Like Kalyani told, the next day, she along with Raj, Nyonika, Manik , Shekhar ,Nandini, and Ashok Dixit's family went to Sonakshi's home to ask Sonakshi's hand in marriage for Dev.

Sharmila and Rajeev who was already informed by Kalyani about their visit are eagerly waiting for them..

Sharmila and Rajeev when they came to know about Dev and Sonakshi's love became very happy. Since Sharmila and Rajeev alreadly liked Dev very much, they agreed for their marriage without any hesitation and fear.

Sharmila happily to Ashok :  "Bhaisahab...My daughter should be very lucky to get Dev as her husband..He thinks very responsible at this very young age..If  your son had not helped us that night, we would have suffered a lot by keeping a young girl with us that night without any accomodation.."

Ashok and Anupama proudly looked at their son hearing this.

Sharmila to Dev  :  "Dev! Shall I tell you one thing...You should not mistake me"

Dev smilingly  :  "No mummyji tell me...I will not at all think wrong about you"

Hearing mummyji from Dev now itself, Sharmila became happy.

Sharmila  :  "Dev! I had not been afraid in my life for anything except that night..Though you provided us with the accomodation, I was very afraid thinking about you itself..We cannot believe anyone these days...That's the reason for my fear...That's why I thought that you are faking your help and might disturb my daughter...That night Rajeev and I were afraid and didn't sleep whole night.We felt relieved only in the morning."

Sharmila worriedly continued  :  "Dev! I know it's wrong to doubt someone who helped us..But I am a mother right.. So only I was afraid a lot...I thought that when I happened to see you again, I should apologize for doubting you...Now I saw you...Forgive me Dev"

Dev smilingly  :  "Mummyji...Who am I to forgive you?..Whoever may be in that place will think like that only. All that you thought that day are happening only these days...I was a stranger to you that day..So fear will come automatically..For that why are you apologising mummyji? Hereafter please don't apologize to me and make me feel embarrassed"

Sharmila panicked  :  "Dev...Why are you ( hindi - aap)requesting me now?"

Dev chuckled  :  "What is this Mummyji? You are elder to me..But then why are you calling me with "aap"?"

Sharmila smilingly :  "Why not? You are my Damaadji now"

Dev is about to say something but Manik interrupted them..

Manik irritated  :  "Enough Dev...I can't bear it... What is happening here? Dadi! Did you brought us here for seeing this? I can't bear it Dadi...If this filmy scene continues I will get angry"

Dev chuckled  :  "What happened Manik?"

Manik irritated  :  "Dev! Did you forget for what we came here? Sasu mom and damaadji are putting over scene...Respect in heart is enough for life"

Rajeev teasingly :  "Manik! I think you are jealous of my damaadji..You tell me first...Have you ever helped someone?"

Shekhar smilingly  :  "Why not? My damaadji only helped me to unite with my daughter...I know how he struggled to do this"

Manik whinned  :  "Mamu...Now why are you calling me with respect? Please don't call me like that"

Shekhar chuckled  :  "But you are going to marry my daughter damaadji"

Manik who is about to reply saw Dev's angry face now, smiled sheepishly  and started to divert the topic.

Manik smilingly :  "Dadi! Don't look here and there and concentrate on our work...See the girl who we came to see...She is looking very tired"

Sona sadly :  "Yes Nani...I am very tired..Speak and decide fastly"

Manik chuckled  :  "See what happened now? The girl itself is asking you decide fastly without any shyness...But we are not responsible enough"

Kalyani  :  "What you are saying is right Manik. Anupama! You start to talk...Both Dev and Sonakshi like each other...Are you all happy with it? Are you happy my son?"

Ashok happily  : " I like Sonakshi very much...I am very happy to get my son married to Sonakshi"

Dev and Sonakshi exchanged their happiness with each other through their eyes..

Anupama happily kept flowers on Sonakshi's hair and kissed her forehead.

Dev longingly looked at this scene..

Dev like a child  :  "Mom! For me?"

Anupama felt embarrassed at Dev's question.

Anupama with fake anger  :  "What you want now Dev?"

Dev sheepishly  :  "That..that..haan I want to talk to Sonakshi...Usually girl and boy will go and talk privately..So I too..."

Manik teasingly  :  "Mr.Dev.. What you are saying is right only..But it is only applicable to those who see their soulmates for the first time..Not for us"

Dev gave a sheepish look to Manik

Dev worriedly  :  "Ok.Is any other formalities are left?"

