The scene starts from next morning in Arora mansion.

Preeta came from gym and goes to her room to take a shower. Meanwhile others were waiting for her at breakfast table.

Shrishti - Maa hum breakfast baad mein kar lenge, abhi hume office jana hai, der ho rahi hai 😧

Sarla - Nhi tum teeno breakfast kiye bina nhi jaaoge 😕

Sameer - Lekin Sarla aunty..

Sarla looks at Sameer and he meekly says 'Ok'.

Preeta was about to leave her room when she saw a half filled bottle of alcohol lying on her table.

Preeta (in mind) - Ab dekh hi li hai toh thodi pi bhi leti hun, kya farak padta hai 😪

Preeta gulps the liquid a little and keeps the bottle behind the table.

Preeta - Zyada pi li toh chad jaayegi mujhe 🤦‍♀️

She left the room after correcting her outfit. She reached downstairs and saw Sarla holding Shrishti's ears and dragging her to breakfast table. 😂

Preeta smiled at her family.

Preeta (in mind) - Bass meri family aise hi khush rahe, unhe meri wajah se bohot problem jhelni padi hai, mein nhi chahti ab aisa kuch bhi ho 😇

Sarla - Preeta tu bhi chal..

Shrishti (whines) - Dii dekho na maa ko 😩

Preeta - Chhod dijiye, dard ho raha hoga usko 😌

Sarla left her ear and Shrishti rubs her ear.

Rishi - Aa jaa preeta, naashta karke jaa 😅

Preeta - Nhi bhai meri meeting hai foreign investors ke saath 😅

Sarla - Thoda toh kha le 😟

Shrishti - Nhi mumma hume der ho rahi hai hum pakka bahar se kuch kha lenge 😌

Shrishmeer and Preeta hugs Sarla and she hugged them back.

Preeta - Bye maa 😁

They broke the hug and turned to go when Sarla says.

Sarla - Ruko 😧

Trio turned and got confused.

Sarla - Mujhe sharaab ki badbu kyu aa rahi hai? 😳

Preeta widens her eyes and quickly closed her mouth and looked at Shrishti.

Shrishmeer looked at Preeta and she looks away. 😂

Sarla - Kisne pi rakhi hai tum teeno mein se? 🧐

Shrishti pointed at Preeta, Sameer pointed at Shrishti and Preeta pointed at Shrishti. 😜

Sarla glares Shrishti and says.

Sarla - Shrishti tu.. 😤

Shrishti - Nhi maa meine nhi dii ne.

Preeta - Kya dii, meine kya kiya? (innocently to Sarla) maa meine kuch nhi kiya 🥺

Sarla - Mein jaanti hu beta tu toh mera achha baccha hai (to Shrishti) yahi hai badmaash 😤

Shrishti quickly nodded in no.

Sarla - Biji ke saath cough syrup mein dono kya daal kar peete the sab patah hai mujhe, biji chandigarh kya chali gayi, tune peena shuru kar diya wapas se 😡

Shrishti - Nhi maa dii..

Sarla - Chup sab jaanti hu mein, Preeta toh kabhi sharaab ko haath bhi nhi lagayegi (Preeta smiles in relief) lekin tu, aaja aaj toh teri khair nhi 😤

Sarla dragged Shrishti and she looks at Preeta.

Preeta made faces and mouths 'Please'. Shrishti huffs and goes with Sarla. 😂

Sameer bursts out laughing and asked for hi fi to Preeta. She gave and smilingly shook her head.

Sameer - Bhai hum dono jaa rahe hai office, shrishti ko sambhaal lena zara 🤣

Rishi nodded while chuckling and Preeta, Sameer left to office.

Afternoon

Preeta and Sameer were forcefully called by Sarla to have lunch with them. Shrishti was pouting at Preeta.

Rishi and Rishabh were at office, Kajal was in hospital, kids were in school and Sidneet in college.

PreeShti started whispering.

Preeta (whispers) - Sorry na, ab apni dii se itni naraz mat ho jaa 🥺

Shrishti (whispers) - Dii aapki wajah se maa ne mujhe bohot sunaya hai aaj 🥲

Preeta mouthed 'Sorry' and Shrishti looked away.

Preeta - Kya karu jisse tu mujhe maaf karde 😟

Shrishti - Kal mein aapki Lambo le kar jaaungi aur aap mujhe nhi rokoge 😏

Preeta widens her eyes and nods in yes.

Shrishti - Sacchi? I love you dii 😘

Shrishti hugged her and Preeta smiles. Karan was sadly looking at both the sisters.

Some tears formed in his eyes and he quickly wipes them before anyone could notice.

Servants served everyone and started having lunch.

Shrishti - Dii aaj ki meeting kaisi gayi? 😌

Preeta - Perfect 😉

Sameer - Shrishti tumne aaj bohot kuch miss kardiya 😏

Shrishti - Kya batao na mujhe 🤩

Preeta - Sameer no 😐

Shrishti - Aisa kya kar rahe ho, batao na ☹️

Sameer - Arey woh investors aaye the na.. 😂

Shrishti - Ha toh unka kya? 🧐

Sameer - Unn mein se ek investor ne aaj sabke saamne.. 😧

Preeta - Nhi sameer tum kuch nhi bologe 😑

Karan - Nhi sammy tu bol 😯

Sameer - Mein aapse baat nhi kar raha toh aap please bich mein kuch mat boliye 😒

Karan felt bad and he shuts his mouth.

