Whenever PS leaves scenes incomplete or whenever I feel like they could have added some things in certain scenes, I tend to pen down my frustration in the form of an OS. I haven’t proof read this and wrote it down in a hurry. So here it is!
===============================================================================
The OS starts with Shiva thrashing the heart-shaped bouquet of roses going "Bhaad mein gaya yeh sab, aur bhaad mein gaya yeh proposal" taking one last glance at his Mami Ki Behen Ki Beti, before furiously rushing down from the terrace and out of the house.
===============================================================================
Raavi looks at his retreating figure disbelivingly, his last words ringing in her mind "Bhaad mein gaya yeh proposal". She starts looking around at the table, the lit candles, the rose petals, the setup and thinks "Yeh Bhoothnaath mujhe propose karne waala tha?"
As guilt starts seeping through her mind, she gets flashbacks of what he was trying to tell her earlier, when she was too angry and thinking about being left out from the loan kaand plan.
Tears start flowing down her cheeks, as she thinks about Shiva being upset.
"Hey Bholenath, yeh humesha mere saath hi kyun hota hai, ki har bhaar kuch accha hone ko jaa raha hota hai, aur har bhaar koi na koi misunderstanding beech mein aa jaati hai, kya mujhe gussa hone ka haq nahi, kya mujhe apna dukh dard jathane ka haq nahi? Main maanti hoon ki Shiva ne kahan tha, ki hum iss baare mein aaram se baad mein baat karenge, par yeh baat mujhe abhi bechain kar rahi hai, pareshaan kar rahi hai, toh isse main kaise bhool jaaon?"
She walks forlorn and kneels down towards the trashed bouquet and starts picking up the petals. "Abhi toh humaare beech sab kuch sahi ho raha tha aur Dhara Di ke iss plan ne sab kuch bigaad diya, mujhe toh yakeen hi nahi ho raha ki mere bandar ne yeh sab kuch kiya woh bhi mere liye, Mujhe Shiva se baat karni hogi, har baar ki tarah iss baar main humare jhagde ko adhura nahi chodungi, isse toh main suljhakar hi rahoongi" says firmly.
Meanwhile, Shiva is furious and pacing outside Pandya Niwas thinking about all the things that happened in the last few minutes. He wonders how his life took a 360 degree turn in a matter of an hour and how he switched from romantic to angry Shiva once again.
"Kahan mujhe laga tha ki iss naye saal ki shuruwaat main Chipkali ke saath apne dil ki baat keh ke karoonga, aur kahan main yahan gusse mein bhoothnath ki tarah bhatak raha hoon" surprised that he referred himself as a bhoothnath.
Shiva Pandya was always known for his hot-headedness, his anger and his aggressive nature. Never did they think that he would keep his anger aside and thinking about someone else’s hurt and pain. Especially his mami ki behen ki beti’s. Thinking about his Chipkali upset and sad on the terrace, made his anger wash away and it was replaced by guilt.
"Chipkali ne bhi sahi kehti hai Shiva, tu gadheda ka gadheda hi rahega, kya zaroorat thi wahan gusse se bouquet phek ne ki, chipkali ki shakal dekhi thi tune jab sab kuch kharab kiya, usse kitna buraa laga hoga, tu na gadheda ka gadheda hi rahega, ab chal jaake apni galti sudhaar, aur jaake usse baat kar" thought Shiva.
As Shiva walks back into the house and makes his way to the terrace, Dhara stops him and says "Shiva, kya hua, kahan chala gaya tha gusse mein, Raavi kahan hai, uss ne kuch kaha?"
"Bhabhi, aap mujhe aur chipakli ko humaare haal mein chod dijiye, hum apni ladai khud ladenge, khud milke suljaalenge, aap beech mein mat aaye, main sab sambhal loonga" said Shiva hurriedly and rushed to the terrace leaving his Bhabhi confused.
As Shiva enters the terrace, he collides with someone who walks right into him. He sees Raavi about to fall back due to the collision and grabs her by her waist and they share an eyelock. He straightens her up and they both look at each other and say "Woh..main" in unison.
They try again and both say "Sorry…" at the same time. Shiva gives a teensy smile to Raavi and says "Pehle main"
"Dekh Raavi mujh nahi maloom ki ek loan kaand ke plan ke baare mein tujhe naa batane se tujhe itni takleef kyun ho rahi hai, pann mujhe tujhse aise gussa ho ke nahi jaana chahiye tha, iss liye main wapas aaya hoon, tu apni baat, apni shikayaat sab kuch mujhse keh sakti hai, iss baar main bina gussa kiya sunoonga aur samajh ne ki koshish bhi karoon, pehle ke liye I am sorry, main apne surprise ke chakkar mein, tere dard ko nazarandaaz kiya, mujhe aisa nahi karna chahiye tha" said Shiva earnestly to Raavi.
