Recap: Gauri shared all her childhood memories with Shiv even Shiv shared his childhood memory with her. On the other hand Nikhila is rushing into getting Gauri married to Shiv. Why is Nikhila in a rush to get Gauri married to her son Shiv? Stay tune to find out more……………………………………………………….

Shiv and Gauri returned home late after Shiv's meeting with Mr. and Ms. Khanna Groups of Enterprise. Shiv asked Gauri – how is India? In return Gauri said "India is alright but boring because there is nothing to do instead sitting home and get bored. If I was in London I would practically stay home instead I would party all night with my friends at their place or the pub.

Shiv looked into Gauri's eyes and can't believe that he thought this girl was those boring type girls who likes to stay home and cook, but he was wrong she is just like him. They both have respect for elders even though in their personal lives they are something else they both like parting all night with their friends and going to the pub. Gauri asked Shiv nicely why he was starring at her for a-a-long time. Without saying a word Shiv parked the car outside the Kapoor house and told Gauri to go inside cause he has to go and pick up his cousins' from the airport because he is the only one who knows they are coming. "As you wish Shiv Kapoor, but what am I going to do home all alone instead why don't I come with you than we all can go out for dinner if the flights on time." Said by a innocent Gauri

Shiv again looked into Gauri's eyes "Fine with me, but I'm warning you their flight might be a little late and they might also stay at their apartment near by the Kapoor's farmhouse." Gauri also look back into Shiv's eyes saying "I don't give a heck in how late we return home because I can't sleep early and if I have to sleep early I need one hard drink to fall asleep." Shiv smiled at Gauri's innocent while at home Mahen was worried sick about the kids even Nikhila, but in away Nikhila was happy that the kids are spending time together so it won't take them longer to get comfortable with each other, but on the other hand she was also scared for the kids.

Gauri watched Shiv wait impatiently for his cousin. Gauri also wondered if she will ever get to meet her friend Chor, but where will she look for him? "Gauri, what are you thinking about?" Said by Shiv Gauri looked at Shiv with tears "Shiv, do you think that I'll find Chor in India, but where? For a sec Shiv wanted to go over there and wipe her tears saying "everything will be fine," but he also knew that Gauri was closer to Chor according to their conversation they had earlier.

"Nikhila this is the limits……………………………….soon as Shiv comes home he is getting the beats from me." Said by Mahen walking back and forth

Nikhila tried her best in clamming Mahen, but nothing was helping because he knew that Shiv was getting it from him. "Mahen don't worry Shiv is responsible person who must be stuck in traffic"

Mahen looked at Nikhila "Nikki I know how responsible your son is, but I am not worried about him but in-fact for Gauri who is hardly knowing India……………………………………………"

"Shiv don't you think we should call home saying we are going to be late because of your meeting" Said by Gauri, looking out the window of the airport

"Maybe your right, but what should I tell them that we are going to be late and maybe eat out or should I just tell them the truth" Shiv looking at Gauri for answer

Gauri placed her hand on Shiv's shoulder "Shiv take my advise and tell them that we are at one of your business meeting that might take a-long time that we planned to eat out instead of telling them we are at the airport waiting for your cousins because you don't want to ruin your parents' anniversary gift. Right"

Shiv also looked back into Gauri's eyes saying to himself – that even though Gauri is raised in London by her grandparents but she as a heart of Indian. For the first time Shiv felt himself getting close to Gauri after Ipshita. But he also knows that Gauri as feelings for Chor and he respects her from bottom of his heart. "Gauri, can I ask you a question?"

Gauri just nod her head indicating "yes" – Shiv was looking here and there "Shiv, what's the matter?"

"Gauri, how can I put this?" Shiv looked out the window

Gauri placed her hands on his hands saying "Shiv, what's the matter?"

"Gauri the matter is" Shiv pauses for ten seconds than said "Gauri, what if you don't find your, Chor than are you going to get married to someone" Gauri looked into Shiv's eyes understanding his confusion, but she also had made up her mind that "Ab Ke Baras she only belongs to him her Chor"

Mahen walked around the garden waiting for Shiv's return with Gauri.

Enjoy and love you all.....
