RECAP - Past continues... ShivOmRu poolside conversation... AniRiVya's bond with Avni...

MORNING

OBEROI MANSION

AniRiVya were running here and there for the preparation of Avni's college re-opening day.

Anika was walking fastly through the corridor while checking the lists.

A - Everything is almost arranged. Where did this Gauri and Bhavya go? I need to check both of their lists too. Aaj raita nahi phailna chahiye.

Suddenly she bumped into someone. She closed her eyes on the anticipation of falling down. But she didn't fall, she felt that she was in someone's strong arms. She opened her eyes and saw that she was in her bhagadbilla's arms.

They shared a cute eyelock. The trance was broken by the fake coughs of Rudra and Avni.

Shivaay quickly made Anika stand properly. They were looking here and there feeling embarassed.

S - Can't you walk properly? Always falling on me as if you don't have any other job.

A - Did anyone ask you to help me from falling down?

S - Oh! Now helping you is also a crime?

A - Hey bhagwaan! This bhagadbilla will never understand a thing. I don't know what kind of man I have fallen-

Av - BHABHI!!

Anika and Rudra looked at Avni but Shivaay was looking at Anika. Avni actioned something to Anika and she understood her mistake.

S - What were you saying? What kind of man you-

Av - Bhabhi! Come fast, please. I need to go to college.

A - Yeah yeah! I'm coming.

By that Anika quickly ran from there with Avni.

Shivaay was standing there confused. Rudra walked and stood beside him.

S - (murmuring) What was she saying? What kind of man I have-

R - Fallen in love with.

Shivaay was shocked and looked at Rudra with wide eyes. Rudra grinned at his brother.

S - Shut up, Rudra! Love? That too Anika to me? Have you gone mad?

By saying that, Shivaay went from there.

Kitchen

Gauri and Bhavya were arranging laddus in the plate.

G - Bhavya, do it fast. We don't have much time now.

B - Haa bhabhi.

As they completed arranging the laddus, Anika entered.

A - Everything is done, right?

GB - Haa bhabhi/bhaujai.

A - Gauri, you take this laddu and go. We will come now.

Gauri nodded. She took the plate and was going outside the kitchen. Water was spilled on the floor because of which Gauri slipped and was going to fall when a pair of strong arms protected her from falling down. She closed her eyes because of fear but when she didn't feel anything, she opened her eyes to see Omkara holding her. His one hand wrapped around her waist and one holding the laddu plate in her hand. Unaware of the presence of audience they shared a lovely eyelock.

Anika and Bhavya were looking at them and smiling. That time, Rudra and Avni entered and they were surprised to see the sight in front of them.

Av - (whispering) Bhaiyya, How did you guys even do this?

R - (whispering) What are you talking about?

Av - Arre! Whenever my bhabhis fall in any kind of danger, you three come out of nowhere like a superhero and rescue them.

R - I didn't rescue Bhavya, na? O and Shivaay bhaiyya rescued our bhabhis, not me.

Av - Don't worry. Just wait for a while. It's coming order wise. You are next.

Rudra glared at her.

Avni looked at Omkara and Gauri. They were still in the same position. She looked at Rudra and actioned something. Rudra nodded and turned towards his brother and sister-in-law.

R - O, bhabhi? (no response) bhabhi, O? (no response)

Av - Not like this. It's not gonna work. I will show you.

(shouting) BHAIYYA!! BHABHI!!

Both of them got startled and Gauri was again gonna fall when AniVya held her.

O - (to Avni) Why did you shout like this?

Av - If you both keep staring into each other's eyes without caring about your surrounding, then what should I do?

Omkara and Gauri got embarassed and avoided their gaze.

Shivaay entered the kitchen.

S - What is happening, guys?

Av - Bhaiyya, you three should not only be called Obros, but also Superheroes.

S - What? Are you mad, Avni? Superheroes? Like seriously?

Av - Or what should I say? Whenever my bhabhis go to fall down or if they are in any danger, you guys will come out of nowhere and rescue them. Just like superheroes.

R - But I didn't rescue anyone. So I am an exception.

Av - Arree, don't be sad. You will get a chance now.

She slightly pushed Bhavya and she was going to fall down. Everyone gasped but she didn't fall down because she was caught by her saviour, Rudra.

They looked at each other intently.

Av - See, I told you so. Till now he was standing right next to me and when Bhavya bhabhi went to fall down, he rescued her like a superhero. And we cannot miss the eyelock too.

ShivOm, AniRi and Avni laughed. Their laughter brought Bhavya and Rudra back to reality.

Rudra quickly made her stand properly and looked here and there feeling embarassed.

Av - Now do you have anything to say?

Rudra glared at her. Avni glared back.

Av - (seriously) Why are you looking at me like that? I have said the truth only. Between you three brothers and my bhabhis, there exists one thing - love. Because of that, all these are happening. But not only Rudra, you both are duffers too, who are not understanding all these and cannot see the pain these three poor souls are enduring. Atleast one time. Can't you atleast try for once? You will not get more and more chances everytime. So don't waste the chance you have now, because maybe a time will come where you will not get a chance even to rectify your mistake.

Avni was having tears in her eyes because she loved both her brothers and bhabhis. But she is disappointed by her brothers because they are not understanding the feelings that they had for their wives.

AniRiVya were also having tears feeling bad.

A - Gauri, Bhavya, take the laddu plates and come with me.

RiVya nodded and took the plates. AniRiVya went from there to avoid the tears that were threatening to fall from their eyes. Avni looked at them and felt bad. She looked back at ShivOmRu and said.

Av - I am telling again. Please try to understand them. Stop hurting them and try to get this into your head that there is more into your lives than your ego. And remember one thing, if ever you hurt them again, I am never gonna forgive you.

ShivOmRu looked at Avni shocked. They had never seen Avni like this before. She was supporting her bhabhis like her own sisters.

Avni left from there.

Only ShivOmRu were left. To avoid the awkwardness Shivaay said.

S - Guys, I am going to meet Karan. Bye, see you later.

Shivaay left.

Living room

Avni was ready to go to her college.

A - Bhavya, give me the aarti plate.

Bhavya nodded and gave the Aarti plate to Anika.

Anika did the Aarti. Avni was smiling happily to see the care for her from her bhabhis.

After Aarti, Gauri and Bhavya came forward with the laddu plates.

G - Eat this laddu. Eating sweets before starting a new journey is good.

Gauri fed Avni first and then Bhavya fed her.

Daadi and Tej was also there. Avni took blessings from them.

Av - Okay! Let me go now. Bye bhabhis.

She hugged AniRiVya. Tej and Daadi admired them. Avni left. AniRiVya also went from there to kitchen.

D - I am very happy, Tej. God gave us daughter-in-laws like Anika, Gauri and Bhavya. I just have one more wish that my ShivOmRu and AniRiVya stay together always and forever.

T - Yes Maa. Even I have this wish. But I am worried if ever ShivOmRu themselves will become the reason for losing their partners.

Daadi looked at Tej but didn't say anything because everything Tej said was right and she was also having that fear within her.
