Said Bharat caressing lakshman's head while he nods in agreement.
LAKSHMAN- you all also.. take your care. Papa choti maa.. sabka khyal rakhna..
Shatrughan holds lakshman's hand.
SHATRUGHAN- don't worry. Till you return, we will take care of Urmila bhabhi. Unki aankho me ab aasu nahi aane denge..
Lakshman smile at Shatrughan's promise. Sunaina feels sad and looks down saying nothing. Bharat and Shatrughan moves towards Siya who was smiling at them. She hands them a storage box.
SIYA- halwa hai.. kha lena..
Shatrughan accepts it from her and Siya caresses their face.
SIYA- ab bilkul rona nahi. Fulfill all your duties. And stay happy. Yad rakhna, tumhare bhaiya bhabhi hamesha tum logo ke sath hai..
Bharat takes Siya's hand in his and lightly pecks on her palms while Shatrughan side hugs her. They moves towards Ram who watches them coming towards him. Bharat and Shatrughan looks at each other and then at Ram. At the other moment they bend to take his blessings making everyone surprised.

BHARAT- but.. only as your servant. That post, that cabin, that responsibility will always belong to you.
Ram gets emotional hearing him while everyone became surprised looking at his love for Ram.
BHARAT- I am just serving for you bhaiya...
Ram smile and patted his shoulder proudly. Siya wipes her tears looking at their love.
SHATRUGHAN- bhaiya..
Ram motioned his eyes to look at Shatrughan.

Ram looks at him in confusion. Shatrughan smile and takes Ram's hand in his

*****
At Raghuvanshi palace, everyone were waiting for Ram and Siya's return. Urmila was moving from one side to the other side, continuously looking at the door and checking for Lakshman. She was getting restless and Shruti observed her.
SHRUTI- dii.. why are you getting restless..? Wo log ate hi honge.. aap shant hojayiye..
Said Shruti with a smile while urmila lightly nods at her. She looks at Dashrath and Sumitra who were sitting on couch getting tensed. Her eyes falls on Manvi who was standing near the temple, praying to God. Next she looks at upstairs where Kranti is standing watching them.
KRANTI- Bharat aur Shatrughan, Ram ko wapis lane gaye hai.. Ram apne bhaiyo ki bat nahi talega. He must be coming with them..
Said Kranti in a whisper scrunching her eyebrows while urmila observed her. Shruti observed her sight and didn't said anything. Suddenly they heard the car's noise which indicates their return.
URMILA- lagta hai aagaye..
Urmila runs towards the door while Dashrath and Sumitra gets up from their place. Manvi too moves at the centre while Kranti played with her hands, getting tensed. Urmila looks at Bharat, Shatrughan and Vashisht and then outside the door to check for others. She was having a light smile and was hoping to see Lakshman. When she didn't found anyone at the door she looks at her side to face Bharat who was looking at her. He lightly shook his head in no indicating that they have not returned. Urmila gets numb witnessing the truth while everyone too became shock. Kranti sighed as the tension from her mind got released.
KRANTI- Ram ne.. Bharat ko mana kar diya..?? Matlab wo sachme... Ghar se.. kahi wo naraz hokar to.. nahi gaya..??
Kranti talked with herself thinking about Ram. Bharat bows down and enters the house while Manvi watches him. Shruti runs towards Urmila to hold her as she was getting tears. Bharat falls in between on his knees, crying his heart out while Kranti gets surprised looking at his reaction. Kranti was about to move downstairs but stops in between as she knows that no one will entertain her. Manvi was about to go towards Bharat to calm him but Guru Vashisht stopped her showing hand. He himself goes near Bharat and keeps his hand on his shoulder.
BHARAT- Guruji...
Bharat looks at him and gets up from his place.
BHARAT- why all this is happening Guruji..?
Bharat questioned him while Shatrughan looks disappointed. Guru Vashisht sighs and continued.
VASHISHT- bas Bharat.. tumne Ram aur Siya se kya wada kiya hai yad hai na.?
Asked Vashisht while Bharat wipes his tears. He nods his head lightly.
VASHISHT- to bas. Ab tumhe nahi rona hai Bharat. Apne bhaiya ko diya hua wada pura karna hai tumhe.
Dashrath sighed in disappointment hearing from them that Ram has denied to return. His shoulder dropped and he leaves from there while Kranti watches him leaving from there.
BHARAT- meri kismat kitni kharab hai Guruji.. me apne papa ko diya hua promise bhi pura nahi kar paya.. unke bete ko nahi wapis la paya..
