Raghav and Kalpi were from the new generation and didn't believe that Kalpi's family could not stay with them. Raghav had his mom, true, but he also needed the rest of a family. Gauri had also admitted that sometimes she felt lonely.
So now..RagNa, SaKhi, Pakhya, Gauri, and VitthLa lived under the same roof in Raghav's mansion. They were all really happy to be together. But not for long...Pookhi (Me) has come to add a few twists into their boring old life.
Suicide
Gauri watched them leave with a sad look on her face. "Hum sab yahaan saath rehte hai lekeen phir bhi itna boring sa kyun hai? Bacho ko toh har vakt kaam ki padi rehti hai."
She shook her head sadly and went into her room. Picking up her pen, she started to write to her eldest son and bahu. Raghav and Kalpi. Though it was a different matter that she didn't write their names.
Dear Bacha aur Bachi,
Shehd re gayi mein apne pyaar mein kachi.
Aap log toh jeise mujhe bhool hi gaye.
Kya aapko fikar nahi hai mere baarein main?
Haan jeise jeise old ho rahi hoon mein aur bhi hoon boring
Magar aap logo ke paas patience bhi honi chahiye in storing
Karne jaa rahi hoon mein voh, dekh li jiye aap log.
P.S. Jo letters pink mein hai usse patta chalega ki main kya karne jaa rahi hoon!
Gauri wiped her tears away and shut herself in the store room. She wiped her tears away and sniffed. "Yahaan se acha toh angels mujhe heaven main gaana sunaayege aur kam se kam main bore toh nahi hoongi" Gauri mumbled to herself. She pulled out a knife and gulped.
Meanwhile, in the office Kalpana was typing on her laptop just as Raghav came in. "Ji?" she asked looking up. "Voh mein.." Raghav said trying to hide his smile. "Tumaare liye ye" he said. Kalpana looked as he reached into his pocket and pulled out a locket. It was heart shaped. Kalpi's face spread into a smile. "Arre Raghav..!" she exclaimed jumping out of her chair and moving to stand right next to him. He grinned and opened it. One one half was his picture and on the other half was Kalpi's picture. Kalpi took the locket in her hands and murmured, "How sweet!" Raghav pulled her into a hug. "Anything for you."
On the other hand, in the storeroom Gauri was turning the knife around in her hands. It was sharp. It would also hurt. 'Do I really want to do this?' she asked herself. 'No' a voice inside her said. 'You're right' she told the voice. 'I don't.' 'But I was so sure that I was going to' Gauri thought. 'You can always change your mind' Gauri thought. "I won't suicide, then" Gauri said smiling. "Mere bache toh bas busy hai." Then, as suddenly noticing Gauri dropped the knife. She shook her head as she took a step back. "Thank god, I dropped that thing, I would really have killed myself" she thought. Gauri turned to go back out of the storeroom. But the door wouldn't budge. It was locked. 'There you go Gauri' a voice in her head mocked.
"Mujhe neend aa rahi hai" Gauri told herself while sitting down. Looking down at her sandals which were brown, she leaned against the wall and fell asleep. So tired she was that she didn't even notice her phone beep. Kalpana was texting her to say that they would come home early today so they could all sit down and have dinner for some family time. After that, Kalpana tried calling her. Gauri was imagining Mr. Singhaniya singing and didn't hear her phone ringing.
As the four entered the mention, Kamla Ma quickly rushed up to them. "Aap log aa gaye" she said happily. "Coat di jiye" Kamla said. Sammy shook his head. "Aap humaari Kamla MA hai koi servant nahi." Kamla sighed. Her children took care of her so much! "Mom kahaan hai?" Kalpana asked her Ai. "Patta nahi subah se dekha nahi" Kamla replied. "Acha, I'll just go look for her" Kalpi said. "I'll come with you" Paakhi said.
Meanwhile, Raghav's went into the kitchen to get something to eat when his eyes fell on a piece of loose leaf paper attached to the refrigerator. Pushing the magnet aside he grabbed it to read. "Guys!" he yelled as soon as he was finishing. Everyone rushed into the kitchen. "Kya hua?" Kalpi asked him. Raghav handed the paper to her. Once the paper had gone through everyone's hands Raghav said, "Voh kya karne waali hai?" "P.S. bhi hai" Kalpana said looking down at the bottom of the letter. "Jo letters pink mein hai usse patta chalega ki main kya karne jaa rahi hoon" Kalpana read. They all looked over her shoulder as Kalpana circled all the pink letters with a pen. "Su-i-ci-de" Kalpi read. "Omg!" Pakhya yelled. "Lekeen yeh bacha aur bachi kaun hai?" Paakhi asked. "Obviously Raghav aur Kalpi" Sammy snapped. What did it matter! They had to save Gauri Ma and here Paakhi was asking silly questions. Paakhi's eyes teared up. 'Yeh sab mujhe ignore kyun kar rahe hai?' she thought.
Precap: They hear someone banging on the store room door.
A while later, Paakhi is in her room thinking about everyone's ignorance. What will she do?š
