Thanks a ton 😊❤️

URMILA- baba re... Today for the first time I've seen papa like this..

Said Urmila arranging their bags. Manvi folded the clothes and gave it to Urmila.

MANVI- ya.. till now we've only seen maa getting angry.. but today for a change it was papa ..

Manvi giggle while Urmila nods her head.

SIYA- don't say like that Manvi...

Siya interrupt them while both the girls looked sorry

SIYA- whatever happened.. let it be..

SHRUTI- ye sab meri wajah se hi hua he dii..

Said Shruti in embarassment. Siya smile and moves towards her.

SHRUTI- I should have not listened to Shatrughan's friends. We would have came back in time..

Shruti said in disbelief. Urmila and Manvi too moves towards her.

MANVI- come on Shruti.. you didn't do it intentionally. And ab wo bat hogayi he na.. itna mat socho..

URMILA- ya Shruti.. let it go.. it's not a very big deal..

They tried to make her calm. Siya smile at Shruti.

SIYA- yes Shruti.. let it go now.. just remember.. all three of you ...

She said to all her sisters while they listened to her.

SIYA- we are Rajrishi daughters. We never did any such thing for which our parents scolded us. And now we are Raghuvanshi bahus. So we've to continue being us...

URMILA- jab hamare pas aap he dii. Then why we have to worry about anything..

Siya smile at her and touch her face.

SIYA- I am there Urmi.. but here we are individual daughter-in-law.. we have individual responsibility.. we have to follow that. We don't have to disappoint anyone..

The girls nods at her in agreement. Siya's eyes falls on Kranti who was standing at door. She was about to call her but Kranti leaves from there.

Kranti goes in her room. She smile lightly thinking about how Siya explained others about their responsibility. She opens the drawer to take out something and while closing it, it got jerk and the photo frame which was kept on the drawer was about to fall when someone catches it. Kranti looks at him and Ram gets up smiling.

KRANTI- Ram... Thank god.. I thought it will get broken up..

Said Kranti looking at the frame. The picture was of the four Raghuvanshi brothers together.

RAM- aise kaise tut jata maa... Me ise kabhi nahi tutne dunga..

Said Ram smiling. He kept the photo at its place and looks at Kranti who was smiling at him.

KRANTI- sometimes you say those things which literally touches my heart..

She said caressing his face. Ram holds her hand.

RAM- you are angry with me maa??

KRANTI- how can I be angry with my Ram?

Said Kranti suddenly interrupting his Statement. Ram smile at her and waited for her to continue.

KRANTI- I was just worried for Shatrughan. That's it...

RAM- maa.. you trust me right?

Asked Ram for which Kranti nods her head in yes.

KRANTI- of course I do..

RAM- me papa ko batane wala tha maa.. but not like this... Khair.. whatever happened let it be.. papa is no more angry with Shatrughan. Today in office too they both behaved normally.

Kranti smile at him but at the second moment again looks tensed.

RAM- maa..??

Kranti looks at him.

KRANTI- Ram.. when will Shatrughan become responsible? Sab koi tumhare jaisa kyu nahi he Ram?

Asked Kranti smiling while Ram nods his head.

RAM- everyone is special in their own way maa.. no one needs to become Ram.. and secondly.. Shatrughan abhi thoda baccha he maa.. he has just joined our business. Suddenly his wedding has been fixed. He has occupied with so many responsibilities all of a sudden. We should give him time to gather everything right?

Ram tried to explain her while Kranti listened to him calmly.

KRANTI- tumhe to ye sab ki zarurat kabhi nahi padi ram.. you became mature yourself...

RAM- I told you na maa.. everyone are special in their own way.. hume bas Shatrughan ko support karna he. And this thing I've said to papa too...

Kranti looks at him in surprise. Ram smile at her nodding his head while Kranti too smile at him.

KRANTI- thank you beta...

RAM- come on maa... You don't have to worry when I'm here.. mere hote hue mere bhaiyo ko koi problem nahi hogi maa.. I promise...

Kranti smile at him. All her worries and tension were gone listening to Ram. She hugs Ram while Ram caresses his mother's back pacifying her. Their moments were witnessed by Sumitra who was standing at the entrance of room.

SUMITRA- thank god .. and thanks to you ram.. I believe it too ki jab tak tum ho tab tak koi problem nahi ayegi...

She said to herself. She again looks at Ram and Kranti and smile at them...

*****

Ram was searching for Siya when he found her at terrace. He moves towards her and stand beside her leaning towards the railing.

RAM- hey... Sona nahi he?

Asked Ram while siya smile looking at him. She held his arm and keep her head on his shoulder.

SIYA- it feels nice here...

Ram pecked her hair and both of them stood there.. after a while Ram spoke

RAM- what is bothering you?

