Chapter 1

It had been a week since Ratan and Diya had started acting as lovers. Their plan of catching the enemy red-handed with this act was a good one, as there had been another attack on Daata hukum on the 2nd day after their love confession. But unfortunately the culprit got away. So now they have to think of another attack for the enemy, one more 'Vaar' for their 'Dushman'.

This upset Diya as she had once again failed to catch the attacker of Daata hukum. That is when she thought of declaring their engagement. So she convinced Ratan sa to make an official announcement of their engagement in front of the family and also declare that he was gonna write all his property on her name, so that she becomes the target of enemy instead of Daata hukum. She was right in this plan, because the attacks shifted on her since the announcement. But still she was nowhere near catching the culprit. And it made her a bit tensed because the time limit of 15 days is getting closer. Only one thing had turned out to be good in all this, in fact best. Ratan and Diya had become best of friends. Their silly fights, friendly banters, his immature pompous nature, her seriousness, and most importantly their care for each other had bonded them in a friendship of a lifetime. A friendship in which their age difference and their starkingly opposite nature will not gonna matter. A friendship which they both knew will always remain even if Diya leaves the Mahal after finishing her duty.

Another reason for her tensed state was Abhay, her ex-fiance, the arrival of whom had distracted Diya a bit. Abhay sa had been waiting for Diya to return to him once her duty gets finished and had been in love with her since past 12 years. And ever since he had returned in her life, Diya was noticing that his love has not changed, that he still understands her the way he used to 12 years ago and that he was still holding one end of the thread of relation she had left 12 years ago. But this knowledge made Diya a bit uncomfortable, confused, and guilty. Guilty because as of now Abhay doesn't know about her and Ratan sa's engagement, but when he gets to know it she wouldn't be able to tell Abhay sa that she is just acting to be in love with Ratan sa, and will ultimately hurt him. Uncomfortable because she had left their relation behind 12 years ago and didn't allow herself to feel anything for him in these years. That is one of the reasons, apart from her commitment to duty, that she hadn't opened even a single one of his letters that he had sent her in all these years. And finally confused because she knew that she likes and respects Abhay sa, but she also feels a bit awkward in his presence sometimes. May be somewhere deep down, she also knows that her feelings for Abhay sa will not go beyond respect.

Ratan on the other hand was thankful to Abhay for saving Diya from the falling chandelier. At first he was a bit uncomfortable watching Abhay so close to Mr. India. But after watching him caring for her and bandaging her injured hand so carefully and staring at her lovingly, Ratan felt happy for his best friend. And once he got to know from Yash banna that Abhay was still waiting for Diya to return to him, he felt guilty of bonding her to her duty and decided to talk to Diya about this. He had tried convincing Diya about leaving her duty and leading on her life with Abhay.

* Flashback *

Mr. India aapko nahi lagta ki aapko Abhay sa ka 12 saal ka vanvaas ab khatam kar dena chahiye?', Ratan said with a teasing smile.

'Matlab?', Diya asked raising an eyebrow.

'Oh come on Mr. India, matlab aap bhi janti hai! Mujhe lagta hai ki aapko Abhay sa ke sath apni life aage badhani chahiye', Ratan replied.

'Daata hukum, hum aapke..', she tried to say but

'Please Diya', he cut her off 'I know aapke liye aapki jimmedari nibhana important hai, but uske liye aap apni life ko nazarandaz to nahi kar sakti na. Aapki apni life aur apne dreams ke taraf bhi to ek jimmedari hai na... Aap meri best friend hai, aur main itna selfish nahi hu ki aapko aapki khushiyon se dur rakhu. Abhay ek bohot acche insaan hai, aur wo pichle 12 saalon aapka intezaar kar rahe hai... aur ab waqt aa gaya hai ki aap ye pehredaari chhod ke unke sath apni zindagi ki shuruat kare', he said with a finality.

'Bol liya aapne? Ab hum kuch kahe?', she asked politely and he nodded a bit. Ratan sa, humne baabji sa se wada kiya tha ki hum aapke upar kabhi koi aanch nahi aane denge. Isliye, humare liye aapke dushman ko benaqaab karna behadd jaruri hai. Aap humare best friend hai, aur isiliye aap hi samajh sakte hai, ki humare liye apna kartavya pura karna kya maayne rakhta hai... aur agar hum ab chale gaye aapke dushman ko pakde bina, to humari ye 12 saalon ki mehnat to bekaar ho jayegi na, kya aap yahi chahte hai?', Diya asked him and he looked at her a little stunned at the truth of her statement.

