*********************************************

Abhira lay sad and quiet on the couch of the guest room. In the last 5 months her life changed so much. Her mumma left her, she became the Poddar's eldest bahu. And today? she was fighting against them. Lastly, her husband Armaan who promised till extents that he would take care of her, but alas. Ruhi was above all. As Abhira turned she saw Armaan standing beside her couch. Staring at her. 

"What are you doing here? Ruhi's waiting for you.." Abhira said angrily 

"Sleeping in the guest room? You've taken my pillows." Armaan said 

"Oh yeah..take the pillows." Abhira says throwing the pillows at Armaan.

As she does that. Abhira's phone rings and the user shows Prashant. She mutters something to herself and this makes Armaan uneasy. 

"Hey! Sorry yaar...had to ask where exactly was the call recorded?" Prashant asked 

"Oh my gosh! and you're stuck on this?" Abhira laughed 

"Sorry ma'am, please  tell me..I can't get scolded by Dev sir." 

" It's in the mail attachment I sent today morning. Check." Abhira said 

"Ah..it's not there." Prashant complained loud enough for Armaan to listen 

Armaan's blood boiled even more. This Prashant had called his wife around 3-4 times and he hated how happy she was. Now 1 am? Before Abhira could reply Armaan snatched the phone and disconnected the call. Abhira stared at him with an open mouth. 

"What the heck Armaan?? I was talking to my colleague" Abhira said snatching her phone

"Abhira, it's 1 am..why at this hour??" Armaan angrily asked 

"Well, just tell that you cannot tolerate me working against Dadisa." 

"I know I will win this case Abhira, so whether you stay awake at 3 am or 1 am to work doesn't bother me but there are some rules and regulations in this house."  Armaan glared 

"Don't let overconfidence become your weakness Mr Poddar" Abhira smirked 

"You too..Mrs Poddar." Armaan said walking away." 

"Ughh...this khadusmaan!" Abhira thought to herself before sleeping. 

*******************************************
MORNING 

"Everyone assemble down here!" Dadisa said banging the spoon against the steel plate.

"What's the matter ma sa?" Phuphasa queried 

"Yeahh..mummy sa what's wrong?" Manisha joined

"Dadisa.." Armaan and Roohi came along. 

Everyone stared at Dadisa blankly. No one knew what exactly was to happen. That's when they noticed dadisa's eyes glued to Abhira. Her glare was scarier then ever. Abhira payed no heed and continued to prepare her breakfast. That's when Dadisa called her. 

"Ji Dadisa..?" Abhira said while going through the case documents. 

"Aay Ladki! leave those documents at once." Dadisa said

"No..can't. More?" Abhira replied making dadisa angrier than ever.

"LEAVE THE DOCUMENTS." Dadisa said louder. 

"No. Can't. Anything more?" Abhira looked directly in Dadisa's eyes. 

"ABHIRA." Dadisa shouted 

"What dadisa? seriously why? why are you playing with your health. You know that your BP rises ultimately so please, not for me but for your family, don't scream. I won't be doing anything as you say. Lawyers go according to themselves not according to others." Abhira smiled

"How dare you.." Ruhi said 

"Oh Ruhi..I dare very much. Now done? can I leave? I have an important meeting which I cannot  miss." Abhira said as she walked boldly through dadisa's stares 

"ARMAAN." Dadisa shouted 

"Ji dadisa.." Armaan whispered as slow as possible 

"Control your wife. We need to convince her to not fight. Dev Shikawat's team has good amount of evidence and I CANNOT END UP IN JAIL." Dadisa ordered. 

"What do you mean Dadisa..you didn't do anything right? then why bother?" Armaan asked confused 

"W-well..yeah. But if evidence is stronger than ever, even if its fake then we will lose Armaan. You don't want dadisa to go to jail. Don't you?" Dadisa said cupping Armaan's face.

"Yeah dadisa..but i'll never let you go to jail. We will win this case."  Armaan reassured dadisa.

"Hmm..I know we will. We have the best lawyer with us. Now..let's focus on Ruhi." Dadisa smiled 

Armaan and Ruhi froze. Ruhi silently prayed that Armaan would say something against Dadisa but he remained silent. Ruhi wanted to say something but Vidya held her back. 

"But ma sa.." Ruhi whispered. 

"No..dadisa wouldn't like it." Vidya whispered back. 

"But." 

"Not now Ruhi." 

"So..Armaan since Ruhi wants you to meet Manav. Please do visit the Goenka while going to office." Dadisa said 

"Ji Dadisa." 

"hmm..you must do it today. No excuses." Dadisa reminded 

"haan bilkul." Manisha said 

"Ji."
