Part 22

(Really sorry everyone for the delay. Please forgive me. There are not as such Krhea and Shaher scenes in this part but they are on the way😊 I have tried to show some family moments here. Hope you all will like this part.)

Scene starts in Bedi Mansion,
The sound of slap echoed in the whole mansion. Malishka slapped Shaanvi hard.
Advik smirked seeing Shaanvi teary eyed.
Malishka(angrily): How dare you? Uss Sameer ke paas jaane ki himmat bhi kaise hui tumhari?
Shaanvi(teary eyed): Mumma....I don't want to stay in a living relationship with him.
Malishka(angrily): Nahi rehna toh mat raho lekin yeh tum dono ke beech ka maamla hain. Tumne Sameer aur Ishqi ko kyun include kiya?
Shaanvi(teary eyed): Mumma.....main nahi jaane waali thi unn dono ke paas. Par Advik mujhe force karne lag gaya. He said that he will slap me and drag me with him. Mumma mujhe nahi rehna hain uske saath shaadi ke pehle. I am not comfortable.
Advik: Apne hone waali pati ke saath rehna agar comfortable nahi hain iska matlab zaroor kisi aur ke saath tumne.......
Before Advik could speak Malishka slapped him hard.
Malishka(angrily)(sternly): Meri beti ke baare mein ulti seedhi baatein karne ke baare mein sochna bhi mat. Tum Shaanvi ke nakhun ke bhi barabar nahi ho fir bhi main tumhari usse shaadi karwa rahi hoon. Don't cross your limit. Get lost!
Advik left fuming in anger and Shaanvi hugged Malishka teary eyed.
Shaanvi(teary eyed): Thank you mumma....I love you.
Malishka: Hato....leave me.
Shaanvi broke the hug.
Malishka: Yeh mat samajhna ki tumhara rishta toot gaya hain. Shaadi tumhari Advik se hi hogi and stay away from that Sameer.
Shaanvi nodded positively wiping her tears.
Malishka left to her room.
Shaanvi(in mind): Aaj pehli baar mumma ne meri side li. Thank you Kanha jii.....yeh moment dene ke liye.

Scene shifts to Oberoi Mansion,
Everyone was busy in their own work and Kartik was in the kitchen as usual when suddenly someone rang the door bell.

Neelam: Mukesh.....jaa kar dekho kaun hain.
Mukesh went and opened the door only to get happy as well as shocked.
Mukesh(teary eyed)(with a smile): Bhabi? Bhaiya...bhabi yaha.....
Neelam: Kaun hain Mukesh?
Mukesh moved from front of the door only to show a shocking sight to the family members.

Everyone stood up seeing the sight and Kartik's eyes became numb. Just one word escaped his lips i.e., 'Maa'.

There stood Ayush with Shalu. There were bandages on Shalu's body...especially on her forehead. Ayush was supporting Shalu from her shoulder.

Karishma ran to Shalu and hugged her tightly. Tears flew down her cheeks.
Karishma(teary eyed)(cupping Shalu's face): Kaisi ho tum? Aur yeh....aise kaise...kya hua tumhe? Ayush kya hua ise?
Ayush: Isko kisi ne maarne ki kosish ki thi.
Everyone was shocked to hear this.
Karishma(teary eyed): Kya? Kaun? Kyun kiya.....aur koi Shalu ko......isne toh kuch.....
Ayush: Mom....andar aa kar batata hoon.
"Ruko!"said Neelam sternly
Neelam came to Shayush and spoke.
Neelam: Yeh ladki iss ghar ke andar nahi aayegi.
Rishi(teary eyed): Mom please.....Shalu ki halat toh dekhiye.
Neelam: Don't interfere Rishi.....
Saying this Neelam left to the temple and brought an aarti thali.
Neelam(with a smile): Iss ghar ki bahu hain Shalu aur isiliye...bina aarti ke yeh iss ghar mein nahi aayegi.
Everyone sighed in relief hearing this. Shalu came inside and everyone became emotional seeing Shalu after such a long time.

Finally Kartik, Shreya and Sameer came to Shalu teary eyed.
Shalu cupped Kartik's face teary eyed and Kartik broke down into tears, hiding his face in Shalu's saree.
Shalu(teary eyed)(caressing Kartik's hair): Ro mat beta....main bilkul theek hoon.
Kartik(sobbing): Aapki halat aisi thi aur main kuch nahi kar paaya Maa......
Shalu(caressing Kartik's hair)(teary eyed)(smiling): Mujhe pata hain beta....tu ne mujhe dhoondne ke liye jee jaan laga diya tha. Usi liye Mumbai aaya tha na tu?
Kartik nodded positively teary eyed.
Kartik(teary eyed): Par fir bhi......
Shalu(cupping Kartik's face)(teary eyed): Main bilkul theek hoon beta....ab bhool jaa iss baat ko.
Shalu wiped Kartik's tears and asked him to smile.
Sameer came to Shalu and directly hugged her tightly.
Sameer(sobbing): Mujhe Kartik ki tarah itni baatein karna nahi aata isiliye directly bolta hoon. I missed you.
Saying this Sameer hugged Shalu tightly like a child while crying. Shalu reciprocated the hug as well. Shreya hugged Shalu from the other side and they all had a group hug.
Neelam(teary eyed): Par Shalu.....yeh sab hua kaise?
Shalu: Actually......
Shalu narrated the whole incident to the whole Oberoi family.
