Part 7

Shefali: I think you must leave now.

Arjun: Fine, I am leaving. Bye.

Shefali: Bye.

Arjun leaves. Shefali goes to her bedroom and finds Shirley.

Shirley: What were you doing on the terrace?

Shefali: I went there to get fresh and natural air as it was hot here.

Shirley: You could've put on the A/c if you feel hot. By the way, your eyes say that you never slept.

Shefali: Yes, you are right. I didn't sleep as I didn't feel like leaving you and brother.

Shirley: Did you get a new feeling for your brother and sister-in-law? All these years, you were happily going to the hostel. What happened this time?

Shefali: I feel there is no point in studying abroad as one day I have to get married.

Shirley: Yes, you are right. What was my qualification to be the daughter-in-law of this house?

Shefali becomes happy.

Shirley slapped Shefali and said, "You remember your mother when you received a slap, but why didn't you remember us while roaming with that loafer? You went to the terrace to meet him. Isn't it? People have been telling me about your affair with that guy, but I didn't believe it. But you've proved them right. You are not mature, and you got the thought about getting married?

Shefali: Sister.

Shirley: Do you know the other side of your brother? The entire village trembles before him. How dare he come to the terrace late at night, and you went to meet him there? I am not telling you this because you are not because he doesn't love you, but because you are Vincent's sister. Vincent is the son of that father, who took time to accept me as the daughter-in-law of this house. My father gave 1600 shekels of silver and 3200 of gold for our marriage. Do you think Vincent will get that poor man so quickly as his brother-in-law? Just think, who are you, and who is he? There is a vast difference between both of you. You consider Jesus the ultimate God; for him, the Ganges River is sacred. Hence, my sincere advice for you is to forget him.

Shefali: My heart is not a blackboard or a slate that today I write something and tomorrow I erase it.

Shirley: For Jesus' sake, please don't ruin your life. I am your sister-in-law in place of your mother. If your brother learns about your affair with that guy, his wrath will fall on you and him. Go to sleep now. You have to get ready tomorrow.

The next day, Shefali gets into the car and is on the way to the airport. Sameer, Munna, Pandit, and Kartik see that and goes to inform Arjun. As they go to his house, they find him sleeping. All of them whistle and alert him. Arjun wakes up.

Arjun: Come in.

His friends enter the house.

Sameer: Shefali is in the car on the way to the airport.

Arjun gets up and leaves immediately.

Tulsi prepares the kaada for Arjun but does not find him.

Vincent is riding the bike while Arjun runs towards the airport.

Arjun stops in the distance and looks at Shefali, while Shefali gets teary-eyed looking at Arjun. Vincent reached the airport. Shefali faints. Vincent prevented her from falling and took her home. He calls the doctor to his place. The doctor gave her the injection and said, "Nothing to panic. It is just a normal fever. I gave her some medicines. She will recover."

Shirley: Can she go to Australia tomorrow?

Doctor: No. She needs a complete rest.

Vincent: What's wrong with you, Shirley? How will she travel in this condition? And what will she do even if she goes there?

Vincent and Shirley leave.

Arjun meets his friends.

Kartik: This time, you stopped her with the help of the onion, but what will you do after she recovers?

Sameer: I have an idea. Why don't we bring the proposal to her place?

The boys move to Vincent's house with Naina, Swati, Preeti, and Sunaina.

Shefali sees Arjun and his gang and gets elated.

They came near the door.

Sameer + Munna + Pandit + Kartik: Good morning Sir, madam.

Vincent: Good morning. What is the matter? Today, you have come with musical instruments, sweets, and fruits. Do you need any donations?

Sameer: Can we come in if you don't mind?

Vincent: What?

Sameer: We have come to talk to you about something important. Our Arjun is a very nice guy and loves your sister a lot. Even she loves him. So we have come here to ask for her hand in marriage.

Vincent gets wild. He kicked the plates and hit them. All the people in that area start beating up the boys.

Vincent went inside and screamed, "Shefali."
