PART 18
"Shyam Ji, i think you're not feeling well, let me take you to the room you need to rest" said Anjali
"Jai Prakash, bring a garam chai for Shyam Ji" ordered Anjali
Nani was looking from afar and enjoying the sight. "Sukriya thakur Ji".
Nani was too excited and she calls anj immediately, "anj bitiya, I'm having super fun at home"
"Nani Ji, what happened? You sound very happy" asks anj
"Ha ha ha, the evil will one day be destroyed and good will be triumphant" said Nani "will talk to you in detail when i meet you bitiya" saying this Nani hung up.
"Damaad Ji, what happened?" Asked Nani
"I have no idea Nani, looks like he has got scared over something" replied Anjali
"Do you want me to stay Anjali bitiya?" Asked Nani
"Err... na... no Nani, its okay he should be fine now" replied Anjali
"Theek hain bitiya, i will go to the temple and come" said Nani
"Okay Nani, om prakash will drop you" replied Anjali
Nani left the room with a wide smile on her face which was not at all noticed either by Shyam or Anjali
***********
"Shyam Ji, what happened? Can you kindly tell me in detail?" Asked Anjali annoyed
"Rani saahiba, saleh sahab is alive, i saw him at the town" replied Shyam
"Oh please Shyam Ji, chote is dead, we burnt his corpse, how on earth could he be alive, stop talking nonsense" replied anjali in anger
Shyam was feeling freaked, confused and moreover convinced at the fact that they burnt the final remains of Arnav.
"I'm sorry Rani sahiba, just been to stressed out lately" replied Shyam.
Anjali was too annoyed to even listen to Shyam, but he came from behind and hugged Anjali tight.
**************
"Namaste Nani Ji" greeted Anj
"Namaste Anj bitiya, why have you suddenly called for me?" Asked Nani.
Anj took Nani by her arms and made her sit near the mandir.
"First you tell me Nani Ji, why were you so happy when you called me?" Queried Anj
"Nahin bitiya, its just that..."
Vansh walks in just when Nani was about to tell Anj the incident that took place at Raizada mansion
"Who is this bitiya?" Asked Nani
"Oh, he is my friend Nani Ji, he is here to help us unite kushi and Arnav" replied Anj
"Oh, for a moment i thought he was your husband, suits you" replied Nani
Anj and vansh look at each other, vansh smirks the moment Nani confesses and Anj looks away feeling uncomfortable.
"Erm Nani Ji, you were saying..." Anj tried to start off with the conversation.
"Ji bitiya, actually damaad Ji had seen chote and he came home freaked out" said Nani
Anj and vansh looked at each other...
"But why Nani Ji, why was he freaked out?" Asked Anj
"Uff bitiya it's common sense na, a person feels guilty, scared only when they do wrong" replied Nani
"What do you mean Nani Ji" asked Anj
"HE AND ANJALI WERE THE REASON WHY MY KIDS DIED! THEY KILLED CHOTE AND KUSHI BITIYA" said Nani
Anj and vansh looked at each other shocked.
"Bitiya, it was true that my children were gonna commit suicide, but the moment i got to know i rushed to the cliff to save them" said Nani
Anj and vansh were now even more confused
"Phir Kya hua Nani Ji" asked vansh
"Phir...
<<flashback>>
Nani rushes towards Arnav and kushi trying to stop them from making the biggest mistake of their lives, but she was taken aback the moment she saw something else at the cliff...It was Shyam... he was walking towards Arnav and kushi as they stood hand in hand near the cliff...Nani looked on helplessly, she wanted to run towards them to stop Shyam, but her feet were too heavy and Nani could not move any further...Shyam moved closer to Arnav and kushi, innocent Arnav and kushi were clueless, they had no idea what was in store...As they were about to jump, before the blink of an eye...
<<end of flashback>>
"Nahinnn" Nani shouted out
"I wish i was not present at that time to witness all this" Nani broke down.
Anj consoled Nani
"Please Nani Ji, don't cry" pleaded Anj
"My children were pushed off the cliff by that mean beast and i could not do anything about it bitiya, why did thakur Ji do such a thing to me, why..." Nani continued crying...
Anj and vansh were now extremely shocked and annoyed.
"Nani Ji please don't cry, we will punish those murderers for sure" spoke Anj
"Vansh i guess Nani Ji should go home now, we should not keep her here" said Anj
Anj and vansh walked Nani upto the car and asked her driver to take her home...
*****************
The phones at Raizada mansion start ringing.
"Namaste, can i talk to Shyam Manohar Jha" asks the voice on the phone
"Ji, aap kaun?" Asks jai prakash
The caller hung up...
The phone starts ringing once again... once again Jai prakash answers the call and the caller hangs up.
"Jai prakash, whose calling?" Asks Shyam
"Ji sahab, he asked for you, but when i asked who was calling, he cut the call sir Ji" replied Jai prakash.
Shyam started freaking out once again, someone taps Shyam on his shoulder.Shyam shouts out...
"Shyam Ji, what's wrong? Why are you looking so freaked out?" Asks Anjali
"Erm, its actually, i mean Erm, its, kuch Nahin Rani sahiba" replied Shyam.
****************
Vansh and Anj were on their way home... there was silence along the drive, suddenly anj spoke "you know vansh, kru Is so innocent she does not even know that she was murdered in her past life"
"Hmmm" vansh sighed
"I'm so shocked vansh, it was murder, my gosh vansh, we've gotta get that guy locked up, he needs to pay for his deeds" spoke Anj in anger
"Relax Anj, its not easy, what are we gonna tell the cops? What proof do we have? We gotta be prepared with all" replied vansh
"Ya i know. Hmmm... thanks vansh for helping me..." replied Anj"Anything for you Anj, anything for you" replied vansh...
