What is the lucky group?
When I sent out the PM some of you would have received something saying:
You're the lucky group! Enjoy the chocolates!

I was bored so I decided to this! Every time I PM you, there will be one lucky group of 20 who will receive chocolates each time! If you are in the lucky group make sure you mention this through your comments! You can say a simple:
⭐️ 😊 I am in the lucky group 😊 ⭐️
Make sure you say mention it in your comments if were in the Lucky Group!
Only one group will be the *Lucky Group* each time I PM you!
I will pick the Lucky Group randomly (no favoritism at all)!
Keep checking your Inbox each time I PM you to find out whether you are in the Lucky Group or not! 😆

Recap:
Virat saw her wiping something off of her maang. Her eyes were filled with tears. It was then when he realised what he had done. Without having the slightest idea, he had filled her maang.
After one entire year'he had once again made Maanvi his.
Part 4
When Maanvi woke up the next morning she saw a tiny piece of paper pocking out from underneath her pillow. She reached towards it and opened it up. It was a note from Jeevika Di.
Maanvi: Yes Di, I promise you. I won't get myself in a mess. Well, at least I'll try not to.
Maanvi forced herself out of the bed into the bathroom to wash her face. She was extremely determined to get to breakfast in time but she knew she would fall asleep again. As she was leaving after washing her face she noticed another not stuck on to the mirror.
Jeevika just knew Maanvi too well.
Mannu: Khaaloongi khanaa Di!
English:
I will eat the food Di!
Maanvi exited the bathroom and came back into the door. She was about to go down to breakfast when she saw another note on her room's door.
Maanvi looked down at herself. Yes'she was still in those dodgy green pyjamas with yellow polka dots. She forced herself to cupboard and opened it up. Maanvi was the kind of girl who took five minutes to get ready however, that was only when she was in jeans and a top. At the Vadhera house every girl was expected to wear a salwaar if they were unmarried and a saree if they were married. Maanvi did not know what to do. Would she be classified as married or unmarried? Then she noticed a light pink salwaar with a note attached to it.
Maanvi: Aapkey bina mein kya karungi Di?
English:
What will I do without you?
Then Maanvi looked down to what it said in the PS part of the message.
Kuch nahi.
Jeevika really did know Maanvi too well.
Maanvi took the salwaar out of the cupboard and looked at it. It kind of resembled the saree she had worn in her and Virat's marriage. The same embroidery and beading. Had Jeevika picked this particular dress on purpose? Trying not to think any further Maanvi put the dress on and went downstairs to breakfast.
Was it just her or was Virat staring at her as she came down the stairs? Great. He probably thought Maanvi had worn the dress on purpose to attract him or something. Sorry to say Virat but that was not the situation.
Vanshika: Agayi maanvi beta?
English:
You've arrived Maanvi.
Maanvi: Ha Maa. Sorry Dada Ji'late hogaya kya?
English:
Yes Maa. Sorry Dada Ji, am I late.
Dada Ji: Arrey nahi Maanvi. Tum purrey 30 second jaldi ayii ho table parr.
English:
No Maanvi! You are thirty seconds early!
Maanvi smiled and went to sit next to Vanshika. She stopped midway as she realized that if she sat next to Vanshika, Virat would be sitting on the other side of her. Why was this so hard?! Why couldn't Virat just go and sit somewhere else.
Vanshika: Kya hua Maanvi? Betho naa.
English:
What happened Maanvi. Sit down.
Maanvi: Huh? H-ha maa, ayi.
English:
Huh? Nothing Maa. I'm coming.
Maanvi made her way to her seat. Before she sat down she took the blessings of Vanshika. Maanvi wasn't really a "touch the feet for blessings" girl but her relation to Vanshika was different. Vanshika felt like Maanvi's mother and Maanvi knew that if her mother were still alive she would try and gather as many blessings as possible from her. Since she wasn't alive Maanvi always treated Vanshika as her mother and took as many blessing from her as she wanted. She felt privileged to have someone like Vanshika there for her. Vanshika put her hand on Maanvi's head.