Siya looks at him startled while he was smiling lightly.

RAM- I know there is something.. tell me..

Siya again got back to her position keeping her head on his shoulder and this time making the grip tight on his arm..

SIYA- is there any proper or particular age for marriage?

Ram scrunched his brows and looks confused.

RAM- meaning??

SIYA- Urmila had joined business a while back. Shruti had just completed her studies last year. She has not started her career also. Aise me un sab par shadi jaisi zimmedari dalna. Will they be able to handle it?

Asked Siya getting concerned. Ram took her hand in his and lightly rubs it.

RAM- there is not any defined age to get married Siya. And I don't think so that our siblings need to get themselves ready to get married...

Siya looks at him questioning while he continued looking at her.

RAM- I agree they all are kids by behavior. But trust me, when they'll get responsibility they will automatically become responsible. Hai na?

SIYA- but ram.. there is so much for them to learn.. take yesterday's example.. bat chotisi thi.. but badi ban gayi na..

Siya tried more to explain. Ram nods at her

RAM- ha siya.. but everyone has to do mistake so that from next time they'll not repeat it.

Said Ram while Siya goes in a thought. Ram gave her a smile

RAM- Bharat Manvi, Lakshman Urmila and Shatrughan Shruti.. these all are like a small plants of our nursery. We have to nurture them properly so that they become big trees...

Siya looks at Ram. He holds her hand and continued

RAM- for that, they've to bear certain things. Let them be.. we are always there to support them as a protectors..

Siya smile at him widely. She moves closer to him keeping her hand on his chest while he wraps his hands on her waist.

SIYA- if you would not be there then I don't know what would have happened to me.. you're my protector too...

Ram pulls her lightly and brushes his nose with hers.

RAM- same goes to you. You are my strength. Aap sath he, tabhi to I can handle everything..

Siya smile at him and keeps her head on his chest.

SIYA- I think you're right.. galati karenge tabhi to sikhenge.. our kids too will commit mistake then only they will learn from it..

RAM- exactly.. isliye.. no more concern about Urmila or shruti's age.. about Shatrughan's immaturity.. about lakshman's anger.. everyone will learn themselves.. let us just be with them..

Siya nods her head in agreement.

RAM- ab chale..?? It's... quite.... late...

Said Ram teasing giving a tight grip to Siya. She release herself from his grip..

SIYA- we've to leave early tomorrow to Delhi.. remember .??

Ram pout and crossed his arms. Siya pulls his cheek.

SIYA- go to sleep...

They both laughs at each other lightly and moves to their room..

*****

Phew... Finally everything sorted!!!!

Everyone were at temple praying to God and reciting the morning prayers..

SIYA- सब कें उर अभिलाषु अस कहहिं मनाइ महेसु।

आप अछत जुबराज पद रामहि देउ नरेसु॥

Siya read the lines from Ramayana. Everyone surrounded her listening to her melodious voice.

SIYA- everyone around prayed to lord Mahadev and then requested king Dashrath to crown Ram as their King...

Dashrath smile hearing this. He looks at Ram who was sitting beside him.

SIYA- जनमे एक संग सब भाई। भोजन सयन केलि लरिकाई॥

करनबेध उपबीत बिआहा। संग संग सब भए उछाहा॥

Siya read the lines further. The girls who were sitting behind Siya were also listening her.

SIYA- all the fours brothers did everything together from birth. They were born together, they did their studies together and they also married together. But now only one strange thing will happen that as an eldest son only Ram will be crowned leaving others with nothing...

Kranti's smile disappeared for a while. She looks at Bharat, Lakshman and Shatrughan. Dashrath patted on Ram's back while Ram smile at him. Kranti's eyes falls on them and she gave a light smile. Siya closed the Ramayana joining her hands while others followed it.

SUMITRA- didi... We've to leave in a while. Let us have breakfast..

Kranti nods in agreement. They all went towards the dinning.

SHATRUGHAN- papa..

Shatrughan stops Dashrath.

SHATRUGHAN- aap mujhse naraz to nahi he na?

Dashrath gave him a smile. While others looked at them hoping for best.

DASHRATH- how can I be angry with my kids?

Said Dashrath patting his shoulder. Shatrughan hugs his father while Ram looks at them smiling.

SIYA- maa.. these are the designs you asked for..

Said siya giving kranti some booklets for renovating the rooms.

KRANTI- are haa.. thank you beta...

She takes the booklet and gave it to Bharat..

KRANTI- listen you three.. all you have to choose your designs for your room.. shadi se pehle tum tino ke new rooms karwane he...

Kranti gave other booklets to Urmila and Manvi.

DASHRATH- yes.. you all discuss it together.. whatever things you want for your room..

