A/n: Heyaa everyone, I hope you all are doing fine. So here you go and I expect atleast a good number of comments 😍-

Meanwhile,

Shreyas's pov-

Usse nature kitna pasand tha, jab hum free hote the , we always used to.....ohh gosh , why im suddenly missing her so much , after all those years, i was the one jisne usse ......don't think much Shrey, calm down . She is never gonna return back after whatever I did with her and to be honest , I don't deserve her. She deserves someone who will keep her happy, not someone who will break her heart.

"Relax Shrey tera phone dhund tu.

Haa yeh raha . sablog already wahi pe h. You are getting late. Rah will murder you ." muttering these words to myself, I somehow managed to lock my room and rushed towards the banquet hall.

Suddenly, I ran into someone. I was about to say sorry, but the girl was faster . she said sorry and ran away without turning away but it was the voice which shocked me.

" naa this can't be her. She can't be here" my mind said.

"But what if this is here,Go follow her?" My heart said.

Listening to my heart, I dashed after her, but it was late.

Few minutes ago,

At the corridor,

"Krishii" Ritika exclaimed. She was just making Sammy have her dinner while Virat and Rohit were helping her. And while doing so , they come towards the corridor where she saw her sister-in-law, and can't help calling her. She was seeing her after a long time and she knows how much her husband has missed his baby sister. And on instinct , she turned toward Ro who was standing dumbfounded there. She was about to call him but hearing Sammy's voice , she looked toward her.

"bhuiiiiiii"

Sammy exclaimed, seeing Krishi and hugging her legs. Krishi, too shocked at having this encounter come out of her thoughts and kneel down towards Sammy to hug and take her in her arms. But stopped hearing " Sammy boo,nooo...don't, she is not your bhui, bhui ko aapki chinta nahi h, kisiki bhi nahi hai,aur hoti toh yeh wapas aati, is tarah humse dur nahi jati, yeh ache se janti h yeh , hum sab isse kitna pyar karte h, jaan basti h hum sabki isme, but nahi isse toh kisi ki parwah hi nahi hai, na apne bhaiyo ki, nahi pariwar ki , na apne dosto ki 3 saall..3 saal hume nhi pata tha tum kha ho , do you have any idea how much we yearned for you, how much we missed you, you don't because you don't give a damn about us ." Rohit said and without listening to anyone just storm off from there.

Krishi tearfully looked toward Rohit's disappearing figure. She felt a hand on her shoulder , seeing Ritsy somehow controlling herself from crying , she said "bhabhi....i....bhaiya"

And she broke down .

"Krishi bacha, Ro missed you boht, sabke samne tin saal se strong banane ka natak karte karte thak gaya hai. He didn't mean to hurt you. Itte time se jo narazgi and frustration thi woh aese bhar aayi, he loves you bacha , baba ke baad , you are his only family apart from me and Sammy and of course our team." Ritsy said , ruffling her hairs. She further added "Jao apne bhaiya ko manao , Waise bhi, Ro apni Gudiya se jada der tak naraz nahi ho sakta." Krishi rushed in Ro's direction and in turn , collided with someone coming from the opposite side.

"Sorry" and she ran again behind her bhaiya.

At the same time in the banquet hall,

All the youngsters are in the hall planning for Aru's surprise Birthday party who still has no idea that her family is here. They were deciding on the theme

Trisha - Unicorn theme rakhte hai

Vaani - Aru ki Birthday party planning kar rahe hai hum teri yaa Zivu ki nahi kuch aur socho

Jassi - Aru ko sabse jada kya pasand hai.....haa Harry potter pagal hai woh uske liye, toh hum yeh hi theme rahte hai

All of them agreed to it because Aru's obsession for Harry potter was something known to all. Finally they all started with decorations as food was already ordered and so was cake by Rah who wanted it to be the most special birthday of her life.

Everyone was here and there decorating when Shrey entered and saw Ruhi standing on a unbalanced stoll and was about to fall, so he quickly went towards her and balanced hera and said "Tum dekh kar nahi Khadi ho sakti, abhi gir jati toh" Ruhi just looks at him with a guilty face and says "Sorry" while holding her one ear. This is seen by Trisha and Sayesha who whisper among themselves

"Both of them look so cute together"

" Yaa, they are my OTP"

"When is bhai going to propose her"

"I don't know but I guess it will be really soon Bhai has her initial inked "

"Really, that will be great, ek saath do do shaadi" Pihu who was just close to them also commented "They both make a cute couple"

"Obviously I'm gladly waiting for these two to make it official. Doesn't RuYash sound cool?" Tara chirped in.

"Of Course it does," Sayesha & Trisha replied.

" Guys hogya sab decoration" Rahul says suddenly making all of them look towards him and Ruhi gestures to Shrey to make her stand. Vaani "Ho Gaya hai sab bas cake aana bacha hai, Woh kaha hai "

Jassi: Maine check kiya hai bas 10 min mein aa jayega

Rahul: Perfect.....ab bas Aru ke aane ki der hai. I hope ki usse yeh pasand aaye

Tisha: Bhai humne plan ki hai party pasand toh aana hi hai

Vaani: Aru ko laa kon raha hai hum sab toh jaa nahi sakte

Ruhi: Maine hamari ek common friend Sejal ko bola hai woh le kar aayegi

(Writer: Aru, Sejal and Ruhi were together in med school)

Rah: You are a lifesaver Ruhi, main toh bhool hi gaya tha ki Aru ko nahi pata hum sab yaha hai

Ruhi just smiles at him while Sayesha asks "Rah Bhai aapne apna proposal mein kya likha hai hume bhi toh batao" This turns the whole conversation into a Rahul teasing session which everyone except Rah enjoys.

