While hugging, raghav and kalpi were unaware of gauri at the door. She was watching them with anger, I knew this girl would be trouble, seducing my son. I have to do something about it, she thought she walk away to make a call, leaving the two alone. "Your daughter will have to step up her game" she says
Neetu asks her what happened, and she told her that raghav was being seduced by a maid in house. This made neetu laugh "a maid, competing with my daughter. That's ridiculous" she says, gauri told her she will send a pic since she won't believe. She sends the picture and neetu check it out, she frown seeing the girl wrapped around raghav, " this is a problem, I won't let this tharki steal my daughter fianc" she says, she told gauri that she will think of a plan, gauri says she will try to separate them at any cost. She told neetu that she didn't kill priya for some tharki to steal raghav. "Tell kamla to be ready" she says before hanging up.
Meanwhile, raghav and kalpi finally came back to reality. Embarrassed kalpi let go of raghav, and quickly apologized, raghav tries to hide his blush. He told her she doesn't have to, and that he was at fault, but kalpi denies it and said she was the one who jump on him, raghav agrees to that, thinking about kalpi long slim legs that was not too long ago wrap tightly around him. Realizing his friend was starting to stir, he tried thinking of something cold that helped him a lot. Kalpi worried over his silence, asks if he was ok, and he said yes, he told her to forget what happened because it will be to awkward for them both to work with one another, he told her to keep it professional.
Both of them didn't want that, especially kalpi, she still didn't understand why, but she now knows that she deeply care for raghav, at first while hugging him, she figured it out, but it was soon gone like magic. So now she just can't figure out what it was. Raghav turn to walk away, but stops half way "do you still see me as a brother, kalpi?" he says surprising her, kalpi thought about it, she didn't really know how to answer the question. Do I still see raghav as a brother? I mean I still see this new environment as a village, when I walk in the streets I call the elders aunty, and the younger ones Bhai and didi. What about raghav? I know I care deeply for him, the feeling is so deep that i can mistake it for love. Is it love? Do I want to be with raghav like mam and baba?
This is all new to me, she thought. Raghav look at her and could see the confuse in her eyes, he sigh before telling her not to worry about it. He turn and walk away, leaving kalpi to her thought, while walking raghav didn't notice Aadita hiding, she hit her forehead before saying kalpi-didi, and you should have told baba that you like him. " your right Aadita, kalpi can be so slow at times, I'm sure with time she will finally see raghav as more than a brother" she says, this made her happy, they watch as kalpi in daze walk out the kitchen to go to her room. I know papa loves kalpi, I saw it in his eyes, but papa is dense, he won't make a move unless he has proof that kalpi-didi likes him. At this rate they will never get together, she thought.
The next day, Aadita was in the house bored. She didn't know what to do, everyone was supper busy and they didn't have time to play with her. Sighing, she she lays on the couch upside down. That was how kalpi saw her, she walk to Aadita and bends down to talk with her since she was turned upside down. "What is this Aadita?" she says
"I'm keeping myself entertain so I won't be bored" she says
Kalpi thought about it before saying "back in my village, we would resell with the boys, and play with the elephants. Those were fun days" she told Aadita that this wasn't fun, Aadita asks her what they should do then. This made kalpi smile with her eyes twinkling. She grab Aadita and went to her room, there she took a bottle out. "What is this kalpi-didi?" she asks
"This Aadita, will keep us entertain", Aadita didn't know what was in it, but as long as she has fun then it doesn't matter. Rachna, one of the maids came to kalpi room to give her the list of jobs she has to do, but stop when she saw kalpi with a bottle. She asks her what she was up to and kalpi told her she was going to have fun. I don't even want to be a part of her craziness, but I am curious, she thought
Kalpi with Aadita and Rachna walk to gauri room, luckily she was sleeping. They silently snuck into the bathroom, without making a sound. Kalpi search for her shampoo bottle before opening it. She pour whatever liquid that was inside the small bottle before shaking it well, and closing it. She told them to go, and they snuck out the room. Once they were out, Rachna asks her what she was doing and kalpi told her just wait until breakfast.
And so, kalpi played with Aadita for a while before leaving to do chores. Few hours later, everyone came down to eat breakfast, mr.singhania sat at the end of the table while raghav sat on his left. He asks raghav where was his mom, " I don't know" he says, just then gauri came down the stairs, she didn't know why the maids were holding their giggle, she told them to stop playing around and get back to work. She came down, and she sat down with no problem, ignoring the stare from the family. Kalpi was holding her laughter, raghav was taken back, and Mr Singhania mouth was a little open, before he close it. "What is this new drama now gauri" he says
Gauri didn't understand what he meant "what drama?" she says
Aadita points at her hair "dadi, looks like a clown" she says
"Aadita" raghav says stretching her name. She silently puts her hand down and says sorry.
Gauri touch her hair, but she didn't feel anything wrong with it. She grab one of her hair to look at it, only to see a green strand. Confuse, she walk to the mirror and look at herself. Her hair was all green, mix with red and blue. This did not sit well with her. Embarrassed she turn and asks them who did this? She scream calling all the maids, when they came, she told them she will not spare them if they don't tell who mess with her shampoo. Rachna finally realize, what it was that kalpi was up to this whole time. She laugh a little, making everyone turn to her, and gauri hearing her laugh pull her out. She accuse her of mixing hair dye in her shampoo, this made Rachna frown. "I didn't do it mam, I would never" she says
"Then who did?" she asks, this made her silent. Gauri realize she was hiding something, she told her if she doesn't tell her who did it, and then she will be fired. Rachna plead for her not to do it because she needs the job, but gauri didn't care. Kalpi coming in the living room told her she did it. "I should have known you would be behind this, you are nothing but a bad luck in my family" she says
She let go of Rachna and walk to kalpi, kalpi told her to forgive her, and that it was just a small joke. " a joke?" this is what you call a joke" she yells, making kalpi nod her head, gauri told her she humiliated her, and now she will leave this house for good. She grab kalpi hand and drag her to the door, as soon as she was about to open. Raghav stops her hand "what are you doing raghav" she says
"She's not going anywhere, mam" he says, kalpi looks at him, surprised, while gauri asks him why he was defending her, but raghav ignores her. Mr.singhania, told her to stop her drama because it is too early to hear her loud mouth. Gauri was upset, she let go of kalpi, before looking at her husband and son "you both have turned against me because of this girl, then fine" she says
She walk to the kitchen and took out a knife. The maids and servants plead with her to stop, but she didn't care, she came back with the knife, holding it on her wrist. She told them that she will end her life, since everyone wants to take kalpi side and make her look like the villain. Raghav tries to reason with his mom, but she wouldn't budge, kalpi told her she will leave, but mr.singhania told her to stop, he told her she was not going anywhere, and if his wife wants to committee suicide because of something so stupid then let her. Raghav told his dad not to think that way, but Mr. Singhania didn't care.
He told raghav to shut his mouth, before looking at gauri "what are you waiting for do it, so we can get back to our work" he says, gauri was hesitating while kalpi was worried. She didn't want gauri to end her life, she blame herself for what was happening. I have to stop this before someone is hurt, she thought looking at gauri
