Aditya left with a driver for Mt Abu after his lunch...He will be returning back tomorrow morning...

...............

Next Day Morning

A black BWM pulled at the walia mansion parking. Aditya got out of the car followed by bani and rano...Bani who was clad in yellow color churidar fiddled with her duppata. seeing the huge mansion infront of her she didnt knew wether she did right by coming here or not.

Aditya shook her abit bringing her out of her thoughts. "chalo andar" said aditya politely while their butler took their lugagge...

Bani met jigyasa in the hall. before aditya could introduce her to bani. jigyasa affectionally placed her palm on bani's cheeks"tum bani hona?" Bani noded . aditya introduced jigyasa as his wife bani bended to take her blessings. jigyasa was now sure and happy with krishna's choice....

Leading to krishna's room bani felt more and more nervous. Rano just followed bani not knowing anything.

Once she reached inside krishna's room bani saw a thin figure laying on the bed. As she went closer she saw krishna. she had not seen her recently but her parents had shown her pictures..She looked at jigyasa who indicated her to sit beside krishna..

Krishna opened her eyes feeling someone beside her.when she looked at this young woman she smiled "bani.." she said weakly "kaisi ho beta.?" Bani noded her head "mein thik hu.. " she didnt knewwhat else to say. her mind just asking one question why was she...

Krishna spoke"beta mein janti hu tum yehi soch rahi ho na ke itne sallo baad meine tumhe kyu yaad kiya.. yaha kyu bulaya. ..." bani bowed downed "beta mein nahi janti ke iske baare mei tumhe pata hai ke nahi. bani tumhari shaadi kuch saalo pehle... bani hearing about her marriage before krishna could complete she spoke " mein janti hu meri shaadi kisi ke sath pakki hochuki hai jab mein chhoti thi. mujhe papa ne bataya... jab mummy papa ka accident huwa mummy ka usiwaqt dihant hogaya. jab hum hospital pohochhe papa ki tabiyat bhi kuch thik nahi thi. unhone marte samay mujhe bataya ke meri shaadi unke kissi dost ke beta ke sath tey huwi hai.isse pehle ki woh mujhe unka naam batate unki death hogayi."

Bani eyes got moist while saying all this. she wondered how krishna knew about this.Krishna was glad atleast she knew about this.Holding her hand she said "tumhari shaadi mere bete ke sath tey huwi hai. Jai se.."She looked at his son while saying so who was standing at the door looking at the women(bani & krishna).

Jai had kept looking at bani. today he found the reason why his mother never liked any of his girlfriends. she always used to say that none were perfect to be her bahu.Because she was finding bani in all his girlfriends. and jai couldnt blame her also, Bani was way different then any of his Gfs...

Bani was shocked hearing this. she looked up and followed krishna's gaze and for the first time she saw Jai.She looked back at krishna all confused."beta yahi hai woh insaan jiske sath tumhari shaadi tai huwi hai. mera beta.. Jai.."Bani felt a single tear drop from her eye. she had been thinking about "that man" who was supposed to marry her and today he was right there infront of her.

krishna continued saying "mein yeh rishta hote huwe dekhna chahti hu. tum dono ko pati patni ke roop mein dekhna chahtihu. yahi tumhare mummy papa aur mere pati ki iccha thi.mujhe hamesha se daar tha ke jai ki patni kaisi hogi par ajj tumhe dekhne ke baad mujhe pats hai ke agar mere jai ko koi sambhal sakta hai to woh tum ho.. beti karogi na mere jai se shaddi.banogi na uski patni" she pleades bani with her eyes..

Bani's vision go blury with the tears. krishna again repeated her question... Jai could sense his mother weakening. her breathings getting rapid. he hurridly says "ha maa hum shaadi karenge.." Bani eyes got wide as she turned to stare at jai in shock. Jai stares back at her and adds"bani is ghar ki bahu banegi maa."

He came towards his mother "abh app aram kijiye bakki bate baad mein karenge."But krishna wasnt satisfied yet she had still held bani's hands.Bani didnt knew how and when a faint "ji." had escaped from her mouth. but that made krishna leave her hand smiling she closed her eyes to rest.

Jigyasa takes bani and rano to the guest room as Aditya comes there jigyasa takes rano with her. Bani crys as Aditya trys to console her..

Jai comes in the guestroom and sees bani crying. he knew he was no one to take a decision about her life but he didnt have any other option.."adi..." he called out. announcing his present in the room .

Bani hurridly rubbed her tears and stood up. she was lost and angry. angry over this man. Aditya sensing the tension thought it was better if he left the two alone. making some excuse he left from there.

After some silence Jai spoke "I m sorry...woh meine tumhe puchhe bagar ha kehdi..."he accepted his mistake."But u could have seen maa's state.." he knew it was useless talking everything is riddles so he just said it what he wanted to"Bani please agree for this marriage. maa ki khatir.. mein wadaa karta hu iske baad tumhari marzi ke bagar kuch nahi hoga.."

He tried to take a step towards her when bani hurridly went back. Jai as if understanding her dilema said " bani you can trust me. hum pati patni hokar bhi hamare beech aisa koi rishta nahi hoga. like i had said before tumhari marzi ke bagar kuch nahi hoga. bani i love my mother alot. i did my best to save her par kismat ko kuch aur hi manzur hai. but i can atleast fulfil her last wish."

He waited patiently for her answer. he could have easily give her days to think over it but that was the thing he didnt have his mother didnt have. she was fighting with her death with every passing hour.

Bani didnt knew what to do. she still remembered her father's words about her marriage. it seemed like it was her parent's last wish too. She looked up to jai. and what she could see in his eyes was just helpless feeling. may be he was going through the same like her.she could trust me. and besides jigyasa and aditya was there for her...

She finally looking down agreed for it "thik hai." was all she said. but suddenly a thought crept to her mind yes jigyasa and aditya was there for her but then what about nights it will just be her and jai. what if he.. what if he tired to ... she hurridly looked up looking horrified...

"kya huwa.?" asked jai as he saw a changed of reaction on her face..bani fiddling with her duppata stammered "woh.. woh...rano.." rano's name just poped out of her mouth...

Jai shot both his eyebrows up. he was actually getting abit of what she might be thinking. clearing his throat he tried to answer her with all his calmness"rano will be leaving with us. right next to 'our' room ... thats if i ever try to jump on you. you can scream and ur baby sister can hear it and come for your rescue. "..silence for a while as bani gaped looking at him. he added "bani. i love my mother alot mein unki kasam khata hu mein utna bhi gira huwa insaan nahi hu ke ek ladki ki izzat ko na samaj saku.."

he turned and left from there leaving bani just stare at his back.
