Anika waited with tears in her eyes as the scene unfolded in front of her eyes... her Shivay got married... he put Mangalsutra and Sindoor to his new bride and all she could do was watch making her feel numb. As she watched Bua handing over a folder of pictures she showed to her a while ago which incriminates Shivay's parents and Tej Uncle and Janvi aunt responsible for the KM fire, it put a seed of doubt in her mind IF Bua was telling the truth.
Unable to bear the betrayal of Shivay she walked out with determination wiping her tears demanding an explanation...
"Yeh kya horaha hain Shivay??" Anika demanded in a booming voice sending everyone in various degrees of shocks...
Shivay was shocked to see Anika as he takes a look at her tear strained face making him looked back at Roop Bua who has her smug face on.
He watched in shock as Bua walked up to Anika telling her "Aab aya yakin aayaa?? bada ghamand tha na tuzhe apane Shivay ke pyaar par... main kaha tha na tuzhase wo dusari shaadi kar raha hain apane family ki izzat bachane keliye..."
Pushing aside Bua Shivay grabbed Anika by her arms and questioned her in panic, "Anika tum... tum yaha kya kar rahi ho?? Buaji ne tumase kya kaha??? trust me... uhone jo kuch bhi kaha woo sab zhoot hain..."
"Sab zhoot hain Shivay?" Anika questioned in a almost inaudible voice, but Shivay firming his hold on her arms re-confirmed, "Sab zhoot hain... main tumhe sach bataunga... maine tumhe kaha tha ki main tumhe sab kuch bataunga..."
Shivay watched a little numb as Anika slowly removed his hold and stepping back questioned him, "Tohh bataiye... Buaa ji ne kaha mere papa Harsha Vardhan Trivedi Kalyani Mill main foreman te... Kya yeh zhoot hain??? Kya yeh zhoot hain ke mere papa ki maut heart attack se nahi balki unhone khudakhushi kiye the????"
Shivay's brained stopped functioning all he could do was stared back and Anika in shock.
Anika watched as she saw the truth in Shivay's eyes, "Batayee Shivay kya yeh zhoot hain ki mere papa par KM main aag lagane ka aur Mr. Kappor ke murder ka ilzam lagaya gaya tha? Kya yeh zhoot hain ki Buaa ji ke pass sabot hain ki Oberio's ne Mr. Kapoor ka murder kiya tha??"
stepping close to Shivay and grabbing him desperately Anika demanded one last time, "Bolyeee Shivay, keh dijiyee ki aapne abhi abhi yaha dusari shaadi kiye hain taqi bua aapko wo saree suboot de de jisase ki apake gharwale begunha sabhit hosake..."
As Anika keept questioning, Shivay's heart broke into pieces, he completely understood Bua has twisted the facts and manipulated Anika.
Anika broke down by the time she finished and almost lost her balance making Shivay grab to support her as he watched her sobbing, gathering all this courage he tries to reason with her, "Anikaa... meri bat suno..." cupping her face he tried to explain, "Tumane abhi jo kuch bhi kaha woo sach hain lekin..."
Unable to listen anything beyond what Shivay was saying Anika showed him her hand signaling him to stopped...
Pinky, Om Ru tried stepped closer to Anika and tried to explain but Anika was in no mood to listen anything from anyone and just walked ran out as Shivay walked with rage towards Bua who with her trade mark smile tells him, "Tuch tuch tuch... bhatijee... kya hua??? (raising her voice) main tumhe khatha na...maine tu dono ko alag kardungi... main kardiya... jaooo jaooo samazhhaooo usee..." Bua gives a victories laugh which echoed in the entire room.
Shivay who never in his life raise a hand to hit a woman came very close to physically harm his Bua but was thankfully hold back by OmRu.
But nothing could hold Pinky back today as she walked to the laughing Roop and gave her tight slap across her face leaving her hand print of the on her face.
"Parjaejeee... yeh aapne accha nahi kiya..." Roop says in a ranged menacing voice but Pinky who was beyond thinking gave one more slap and warned Roop bua, "Tuzhe kya laga... mere beti ki zinagi barbad karegi tu aur main dekhati rahungi? Tu bhi ek maa hone ka dava karati hain naa? toh acchi tarah se jann le aja jarurat pati toh tera khoon karnese bh piche nahi hatungi main... toh tum apani hadd main reh..."
Shivay watched as his mother took care of Roop bua and realizing he needs to find Anika before she misunderstood everything and ran out to find her.
