Prologue Continued:Scene 5
Garima- "Jiji, hamare toh bhag hi phoote hain, dono behai-theyai betiyaan ghar behth gayi, jayan nani banne ka sukh nazzeb hone chala tha, wahan ee sab, ee sab ka ho gaya jiji." " Sister, look what out fate has come to, both married daughters are back home, where a good news of becoming a grandmother was to be welcomed, what has happened Jiji!" Garima continues crying, while Madhumati stews in anger.
Buaji- "Garima, ee sab uss shyam ka kiya dhara hai. Humari doono phool se baachiyon ke mujhe se muskurahat cheen li, nandkishore!" " Garima, this all is that shyam's fault. He has ruined both their lives, my darling daughters nandkishore."
Garima-" Jiji yeh mohalle wale kaisi kaisi baatein keh rahe hai, khushi betiyaan ne sun li toh-" "Jiji, the neighbourer's all talking all wild gossip, if khushi comes to know about it-"
Buaji-"Garima, hum bhi eh baat le kar hi chinta main doobe hue hain, humri sanka debi ne sun liya ki payaliya ke baare main kaisi kaisi baatein ho rai hai to bas, kood padi hai maidan maa; aapni jiji ke khatir, hai re nandkishore, ee ka kiya." "Garima, I have also been worried for the same cause, if our sanka devi (Debi) comes to hear what they are saying about payal(ia), she will jump in her siaters defense, hai re nandkishore, what has happened."
behind the curtain Khushi had come to a conclusion.
scene 6
K- "Di, bas yeh baat hamri sun li-" " Di, just this once listen to me-"
Anjali- "Hume Di mat kaho Khushi, hum bas yahan isliye aaye hain kyunki aapne kaha payal ji maa banne wali hain" "Don't you dare call me Di, I have come here just because you told me payal is to be a mother soon."
K- "D- Anjali ji, humari kismat ka grahan jiji ki zindagi per mat lagne dijiye. Hum toh hain bhi nai Gupta parivaar ke, we log bahut aache hain, humari wajah se aaj mohalle main wo log muh bhi nai dhikha sakte. Bas yeh ek winati maan lijiye, jiji ko Shantivan wapas aane dijiye, hum aapko vishwaas dilate hain ki hum Arnav ji ki zindagi se humesha huesha chale jayenge." "D- Anjali ji , please don't let the darkness of my fate shadow jiji's marriage, I am not even a true part of the Gupta family, please don't judge punish them for my fate. They are good people and today because of me they cannot even show their faces in society. please listen to my only request and accept payal jiji back to Shantivan, I promise you that I will for always leave Arnav ji's life and go away."
A light of understanding came into Anjali's eyes, she was hesitant to forge such a deal, but time, bitterness and misplaced love led her astray.
Scene 7
Khushi had been ignoring Arnav's phone for over a week, but now she had to get go through with her promise with Di, her heart ached just at the thought of leaving him, but must it was.
K-"Arnav ji, hum-" "Arnav ji, I-"
A- "Khushi! where the hell have you been, mera phone kyun nai utha rai thi why have you been ignoring my calls. Have you any Idea main kis haal main hun, dammit!"
K- "Arnav ji, bas woh ghar per halat hi kuch-" "Arnav ji, the circumstances at home were such that-"
A- "Khushi, kaisi ho tum?" "Khushi, how are you?" The wealth of emotion in his voice moved her, almost, almost broke her resolution, Payal walked past the door of the room and Khushi with held all pain and said:
K- "Arnav ji, aap mil sakte hai, aaj..." "Arnav ji, can you meet me today..."
A- "Haan, khushi. Per hua kya hai? tum theek ho na? say something, Dammit!" " yes, Khushi, but what happened? are you alright? say something, dammit!"
Scene 8
A-" What do you mean, tum wapas nai aana chati? you don't want to come back ? are you...are out of your MIND!!"
K- "Arnav ji-"
A- "Don't you dare Arnav ji me!, What the hell is going Khushi?"
K- (with a little more strength) Yeh shaadi, shaadi thodi na thi, bas 6 mahine ka samjhota tha, kabhi na kabhi to yeh din aana hi tha." " This marriage was never a real, it was a compromise for six months, this day had to eventually come."
Looking at a speechless Arnav, she forced a little more conviction to her voice and continued.
K- "Dekhiye Arnav ji, iss waqt aapka Di ke paas ho bahut jaroori hai, aap kahenge toh hum talaq ke papers 6 mahine tak nai bhejege, per ab Shantivan main humara rehna na-mumkin hai." "Listen Arnav ji, at this point in time You have to take care of Di, its of prime importance, if you say, I'll with-hold the Divorce papers till the six month deadline, but now I cannot live in Shantivan."
Arnav clutched her tightly on her upper-arms, she winced but silently reveled in his FINAL touch.
He without saying anything pushed her back and strode out.
Scene 9
Arnav walked into RM and into chaos, where all family members were pleading with Anjali to reconsider Khushi as she did with payal.
Nani- "Betiya khuhsi betiya bhi toh iss khandan ki hi bahu hai, agar tum payal betiya ko apna sakti ho toh khushi-" "Anjali darling, Khushi also is a daughter-in-law of the family, if you can accept Payal why not Khushi-"
Anjali- "Nani ji, humme majboor na karein hum-" "Nani ji, please don't force me to-"
A- "Di, aapko koi majboor nai karega, nani Khushi iss ghar main nai aayegi, aur jisko iss baat se taklif hai, woh Shanivan se jaa sakta hai." "Di, no one is going to force you, nani khushi will not return to this house and who-so-ever has a problem with this can leave shantivan."
Anjali-" Chotte, yeh kya-" "Chotte, what are you-"
A-" Bas Di, maine decide kar liya hai, iss ghar main na koi Khushi ki baat karega, na hi Gupta parivaar ki." "Thats it Di, I have decided that in this house neither will khushi be mentioned nor the Gupta family."
Akash- "Bhai, bas! aap har baat ka decision lene waale kaun hote hai, Payal meri wife hai! Main smajh sakta hun DI kis dhor se guzar rai hai, but issme Payal ka koi kasur nai." "Thats it bhai, who are you to take decisions for everything, Payal is my wife! I can understand the pain Di is going through, but payal is innocent in all this."
A- (scoffs) "Aaj wo agar tumhari patni hai toh meri wajh se, agar maine Khushi se contract marriage na ki hoti, toh-" "If today she is your wife, its because of me, if I had not married her on that contarct-"
As soon as the words were out of his mouth he realized what a blunder he had done, but a scorned lover has no sense left!
A- "You want to live with your wife, go live in your own house, but in my house, NEVER!"
Mami- "Bas Arnav bitwa, bahut hua, itne hi khatak rahe hai tumko toh chale jaaynge hum." "Enough Arnav, it is more than enough, if we are pricking like thorns to your eyes then we'll leave" she started crying midway.
Scene 10
Akash- "Bhai, aaj mujhe yeh aisaas hua ki aapne mera andh vishwaas kitna faida uthaya." "Bhai, today I have realised how you have misused my complete faith in you."
A- "Akash, leave me alone!"
From his room he saw His family leave, he was hurting but all he could think was, she didn't want to come back to ME!
