Episode-188

Maaa...

The deep silence of the night is broken by his shrill cry. The floodgates had opened again and Arnav is purging the haunted memories out dissolved in tears of rancor and sadness in equal manner. A raging inferno impending to demolish everything in it's wake. The  heart what was suppressed with mirth  some while ago now got submerged in despair like the moon  gets veiled by dense swaths of dark clouds. Were they mere pawn at the hands of the omnipotent, a master albeit eccentric designer who had a twisted, warped sense of humor! God's power can surmount any evil. But why the capricious destiny again and again is throwing them in the vortex of turbulence!

Anajli is shocked to see the doctor report and Arnav is tensed, to see her perplexity. Anjali hugs him, she can't believe herself. She tells him that he is going to be an uncle. How Anjali reacted at the beginning, I thought she got some rare disease. But why she was shocked, she wasn't able to conceive or what? She can't believe that finally her dreams fulfilled. She had been waiting for so long to hear this news. When she sees Arnav is not showing any excitement she asks him, why he is not saying anything. How can he utter any words now, he came here to reveal the truth of her nefarious husband. Now how can he tell her the blunt truth, where she is carrying the child of that swindler? He is about to say something when Shyam enters the room. Shyam is in embroilment. He thought Arnav had revealed everything to Anjali. Both Arnav and Shyam look at each other with darting eyes. Anjali comes towards Shyam and starts to say that she has been worshiping DM devotedly for so long and now today she can't believe herself to hear the news. Shyam becomes incredulous whether Anjali came to know his secret! When he tries to assuage her, she gives him the news of her pregnancy. She hugs him and Shyam smiles at Arnav devilishly. Anjali is scrumptious to share the happiest moment with the most important persons of her life. She brings Arnav near Shyam and says,

Hume sabse zada pyaar karniwali hamari pati ...my husband who loves me most...she cares shyam lovingly and resumes,

aur Humarai haar saans mei jaan denewali hamari yeh bhai...and my brother who can die for me any moment.

Aur ab ek nanhasa taufa, jo royega, khilkhilayega aur hume bulayega maa.

And a baby, who will cry, giggle and call me maaa

Arnav eyes get teary to hear his di's delight and Shyam's deception. Anjali gets surprised to see tears in his eyes. She asks him, are the tears for her happiness or for the sorrow to share her love with the little one. Anjali assures him that he will remain her chotey forever. She leans her head on his shoulder. Shyam is giving him a derisive smirk. Arnav holds Anajli as if whatever shyam does, he is here with her to protect his di. Anjali again goes to shyam and hugs him and Shyam again gives Arnav a snide smile. Arnav can't bear his grimace, so he leaves them alone.

How dare is Shyam that living in Arnav's parapet, leading a profuse life on Arnav's money, he is teasing Arnav? Arnav is also in a nonplus situation. How that devil entrenched Anjali that it's not easy to get her out from her delusional world.

In the inky night a distraught man is fluttering with his 4 wheeler. The expedition of his car is depicting the state of his clamarous heart. Arnav is driving insanely. Whenever he is vulnerable he drives to release his stress. But today he is invincible, nothing can soothes his tumultuous heart.  After a while he screeches the car to a halt. His grip tightens on the steering wheel. His jaw clenches in anger. lost in reminisces gradually all feelings of anger, rancor, anxiety spurts out from his mind.

 you are going to be an uncle.

She thinks her husband loves her immensely. But he only knows the ugly face of shyam. His mocking smile pulsates his anger more. A while ago he challenged him that his sister will not gonna mistrust the person whom she loves so much. He gets down from the car, starts to pace back and forth in convulsion. Shyam's sweet demeanor to anjali and  Khushi's words to leave Anjali, all are reverberating in his mind.

Khushi has become my everything, my life, my craziness, my madness.

Shyam's words are creating tremor in his heart. Shyam and Khushi's hug, his di's countenance, Khushi is telling Shyam to leave Anjali, all are creating tumult in his already blatant heart. He gets scared in anticipation to lose his di. With the ghost of scorching pain gnawing at his heart, he recalls the dreadful night of his di's maariage and his parent's death. The haunted night that remained imprinted in his mind and heart for eons and with heart rending, soul searing clarity.

Maaa!!!!

The crescendo of his shrill scream pierces the silence of the murky sky. His bereaved heart and his kaput soul bleed with scorching pain. And with a suddenness, a deluge of bittersweet memories of Khushi, what he has quite deliberately suppressed and relegated to the confines of his subconscious mind comes gushing out. Shyam's subreption already made Khushi a characterless home wrecker to him. is he hating himself to love such an immoral girl! Again anjali's happiness, shyam's deception, Khushi's betrayal, avalanche of chaotic thought start to create havoc in his heart and mind. He slides down on the ground, rests his head on his hand. He is crying like a helpless man who is whirling in the vortex of conflicting thoughts. The fate had brought him in the middle of the quagmire of the situation that he has become completely petrified. He gradually lifts his head up, vendetta is spurting out from his flagrant eyes.

When Shyam was canoodling Anjali, their whole family storms in their room. Their happiness knows no bound today. All are congratulating them and getting elated to welcome the new member of their family. Akash gets worried to see Anjali's bandage, but NK aberate him. Gupta family also comes there to congratulate Anjali, though they are dithering for shyam. Bua reluctantly wishes Shyam good luck. Nani says that Payal's entry is really auspicious for them. Mami as usual doesn't like Payal's praise. She says Anjali that she doesn't want to get old by being a grandma so soon. Shyam comes to Anjali and says everybody that let the little princess comes to their life first. Nk gets happy to hear about the baby girl. Shyam says that he knows very well that they certainly will have a baby girl just like Anjali, who will complete their family. He knows very well how to inveigle Anjali and her naive family with his cagey words. Arnav comes there right then. He clenches his fist to hear Shyam's fallacy. Khushi also cogitates to hear this, cause she knows Shyam's intention very well. Clever Shyam looks at Khushi to see Arnav. Arnav looks at Khushi loathsomely. He thinks Khushi is upset to see Shyam with Anjali. I wish if he would know that she is in embroilment for the same reason of him. A frisson of rage goes through his vein.  Nk reminds Khushi that she is supposed to tell something to Arnav. khushi replies that she doesn't need to say anything now. She thinks herself that as Anjali is pregnant; she shouldn't tell the secret of Shyam, the things will get better by now. So there is no point to bring this issue. She looks at Arnav with intricate mix of emotions, but Arnav is now hating her so much that doesn't even look at her.

Really it's unbearable for me to see hate for Khushi in Arnav's eyes.

The ambiance gets rife with felicity again. All are finally gathers for the wedding. Anjali and nani get emotional to see Akash as a groom. Mami is crying, cause to welcome her DIL, she has to bid bye bye to her son.  Khushi brings Payal to the marriage hall. All get happy to see the beautiful bride. Amma gets so emotional, can't resist herself to come forward to her loving daughter.. She also accompanies Khushi to bring Payal. Whereas Khushi's eyes are searching for Arnav. It was such a good day for her. Arnav looked at her lovingly, brought truck full of leaf, became a waiter, selected a beautiful saree for her, gave her bindi and wished to talk to her. wasn't she expecting some kind of confession from him? But all of a sudden why he is playing hide and seek with her?

Akash and Payal both are ready with the jaimala. But Akash is not putting it on  Payal, as Arnav is not there. NK teases him that he is the one who will put the garland, not Arnav.. But akash will not do any rituals without his bhai. How sweet! Nani also banters him that  akash will not do anything without his brother, not even will marry. They all look for Arnav. nobody knows that he is getting prepared for his own jaimala.
