Radhika reached Bird Song....and found Nandini in Piyali's cabin...Samrat calls Radhika for a coffee she joins him...Samrat ; ''Radhika I know you are aware of my past with Nandini...then why didn't you speak that day about my relationship''

Radhika; '' Sam had already suffered a heart break...if I had disclosed your past....she would have taken some drastic step...plus that day I had no proof against Nandini di''

Samrat; ''Do you have now....or I should believe on what Sam says''

Radhika smiled; ''after going through so much do you really think I care what you or someone else think about me....but if you want to know the truth....please throw a party to celebrate my marriage''

Samrat; ''Why a party''

Radhika; ''Sam lost everything on day of celebration...I will give her back everything on the another celebration...everyone will have their answers''

Samrat leaves...Radhika's POV 'before that I need to know how deep...Arjun Sir is involved ...if he is not.....then innocent should not be punished'

Nandini watched Radhika talking to Samrat and goes to her after Samrat leaves; ''What was Samrat asking''

Radhika smirks; ''He was thanking me to save his daughter...and was telling me that he has some friends in police who could help us find the men you hired to kill Sam and other proofs against you''

Nandinia; ''Don't act smart...if you utter a word....I can still kill Sam...and you too...take this as a warning...It would cloud if you silently sign those divorce papers and leave from our life''

Radhika folds her arms to chest; ''Do whatever you like...I will pull the mask off your face wait and watch''

Nandini walked of all angry...and Radhika decided to go to Rana's house to check once again...she knew Nandini was leaving for Panchagani... Rana will definitely accompany her...she can check in Rana's house in his absence ...she knew how to get in...as she escaped from there last time...

Neil met his friend and gave him the contacts he found from Nandini's place...and asked him to find the details and whereabouts all these guys soon...Sam was restless she called Arjun...he answered; ''Yes Sam''

Sam; ''Arjun I want to marry you soon....as soon as possible''

Arjun; ''Sam even I want to marry you...don't worry will do something within a week....Sam I really want to spend my life with you''

Sam; ''I love you Arjun'' Radhika who heard Arjun...felt disgusted...she unlocked the door and entered the house...she walked directly to the room ...Arjun follows her ...Arjun entered his room and watched Radhika pulling her clothes out...it was daily habit for Radhika to bath after office...and always before Arjun as Arjun took lot of time...she went inside the wash room...but something caught Arjun's eyes ...there were few wire pieces on the floor near the washroom... . Arjun felt something fishy...he started banging the door...''Radhika come out don't touch anything''

Radhika; ''don't worry I don't prefer male products ....I am not going to touch your soap...I will use mine...gentle one''

Arjun pulls his hair; ''Radhika just come out now...it's an emergency''

Radhika laughs; ''Sir even if it's an emergency I am not coming out before bathing....why do you keep eating bad things and then all this yuck...go use your sister's washroom...if I allow you now...how will I bath in foul smell''

Arjun all irritated; ''Come out or I will break the door''

Radhika looks at herself ; ''you won't ... Sir ...pls don't do this''

Arjun with all the strength kicked the door open...he found a live wire...touching the tap...and then looked around to find Radhika half dressed...in a corner shocked ....Arjun pulled her in a hug; ''Are you fine...Radhika why can't you look around...see there is a wire in the bucket...what if you would have touched it...what would I do''

Radhika hugged Arjun back tightly to calm him ''Sir I am fine don't worry....Arjun tighten his grip completely burying his face in her neck...Radhika closed her eyes to live the moment they stood there for sometime...Radhika realised her state and pulled herself out of Arjun's arms and walked ...

Radhika 's POV; 'Nandini di this was your last chance...this means Arjun Sir is not aware of your plans....I will do the final confirmation today...'

Arjun's POV; 'was this intentional...who would harm her?...thank God she is fine...'

