Ruhana agrees to visit Vineet's home for Bulbul's sake. She doesn't like Vineet, and for her, he's the reason that her little one has landed in a trouble. Also, she has not forgotten the bitter meeting she had with him in the cafe. But she lets it go for Bulbul. She reaches Vineet's home and is welcomed by Bulbul. She forwards some gifts to her sister and they share a hug. She asks about the plan and Bulbul looks at her keenly. Ruhana knows that a question is coming her way soon.

"Di, ek baat puchun?" Bulbul asks.

"Han, pucho. Waise bhi tu puche bina reh bhi nahi payegi." Ruhana jokes while Bulbul glares at her.

"Main toh puchungi aur aapko jawab dena padega. Di, aap ACP uncle se gussa kyun ho?" she asks while Ruhana falls silent.

" Bubble, tujhe ye sab jaanne ki zaroorat nahi hai." Ruhana replies.

"Mujhe jaanna hai, Di. Unhone aapko sorry kaha aur wo mera itna ache se khayal rakhte hain. Please aap unse gussa mat ho." Bulbul says holding her hands.

"Guriya, tujhe ye sab samajh nahi aayega. Wo bhi jaante hain ki main kis wajah se naraaz hoon. Aur ek baat! Pehla impression jo unka raha hain, uske baad mujhe unpe bharosa nahi hai. Aur tu kyun in sab mein pad rahi hain? Mujhe Vineet ke baare mein koi baat nahi karni. Main yahan tujhse milne aayi hoon toh tu decide kar tujhe kya karna hai." Ruhana says.

Bulbul assumes that since she got hurt and Vineet and his men could not rescue her from the kidnapping, that is why Ruhana is angry with him. But she doesn't know how badly Vineet treated Ruhana in their first meeting. For Bulbul, her ACP uncle is not at fault and Ruhana is acting weird. She is unable to understand Ruhana's emotions and her implicit actions.

"Di, please. ACP uncle ne aapse sorry bola hai na?" Bulbul says.

"Aur maine unhe maaf nahi kiya. Nahi kar sakti. Ab tujhe mujhse baat karni hai toh kar nai toh main ja rahi hoon." Ruhana says while looking at her little one who makes a face.

"Acha sorry, aap gussa mat ho. Main nahi bolungi. Chalo hum pics click karte hain." she says and clings on her sister.

Bulbul clicks the pictures on her new smartphone and they set to talk. Shamu Kaka serves breakfast to them when Ruhana asks him if she could help him. He's old and she didn't want him to burden him with work.

"Kaka, please mujhe bataiye agar koi madad chahiye. Bulbul toh hai hi aisi....usne nai socha hoga ki ye sara kaam aapko karna padega." Ruhana says politely.

"Koi baat nahi beta. Ye toh mera roz ka kaam hai. Is bachi ke aane se jo ek achi baat hui hai uske aage ye kaam kuch zyada nai hai. Vineet Sahab hasne muskurane lage , aur kya chahiye! Iske aane se toh raunak ho gayi hai ghar mein." Shamu kaka says smearing Bulbul's head.

" Jaanti hun. Lekin kabhi ye aapko pareshan kare toh iske kaan bhi kheench diya kijiye. Bahut shaitan ho gayi hai." Ruhana smiles at the old man.

"Haww! Kaka aisa kyu karenge? Wo mujhse pyar karte hain. Aur mujhe meri pasand ka khana khilaate hain. Bas aap hi aise gussa karti ho." Bulbul makes a face.

"Chup! Kisi ko bhi kuch bhi bol deti hain." Ruhana slaps Bulbul's cheek playfully.

"Kaka bachao." Bulbul hides behind the old man who smiles at the banter between these two.

"Vo tumse milne aayi hain aur tum unhe sata rahi ho? Aise nahi karte hain. Tum jao , apni behen ko bahar le jaao, main khaane ki taiyari karta hoon." the old man says and moves into the kitchen.

Ruhana is touched by his behaviour. He's so caring and on the other hand, there's Vineet, who doesn't want to hear what the other person has to say. That bitter meeting still lies afresh in her mind. The hours pass, and it's almost lunchtime when the sisters realise the time.

Bulbul checks the watch and makes a foul face. Her ACP Uncle is not home yet. She calls him from her phone but he doesn't pick up her call and this dampens her mood. Ruhana notices it and decides to cheer her.

"Wo police officer hain toh zaroori nahi hain na ki jo unhone kaha usi time pe wo aa jayenge." she says.

"But he promised!" Bulbul makes a sad face.

"Agar unhone promise kiya toh wo aa jayenge. Par kaam bhi toh zaroori hain na. I am sure, wo jab free ho jayenge toh he will be back. Par tum udaas rahogi toh wo bhi udaas ho jayenge." Ruhana says convincing her that he might be very busy.

