While Ganga is running to Bani, who has her hands open out…The kidnapper gets out a gun and shoots…

"BANG"

Jai-GANGA!!!

Bani-Vidya!!

Bani-Vidya kaise hai doctor?

Doctor-Abhi hum kuch bhi nahi kehsak the, liken Vidya ki halath karaab hoti ja rahi hai…

Bani-Kya app kuch bhi nahi karsak the?

Doctor-I'm afraid not, app please Vidya ki parents ko buladiyjiye…

So much had happened in this last few days…Bani fell down on her knees, as she cried out…Jai came to her and picked her up from the floor, and held her in his arms…He pacified her, reassuring her that Vidya would be fine..

Bani-(holding her head)Patha nahi kaise ladki hai Vidya, Ganga ko goli lagne wali thi aur patha nahi yeh Vidya kahan se beech main agaye…

Jai-Shayad voh gari main beet gaye, jab hum Kali mandir wale pahadi par gaye…

Bani-Par, usne assa kyun kiya…Jab Rasshi yahan ayyegi toh main usshe kya kahoongi…?

Rasshi-(comes near Bani and Jai)-App yeh kaise bathein kar rahi?Mujhe yakin hai ki Vidya ko kuch bhi nahi hoga..aur agar kuch ho bhi gaya..(eyes swelling)..toh bhi mujhe koi gham nahi hoga, kyunki meri beti neh appni behean ki jan bachaye thi…Ab app hi bathao Mami, kya mujhe garv nahi hona chahiyeh iss bath par..

Bani-(letting go of Jai, goes to rashhi and hus her)-(starts to cry again, uncontrollably)-Tum ithni achi kyun ho Rasshi?

Rasshi-(hugging back)-

Doctor-App please under jaeyeh, Vidya appko bularahi hain..

Rasshi, Ranveer, Jai and Bani go inside…Vidya slowly opens her eyes. When she does she finds her entire family standing before her..Dadi, Masi..Adi, Jigyasa, Rano even Tony…

Vidya-(breathing heavily)-Mummy…App…mujhse naraz toh nahi ho nah..

Rasshi-(smiles)-Bilkul nahi..balki mummy bouth kuch hain, ki appne Mummy ka sir Garv se uncha kardiya…(a tear now rolling down her eye)

Vidya-Mummy…App…app promise karo …(coughing)…ki app nahi roogi..

Rasshhi-I promise beta..

Vidya-Ganga?

Ganga-(crying)-tum jaldi teek hogao..hum saath beach jaengeh…

Vidya-Hmm…jaengeh…Nanaji?Naniji?

Bani-Jai-Haan beta..

Vidya-App, app dono kabhie saath hi nahi hote…App wada karo ki app humesha saath raho geh…

Dadi-Haan beta..main aur billo jaaengeh…

Vidya-Aur Dadu…app Dadi ko zyadda tang maath karna..

Adi-(looking at Jigs weep)-(nudges her)-Promise Beta..

With that last vada…Vidya…takes her last breathe…She takes a deep breathe..her chest inflates and her back hits the bed…

Rasshi-VIDYA!!!

The doctor comes rushing in…and declares that…

Vidya..

Is

In a

COMA>>>

…

Everyone goes home, a few days WM was quiet..but soon everyone tried to stay happy with the fact that Vidya was still alive…They all tried to keep a happy face for Bani, who was now expecting…

2 months pass, and Bani looked 7 months pregnant…

Jai-(coming near Bani)-Hey..(kissing her check)

Bani was surprised by his forwardness, she didn't say anything though…but she felt strange…After Ganga had been kidnapped jai and Bani stopped fighting…You could say that Ganga made them realize that they were all incomplete without each other…Jai and Bani were a lot closer, but not extremmly touchy…at least not yet…

Jai-(taking off his coat)-I really think we need to see a doctor…You look like your due any day now..

Bani-(squinted her eyes)-Jai!!..(seeing Dadi)-DADI!!dehko nah, Mr.Walia mera mazak urarahe hain…

Dadi-Arre Putter…Jai!!Tu kyun mazak uraraha hai meri Bani ka…

Jai-Sorry dadi…

6 months past , and now it was Bani's 8^th month…and it was her gowd Barahi..(baby shower)…and Jai had a surprise ready for her…

Bani wore a green sari…with havey silver embroidered palu…she wore her Sari gujrati style, and the blouse was a zipper one…The palu was over her head, and she looked like a bride…well…and fat one…but a bride none the less..

Bani-(putting her earings on)-Uff..ithna time lagtha hai..tayaar hone main..

Jai-(coming behind her)-Tum bouth achi lagrahi ho…

Bani-(attempting to zip her back)-uhhhh

Jai-(got closer and zipper her back)-There we go, ab chale..

Bani-Thanks…aur app??App neche nahi ja sak the..

Jai-Haan…patha hai..par main tumhe neeche choor kar asak tha hoon..

Bani-Nahi..Rano athi hogi…

Rano-I'm HERE…

Jai helped Bani get up and then rano took over…even though Jai was supposed to stay in his room he watched Rano lead Bani down the stairs…

Rano-Another step..

Bani-(looking at Rano)-I know rano..tum bhi bilkul Mr.Waliaaaaaaaaaaaaa….

Bai slipped on the step, her ankle bent…Jai ran at the site getting there just in time, he caught her just as she was going to hit the floor…Jai looked at her with a sigh of relief and an angry look…

Jai-Tum teek toh ho..

