A period of cycles was going on, some hearts were breaking, and a fair of emotions was unfolding.
Some stories begin in the middle and end at the beginning.
"Sarthak… Sarthak…" a girl woke up shouting from the bed. Her whole body was drenched in sweat. She placed her hand on her chest and, taking a deep breath, said to herself, "Such a big punishment for a mistake I never made… you have taken me away from myself… how can I live without you people…"
"Please Sarthak, come back… so many relationships have broken without you… please!" Saying this, the girl started crying. Her hands and lips were not cooperating with her.
"What happened, Mom? Are you alright…" a girl said, sitting up next to the woman. Perhaps the loud shouting had woken her up.
Woman: This is reality, yet it revisits my eyes every day as a dream. I don't understand, Kashi, when will I be free from all this… when… I am troubled!
Kashi: Mom… please calm down and sleep, please… everything will be alright. We are here, we will fix everything together. Don't worry, Mom!
Vaidehi: How can I sleep? Tai said we are leaving from here in the morning. With great difficulty and pleading, we convinced her to let us stay here for the night. Where will we go once morning comes? Where is our destination?
Kashi: Turning on the lamp by the bed… "Nothing will happen, I know where we will go now…" Saying this, Kashi looked ahead and then looked back at her mother, resting her face on her knees.
Vaidehi: I can't sleep, anyway it's almost morning. You sleep.
Kashi: No, you sleep. There's no need to wake up early. Saying this, Kashi started stroking her mother's head.
Vaidehi (In her mind): If only you had believed me once, Neela, just once… you ruined this relationship with your own hands… didn't you really believe in your Vedoo, not even a little?
"Are you going to ruin the night thinking about Mr. Rawat now too… Mom, you ruin your day because of him, at least sleep peacefully at night!" Kashi said somewhat strangely, patting Vaidehi's head.
"You know everything, right? How can you stay silent tolerating all this? Doesn't it hurt you?" Vaidehi said, looking up at Kashi.
"Alright, tell me, what will happen if I feel sad? Will all our problems end? Will we become happy? Will what we have endured be made right? Will you be considered right in Mr. Rawat's eyes?" Kashi said, looking at Vaidehi.
"I am not saying that what Neela did was right. He loved me, yet he lost all trust in me. Isn't there trust in love?"
"There isn't, Mom, that's why Mr. Rawat didn't think of you even once and went on to marry that incomplete person…" Kashi said, making a face.
"Call him Dad, Kashi. He is your Dad, no matter what!" Vaidehi said, looking at Kashi.
"Dad's aren't like that, Mama. You've seen Satvi's, Aryan's, Kinsha's dads, right? They are so good, and then there's Mr. Rawat, who not only doesn't love me but doesn't even love the person he claimed to love and bonded with for seven lifetimes. I don't even want to hear his name… so please, Vedoo Mom… from today onwards, don't ask me to call him Dad!" Anyway, I listen to a lot of your things because of that person. Saying this, Kashi tucked Vaidehi in properly and got up and left the room.
As soon as Kashi left, Vaidehi got up, turned on the lamp from the table, and got off the bed herself. Fair skin as white as milk, hair falling below her shoulders, big, round eyes, pink lips… looking at Vaidehi, no one could tell she had a daughter.
Vaidehi tidied the room and said to herself, "Oh my god! Her anger… I won't be able to sleep now. Why doesn't she get sleepy?" Saying this, Vaidehi left the room. As she exited, she looked around and her gaze fell upon the courtyard, where a chair was placed, and Kashi was sitting on it, watching the stars.
Vaidehi saw Kashi and, sitting next to her, said, "I won't take his name anymore. Please go and sleep a little…"
Kashi: You sleep, I'm not sleepy. Anyway, it's five o'clock, your Tai will come now and start the bhajans… Here, you two have started talking early in the morning. If you did a little work, you wouldn't get worn out… I have to say this every day, the mother and daughter have no work! Kashi said, imitating Tai with a grimace.
Seeing Kashi imitate like this, Vaidehi also started laughing. She looked at Kashi and, placing her hand on her shoulder, started laughing heartily. Seeing Vaidehi laughing, a smile also appeared on Kashi's face. She also started laughing loudly along with Vaidehi. Kashi rarely saw Vaidehi laugh.
"May God bless them… these two early in the morning… mother and daughter both start laughing, do they have no work… they won't do a little work, but no, they dare not do any work, just let them talk, these two queens…"
Kashi heard this and, making a face, got up from the chair and said, looking at Tai, "What Tai, you want to get more work done today? From tomorrow, you'll do it, won't you? Then who will you get it done from? We are leaving today." Saying this, a smile appeared on Kashi's face. Anyway, since we are leaving now, you will have to do all this work, won't you? So, are you ready for sweeping, mopping, and dishes? Saying this, Kashi took her mother's hand and brought her inside.
Tai watched them both leave and said to herself, "Dark witch, she never says anything good… just lets her mouth run… whenever she opens her mouth, she just spits fire. She wants to ensnare my son… if I don't teach them a lesson today, my name isn't Kamala… Kamala said this and threw the broom forcefully into the courtyard and went inside.

Tai watched both of them leave and said to herself, "That black witch! She never says anything good! Whenever she opens her mouth, she just spews fire. Trying to charm my son! If I didn't teach those two a lesson today, then my name isn't Kamala!" Saying this, she threw the broom she was holding forcefully into the courtyard and went inside.
Now, onwards… * * * * *
Vaidehi and Kashi were packing their belongings in their room. Just then, a boy arrived at the door and stopped upon seeing both of them packing.
Kashi was angrily putting her clothes into her bag. Her face would turn completely red with anger. Her hair reached below her waist, she had fair skin, sharp features, and looked completely innocent, but whether she was truly innocent, only God knows.
Vaidehi: Kashi, calm down, dear! You get so angry!
Kashi: While putting her clothes in the bag, "Then what should I do? Should I listen to your Tai? I can't listen to her. If you want to listen, then go ahead and listen to her bhajans..." As Kashi reached out to put the bag away, her gaze fell on the boy standing at the door. So, Kashi angrily put her things into the bag.
Vaidehi saw Kashi looking towards the door. She looked and said with a smile, "Oh, Gyan dear, please come in. Why are you standing outside?"
Gyan: Did you mind what Mom said?
Kashi: Placing her hands on her hips and glaring at Gyan, "No, no! We really liked it that your mother gave us so many taunts!"
Gyan: (To himself) "Truly, this girl will be the death of me. Who acts so innocent and childlike!"
Kashi: Kashi looked at Gyan, who was staring intently at her. Kashi waved her hand in front of him and said, "Come out of your dream world, Mr. Gyan! There's nothing in dreams."
Hearing Kashi's words, Gyan came out of his thoughts and held Vaidehi's hand, saying, "Please don't go, Aunty! I'll explain to Mom. Please! She misunderstood. I'm sorry for whatever she said to you and Kashi! I'll speak to her, and she'll apologize to you."
Vaidehi: We don't want an apology, dear, and we won't be staying here anymore. As for the rest, you be happy.
Kashi picked up the bag and handed it to Vaidehi. Vaidehi ji took the bag and went out. As Kashi picked up the bag, Gyan held her hand. Kashi did not like this action of Gyan at all. She glared at Gyan and said, "Look Gyan, I'm not some innocent girl who won't say anything if you grab me like this. Thank God I know you a little. If it were someone else, I would have killed them by now."
Gyan released Kashi's hand but held her bag and said, "Did Mom's words hurt you..." Gyan said, looking at Kashi. Hearing Gyan's words, Kashi clenched her fist and glared at him, saying, "I've only heard such rubbish because of you, otherwise, if anyone else said anything about me, I'd kill them. But I'm not that bad. You helped us, right? In return, I listened to your mother's taunts. Please, let me go now, Gyan, and take care of yourself! You've helped me a lot, but your mother insulted my character."
Saying this, Kashi looked at Gyan and had just picked up the bag from his hand and reached the door when Gyan's voice reached her ears.
"Sorry for what Mom said, but I've truly fallen in love with you. I don't know when or how, but I've fallen in love with you. Please, Kashi, don't go..."
As soon as Kashi heard Gyan's words, her bag slipped from her hands. Her steps faltered for a moment. She turned back to look at Gyan, and a slight moisture was clearly visible in his eyes.
Kashi looked at Gyan and said, "What nonsense are you talking? Gyan, you know very well that I'm not interested in all this. If someone else in your place had said this to me today, I'm telling you, I wouldn't leave them able to walk or speak! So keep your silly talk to yourself, and bury these feelings you have for me in some corner. It will be good for both you and your mother. You've always helped me, I consider you nothing more than a friend, so please... let's keep our friendship, otherwise, you'll lose our friendship because of these one-sided feelings of yours."
Gyan: I know there's nothing in your heart, Kashi, but I've spoken my mind. I just wish that whoever comes into your life loves you immensely.
Kashi: Don't you worry about all this.
Gyan: Coming forward, "By the way, will you beat up that poor guy too?"
Kashi: Absolutely! But no one will come into my life. Don't worry! I despise both these words, love and marriage.
Gyan: Those who say such things are the first to fall in love! Now you think about it calmly... Saying this, Gyan took the bag and came outside. He wiped the moisture from his eyes and placed the bag in the courtyard. Vaidehi was standing nearby, her eyes slightly moist.
Gyan: Aunty, you don't consider me your son, do you? That's why you didn't stay here even when I asked you to.
"Yes, because we don't want to be disrespected unnecessarily, because your..." Kashi said as she came into the courtyard, but Gyan interrupted her.
Gyan: Yes, yes! I know, if you stay here, you'll have to listen to my mother's taunts.
Kashi: You're very understanding... Saying this, Kashi put her small bag on her shoulder and said, "I'll get an auto, Mom!" As Kashi was about to leave, Gyan caught her hand and said, "You stay here, I'll bring it."
"Now have you become idle? Don't you have any work or business? That you'll go fetch a rickshaw for these people now? Anyway, this mother-daughter duo is quite smart; they'll get it themselves!"
"Look Tai, don't bring my mother into this, or else..." Kashi said, pointing her finger.
Kamala: Or else what? Will you beat me up like you beat others?
Gyan: (To himself) "Oh God! What would have happened if Mom had come a little later? Let the river Ganga flow! Calm me down, God! And this girl is angry all day, angry over every little thing! Oh my! Someone make her quiet! Both of them are alike!"
Kashi: Absolutely not! I won't need to do that, but yes, I'll pickle all your words and feed them to you. So don't say another word about my mother, or I won't leave you able to speak. Revenge can be taken anywhere. You go to the market to buy vegetables, right... Saying this, Kashi smiled slyly, which made Gyan and Vaidehi laugh too.
"I'll bring an auto." Saying this, Gyan gestured something to Kashi, and Kashi sat on the chair in the courtyard. Vaidehi was wearing a beautiful pink plain saree. Her loose hair suited her very well. Kashi, on the other hand, was wearing a green short kurta and jeans, with a jacket over the kurta. Her hair was loose, reaching below her waist.
A short while later, Gyan arrived with an auto. Vaidehi looked at Gyan and put her hand on Kashi's shoulder, so Kashi also got up. She picked up the bag and put it in the auto. There were many people in the street, some happy about their departure, and some sad. A girl came running quickly and hugged Kashi, saying, "You're leaving, Kashi? Why didn't you tell me, friend? Don't you consider me a friend? You didn't even think it necessary to tell me!"
Kashi: Pooja dear, sorry! You have a phone, call me. I'll always come to meet you.
Pooja: Liar! You would have left without telling me. It's only by God's grace that I met Gyan Bhaiya, so he told me, otherwise, you would have left, and when I called, you would have just said sorry from somewhere and said, 'Friend, I forgot!' I don't even want to talk to you! You're not a friend at all... Saying all this, Pooja's eyes welled up with tears. She looked at Kashi and hugged her.

Kashi pulled Pooja away from herself, saying, "Hey, is hugging necessary? Move away now! Are you going to make me cry? If I cry, there will be a flood!" She placed her hand on Pooja's cheek and said, "You will always be my friend, so stop this crying. Understood? No? You look good when you laugh and smile. Take care of yourself." Taking out some money from her bag, she gave it to Pooja, "Here, buy some things for your younger sister and pay her school fees." Kashi gave the money secretly, hiding it from everyone.
Pooja said, "No, I can't take this!"
Kashi said, "No, just take it quietly!"
Vaidehi said, "Let's go, Kashi!"
Gyan said, "How will she go, Auntie? Gyan is giving knowledge to people, this is her job. Let them meet!" Looking at Kashi, he said, "Oh Madam! This auto driver is not your uncle that he will wait for you. Come on, get in!"
Kashi said goodbye to Pooja and got into the auto. Vaidehi had also sat down. There were slight tears in Vaidehi's eyes, but there were no expressions on Kashi's face. When Vaidehi looked back, everyone was looking at them. Gyan was constantly looking at Kashi, but Kashi was sitting engrossed in her own thoughts, leaning against the seat.
