Sakshi became stiff reading the from address, she didn't uttered it out, " from where it came?" Roopali asked her this time, she quickly replied, " this is from my friend maa" 
She excused herself and Ranvijay sensed something and followed her.
" I will pack my things " Roopali left from there in her own thoughts.
Hasmukh who is about to go is stopped by Rajveer, he walked to him and wrapped his hand around Hasmukh's shoulder, which made him bent slightly out of hesitation and respect for him.
" sahab, do you need anything" he asked meekly.
Rajveer chuckled and said,
" Hasmukh I need a straight answer will you give it?" 
Hasmukh immediately nodded in yes, " then tell me how you got the key of that room and why you didn't gave it to us even after knowing we are willing to visit the room" Rajveer asked startling Hasmukh.
Hasmukh searched for answers, while Rajveer is eyeing him intently, which made him nervous.
Sakshi opened the letter and started reading it.
She felt someone is standing behind and swiftly turned around and breathed in relief finding Ranvijay there.
" bhai, I was about to meet you, do you know from where this letter came!" She voiced excitedly, Ranvijay smiled warmly and said, " I know " 
" so when ?" He asked, " day after tomorrow " she said checking in the letter.
" can you read the letter for me" He asked, she hummed in yes and closed the doors so that no one can hear her.
Piyali is in her own thoughts, she is shattered by the act of her sister, and moreover she is frightened by the encounter in that room and Tara  Majumdar's  words.
She is confused whether to believe it or not.
She heard a knock on the door, and find Dhaniya standing with food tray in her hands.
" come in " she said and went to take tray from Dhaniya.
" how is your son Dhaniya? Is he alright?" Piyali asked remembering that day when Dhanaya left suddenly.
" He is fine saheba " she replied not meeting her eyes.
She is about to go, but turned and Apologized to Piyali, " saheba, I'm sorry that day Roopali saheba asked me to take care of you, but I left which caused you to went through the ordeal, forgive me" 
" it is not your fault Dhaniya, it is my fate which showed me true colors of my own blood " she thought and said, " don't be sorry, look at me I'm all healthy and safe know, forget that and concentrate on your work" 
Dhaniya looked on.
" don't be nervous, Hasmukh I assure you I will not disclose about this to anyone, I just need the answer" Rajveer encouraged Hasmukh. 
" you can trust me" He added.
Hasmukh closed his eyes and sighed, " sahab, it is 5 years back, one night when I was passing through the Mahal, I saw someone entering inside and followed them to prevent them from getting harmed by the Mahal's ghost.
But they are thieves who came to loot.
When I entered inside they all were scared by something and I saw a shadow on the wall.
And within few seconds those thieves were acting weird and started to attack each other.
I was scared and about to go, but a statue fell down and that iron key fell down from it.
I picked it up and ran from there.
Next day I reached here and find thieves were badly injured, with help of other villagers we admitted them to hospital.
Taking that key I searched entire Mahal, for the door which can fit it.
I found that door and that very moment I understood this is the door.
I don't have courage to open it, so I left from there hiding the key with me." 
" then why you didn't informed us about this incident?" Rajveer asked, " I don't want to create unnecessary panic, although maalik doesn't want any rumors to be spread about this Mahal, I thought to forget that incident " he said.
" you mentioned a shadow?
If it a ghost why will it roam like a shadow " Rajveer voiced his question.
" I don't know maalik, but this Mahal is haunted by Sharmista.
I want you all to be safe, that's all" he said recalling his bad thoughts when he didn't find Rajveer this morning.
" but did you noticed piano tune is also stopped" Rajveer said,
" yes sahab, everyone in the village are also surprised by this.
But they are still feared, even I too.
Because every night we kept hearing it all these years, from my childhood.
I think it is indicating towards a big trouble" Hasmukh said completely engulfed in fear.
" don't worry, Hasmukh nothing like that will happen.
Go and take rest, you are still not recovered yet" Rajveer said Hasmukh nodded and left.
