Raavi cleared her throat to grab attention as the entire Pandya family along with Disha was busy enjoying the delicious breakfast she had served them minutes ago. 

“Mujhe aap sab se kuch baat karni hai. Suman kaki mujhe kuch dino ke liye ek modeling consignment ke silsile me Paris jana hai “. She had been observing everyone’s reaction with attention as it changed from confusion to curiosity to shock as she had finally dropped the bomb.

“Ae markundi gai, tu khud yaha aayi thi na Dhara ka khayal rakhne. Kya Kaha tha tune, tujhe apni galti sudharni hai. Itni jaldi thak gayi. Are abhi to dhang se ek mahina bhi nahi bita hai or teri bahanebazi shuru ho gayi. Are tu chali jayegi to Dhara ka dhyan kon rakhega or is Ghar ko kon sambhalega ? “

Suman did realize what she just spoke but her anger would not let her think through the actual meaning of her words.

"Maine har pahlu ke baarein me soch k hi ye faisla kiya hai kaki. Ab aap hi kahti hai na ki kuch dino me Mera or Shiva ka talaq ho Jayega. Fir ek n ek din to is Ghar ki nayi bahu ko is Ghar ki zimmedari sambhalni hi padegi. To isse better tarika kya ho sakta hai. Jitne dino Mai Ghar se Bahar rahungi meri jagah Disha sabka dhyan rakhegi. After all isse leni to meri hi jagah hai n. To isi bahane iski practice bhi ho jayegi. Or chuki abhi Dhara di k early months hai to future k comparison me abhi unhe meri kam zarorat hogi. Kyu Disha sambhalogi na tum Meri jagah is Ghar ko?”

 Raavi ended her question with her bright smile, one that Shiva knew meant danger.

“Are ha ha. Kyu nahi”, Disha responded with eager enthusiasm thinking this was her opportunity to make a space in the hearts of the members of the Pandya Niwas.

“ Chal tu bhi kya yaad rakhegi. Teri ye farmaish bhi Puri ki maine. Aakhir is Ghar k logo ko bhi to pata chale ki tere jane ke baad kaise meri dishu is pure parivar ko barobar Chala sakti hai. Hogayi teri baat fir?”

“Bas ek chiz or kaki. Is trip pe Shiva ko mere Sath jana hoga”.

The entire conversation had kept Shiva on the edge but this was the final nail on the coffin. Before Suman could yell at her, he took hold of her and brought them to their room, shutting the door with a bang.