Kashi used to get angry very easily. Anger would be simmering on her nose for every small thing. After traveling some distance, the auto suddenly braked. Kashi looked at Vaidehi and said to the driver, "What happened, Uncle?"
The driver said, "Madam, it seems the vehicle has broken down. Please wait for a while, I'll check and tell you."
Kashi opened her side door and looked outside, "Please check it once! Then tell me how long it will take? We'll take another auto!"
The driver said, "Yes Madam, please wait a moment. I'll check and tell you now."
Kashi was standing leaning against the auto. She was watching the vehicles passing by, some moving fast and some slow. There were no expressions on her face. Just then, someone put a hand on her shoulder. Kashi lowered her gaze to her side and saw Vaidehi standing beside her. Kashi looked at them and said,
Vaidehi said, "Where will we go now, Kashi? We don't know anyone here."
Kashi said, "Yes, that's true, but where we are going, you know them very well. Don't worry." Looking at Vaidehi and moving forward, "Do you want to eat something?"
Vaidehi looked at Kashi and said, "I don't feel like it. You eat. There's ice cream in front, you eat it."
Kashi looked at Vaidehi and said, looking at the driver who was working, "Uncle, will it take all the time in the world for this?"
The driver said, "Yes, child, it doesn't seem like it will be fixed. It will take a lot of time, so you should take another auto."
Kashi said, "Aren't you strange! After wasting an hour, you're saying this!" Saying this, Kashi looked at the driver and stared at him.
Vaidehi said, "You stay here. I'll go get something for you."
Kashi said, "Yes, go. I'll take the luggage out till then."
Vaidehi said, "I'll check the auto too."
Kashi said, "You go, I'll see." Saying this, Kashi told Vaidehi to go and started taking the luggage out of the auto herself.
Vaidehi was crossing the road, looking straight ahead. She looked around and then looked forward to see the ice cream vendor on the other side. Vaidehi came over to that side. As she quickly brought back two ice creams, her pallu suddenly got caught in the divider on the road. Vaidehi held the ice cream in one hand and pulled out her pallu with the other. In her haste, she moved forward, and a car coming from the front, which was moving very fast, stopped her due to fear. Seeing Vaidehi stopped, the car driver immediately slammed on the brakes and stopped the car. The car stopped right near Vaidehi's feet. The ice cream fell from Vaidehi's hands due to fear.
The young man driving the car saw Vaidehi standing in front of him and immediately got out. Looking at Vaidehi, he said, "Are you alright, Ma'am? Are you hurt? Sorry, I wasn't paying attention."
Kashi's eyes suddenly fell on her mother, and her hands and feet turned cold. Kashi immediately ran to Vaidehi and looking at her properly, said, "Are you alright?"
Vaidehi said, "I'm fine."
The young man said, "Sorry."
Before Vaidehi could say anything, Kashi looked at the young man and forcefully slapped his cheek. As soon as Kashi slapped him, Vaidehi immediately grabbed her hand, "What are you doing, Kashi?" Vaidehi said, looking at Kashi.
Kashi said, "You wait, I'll handle this." Saying this, Kashi looked at the young man, who was standing with his hand on his cheek, his face lowered. He looked at Kashi angrily. So Kashi, grabbing his collar angrily, said, "You seem to be from a rich family. Haven't your family taught you anything? You can just run someone over and leave! Are you even human, do you have any manners? What do you rich people think of yourselves, tell me!"
The young man's eyes were red with anger. The veins in his hands were bulging. The young man grabbed Kashi's hand, forcefully pushed it away from him, and pointing a finger, said, "Shiv Rana listens to no one. I didn't make a mistake, yet I apologized to them. You are a girl, otherwise, you would have known very well how costly it is to mess with Shiv Rana!" Saying this, Shiv glared at Kashi and pushed himself towards his car when Vaidehi caught his hand.
Shiv looked at Vaidehi and said, "Look, Ma'am, you..." Before Shiv could say this much, Vaidehi placed her hand on Shiv's cheek and said, "On Kashi's behalf, I apologize." Looking at Kashi, she said, "Kashi, it was my fault too. You raised your hand on them without asking. Who raises their hand like that, my child?"
Kashi looked at the ice cream scattered on the ground and said, "My ice cream..."
As soon as Shiv heard the word "ice cream" from Kashi's mouth, his anger increased even more. He thought Kashi would apologize to him, but she started crying for her ice cream! Shiv looked at Vaidehi and said, "If possible, Ma'am, take your sister to the hospital."
As soon as Vaidehi heard about Kashi, she started laughing. Laughing, she said, "I am not her sister, I am her mother." Saying this, she looked at Kashi and said, "Kashi, say sorry!"
Before anyone could say anything, Kashi shouted, "Oh brother! Why are you making a video? Is the idea to make me famous or this brother?" Saying this, Kashi glared at the young man standing in the crowd. Hearing Kashi, everyone started looking at the young man. The young man was holding his phone on the side. Looking at him, it didn't seem like he was making a video. Hearing Kashi, Shiv also glared at him, so the young man immediately lowered his phone.
Kashi said, "Where are you trying to become famous? Your own likes and views will increase, and I'll get praised for being a brave girl! And you've created trouble for this brother. Delete it!" Saying this, Kashi looked at Shiv and making a face, said, "Drive carefully next time! Next time it won't be me or Mom!" Saying this, Kashi looked at the ice cream, made a face, and left holding Vaidehi's hand.
Both of them came near the road and started waiting for an auto, but no auto was stopping. And Kashi was already getting angry. She signaled to an oncoming auto, but it also didn't stop. So Kashi kicked the auto from behind. Shiv, sitting in his car, saw this and laughed seeing Kashi frustrated. He started the car and came in front of Kashi, smiling, and said, "If you ask nicely with your hand, someone might stop out of pity... otherwise, keep standing in this sun!" Saying this, Shiv glared at Kashi and put on his sunglasses.

Kashi placed her hand on the car window and said, "Get out, or there will be a murder by my hands here!" Saying this, Kashi kicked the car. Shiv watched from the car; anger flared on his face. He thought to himself, "God, may I never meet this girl again, I don't even want to see her face." With that, Shiv drove away.
Vaidehi ji: Kashi, dear, why do you get angry without listening to anything? Look, that boy is not at fault, yet you slapped him in front of everyone. Tai is right when she says your hands move a lot when you're angry, dear. Hitting someone without knowing...
Kashi: Calm down, Vaidehi Ma... calm down. Let me stop the auto.
Saying this, Kashi started stopping autos. An auto stopped. Kashi told him the address and got in. When Vaidehi asked, Kashi said, "You just go."
About half an hour later, when the auto driver stopped, Kashi and Vaidehi ji got out. As soon as Vaidehi saw what was in front of them, her legs faltered. She looked ahead, and her eyes immediately welled up. Vaidehi ji looked at Kashi and said, "Why have we come here, Kashi?"
Kashi: We'll stay right here, Mom. We have every right in this house. So, walk with ease and be happy.
Vaidehi ji grabbed Kashi's arm, pulled her close, and said, "By what right will we go? Tell me, what are we to them?"
Kashi: Oh my, Mom, how can you forget? Of course, we are related to them, aren't we? You are his wife, and I am his daughter.
Vaidehi ji: You are forgetting, Kashi, that we are divorced. So, by what right will we stay here?
Kashi: Uff, don't worry, I'm here. You can trust me, Mom, just this much.
Saying this, Kashi picked up her bag and took Vaidehi ji's hand. Vaidehi ji's legs were trembling; they weren't supporting her. A scene kept replaying in her eyes.
Vaidehi and Neel stood at the doorway, dressed as bride and groom. Looking at Vaidehi, Neel had said, "You are the Lakshmi of my home. As soon as your feet stepped into this house, so much happiness came, just like that, we will stay together. Crossing the threshold of this house, you will enter my home." Saying this, Neel held Vaidehi's hand tightly. Vaidehi kicked the kalash of rice and looked ahead. Just then, Neel stepped forward and lifted Vaidehi in his arms.
"Come on, Mom, what are you thinking?" Kashi said, holding Vaidehi ji's hand and moving her forward, as Vaidehi ji was standing in one spot, lost in her past memories.
Kashi: Don't think too much, dear. Don't let this heart beat so fast, please, and make yourself strong. We will stay here. You will have to endure a lot. It will be very difficult for you to see Mr. Rawat with Adhni.
Vaidehi: Please don't even take his name. Because of that woman...
Kashi: Mom, not because of that woman, Mr. Rawat never loved you, that's why he didn't trust you.
Saying this, Kashi looked back and stepped forward, ringing the doorbell two or three times.
As soon as Vaidehi ji saw Kashi ringing the doorbell, her hands tightened on the pallu of her saree. As someone opened the door from inside upon hearing the doorbell, Kashi saw it was a servant.
The servant looked at Kashi and asked, "Who are you? Whom do you want to meet?"
Kashi: Kashi...
Saying this, Kashi looked ahead.
Servant: No Kashi lives here, you have come to the wrong place.
Kashi: My name is Kashi, I want to meet Vaidehi ji.
The servant looked at Kashi and said, "She doesn't live here, she left this house. She doesn't live here anymore."
Kashi: She will live here from now on.
Saying this, Kashi took the hand of Vaidehi, who was standing behind her, and came inside the house.
As soon as the servant saw Vaidehi, a smile appeared on his face, but the very next moment, hearing someone's voice, the servant's smile turned into sadness.
"Who has come, Shyam?" a woman, who looked slightly older than Vaidehi, asked the servant, giving him a look. But before she could say anything further, her gaze fell on Kashi and Vaidehi, and her eyes widened; anger flared on her face. She shouted loudly, "How dare you come to my house, Vaidehi? By what right have you come into this house now?"
Before Vaidehi ji could say anything, Kashi calmly sat on the sofa and said, "Uncle, bring one coffee and one tea." Saying this, Kashi looked at Adhni and said, pointing her finger forward and then back to her head, "What did you say? You just said..."
Adhni: Right... by what right has she come?
Kashi: Right... the very same right by which you are sitting in this house. Why, Mom, will you tell them, or should I tell them by what right you have come?
Kashi said, looking at her Mom.
Vaidehi ji said nothing; she was quite angry with Kashi. And Kashi didn't like Vaidehi ji's silence. Angrily, she clenched her fists. Before Kashi could say anything, her gaze fell on the stairs where Neel was standing.
Kashi looked at him and then looked away. She looked at Adhni and said, "Yes, so what was I saying?"
"I was talking about rights. Will you tell me by what right you and your mother have come here?"
When Kashi and Vaidehi heard this voice, everyone looked towards the stairs where Neel was standing. Kashi said, looking at them,
Kashi: What, Mr. Rawat? It seems along with age, you are developing forgetfulness.
As soon as Vaidehi heard Kashi's words, she held Kashi's hand and said, "Be quiet, Kashi. They are older than you, please. Let's go from here. You come, dear."
Kashi: Calm down. If you can't speak, then please listen.
Neel: I forget nothing...
Neel said this line looking at Vaidehi. There was a strange expression in his eyes; his gaze wouldn't leave Vaidehi.
Kashi: Yes, so Mr. Rawat, we accept you don't forget anything, but you are forgetting that Vaidehi is your wife.
Neel: She is not, she was. We are divorced, you might have forgotten that.
Kashi: Oh yes, divorce... I remember... so she has no right, but I have a right in this house, on you, because I am your daughter and the sole heir of this house. So, it means I have a right in this house, and on you... Now what? There is no rule in law that parents can divorce their children.
Saying this, Kashi smiled and stood up from the sofa, walked to Neel, and said, "Should I explain anything more, or have you understood?"
Neel: You are not my daughter, you are Vaidehi's, right? You never stayed with me.
Kashi: Slapping her own forehead, "Oh God, I have to explain again. I wasn't a small child for you to get custody of both of us. Therefore, I have a full right on you and on my Mom. You remember what was said in court, that I can stay with anyone. It will be my decision. My decision is that I will stay with both of you. So, don't ask too many questions and tell us our room."
Neel looked at Kashi and thought to himself, "She has gone completely after you, Vedu." Neel snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Adhni, who was staring at Neel angrily. The entire household, upon hearing the commotion, had come to the hall. Some people were happy to see Vaidehi, while some had only anger on their faces.
Adhni: How can these people stay here, Neel?
Dadi: Just as you and your son are living, she and her mother will also live.
Adhni ji: This is a house, Dadi, not a धर्मशाला (a charitable rest house).
Dadi: This is my house, so I can make it anything. If we bear the expenses, what is your problem? I am the elder in this house, and even today, I have the full right to make decisions for my house.
Niyati ji: Mother is right. (Neel's mother)
To be continue...
In the next part, you will get to know all the characters, so don't worry.