Announced Dashrath while the girls became happy. Shatrughan and Shruti looks at one of the booklet to finalize their design. While Lakshman and Urmila argue over two designs. Manvi looks at Bharat who indicates her to choose herself.

SHRUTI- maa.. this one for us..

Shruti gave her design to Kranti while she asked Siya to mark it.

URMILA- I'm finalizing this one.. aap chup rahiye...

Urmila scolds to Lakshman while he pout and others laughs at him..

URMILA- this one maa...

KRANTI- are wahh... Mark this Siya..

Siya nods her head and finalized lakshman's room. Kranti looks at Bharat.

KRANTI- come on Bharat.. you also give your design..

BHARAT- what should I say maa? Whatever Manvi will decide it will be the final one...

Everyone looks at him in surprise. Manvi smile looking at Bharat.

SUMITRA- Manvi... Ye to sachme badal gaya he...

Said Sumitra praising while Manvi looks at Siya who gave her a satisfied smile.

SUMITRA- chalo it's nice.. atleast we are witnessing a different Bharat now..

Bharat smile at this. Everyone had their breakfast and got ready to catch a flight for Delhi..

*****

Everyone reached Delhi till evening. The Rajrishis welcome them.

SIYA- maa... Papa...

Siya runs towards Janak and Sunaina and hugs them. She moves towards Kushal and Chandra to meet them. Ram took his in-laws blessings followed by his brothers.

CHANDRA- how was your trip?

Asked Chandra to the girls while all of them smile getting happy.

SHRUTI- very nice maa.. we had a great fun..

KUSHAL- ayiye na.. bethiye...

They requested the Raghuvanshis to sit.

SIYA- maa.. may I just have a look at my room?

Asked Siya getting embarrassed. Sunaina smile and nods her head. Siya indicates her sisters to follow and all four of them runs towards their room.

SUMITRA- siya must be missing her room..

Said Sumitra looking at them going while everyone nods at her.

Siya opens the door of her room. She gets inside and looks around. She opens the window and touches the hanging plants near the panel. Next she touched her cupboard and wardrobe. Her sisters smile looking at her like this. She moves towards her bed and falls on it closing her eyes. Urmila looks at the other two and indicates them. All three goes towards the bed and sleep besides siya.

SIYA- it is feeling great...

Said siya still closing her eyes.

MANVI- apne itna miss kiya ye sab dii?

Asked Manvi looking at siya. She opens her eyes slowly and nods looking at Manvi.

SIYA- bohot jyada... The place where we have grown up, have different type of attachment in our heart..

URMILA- not only this ghar... But maa papa.. chachi chacha.. everyone...

Said Urmila sleeping besides siya placing her arm on her.

Not very serious conflicts. But when it is a modern time story of the show then a little family drama is needed right..😉

Promise to not make it too sad and dramatic..

All the couples were gathered at terrace sitting and talking amongst each other. Lakshman was resting keeping his head on Siya's lap while Ram was sitting beside them. Shatrughan was sitting to the other side of Siya resting his back to Manvi. Urmila was sitting beside Manvi. Bharat was resting at the other side of Ram while Shruti occupied seat beside him resting herself on Urmila.

URMILA- kuch bhi ha Shatru..... It's superstitious..

Said Urmila denying to Shatrughan's words. While everyone agreed to her..

SHATRUGHAN- are bhabs sach me... I've read this.. it's called ring theory..

SHRUTI- have you performed it on anyone.?

Asked Shruti sounding to believe in him when Bharat interrupt.

BHARAT- oh come on Shruti.. aisa kabhi hota he kya? And this fellow... He says kuch bhi..

Said Bharat throwing a water bottle at Shatrughan and he catches it.

SHATRUGHAN- are..?? It is a part of empiricism..

LAKSHMAN- acha? Explain your so called theory...

Commanded Lakshman while Shatrughan sits straight to explain.

SHATRUGHAN- a ring is tied to a chain and then it is rotated on the palm of the ladies. By one jerk if the ring rotates clockwise then you'll have a boy. And if it goes anticlockwise then it's a girl...

Shatrughan tried to explain his words. They were having a random talks about something which Shatrughan was telling them..

RAM- Shatrughan... Kaha se padha ye sab? It is just for time pass... Nothing is realistic in this..

MANVI- correct... in normal hindi it is called as "totka"... Don't call it by any high-figh word to cover up..

Everyone laughs at this while Shatrughan pouts.

SIYA- are why you people are discouraging him.. there must be something theoretical in this na..

Said Siya supporting Shatrughan while he nods in agreement.

LAKSHMAN- come on bhabhi.. don't believe him. He have a habit to read these things and do experiments on everyone..

Siya ruffle lakshman's hair telling him to not tease his yonger brother.

SHRUTI- no no.. I believe you cookie..

Said Shruti looking at Shatrughan while he blows a kiss to her.

