Continues from the previous part...

After a heated argument with Anubhav, Haseena went to kitchen for water. She was coming towards the room when she heard something falling sound behind her, she turned but there was nothing.

"Apne us 6 feet 1 inch pati ke saath rah kar hum bhi pagal ho jayenge...!" She slaps her forehead.

"Haseena...!" A husky voice called her, sending chills to her spine.

"K..kaun..?" She asked without turning towards the sound.

"Tak..tak...tak..!" Someone walked to her and suddenly she felt a cold wind touched her body.

"Anu chahiye tumhe...?" Someone whispered against her ear.

"An.....(her words choked as she see a shadow behind her through the window mirror) "Ssshh (she feels like someone pressed their finger on her lips)...bolna mana hai...!"

"Tu..Ssshhh...(the shadow shushed her) bola na bolna mana hai.."

Haseena closes her eyes and starts chatting the mantras and within few minutes she feels like the black aura faded away. She quickly opens her eyes and runs towards her room.

Anubhav's Room.

"Hey Ganga maiyan raksha karan hamari...!" She closed her eyes and prayed but then she felt someone standing next to him. She opens her eyes and is shocked to see the same shadow which comes closer to her and then vanishes.

A Few minutes later...

"Tum abhi tak gayi nhi hamare kamare se...?" Anubhav angrily asked Haseena, who is combing her long hair with a smile on her beautiful face. "Hum aapko dikh rahe hai yani hum nhi gaye hamare room se...!" She said  sweetly with a smile. Anubhav stares her suspiciously as her tone is very sweet.

"Tum itni raat gaye yeh kar kya rahi ho?" He asked questionably. "Baalon ko kanghi kar rahe hai...woh hume khule baalon mein rehna bahot pasand hai isliye...!" She answered with a smile.

"Whatever...tum jao yahan se aur samane wale room mein so jao kyunki yahan hum soyenge...!" He lay down beside Arnav. "Hum chaaro ke saath so sakte hai isliye hum yahin soyenge...!" She said and went to them.

"Good night Anu...!" She muttered under her breath with a smile.

Two weeks later....

Two weeks pass normally, these days Haseena's bond with Anika and Arnav is getting stronger, Haseena has started treating them like her own child while Anubhav is still avoiding Haseena but maa is noticing Haseena's changed behavior.

"Ji...aap kaun?  Maa asked a middle aged man who is standing on the door.  " Hum Haseena ke Bau ji hai samdhan ji...!" The man introduced himself with a smile.

"Haseena ke bau ji...aaiye aaiye andar aaiye...!" Maa welcomed him with a smile. "Hamari beti kidhar hai?" He asked. "Aap baithiye hum bulate hai..!" Maa said pointing at the sofa. He hummed and sat on the sofa, scanning the house.

"Ramesh jakar Haseena ko bula lao..!" Maa orders to a house helper. "Hum aa gaye maa...!" Haseena said, getting down by the stairs. Maa looked at her and gets shocked to see her.  Haseena is dressed in a red colored saree with a full sleeves blouse while her hair is fluttering in the wind as she walks in a classy style.

"Haseena...!" Her father calls out to her, stretching out his arms for a hug. Haseena looks at him confused but soon she smiles and runs to hug him but ehe stops a step away from him.

"Kya hua Guddo..?" He asked worriedly. "Kuch nhi bau ji..aap baithiye na thak gaye honge itni door se aane par...!" She said with a smile, gazing at her father's locket, which noticed by maa and her bau ji.

"Haseena beta tum jao toh apne Bau ji ke liye apne haathon se achha sa chai lekar aao...bade din ho gaye hai...!" Her Bau ji said with a smile. She smiles and went to the kitchen.

"Bura mat manana behan ji par yeh hamari Haseena nhi hai...!" Bau ji said plainly. "Matlab?" Maa asked. "Shakal aur shareer se bhale hi hamari beti ho par iski baatein aur muskaan hamari Guddo ki nhi hai...woh hume dekhte hi gale laga leti thi aur yeh laal rang...use toh pasand hi nhi hai gehre rang ke kapde..aur hamari Guddo ko khana banana bhi nhi aata phir bhi woh hamare kehne par chai banane chali gayi...!" Bau ji said suspiciously.

"Nhi bhai sahab aisa nhi ho sakta...shaadi ke teesre hi din usne humse kaha tha ki hum use khana banane ki permission de de aur banati bhi bahot achha hai...!" Maa said with confusion.

"Nhi behan ji aisa ho hi nhi sakta...bachapan mein ek baar galti se Guddo ka haath jal gaya tha tab se humne hi use mana kar diya the rasoi mein jaane se aur use kabhi shauk bhi nhi tha...pakka kuch gadbad hai...!"

"Waise gadbad toh hume bhi lag rahi hai kuch...!" Maa said hesitantly. "Kaisi gadbad?" He asked. "Haseena ne jo saree pehni hai woh Anjali yani uski (pointing at the picture) hai jo ab is duniya mein nhi hai aur kuch dino se Haseena uski tarah hi vyvhar bhi kar rahi hai...!" Maa said worriedly.

"Aapka matlab hai Anjali ki aatma (maa nodded) aisa nhi ho sakta humne uski surksha ke liye usko ek kawach pehna rakha hai...!"

"Woh om..jo usne do hafte pehle hi nikal diya tha..!" Maa asked, which shocked him. "Kyaa..??"

"Kya hua Bau ji? " Haseena asked coming to them with two cups tea. "Kuch nhi Guddo..tum baitho hamare paas...!"

"Nhi Bau ji hume Anika Arnav ke ke liye lunch banana hai dono school se aate hi honge...!" She said with a smile. "Par beti apne Bau ji se mil toh lo achhe se...!" Maa tries to convince her.