Said Bharat in a disappointment while Manvi bows down feeling bad for him. Shruti tightens her grip on urmila's shoulder to console her.
VASHISHT- khudko dosh mat do Bharat. Isme tumhari koi galati nahi hai.
Kranti lightly nods her head in agreement when Guru Vashisht was trying to console Bharat. He wipes his tears and listened to Guruji.
VASHISHT- ab tumhe himmat se kam lena hai. Pure pariwar ki zimmedari ab tumpar hai..
Bharat looks at him while Vashisht nods his head. Bharat's eyes falls on urmila who was staring him with tears. He moves towards her and joins his hands in front of her making her shocked.
URMILA- ye.. ye aap.. kya kar rahe.. hai bhaiya..?
Urmila holds Bharat's hand asking him to not do this.
BHARAT- I'm sorry Urmila. I could not keep my promise.
Urmila looks disappointed hearing Bharat. She bows down and wipes her tears.
BHARAT- tumhe us chiz ki saza mil rahi hai jo tumne ki hi nahi.
Kranti feels bad about Lakshman and Urmila. She too bows down feeling apologetic.
BHARAT- Ho sake to hum sabko maaf kar dena..
Urmila motioned her eyes to look at Bharat. She shook her denying his words.
URMILA- you don't have to do all this bhaiya. Jaise dii aur jiju apni marzi se ghar chodkar gaye hai. Waise hi, mene aur laksh ne apni marzi se alag rehne ka decision liya hai..
Bharat gets wondered hearing from her while everyone felt proud of them.
URMILA- I've promised laksh before our marriage. That I will not come in between him and his duties for his bhaiya.
Kranti gets surprised hearing the fact from her while Bharat stands still looking at her.
URMILA- me bas apna diya hua promise pura kar rahi hu. In this, you don't have to apologise to me, for anything..
Bharat smile at her and caresses her head lovingly while she smile at him. Sumitra wipes her tears and moves towards them.
SUMITRA- dekha Bharat..? All are fulfilling their promises. You too have to fulfill your promise which you've given to Ram.
Bharat turns to face sumitra. She smile at him and he hugs her tightly. Kranti feels to go near her son but was not having guts to face him.
BHARAT- sab jaldi theek hojayega na choti maa..?
Questioned Bharat in a whisper, still holding Sumitra while she nods in agreement.
SUMITRA- ofcourse my dear.
She released him from the hug.
SUMITRA- sab jald hi theek hone wala hai. Hume bas himmat nahi harni hai. We all have to make our family together, again..
Said Sumitra looking at everyone while they smile and nods at her in agreement. Kranti bows down as she was not completely agreed with sumitra. Guru Vashisht speak in between.
VASHISHT- kal ghar me puja hogi. Jiske bad, Bharat MD ban jayega..
Kranti smile hearing Guruji. While others only nods their head.
SUMITRA- Manvi.. Urmila.. Shruti.. do the preparations for puja.
The girls nods at her, wiping their tears. Sumitra looks at Guruji.
SUMITRA- guruji.. I don't think, we should invite any one for puja..
Kranti scrunched her eyebrows hearing Sumitra.
SUMITRA- Ram aur Siya ke ghar chodne ki bat ab tak media me nahi ayi hai. But, it will be very difficult for us to keep it hiden for long..
Guru Vashisht nods his head in agreement. Kranti looks disappointed but then erased her thoughts. She gets happy as Bharat is going to become MD soon. She looks at her children downstairs who were wiping each other's tears.

Ram was flipping through the photos of the wedding album of his brothers. He was having a smile when he was looking at the picture of Kranti and the four siblings. His eyes falls on lakshman and urmila's photo where he was teasing her and she was hitting him. He laughs lightly looking at them. Suddenly he felt someone's hand on his shoulder and he turns to look at Siya. He smile at her and she settled beside him.
RAM- shadi ki album..
Siya nods her head while Ram keeps the album on the table in front and turns to look at Siya.
RAM- long day right..
Ram sighed heavily while Siya smile at him.
SIYA- indeed..
Ram smile lightly and thinks about Bharat.
RAM- I was literally scared to look at Bharat like this Siya..
Siya looks at him as the tension about his brothers was reflecting from his expressions.
RAM- mujhe laga, I will not be able to handle him..
Said Ram looking at the album where Bharat and Manvi's picture was there. Siya looks at his direction and smile looking at the picture.