Sharmila chuckled  :  "It's there..Lunch..All please come to the dining table"

Kalyani's Village.

As per Kalyani's order all the servants are cleaning their farm house in hurry and the celebrations for Nandini's birthday is going on in full swing."

Kalyani came to that village two days before itself and is making preparation for the accomodation facility for her family members.

Raj and Rajeev due to their respective works told that they would come the previous day only..

Rest of them decided to start today..Sahil who told that he would come with his father Rajeev is forced by Manik to accompany them.

Sahil irritatedly  :  "You all are couples now..But I am single..Why should I accompany you people?"

Manik chuckled  : "That's your fate Sahil...Are you a human being? Why you went to college and all? Can't you attract atleast one girl? I felt disgusting to call you my cousin"

Sahil irritatedly  :  "Manik! You keep quiet...Don't you want my well being? My college girls are so mischievous..See our Dev...He escaped from our college girls but struck with this naughty girl"

Dev laughed at Sonakshi while Sonakshi hit her brother Sahil.

Sona angrily  :  "Whom you are calling as naughty? You are teasing me right? See one day...You will get only a demon as your wife...That day I will laugh at you like this..You are going to cry"

Sharmila who happened to come there hearing Sona's cursings and hit her back.

Sharmila angrily  : "Why are you thinking like this? Why are you cursing him? For my son's good nature surely he will get a good wife who will look like an angel...That time you will keep finger on your lips"

Sahil teasingly  :  "Thank you so much mom..This Sona became so arrogant"

Sona teasingly  :  "Ohh..So you are going to be angel's husband...Mom! Angel is not suited for our family..She will fly and come and separate your son from you..Then your son will not be yours"

All laughed at Sahil hearing this and Sharmila too accompanied them in their laughter..

Sahil teasingly :  "Dev...See how she is talkative? How you struck to this talkative girl? I am feeling pity looking at your situation..You still have time Dev. Do whatever but escape from her"

Dev chuckled  : "Yeah Sahil..I am somewhat afraid only...If you have any idea please tell me"

Hearing this, Sonakshi keeping her hands on his waist glared at Dev.

Dev fakely  :  "Sahil! I am so scared...See your sister is glaring me"

Sona  angrily :  "Dev! You too joined him right? I will deal you in my way"

Saying this she started to see her mobile.

Manik teasingly  :  "Bua ! Is there no girl in Rajeev Mamu's distant relatives..See how our Sahil is getting irritated...If someone is there, please do some arrangement for Sahil too"

Sharmila chuckled  :  "There are two to three girls Manik..But they all are married now..Now some are there who are kids..No one is there for our Sahil..We have to search for him outside only...Someone might had already born for my Sahil...May be we will meet her in our visit to village too...Who knows"

Dev and Manik jointly teased  :   "Ohhhho"

Sahil gave a shy smile to them.

Dev smilingly  :  "Mummyji...It seems you are already on track...Ok..ok But you cannot find a girl who is a beautiful demon like my Sonakshi"

Saying this Dev hold Sonakshi's hands who is sitting in the car.

Sharmila smiled and went away from them to carry on their works.

Sona angrily :  "Enough of your buttering ..That too you are mentioning me as demon in your buttering right? Am I a demon for you? Are you scared of me? My own sibiling is a traitor for me...But you are listening to him and wanted to escape from me...If you are even thinking like that, I will kill you. Leave from my hand"

Saying this Sonakshi removed my hand from Dev's hold.

Sona angrily  :  "If you talk to me hereafter, I will  kill you"

Sonakshi made faces and went away while Dev smiled at her.

Manik teasingly :  "Dev..! I can understand your idea very well...You are very clever Dev"

Dev chuckled  : "Why you too are doing this Manik? She is so angry on me now...All because of my idiot brother in law...All because of him...He trapped me too...See how is she is angry one me?"

Manik teasingly :  "Don't put over scene Dev...I can understand you very well...Go...Go and console her...Start your work"

Dev innocently  :  "Okay Manik..I will do as you say...You all get ready..I will come with my darling"

Sahil pissed off :  "Is this a work to be done? You are making her angry and then consoling her...For this only I am not  in love with anyone"

Manik irritated  :  "Are you a human? You are seeing all this as a trouble! You are mad..We have happiness in this....If our loved ones are angry on us...there will be lot of happiness in consoling them like a baby lovingly...Why will you understand all this? You are a saint who went to college only for study...I feel embarrassed to call you my cousin. Get lost"

Nandini came towards Manik and Sahil...But only Sahil saw her and Nandini could see only Manik's back..