Neel saw Vaidehi and left. When Kashi saw Neel leave, she called out, "Mr. Rawat, thank you." After saying this, Kashi picked up her bag and looking at everyone, said, "Will someone show me a room, or should I keep my luggage in Mr. Rawat's room?" Having said this, Kashi looked at everyone and started climbing the stairs with her luggage.
Niyati Ji said, "I'll show you to your room." Saying this, Niyati Ji gestured to Kashi and began climbing the stairs ahead of her, moving upwards.
Looking at the room, Niyati Ji said, "This room is yours, Vaidehi. Neel's room is next door." After saying this, Niyati Ji looked at Vaidehi, who was silently observing the room.
Niyati Ji looked at Vaidehi, stepped forward, and hugged her, saying, "I missed you so much. You never even asked about me, did you? Like, how is your mother, is she even alive?"
Vaidehi placed her hands on Niyati Ji's cheeks and said, "Don't say things like, 'may something happen to me before something happens to you,' Mom." Having said this, Vaidehi moved away from Niyati Ji and touched her feet.
Niyati Ji looked at Vaidehi and said, "After you left, nothing good ever happened in this house, child. Everything has fallen apart. My Neel doesn't talk to anyone. He has completely changed after you left, Vaidehi."
Vaidehi: "That was his decision too, wasn't it, Mom."
Kashi, who was pacing around the room, heard Vaidehi's words. She looked around and said without turning, "So what should we do about it? They are your sons, you explain. And please stay away from my mom and don't bother her. And as for your son, he's not a child."
Vaidehi looked at Kashi and said, "Kashi... have you left your manners somewhere? You judge everyone with the same yardstick. She is older than you, and she is your grandmother."
Kashi: "What's the matter, Mom? You are speaking now. Why didn't you speak downstairs when Mr. Rawat and his wife were talking about their rights?"
Vaidehi Ji: "How many times have I told you, call him 'Dad.' You just said it now, that you have rights over them, so please call him 'Dad'."
Kashi: "Never... Auntie, will you tell me my room?" Saying this, Kashi picked up her bag and walked out of the room.
Vaidehi: "Sorry, Mom... Kashi is like this."
Niyati Ji: "Does that mean you named her Kashi just like that? This girl is nothing like her name."
Vaidehi: "I didn't name her, Neel did. She is nothing like her name, I think so too. She walks around with anger on her face all day. She doesn't even look, whether it's a boy, a girl, older, younger, what matters, she just gets into arguments and causes trouble. Even today, when we were coming, a boy's car almost hit me, but I was saved. But still, she slapped him and said so much, I can't even tell you."
Niyati: "She is very difficult."
Vaidehi: "She is also very lovable."
Niyati Ji: "You rest." Saying this, Niyati Ji left. Meanwhile, Kashi was looking for her room when her gaze fell on a room with a sign on the door that read, "No one is allowed in my room..." Kashi read it and said, "Huh? Who writes this stuff? It should be something cool that brings a smile to anyone's face, not something that ruins a perfectly good mood." Having said this, a mischievous smile appeared on Kashi's face. She looked around and took out paper and pen from her bag, wrote something on it, looked around again, and stuck the paper back on the door in the same place.
As soon as she moved away, Niyati Ji placed her hand on her shoulder, and Kashi smiled and said, "I still haven't found my room, Grandma."
Niyati Ji took Kashi's hand and brought her into the room opposite and said, "This is your room. You rest."
Kashi: "Whose room is that opposite, by the way?"
Niyati Ji looked towards the opposite room from the doorway and said to Kashi, "Leave it. Just remember not to go into that room, or something very bad will happen."
Kashi: "Okay." Saying this, Kashi opened her bag and took out clothes to go, but before that, Niyati Ji said,
Niyati Ji: "Thank you." Saying this, Niyati Ji looked at Kashi, who was standing there as she was. Niyati Ji left.
As soon as they left, Kashi also left.
After a short while, Kashi took a shower, changed, and stood in the small balcony of her room. In the evening, the scorching sun fell directly on her face. Kashi was wearing pajamas and a short t-shirt over them. Her hair, reaching below her waist, was left open. Kashi looked at the balcony and said, "Let's do a little bit of work, Kashi." Saying this, Kashi looked around and realized that there was only one balcony in the entire house, meaning she could move around the entire balcony from here. Having said this, Kashi began to arrange all the flower bouquets properly. Kashi came into the room and placed the chair outside on the balcony.
In a short while, Kashi set up all her belongings and, looking at her hands, entered the bathroom when she realized there was no water coming from the bathroom tap. "What is this system? There's no water..."
In a little while, Kashi set up all the things and went to the bathroom to wash her hands. There was no water coming from the bathroom tap. "What system is this, man? There's no water! It was coming just now...?" Where did it go now? Where should I wash my hands now? Saying this, Kashi came out of the room. She looked around and no one was there. Kashi closed the room door, turning back, and as soon as she turned back, she collided with someone. Kashi's hands, smeared with dirt, landed on the boy's white shirt. Kashi herself was pressed against his chest.
As soon as Kashi was against his chest, the boy jerked her away and said angrily, "Watch where you're going!" After saying this, as soon as the boy's gaze fell on his shirt, his fists clenched in anger. When he looked at Kashi, his eyes widened, and only one word escaped his mouth, "You…"
As soon as Kashi heard this voice, she also looked ahead and said the same thing, "You… you followed me here? What did you think, I'm afraid of your threats? Did you come here to kill me? Look…" Kashi said, pointing her finger…
Boy— "My name is Shiv. I don't follow anyone." After saying this, Shiv tangled one of his fingers with Kashi's finger and pulling it down, said, "Don't mess with me, or it will be very expensive."
Kashi— "Kashi doesn't like cheap clashes either, it should be something unique and expensive…" Saying this, Kashi glared at Shiv and said again, "By the way, what are you doing in my house?"
Shiv— "Your house…? In your dreams. This is my house." Saying this, Shiv looked at Kashi, who was making faces and staring at him.
Kashi— "Don't come in front of me again… otherwise this remaining dirt will directly hit your face." Saying this, Kashi started to leave.
Shiv watched Kashi leaving and said, "Listen…" After saying this, Shiv looked at his shirt and said, "By the way, listen… take this, wash it, and give it to me pressed. You came here for this work, so start your work with my work."
Kashi, who was leaving, heard Shiv's words and her steps stopped. She turned back, smiled, took his shirt from Shiv's hand, and started making it dirtier with the mud on her hands. As soon as Shiv saw Kashi doing this, he put his hand on Kashi's waist, pulled her towards him, and looking at her, said, "The more dirt you make, the more expensive it will be for you."
Kashi did not like Shiv's sudden touch at all. She pushed him away with anger, glared at him, and just as she raised her hand to slap him, Shiv caught Kashi's hand and said, "Don't repeat this mistake, or it will truly be very expensive for you. Before, I was in a public place, so now I am in my house… I can do anything…" Saying this, Shiv pushed Kashi away forcefully and went into his room.
Kashi saved herself from falling from such a sudden push and looked in the direction where Shiv had gone. He had slammed the door quite hard. Kashi looked towards Shiv's room, smiled wryly at his shirt, crushed it with her hands and threw it on the ground, then picked it up with one hand, crushed it with her foot, made a face, and hung Shiv's T-shirt on the hook on his door. Looking around, she smiled and left.
Meanwhile, Vaidehi Ji was putting her bag's contents in the cupboard. Kashi saw her from the doorway and came into the room, going straight to the bathroom. Kashi cleaned her hands and came out, her gaze fell on Vaidehi Ji, who was not paying any attention to the clothes. Kashi looked at Vaidehi Ji, went ahead, took the clothes from Vaidehi Ji's hands, and started folding them.
Vaidehi Ji looked at Kashi and said softly, "Are you angry?" Vaidehi Ji said this and looked at Kashi intently. Kashi looked at Vaidehi Ji, glanced around, and then looked back at Vaidehi Ji, continuing to fold the clothes.
Vaidehi Ji— "Is there anyone else here besides you?"
Kashi— "Yes… why am I angry?" Saying this, Kashi kept the clothes in the cupboard and said, "You can only speak in front of me; you should fight for your own rights once."
Vaidehi Ji— "The day you fall in love, Kashi, you will know."
When Kashi heard Vaidehi Ji's words, she closed the cupboard and said while going towards the door, "Love…? Never. Definitely not after seeing you. If love is like yours, then this Kashi will never love. So forget that Mom, I will never fall in love." Saying this, Kashi reached the door and her gaze fell on Neil standing at the door, so Kashi averted her gaze and left. She had gone only a little further when her eyes welled up. Kashi wiped her tears and as she came towards her room, her gaze fell on Shiv's room, which was still closed. Kashi bent her legs back and came down the stairs.
Kashi looked around and saw quite a few people in the hall.
To be continued…
Why do you leave after reading, man? Tell me by commenting. If the story is not good, I will stop writing. 🥺
Riya Parashar
Kashi looked around. There were many people in the hall. Kashi looked at everyone and was about to leave when Aadhni’s voice reached her ears.
“Aadhni Ji— Where are you going so late at night, girl?”
Kashi’s steps stopped at the sound of Aadhni’s voice. Kashi turned back and stood with her hands folded, smiling. She said, “Who are you? My mother, or my father, or my sister? You are none of mine… so don’t ask me this question again from today. I live my life my way, I don’t like anyone stopping me from going and coming.”
“Aadhni Ji— Your tongue is sharper than scissors. I am older than you, and didn’t your mother teach you how to talk to elders?”
Hearing Aadhni’s voice, everyone in the hall had come out. From upstairs, Neel, Vaidehi, and Shiv also came out of their rooms.
When Vaidehi saw Kashi arguing with Aadhni, she became worried. She looked at Neel and said, “Please stop Aadhni, if Kashi loses her temper!”
Shiv, standing behind, was listening to Vaidehi’s words. He moved to the side, placed his hand on the railing, and looked down. Meanwhile, Neel looked at Vaidehi and came down from there.
Kashi— Scissors… scissors are used to cut clothes. And as for you being older, the respect you are getting is because of that. But with the right you have to be here, I wouldn’t even take your name with my tongue. Pointing her finger— Don’t argue with me from now on. And as for my mom, don’t even take her name, or I swear by Baba, I’ll make such a mess of you that you won’t be able to speak to me. As Kashi was about to leave after saying this, Aadhni stepped forward, looked around, and grabbed Kashi’s hand.
“Aadhni Ji— Why would I think badly of you, daughter? I am like a mother to you.”
Kashi forcefully pulled her hand away from Aadhni Ji and, showing her finger, said, “You are not my mother. Look, I am not in the mood to talk to you at all. As Kashi was about to leave after saying this, Neel’s voice was heard by everyone.
Neel— “Kashi… you have no manners at all, about how to talk to your own people, to elders. Isn’t she older than you?” Neel said, coming near Aadhni and Kashi, “She is like a mother to you.”
Kashi glared at Neel and shouted, “She is not my mother, understand, Mr. Rawat? And you are not my father either, that you’ve come to give me useless advice. No one has the right to stop me from going and coming.”
Shiv was continuously watching Kashi. When Neel looked at Kashi, Kashi shouted, “She is not my mother, Mr. Rawat! She is your second wife. You got tired of your first wife!” As soon as Kashi said this, Vaidehi slapped her across the cheek. Everyone looked at Vaidehi, and she was glaring at Kashi angrily.
Vaidehi— “Will you always point fingers at me? Is this what I have taught you? Does anyone talk to their father like this?”
Kashi looked at Vaidehi and, glancing at everyone, walked out of the house.
Neel— “Are you mad? Who hits like this? You could have explained with words!”
Vaidehi Ji looked at everyone and went upstairs to her room. A smile appeared on Shiv’s face. He rubbed his forehead with two fingers and went into his room. His attention still did not fall on the t-shirt stuck on his door. Everyone was distressed by Vaidehi Ji’s behavior.
Niyati Ji— “Who speaks like that? She’s a child, we could have explained it to her!”
Komal Ji (Neel’s aunt)— “You spoke correctly, sister! Vaidehi shouldn’t have hit the child.”
Neel looked at everyone and went to Vaidehi’s room from there.
Vaidehi came into her room and sat on the bed. She put her hand over her mouth and started crying. “Sorry, I didn’t want to hit you, Kashi, but you make me do it.” Saying this, Vaidehi cried again.
Just then, when Neel placed his hand on her shoulder, Vaidehi looked at Neel and stood up from the bed. Neel, looking at Vaidehi, said, “Who hits such a big child, Vedhu?”
Vaidehi— “I just raised my hand in anger, otherwise I have never hit anyone till today. I made a big mistake, don’t you know, Neel? If she doesn’t talk to me, I feel like my life is draining away.”
Neel held Vaidehi by the shoulder and turned her towards him, saying, “It’s okay, she’ll come in a while, then you apologize to her, she’ll agree.”
Vaidehi Ji— “You haven’t seen her anger till today, I have. It’s very dangerous. She always hurts herself, and that anger is something else, who knows where she might have gone.”