Vanshika: Khush raho bahu.
English:
Stay happy and blessed.
And then Priya had an instant reaction.
Priya: Bahu?!
Maanvi: Bahu nahi...
English:
Not daughter-in-law...
Maanvi said looking at Vanshika.
Maanvi: Beti.
Vanshika smiled at Maanvi. No matter what happened she would always see Maanvi as Virat's wife. Nobody would ever be able to take her place.
Priya: Likin abhi tho aapney bahu kaha. I'm sure, aapney abhi bahu kaha. Kaha thaa na Virat?
English:
But just now you said daughter-in-law! I'm sure! She said it Virat, didn't she?
Virat's face was blank. He did not look up to respond and simply stared at his food.
Virat: Meinney nahi sunaa.
English:
I don't know. I didn't here.
Maanvi: Eh chep, beherey hogaye ho kya? Kuch sunayi hi nahi detha tumhey aaj kal.
English:
Hey, Chep! Have you gone deaf? You never hear anything nowadays!
Virat finally looked up at Maanvi. As soon as their eyes met there was a heavy feeling of awkwardness between them. However, no matter how awkward a situation was, Maanvi and Virat were always in the mood of teasing each other.
Virat: Sun bandariya. Mujhey teri bakwaas sunney ka koyi shok nahi hai. Mujhey sunayi detha hai, bass tumhey suna zaroori nahi samjha.
English:
Listen Bandariya! I don't want to listen to your blabber! Keep it to yourself because I don't find it important. I can here but I didn't find it necessary to listen to you!
Maanvi: Eh Bandar. Kuch original tho socha karo! Bohoth Shah Rukh Khan ki picture dekh hai mainney. Jo line Shah Rukh ney Main Hoon Na mein boli thii vayi bakthey jaarey ho. Plagiarism. Hmph!
English:
Stop Plagiarizing Bandar! You are copying Shah Rukh Khan's dialogue from Main Hoon Na! I watch Hindi movies and I know that you are copying him!
Virat: Sirf picture dekhthi ho ya aur bhi kuch karthi ho?
English:
Do you only watch films or do you do something else as well?
Maanvi: Karthi hoon na! Tumseyy bohoth saraa pyaar!
English:
Yes I do! I love you a LOT!
OH NO! How had Maanvi managed to let those words escape her mouth? Whenever Virat had asked her "Sirf picture dekhthi hoy a aur bhi kuch karthi ho?" Maanvi had always replied "Karthi hoon na. Tumseyy bohoth saraa pyaar." But that was when they loved each other, or should I say when they were together? But today's situation was different. Maanvi hadn't meant to say what she had but the words had just come out.
Maanvi and Virat stared at each other. Maanvi's eyes were full of tears. She still couldn't believe that she had just said that.
Yes, Miss Speedy Reaction, Priya had once again had a speedy reaction. She stood up from her chair in the most aggressive manner glaring at Maanvi.
Priya: Kya kaha tumney? Iss baar tho sabney sunliya. Tum Virat seyy pyaar karthi ho? How dare you?!
English:
What did you say? How dare you say you love Virat?
Priya went right up to Maanvi. Feeling insulted she raised her hand to slap her but someone stopped her. Maanvi looked up to see her the boy she had always loved standing there. Virat. Her Virat.
Virat: Kya kar rahi thii tum Priya?
English:
What were you about to do Priya?
Priya: Virat issneyy kaha ki yeh tumsey pyaar karthi thii.
English:
Virat, she said that she loved you!
Virat: Mujhsey nahi baath kar rahi thi vo.
English:
She wasn't talking to me!
Maanvi thought in her head, "Really Virat? That was the best you could think of?!"