Radhika quickly got ready and Arjun watched her leaving... he followed her...and Radhika noticed that...she intentionally made herself visible to him and enters Rana's house...a Arjun followed her; ''Stop Radhika...this is called as theft and it's a crime''

Radhika; ''punishing an innocent is also a crime...and pretending to love someone is worst''

Arjun turns stone; ''What are you doing here...and how did you enter here''

Radhika; ''because last time I was held captive here...and I escaped using my brain''

Arjun; ''Really who did that and how did you escape''

Radhika walked to the store room and showed him the secret passage; ''and who?.. your sister''

Arjun walked dangerously towards her...'' Not a word against nandu...or''

Radhika; ''Or what...you will kill me too the way you planned to kill Sam on the first night of marriage...''

Arjun pulled her up; '' I never wanted to or planned to kill Sam...but I feel you are cooking up the story because you fell in love with me''

Radhika; ''This is a lie...and it will never happen''

Arjun smiled leaned and brushed his cheeks against Radhika's...she shivered...Arjun whispered; ''an hour back you stood in my arms...and now why are you so nervous ...why is you heart racing''

Radhika stammers; ''t..t..that's your opinion'' Arjun blew warm breath over her neck and cheeks...making Radhika retrieve...Arjun moved and locked her to wall...and brushed his knuckles on her face...Arjun; ''So you were saying that....I don't affect you?''

Radhika; ''No Sir''

Arjun being so close to Radhika... with great difficulty controled his heart and moved back....walking away from her...he reaches the door; ''it's late..come ''

Radhika POV; 'my doubt is cleared...Arjun Sir is innocent''

Arjun's POV 'Is Radhika right...did someone kidnap her...otherwise how did she know about...Rana's house...and the secret passage which even I didn't knew'

Nandini was about to enter her house when she got a call, Man on the other side ;'' Radhika took Arjun to Rana's house .. guess he knows of the secret passage and I saw one electrician going in your house....'' Nandini got irritated...she tells him something...

Arjun was supervising electrician work when the same man who spoke to Nandini ...knocks the door...Arjun answers ; ''who are you''

Man; ''Sir Nandini ji had called me in the morning ... to mend and to check all the wiring of the house ...as the geyser of her room was out due to short circuit...'' Arjun slaped him tight...leaving the man shocked

Arjun; ''Who made you an electrician...your carelessness would have killed my wife...get lost before I kill you''

The man ran for his life ...radhika who heard this felt good... Arjun turned and found Radhika looking at him with a smile...Arjun walked to Radhika but she didn't move...he came close to her cupped her face from one hand...Arjun-Radhika kept watching each other without breaking their eye lock...Arjun moved closer...and leaned to kiss Radhika...she closed her eyes... he smiled looking at her face and her lips ...he moved closer ...but they are brought out of their dream land ...when the electrician calls Arjun...Radhika all embarrassed moved away ...but Arjun held her arm...Radhika twisted her arm and pleaded Arjun to leave...he leaft her arm ....Arjun little disappointed cursed electrician

Radhika stood with her back on kitchen wall...calming her breath ...her POV; 'No I can't do this...Arjun Sir belongs to Sam...I anyways have to leave'

Sam was standing by the window ...she recalled all her moments spend with Radhika...their moving in together convincing Mala to let Radhika stay their having fun together...Bonnie accusing Radhika...but She and Neil trusting her ...Radhika helping her in mending her relationship with Neil and then with Arjun...then Radhika's marriage getting cancelled ...'A' written on Radhika's mehendi....Arjun saving Radhika and fighting Saral for her...Sam slapping Radhika and then Arjun marrying Radhika....Neil's words echo in her head...'Arjun is after Radhika...she is running from him'

Sam's POV; 'Arjun's care for Radhika was evident every time...he pushed her to break her marriage with Saral...stopped her marriage... helped her family ...and was again ready to fight Saral...when Saral pointed at Radhika's character ...he followed Radhika that day when she left crying from office...his dance with Radhika in Panchagani...his eyes never left Radhika...why ?... Is Neil right? But how do I find the truth..

God please guide me

Sam walked into Samrat's study and found him reading... Sam walked to him; ''Pa need to talk and its important''

Samrat; ''Yes bachhu tell me ''

Sam; ''Why did you say that Radhika might have saved me ?''