Kareena - Sameer 😠

Sameer - Aap bhi chup rahiye 😒

Shrishti - Sammy inn sabko chhodo tum batao kya hua, ab curiosity badh rahi hai meri 😩

Sameer - Ha toh unn mein se ek investor ne sabke saamne preeta dii ko propose kiya 🤩

Shrishti widens her eyes and looked at Preeta who didn't looked at her.

Shrishti - What? 😱

Sameer - Ha aur woh bhi girlfriend bann ne ke liye nhi, sidha shaadi ke liye, ring bhi le kar aaya tha woh😛

Karan stood up from his seat and shouts.

Karan - What? 🤯 (to Preeta) don't tell me ki tumne haan keh diya 😰

Preeta completely ignored him and started chewing her food. Karan pouts and sat on his chair.

Shrishti - Dii ka javaab kya tha?

Sameer - Mana kar diya unhone 😣

Shrishti - Kya dii? Atleast gf bann ne ke liye toh maan jaate, agar banda hot and handsome hai toh mana kyu karna hai aapko? 🥱

Preeta - I am not interested 😒

Karan smiles widely at her.

Karan - Good job babydoll 😍

Shrishmeer glares him and Preeta narrows her eyes at him.

Karan - Ab tum dono aise ghuro mat mujhe (to Preeta) tum aise mat dekho babydoll dubara pyaar ho jaayega mujhse 🥰

Preeta (murmurs) - Ye kabhi bhi nhi sudhar sakta 😒

Just then Pihu and Aayush enters the house.

Aayush (to Shrishti) - Haww maasi aapne mere bina khana shuru kar diya 🥺

Shrishti - Sorry maasi se galti hogayi 😧

Aayush (to Preeta) - Aapne bhi? ☹️

Preeta - Sorry aayu 😧

Aayush - Aap dono ko punishment milegi 😌

PreeShti looked at each other and then at Aayush.

Shrishti - Chhutku tum hume punishment doge? 😧

Aayush - Don't call me chhutku, aur ha mein aap dono ko punishment dunga, aap dono ko mujhe apne haathon se khana khilana hoga 😛

Shrishti - Ok lekin pehle fresh ho kar aao 😌

Aayush nodded and left to his room, Pihu left to her room without saying anything.

Sameer - Aayush kitna cute hai na?

Shrishti - Bohot, I guess Kajal pe gaya hai 🤪

Sameer (whispers) - Humare bacche bhi itne cute honge 🤭

Shrishti widens her eyes and smacked his leg under the table. 😂

Sameer smiles at her.

Aayush and Pihu returned from their room after changing into casuals.

Aayush sat on Preeta's lap and smiles at her.

Preeta - Arey yahan kyu baith gaye aayu? 😳

Aayush - Mujhe aapke saath baithkar khana tha maasi 🤪

Aayush kissed her cheek and gave her a toothy smile. Preeta chuckles and ruffles his hairs.

Shrishti - Iss maasi ko koi pyaar hi nhi karta 😩

Aayush got up from Preeta's lap and sat on Shrishti's and kissed her cheek.

Aayush - Aayu loves you bohot saara 😍

Shrishti - Aww (ruffles his hairs) maasi too loves you bohot saara 🥰

Shrishti kissed his cheek and Aayush smiles.

Pihu slowly goes towards Karan and sat beside him and started eating. Karan sadly looks at her.

Shrishti was feeding Aayush with her hand and he was making faces.

Aayush - Lambu maasi mujhe ye sabzi nhi pasand 🥴

Shrishti - Khaani padegi warna tumhari mumma mujhe maaregi😒

Preeta - Ha aayu fatafat ye sabzi khaa lo phir mein na.. Mein tumhe ek gift dungi 🤔

Aayush - Konsi gift? 🤩

Preeta - Pehle sabzi 😐

Aayush completed eating with others and looks at Preeta.

Preeta goes to kitchen and brings a big chocolate for him. Aayush squealed in joy and hugged her.

Preeta - Mummy ko..

Aayush - Nhi patah chalega 😜

Preeta nods and Aayush started eating his chocolate. He saw Pihu who was looking down sadly.

He goes towards her and sat beside her.

Aayush - Chocolate khaaogi? 😇

Pihu looked up and goes towards the garden without saying anything.

Shrishti (whispers) - Pihu ko kya hua? 😟

Preeta widens her eyes in realisation.

Preeta (whispers) - Mein dekhti hu

Preeta acted to go to garage but took a left and goes to garden. She saw Pihu quietly sobbing and her heart clenched at the sight. 💔

Pihu was sitting on bench and Preeta sat besides her. Pihu looked up and saw her mother looking at her.

