===================================

In just a short while, after completing the farewell rituals, Sanjay, Shalini, Preeti, Vikram, Anokhi, and Rishabh left for Vikram’s house. Meanwhile, the others took Shivika to Shergill Mansion.

Vikram’s house

Shalini performed the aarti for Vikram and Preeti and then welcomed Preeti into the house. Anokhi quickly brought a large tray filled with milk and a few rose petals and made Vikram and Preeti sit facing each other.

Anokhi said, “Well, I don’t need to explain because everyone already knows about this ritual. So no chatter, let’s start the game!”

Just as Anokhi was about to drop the ring into the tray, Vikram stopped her and said, “Wait a minute. First, tell me whose side you’re on.”

“What do you mean, Bhaiya? Does it matter whose side I’m on?” Anokhi asked.

Vikram narrowed his eyes at her and said, “It does matter, kiddo. If you’re on your Bhabhi Maa’s side, I’m sure you’ll purposely drop the ring toward her so she can get it easily.”

Hearing this, Anokhi pouted and said, “Bhaiya, are you calling me a cheater? Do I look like someone who cheats?”

In the same tone, Vikram replied, “Yes, little sister. Kids with innocent faces like yours are the ones who cheat in school, and teachers think such an innocent child could never cheat.”

Everyone burst out laughing at Vikram’s comment, and Anokhi pouted even more. She said, “Fine, then I won’t drop the ring.”

As she started to get up, Preeti grabbed her hand and made her sit back down, saying, “Anu, where are you going? And you stop it, Vikram! How much will you tease her?”

Hearing Preeti, Vikram fell silent. Anokhi teased, “Wow, Bhaiya. Just one word from Bhabhi Maa, and you’re quiet. Bhabhi Maa is a strong player. I’m on Bhabhi Maa’s side, but I won’t cheat. I’ll drop the ring in the middle.”

Anokhi dropped the ring into the milk and swirled it. Both Vikram and Preeti started searching for the ring. After some time, Vikram found it.

Anokhi encouraged Preeti, saying, “Bhabhi Maa, win quickly. You have to win!”

The second time, Preeti found the ring. She found it the third time as well.

Noticing the glow on Preeti’s face after her win, Vikram held her hand in the milk. Preeti looked at him in surprise. Everyone noticed their hands paused in one place but didn’t say anything.

Anokhi said, “Bhaiya-Bhabhi Maa, why have you stopped? Did someone find the ring?”

When Anokhi grabbed Vikram’s hand and lifted it, everyone saw that Vikram was holding Preeti’s hand, and the ring was in Preeti’s hand.

Shalini teased, “Oh, so that’s why your hands stopped! This naughty one held her hand.”

Vikram smiled and said, “Hey, I held my wife’s hand. I can hold it whenever I want. Now no one can stop me.”

Everyone smiled at his words, and Preeti’s face flushed. Her cheeks turned pink with embarrassment, and she silently cursed Vikram for putting her in this situation. Then Anokhi said, “But who’s the winner? Well, since the ring is in Bhabhi Maa’s hand, she’s the winner!”