Neel looked at Vaidehi and, holding her hand, pulled her closer, saying, “Sorry.”
Vaidehi looked at Neel and, moving away from him, said, “You made the mistake. You didn’t even trust me.” Saying this, Vaidehi averted her gaze from Neel.
Neel looked at Vaidehi and, holding her hand, said, “And what if I say I was helpless?” Neel said, looking at Vaidehi.
Vaidehi looked at Neel and said, “I don’t believe you. You yourself threw me out of this house. Do you think Sarthak separated from you because of me? Only you feel his pain. Even today, when I remember that day, my soul shivers. What kind of mother would separate herself from her child?”
Neel— “But I…” As Neel said this, Vaidehi interrupted.
Vaidehi— “There is no relationship between us anymore, so please you can leave.”
Neel— “Is it really true that we have no relationship anymore…?”
Vaidehi— “Yes, Neel… a very big relationship, that you are the father of my daughter, otherwise I would have never come here.” Saying this, Vaidehi averted her gaze from Neel. Neel looked at Vaidehi and left from there.
Meanwhile, everyone was sitting in the hall. Just then, Neel also came there. He glanced at everyone and sat on a sofa to the side, closed his eyes, and leaned back on the sofa.
To be continued…
Do comment, how the story is going.
Riya Parashar
The same people were sitting in the hall. Then Neil also arrived. He glanced at everyone and sat on a side sofa, closing his eyes and leaning back.
First, let me introduce you all to this family, otherwise you'll get confused.

Sarika – Komal Ji's daughter
Anand – Sarika's husband

Now, let's get to the story…
It had turned from evening to night. Everyone was busy with their own work. Neil was sitting on the sofa doing some office work. It was already ten o'clock at night. Niyati Ji looked at everyone and said, "Let's all have dinner."
Meanwhile, Vaidehi was holding her phone to her ear, repeatedly calling Kashi, but Kashi's phone was off. Worry was clearly visible on Vaidehi's face. She quickly called Kashi again and moved towards the stairs when she collided with Shiv, who was coming out.
Shiv: Sorry… Auntie…
Vaidehi Ji looked at Shiv and said, "It's okay." She nodded and nervously went downstairs from outside. Seeing Vaidehi so flustered, Shiv also felt strange. He shrugged his shoulders and went downstairs.
Seeing Vaidehi so worried, everyone came into the hall. Niyati Ji looked at Vaidehi and said, "What happened? Why are you so worried?"
Vaidehi Ji: Kashi… Kashi hasn't come yet. It's ten o'clock.
Shiv, who was leaving, stopped in his tracks upon hearing Vaidehi Ji's voice and, shaking his head in negation after hearing her words, went outside.
Neil: I…
Before Neil could say anything further, Aadhni looked at Neil and said, "Let's wait a bit longer. Maybe she'll come. Perhaps she went to meet her lover. Kids these days, you know…"
Vaidehi Ji looked at Aadhni and said, "Speak within limits. You know where she went. Don't say so much about my daughter of your own accord, understood… otherwise it won't be good at all." After saying this, Vaidehi glared at Aadhni and sat down on the sofa.
Meanwhile, Kashi was sitting on a chair in a garden, thinking about something. Again and again, she remembered Vaidehi Ji raising her hand at her. Kashi looked up at the sky. It was indeed very late at night. It was a slightly cold season, so a cool breeze was blowing.
Kashi looked at herself, wearing only a short top and pajamas. She took out her phone from her pajama pocket and looked at it, which had turned off. Kashi hit her head with the phone and said to herself, "Vaidehi must be worried…" Saying this, Kashi was quickly leaving the garden when she collided with a car coming from the front. Kashi was not paying attention at all to the front. Upon impact with the car, Kashi fell to the ground. Shiv, who was driving the car, immediately got out of the car when he saw a girl. Without looking at Kashi, he said, "Hello miss, are you okay?"
Kashi, who recognized Shiv's voice, moved her hair from her face and looked up, lifting her neck. Shiv also looked a bit troubled seeing her like this. Shiv immediately knelt down and, extending his hand as if to touch Kashi, remembered his and Kashi's conversation from a little earlier. Shiv immediately stood up and leaned against the car.
Kashi, who was about to place her hand in Shiv's, but when she saw Shiv pulling away, she also stood up, placing her hand on the ground… and came in front of Shiv and said,
Kashi: It seems my words don't affect your mind… That's why you keep colliding with me whenever I see you.
Shiv: Look… (showing his finger…)
Kashi interlocked her finger with Shiv's and said, "I'm not at home… I'm in a public place!" Saying this, Kashi shook her head in negation to Shiv and said, "Don't mess with me… I'm in a bad mood. I'll forget that you live in my house…" Saying this, Kashi started to leave when Shiv's gaze fell on the blood trickling from Kashi's head. Shiv watched Kashi as she was leaving and grabbed her wrist, pulling her towards him. Due to being pulled towards him so suddenly, Kashi's one hand was resting on Rudransh's chest. Both, oblivious to everything else, were looking into each other's eyes. Then, the honking of a passing car broke their trance, and Kashi, glaring at Shiv, said, "What kind of rudeness is this? Why did you hold my hand?"
Shiv looked at Kashi and raised his hand slightly, saying, "An injury on your head… blood…"
Kashi: It's just bleeding, I'm not dead!
Shiv looked towards Kashi, raised his hand slightly, and said, "You have an injury on your head... blood...!"
Kashi— "There is blood, but I'm not dead...!"
Kashi's response angered Shiv. He turned his face away as soon as Kashi spoke and let go of her hand. Kashi looked at Shiv and started to leave. Kashi had taken only a few steps when Shiv's eyes fell on some boys sitting nearby, and his fists clenched because they were staring continuously at Kashi. Kashi's waist was clearly visible from her top. Shiv glared at them and moved towards Kashi.
When Kashi saw someone approaching behind her, she turned to look back. It was Shiv. The moment Kashi saw Shiv, her feet stopped.
Kashi— "Are you following me...?"
Shiv— "It's not that bad yet...!"
Kashi— "It will be soon... Don't follow me, understand...?" Kashi said, showing her finger.
Shiv— "Your mom sent me to pick you up...!"
Kashi— "Absolutely not... It would have been better if you had said, 'Come with me,' and I would have gone...!" Kashi said, and started walking again. The house isn't far anyway.
Shiv glared at Kashi and went to his car and sat in it. He started the car and began following Kashi.
Kashi interlocked her fingers and said to herself, "What a scoundrel! A girl is walking, and this person is sitting in a car enjoying himself!" On top of this, it's cold... Kashi said, and started walking. Walking a short distance, she murmured softly, "I was angry when I came, so I didn't pay attention to the way, but why is it so long now...?" How long is this path, who should I ask...? Kashi looked around and saw an auto. Seeing the auto, a smile came to Kashi's face. She went to the auto driver, and as she was about to sit, she remembered something.
Meanwhile, Shiv was getting frustrated with Kashi's actions. Where has he gotten himself into! And she can go by auto, but going with me would damage her self-respect. Saying this, Shiv saw Kashi coming back out of the auto, and a smile appeared on his face. I feel bad, I'm going by car, and she's walking alone at night... But it's my compulsion, because she won't come with me, and she won't let me come with her.
Kashi looked around and, in anger, stood in front of the car. This time too, a collision was narrowly avoided because Shiv had stopped the car with a sudden brake. Kashi glared at him and then opened the side door and sat down. As soon as Kashi sat down, Shiv started staring at her, so Kashi said, looking straight ahead,
Kashi— "Stare at me later, please, let's go home...!"
Shiv— "I'm not a driver to follow your orders...!"
Kashi— "Will calling you 'brother' work...?" Hearing 'brother' from Kashi's mouth, Shiv glared at her, so Kashi said, looking ahead, "No, so please drive...!"
Shiv started the car angrily, then Kashi said, looking at him, "Oh hero... don't be too heroic... I asked to go home... I don't want to go to the hospital, understand...!"
Shiv— "Talk with manners... I am older than you...!"
Kashi, who was looking ahead, suddenly started laughing loudly. Seeing her laugh like that, Shiv glared at her, so Kashi said, "Manners are secondary... and secondly... are you an uncle that you're talking about being older...!"
Shiv— "Shut up... don't say another word now...!"
Kashi— "Please drive a little faster, Vedhi must be waiting...!"
Upon hearing the name Vedhi, Shiv applied the brakes and glared at Kashi. Kashi looked at him and sat quietly, looking ahead.
Shiv bent down slightly, took out tape from the dashboard, and stuck it on Kashi's mouth. As soon as Shiv applied the tape, Kashi tried to remove it with her hand, but Shiv said, "Don't even try to open it. It's a five-minute journey, please be quiet... and don't ever come in front of me again, I don't want to see your face...!"
Kashi (in her mind)— "What am I dying to see your monster-like face...!"
In a short while, both of them reached home. Kashi immediately removed the tape from her mouth, got out of the car, and went inside. Rudransh saw her go and himself went inside five minutes later.
As soon as Kashi entered the house, everyone's eyes were fixed on her. Kashi looked at everyone, and as she was about to leave, her gaze fell on Vaidehi Ji, who looked quite worried. Vaidehi Ji saw Kashi, ran to her, hugged her, and said, "Where did you go? Does anyone leave without telling...!" Do you know how worried I was, I even switched off my phone in anger...!" Vaidehi Ji said, touching Kashi's face.
Shiv, who had come inside, also stopped and stood there, listening to everyone's conversation.
Kashi— "Wherever I go... I'm not a child who would switch off her phone. My phone switched off by itself...!"
"It needs a charger too... otherwise, it will shut down on its own..." Shiv said softly, standing near Kashi. No one heard Shiv's voice except Kashi.
Vaidehi— "Are you okay? How did you get this injury...?" Kashi asked, touching Vaidehi Ji's forehead.
To be continue…
Please comment!
Riya Parashar
Kashi— Wherever I go… I’m not a child… that I’ll switch off my phone. My phone switched off by itself.
"It also needs a charger… otherwise, it will switch off by itself…" Shiv said softly, standing near Kashi. No one except Kashi heard Shiv’s voice.
Vaidehi— Are you alright? How did you get this injury? Kashi asked, touching Vaidehi’s forehead.
Kashi turned her neck towards Shiv and then looking back at Vaidehi, said, "Some demon was driving a car on the road without looking!" "And you should worry about these people, not me. I can take care of myself."
Vaidehi— So much anger at Mom? Why are you angry and at what?
Kashi— You made me angry, thank God I came back in control. And I don’t need to tell you at what I got angry.
Neel— How are you talking to your mother? Neel said, looking at Vaidehi.
Kashi— This is a matter between me and Vaidehi… I hope… I can hope that much that no one will interfere in our matter. Kashi was about to leave after saying this when Adhni’s voice reached her ears again. Hearing her voice, Kashi’s steps stopped right there. Shiv saw this and went upstairs from there.
Adhni Ji— Does anyone talk to their mother like this? This girl has no shame or respect for anyone, she puts everyone, young and old, in the same line.
Kashi folded her hands and said, glaring at Adhni, "It seems you have a great liking for getting insulted by arguing with me!" "That’s why you are interfering in our matter without any reason."
Niyati Ji, Komal Ji, and Sorabhi, who were standing behind Adhni, started laughing, covering their mouths.
Adhni— Look! Pointing at Kashi.
Kashi— Tucking her finger into Adhni’s finger and pulling it down—"What do you want to show?" "Be thankful that you are older than me, otherwise, I would forget who is standing in front of me!" "Don't you have anything to do, that you keep picking fights with me? Are you a human or a thread… sorry-sorry, you can’t be a thread… because a thread joins things, it doesn’t break them… you break other people’s homes, don’t you, Mrs. Adhni… sorry-sorry… Mrs. Adhni Neel Rawat, that’s your full name… whom you’ve forcefully occupied!"
Everyone was watching Kashi argue with Adhni, a smile on everyone’s face. Niyati Ji was watching Adhni’s face.
Adhni— Who had been listening to Kashi’s words for a while, glared at Kashi and said, "I am, in a way, your second mother… so talk to me with respect!"
Kashi— "You are second, aren’t you… not the first mother… so don’t even think about picking a fight!" "And yes, you might be free, but I am not, so don’t even think about arguing with me, and if you argue with me, I swear by Baba, you will regret it… I’m not afraid, I’ve said it in front of everyone." Saying this, Kashi went upstairs.
As soon as Kashi climbed the stairs and came up, her eyes fell on Shiv, standing at her room door. So Kashi also stopped at her room door. She glared at Shiv and was about to move aside when Shiv put his hand on the wall. Seeing such an act by Shiv, Kashi got very angry. She folded her hands and said, looking at Shiv, "Perhaps someone just told me this a little while ago…" "Never come in front of me again, I don’t even want to see your face!" "Now what… is my face so good that you are always around me to see it?"