Preeta pulled out a big chocolate and kept it on Pihu's lap without saying anything. 💕

Pihu widens her eyes and a huge smile appeared on her face. Preeta smiles at her.

Pihu - Ye mere liye hai? 🤩

Preeta nodded in yes and Pihu quickly hugged her.

Pihu - Thank you mumma 🥰

Preeta's heart melted and she closed her eyes to feel her baby's hug. Pihu broke the hug and smiles at her.

Karan who was looking at them from safe distance, smiles at them and closed his eyes to control his tears. He opened them and wipes tears from corner of his eyes and walked towards them.

Karan - Haww pihu itni badi chocolate? 😳

Pihu looked at Karan. Preeta looked at him and looked away.

Pihu - Ha papa 🤩

Karan - Mere saath chocolate share karoge na aap? 🥺

Pihu - Nahi 🤭

Preeta internally smiles but didn't show it on her face.

Karan - Kyu nhi? ☹️

Pihu - Ye chocolate sirf meri hai, mumma ne mujhe di hai, sirf mein khaaungi 😋

Pihu ran inside the house and Preeta stood up from bench correcting her blazer.

Karan - Pr.. Ms. Arora 😇

Preeta looked at him.

Karan - Thank you pihu ke chehre par smile laane ke liye 😁

Preeta didn't say anything and left inside the house. Pihu and Aayush were in playing with games in playroom.

Others were sitting on sofa.

Janki - Arey behen ji woh wala show lagaaiye na 🧐

Sarla - Konsa wala? 🤨

Janki - Jismein heroine ki maa asli villain hoti hai, jisne hero ki maa ko marva diya tha aur phir uski maa punarjanm le kar wapas aati hai apna badla lene 🤯

Sarla - Janki tu bade hi faaltu shows dekhne lagi hai 😑

Kareena - Huh cheap middle class aur unki cheap harakatein 😒

Preeta who was passing through hall heard it and turned. She came towards them and looked at Kareena.

Sonakshi - Aise kya dekh rahi ho Kareena aunty ko 🧐

Preeta - Meine tumse kuch kaha? Nhi na toh kyu bol rahi ho? 😒

Janki - Rehn de puttar ye chudail aisi hi hai 😑

Preeta smirks and sat besides Sarla.

Preeta - Maa aapko koi kuch bhi bole toh mujhe bolna mein unhe..

Kareena - Kya karogi tum? Kar hi kya sakti ho tum?

Karan - Bua aap chup rahengi please 😒

Kareena - Karan tum mujhe chup rehne ko kyu keh rahe ho? Meine kuch galat bola kya? Harr wakt ye preeta hume dhamki deti rehti hai aur darati hai 😤

Preeta (sarcasm) - Aap kahan kuch galat bolti hai Kareena ji, aap toh sabse sahi bolti hai 😪

Sonakshi - Hum sahi hi hote hai aur tum galat 😤

Shrishti - Oye bina dimaag wali chudail chup raho tum meri dii ko pareshaan mat karo 😤

Sonakshi - Arey kisine pareshaan karke rakha hai toh woh tumhari behen hai 😠

Shrishti - Itni hi pareshaani hai toh jao niklo iss ghar se, kyu yahan luthras ki tarah bhikhari bann kar padi hui ho 😑

Sameer - Ha jao tum yahan se waise bhi tumhara chehra dekh kar din kharab ho jaata hai 😣

Kareena (shouts) - Sameer 😡

Shrishti - Ms. Kareena Luthra aap Sammy par mat chillaiye, apni favorite Sonakshi ko samjhaiye 😒

Preeta (in mind) - Phirse shuru hogaya 🤦‍♀️

Sameer (to Sonakshi) - By the way tumhari woh partner kahan hai, Sherlyn? Jao uske saath raho 😑

Sonakshi (in mind) - Sherlyn toh prithvi se milne gayi hai aage ka plan sochne 🙄

Preeta looked at her mobile as she got a notification and she smirked.

Kareena - Woh apni mom se milne gayi hai 😕 (to Preeta) aur preeta woh tumse bohot achhi hai, ek ideal bahu hai, humari itni izzat karti hai, aur ha humari tarah high class se belong karti hai

Rakhi - Didi aap please kuch mat boliye 😖

Bani - Rakhi tu Kareena ko kyu bol rahi hai bolna toh tujhe iss shrishti ko chahiye 🙃

Preeta - Sherlyn wakai apni mom se milne gayi hai? 🤨

Bani - Ha kyu tumhe koi shak hai?

Preeta - Shak nhi yakeen hai 😏

Just then Sherlyn enters. Everyone was looking at her.

Sherlyn - Aap sab mujhe kyu dekh rahe hai? 😧

Preeta - Tum kahan gayi thi? 🧐

Sherlyn - Tumse matlab

Preeta - Tum mere ghar mein rehti ho, mujhe patah hona chahiye ki kon kahan jaata hai 🤨

Sherlyn - Apni mom se milne gayi thi 😒

Preeta - Itni jaldi wapas bhi aa gayi tum? Nice 😏