BHARAT- acha? Then let's experiment.. we have four ladies here. Shatrughan come on start with bhabhi...

Shatrughan gulped hearing this while Siya looks startled..

SIYA- nahi nahi.. I don't want to do it..

Denied Siya while everyone laughs at this.

LAKSHMAN- kyu bhabhi? Let's see na.. just for fun..

SHATRUGHAN- dekha sabka interest agaya na...

Said Shatrughan giving a winning smile while Lakshman hits his head lightly.

MANVI- yes dii.. let's see na.. pata to chale, hume masi bulane "wala hoga" ya "wali hogi"...

Said Manvi giving a wink and doing a high five with urmila.. Ram smile nodding his head.

RAM- this is not happening anytime soon.. then why we are doing this experiment..??

Said Ram in an embarrassment while everyone denied him.

BHARAT- come on bhaiya. It's just a game.

SHATRUGHAN- bhaiya it's not a game..

Interrupt Shatrughan while Bharat hits his own head in disbelief.

LAKSHMAN- ya whatever.. bhabhi please...

Said lakshman getting up. He made space so that Siya will face Shatrughan.

SHATRUGHAN- give me a ring and chain anyone..

Shruti removes her chain and pass it to Shatrughan while Siya gives him her ring.

SIYA- this is so stupidity...

Said Siya in a pout while everyone became excited. Shatrughan takes Siya's palm and was about to start when Urmila interrupt..

URMILA- one minute... I've a doubt in this..

Everyone looks at her questioning while she continued..

URMILA- see talking biologically, ladka hoga ya ladki,.. ye to... it is dependent on man na.. then why this totka is......

Interrupt Shatrughan in between..

SHATRUGHAN- don't call it totka...

URMILA- ya ya whatever it is called.... Something theory.... Ha to... This experiment should be done on man na.. not a woman...

Shatrughan looks here and there while everyone agreed to her.

MANVI- absolutely valid point.. Shatrughan.. you've to say anything regarding this?

SHATRUGHAN- meri pyari bhabhiyo... I've not done doctorate in this. Its just an experiment...

Said Shatrughan joining his hands while everyone laughs at him.

LAKSHMAN- dekha... A big big disclaimer.. it's just an experiment.. do not believe in this...

Said lakshman loudly while Shatrughan pout at him.

RAM- acha thk he.. just for fun.. nothing else ...

Said Ram in a warning while everyone nods their head agreeing. Shatrughan takes Siya's hand and holds the chain with a ring above her palm. He gave a light jerk and the ring turns clockwise..

SHATRUGHAN- it will be a boy....

Everyone claps their hand celebrating while Ram and Siya looks at them in surprise..

SIYA- are?? You people are celebrating like it just happened...

RAM- exactly.. don't take these things seriously I've told na..

Ram and Siya tried to make everyone stop while they were still laughing and giggling.

BHARAT- theek he na bhaiya.. just for a fun.. iska theory prove to badme hi hoga na...

Said Bharat giving a wink to Siya while she looks shocked.

Said Ram keeping his hand at his back. Siya blush at him looking down.

SIYA- kya aap bhi... What if it will be a girl?

Asked Siya while Ram smile more widely at her

RAM- ahh I wish it should be.. just like you..

Ram gave her a peck on her cheek while she lightly hits him. She switched off the lights of the terrace and they move towards their room...

Next morning, everyone were settled in living area while Guru Vashisht was looking for some dates for the next three weddings..

DASHRATH- Guruji.. it will be very fine if you tell us the muhurat for the ceremony to assign managing directorship to Ram..

Vashisht smile and nods his head in agreement. Ram thinks something and interrupt..

RAM- papa... Ongoing projects are about to get finished.. let it get complete first then we can proceed towards these things..

Ram suggested while Dashrath too thinks about it. He looks at Kranti who gave him a nod in agreement.

DASHRATH- ok.. as you wish..

Ram smile at him. Guru Vashisht again look at his papers which he was carrying. After some time he spoke..

VASHISHT- sagai aur shadi ka lagbhag ek hi muhurat dikh raha he...

Said Vashisht while everyone looks at each other.

JANAK- kab ka he Guruji?

Sunaina brought tissues for everyone and they wipes themselves cleaning the cake from their faces.

Sar pe chadha hai yeh kaisa asar

Daude raftaar mein dil ki sab dhadkanein

Dhun koi chal rahi hai, kaano mein dheeme se

Roshan hai zyada yeh subah

He takes the random pictures of everyone. And some selfies too with the children's squad.

Oo.. halchal jo ho rahi hai seene mein hone de

Khushiyon ki mili hai wajah..

Everyone gathers near each other for the family selfie. Lakshman stands on the table so that everyone comes in frame. Urmila holds his leg when he was about to fall getting unbalance.
