EPISODE 18
The episode starts with RagLak sitting in the garden near the bonfire…
Both are feeling too shy to speak to each other…
Lakshya “Isn’t it a bit awkward..?”
Ragini “Bit..? It’s too awkward… I mean… I never imagined in my most beautiful dream that I would marry you… Yaa several times you took me on a date but that used to be only a dream…”
Lakshya looks at her in surprise…
Ragini realizes what she said just now… She blushes…
Lakshya looks at her and smiles…
Lakshya “Ragini… On a serious note… What do you feel…?”
Ragini “Huh..?”
Lakshya “I mean about me , us , our relation… Do you want to agree to this alliance..?”
Ragini is abt to say something but just then she sees Kavya peeping… And stops…
Lakshya “What happened…? Say..”
Ragini “Lakshya… Actually , am… What to say… I don’t know… I like you… I feel better when I am with you… I want to share every happiness and sorrow with you… I don’t know what this feeling is but I am sure that this is not love…
Mere dil mein aapki jagah even I don’t know… But I know this much that aapke liye mere dil mein Jo feeling hai wo uss feeling se Jada hai no Rohan ke liye hai magar us feeling se kam hai Jo kabhi Kabir ke liye tha…”
Lakshya listens to all this…
Lakshya “Hmmm…”
He is sitting joining his hands…
Ragini “Aap batao… What do you feel..”
Lakshya “After listening to you , I think you consider me as you friend… A friend on whom you can rely… Right..?”
Ragini nods…
Lakshya “Ragini —”
Ragini “Hmmmm…”
Lakshya “Kehte hain pyar mein junoon hai magar dosti mein sukoon hai… Pyar ke junoon KO tmne bhi dekha hai Aur Maine bhi… Kya tum dosti ke is sukoon KO lifetime ke liye mehsus Karna chahti ho…? Will you be my best friend forever..?”(It is said that love has passion but friendship has sooth… Both of us have seen love’s passion… Will you experience friendship’s sooth for life time…?)
Lakshya says this and forwards his hand…
Ragini looks on…
Lakshya ” Say fast… Offer is limited to 12 midnight only… ”
Ragini laughs… Lakshya smiles…
She nods and keeps her hand on his…
Lakshya “Let us go then…”
Ragini nods…
They get up and turn…
They see whole family standing there… They make out their answer the moment they see each other holding hands…
All are very happy… Ragini blushes… She runs and hugs Sharmishtha…
AP , DP , Shekhar and Sharmishtha blesses RagLak…
Dadi fixes RagLak’s roka the next day…
Rohan “Bhai…. Roka ‘s organization is my duty… After all its my best friend’s roka…”
All agree…
Kabir angrily clenches his fist and leaves…
Kavya happily hugs Lakshya…
Ragini feels uneasy seeing this…
Swara notices it…
All go to sleep in order to sleep so that they will wake up early for the preparations…
RagLak greet each other good night…
Swara “Ragini… Come with me… I want to talk with you for sometime…”
Ragini nods and they both go to Ragini’s room…
Swara “What is all this Ragini..?”
Ragini “MATLAB…?”
Swara “Mtlb ki I heard your and Bhai’s dialogues on pyar and dosti…”
Ragini looks down…
Swara “Look at me… What is all this…? What does it mean…?”
Ragini ” It means that we consider each other only as friends… We don’t love each other… ”
Swara “Shut up… Aayi Bari… Don’t love each other… Don’t lie… And at least not to me… Stupid… Tmhari aankhoin me dikhta hai ki tum Bhai se kitna pyar krti ho…”
Ragini looks at her in shock… Kaun tujhe from M.S Dhoni plays in background…
Swara “What happened Ragini..?”
Ragini “Bhabhi… Yes… I have feelings for him… But he doesn’t have…”
Swara “And who told you so…”
Ragini “He himself… He only told me that first love is first love and he cannot forget it…”
Swara “Then you have to make him move on… And you can easily do it… You have to use your weapon… You are so beautiful…
Not only in appearance but also by heart… Just make Bhai realize your beauty… And your work will be done…”
Ragini thinks but then she denies and says that she is happy that Lakshya considers her as his friend…
Swara “But then also consider my suggestion just once…”
Ragini is in thoughts… Swara greets her and leaves…
It’s morning…
Ragini’s jewelry is broken and she is going to Sharmishtha to tell this to her as she has to wear it in Roka.. She is going but just then someone pulls her by her arms…
The person shuts her mouth by hand…
She sees the face and glares…
It’s Kabir…
Ragini “How dare you…? Leave me right now…”
Kabir “Not so easily… What is going on..? What is all this..?”
Ragini “Leave me… Can’t you see my alliance with Lakshya is fixed…”
Kabir angrily clutches her arms tightly… She winces in pain…
Kabir “Exactly… Tm to mujhse pyar krti thi na… To shadi Lakshya se kyu..?”
Ragini “Exactly… Main tmse pyar krti thi… But not anymore… I have moved on and it would be better if u also do the same…and leave me on your own else I also know how to get free…”
Kabir “Really then show me how you will get free from me… I cannot loose so easily… You just love me and will continue to do so…”
He bends forward to kiss her…
She resists…
She then stamps on his feet…
He gets a jerk and moves back wincing in pain…
Ragini shows him attitude…
He rages towards her rising his hands…
But she twists his hand warning him to not to do this daring again else she will break his one hand and put it on his other hand…
She then pushes him and leaves…
*Precap*
RagLak’s roka ceremony starts… All are happy and dance…
Later , Rohan and Ragini come to place…
Ragini is addressed as Cheif there… She smiles…
Later , panditjee comes to the palace and tells about the karwachauth puja and a puja that all suhagan and would be suhangans have to do in the morning…
Ragini listens this and thinks…