Samarat little surprised composed himself; ''I felt it because I knew Nandini from the past...she is a selfish kind of a person...and last time I made her leave Bird Song...so had a feeling that she came for a revenge''

Sam made a weired face; ''Revenge??? For firing her....Pa either you are thinking too much or you are hiding something...whatever it is please speak up''

Samrat; ''Sam...I have a past you might hate me for that...I don't know how to tell you...''

Sam was too anxious; ''Pa tell me all that later....is Radhika innocent according to you ....just answer this''

Samrat; ''yes I think so''

Sam rubbed her forehead out of tension....she decided to call Neil...but Neil's no. was busy....he was busy talking to radhika...

Radhika; ''Neil....Arjun Sir is not aware of Nandini's plan of murdering Sam....he saved me today...she had planned to hurt me ''

Neil was shocked; ''Chashni...are you fine...listen till we solve this....you will stay with me''

Radhika; ''Neil...I am Arjun Sir's wife.... And till we prove our point...I should stay here''

Neil got frustrated; ''Ok fine....promise me once all this ends you will come with me''

Radhika smiled; ''I promise I will come with you Neil'' Arjun who came to terrace looking for Radhika...only heard her last sentence....Arjun's eyes started pouring he was losing his control....Radhika was still talking to Neil Arjun snatched her phone and smashed it on the floor....Radhika was shocked....she looked at Arjun with a terrified expression...'' Sir ...why did you break my phone''

Arjun did not answer her he just gave her one angry look and walked off...Radhika still wanted to speak to Neil but now she had to wait till morning....Neil on the other hand got worried...Radhika call got abruptly disconnected and now her phone was not reachable...Radhika trusted Arjun but Neil couldn't...he decided to check on her...it was around 11 PM... Radhika was cleaning the kitchen and Arjun was busy on his laptop...when they heard the door bell...Arjun answered...but his expression turned grave looking at Neil...Neil who was no less ignored him and called out for Radhika; ''Chashni...come out''

Radhika came out and was shocked to find Neil & Arjun infront of each other...she quickly moved to door..'' Neil....at this time .. what happened...''

Neil did not move his gaze from Arjun but answered Radhika; '' Chashni can we talk for a minute'' Radhika walked towards the door but Arjun pulled her towards him with all his strength...her body collided with Arjun due to the force...he locked her to his body firmly .Arjun spoke...''My wife will not speak to you at this hour...leave now''

Neil; '' Mark my words Arjun Mehra...you have hurt everyone enough ...if you hurt Chashni or Sam....I will ruin you bad'' Neil watched the way Arjun was holding Radhika...she winced in pain...Neil just banged his fist on the wall and left....Neil POV; ''Have to end this...and free Chashni...she has faced a lot because of all this''

Arjun locked the door...but kept holding Radhika....she twisted and winced...tears had started following through her eyes; ''Sir you are hurting me...please let me go''

Arjun took her to the room...and locked it ...Arjun pushed Radhika to the bed and locked her under his body...holding her wrists ....Radhika was now terrified...Arjun face had anger ... pain....but slowly it turned into sadness he left her wrist and intertwined his fingers with hers....Arjun gently lowered his head and touched Radhika's forehead with his ... and whispered...''Why can't you understand ...it hurts ...its killing me...''

Radhika stopped struggling she innocently responded; ''Sir I know ...doing all this with Sam is hurting you...you are a good man...Sir I don't want to hurt you...just want to prove that I am true'' Arjun smiled at her words and planted a chaste and long kiss on her forehead...he caressed her head and softly spoke; ''Sleep Radhika...I will sleep in the hall'' Arjun picked his pillow and left the room...Radhika got up and touched her forehead where he kissed...She just culred her body and threw herself on the bed...her heart pained ...

Neil called Samrat ; ''Samrat Sir you will give the party for celebrating Arjun Radhika's wedding this Friday itself...no more delay''