Raavi looked at her Bhoothnath in awe and admiration, thinking is this the same Shiva who would never listen to anyone let alone resolve anything when he’s angry. Her moment is broken when Shiva persistently says "Kuch toh bol…"
"Shiva, mujhe bilkul bhi accha nahi lagta, jab tum log mujhse cheezein chupate ho, aisa lagta hai jaise main iss pariwar ka hissa hi nahi hoon, bachpan se leke aaj tak, maine iss pariwar ko apna maana hai, iss pariwar ka hissa banne ka sapna dekha, aur kal mujhe aisa laga jaise main kabhi iss pariwar ka hissa hoon hi nahi, yeh baat sirf loan ke papers churaane ka plan ki nahi hai, aisa lagta jaise meri koi value hi nahi aur koi mujhe apna samajhta hi, aur main Dev-Rishita ke liye itni pareshaan thi, phir bhi tujhe nahi laga ki tujhe mujhe batana chahiye ki Raavi hum sab sambhal lenge, woh log wapas aa jaayenge" questioned Raavi with her eyes filling up with tears.
Shiva slowly reaches out to their hands and takes her palms in his arms and says "Main maanta hoon ki humne tujhse yeh baat chupaayi, pann sirf iss liye kyun ki tune Dhara Bhabhi ke bacche waali baat sab ke saamne ugal di thi, aur main nahi chahta tha ki tu yeh bhi sab ko jaake bole, aur koi wajah nahi hai tujhse yeh baat chupaane ka, aur tu iss pariwar ka hissa bachpan se toh hai hi, pann ab naa tu meri biwi bhi hai, Raavi, toh iss ghar pe, sab pe aur mujhpe sabse zyaada haq tera hi hai, toh iss liye tu yeh sab khayaal apne dimaag se nikaal de, aur jo bhi teri shikhayaatein hai Dhara Bhabhi se, woh hum kal unse saath mein baithke baat kar ke suljhaa lenge, theek hai? Tu unhe apni badi behen maanti hai naa, toh kal tu unhe iss haq se apni saari baatein bata de, aur agar wahan koi problem hua toh main usse handle kar loonga"
Raavi squeezes his hands tightly and says "Thank you Shiva, meri baat samajhne ke liye, aur Sorry… tune mere liye yeh sab kiya aur mere wajah se sab kuch bigad gaya".
She leaves his hands and walks away much to his dismay. She picks up the flower that he had so sweetly offered to her earlier and holds it in front of him and says "Tu mere liye leke aaya thaa naa, kyun ki mujhe gulab pasand hai, ab main yeh tujhe de rahi hoon, kyun ki gulab ke saath saath mujhe tu bhi pasand aane laga hai, Shiva".
Shiva couldn’t believe what he was hearing as he accepted the rose from her and he saw her eyes shining with admiration for him. Now, it was his turn to finally tell her his "dil ki baat". Keeping the rose aside, Shiva takes a deep breath and a step towards her and clears his throat to say
"Main tere liye kuch special karna chahta tha, main iss party ko hum dono ke life ki sab se yaadgaar banana chahta tha, aur tu chahti thi naa ki main tere liye kuch kamaal karoon, toh iss liye maine yeh sab kiya taaki main tujhe keh saku ki ab tu mere liye sirf mami ki behen ki beti nahi rahi, aur mujhe tujhse dur nahi, tere paas rehna accha lagta hai, aur main humesha ke liye tere saath rehna chahta hoon, kyun ki tu mujhe bhi pasand aane lagi hai, Chipkali"
Shiva handed out his hand to her and said "Toh kya tu iss naye saal ki shuruwat mere saath humesha rehna ka faisla kar ke karegi?"
Raavi places her hand into his and says "Main toh humesha se tere hi hisse main aayi hoon, aur humesha tere saath rahoongi" while fireworks start bursting up into the sky marking the start of a new year, a new beginning.
Raavi as usual gets startled by the loud sounds coming from the fireworks and clings on to Shiva hugging him. Smirking at his Shechu, Shiva hugs her back saying "Chipkali, chahe jo bhi ho tera mujhse chipakna bandh nahi hoga na, tere iraade mujhe theek nahi lagta, jab dekho mujhse chipakne ke bahane dhoondti hai"
"Accha, Main bahane dhoondti hoon? Aur tu jo mere sone ke baad mujhe kiss kar raha tha uska kya?" says Raavi smugly breaking their hug.
Shiva’s eyes widen in shock as he looks at her and he is speechless as to what to say to her. Trying hard to reason with her, Shiva says "Woh… woh…. main….main"
"Teri gaadi woh… main… ke aage toh badne se rahi, tu na kaddu ka kaddu hi rahega, bada aaya mujhe bolne waala" said Raavi irritated.
Shiva pulls her closer to himself and slides his hands on to his waist and stares at her light brown orbs and speaks softly "Accha? Meri gaadi aage nahi badegi, theek hai, toh phir mujhe meri kiss wapis chahiye"
Raavi nervously tried to wiggle out of his arms and says "Shiva, chod na, koi aa jaayega, chod mujhe" while he shakes his head to indicate a "no".
She keeps trying struggling to escape and finally seeing her awkwardness, Shiva lets her go, and she rushes out of the terrace, but something makes her stop at the door, she turns back, runs to him, kissing him on his cheeks said "Yeh le, main udhar nahi rakti" while making a run for the door leaving a very stunned and astonished Bhootnath.

PS : I am not entirely satisfied with how I ended this, but couldn’t think of anything else and I don’t think they are yet in the "I love you", they still need to give each other sometime before crossing that bridge. I appreciate everyone’s feedback and criticism. Let me know what y’all think. Cheers!