Shiv looked at Kashi, grabbed her arm, turned her around, and pressed her back against his chest, leaning slightly, rested his chin on Kashi’s shoulder, and with one hand, pointed his finger in front of Kashi, showing her room door, and said, "You did this, didn’t you!" "How dare you… how dare you write this!"
Kashi bent her hand and hit Shiv hard in the stomach with her elbow. Kashi hit Shiv quite hard, Shiv’s hands loosened from Kashi’s arms, and he clutched his stomach.
Shiv— What is this?
Kashi— What happened when I spoke to you, you’ve become arrogant. To this day, no one has dared to even touch Kashi… I break hands and legs properly!
Shiv angrily grabbed Kashi’s hand and pulled her into his room, looking at the words written on the door and said, "I don’t do anything, you do it from now on. To this day, no one has dared to raise a hand on Shiv Rana, and what have you written here after removing my words?"
Kashi— I didn’t like it!
Hearing this from Kashi’s mouth, Shiv looked at her in surprise, glaring at her, he said, "What? You didn’t like it… Are you crazy? I don’t do anything based on your likes… it’s my life, my will prevails!"
Kashi— Adjusting Shiv’s collar—"What Mr. Rana… no problem, you write it again." Saying this, Kashi winked at Shiv and was about to leave when Shiv caught her hand.
Shiv— Seems like you have a lot of experience with all this… Well, does your boyfriend know?
Kashi— Does the word boyfriend come first in your dictionary, you boys? And whether I have experience or not, you know very well, perhaps that’s why you’re after me and keep touching me… If you want to roam around with my character certificate… roam around… it doesn’t matter to me. Saying this, Kashi left from there. She was extremely angry. Kashi came into the room, locked the door, and picked up the flower pot in the room and threw it hard against the wall.
Meanwhile, Neel gestured to Vaidehi, and Vaidehi started going to Kashi’s room. Niyati Ji looked at Adhni and said, "Don’t you have anything to do?"
Adhni Ji— It seems you are all forgetting that your grandson is not in this house! Saying this, Adhni Ji left from there.
Niyati Ji looked at her grandmother and silently left from there. Niyati Ji’s eyes welled up. Meanwhile, Vaidehi knocked on Kashi’s room door, but Kashi gave no response from inside.
Vaidehi Ji said, looking at Neel, "Neel, Neel… Kashi… when she gets stressed, she gets a headache, and from too much stress, she faints… if she has done something…" Saying this, Vaidehi Ji fell silent.
To be continued…
If the story isn’t good, just say so.
Riya Parashar
Vaidehi ji looked at Neel and said, "Neel, Kashi… when she gets stressed, she gets a headache, and if she gets too stressed, she faints… If she…!" Vaidehi ji fell silent after saying this.
Neel knocked on Kashi's room door and shouted, "Kashi, Kashi! Open the door, daughter! Kashi, can you hear me! Please open the door, Kashi, look, Mommy is getting worried!"
When the door didn't open for a while, Neel moved forward and tried to break it down. Just then, Vaidehi knocked on Shiv's room door. Shiv came out upon hearing the noise.
Vaidehi: Please help!
Shiv looked at Neel and started helping him. Both of them pushed their shoulders forward to break the door together, and just as they were about to break it, the gate opened. Neel stopped, but Shiv lost his balance and fell to the ground with Kashi, who was standing right in front of him. As they both fell, Shiv's lips touched Kashi's forehead, where she had been injured a little while ago.
Both of them were staring at each other. Shiv looked at Kashi and thought to himself, "Oh God! Her name shouldn't be Kashi, it should be trouble… which directly lands in my lap!"
Kashi glared at Shiv and placing her hands on Shiv's arms said, "Hey, are you just going to keep staring? Get up from on top of me! I don't know what you eat that you're so heavy… I thought I was going to die!" Shiv was irritated by Kashi's words. He composed himself, got up, and stood. Vaidehi looked at both of them and went forward to hug Kashi, saying, "Are you really thinking of taking my life!"
Kashi: Why would I take your life? I was in the washroom, but in that time, you've turned the whole house upside down!
Neel: Are you okay? Neel said, placing his hand on Kashi's head.
Kashi: Hmm, I'm okay.
Vaidehi: Come, let's go eat!
Kashi: I don't want to eat!
Neel: Please come and eat… everyone is waiting for you!
Vaidehi: Yes, please, Kashi!
Kashi looked at everyone and, hiding her hand, said, "You all go ahead, I'll come." As Kashi turned to go into her room, Vaidehi ji was about to follow her into the room, but Kashi put her hand in between and said, "There's nothing in the room, let's go outside, let's go from here, I'm coming too!"
Everyone was walking ahead, Kashi was walking behind with her mother, and Rudransh was following them.
Everyone sat down together to eat. Kashi didn't take her hand out and started eating with her left hand. So Vaidehi ji looked at her and hit her hand, saying, "Eat with your right hand!"
Kashi: I want to eat with your hand!
Vaidehi ji fed Kashi and then started eating herself. Kashi took one or two bites and got up. "I'm done, I'm going to my room." Saying this, Kashi left. A little later, everyone else also left. Kashi came into the room and closed the gate. Looking at the room, the condition of the room was indeed bad. Kashi put her hand on her head and said, "I'm saved…" Saying this, Kashi picked up the pieces of the flower pot and threw them in the dustbin, and lying down on the bed said, "What a terrible day it was today… I've only seen one person since morning until now, that grumpy Rana!" Saying this, Kashi closed her eyes.
Meanwhile, everyone else had gone to their rooms.
…Early in the morning… Shiv, who was sleeping in his room, woke up to some sounds. Lying on the bed, he turned on his room lamp and picked up his phone from the table to check the time. It wasn't even five o'clock yet.
"No one in the house wakes up this early, then what are these sounds…?" Saying this, Shiv removed the blanket from himself, put on the slippers kept nearby, and came into his balcony. Shiv looked around, and then as he looked down, he saw Kashi, who was still in yesterday's clothes, playing with a football, and in between, she would stop and water the small trees nearby with the water pipe lying close by.
Kashi looked around, placed the pipe on the ground, and went back to playing with her ball. Shiv was watching Kashi very carefully. She was truly playing football very well even by herself. Shiv's gaze kept returning to Kashi's hand. Seeing blood still oozing from her hand, he clenched his fists on the railing in anger. Meanwhile, Kashi, who was playing football, felt her hands getting wet. Kashi opened her fist and saw that the injury she had sustained last night had deepened. Kashi kept the football aside, took the pipe, and washed her hand.
"Oh God! This blood… if Vaidehi had seen it last night, there would have been an uproar, no, no, a storm, a hurricane, a tsunami, and even more!" Saying this, as Kashi turned to step back, her foot accidentally got caught in the fallen pipe. As Kashi was about to fall, Shiv caught her. Shiv was holding Kashi by her waist, but Kashi was still dangling in the air.
Shiv: Do you really go around carrying trouble with you… like… come trouble, embrace me! Shiv said as he helped Kashi stand properly.
"Oh God! This blood... If Vedee had seen it at night, there would have been a huge uproar, no no, a storm, a tempest, a tsunami, and what not, everything would have happened...! " As soon as Kashi said this and turned to step back, her foot got caught in a pipe that had fallen down. Just as Kashi was about to fall, Shiv caught her before she could. He held her by the waist, but Kashi was still hanging in the air.
Shiv— Do you really carry trouble around with you...? "It's like... come trouble, embrace me...!" Shiv said as he helped Kashi stand properly.
Kashi— Very funny... But I still didn't laugh.
Shiv— Why would you laugh? That poor thing is also afraid of you...! Shiv muttered, facing sideways.
Kashi— What did you say...?
Shiv— Why don't you watch where you're going? It's your mistake every time. Learn to watch where you're going, understand...? Shiv said, looking at Kashi.
Kashi— You're finding fault in this too now. The only thing stuck in your eyes is that it's always my fault... Showing her finger to Shiv... "You make..." lowering her finger and looking to the side... "Damn, I can't even speak English properly on time..." Saying this, Kashi looked back at Shiv, who was looking at her strangely. Kashi smiled looking at Shiv and said... "I'll WhatsApp you."
Shiv— And why would I give you my number...? Shiv said, crossing his arms and raising his eyebrows.
Kashi— And who said I'm asking for your number...? Kashi said, putting her hands on her waist and glaring at Shiv.
Shiv— Just let’s argue... Saying this, Shiv glared at Kashi and said, "How did your hand get injured...?"
Kashi— Why should I tell you...? Am I anything to you...? Kashi asked, showing and wiggling her finger.
Shiv— Don't tell me... "As he was leaving"... By the way, I was thinking, I'll tell Vaidehi aunty, she'll bring the first aid kit." Saying this, Shiv started to leave, so Kashi stepped forward, grabbed his hand, and said, "Stop... You won't tell Mom anything, or else I'll break your face!" Kashi made a face, grabbed the collar of Shiv's t-shirt, and brought her fist towards his face, but Shiv placed his hand in the middle of Kashi's punch and lowered it, saying, "You really like to hit, don't you...?" "I'm talking to you directly, so you talk normally too... And don't wander around with your hair open like this... I say, a witch has possessed you!"
Kashi— Doesn't your mouth hurt? You talk so much!!
Shiv— Don't your hands hurt? You hit so much, all the time... Saying this, Shiv took Kashi's hand, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and tied it. Then he started to leave.
Kashi looked at Shiv and said, "Take this handkerchief, if anyone sees it, my mother will see my injury... and then a tsunami will come into my life..." Saying this, Kashi handed the handkerchief to Shiv.
Shiv looked at the handkerchief, which had blood on it, took it, and left from there. Shiv was quite angry when Kashi took out his handkerchief and gave it to him.
Kashi watched Shiv leave and went inside. As soon as Kashi came in, her eyes fell on Adhni ji standing in front, and Kashi stopped in her tracks. She glared at Adhni and went upstairs.
Adhni ji watched Kashi leave and muttered softly... "What were these two doing outside? What was Shiv doing with this Kashi...? Both were outside... Oh dear, my son will be very useful to me..." Saying this, Adhni drank a glass of water from the kitchen, and as she was about to leave, her eyes fell on Vaidehi coming down from the front, and a smile appeared on Adhni's face. And she looked around, searching for something.
Vaidehi ji had gone to Kashi's room and returned. Kashi had a habit of waking up early in the morning to drink tea. Vaidehi ji came down the stairs and came into the kitchen, took the utensils for tea, and took the milk container out of the fridge and placed it on the shelf. She looked around. And as she was about to turn on the gas, Kashi came and grabbed her hand... "Mom, please iron my dress, I have to go today... I just hope the interview goes well... And I'll do this, you just do it quickly!"
Vaidehi ji put down the lighter she was holding and said, "Just make one cup of tea, my dear, I don't like your strong, sharp ginger tea!"
Kashi— Oh God! Then how did you become a tea lover...? Saying this, Kashi glanced at the kitchen and then at Vaidehi ji and said, "Are you feeling cold? I mean, a cold...?"
Vaidehi— Yes, it's been two days. Did you just notice now? Vaidehi ji said, looking at Kashi. Kashi's face showed a different expression. She smiled, put her hand on Vaidehi ji's shoulder, and said, "Go and iron the clothes..." Saying this, Kashi ushered Vaidehi ji out.
As soon as Vaidehi ji left, Kashi came into the kitchen and started looking at the gas stove. She could smell a gas leak. Kashi checked the gas switch, which was fine. Kashi looked at the cylinder below, and it was also fine, but suddenly Kashi's gaze fell on the gas joint pipe, which was cut. Kashi looked at it and, in anger, fixed it and went out. Coming outside, she saw that everyone had woken up. Kashi looked at everyone and, with a worried expression, was about to go upstairs to her room when Vaidehi ji appeared coming down.
Vaidehi ji saw Kashi and said, "What happened, Kashi? Have you made the tea yet...?" Vaidehi ji said, looking at Kashi.
Kashi— Uh... Uh...
Vaidehi— I'll make it, you go to your room.
Kashi— I don't want tea, did you iron the clothes...?
Vaidehi— Sorry, where is the iron, I just came to ask.
Niyati ji— It's there, dear, look in the room, in Neel's room... Saying this, Niyati ji called Kashi to her and said, "Come, I'll make the tea..."
Kashi— No... I wanted to tell you something.
Vaidehi ji— What happened, Kashi? You look worried. Vaidehi ji said, moving towards Kashi.
Kashi— Oh dear, please go and iron the clothes, or else I'll be late, that's why I'm worried. And go and get the iron from Mr. Rawat's room, or else I'll do it, however it turns out!
Vaidehi ji— Ha ha, you'll do it, I know. Saying this, Vaidehi ji went upstairs.
So, Kashi looked at everyone and said, "The kitchen gas pipe is leaking, so please fix it before turning on the gas." Saying this, Kashi went upstairs to her room.
So, Adhni ji heard Kashi's words and saw her plan failing, so she started to get angry. She stamped her foot and left from there.
