All were assembled in the hall as Tej called them.

Tej- So.... Mujhe aap sab ko batana hai ki aaj ghar main party hai.

(So.....I was saying that today there is a party in the house.)

Om- Hna wahin puchne wala thaa main dad kaisi party?

(I was going ask that which party?)

Tej- Of course Om. Tumhari aur Gauri ki reception ki party.

(Of course Om. Your and gauri's reception.)

Rikara- (in unison) What!!!

Om looked at shivika and Gauri looked at ruvya.

Gauri- Par..... Reception. Iss sab ki kya jarurat hai.

(But reception. What is the need of this.)

Jhanvi- Kaise jarurat nahin. Duniya bhi toh dekhegi humari family ki bahu ko.

(It has need. The world should see that who is the daughter in law of this family.)

Om- (mumbled) Jaise koi bohot badi maha Rani hai. (Says) Par dad iski kya jarurat hai. Waise bhi 6 mahine baad divorce hone hi wala hai.

(Like she is a great Queen. But dad it has no need. We are getting divorce in 6 months.)

Tej- Abhi tak divorce nahin hua hai aur tab tak gauri tumhari patni hai. (To jhanvi) Jhanvi tumne Raj aur sarda ko inform kar diya na?

(But the divorce didn't happen. And Gauri is our bahu till then. Jhanvi did you inform Raj and sarda?)

Jhanvi- Hna Tej. Subah hi phone kar liya thaa maine.

(Yes Tej. I informed them in the morning.)

Tej- Good.

Saying this he went outside. Jhanvi also went towards her room.

Gauri and om looked at each other with challenging looks and then go away.

In the evening,

Om was brushing his hair when the washroom door opened. Om saw the reflection of Gauri in the mirror. She was looking breathtaking beautiful in the black saree with golden embroidery. For sometimes om kept aside his hair brushing work and kept staring at gauri through the mirror.

Om- (in a low voice) Beautiful....

Gauri- Tumne kuch kaha?

(Did you say something?)

Om came out of his dream land and realised what he was doing.

Om- Nahin toh. Maine kuch bhi nahin kaha. (In mind) Yeh tu kya kar raha thaa om. Pagal ho gaya hai kya.

(No. I didn't say anything. What are you doing om. Are you gone crazy.)

Gauri- Okay phir jaldi se ready ho jaao. Guests aane hi waale honge.

(Okay then get ready fast. Guests are about to come.)

Om- Tum chalo. Main piche piche aata hun.

(You go. I will come.)

Gauri- Not possible. Main aage nahin jaane waali.

(Not possible. I will not go first.)

Om- Okay thik hai. Aur Hna suno humein media ke saamne jyaada nahin ladhna hai.

(Okay. And yes listen we will not fight more in front of the media.)

Gauri- Matlab thoda ladhna chalega?

(Means we can fight a little?)

Om- Hna......of course. Ab Chalo.

(Yes.....of course. Now let's go.)

He tried to hold gauri's hand.

Gauri- Ahaan....abhi se bilkul bhi nahin. Aur mujhse thoda dur rehna.

(Not from now. And keep a distance from me.)

Om- Aur mujhe bhi koi shauk nahin.

(I also don't want to.)

Gauri- Then let's go.

They both went downstairs. Tej announced gauri as his daughter in law. Then the media became busy in clicking their photos.

Media- Sir aap thoda ma'am ke pass aayiye.

(Sir please come near ma'am.)

Om- Nahin humara limit itna tak hi hai.

(No our limit is till here.)

The media became confused.

Media- Sir matlab?

(Sir means?)

Gauri- Kuch nahin. Yeh majak kar raha hai. (To om) Kya bol rahe ho.

(Nothing. He is joking. What are you saying.)

Om- (to gauri) Tumhine toh kaha thaa tumse dur rehne ke liye.

(You said to keep distance from you.)

Gauri- Tum mere thode pass aa sakte ho sirf photo uthaane ke liye.

(You can come a little near to me for photo.)

She pulled om towards her.

Gauri- (to media) Ho gaya aap logon ka.

(Is it over.)

Media- Ma'am ek last photo. Sir aap apni haath inke kamar pe rakhiye.

(Ma'am one last photo. Sir please place your hand on ma'am's waist.)

Gauri and om looked at each other.

Media- Please sir.

Om hesitantly placed his hand on gauri's waist. A unknown current ran through gauri's body.

The media clicked the picture and went away to the party.

Om took his hand away.

Om- Main woh.....Shivaay aur anika se milne jaa raha hun.

(I........am going to meet Shivaay and anika.)

Gauri spotted her parents and went to them.

When om was going towards shivika someone collided with him.

Om- Oh I am sorry. Maine dekha nahin.

(Oh I am sorry. I didn't see.)

Person- It's okay.

Om looked at the person's face and became surprised.

Om- Ridhima!!!

Ridhi- Hii om!

He hugged her excitedly.

Om- Kaise ho tum?

(How are you?)

Ridhi- Main thik hun. Tum batao. Toh tumne apni enemy se shaadi kar li.

(I am good. You say. You married to your enemy.)

Om- Kaisi shaadi. Yeh sab ek galti hai.

(Which marriage. This is a mistake.)

Ridhi- Matlab?

(Means?)

Om narrated everything to her.

Om- Aur humara divorce bhi hone wala hai.

(And we are also getting divorce.)

Ridhi- Ohh acha. Tabhi main sochun do dushman ek kaise ho gaye.

(Okay. And I am thinking how could two enemies became one.)

Om- Hum ek kabhi nahin ho sakte.

(We can't be one.)

Ridhi- Thik hai Om. Let's dance. Matlab tumhari patni ko isse koi takleef toh nahin hogi.

(Okay om. Let's dance. And I think your wife has no problem in it.)

Om- Of course. Let's go.

They went to the dance floor and started to dance.

This whole scenario was witnessed by ruvya and Gauri.

Bhavya- Dekho gauri. Yeh chipkali phirse wapas aa gayi. Dekho om se kaise chipak raha hai.

(See gauri. This Chipkali has returned now. Look how she is sticking to om.)

Gauri- Mujhe kya woh kuch bhi kare. Let him enjoy his life.

(He can do whatever he want. Let him enjoy his life.)

Saying this she went away.

Next the host announced for the couple dance.

Rudra went near the music box and instead of any romantic music he played, "Aa dekhe jara.....kisme kitna hai dum".

Rudra dragged Gauri and anika dragged omkara to the stage. And they danced like if they were challenging each other. Shivika and ruvya also joined them.

Somewhere in the corner, Ridhima was sitting with her drink. She looked at rikara and smirked.

Ridhi- Aise hi dushman bane raho tum dono. Mujhe om ko apna banane main koi takleef nahin hogi....

(Be enemies like this. I will have no difficulties to make om mine....)