Rah: Guys hogya bas ab, ek toh already main itna nervous hu upar se tum log, pata nahi Aru kya bolegi.

Jassi: She loves you alot bro Haa hi bolegi.

Just then the cake arrives and now that all the things are set, everyone leaves to get ready.

After a while,

They all come back to see their bhaiyas and Bhabhi's already present.

Mahi bhai: Sab ready hai na.

Rish: Haa bhai sab ready hai, khana aur cake bhi aa gaya hai bas Aru ke aane ka intezar hai

Ritika bhabhi: Toh kaha hai humari Birthday girl

Ruhi: Bhabhi main Sejal ko Message karti hu abhi.

Ruhi messages Sejal "yaha sab ready hai, aa jao tum dono. Also Aru ko blindfold karke la na." And gets a message of "okay" back "maine message kar diya hai woh log on the way hai sab chup jao jaldi" she says.

All of them start to find places for hiding.

Here at Aru's side

Aru: Sejal aur kitni der chal na ab aur wait nahi ho raha hai mujhse, mujhe bhook lagi hai

Sejal:Toh maine bola tha lunch skip karne ko, Bas Viaan aa jaye phir chalte hai

Just then she get a message, quickly replying okay she turns towards Aru and says "Viaan ka message tha woh already parking main wait kar raha hai chal"

Aru was saying "main toh kab se bol rahi hu----" when sejal puts a mask over her face "chup ek dum, Ruhi aur tumhara bestie na bilkul Sahi kehte hai, jab tujhe jada bhook lagti hai na toh tu logo ka dimag Khati hai. Abb pure raste ek dum chup rehna warna wahi utar dugi" while Aru makes faces but stays quiet and starts walking and Sejal just shakes her head and walks behind her to take her towards the hall instead of parking. They finally reach towards the main corridor when Sejal put her hands on Aru's eyes and said "main tujhe kidnap kar rahi hu " Since it was very common for Sejal to do such things at random times, Aru also said "chal...bas firoti ke aadhe paise mere" and both of them laughed. Soon they reached a dark room,

Aru: Sejal yaar ho gaya yeh aab mujhe bahut bhook lagi hai toh hum chale... Before she could complete her statement light got on and everyone yelled "SURPRISE" at the top of their voices.

Aru: Aap sab yaha kab aaye, mujhe kyu nahi pata chala ki aap log aane wale ho

Jassi: Dumbo, agar bata dete toh surprise kaise hota yeh

Aru: Sejal ko kab pata chala yeh

Sejal: Ruhi ne mujhe subha hi message kar diya tha iss sabke baare mein

Anushka: abb kya wahi Khadi ho kar questions karti rahoge ki yaha aa kar sabse milogi bhi

Aru then goes to inside to meet her family who she hasn't seen for so long (even though it's only been a few weeks)

"Bhai kaise ho aap, aur bhabhi aap, Nush bhabhi bhaiya ne aapko jada pareshan to nahi kiya na, Sammy kaisi ho aap bhui ko miss kiya aapne, Ritz bhabhi aap kaise ho aur Bhaiyu aap, guys Bhaiyu kaha hai toh kahi chupte hue so to nahi gye Bhaiyu ,Ro bhaiyu, Guys kuch toh bolo"

Vi: tu kisi ko kuch bolne degi toh hi woh bolega na aur rahi baat Ro ki toh usse headache ho raha tha toh humne hi force kiya usse so Jane ko but usne kaha hai ki kal pura din woh tere saath rahe ga

Aru gets upset hearing that her Bhaiyu is not there right now but smiles when she hears his promise of spending the next whole day with her.

Ritz: Abb baari hai gifts ki......Sammy Aru bhui ko gift toh do jo aap leke aaye ho unke liye

Then both Sammy and Ritz gift her a card which Sammy made for her and a beautiful pair of earrings, After that all off them gifted her one by on, Mahi Bhai with watch and Virat with a necklace, her bestie just said that she'll receive her gift from him the next day....

Tara: Bhuk lagi hai guys gifts bhi de dediye aab toh cake cutting start karo

Vaani: Jaldi start karo na yaar mujhe bhi bhuk lagi hai

Rah:Tujhe toh 24hrs bas bhuk lagi rahti hai

All of them laugh while Vaani makes a face. Then Jassi and Rish get the birthday cake and all sing and start with their dinner as it was getting late and all kids were getting sleepy,

Mahi bhai: Hum sab apne room mein jaa rahe hai kuch bhi ho toh bula lena and time se so jana, Ruhi teri zimedari hai, dekhna ki yeh log time se so jaye

Ruhi just nods her head while Tara, Vaani, Kiara and Aru whine" Bhai aap ko humpe Bharosa nahi hai kya???"

Elders just laugh at them and go towards their respective rooms while youngsters decide to watch a movie. Almost all of them doze off while watching but one person is awake trying hard to sleep knowing that tomorrow will change his life...

So,
•Who is this person? What exactly is going to happen?

• How's RuYash, Are Trisha and Sayesha right, will thier ship sail?

• Will Rah's proposal go us planned or there will be some hindrance?

• What's Aru besties gift for her?
