Vineet turned towards Anamika and was left shocked. His parents were standing there along with Anamika. Vineet gulped down in fear. His father shot him a deadly glare.

"Papa aap" he spoke fearfully..

"Haan beta main, aise chauk kyun gaye. He raise his eyebrows. Expect nahi kiya tha" he asked, unknowingly he shook his head negatively. His father (Aarnav) glare him, Vineet immediately said..

"nahi, mera matlab tha kyun nahi.. Main kyun chaukne laga, aapka hi toh ghar hai aap kabhi bhi aa sakte hai" Vineet said correcting his mistake..

His father shook his head and said "wo toh main aa hi sakta hoon, lekin tu yahan kya kar raha hai" he asked narrowing his eyes..

"Ye mera bhi ghar hai Papa" Vineet exclaims making faces.

"wo mujhe bhi pata hai. I mean tu ghar pe kya kar raha hai, tera office nahi hai? He questioned..

Vineet gulped down, what he's gonna answer now? Why he's here? To keep an eye on her.. O god, he will kill him. He came out of his rumination, when his mother snapped her finger..

"kahan kho gaya tu, jawab de tere papa kuch puch rahe hain" she, Kaushalya spoke..

Vineet look here and there thinking what to answer, an idea strike his mind "wo.. Wo.. Tabiyat thik nahi laag rahi thi issliye" he lied and cough fakely..

Kaushalya immediately gave him water, she caressed his back "Haaye mera baccha" she make him drink some water..

Vineet make extra innocent face showing he's not well..

"aap iss se bhi toh puchiye, Ye kyun nahi gayi office" Vineet said eyeing his father..

"kyunki hum aane wale the, issliye. Humne isse pehle hi bata diya tha" his father exclaims..

"huhhhh, mujhe toh nahi bataya" Vineet murmured..

"kya bola" his father asked..

"nahi kuch nahi. Jaiye aap aaram kar lijiye" Vineet spoke..

His parents moved out of the kitchen, Vineet glare Anamika who was standing innocently because of his parents.. For them, she's a sanskari bahu..

He pull her such that she dash with him "kya kar rahe ho" she asked angrily but in a low tone..

"tumne mujhe bata kyun nahi ye dono aa rahe hai" he asked glaring her..

"tumne batane ka mauka nahi diya, subha se toh ladde jaa rahe ho" she fired back..

"oo ho ho, sati savitri, dudh ki dhuli. Main ladd raha tha toh jaise ki tumne toh kuch bola hi nahi" he jerk her..

"main kis khushi mei naa bolu. Bolti hoon tab toh itna ladte ho, na bolti tab toh jeena haram kar dete tum mera" she frown..

"ek baar ye dono chale jaaye yahan se fir batata hoon tumhe jeena haram kisse kehte hain" Vineet said eyeing her

Anamika pointed her finger to him and was about to say when his mother call her..

"aayi Mummy jii" she shouted from the kitchen. Before leaving, she pulled his hairs and run out..

Vineet tried to catch her but she was fast enough and for his bad luck, he can't follow her out.. In anger he kicked on the self, which only hurt him..

…

Outside..

Vineet mother was in temple area, which was in a corner of the hall. Lightning diya.. Anamika moved to her and stood by her side. She too joined her hands, closing her eyes for Kaushalya was doing the same.. After two minutes she open her eyes but her mother in law was still standing with close eyes, Anamika again close her eyes, after fews minutes she again open her eyes, his mother was still standing with close eyes..

"itna kya maang rahi hai mummy jii bhagwan se" Anamika thought..

Now instead of closing her eyes, she kept on looking at her mother in law. After around 30 minutes she open her eyes..

"mummy ji, ho gayi puja" Anamika asked..

"Haan beta, aaj jaldi jaldi kar liya" she spoke, Anamika eyes popped out with this..

"Ye jaldi hai toh der kya hogi inke liye" she thought..

Her trance was broken by her mother in law "beta jara help kar do bag unpack karne mei" she spoke..

"jee mummy jii" Anamika nodded and they marched towards the guest room..

As they enter, they found Vineet Father relaxing on the couch.. He was lying with closed eyes.. Anamika moved towards the bed to arrange it and Kaushalya marched towards the closet to arrange their clothes..

As kaushalya open the door of closet, she left confused..

"Ye kya hai" She spoke loudly..

"kya hua" both Anamika and Aarnav asked in unison..

Instead of replying, she shouted "VINEET"

Anamika and Aarnav were confused, Vineet came running..

"kya hua maa" Vineet asked..

"Ye kya hai" Kaushalya asked pointing to the bag inside the closet..

"Bag hai" Vineet replied, looking at her confusedly..

"wo mujhe bhi pata hai, par tera bag guest room mei kya kar raha hai" She questioned..

Vineet and Anamika glance at each other, Vineet glare her and indicate her to answer the question put by Kaushalya.. She shook her head negatively..

"bolo bhi" Kaushalya said..

"wo apni bahu se pucho" Vineet said eyeing Anamika.. Her jaw dropped..

"bata bahu" Kaushalya questioned her..

"wo.. Wo" Anamika wasn't being able to say, her words struck in her throat..

"wo kya" Aarnav asked

Anamika looked at her father in law and An idea hit her head "Haan, wo..Meine Vineet se bata diya tha na ki aaplog aa rahe hain toh usko aapke saath sona tha papaji, Issliye uska bag idhar hai" She made up a story..

Vineet eyes popped out with this, his jaw dropped. Such a lier she is. Now he can't even say she is lying, it may hurt his parents and moreover they will again ask questions..

"haaye mera beta" Kaushalya hug him emotionally, Vineet faked a smile..

They parted after a moment, Kaushalya turn to Anamika "bahu aache se bed laga do, aaj dono baap - bete saath hi soyenge" she declared..

"jaroor mummy jii" Anamika said, controlling herself from laughing..

Trio (Vineet, Kaushalya and Aarnav) moved out of the room.. While Anamika arrange the room. After arranging, she moved out of the room and the next moment she was left shocked..