Niyati ji heard Kashi's words and went into the kitchen. Seeing everyone leave, the grandmother got up and came to the temple and sat there, saying, "Please Kanha, reunite my children. I can't bear to see my Neel's condition. Remove this curse from the house and return our Sarthak to us. Bring Vaidehi back to this house, into our Neel's life... Please Kanha, I know you must have a reason for Vaidehi to come here, fulfill it quickly..." Saying this, the grandmother rested her head on the temple, got up, and sat in the hall.
So, Vaidehi ji came into Neel's room and saw that Neel was not in the room. Vaidehi ji looked around for some time. "Even after fifteen years, your preferences haven't changed, you've kept your room just as I had it years ago."
Neel— You can still keep it like this, right...? Hearing the voice, Vaidehi ji looked back, and there was Neel, wrapped in a towel, shaking his hair. Vaidehi looked at him and said,
Vaidehi— With what right are you saying this to me? I'm nothing to you now. Sometimes I feel Kashi is right that you never loved me, that's why you never trusted me! It seems there was never any trust in our love marriage. All the couples we know are the best, but what's the use of cursing fate...?
Neel looked at Vaidehi and said, looking into her eyes,
To be continued...
Riya Parashar
By what right are you speaking to me? I am nothing to you now. Sometimes I feel Kashi speaks the truth, that you never loved me, that's why you never trusted me. It seems there was never any trust in our love marriage. All the couples we know are the best, but what's the use of cursing fate!
Neil looked at Vaidehi and, looking into her eyes, said,
"I loved you too. You accepted one of my decisions, without ever asking me why I was doing it. I did it out of compulsion. I know how I am living without you and my daughter, without Sarthak. I don't like it either, but there must have been a compulsion, right!"
"What kind of compulsion was it, Neil, that it hasn't ended in fifteen years? One compulsion shook our love, so tell me, what can't that compulsion do!" Vaidehi said, looking at Neil.
Neil took Vaidehi's hand, pulled her towards him, and said, "Because of that same compulsion, I am still away from you all. Otherwise, I would have left this place long ago!"
Vaidehi placed her hand on Neil's chest and said, "You married the one you hated. You did exactly that as soon as I left, didn't you!" Hearing this from Vaidehi's mouth, Neil's fist clenched. Vaidehi pushed Neil away and said, "You know, when you didn't trust me and threw me out of this house, I was shattered. I thought where would I go? I didn't know anyone here, I was an orphan. But an uncle helped me a lot. But one day his daughter-in-law and son also threw me out. I managed my expenses by doing small jobs. After leaving there, we struggled from door to door, but then a young man helped me. Where could I go with my young daughter? Thank God for Gyan, but his mother made us do household chores to live there and get two meals a day. But one day they found out that Kashi is a fighter, and their son Gyan had fallen in love with Kashi, so they..."
"Tell me, Neil, after enduring so much, your image in my mind began to fade. It wasn't that my love had ended, but I had no complaints about my fate. The only regret was being separated from you! When you didn't trust me, how do you expect me to trust you now? Love was done by two people, so why should I bear the burden of trust alone? You could have too! You could have asked me just once, but no! As soon as you found two pieces of evidence against me, you broke my trust. Moreover, along with trust, you ruined our love, our family, everything! And you are still expecting something from me!"
As Vaidehi said all this, tears started to well up in her eyes. Neil reached out his trembling hands and wiped Vaidehi's tears, saying, "Please Vedu, don't cry. I can't see tears in your eyes. I was anxious to meet you myself. But I could never find out your whereabouts. I had found out, but you had taken Kashi away from there, and then you disappeared."
"I love you just as much today. The decision to stay away from you was not mine either. My heart broke into a thousand pieces being away from you. It was not in my hands to stay away from you, I just became a puppet."
"You are hiding something from me..." Vaidehi said, looking into Neil's eyes.
Neil controlled himself, turned around, and shaking his head, said, "What would I hide?" Saying this, Neil went to his wardrobe, opened it, and without looking at Vaidehi, said, "What did you need?"
Vaidehi stepped forward, grabbed Neil's arm, pulled him towards her, and said, "Neil, tell me, what are you hiding from me? Something you can't share with me."
Neil was still standing, thinking. Meanwhile, Kashi, who was standing at the door and had been listening for a long time, clenched her fists and thought to herself, "What is it that Mr. Rawat is hiding from Vedu? I have to find out somehow." Saying this, Kashi put a smile on her face and, entering the room, said,
"Oh Vedu, did you come to get the press or to buy it, Pa..." Kashi suddenly said this word, and Neil and Vaidehi looked at her. Kashi also felt awkward. She closed her eyes, opened them again, and said, "Sorry Mr. Rawat, you will give me the press. I am getting late for the interview." Saying this, Kashi avoided their gaze.
It had been many years since Neil had heard "Papa" from Kashi's mouth. As soon as he heard "Papa" from Kashi, a smile almost appeared on his face because Kashi had said "Sorry" in between and then "Mr. Rawat." Neil looked at Kashi and, giving her the press from the wardrobe, said, "Where are you going for the job?"
"Wherever I have to go, I will go." Saying this, Kashi took the press and left, but at the door, without looking, she said, "Thank you." With that, Kashi left without waiting for Neil's reply.
Vaidehi looked at Kashi and, looking at Neil, said, "She doesn't know how to iron, I'll go do it." Saying this, Vaidehi followed Kashi.

Riya Parashar
It had been many years since Neel had heard "Papa" from Kashi. As soon as he heard "Papa" from Kashi, a fleeting smile appeared on his face because Kashi interrupted herself and said, "Sorry, Mr. Rawat." Neel looked at Kashi and, taking the iron from the cupboard, asked, "Where are you going for the job?"
"Wherever I have to go, I'll go." Saying this, Kashi took the iron and left, but at the door, without looking, she said, "Thank you." After saying this, Kashi left without waiting for Neel's reply.
Vaidehi looked at Kashi and then at Neel, saying, "She doesn't know how to iron, I'll do it." Saying this, Vaidehi followed Kashi.
Kashi entered her room and switched on the iron, staring at it. She looked at her kurta, and as she was about to place it on the iron, Vaidehi ji came in and said, "You don't do it like that, Kashi!" Hearing Vaidehi ji's voice, Kashi clutched the iron in her hand.
Kashi: "Then how is it done?" Kashi turned and said, looking at Vaidehi ji.
Vaidehi ji stepped forward, set up the ironing board correctly, placed the kurta properly on it, and started ironing it well, holding each side. Kashi looked at Vaidehi ji and, making a face, said, "You do it, I'll be right back." Saying this, Kashi picked up her phone and left the room, coming out to the open balcony. Kashi took out her phone and called Pooja. After ringing for a while, when no one answered, Kashi started to get angry. Just as she was about to hang up, Pooja answered the phone, saying, "Sorry, sorry Kashi, I was busy."
Kashi: "Yes, well, stay busy then." Saying this, Kashi made a face.
Pooja: "Sorry yaar, don't be angry, I was genuinely busy with household chores."
Kashi: "Okay, tell me, did you deposit the school fees?"
Pooja: "No... yes... well..." Pooja couldn't speak, her tongue wasn't cooperating.
Kashi: "You didn't deposit it, did you?"
Pooja: "The money..."
Kashi: "Where did it go? I gave it to you for the fees, so where did the money go?"
Pooja remembered and started telling Kashi, "When you guys went yesterday, I had that money in my hand. After you left, as soon as I was about to go home, Kamla Tai came to me and took the money from my fist, saying that you had given her this money to give to her, and she said that you all had been living and eating here for so many days, so this was her money, so she just took the money from me."
Kashi clenched her fist in anger and said, "Where is Gyan?"
"Bhaya Gyan has gone out for some work," Pooja said, sitting down on the chair in distress.
Kashi: "Is Tara going to school?" Saying this, Kashi put the phone on speaker and placed it on the balcony's boundary, looking around for a chair to sit on.
Pooja: "Hmm, but if the fees aren't deposited in two days, they will expel Tara from school. The teacher said so."
Kashi, who had come near the boundary and lightly sat on it, her face showed a strange worry upon hearing Pooja's words. Just as Shiv, who was passing by, saw Kashi, a strange expression appeared on his face seeing her sitting on the boundary. He immediately walked towards Kashi.
Kashi, sitting on the boundary: "You are crazy! You should have told me earlier!" Saying this, Kashi looked behind her when suddenly someone grabbed her from her waist and pulled her down. Kashi suddenly came down. She looked in front and saw Shiv standing there.
Kashi: "Hey oh! Are you crazy? What are you doing?"
"What happened Kashi? Are you alright?" Pooja, hearing Kashi's voice, first made a strange face and asked Kashi, "What happened? Who is it, Kashi?"
Shiv: "If you had fallen... who sits like that, tell me?"
Kashi lowered the phone and, pointing a finger at Shiv, said, "This means you are scared, right?" Saying this, Kashi glared at Shiv and suddenly started laughing loudly, pointing her finger, "Oh my god! Oh my god! Shiv ji is scared of this boundary, I mean, you are afraid of heights!" Wow wow! At least I know one of your weaknesses, Mr. Shiv Rana. Saying this, Kashi started laughing loudly again.
Shiv glared at Kashi and, holding her arm, pulled her back with a jerk, making Kashi gasp for breath. Her eyes widened in shock from the sudden incident. Before Kashi could say anything, Shiv pulled her back again. Kashi became very angry at Shiv's action. Kashi snatched her hand away from Shiv with a jerk, came forward, grabbed his collar, and said, "Don't you understand things in that small brain of yours? Or do you not want to understand what I say? I can't even say that you hear from one side and let it out from the other. I think you don't even let my words reach your ears, that's why you don't understand! See, don't even come near me, whether I live or die, whether I get into trouble, whether my hands, feet, or forehead are in any trouble, please stay away from me! Your constant touching irritates me! If you touch me again, your hand won't be seen!" Saying this, Kashi pushed Shiv back with one hand and left from there.
Shiv paid no attention to anything Kashi said; anger was clearly visible in his eyes. He closed his fist and went to his room from there.
Meanwhile, Kashi came into her room and looked at Vaidehi, who was ironing the kurta and placing it on the bed. Kashi took her dress and went into the washroom.
A little later, everyone was having breakfast together. Kashi was wearing a short kurta, jeans, and a high ponytail, with a plain jacket over the kurta. Kashi always maintained this dressing sense. She wasn't fond of wearing overly fashionable clothes. Kashi looked at everyone and said, "Anmol Uncle, can you tell me this address?"
Anmol looked at Kashi and then at Neel, who became quite sad seeing Kashi. "I can tell you, but brother, you'll miss out, he's going to the office." Kashi, who was showing her mobile, put her phone back in her pocket after hearing Anmol ji's words and glared at everyone, took an apple, and walked out, saying, "Kashi doesn't like to take help." Saying this, Kashi left from there. As soon as she left, Neel looked at Anmol and said, "What was the need? You know what she's like, you should have told her..." Neel felt very bad that Kashi didn't take his help and, hearing his name, didn't take help from Anmol either.
Alok ji: "What can we do, brother? I can't say anything between the children, but Neel, how long will this go on? Talk to her, she's your daughter."
To be continued.....
Riya Parashar
Alok ji said, "What can I do, brother? I can't even speak up amongst the children, but Neel, how long will this go on? Talk to her, she's your daughter."
Sarlock ji said, "Brother is right, Neel. Why are you silent? At least try to talk to her."
Neel said, "Father, Uncle, what do you think? I feel good seeing Kashi like this. She has taken my mistake so much to heart that she can't get those words out of her mind, and even today she only thinks badly of me."
Vaidehi looked at everyone and started to get up and leave. Just then, Grandmother saw her and said, "Vaidehi, why don't you explain to Kashi that she should talk to Neel. Along with Neel, we also made mistakes, but she talks to everyone except Neel; she always talks to him with a sullen face."
Vaidehi lowered her gaze and said, "Fifteen years ago, whatever happened, what was her fault in that? When Neel blamed me for everything, she felt bad, but those things still haven't left her mind. Neel himself filled her heart with bitterness for the word 'father.' Even today, even today, she tells me this, Grandmother, why aren't her father like others, who support her, stay with her? But what can I tell her? There's no need for me to say anything; my Kashi is very sensible." Her anger towards Neel is justified, but she isn't upset with Neel; she gets very angry, but she isn't upset. So, if you want to appease her, you try, Neel, she will agree. But don't give her expensive gifts or anything valuable. She has always been annoyed by gifts and surprises, keep that in mind. If you try, you might win back your daughter."
Shiv was also listening carefully to Vaidehi's words. He took an apple from the table and started cutting it. He looked at Vaidehi, who, after looking at everyone, spoke again, "If you just want to give her something, then bring a smile to her face. And you know how: by helping poor children, by helping people in trouble, and by having ice cream at night. These are her only desires. Otherwise, she isn't fond of expensive things, nor of food or clothes. So, if you want to remove her anger, try. After saying this, Vaidehi ji left from there.
