Shivaay is smiling as he sees his brothers enjoying their time with Anika.

Om : Bhabhi, do you know how good Rudy is in Hindi?

Ru: It is not important, Bhabhi.

Anika: I know, Rudra. The other day, I had written a letter to Priyanka... and I saw you trying to read it... but failed miserably.

Om: When Bhabhi?

Anika: When I came here as...

Shivaay : Shanno... halwai from Mathura...

Aniomru see Shivaay at the door. Shivaay is just staring at them.

Ru: Wait, you were Shanno!!!!

Anika smiles shyly while Omru looked at her amusingly. Shivaay is silent and waits for their words. Seeing their ignorance, he leaves. Aniomru see him leaving but remain silent. They are feeling bad but refrain themselves as he was wrong.

Anika: Om, Rudy... I think you must talk to him.

Om: No, Bhabhi. He needs to realise the intensity of his actions.

Ru: Haan, Bhabhi. His mistake is not a small thing that could be forgotten easily.

Anika: I know... it's not easy to forgive him. But he is feeling guilty. I am not going to forgive him easily. I wanted to go from here since Priyanka is fine... and...

Dadi: Pls don't leave, Anika.

The trio see Dadi at the door. Dadi comes inside.

Dadi: Anika, I know you respect marriage. Shivaay has seen a lot that he has lost his belief in love and marriage. I am not asking you to forgive him but can you please give him a chance?

Anika is confused ... she is in a dilemma. The wounds she had endured are so deep that it is still killing her. On the other side, Shivaay's guilt and pain is also bothering her. She comes out of her thoughts with a touch on her shoulder.

Om: Bhabhi, I know you are fighting an inner battle. We will always be with you. But please take a decision for yourself. Whatever be your decision, we will be with you.

Ru: Bhabhi, you need not worry about anything. Think about everything ..we will be by your side in every situation. You will always be our sister.

Anika smiles at them.

Dadi: But... Om...

Om: Dadi, please think from her place. Or worse, if the same had happened with Priyanka, will you be OK with it?

Dadi is speechless and Anika is adoring her brothers who are standing with her against their family.

Anika: Dadi, Om, Ru... I need some time to think...

Omru nod and leave the room with Dadi after hugging Anika.

On the other side, Shivaay is sitting by the pool in deep thoughts. Tears are flowing down his cheeks as every moment with Anika flashes before his eyes...the happy moments brought a smile on his face. But it changed the next moment into anger and agony as he remembered his beastly act. Omru are seeing Shivaay with pain. They want to console him but stop as they want Shivaay to face his mistakes.

Anika is contemplating. She is feeling bad for Shivaay but his act is stopping he from trusting him. Though she us aware of his immense love for Priyanka, his insensible act of ridiculing her and a pious relationship made a deep scar in her soul. She wants to trust him but us afraid of the consequences. She had trusted him once and he had broken her brutally.

As the night arrives, Omru reach the kitchen to make some breakfast.

Om: Rudy, why don't we do Bhabhi's favourite?

Ru: We can do... but what is her favourite?

Shivaay comes there and see Omru. Omru stopped their talk swing Shivaay.

Shivaay: You are not even ready to talk to me...

Shivaay's painful voice shook Omru. But they remained silent. Seeing their silence, Shivaay sheds more tears. Omru are controlling themselves as Shivaay's bloodshot eyes shattered them.

Shivaay(choked voice): It's ...OK... well... Ani ..Anika's favourite food... is... aloo puri and... gajar ka halwa...

Shivaay hurriedly leaves the place and Omru stare at his retreating figure with tears. Anika is also saddened with the distance between the brothers. She wants to end this and so she takes a decision...for her brothers.

At the dining table, Dadi is looking at Anika expectantly. Shivaay is looking down while Priyanka is worried and angry. Anika is lost in her thoughts. Soon Omru come.

Om: The dinner is ready.

Ru: Guess what is the dinner, Bhabhi?

Anika: What?

Omru: Aloo puri and gajar ka halwa.

Anika smiles and looks at Omru who serve her. Shivaay is happy to see Anika smile.

Priyanka : What about me?

Shivaay(low voice) : Priyanka, you need to have the food as prescribed by the doctor... at least for few days.

A silence ensues. Shivaay is still looking down.

Anika: I think Shivaay is right... for few days, Priyanka.

Priyanka : OK... But don't miss your food, Bhabhi.

Anika(smiles): I will not... (pauses) Dadi...

Dadi: Haan, Puttar.

Anika : I am ready to give a chance to this relationship and... Shivaay.

Shivaay looks up at Anika with guilt. Omru are also shocked. Dadi and Priyanka are stunned.

Om: Bhabhi, are you sure?

Anika: Yes, Om. But...

Ru: But what, Bhabhi?

Anika: It will be a new start. Shivaay has to earn his trust. And yeah... I will forgive him only if my family accepts him.

Om: Then are you going home, Bhabhi?

Anika: I need Gauri's answer... .and also my brothers.

Omru look at Anika and hug her by the sides.

Anika: If they are also convinced. ..then...

Dadi: Thank you so much, Anika.

Anika: Please don't thank me, Dadi. I am just doing the right thing.

Shivaay is still silent. He stands up and goes to Anika. He kneels before earning gasps from everyone.

Anika: Shivaay, what...

Shivaay: Anika... thank you for giving me a chance. I know I have broken your trust. But I will try my best to earn it... I am still sceptical about love and marriage... I know I shouldn't ask you this. But will you please help me gain trust in love and marriage?

Anika is shaken with the pain in his voice. His plead at the end brings tears in her eyes. Every soul there is pained seeing the ever strong Shivaay broken. Anika just nods her head which brings a small smile on his face. Shivaay gets up and leaves to his room.

Priyanka : I had never seen Bhaiyya so vulnerable...

Dadi: He is scared, Priyanka.

With this Dadi and Priyanka leave.

Anika: Om, Ru... go talk with him

Ru: Bhabhi...

Anika: No, please talk with him. I know you are also in pain seeing him he needs you and you too need him. Go...

Omru hug Anika and leaves to see Shivaay. They reach Shivaay's room to see Shivaay sitting on the couch with his palms covering his face.

Om: Shivaay...

Shivaay looks up. Omru see his teary face and rush to him and hug him. Shivaay too hugs them and cries harder.

Shivaay: I will earn your acceptance and forgiveness too... just give me a chance.

They break the hug and Omru nod.

Om: Sleep, Shivaay. It's getting late.

Shivaay lies on the bed and as he falls asleep, Omru leave. They check on Anika and find her sleeping.