Bani-(feeling a bit dizy)-Haan..

Jai lead her down the rest of the stairs…He sat her down in her chair…and then quietly went back upstairs into his room…after all the rasams…Bani came back up..Jai was waiting for her, and blindfolded her..

Bani-Mr.Walia yeh app kya?

Mr.Walia-Tumhe mujhpar barosa hai na..

Bani-appne app se zyada…

Jai led Bani to another room on their floor..

Jai-(taking her blindfold off)-Surprise!!!

Bani-(opening her eyes…she put her hands on her mouth)-OMG!!..Mr.Walia..its beautiful…

Jai had decorated Krishna and atharva's nursery all over…leaving the two cribs in tact…Bani was really happy, Jai even put a picture of Krishna Atharva Jai and Bani…the only one that they had…

The next morning…Bani went to take a shower, when she came out she saw Jai was fast asleep, she went to his bedside, and ran her hand threw his hair…she then bent to kiss his forehead..but to her surprise he was awake…he sat up…Bani's facial expression changed…and she held her stomach…

Bani-Ah..Mr.Walia..

Jai-What!!kya hua?

And with that they were off to the hospital…Bani was on a stretcher, and into the operation theater…Jai paced the hall…and in a half an hour the nurse came out..

Nurse-Mr.Walia…congratulations…app please under jaeyeh..

Jai was delighted..he ran into the room…seeing Bani and what he thought was a miracle..

Jai-(his hands to his mouth)-Yeh!!Humare hain??

Bani-(pale face, smiling)Haan Mr.Walia, yeh theenoon humare hain..

Jai-(spinned in a circle with happiness)-What!!I..I have triplets..!!!

Jai went next to Bani, who was holding one, he took the baby that was laying down next to her…another baby was in the crib…

Jai-Aww…

Bani-Appne koi naam sochkar rakha hai…

Jai-Haan, Krishna aur Atharva…

Bani-Aur humari dusri beti ka..??

Jai-hmm..soch na pade ga…

Bani-Arre..vidya kahan hain..kaise hain..??

Jai's face turned pale…his eyes wet…

Jai-(going near Bani, still holding his son)-Bani..voh Vidya…tumhari delivery ke kuch hi minute pehle, she passed away…

Bani-(her eyes widened, she began to cry)-Kya!!

Jai put his son down in the other crib, and the baby Bani was holding in another crib…He held Bani as she cried..

Jai-Maath roo Bani..

Rasshi-(came in, with smile)-Congratualtions Bani Mami..

Bani-(she extened her arms out for Rasshi's hug.)

Rasshi ran into Bani's arms and cried her heart out…

Three days past…and today was Bani's discharge day, they also had to fill out the childrens names, and it was Vidya's betak…

Nurse-Appke bete ka naam?

Bani-(looking at Jai)-Atharva Jai Walia..

Nurse-Appko sabse phele ladki hui thi, waise toh appka beta ready tha, liken lagtha hai appki beti ko jaldi thi…anyway..appki badi beti ka naam..

Bani-(looking at Jai, holding his hand)-Vidya Ranveer Walia..

Nurse-Aur appki dusri Beti ka naam..

Bani-(squeezed Jai's hand)-Krishna Jai Walia…

Nurse-Okay..Mr.Walia..app yahan sign kijiya…aur Mrs.Walia app yahan…

Jai and Bani signed…then the entire family came in to see the kids and take them home…

Bani-(jai helped her up)-Rasshi..tum isse pakaro..

Bani and Rasshi both held chooti Vidya…and Bani spoke..

Bani-Ajj se yeh tumhari hai..isska naam Vidya Ranveer Bali hai…

Rasshi-(her throught filled up)-Kya..mami?

Bani-Haan, birth certifivate par mere aur Mr.Walia ka naam hai..liken isski maa tum aur pitha Ranveer hai…Vidya neh Ganag ke liye jo kiya..voh main kabhie nahi bhool sak thi…aur wase bhi usne kaha tha…ki voh vapiss ayyegi..yeh dehkne kiliye ki main aur Mr.Walia saath hai…Ab dehko na..voh aye bhi toh kahan?? Humare ghar main… Tumhari Vidya loot aye hai..Rasshi..Loo..(bani let go)…

Rasshi held Vidya close to her and cried…

The entire family was proud of Bani because what she did, and so was Jai…The family went home, and saw the pandit there…

Pandit-Kithni achi thi humari beti..bagwan ko pyari hogaye…liken dehko bagwan ka karishma…voh vapiss isshe ghar main janami..(he held Vidya)..(to rasshi)-Beta..Achhe loogoon ke saath humesha achha hota hai…

Rasshi-Nahi Punditji…jab appke pass ithni ahce appne hoon, (referring to JB), toh phir kisaur ki kya zarrorath hai…

Later Night in JB's room

Bani-(putting Krishna to sleep)-Mr.Walia, app thak gaye hoongeh..mujhe atharva de diyjiye…

Jai-Tum kya kehna chathi ho(now sitting on the bed next to her)-Ki main inhe samalnahi saktha…

Bani-teek hai, agar samalsak the hain..toh yeh loo…(giving him Krishna), main bhi toh deekoon ki app mere beggar(with out me) kaise inhe samalthe hain…Main ja rahi hoon..