Along with Neel, the whole family was happy hearing Vaidehi's words because they learned a lot about Kashi. A smile appeared on Neel's face. But Adhni was very angry with Vaidehi. She thought to herself, "By any means, I have to bring bitterness into all this. This father and daughter cannot be together. Fifteen years ago, three birds were killed with one stone with great difficulty; this time too, something similar will have to be done."
Shiv saw Adhni, came out from there, and left somewhere in his car.
Meanwhile, Kashi was sitting in an auto. She looked at the time, it was almost ten o'clock. Looking at her mobile, Kashi said, "Oh! Uncle, I have to go for an interview, not to wander in the garden that you're driving like this."
The driver said, "Then you should have gone by plane, daughter. This is an auto, it will run like this. We can't even fly it."
Kashi said, "You can't fly it, but I can. Stop the auto."
The driver asked in surprise, "But why, daughter?"
"Kashi! Hey, just stop it, then I'll tell you." Saying this, Kashi asked the driver to stop the auto. The driver stopped the auto. Kashi quickly got out and looked at the driver and said, "Come out, uncle."
"Oh, but daughter, you..." Kashi interrupted the driver, asking him to be quiet, and herself came forward, sat in the auto, looked at the auto, joined her hands, and said, "Save me, Father." Saying this, Kashi started the auto.
Seeing Kashi's action, the driver held onto the auto and said, "Oh daughter, just tell me if you know how to drive an auto or not? You're remembering Father like this. God bless my auto. Save me, God, she won't leave my auto alive. This is my livelihood, my stomach is fed by this."
Kashi heard the auto driver's words and said, "Oh uncle, why are you getting tense? I'm here."
The driver said, "You are here, that's why I'm so tense, otherwise why would I be tense?"
Kashi said, "Okay, tell me the address, quickly."
The driver looked at the address on Kashi's mobile and said, "Straight, then left, then right, then left again."
Kashi said irritably, "Are you telling me the way to the office or to a maze?" Kashi said, looking around.
After a short while, Kashi stopped the car under a very tall building and got out. She looked around, and as she turned to leave with her phone and purse, just as the driver was about to call out to Kashi, Kashi turned and said, giving the driver the fare, "Here you go, uncle, I wasn't paying attention."
The driver took the money from Kashi's hand and looked at it; it was a hundred-rupee note. The driver looked at Kashi and said, "I'll pay you."
Kashi said as she left, "Keep it, uncle." Saying this, Kashi went from there.
Kashi stood there and looked up. This building was a large, seven-story glass structure. Kashi looked at the building and made a face and said, "..."
To be continued
Don't forget to comment.
Kashi looked up at the building after Vah stood up. It was a seven-story building, large and made of glass. Kashi looked at the building and made a face, saying, "This building will be useful if I pass the interview, otherwise what use is this gathering to me?" Saying this, Kashi made a face and went inside with Vah.
After coming up by lift, Kashi asked the receptionist. She told her to go inside. Kashi looked around; many people had come for the interview. Kashi made a face and came aside and sat on a chair. She saw that many girls had come, but looking at none of them did it seem like they had come for an interview. "Oh God! Have these people come for an interview or to a wedding party? They have come with so much makeup on! They are wearing short dresses, but what can I say now... what do boys want! Damn, if half their figure is visible, that's enough happiness for them!" Saying this, Kashi looked at the girl next to her and said to her, "Hello!"
The girl looked at Kashi and said, "Hello. Have you come for the interview?"
"Is it the interview? Is someone's wedding happening here?" Kashi said, looking around a bit loudly.
Girl: "Hey, are you crazy? If you are in the office, it will obviously be an interview! Does this look like a wedding to you?"
Kashi looked at the girl and said, making a face, "It does seem like it, because look, short dresses and two kilos of makeup! Damn, we don't even use this much at someone's wedding. I don't use makeup at all. If you think about it, formal clothes are used for interviews." But people come here to show their status.
Girl: "Oh... so you just show up like a 'behanji'... you're enough." Saying this, the girl gave a high-five to the girl next to her and started laughing.
Kashi: "What can this girl do... don't you know this? Just tell me, what is wrong with my clothes and will I not get a job here because of these clothes?"
"What's going on here...?" Hearing this voice, everyone looked behind. A boy was standing there; quite a good physique, six feet tall, dusky complexion, wearing a business suit, the boy looked quite handsome.
A boy: "I don't know what these two are arguing about."
As soon as the boy took a step, Kashi suddenly turned back. Kashi's hair tied in a ponytail covered the boy's face. Kashi's foot suddenly hit the boy's shoe, causing Kashi to lose her balance, and just as she was about to fall, the boy caught her by the waist. Kashi was also holding the boy by his shoulder.
Looking at the boy, Kashi said, "If you keep holding me like this, my waist will stiffen, so please stand me up properly." Saying this, Kashi tightly held the boy's shoulder to stand up. The boy stood Kashi up properly and said, looking at her, "What were you arguing about?"
Kashi: "Arguing...? Who was arguing?" Kashi said, looking at the boy.
Girl: "You were arguing just now."
Boy: "You both were arguing, right."
Kashi: "I just said hello. Whatever was said after that, she said it." Kashi said, pointing at the girl.
Girl: "You were the one who said, 'Have you come to a wedding?'"
Kashi: "Go up a bit... Oh sorry, go back to the flashback..." Saying this, Kashi reminded her, "You were the one who asked, 'Have you come for an interview?'" Looking at the boy in the suit, "You tell me, Miss..."
Boy: "Aagam Arora."
Kashi: "Yes, whoever you are... you tell me, is a wedding going on here?"
Aagam: "Shut up! This is an office, not a house or a public place. If you want to give an interview, wait, otherwise both of you leave."
Kashi: "I am not going anywhere." Saying this, Kashi sat there quietly and stared at Aagam. Aagam glared at Kashi and went inside.
After a while, everyone was coming out after giving their interviews one by one. As their turn came, everyone's heartbeats increased. Meanwhile, Kashi was sitting comfortably, watching something on her mobile. When Kashi's turn came, the peon came and called her. Kashi switched off her phone and got up and went inside. As soon as she came inside, her gaze fell on Shiv standing in front. Kashi widened her eyes and stared at Shiv, saying, "You've come here too? Look, I'm telling you... if my interview is ruined because of you, I'll smash your head." Saying this, Kashi looked towards the door and saw Aagam coming inside, holding a file.
Kashi: "Look sir, tell him to go outside, only then I will give the interview."
Hearing Kashi, Aagam looked at Shiv and just as he was about to say something, Shiv looked at Kashi and said, "What did you say? Look, I can't go anywhere."
Kashi: Taking Shiv by the hand and leading him outside, "Why? Will this interview not happen without you?" Kashi asked Shiv at the door.
Everyone stood up from their places hearing Kashi and Shiv's conversation.

Hearing Kashi's words, Aagam looked at Shiv. Before Shiv could say anything, he looked at Kashi and said, "What did you say? Look, I can't go anywhere!"
Kashi took Shiv's hand and led him out, saying, "Why? Won't this interview happen without you?" She asked Shiv as they reached Kashi's door.
Everyone stood up from their seats after hearing Kashi and Shiv's conversation. Shiv looked at everyone and then at Kashi, saying, "Look, this interview of yours cannot happen without me."
Kashi: "Why? Are you the CEO of this company?"
Aagam: "Look, leave them!"
Kashi: "Don't interfere, sir. I know people like this very well, so you should stay out of it. And anyway, this is a personal matter between me and him, so I will handle it." And you... looking at Shiv... "Look, just leave, otherwise I... I... I will complain about you!"
A girl: "Is this girl crazy? What is she doing? Talking to the CEO like this! This way, forget getting a job, they won't even let her give the interview." The girl's voice reached everyone's ears, including Kashi's, in the quiet atmosphere. As soon as Kashi heard the CEO's name, she let go of Shiv's hand.
Kashi: "You... you... you are the CEO? But this is AR Groups, isn't it? Oh! You mean Mr. Rana... sorry Shiv, I should have known!"
Everyone was still looking at Kashi, hearing Shiv's name and "you" from her mouth. When Shiv heard his name from Kashi's mouth, he felt quite good. He looked at Kashi and said, "Come inside, you've said enough..." Shiv left from there.
As soon as he left, Kashi glared at Aagam and hitting his arm, said, "Couldn't you have told me!"
Aagam: "Only if you had listened..." Saying this, Aagam glared at Kashi, and she went inside. Aagam placed his hand on his arm and said, "What a strange girl! I'm her boss, yet she hit me and left! What a strange girl, she didn't listen to me and instead lectured me!" Saying this, Aagam went inside with a grimace.
Meanwhile, the girl standing outside was laughing at Kashi. She looked at everyone and said, "It seems like it's going to be fun now! The boss will scold her a lot!"
A boy: "I don't think so, because the way she was talking, it seemed like they knew each other beforehand. Anyway, whatever happens, I just hope they don't scold that girl!"
Shiv was sitting on his chair, staring at Kashi, who was sitting quietly, staring at the files on the table.
Shiv: "Speak! Why didn't you tell me you had an interview here?"
Kashi: "Are you my father?"
Shiv: "No... but you can give me a direct answer to what I asked!"
Kashi: "Since you're not, I don't find it necessary to tell you." As Kashi said this and got up to leave, Shiv's voice reached her ears, with a strange gruffness and anger.
Shiv: "You don't even talk to your father, so you don't tell him anything either, right!"
Hearing Shiv's words, Kashi's fists tightened. She glared at Shiv and said, "Don't mix personal life and professional life!" As Kashi said this and started to leave, Shiv said again,
"So, please give your interview, Miss Kashi Rawat..." Shiv's words made Kashi turn and look at him. Shiv gestured for Kashi to sit down with one hand and began questioning her.
A little later, Kashi was sitting on a chair outside. A little later, Aagam came out and said, "Four people have been selected; three as employees and one as a personal assistant. Their names are Miss Kavya, Suresh Gandhi, Nimita, and Miss Kashi."
Everyone was happy to hear their names, but Kashi's face showed no emotion. She looked at Aagam and said, "I need to meet Shiv!"
Aagam: "Sorry, Sir doesn't want to meet anyone right now."
Kashi: "I'll deal with you..." (in her mind) "I'll meet you at home in the evening." Saying this, Kashi glared at Aagam, who also glared back and said, "You are Shiv Sir's Personal Assistant. Come to the office early tomorrow!"
Kashi: "What...? Personal Assistant? And his?" Saying this, Kashi made a face and left.
Meanwhile, when Shiv looked out the window, he saw Kashi leaving. Shiv gave a strange smile, returned to his chair, and started working.
On one hand, Kashi was happy about getting the job, but on the other hand, her mood was completely ruined because of Shiv's company and being his personal assistant. Kashi quickly got into an auto and left for home.
Meanwhile, Vaidehi ji was going towards Neel's room, talking to someone on the phone from downstairs. Just then, Adhni stopped Vaidehi by raising her hand.
Vaidehi took the phone away from her ear, looked at Adhni, and said, "Your habit is still the same, interfering! Improve it! Keeping an eye on someone else's family after leaving your own... Sorry, sorry! It's not good to just sit and wait for someone else's downfall!"
Adhni: "Oh oh... And who is talking, the one who, after losing to my one trick, has been away from her husband and home for fifteen years, and they still haven't accepted you."
Vaidehi: "I think you are behind all this too, that's why you are ruling here as soon as I left! You broke your own destiny by leaving Pratik bhaiya! Adhni, you didn't care about Bhaiya, nor your son! But thank goodness, it doesn't seem like your son has taken after you... he is very different!"
Adhni looked at Vaidehi and replied with a crooked smile, "Pratik, Pratik! My head hurts listening to this name, so just be quiet! And as for my son, no one can understand him, not even me. He is absolutely not what he appears to be! Keep this in your mind, it will be very useful to you, that's why I'm telling you!"
Vaidehi folded her hands and glared at Adhni, saying, "Instead of explaining to me... you should understand yourself, lest this habit of your son's becomes too costly for you, and your entire plan is ruined! So you also remember what I'm saying, I never thought of interfering like you! You and your thinking are both utterly despicable!"
Adhni: "Seeing you, it doesn't seem like you have any fear of losing your son... not even an iota of difference, right? What kind of mother are you, Vaidehi! You just said it's good that Neel is away from you, otherwise you yourself would have left! You think Neel is a despicable person!"
Vaidehi looked at Adhni strangely after hearing her words. She couldn't understand what Adhni was saying. "What are you saying? And saying these foolish words doesn't achieve anything! When did I say all this? And as for your words, no one believes you! Just after all this, you are stubbornly staying here with your son!"
Adhni: "Here we go! It's not even the time to speak the truth anymore..." Saying this, Adhni walked away. Vaidehi looked back at the departing Adhni and saw Komal ji standing there. Vaidehi saw her, smiled, and came towards her, saying, "Mom, where is Aunt?"
