Ohh I missed the last update. It's nice. Pam has brains unlike brars. Loved her presence of mind and quick thinking on her feet


When I read all FFs and OSs I get the satisfaction that people behave how normal people will behave in any situation and not like headless chickens we generally get in serials.


So the murder mystery begins and Sahiba and Angad ka relationship discussion is now put on hold


Waiting for the next update.

Chapter 4

Precap: The police and media are trying to enter thehouse. With a hint of confusion, Pradeep Rathore the inspector asked the policeto enter the house and asked them about the reason as they did not call forbackup. The newly arrived police inspector, Ashok Bhatia approached Angad andsaid, “Mr. Angad Singh Brar, you are under arrest for the murder of your wife,Mrs. Sahiba Brar.”

Arrest for the murder of a person who is still alive and unharmed???

It shocked everyone to hear such accusation, but as usual, our Jhansi ki Rani, Sahiba stepped forward towards the police inspector Ashok Bhatia and said, “you mean to arrest my husband for the murder of me??”

Now, it is their turn to get shocked and before they could react, the media personnel burst into their house, their questions reaching them before they did.

“Angad Sir, is it true, that you have brutally murdered your wife?”

“Angad Sir, is the love affair between you and her sister the reason for you to remove her from this world..??”

“Are you going to marry Seerat ma’am now that Sahiba Ma’am is no more?”

The questions bundled with accusations went on, which stopped the moment they saw Sahiba.

With a sneer Sahiba turned towards the and replied, “As you can see, I am alive healthy and hearty. So rab ke vaste please stop with your ghatiya accusations and leave us in peace.”

Angad taking on from there said, “SahibaKaur Brar is my love, my life, and my wife.”

Here he turned to look at Sahiba who had a stunned expression, and the intensity with which Angad declared his love made her stomach jump with butterflies and a small smile made its place on her lips. But the giddy feeling went out as fast as they have come as she remembered the same declaration from him towards her sister. Angad turned towards the media and continued,

“Now, why everyone seems to think Sahiba is dead remains to be seen but let me make one thing very clear about me marrying Seerat. It is never going to happen. Never.”

This response made the media silent and using this opportunity Veer escorted the media out of their house. Sensing that the media has already run the murder news of her sister, Keerat quickly dialed home and appraised of the whole happenings to her family. She switched the video call to show Sahiba safe and with a sigh of relief the Monga’s cut the call after promising to visit her soon.

Meanwhile, Sahiba turned towards Inspector Pradeep Rathore, and said “I think Rumi is responsible for creating this fiasco. If you can please relate the incidents to which why you were called to Inspector Ashok Bhatia, it will clear the misunderstandings”.

Pradeep then explained to Ashok about the last night’s attack at Brar office building, and todays attempt to kidnap Sahiba, including the fake passports he created. Ashok fell into a contemplative mood, and said, “Rumi is a very clever criminal mastermind. Do you know that the woman we found dead in Mrs. Brar’s hostel is wearing the same dress she is wearing now, including the accessories. We matched them to the leaked party video of today. In addition to that, someone saw a person who looks like Mr. Angad in the suit he is wearing now enter the hostel room, some mere minutes before the dead body was found.”

As one they turned towards Rumi for an explanation. But Rumi was in a different calculative world. He decided that his game was up, and said, “Sahiba and I belong together. If we cannot be united in this world, then we will be united in after life. Come Sahiba, lets die together and be together.” Saying so, he tried to grab a gun from one of the police. It would be an insult to Indian police if they let such thing happen. Having anticipated such an attack, they took him down with a blow to his head.

The police then said to Angad, “Sir, please let’s continue this at the station. Given his attempt it is not safe for the family. We will be needing statements. So, if you and your wife could come to station, we have to unravel loads of mystery including the murder of a young woman.”

Angad agreed to this and asked Veer and Pam to accompany them with the evidence.

The police left to the station with Rumi in their custody, and everyone could not help but a give a thanks of prayer to Rab for finally having the culprit in the hands of authorities.