Though, Ruhana doesn't like Vineet. She has a pang in her heart whenever she meets him. But she knows that he's an ardent and brave cop and is very committed to the country. So, she can't help but convince her little one. Bulbul makes a face, but she knows that her ACP uncle is very dedicated to everything that he does.

Meanwhile, Shamu Kaka calls them for lunch and at the same time, the doorbell rings.

*******

Obviously, it's Vineet who has managed to reach home on time and he knows that she'd be very excited to see him. The door opens and he hugs the person but he's astonished to find Bulbul a little away from the door and so he parts the hug and finds Ruhana staring at him. She's unable to react and so they're embarrassed at the moment.

"I'm sorry, mujhe laga Bulbul ne darwaza khola." He replies about him being innocent.

"It's okay! Lekin aur bhi toh log ho sakte hain na, Vineet ji." She says while looking at him.

He downs his gaze, she's right actually. It could be Shamu Kaka too, and he should be within his limits. This time, Ruhana controlled herself not shouting at him. He apologises again while Bulbul glares at him crisscrossing her arms around her chest.

"Not fair uncle, aapne meri hug Di ko dedi. Very bad! Main gussa hoon." She says pretending to be angry.

"Oops! I didn't know. I am sorry!" He pulls his ears cutely apologising.

"This is wrong. Pehle meri hug! Uske baad sochungi ki aapko maaf karun ya nahi." She says pretending cutely.

Vineet glances at her momentarily and then pulls her into an embrace, kissing on top of her head. Bulbul is all touched and melting with his warm touch. She parts the hug and kisses his cheek.

"Thik hain, aapne mujhe hug kiya aur kissie bhi di, isliye, jaiye maine maaf kiya aapko. Aap bhi kya yaad karoge!" She says pretending and begins to laugh.

Vineet laughs along with her and asks her about her day while Ruhana is just a silent spectator in all of this. She doesn't want to indulge with Vineet in anything. She's still not convinced about him and so she decides to distance herself.

She observes Bulbul telling Vineet about her day until now and then something strikes her mind suddenly. She chuckles and picks her phone.

"Let's click some pictures. Yay! Di jaldi aao." She says and opens the camera.

Bulbul clicks some selfies and then asks Vineet to click some pictures. He happily obliges. Bulbul hugs Ruhana clinging to her back and Vineet clicks it. And in the other picture, she hugs Ruhana resting her head on her chest. He clicks a few pictures and then Bulbul calls him and asks a guard to click their pictures. Both Ruhana and Vineet are hesitant but Bulbul pulls them along and makes them click some pictures.

Though she has had an awkward moment with Vineet, she knows this man is caring towards her younger sister. She's unable to believe him but she knows that Bulbul trusts him and it matters to her. Ruhana is lost in her thoughts when Bulbul's voice brings her out of her trance. She's showing her a picture in which both Vineet and Ruhana are standing beside Bulbul and the girl is holding their hands in each of hers. This picture holds Ruhana's heart as well. Bulbul chuckles.

"Pata hai di! Kabhi kabhi toh main sochti hun ki aapki shadi Vinay uncle se nai balki Acp uncle se hoti toh kitna acha hota na.... hum teeno sath rehte aur roz ese maze karte... " Bulbul chuckles but she's unknown of the tension that arises between Ruhana and Vineet.

"Bubble, tujjhe aise thoughts aate kahan se hain? Aur is baare mein hum baat kar chuke hain na!" Ruhana says sternly, reminding her about their conversation about Vineet.

"Di, maine bas aise hi bola." Bulbul looks at her sister.

"Aise kaise, jaise bhi! Mujhe us baare mein koi baat nahi chahiye. Ab chalo lunch karne." Ruhana says and Vineet is confused about the talk between the two ladies.

Bulbul shrugs her shoulders and then finding that her phone's battery is low, she runs to her room to put it on charge. A silent awkwardness prevails between Vineet and Ruhana. Meanwhile, Bulbul also came down and they three have lunch with light chit chats.

Meanwhile, the weather changed and it's quite cloudy. Bulbul chuckles to see the weather change and insisted Vineet to play out in the garden. Ruhana also agrees and the three of them move into the garden of Vineet's bungalow. It is flooded with flowers, and Ruhana smiles at seeing them. Meanwhile, Bulbul brings two badminton rackets and a cock that Vineet got her and demanded Ruhana to play with her.

Ruhana is scared though, she still feels that some wrong might happen and so Bulbul must stay inside. But she lets it go. She excuses herself to use the washroom and walks into the house. Ten minutes later, she comes out and finds Vineet talking on his phone and a sudden, loud thud in the next instant, left Ruhana and Vineet shocked.

To Be Continued.

What shocked Vineet and Ruhana?