Komal ji: "Is this woman really crazy..." Saying this, Komal ji started laughing.
Vaidehi looked at Komal ji and said, "She thought you would get angry and say something unpleasant, that's why she said all that!"
To be continue
Adhni - Well, the times aren't even for speaking the truth anymore... saying this, Adhni left from there. When Vaidehi looked back at Adhni, Komal ji was standing in front of her. Vaidehi saw her, smiled, and came to her, saying, "Mom, where is Auntie?"
Komal ji - Is this woman really mad... saying this, Komal ji started laughing.
Vaidehi - looked at Komal ji and said, "She thought you would get angry with me and say something or the other... that's why she said all that."
Komal ji - We still don't have to make those same mistakes, we made many before, I still regret that. You have forgiven me, Vaidehi, but I will never forgive myself.
Vaidehi - Forget it, Auntie... I forgot long ago, then why do you hurt your heart by keeping it in your mind?
Komal ji - Okay, tell me, what did you need from sister?
Vaidehi - hitting her forehead, "I forgot because of you. Neil told me to give a file to Anmol bhaiya. Oh my god! He has a meeting, I just came to tell you that Mom will bring the file to my room."
Komal ji - Your room is also there, isn't it? You go and bring it, and give it to Anmol downstairs, he must be waiting.
Vaidehi - Huh! No Auntie, it was! Saying this, Vaidehi looked at Komal ji. Komal ji, placing her hand on her head, said, "We'll make that decision later, for now, bring the file."
Vaidehi came to Neil's room from there, took the file, and came back out. Just then, she saw Kashi quickly going into her room. Vaidehi saw her leaving and started going down the stairs with the file, when suddenly she saw Sorabhi leaving from there.
Vaidehi - Sorabhi... As soon as Sorabhi heard her name, she looked at Vaidehi and said, "Yes, Bhabhi, tell me."
"Do me a favor, Anmol bhaiya is standing outside with this file, take it to him, it's for Neil's important meeting, that's why this is for Anmol bhaiya..." Vaidehi said this and stopped.
"You think too much, give it to me, I'll give it to Anmol." Saying this, Sorabhi took the file and went outside. As soon as she left, Vaidehi looked towards Kashi's room upstairs and went into her room.
There Kashi was sitting on the bed, shaking her legs vigorously. When Vaidehi saw her, she said, "Hi! What are you doing, Kashi? Who does this, dear? Your legs will hurt at night. What's the tension? Tell me."
Kashi glared at Vaidehi once and started shaking her legs again. Vaidehi placed her feet on Kashi's legs and, touching her face, asked, "What happened? Tell me... is everything okay? Didn't you get the job? It's okay, dear, if you didn't..."
Kashi - I got the job, Mom, but... saying this, Kashi started looking ahead.
Vaidehi looked at Kashi and said, "Meaning you got the job and you're sad? Why? What happened, dear?" Kashi held Vaidehi's hand and made her sit on the bed, saying, "I got the job, but ask where and in whose company I got it!" When Vaidehi heard Kashi's question, she looked at her, and Kashi said again, "In Shivrana's company, he is the CEO there... Just thinking about this is messing with my head, I don't like this boy at all... I get irritated just seeing that person around me for a short while. Now, besides home, I have to tolerate him at the office too, oh my god! I'll die like this!" Kashi said, looking up and gritting her teeth.
Vaidehi - Nothing will happen, he is such a good boy, he talks so lovingly.
Kashi - He is your co-wife's son, and you find him cute and lovely! So you work in my place, anyway, you like him a lot these days!
"Did I smell something burning... I smell a lot!" Vaidehi said, looking at Kashi.
Kashi - Mom, where are my gold earrings?
Vaidehi - What happened? Did you need them for something? I've kept them to give you at your wedding.
Kashi heard about the wedding and got up, saying, "I'm not going anywhere leaving you, so get this out of your mind and let me enjoy these four days of life peacefully. Why do you try to take my life by mentioning marriage? Let me live here!" Saying this, Kashi got up herself and left.
"Why does she seem so upset? It seems something happened to her today... Oh God! Why doesn't this girl share her problems with anyone? When she's in trouble, the problem doesn't seem as big as her words and her this uninvited guest, I mean her anger comes... What should I do? She won't tell me her problem... Pooja knows, but she's also her friend, she'll tell her everything, the opposite!"
Kashi's mind was not working at all. She had come out to the garden. It was four in the afternoon. Gentle rays of sunlight were still coming into the garden. Kashi put her hand on her head and leaned her head against the chair, placing both hands on her forehead, closed her eyes, and sat there silently. It was difficult to say what was going on in Kashi's mind.

Kashi's mind was completely blank. She had come out of there into the garden. It was four in the afternoon. Rays of sunlight were still filtering into the garden. Kashi placed her hand on her head, leaned her head back against the chair, placed both her hands on her forehead, and sat there quietly with her eyes closed. It was difficult to say what was going on in Kashi's mind.
"I don't understand what to do. The money I had, I already gave it to Pooja, and now what should I do? Mom will never give me that gold thing. It's wrong to even ask her; instead, she'll ask me a thousand questions. If I tell her, she'll get worried on top of everything. And I don't want help from anyone here. It's better to live without any help than to take help from them. Oh God! Is this life or what? Damn, one problem doesn't go away, another one is already standing there!!"
"This is too much! Right now, with me..." Kashi said, removing her hands and sitting up properly.
"Who has crossed the limit with you? Tell me! Maybe I can help." Hearing this voice, Kashi looked behind her and saw Shiv standing there.
"You..." Kashi said, making a face. Seeing Kashi speak like that, Shiv adjusted the sleeves of his coat and, sitting next to Kashi, said, "Oh my God! I haven't done anything, yet you took my name. And when I do something, I don't think I'll be seen anywhere. Anyway, can I know why you are taking my name?"
Kashi: "How did you start talking to me so nicely? This morning you were so angry! Tell me, how did you change yourself so much in one day?" Kashi looked at Shiv with questioning eyes.
Hearing Kashi's question, Shiv's expression changed for a moment. He maintained a smile on his face and, looking at Kashi, said, "Are you my enemy or something? That I should keep fighting with you, and now I'm absolutely not free enough to pick fights with you as I come and go?"
Kashi looked at Shiv and said, "No." Shiv looked at Kashi and replied, "You are neither my enemy, nor a friend, nor anything else, so tell me, what will I gain by being so sour towards you? That's why, and yesterday you slapped me, right? That's why I was speaking like that."
Kashi turned her neck from side to side and, looking at Shiv, said, "But I haven't even apologized for the slap yet, yet you are talking to me so nicely."
Shiv (inwardly): "Oh God! Who made her a girl? Her name and job should have been 'questioning machine,' right? This is truly a tough nut to crack. What should I say? How much she talks, man! What should I say that I... No, no! If I say it directly, she'll strangle me right here and send me to heaven without any reason."
Kashi was watching Shiv, who was making strange expressions on his face. Kashi looked at Shiv and waved her hand in front of him. Shiv didn't respond. So Kashi grabbed him by the shoulder and shook him hard.
"Oh hello! Did you fall asleep while talking or get lost in someone's thoughts? Thinking about something... but you lost in someone else's thoughts... no, no! The lines don't match. I said something to you, are you making up lines or thinking of lying?" Kashi asked, turning Shiv's hand.
Shiv: "Forget it, tell me what you were thinking?"
Kashi: "You are nothing to me. You just said it, so there's no question of me telling you anything." As Kashi got up to leave, Shiv grabbed her hand and pulled her towards him. Because of being pulled so suddenly, Kashi fell into Shiv's lap. Shiv looked into Kashi's eyes and said, "Does everything need to be explained with words now? Some things should be understood by humans without speaking."
Kashi averted her gaze from Shiv and said, "Why can't you speak? You talk the whole day. Your tongue moves a lot when it comes to fighting and scolding me. So what happened now? And are you talking nonsense?"
Shiv looked into Kashi's eyes and as he gently tried to move the hair from her face with his hand, Kashi caught Shiv's hand with one of hers and said, "What were you doing? Stop these cheap antics, or by God! I'll beat you so badly that you won't even remember yourself. And I told you, I don't like anyone touching me. If you don't remember, then engrave it in your brain, heart, and liver now." After saying this, Kashi forcefully pulled Shiv's hand away, stood up by grabbing his collar, and stared at Shiv in anger as she walked away. "I don't know where all these specimens come to me!"
Shiv watched Kashi leave, stood up seriously, looked around, straightened his coat, and was about to go inside when his gaze fell on Aadhni standing aside in the garden. Aadhni smiled upon seeing Shiv, so Shiv also smiled slightly and went inside.
Instead of going to her room, Kashi came to her mother's room and saw Vaidehi doing some work. Kashi came to her and said, "Mom, I needed some money, do you have any?"
Kashi went to her mother's room. Vaidehi was busy with some work. Kashi went up to her and said, "Mom, I needed some money, do you have any?"
Vaidehi looked at Kashi and said, "What I had saved is here, nothing else."
Kashi didn't say anything and walked out. She was lost in her thoughts when her hand went to her neck. She was wearing a very beautiful gold chain with a pendant. "Uff! Only you can help me. Thank God, you appeared at the right time..." Saying this, Kashi came to the front of her room, took the chain off her neck, and went out of the house. Someone was watching Kashi leave.
As soon as Kashi left, Shiv came out behind her and, adjusting his coat, started to follow Kashi. But as he came downstairs, he collided with Niyati ji, who was arriving.
Shiv – Sorry, sorry, auntie!
Niyati ji – Be careful, son. Are you going somewhere in such a hurry? Is everything okay?
Shiv – Yes, auntie, just had some work. Sorry. Saying this, Shiv went out of the house.
Kashi took an auto and arrived at the market. She saw a shop, stopped the auto driver, got out, and said, "How much is it, brother?"
Auto driver – Fifty rupees.
Kashi placed her hand on the auto and, glaring at the auto driver, said, "Oh come on! You brought me to the market, not to heaven, that it's fifty rupees!"
Driver – Who wants to go to heaven, that too for fifty rupees!
Kashi – Hey! I'm not new here, understand? Don't try to rip anyone off by asking for fifty. If you do, you'll only see this auto in heaven. And yes, it's thirty rupees, but now I'll give you twenty because I don't have money and I also need to go home.
Auto driver – You don't look like you do, the way you're stopping at this shop and saying you have no money, then what are you doing here? Anyway, give me the money, I don't want any trouble.
Kashi gave the auto driver twenty rupees and said, "Don't ever come in front of me again... or else..."
Auto driver – Or else what will you do?
Kashi placed her hand on the auto's meter and said, "Next time, I'll travel without paying!" Understand? Saying this, Kashi pushed his meter down and left.
The auto driver watched Kashi leave and, hitting his head, said, "Don't know whose face I saw!" Saying this, the auto driver left.
Kashi came inside and, looking around, approached the shopkeeper and stood in front of him. She was about to present the chain and pendant she held in her hand when the shopkeeper's voice reached her ears.
"What should I show you, ma'am?" the man said, looking around and then at Kashi.
Kashi looked up at the man and said, "I don't want to buy... I want to sell this chain."
"Sell it?" Isn't it stolen? the man asked, staring at Kashi with questioning eyes and looking at the chain.
Kashi glared at the man, clenched her chain in her fist, and said, "Do I look like a thief to you? Look, not everyone has to steal or sell stolen goods. Sometimes, we have to sell out of compulsion." I don't have the bill for this. I have it from this child.
The man looked at Kashi and said, "If it's so dear to you, then don't sell it, pledge it. You can take it back when you have money."
Kashi – Okay. Then pledge it for two months and have me sign the papers.
The shopkeeper looked at Kashi and said, "We don't do any work without papers." Saying this, the shopkeeper extended his hand, and Kashi handed over her chain. The shopkeeper looked at it and started to weigh it. Looking at the chain, the shopkeeper told Kashi, "I can give you twenty thousand three hundred rupees."
Kashi heard the shopkeeper and, looking at him, said, "It was a gold chain, brother, not made of cheap silver."
"Then when did I say it was cheap, madam? It's priced according to the current rate," the shopkeeper said, looking at Kashi.
Kashi – Alright, give it. Saying this, Kashi sat on a chair there.
After some time, the shopkeeper presented a paper to Kashi and asked her to sign it. Kashi signed it and said, "Give me the other copy." The shopkeeper gave Kashi a paper along with a receipt and handed over twenty thousand three hundred rupees in cash. Kashi checked them, put them in her bag, and went out.
Shiv, who was sitting in the shop, had heard everything Kashi and the shopkeeper had said. He had taken a step towards the shopkeeper when Kashi's words came to his mind, "You are not my father, so don't interfere in my matters." Remembering these words, Rudraansh stepped back and went out of the shop.
Kashi came out of the shop and stood outside. She made a phone call and started talking, "Hey Akash, where are you? Listen, I have to give you this money, please tell me where I can find you?" Kashi said, looking around.