As Sahiba, Angad and Veer went along with the police, Keerat took the leave of the family to go home. She left the house but not before giving a cold angry stare at Seerat. She looked like she wanted to say something, but then changed her mind and went home.

Hansraj Chachu who is the family gossip could not hold any longer and started to make some comments on today’s drama. Seerat who sensed the direction which the comment was going, started to reply, but before he could reach half of the statement it was the roar of Bebe which stopped him from speaking any further.

“Koi kuch nahi kahega. No will be speaking of this matter today. Not anyone. Not anything. Not yet. Not before all the truth and facts are out on the table. Brar Saab, clearly, we are living in a different world which is cut from the happenings in this house. It will end today. I am going to take point on this and any decision I am going to take is going to be final. No Manveer that includes you too. You will show me the respect you say you have for me and trust me. And more importantly you will think of your son’s happiness without any prejudice and baggage of yours. Angad’s wellbeing is the only thing that should matter to you. Not your ego. Take your time tonight to come to terms with that.”

“Seerat, just do not speak to anyone and stay in your room till I can digest your true face. Nahi, YOU WILL NOT SPEAK. Just go to your room and that applies to everyone.”

Saying so, she waited for all of them to disperse. Finally, it was just Bebe and Daarji who were left in thehall and Daarji took Bebe’s hand and guided her to their room.

It was late in the night, when the three of them reached home.

Bebe was present at the dining table, and she directed Sukhdeep to serve them. As they were done eating and got up to leave, Bebe held Sahiba’s hands and later putting a hand on her head, she said, “I am very glad that with Rab’s blessings you have escaped sinister plans of that monster. I am sure reliving all the things you have went through the past few days must not have been easy. Please take some rest today, and we will speak tomorrow. Most importantly, trust me when I say that you are very beloved to me. And I will make sure no injustice is done against you and your self-respect is not lost. I believe in not taking sides, especially in couples as they are one, but, if necessary, I will take side even one against my grandson. Do you understand that and believe me?”

Sahiba with tears in her eyes, kissed Bebe’s hands and hugged her. Angad too hugged Bebe and left holding Sahiba’s hand. Veer hugged his grandmother from behind and said, “Bebe, aap phikar naa karo. After so many days the communication line between is open once again. I believe everything will be set. Chalo let me drop my queen to her room to get some beauty sleep.” With a small laugh, Bebe went along with Veer praying for everything to go back to normal.

Sahiba’s and Angad’s room:

They went silently to their room basking in being together serenely after a long time. Their serenity cracked a little when Sahiba went to change her clothes but could not find any. Angad hurried along and found her hidden dress of hers. As she took the dress from Angad, an eye lock to banta hain…

Now, after breaking the eye lock, it is contemplating hour. As both of them took their sides on bed to sleep, they relived the happy flashbacks of their time together. Despite the storm that is present in their life currently, it was the most peaceful time they have experienced in a long time. After a few hits and misses of seeing each other, both of them turned away to contemplate.

Sahiba could not forget his declaration to the media, his possessiveness, his care, and the truth in his statement and his disgust when he said about marrying Seerat di. The one thing about Angad is that he never really lied to her before. Well, expect for hiding things, even then, when confronted he failed to understand her concern, but he did not lie or attempt to deny the truth. So, when he says that he proposed to her not Seerat di, there must be some truth to it. How, she did not know, but she wanted to listen to her heart this time and explore it.

Similarly, Angad was thinking of his actions. As a businessman with integrity, being accountable, and holding people accountable comes with the territory. But who is really accountable for today’s announcement and for previous siyappa’s. Rewinding all the events, he came to realization that Seerat has always played victim card and avoided taking responsibility. He cannot acquit himself as he always accepted her excuses and never held her accountable and worse, he made excuses for her in front of Sahiba. So, in the end, he concluded that he portrayed to Sahiba that he was not responsible for Seerat actions as did not do anything directly and he had forgiven Seerat without a thought. It was Sahiba who had suffered from the beginning, from his inactions. She asked him to be vigilant, but instead he blamed her for thinking poorly of her sister. All this time, he was stuck in the web that Sahiba did not trust him. He is now realizing that he himself has eradicated her trust layer by layer every time he dismissed her and her concerns.

