V: Anji? Kya hua tumhe………………

Anjali turns around and there was ATUL! Anjali looked at Nikki and nikki said…………..ab confusion door hua?

Anjali runs to Atul and hugs him! This is the most possessive hug in the world! More then Armaan's hugs! She doesn't want to let go….in that one moment she made a discovery………..Atul means the world to her!

The Mehendi is over and it's the night before the Big Day!

A: Nani……….

All the girls gather in the room and share some beautiful family moments together! This is afterall Ridhima's last night in the house………….

After the emotinol talks Ridhima is ready to sleep…..she can feel her heartbeat go up up up and then *tring* Text message from Armaan it reads……

So gayi kya?

She replies: bas abho sone ja rahi thi…..kya hua neend nahi aa rahi

He writes: daar lag raha hai

She replies: good night armaan

He writes: kal raat itni asani se nahin chodon ga……….

Ridhima gets shy and has the biggest smile on her face ever! And she cant think of how to reply…..she thinks for a good 10 minutes….and then replies……….kal raat main khud nahin choot na chahati!

Precap: SHAADI DAY!
