Scene shifts to birls house in Abhi's room. 

Abhi : Akshu chup chap ye sab dawai  khalo. please

Akshu : Nahi abhi mujhe kadve lagthe hai. 

Abhi : chup chap khalo. Patha nahi achanak kya hua tumhe aise beech sadak par gir gayi. 

Akshu: Mujhe kya hua tha abhi. Maine kuch bola kya behosh hone se pehle?

Abhi: Nahi.. 

Akshu : Mujhe dar lag raha hai abhi.. aisa lagtha hai maano sab badhlne wala hai. 

Abhi: Akshu.. kuch nahi badhlega ..he holds her chin up.. sun rahi ho na meri baath kuch nahi badhlega.

Akshu wraps her hand around abhi and closes her eyes.

* Cough Cough* 

Both turn towards the door to see neil standing holding a tray. 

Neil: Bhabhi.. 

Abhira blushes as eventhough they have not confessed to each other they know what they feel for each other. They try to avoid looking at each other.

Neil:oops.. sorry akshu ..maa ne bheja hai 

Akshu: Ye kya hai Neil?

Neil : Soup hai... aapke liye.

Akshu: lekin abhi toh khaya maine. 

Neil: Mujhe kuch nahi patha aap maa se baath keejiye.

Akshu: ab ye aap kya hai.. tum toh mujhe tum bolthe the.

Neil: haannn. Tab bath alag thi. kyun bhai.. he looks at abhi and abhi nods. 

Akshu looks at him and fumes. 

Akshu : Kya alag thi.. 

Neil : bye bhai main chala mujhe maa bula rahi hai he runs towards kitchen. 

Akshu starts interrogating abhi. 

Akshu : kya alag thi.. 

Abhi: kuch nahi akshu.. neil bhi na kuch bhi boltha hai. Waise jab neil ne tumhe bhabhi bola toh tumne usse toka nahi. Kahi tum wohi chathi ho jo neil chahtha hai?

Akshu blushes.. She takes her towel turns towards the door. 

Akshu: hello.. main aisa kuch nahi chahthi.. woh toh main bass. 

Abhi: bass. he stands infront of her. 

Akshu: Bass... 

Abhi: Haan akshu bolo sun raha hoon.  he holds her hand. 

Akshu realizes she might give in for his touch. 

Akshu: woh main nahane ja rahi hoon. Kaafi thaki hui hun.. kisi aur din baath karthe hai. 

she throws towel on his face and runs into bathroom. 

Abhi smiles and removes the towel from his face. and before he could follow her she closes door on his face. 

Abhi mutters to himself:Kab thak bhagogi. Kabhi na kabhi toh bahar ayega hi. 

Suddenly he hears 

"Abhi" Manjari screaming his name

Abhi: aya maa.. He runs downstairs.

Akshu looks herself in mirror. 

Akshu: kya main sach main neil ki bhabhi banna chahthi hun.. 

She remembers all the sweet moments between them. 

Akshu: tu bhi na akshu.. kya kya sochthi hai. she hits her head with her hand and smiles looking at her in mirror. 

=================================================================

Abhi sees harsh sitting on dining table and having dinner. 

Abhi: Maa aapne bulaya?

Manjari: haan . akshu kaha hai?

Abhi: woh fresh hone gayi hai. 

Manjari : accha theek hai.. 

Neil: woh dekho bhabhi... oops akshu aarahi hai.. 

Manjari smiles by covering her mouth abhi hits neil on his head. 

Akshu comes down and smiles at harsh. 

Harsh smiles back. 

Harsh : ab kaisi hai tumhari tabiyath. 

Akshu: jee behathar shukriya.

Neil: waise bhabhi theek kaise nahi hothi bhai ne khayal jo ithna rakha hai. 

Harsh's world shakes for a moment when he heard bhabhi from neil's mouth. 

Akshu: Neil please mazak bandh karo. Mere aur abhi ke beech main aisa kuch nahi hai jaisa tum soch rahe ho. 

Neil: sorry akshu. Maine socha. 

Abhi: kya socha tune.. 

Harsh leaves the hall and manjari sees him leaving she follows him. he goes to their bedroom. 

Harsh: kya sachmein ?

Manjari: Nahi abhi thak aisa abhi ne kuch kaha nahi hai lekin shayad unke beech kuch ho saktha hai. aur akshu toh ithni pyari hai. 

Harsh: lekin mere dost ki beti ka kya? uss bacchi ka kya ? mere wade ka kya manjari. tum samajh rahi ho na. 

Manjari: Jaanthi hun lekin.. Bacchon ki kushi main hi apni kushi hai na. 

Harsh: tum samajh nahi rahi ho manjari maine manish uncle se bath ki hai. karthik ki beti meri bahu banegi. ye vada kiya hai. 

Manjari: lekin. 

Harsh: Lekin kya manjari mujhe kuch samajh nahi araha hai. Main kya jawab doon unhe kaise mooh dikhaoon. 

Manjari: aap tension math leejiye please. ye leejiye pani peejiye. 

She makes him to drink water. 

Suddenly they hear the breaking of  a vase. Manjari goes out and sees that it was wind. But little do they know that akshu heard everything.