Sahil signed her to keep quiet..

Sahil in surprise :  "So you went to college for seeing  girls only right?"

Manik smilingly  :  "Of course Sahil..Is there any doubt in that? Okay don't talk too much and go and get ready...After going to village, if you have any doubt in trapping girls, ask me...I am an expert in that"

Sahil teasingly  :  "Ohh..Okay Manikji..I will ask your advice..See behind you..Nandini too wants some advice it seems"

Manik turned and stunned to see Nandini keeping her hands on waist  glaring Manik..

Sahil laughingly  :  "Okay Manikji...You console your baby..I have some work..I will go now"

Manik pleadingly  :  "Nandu...Nandu...Please listen to me baby..Please..."

Nandini ignoring Manik's pleadings went away. Manik followed her.

......................................................

That night, all started to leave for the village.

Nyonika, Sharmila, Anupama and Ashok took one car...Shekhar took the responsibility to drive the car. Sahil panicked to hear this.

Sahil  :  "Mausaji ..You please be seated..I will drive"

Shekhar :  "Why Sahil? You come with them...Manik and Dev's car..."

Sahil in mind voice  :  "Mausaji...They all are lovers...I am single...I will become mad if I come with them..Please understand Mausaji"

Sahil whinned  :  "Mausaji! I am comfortable with this car only...I am not used to drive that car"

Shekhar chuckled :  "Okay Sahil...You drive this car..I will do one thing..I will come in Manik's car..That car have space too"

Sahil shouted :  "Mausaji...I came to drive to this car only because of you...I thought If I came with you, I will get a good company to talk and drive...So only"

Shekhar gave an unbelievable look to Sahil.

Sahil whinned  :  "What I am saying is true only Mausaji...Believe me"

Sahil whispered in Shekhar's ears  :  "See there mausaji..All are old people..you and I are only young..Entertaining type too...I will not be tired if I keep talking to you..Like that only Dev told"

Shekhar laughed  :  "Ohh...saying this they all ousted you"

Sahil sadly  : "Yes Mausaji"

Shekhar laughed and patted his shoulder..

Shekhar  : "You seem to be a perfect brother in law for both Manik and Dev"

Sahil sheepishly  :  "Yes..Mausaji...You understood it very soon"

By this time, Manik somehow consoled Nandini..But Dev failed to do it.

Manik sat in the back seat of the car..

Manik :  "Dev ! You drive for some time...Then I will drive"

Dev  :  "Hmm okay"

As soon as Dev said this, Sonakshi sat in the back seat of the car.

Dev laughed at Manik.

Manik  :  "Hey Sona! Why are you coming here? Dev only going to drive the car..Go and sit in the front"

Sona angrily  :  "No I won't. I will sit here only..I will not be seated near a stranger at all..You sit in the front..Nandini and I will sit in the back seat"

Manik irritated :  "Ohh..For this only, did we oust your brother from here? Didn't Dev consoled you yet?"

Dev gritted his teeth :  "Where to console her? Someone or other is there with her always..She is not at all alone"

Manik chuckled  :  "You should not expect an opportunity Dev...You should only create it..For this you are not at all experienced enough...You are still a trainee in love"

Dev angrily  :  "Okay Mr.Manik Malhotra..Tell me please..How to create that opportunity.."

Manik  :  "Nandini...You please go and sit in the front"

Manik signed Dev to come and sit back.

Manik and Dev shifted their places in a fraction of second which is unexpected by Sonakshi.

Sonakshi is about to get down...But Dev hold his hand.

Sona  :  "Leave me ...I will come with mom"

Dev angrily  :  "Enough of spending time with your mom...Sit quiet..Or else I don't know what I will do?"

Sona angrily  :  "What will you do?"

Dev chuckled...Dev touches her lips with his finger and winked at her.

Sona angrily :  "Get lost"

Saying this Sonakshi turned herself to the window side..

Manik and Nandini smiled at each other...Manik started to drive the car.

All the way, Dev tried everything to console Sonakshi...but she had a straight face.

Manik too sometimes teased them, some times talked to Nandini drove the car.

Sonakshi who is silent for all the talks slept..

Dev placed Sonakshi's head in his lap...After some time, Dev too slept.

Manik and Nandini keep talking with each other until they reached the village.