RAM- but aap ne sab sambhal liya..
Said Ram looking at Siya and she too turned to face him. He takes her hand in his and gripped it tightly.
RAM- thank you Siya. For handling everything so well.
Siya blinks her eyes lightly while Ram continued.
RAM- Bharat Lakshman Shatrughan.. aap sabko kitna ache se janti hai. And you handle them appropriately.
Siya giggles at his words.
SIYA- shadi ke ek sal bad, to sabko jaan hi lungi na..
Ram smile widely for the first time after so many days. He pecks her hand which he was holding while Siya smile at him. Suddenly something strikes his mind.
RAM- by the way.. do din bad kya hai, you remember..?
Questioned Ram while Siya gave a look at him.
SIYA- how can I forget..? We are completing our one year of togetherness..
Ram and Siya smile staring at each other as it was their first wedding anniversary after two days. Ram's smile lessened for a moment.
RAM- I am sorry Siya..
Siya looks at him in confusion.
RAM- aap ne socha nahi hoga na, that we will be celebrating our first anniversary like this..? Away from our family.?
Ram looks apologetic while Siya rolls her eyes.
SIYA- Ram.. you do one thing.. aap na mujhe anniversary pe, ek pen and diary gift kijiye..
Ram looks at her in confusion at her sudden demand.
RAM- why..?
SIYA- the number of times you say sorry and thank you, I will note it down na..
Said Siya in a taunt while Ram giggles at her words.
RAM- but seriously speaking, what gift you want from me.?
Asked Ram playing with her fingers while she shook her head.
SIYA- come on Ram.. aap mere saath hai, mujhe aur kya chahiye hoga.?
Ram looks at her lovingly. She takes her hand back from his hold and moves towards the bed to arrange it while Ram continuously stared her. He gets up and moves towards her and embrace her from back.
SIYA- areh..?
Siya looks at him in wonder while he lightly pecks her neck.
RAM- thank you for always understanding me..
Siya rolls her eyes and continued folding the bedsheet.
SIYA- again thanks giving session..
Ram tightens the grip on her waist and keeps his chin on her shoulder. Siya thinks something and decided to talk with Ram.
SIYA- Ram.. wo.. ek bat kehni thi .
Said Siya while Ram turns her around to face him. He rests his hands on her waist and wait for her to continue.
SIYA- agar... Aapko theek lag raha hoga.. to... Kya.. I mean.. can.. we...
Siya stammered to say while Ram looks in confusion.
RAM- bat kya hai siya.?
Asked Ram while Siya sighed releasing her tension. She smile at him and continued.
SIYA- kya hum baby ke bare me sochna thoda postpone kar sakte hai..?
Questioned Siya looking at his eyes while he didn't react anything. She keeps her hand on his chest near his heart.
SIYA- inn dino hamare sath jo bhi hua hai Ram, but still I believe that our family is going to get together soon..
Ram smile at her words. She keeps her head on his chest.
SIYA- to jab tak, everything doesn't get settled down, kya hum.. hamare plans postpone kar de..?
Ram tightens the grip on her and closed his eyes while Siya waited for him to speak.
RAM- as you say..
Siya motioned her face to look at him while he smile at her.
RAM- I don't have any problem Siya. Aap jaisa chahti hai, we will do the same..
Siya smile widely at him. She moves near him and pecks his cheek while he smirk at her.
RAM- acha..?? So this is your way to thank me?
Siya nods her head in agreement while Ram smirks at her more.
RAM- then let me tell you my way..
Ram whispered at her and picks her up in his arms.
SIYA- ram..?? Leave me..
RAM- kabhi nahi...
Siya looks at him in surprise while Ram giggles at her.
RAM- we have postponed our plans for baby. That doesn't mean that I will not continue with our romance..
Siya's jaw fall hearing him. She lightly hits his chest while he was still carrying her.
SIYA- Urmila sahi kehti hai..
Ram looks in confusion.
SIYA- she says.. that jiju kitne romantic hai ye to bas dii ko hi pata hoga.. and yes, I can see that..
Said Siya with a giggle while Ram pulls her more towards him still carrying her in his arms.
RAM- wo to me hu hi...
Ram winks at her and takes her towards the bed. He makes her to sleep and rests himself beside her. He takes her hand and pecks her palm while she smiles looking at his love. He moves towards her while she hides herself in his neck hugging him tightly. Ram wraps his arms around her and closed his eyes with a smile...