As he was busy berating himself, sudden voice of Sahiba jerked him.

Sahiba turned towards Angad and said, “Angad, I wanted to ask you something. Can you give me a direct answer to that?”

Angad: “Sure, Sahiba, you know you can ask me anything. I will be straight forward and give you facts.”

Sahiba: “Thank you. When I left the house, you kept saying that even though you said sorry and cleared up the misunderstandings I did not listen because of my ego. At that time, I was too hurt to register that, but what do you mean by that?”

Angad: “Wahi ki, I realized that you had every right to be angry with me for hiding Seerat’s proposal from you, and I wanted to apologize and tell my feelings to you. I asked Bebe for you and promised her that I would clear up all the misunderstandings. I found you under the chandelier and I apologized to you and expressed my love for you and how I want to prove to the world that we are indeed Rab banaya jodi. But you left before answering me.”

Sahiba: “But Angad, I was not there. Indeed, I also realized that I have not given you a chance to share your perspective and wanted to speak with you. Gurleen chachi came by me as I was searching for you and she sent me in the direction you went saying that, “Angad is waiting for you with flower bouquet. Please come back soon with a happy smile on your face.” But when I was about to call you, you were proposing to Seerat di. Heartbroken I ran away from you. What does it mean?”

As Sahiba was speaking, Angad was confused. The heartbreak was indeed evident in her tone even now. Angad in his mind “what the hell happened. I cannot understand anything. What sort of misunderstanding is this. Sahiba’s actions afterwards explains her perspective. But how could it happen and thought of that day and tried picturing Sahiba. To his dismay, he figured out that all the time he was proposing to her, it was back he was speaking to. He did not see her face nor utter her name. Only when he was not getting a response, he called out her name and that was when that person left. …”

Before he could think further of this mystery, the sudden opening of the door startled both of them. In walked Seerat with a juice tray in her hands. “Angad, please tum ye juice peelo. Whole day you have been out in the police station. I wanted to come and serve you dinner, but Bebe said she was going to take care of that. Angad cannot believe the audacity of her. How heartless she has to be, that she did not even look at Sahiba to enquire about her wellbeing. For the first time, he started comparing both of them and only one came on top. Aasmaan aur zameen ka farak hain between them. Seerat looked like a person on mission with calculative eyes and without a concern for her sister. He stopped her from speaking further by asking coldly, “don’t you have any manners Seerat? How many times do you have to be reminded that this is a married couple’s room. It is basic sense to knock before entering. As you have said before Bebe took care of us. So why did you have to come after knowing that? I would say knock on the door when you come next time, but I do not wish your presence in this room nor does my wife. So, consider it as afinal warning and please do not come to this room again. Saying so, he took the juice glass from her. This action confused her, but soon cleared up as he took the juice and went Sahiba’s bedside. Wordlessly he took her hand to make her sit and brought the glass to her lips. With an eye lock Sahiba drank the juice and offered it to him. Angad nodded his head as a no but with pleading doey eyes, Sahiba brought it to his lips, and he finished drinking from it. He kept th eglass on the table and asked Seerat, “tum gayi nahi ab tak? LEAVE NOW. And remember DO… NOT… ENTER… AGAIN…

Seerat who was feeling nauseated after seeing the lovely display affection ran from there hyperventilating the fact how everything is crumbling apart. The dramatic run of Seerat from the room which was similar to the run by the person who heard his proposal activated his brain cells. The light bulb moment also triggered another memory of how Seerat knew about the proposal. Now his activated brain is not ready accept the excuse Seerat gave when asked how she knew about it. He turned to Sahiba and said, “It was Seerat.”

Awesome chapter! So much better than the show where Sahiba will be blamed.

Look forward to reading how Seerat gets her due.

Very good chapter. Loved it. Finally dimaag ki batti jali angad ke.


But I dunno I cannot reconcile the non repentence of angad of all the free passes he has given to Seerat and how there has been zero introspection. The proposal MU was just tip of the ice berge. I hope now atleast he will introspect about how he failed as husband and never treated sahiba with respect and his equal.
