, Bhoothnath". "I love you too, Chipkali". As the night darkens, they fall asleep, whilst talking to each other.
————————— Mami's house———————
Raavi is woken up by a yell from her Maasapaa, who says "Raavi dikri, jaldi neeche aa jaa, koi tujhse milne aaya hai". She quickly freshens up and comes down, bouncing in her steps, thinking it is Shiva. Only to be horrified to see Suman kaki in their living room, giving her a rather stoic look. She gulps thinking this is the end.
