"Did we miss anything?", Asked Kareena while getting inside the room.

I noticed that She is not alone along with her there is a boy. Who is he?

Maa nodded her head in denial while Mamma said,

"Nothing important my big devils Raj and Riya were pulling each others leg."

"Mom"

"Mamma"

Both Raj and Riya said disappointedly while we all giggled.

When Riya has told me that she loves to pull the legs of Raj I thought she is just joking but I guess she genuinely loves it because she never leave any chance to do that.

I felt so good to be back with my family. Thank you God thank you so much for saving my life for bringing me back.

"How are you feeling Di?", Kareena asked.

"I am here sitting with you all nothing else I need. I feel like I am the most luckiest girl of this world.", I said and the tears of happiness started coming out of my eyes.

Raj sat down Infront of me and wiped out the tears from my cheeks and said,

"I had told you Una no more crying and no more taking stress."

"No, I am not taking any stress. In fact I am very happy. Trust me Raj.", I explained him.

"I trust you but you know na I hate tears.", Raj said while acting like Rajesh Khanna.

I hit him teasingly on his shoulder and blushed slightly.

"Doctor when we are allowed to take her home.", Enquired Paa.

"First let me examine her then only I will be able to answer your questions Mr Singhania. So, I request you all to please vacate the room.", Doctor said.

Everybody one by one went outside. Raj was also getting up to leave but I grabbed his hands and looked at him with my puppy eyes pleadingly. He looked at the doctor questioningly.

"Don't worry Raj you can stay.", He assured and I smiled brightly.

Doctor ask me few questions regarding the pain in my wounds and I answered him honestly. He lifted my eyelids to examine then he asked me to open my mouth wide and bring out my tounge he examined under my mouth with the help of his torch then he measured by blood pressure and my heart rate using his stethoscope.

"Much better than I had expected. I must say Mr Raj your presence means a lot to her.", The doctor said while looking at Raj.

Raj's smile widened after listening whatever the doctor said. He looked at me teasingly and I lowered my head shyly.

"I suggest you to stay with her the most.", The doctor suggested.

"Four more days only Doc.", Raj wishpered.

Initially I didn't understand what he meant by four days but soon I realised that we both are getting married.

"Well she is absolutely fine you can take her home but don't let her do any physical work its not good for her wounds and it will also slowdown her recovery.", Warned the doctor.

Raj nodded his head in approval and then said,

"Thank you doctor. Soon we both are getting married and you are already invited. I will send you the details and I don't want to listen any excuses."

With that the doctor left and once again my whole family entered the room and started asking about the doctor's conclusion.

Raj informed them about my speedy recovery and also said that doctor have approved my discharge.

Maa, Paa, Mamma, Papa, Riya and Karan already left for home to me. Raj went to the reception area to complete the formalities regarding my discharge while I changed my clothes with the help of Kareena.

"I want to ask you something Kareena", I said.

"Yes Di I am listening.", She assured.

"When you came to my room I saw a boy with you. Who is he? and What happened to his head?", I asked.

"Umm Di! He is Rahul and he got injured while searching you.", She said.

I looked at her shockingly and said,

"Oh God! Because of me he got injured and I didn't even knew about it. Can you please take me to his room? I want to thank him."

"No Di", She said.

I pouted sadly but she smiled and said,

"Relax Di. He himself is coming here to meet you."

I looked at her confusedly.

"Don't look at me like that. Actually, his doctor also discharged him along with you and.."

"May I come in?", Said Rahul interrupting her.

"Oh! Yes Rahul please come in. I am really sorry because of me you got injured and thank you very much for helping.", I said.

"Don't make me feel like a stranger by thanking me.", He said sadly.

"No not at all you are no more a stranger. For me now you are just like my family member.", I assured him.

"All done ready to leave.", Raj declared while entering the room.

Me and Raj left for home while Kareena went along with Rahul. I requested Rahul to let Kareena stay with us until Riya and Karan's wedding and he accepted my request but to my surprise Kareena denied and said that she can't leave Rahul alone in this condition and promised that she won't miss anything and will come to stay after Rahul's recovery.

"What are you thinking?", Raj enquired.

"About Rahul and Kareena.", I said.

"Your sister is fool just like I was when I had rejected you.", He said.

I looked at him confusedly.

"Rahul loves her a lot and can do anything for her still she is pushing him away. I don't know why she is doing this? I can see that she also have some feelings for him.", He said.

"Maybe she is scared!", I said doubtfully.

"Hmm maybe?", He agreed.

After going through with all such things it's not easy for a person to believe someone so easily. Sometimes it becomes their mindset not to trust anyone and I guess Kareena's feelings are also similar.

Raj stopped the car Infront of my house and went out. I opened the gate and tried to get out by my own but Raj came and held my hand for support.

The moment I came out of his car he shut the door and lifted me up in his arms.

"Raj I can walk..", I tried to protest.

"Did I ask for your suggestion?", He enquired.

I shook my head in denial.

"So keep quiet and enjoy the ride.", he said and I blushed shyly.

Both Maa and Mamma are already standing on the main gate to welcome us.

Maa did some rituals to remove the effect of evil eye and after finishing it she allowed us to enter the house. Raj is still holding me bridal style.

I felt so embarrassing infront of Maa and Mamma. I requested him numerous times to put me down but he glared at me while I shut my mouth scaredly.

After we enter the house he climbed up the stairs. I felt pity for him because walking is different but climbing the stairs. I know that I am not too heavy but still!

After entering the room he helped me to lie down on the bed and kissed my forehead and said,

"I am going home to freshen up but I promise I will come back soon."

"Who told you Bhai that you are allowed to come back?", Riya asked while entering the room.

Both me and Raj looked at her questioningly.

"For your kind information from now on you both are not allowed to meet each other until you get married.", She said.

"And who made this rule?", Raj asked while folding his arms infront of his chest.

"Come on Bhai! Don't spoil the fun. I know Bhabhi needs you but I promise I will stay here with her and will not leave her alone.", She pleaded.

"But..", Riya didn't let him finish and said.

"Please Bhai it's the matter of only four day then Bhabhi will be all yours."

Raj looked at me questioningly and I looked at Riya. She is pleading me with her expressions. I nodded my head and said,

"Only four days Raj."

"But Una doctor..", I cut him in the middle and said,

"I will take care of myself. I promise."

I kept my hand on his and squeezed it lightly to assure him.

"Okay as you wish.", He said sadly and then left.

"I am sorry Bhabhi but it's a part of wedding ritual.", said Riya and I nodded my head understandingly.

"Now you take some rest Mamma said that tomorrow we will again continue our shopping. Yeah! I am so excited.", She said.

I looked at her horribly. Shopping! Again! No.

"Ummm Riya! I don't think....umm...you know in this condition I will be able to go for shopping.", I said hesitantly because I don't want to spoil her excitement.

"Oh no Bhabhi. You don't have to come with us. You will stay here and rest.", She said and I sighed in relief. Thank God!

"Okay! You take some rest I will come after sometime.", She said and went out.

Maa came to my room with some hot soup and feed me with her own hands then Paa came with a full glass of milk with turmeric and made me drink it forcefully because I don't like milk.

I felt so tired because of resting whole day. I carefully stood up from the bed and went towards my balcony it's evening and I love evening wind. I sat down on a chair while enjoying the view and the fresh air.

Suddenly I heard a voice and lean down to have a look at the source of the sound. I saw a silhouette of a man trying to climb up to reach my balcony. Oh God! He is trying to come up. I scaredly rushed inside the room and locked the door of my balcony.

'What if this is one of the Ranga's man and has came to kidnap me once again?'