Priya: Tho tum ussey zara poocho. Kisskey baarey mein baath kar rahi thii vo?
English:
Then who was she talking to?
Virat: K-k-kissey baath kar rahi thi? Tumhey issey kyu matlab. Meinney kehediya na ki mujhsey nahi baath kar rahi thi bas topic finish.
English:
No one. She wasn't talking to me. Topic finish!
Priya: Nahi! The topic is not finished! Maanvi; main tumsey kuch pooch rahi hoon. Tum kissey baath kar rahi thii. Kissey pyaar karthi ho tum?
English:
The topic is not finished! Maanvi, I am asking you something! Who were you talking to?!
Maanvi: Hai koy. Mera raaj kumaar.
English:
There is someone! My prince!
Virat eyed Maanvi.
Maanvi: Vo roj merrey sapno mein aatha hai aur mujhey ghorey mein bithaakar, shaadi ka joda mein door lejaatha hai.
English:
He comes in my dreams every day and takes me on his horse whilst I am wearing a beautiful wedding dress!
Priya: Tumharaa boyfriend hai?
English:
You have a boyfriend?
Maanvi: Hai! Mera boyfriend hai!
English:
Yes! I do have a boyfriend!
Virat: KYAAA?!!!!
Virat grabbed Maanvi to the shoulders and pushed her to the wall.
Virat: Tumharra kya hai?!!
English:
You have a WHAT?!
Maanvi: Boyfriend.
Virat: Jhoot bol rahi ho tum.
Maanvi: Virat? Main jhoot kyu bolungi. Aur mera boyfriend honnay na honnay sey tumhey kyu farak parthaa hai.
English:
Why would I lie? And why does it matter to you whether I have a boyfriend or not?!
Virat let go of Maanvi and stepped back. She was right. Why did he care whether or not Maanvi had a boyfriend. As much as he tried to prevent his thoughts and curiosity he couldn't.
Priya and Virat: Kaun?
English:
Who is your boyfriend?
There was a moment of silence. Vanshika and Dada Ji were praying that Maanvi hadn't fallen in love with someone else. They still had the hope of her and Virat being together again.
Virat: Maanvi meinney tumsey kuch puchaa? Kaun hai vo?!!
English:
I am asking you something! Who is your boyfriend?!
Maanvi: Dada Ji!
Maanvi said cheekily.
Virat: Dada Ji?!
Maanvi: Dada Ji.
Virat had gone mad at her. She had scared him so much. Why he was so concerned that Maanvi had a boyfriend he did not know. But he was and that's all he knew.
Trying to not express his inner feelings, Virat started another cute fight with Maanvi.
Virat: Dada Ji tumharrey boyfriend nahi ho sakthey.
English:
Dada Ji can't be your boyfriend!
Maanvi: Kyu nahi ho sakthey? Mainney kaha na. Vo merrey boyfriend hai!
English:
Yes, Dada Ji is my boyfriend!
Virat: Nahi hai!
Maanvi: HAI!!
Virat: NAHI HAI!!
Every time Maanvi said "Hai!" she stepped closer to Virat and every time Virat said "Nahi Hai!" he stepped closer to Maanvi until their noses were touching. The flurry of noise continued until one very angry Bua Ji said something.
Swamini: Bass! Hum yaha breakfast karney aye hai. Jissey khaana hai vo khay aur jissey nahi khaana vo yaha sey chaley jaye. Priya aur Virat beta, ajaao, khaalo.
English:
Stop this nonsense. Priya and Virat, come and eat!
Vanshika: Ajao Maanvi beta. Tum bhi khaalo.
English:
Maanvi, come you eat as well!
Just as Maanvi was about to sit down Swamini said something that pierced her heart.
Swamini: Arrey Maanvi! Sunotho! Dada Ji tumharrey boyfriend nahi hai. Tum unkey layak nahi ho.
English:
Maanvi, Dada Ji can't be your boyfriend, you are not worth him.