"Bau ji abhi yahin hai na, hum aaram se mil lenge aur Bau ji bina apne damad ji se mile jana mat...!" She smirks dangerously at last word. "Bilkul...!" Bau ji smiled as he understood her intention.

Story paused...

"Oh teri...Haseena possessed ho chuki hai..!" Shruti said worriedly.

"Ab kya hoga aur agar us Anjali ki bacchi ne kuch aisa kiya jiski wajah se Anubhav ne Haseena ko galat samjh liya toh...!" Kusum said in tensed voice.

"Par Haseena possessed huyi kab?" Ambi asked innocently.

"Duffer...yaad hai na jab Haseena ne ek shadow ko apne paas aakar gayab hote huye feel kiya tha tab woh shadow gayab nhi uske andar chali gyi thi...!" Shruti answered.

"Par woh kawach...woh kaise nikala uske haath se?" Ambi asked.

"Tune aaj khane mein kya khaya tha Ambi jo tu aaj question puchhe ja rahi hai..?" Kusum asked irritatedly.

"Hostel ka khana  aur kya...!" Ambi replied innocently.

"Kusum Tu chhod ise aur story padh...!" Shruti said, ignoring Ambi.

Kusum hummed and starts reading..

Story Continue..

"Aap yahan hamare ghar mein kya kar rahe hai...!" Anubhav said angrily as he see Haseena's father with his family. "Anu izzat se baat karo mehmaan hai hamare...!"  Maa said sternly. "Izzat aur inhe...raas nhi aayega maa..!" He taunted Bau ji.

"Tameez se baat kariye, bau ji hai hamare...!" Haseena said angrily. "Achha...toh tameez se hi kah rahe hai apne bau ji se kahiye ki aapko lekar nikal jaye yahan se...!" Anubhav said angrily. "Damad babu aap kaahe itne gussa ho rahe hai....mana hamara tareeka galat tha par vyah toh ho gya hai aapka hamari Guddo ke saath toh thoda prem se baat kariye...!"

"Hume nhi karna isliye apni beti ko lijiye aur nikal jaiye yahan se...!" Anubhav said rudely. Haseena smirk, looking at her Bau ji who is noticing everything.

"Arey damad babu aise thodi hota hai...hamari.Guddo patni hai  aapki isliye ab toh yeh is ghar se nhi jayegi aur rahi baat hamari toh hum chale jaate hai...!" He said with a smile. "Nhi bhai sahab aap iski baaton ko chhodiye...(cuts off by Bau ji) Nhi behan ji..waise bhi damad Narayan roop hota hai use naraz karna theek nhi...hum chalte hai abhi...!" He said calmly and then went out from the house not before looking at Haseena.

"Anu yeh sanskaar diye hai humne tumhe jo apne sasur se aise baat kar rahe the...!" Maa scolded him. "Hamara koi rishta nhi hai is ladki aur iske gharwaalon se...!" He said, shooting angry glare at Haseena through his eyes. "Anu...chhod tujhse kuch kehna hi bekar hai...!" Maa said helplessly and went to her room. "Aapko kuch chahiye hoga toh bata dena hum jara baccho ke paas ja rahe hai..!" Haseena saiid with a smile.

"Ek minute...yeh toh (he looks at her saree) aapki himmat kaise  huyi Anjali ki almaari ko haath lagane ki...(he grabs her by shoulders tightly) tum samjhti kya ho khud ko...! He angrily shouted on her.

"Aapki wife...aur kya..!" She said calmly. "Don't....(before he could finish his sentence, she pressed her lips on his) badtameez ladki...(he pushed her and raised his hand to slap her but stopped on seeing her teary eyes).

"Galti khud ki ab ro bhi khud rahi ho...!" He taunted her with anger. "Apne husband ko kiss karna galti thodi hoti hai...!" She said innocently. "Ajeeb ho tum...!" He left from there.

She smirk, wiping her tears. "Bahot ajeeb hai hum Anubhav Singh...sorry Mr. Husband bas tum wait karo kyunki ab tumhe tumhari galtiyon ki saza dene ka time aa gaya hai...!" She smiled dangerously.

Story paused...

"Kusum mera ghar ghum raha hai....!" Ambi said holding her head between her palms.

"Woh sar hota hai...!" Shruti corrected her.

"Par is story ko sun kar mera sar kya yeh pura ghar ghum raha hai...!" Ambi said with confusion.

"Waise sar toh mera bhi ghum raha hai...!" Shruti said.

"Same to same mera bhi...!" Kusum said gloomily.

"Wahi toh...agar Anjali ki aatma Haseena ke andar hai toh woh Anubhav ko kaun si galtiyon ki saza dene ki baat kar rahi hai aur agar nhi hai toh Haseena yeh natak kyun kar rahi hai...!" Ambi spilled out her questions to calm her mind.

"Aur Anjali ke naam se hi kyun aur woh Bau ji itni asni se kaise chale gye...?" Shruti added her question.

"Aur agar yeh sab pehle se plan tha toh Haseena do hafte shant kyun rahi aur use Anjali kyun dikhai di aur woh sab...nhi kuch aisa hai jo hamari aankhon ke saamne hokar bhi hume nhi dikh raha hai...!" Kusum said thinking something.

"Woh kya hai yeh toh ab story continue karne par hi pata chalega...!" Shruti said.

"Yeh writer khud toh hai badi wali pagal aur ab hume bhi dheere dheere bana rahi hai...!" Ambi said grumpily.

"Waise tujhe banane ki zaroorat nhi hai kyunki tu hai...!" Shruti said to tease her.

"Shut up...!"

"Dono ka ho  gya toh story continue karu..!" Kusum said irritatedly.

"Jaldi..." The duo said unison. Kusum smiles and turns the next page...
