Next Morning.

Dadi,Harsh and Renuka will be leaving tonight for Jaipur.

They have a family wedding to attend. Dadi was okay with SanDhir not attending the wedding because Sanyukta's health and well being is more important.

Randhir cancelled their tickets.

It was a pleasant morning where Renuka and Sanyukta prepared breakfast for everyone.

Renuka looked at Sanyukta and smiled.

Sanyukta's was glowing in happiness.

"So...how is mommy feeling?" Renuka asked breaking Sanyukta's trance.

"I can't describe it Mummyji" "This feeling is just so beautiful" "A new life is residing me..." "My baby" "I don't know..how to react" "I am very happy...." Sanyukta said

"I can totally understand that Sanyukta"

"Feeling of soon to be mother is something no woman can describe" "It has to be felt...may be words are not enough to describe this feeling" Renuka said

"Tell me something about your time" "Matlab jab aap Maa banane wali thi tab..." Sanyukta asked

"Your husband...when he was in my womb...he has trouble me a lot"

"Itna pareshaan kiya hai Randhir ne pucho mat"

Renuka laughed

"Randhir was under weight when he was born"

"We had to take a lot care of him"

"For first 6 months it was very tough for me and Harsh"

"Randhir ko infection lag jata tha..." "Bohot rota tha, bimaar rehta tha" "Phir maine mandatory mangi uske liye..."

"Phir dhere dhere sab thik hogaya..." "Aur phir mannat puri karne hum Ajmer Sharif gaye, Randhir ko leke" "Uske baad sab thik hogaya..." "Aab dekho...itna bada hogaya ki khud Papa banane wala hai" Renuka said

"Renuka bahu..." Dadi called Renuka

"Aayi Maaji..." Renuka replied

"Chalo...lets go and served breakfast to them" Renuka said.

Renuka and Sanyukta served breakfast to everyone.

Sanyukta was standing near Randhir.

Randhir looked up at her and signalled her to sit.

Sanyukta nodded in NO.

"Sanyukta bahu...tum bhi baitho beta" Dadi said.

Everyone was shocked to hear that.

"Baitho Sanyukta bahu..." dadi said

"Dadi par..." "Randhir sach keh raha tha..." "Tum humare parivaar ka hissa ho...toh humare saath hi baith ke khana khaogi.." "Humare baad nahi..." Dadi said.

Sanyukta smiled in happiness.

She took a seat beside Randhir.

Shekhawats had a pleasant time.

Later in afternoon.

"I wish...hum bhi Jaipur jate" Sanyukta said

"You want to travel in this condition" "No Sanyukta no need.."

"Maa Papa will attend the wedding" Randhir said

"This was the first function in Shekhawat family after our marriage" "I haven't met any of your cousins properly"

"I thought this function will be the best occasion to meet them" Sanyukta said

"You can meet them afterwards okay?" "We are not going that's final..." Randhir said

"Thik hai..." She said looking down

"You really want to go..." Randhir asked her

"It's okay..." She said

"No tell me...you really want us to go..." He said.

Sanyukta looked down. Her eyes were moist.

"Hey what happened?" Randhir came to her.

"Sanyukta..." He cupped her face.

"Kya hua" He asked softly.

"Hume..hume aapne ghar jana hai" "Hume Maa Papa ki bohot yaad aati hai" "Hume unke saath time spent nahi kar paye" She said.

Randhir took her into a warm hug.

"Toh mujse kehti na..." "Chalo thik hai...hum jayenge Jaipur..." "You spend time with Maa and Papa..okay" He said.

She hugged him back.

Randhir booked their air tickets.

They will be leaving for Jaipur after two days.

They will first attend the wedding and then Sanyukta will spent some days with her parents.

"Par Bahu ko iss halat main kyu lejane ki zid kar rahe ho Randhir" Dadi said

"Dadi...woh sabse milna chahti hai" "Aur function attend karne ke baad...woh kuch din aapne ghar rehna chahti hai" Randhir said

"Itni pareshaani kyu uthani hai bahu ko"

"Yeh wakt uske aaram karne ka hai" "Aabhi ek mahina bhi pura nahi hua...kuch galat hogaya toh" Dadi said

"Kya galat hoga Dadi?"

"Aap kehna kya chahti hai"

"Sanyukta aapne ghar main safe nahi rahegi"

"Uske Maa Papa ke saath safe nahi rahegi...yeh kehna chahti hai aap" Randhir's voice was loud.

"Maine aaisa nahi kaha hai Randhir" Dadi said

"Aapke kehne ka wahi matlab tha" "Come on Dadi...Sanyukta unki beti hai" "Aur humare baby pe unka utna hi haq hai jitna aapka ya mere Maa Papa ka hai"

"Unki beti hai woh...kitna khayal rakhenge uska iss halat main woh log"

"Humari shaadi ko 10 mahine ho chuke hai..."

"Ek baar bhi Sanyukta aapne ghar rehne nahi gayi..."

"Aabhi uski chutiyaan chal rahi hai toh kyu nahi jaye woh" Randhir said

"Main kuch nahi janti Randhir" "Aaise halat main bahu se safar karvana thik nahi"

"Muje mere pota, iss khandan ka waris ko koi bhi takleef nahi honi chaiye" Dadi said

"Kya?" "Kya kaha aapne" "Pota...waris..." "Aapse kisne kaha ki beta hi hoga" Randhir said

"Isme kehna kya hai....beta hi chaiye..." "Vansh ko aage kon badhayega" "Khandan ka waris toh beta hi hota hai na" "Aur Sanyukta ko bhi yeh baat pata hai" "Maine usse kaha hai...beta hi hona chaiye" Dadi said

"Aur aagar beti hui toh?" "Toh kya karengi aap" Randhir said.

Dadi looked away from him.

"Wow...kya soch hai aapki Dadi" "Kis zamaane main rehti hai aap" "Beta,beti yeh sab kya hai..." "Pota, waris...yeh sab" "Yeh sab maine aapse expect nahi kiya tha" Randhir said

"Ek baat sab sun lijiye..."

"Sanyukta pe koi dabav, koi pressure nahi karega bete ke liye" "Humare liye humara baby zyada important hai" "Phir chahe woh beta ho ya beti" "Uski health aur safety se zyada mere liye kuch important nahi hai" "Aacha hua Dadi...meri koi behen nahi hai" "Varna uss bichari ke saath kya hota main soch nahi sakta" Randhir said

"Randhir" Dadi shouted at him

"Main batati hu kya hota" "Waris ke moh main inhone...iss aurat ne" Renuka pointed at Dadi

"Ladki thi isliye inhone mera pehla baacha girvaya..." Renuka broke down into tears.

Everyone was shocked to listen.

"I don't want it to happen with Sanyukta" Renuka said.

Sanyukta got scared after listening all this.

"Aaisa kuch nahi hoga Sanyukta ke saath" "Main hone nahi dunga" He said looking at Dadi
