Rishi smirks seeing an angry Lakshmi.

Lakshmi came back with a paper bag.

Rishi: ye kya hai?

Lakshmi: aapki Dress Mr. Oberoi.

Rishi: meri? Tumne kharidi?

Lakshmi: haan woh apni dress lene gai thi but deepti aunty ne bhejwa di so... Tumhare liye le li maine.

Rishi: kyu hum aapke hai kon? Mere liye kyu dress li?

Lakshmi: kyuki....

Rishi: kyuki..

Lakshmi : Kyu ki I know tum kitne bade dramebaaz ho mujhe laga tha aisa kuch karo ge so it's called advance planning Mr. Oberoi..

Rishi: oh really.. Tab to fir mujhe ana padega lao do ye me abhi ready hoke aya..

Rishi took his clothes and intentionally again stumbled upon the carpet and fell.

Rishi: oucchhh oh nooo.

Lakshmi: kya kya hua Rishi tum... Dhyaan se nahi ja sakte the haan khyaal nahi rakhte apnaa mere hote hue mere jaane ke baad kaise rakhoge...

And they both had an eyelock..

DuR SE TOH HOGA NAHI THODA TOH KAARIB AAIYE,
OHH LAKHO MILE KOI BHI NA TUMSA MILA, OHH MERA YE DIL TERI ORE CHALTA GAYA NA RUKA MERE YAARAA.

Plays in background.

Lakshmi: umm. Mein first aid box leke aati hoon..

Rishi: okay..

Lakshmi came back and saw a groaning Rishi.

Rishi: yaaar bohot dard ho raha hai kitna man tha mera tumhaari apni best friend ki engagement pe jaane ka tumhare aur Vihaan ke saath enjoy karne ka but kismat Lakshmi kismat ka kya kahe koi..

Lakshmi: Toh koi baat nahi hum cancel kardete hai tumhare thik hone ke baad rakhlenge..

Rishi happily: sachh.... Um mera... Mera matlb hai such talks are of no use...aaj engagement hai last moment pe cancel nahi ho sakti..

Lakshmi: Rishi please be serious. Tum kyu meri mushkil badha rahe ho..

Rishi: matlab me konsi mushkil badha raha ho come on Lakshmi kya keh rahi hoo.

Lakshmi: tumhe left paer me sprain hua tha ab right paer pakad kar ro rahe ho... Kyu?

Rishi: Aree insaan bhool jata hai chot lagi thi na mujhe toh ye lo left paer pe spray laga deta hoon..

Lakshmi: tum jaante ho mene kya pucha hai. Tum kyu nahi ana chahte meri engagement me? tum jo chahte the wohi hua na toh kyu?

Rishi: mujhe nahi pata Lakshmi but nahi ana chahta me

He moved away.

Lakshmi held him and this time she was close to him so close that she can feel his breath . She held his shirt and clenched her fists.

Lakshmi: aaj nahi Rishi aaj tumhe sab clear Karna padega me... Thak gayi hoon.. Har baar jab me move on Karna chahti ho tum kyu mujhe second thoughts dene pe majboor karte ho kyu mere liye ek naya sawaal leke ajate ho..

Rishi was shocked with this intensity of Lakshmi . But at the same time he could see a part of broken Lakshmi through her red teary eyes.

Rishi:kyuki mujhe sab wapis yaad ayega tumhe aur Vihaan ko ek saath dekh kar..

Lakshmi knitted her eyebrows.

Rishi: mujhe yaad ayega ki kaise mene tumhe sirf apne matlab ke liye use kiya, hurt kiyaa...

Lakshmi left him and laughed: so mein firse galat thi tum meri engagement isliye nahi attend Karna chahte kyuki tum selfish ho Rishi Oberoi tumhe koi fiqr nahi ki mere dil pe kya guzregi but tumhe sirf apna guilt apni ego apni mistakes dikhai deti hain. U know what tumhare paas shayad Dil kabhi tha hi nahi aur me bewakoof thi jo itna sab kuch keh diya.. The thing is tumhe ana hai toh aao warna just to whatever you feel like. I am done with u and everyone else..

She left Rishi's room.

After an hour

Ayush: bhabhi aap ready hain?

Lakshmi: haan.

Ayush: chale fir neeche sab aapka wait kar rahe hain.

Lakshmi went down. She looked like a  queen in her gown. And to her surprise she saw Rishi was ready waiting for her too.

She smiled seeing him. And Rishi felt his eyes getting watery he couldn't understand why but immediately wiped away his tears without anyone noticing it.

Rishi: u look... Beautiful... In fact u look so beautiful that we may need a new word to describe your beauty.

Lakshmi smiled: u look handsome too..

Neelam was not very happy about the fact that Lakshmi didn't wear her gift and the fact that Lakshmi  was now a bit Biased for Deepti

Vir: meri bacchi ko kisi ki bhi nazar na lage..

Dadi: ekdam pari lag rahi hai jaise Deepti kehti hai..

Neelam: mummy ji woh usse bhi behtar lag rahi hai ... deepti ji ke words ke alawa bhi toh words hai har waqt singhania's ka naam lena zaruri hai.

Lakshmi: umm thank you aunty ji

Neelam realising she praises Lakshmi: koi baat nahi ab chale..

Ahana: toh me aur ayush, shalu aur bani ko leke  sidha waha pohoch jayege . Mama mami aur Dadi aaplog jao aur Rishi bhai Lakshmi bhabhi ko leke jayenge okay..
. Everyone:  okay..

Lakshmi sat on the front seat.
Lakshmi: chalo rishi.
Rishi was staring at her.
Lakshmi: Rishi? .. She patted on his shoulder..

Rishi: yaa lets... Let's goo ek min ruko..

Lakshmi: what now?

Rishi: ek min me aya kuch bhool gaya hoon..

Lakshmi:  hum late hojayenge Rishi please jaldi karo

Rishi came back running after a few minutes.

Lakshmi was angry now she was trying to escape this engagement but now as she had somehow convinced herself she didn't want to be so late again that her mind changes..

Lakshmi: kya bhool gaye the?

Rishi took out the kajal : yeh.
He applied kajal behind Lakshmi's ear.
Rishi: ab kisi ki buri nazar nahi lagegi.
Lakshmi had tears: I am sorry Rishi mene jo bhi kaha.
Rishi: Aree ro mat makeup kharab hojayega and i know me bohot irritating banda hoon isi wajah se tumse daant kha leta hoon . I don't mind getting scolded when u scold me..... Ab chale
He wiped her tears carefully and gestured her to smile.

Lakshmi nodded in yes.