This were exactly the words Swamini had said to Maanvi a year ago when she was leaving the Vadhera house. "Virat tumharra pathi nahi hai. Tum usskey layak nahi ho."
Silence spread everywhere. The whole family recognised what Swamini had just intended to say, even Virat. Maanvi closed her eyes tightly. She tried to stop those tears falling from her eyes but she couldn't. A crystal tears slipped down from her chestnut eyes and splashed onto Virat's hand. Virat turned and looked up at Maanvi's face. Maanvi began walking away from the table.
Virat: M-M-Maanvi!
Vanshika: Arrey Maanvi. Kuch khaatho lo.
English:
Maanvi, eat something!
Maanvi turned around to look at Vanshika.
Maanvi: Nahi maa. Peyt bhaar gaya.
English:
No Maa, I am full.
In saying that Maanvi turned around and left to her room upstairs.
Virat banged his fist on the table.
Virat: Bua Ji? Kya zaroorath thii Maanvi ko vo baath keheney ki?
English:
Bua Ji? Why did you need to say that?
Priya: Arrey Virat. Tum aur Maanvi iss baath ko leykey ithna serious kyu horrey ho? Swamini Bua Ji tho sirf mazaak sey keheri thii. I'm sure.
English:
She meant it as a joke Virat. Why are you and Maanvi so serious?
Virat: Priya, tum chup rahogi.
Priya: Virat. Vo ladki kilye tum mera moon band karvaney chah they ho? Kya lagthi kya hai vo tumhaari.
English:
Your telling me to be quiet because of Maanvi? Why? What is Maanvi of yours?
Virat: Jaaney chah thi ho. Sunney chah thi ho? Tho phir suno. Maanvi meri-
English:
You want to know? Then listen. Maanvi is my-
But Vanshika stopped him.
Virat: Maa. Yeh aakhri baar hai. Isskey baad mein chup nahi rahunga.
Swamini: Virat. Vaysey meinney galath kya kaha? Sahi tho kaha meinney. Uss din tho tum bhi bol rahey theyy ki mein sahi thii. Aur kal thak bhi tum Maanvi seyy door reheneyy ki koshish kar rahey theyy, tho phir aaj kya hogaya?
Priya: Maanvi seyy door? Koy mujhey bathayeh ga ki ho kya raha heyy?
Virat: Swamini Bua kal ki baath alag thii. Ab jab Maanvi zindagi mein aagey bharna chah rahi hai tho aap ussey peechey kyu kheech rahi hai?
Swamini:Virat mein jo kar rahi hoon tumhaari bhalayi kilye kar rahi hoon.
Virat: Aur Maanvi? Maanvi kilye aap ussey kithna dard de rahi hai aapney socha?
English:
In the above dialogues basically Swamini and Virat are fighting. Virat is asking her why Swamini needed to say such a thing and Priya is questioning what is happening as she is not aware of Virat's past. Virat is telling Swamini that Maanvi is trying to run away from her past, then why are you pulling her back? Swamini just asks him that until yesterday he thought she was right, what has happened now? And she just wants the best for him. Virat asks her...do you think this is the best for Maanvi along with me? You are just making her fell worse!
With this Virat stomped off from the table and went upstairs. On his way Virat thought how overboard he had gone. What had happened to him. Why had he suddenly become so protective of Maanvi?
Why?
Dil, samhal jaa zara, phir mohobath karney chalaa hai tu'
Dil, vahi ruk zaraa, phir mohobath karney chala hai tu'
Maanvi was in tears. She was so upset. As much as she was trying to run away from them, Swamini Bua had brought those dreadful thoughts back to her. She ran into her room and went straight into the bathroom to wash her face. As soon as she came out, Maanvi noticed a note pinned on to the photo of her and Jeevika she had hung in her room. This note was written on more fancy kind of paper.
...but it wasn't Jeevika's handwriting.
