this idea came into my mind after reading 19th & 20th's updates. i tried to put the words correctly but dont know how much i succeed. plz forgive my mistakes.
Selfish Love
"She told you that she loves me and you believed her, didn't you Mr. Jai Walia? You actually believed that she loves me" a bitter laughter came out from Daksh.
Jai Walia wass in a daze. Everything was so unexpected.
Daksh stopped laughing abruptly. "Mr. Jai Walia, you are married to another woman for six whole years. For the whole world she is Mrs Jai Walia. And you come to Bani asking her to return in your life and she returns to you? Itna hi jante hai aap Bani ko? Tell me Mr Walia, itna hi pahchana apne usko?"
Then it hit him. He sat down like a zombie. Not knowing what to do or what to say.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" ,asked Jai in a tired voice.
"Because she gave me Ganga's kasam." answered Daksh bitterly.
"Another thing Mr Walia. Bani never signed the divorce paper."
From distance Meera heard Daksh's words. Dumbstruck. She stood rooted to the spot like a statue.
Three months passed after that faithful night. Pallavi's in-laws said that the wedding cant take place because JW has 2 wives. Jai told them that he is going to divorce Bani. He gave a long lecture that he thinks only Meera as his wife and fills Meera's mang with sindoor. But Bani gave the final blow by giving him divorce paper right there. Seething with anger Jai signed the papers and stormed out from there. Bani went with Daksh leaving WM. Daksh took Ganga to Bani occasionally. Bani did not allow anyone to come to see her. However anyone might try. She was adamant. She also forbade Ganga from telling anyone anything about her.
No one saw or heard from or about Bani except from that day. Daksh called requesting them to come to the hospital.

"Why di? Why did you do this?", said Rano in a broken voice. Tears were streaming down on her face. "Kamse kam mujhe to bolte up. Mujhse bhi nehi kaha. Itni paraya hogayi hoon mai aapki?"
"I am very sorry Rano. But.." she continued with a very weak voice.
*****
Jai sat there, outside Bani's cabin, thinking about the last three months. The last three months was hell for him. He didn't know anything about Bani. Where was she, how was she nothing. The only thing he knew about her was she was staying with Daksh and she used to go to doctor regularly. Thanks to Ganga's slip of tongue. That was enough for him. He was so angry with her that he even didn't want to know to which doctor is she going. How dare she give him divorce paper. But why shouldn't she? Though he singed the divorce paper he never could get over with it. doesn't matter how many times he said that he considers only Meera as Mrs Jai Walia or put MS around her neck or fill her mang with sindoor, he could never see her as his wife. It was a sheer torture for him. He just couldn't make himself accept Meera. No matter how much he tried to convince himself that Bani was his past. But it never worked.
He was feeling exhausted.
*******
Rano saw Jai entering the cabin. She stood up and moved from her place. Jai sat beside Bani on her bed.
"I am sorry", Bani said after a while with great difficulty.
Jai brushed his lip lightly with hers. Then settled his head in the crook of her neck. Both of them let out a long sigh. Their last breath.
Meera watched them through the glass window of the cabin.
"No one can separate Bani di and Mr Walia" The very first comment she heard from Rano after Bani's return kept ringing in her ears.
*******
Purva: You bought all the things I asked you to?
Nattu: Check the bag if anything is missing.
Purva: ok.
Rano: Purva, Where is Ganga? And Varun?
Purva: With Adi uncle in the terrace.
Daksh: Anyone need any help? I am free.
Purva: Please call Ranveer. He promised that they would reach here around 6. Ask him what is taking them long.
Daksh: ok.
Everyone got busy with Holy preparation. 10 years passed after Jai & Bani's death. Many things changed in these 10 years. Adi, Dadi, Nattu, Purva, Rano left WM the very day of JB's death. With Daksh and Rano's help he reopened BN companies. Aditya stood behind them as only guardian. made Massi couldn't take the shock of JB's death. She had heart attack and died. One year after Massi's death Dadi too died.
Ranveer went to Delhi with his family.
Rano stopped in front of JB's picture while going to terrace. Bani's last words came floating back in her mind.
"Why di? Why did you do this?", said Rano in a broken voice. Tears were streaming down on her face. "Kamse kam mujhe to bolte up. Mujhse bhi nehi kaha. Itni paraya hogayi hoon mai aapki?"
"I am very sorry Rano. I know I have hurt you all. But Rano I wanted to be selfish. For the first and last time in life I wanted to be selfish. Selfish for my love. I know that I shouldn't do all this drama. I know I shouldn't play with Ganga. But I needed to. I wanted to be with Mr Walia for the last time. But I didn't want him to come back to me. I had a very short time left. I wanted him to move on with Meera. That's why I changed all the reports. I bribed the doctor to tell that Ganga has leukemia. Ganga is not ill. She is perfect. I have leukemia. I talked with Ganga. But you need to explain to her when she grows up. Promise me Rano that you will make her understand please."
"I will do that Di but why did you.."
"Because I knew that I only had 3 months. I used Ganga, Rano. I used my daughter to be with my love for one last time. I acted as a selfish mother…… For my selfish love"
Bani broke down crying after that.
A single tear rolled down Rano's cheek. She smiled in spite of herself. How wrong was her Di. She wanted Jai to move on with Meera and wanted Meera to bring up Meera. But alas! Jai left this world with her. And Meera. She ended up in mental asylum.
"What are you thinking Rano beta?" Adi's voice brought her out from her thought.
"Nothing Papa. Aysehi…"
Adi brushed away the tears from Rano's eyes. "Ganga and Varun are waiting for you"
"Oh haan."
Adi watched her retreating figure for some moment. Them looked at the picture.
"Kal holi hai. Happy Holi Jai Bani"