'Nahi... nahi Mr. India, main aisa bilkul nahi chahta ki aapke life ke 12 saal aise hi waste ho jaye. Main to bas aapko khush dekhna chahta hu', he said earnestly looking into her eyes.

Ok Daata hukum, hum aapse promise karte hai ki hum is bare me jarur sochenge. Aur ek baar aapke dushman ko pakad le, uske baad hum apne dreams bhi jarur follow karenge. But aapko bhi promise karna hoga, ki jab tak humara kartavya pura nahi ho jata, aap hume apna kaam karne se nahi rokenge. Waada?', she asked and forwarded a hand asking for a promise.

'Waada. Daata hukum promise', Ratan replied giving his hand in hers as a promise. She smiled and he too.

*Flashback ends*

Although Ratan himself had advised Diya to follow her dreams and start a life with Abhay, he started getting jealous watching him with her. Abhay had come to Surajgadh for his business work and had been staying in Kesar Hotel. And in the past week, Ratan had been feeling jealous of the way Diya behaved around Abhay. The same Diya whom he had once taunted that she cannot even blush or get shy like a normal girl, was actually behaving just like a normal girl. And he was jealous because she was behaving like this around Abhay and not him. The way Abhay flirts with her, and the way she blushes, was making him burn. But he couldn't understand why he was feeling jealous.

**Present**

Ratan sat on the swing waiting for Diya to get ready and trying to figure out the confusing emotion in his head. Mujhe kyun farak pad raha hai? Wo Mr. India ka ex-fiance hai, Mr. India uske sath jaise chahe vaise behave kare, main kyu itna soch raha hu?

'Daata hukum', Diya called him but he didn't respond. She walked over to him but he didn't realize she was standing beside him.

'Daata hukum', she called once again and put her hand on his shoulder.

'Huhh..', he jerked awake from his reverie.

'Kya hua Ratan sa? Koi pareshani hai?', Diya asked looking concerned.

'Nahi, kuch nahi', he replied with a smile.

'To fir chaliye, breakfast ke liye niche sab wait kar rahe honge. Fir hume hotel ki meeting ke liye bhi jana hai Daata hukum', she said and started to leave, but he held her wrist and she stopped.

'Mr. India', he said and she looked at him. 'Aaj hume uss desert wale chhote mandir me jane ka bohot mann kar raha hai jaha hum babasa hukum ke saath jaya karte the. Kya hum meeting se pehle waha ja sakte hai?', he asked and she was surprised.

'Par aapka breakfast?', she asked.

'Breakfast baad me kar lenge', he said and she nodded. Ratan smiled at her and got up.

'Uhh... Daata hukum?', Diya asked.

'Haan?'

'Aap humara haath chodenge?', she asked and he looked at his hand that was still holding her wrist. He was surprised at the fact that he didn't realize it and it didn't feel odd at all. But he recovered from the surprise and retaliated smartly.

'Nahi... Bilkul nahi. Chhodne ke liye thodi pakda hai aapka haath', he said teasing and she was a bit stunned. 'Ab baki sabko bhi to pata chale, Daata hukum apni Diya se kitna pyaar karte hai', he winked at her and she shrugged.

'Daata hukum aap bhi na! Ab chale?', she asked. Ratan nodded and they went out of the room hand in hand. And Ratan felt a warmth and sense of contentment, he was a stranger to till now.

In the hallway, Ratan and Diya didn't stop for breakfast and continued to walk out of the house. Everyone saw them and were surprised that Daata hukum was heading out without having breakfast.

'Daata hukum', Choti Thakrani sa stopped him. 'Itni jaldi jaldi me kaha ja rahe se aap, nashta bhi ko ni kiya?', she asked in a motherly manner.

'Kakima sa hum wo Registaan wale chhote mandir ja rahe hai. Nashta main vapas aakar hotel me kar lunga. Abhi chalte hai kakima sa der ho rahi hai', Ratan replied and walked out of the house with Diya.
