Karan was in dargah praying for his brother's well being.

Preeta woke up with a jerk.

Shrishti: Di.. Aap uth gye.. Kuch chahiye aapko..

Preeta(panicking) : Karan... Vo kaha h... Usne kuch khaya nhi h shrishti... Mujhe uske paas jaane de... Bta kaha h karan... Karan kaha h shrishti bol...

Shrishti: Di shaant hojao... Hum chalte h na jiju ke paas... Pehle aap juice pio... Aapki tbyit thik nhi h... Pehle aap pilo phir hum chlte h..

Preeta: Dimaag sahi h kya tera.. Vaha karan ki halat pta nhi kya ho rhi hogi aur tu mujhe juice peene ki bol rhi h... Hatt saamne se.. Mujhe uske paas jaane de..

Shrishti tried to stop her but she ran to Rishabh's ward. She saw Sameer outside. She woke him up.

Preeta(panicking) : Sameer... Karan kaha h... Jldi bolo...

Sameer: Bhabhi bhai kuch der pehle toh andar hi the..

She went inside but Karan wasn't there. She saw Rishabh.

Preeta: Rishabh ji uth jayiye na... Please.. Uth jayiye...Karan bahut pareshan ho rha h Rishabh jii... Please main usse bahut pyaar krti hu... Main use aise nhi dekh paa rhi hu.. Rishabh jii.. Uth jayiye naa..

A lone tear escaped Rishabh's eye which went unnoticed by Preeta.

Preeta: Karan ko dhoondhna h.. Kaha gya vo..

Preeta was going outside when Karan came to hospital.

She ran to him and hugged him tightly.

Preeta: Kaha chle gye the tum... Jaan nikal gyi thi meri... Aise koi krta h... Bahut bure ho tum... Bahut bure..

Karan: Sh.. Shaant hojao babydoll... Mujhe pta h main bura hu tbhi toh aaj meri wajah se bhai.. Iss halat mein h..

Preeta broke the hug.

Preeta: Karan mere kehne ka vo mtlb nhi tha..

Karan: Mtlb kuch hi ho babydoll... Sach toh yehi h na..

Preeta tried to cup his face but he didn't let her.

Preeta: Karan tumhari koi galti nhi..

Karan(fake smile) : Babydoll baar baar sach ko jhuth bolne se... Vo jhuth toh nhi hojayenga na..

Preeta: karan..

But karan ignored her and went to Rishabh. He sat besides him.

Preeta was unable to react.

Shrishti: Sammy yeh sb kya hogya...

Sameer: Pta nhi Shrishti....Jse ek pal m sb bhikhar gya...

Shrishti: Rishabh jii ne suicide attempt...

Shrishti ran towards the exit. Sameer followed her.

Sameer held her.

Sameer: Kaha jaa rhi ho shrishti...

Shrishti: Luthra House..

Sameer: Par kyu... Bhai bhabhi ko hmari zarurat h..

Shrishti: Isliye hmara jaana zaruri h sammy... Mujhe janna h rishabh ji ne suicide kyu kii... Jab di jiju ki shaadi ho rhi thi tb toh unhone kuch nhi kiya..

Sameer: Chlo..

Shrishmeer left for Luthra House.

Preeta was looking at Karan who was just sitting besides Rishabh like a statue.

Doctor came for Rishabh's checkup.

Preeta: Doctor Rishabh jii ki haalat..

Doctor: Dr.Preeta...Vo blood loss ki wajah se coma m slip hogye h... Main check up krke aapko exact condition batata hu..

Preeta: Doctor Please..

Doctor: Dr. Preeta... Aap pls Karan ko yaha se leke jayiye.. Hume rishabh ka check up krna h..

Preeta nodded and went towards Karan.

Preeta(softly) : Karan... Bahar chlo.. Rishabh ji ka check up krege doctor..

He didn't say anything but went outside. Preeta was hurt. She also went outside.

Shrishmeer reached Luthra House.

Shrishti ran to Rishabh's room and was searching for something.

Sameer: Shrishti kya kr rhi ho..

Shrishti: Suicide note dhund rhi hu..

Sameer (in tears) : Usse rishabh bhai thik hojayege kya..

Shrishti wiped his tears and cupped his face.

Shrishti : Nhi pr jiju ka guilt km hojayega... Sammy isme di jiju ki koi galti nhi h... Hume vo note dhund kr janna hoga kii aakhir rishabh ji ne aisa kiya kyu...

Sameer nodded and started looking for note with her.

They found out the note and read it.

Main Rishabh Luthra, kisi ke dabaav m aaye buna apni marzi se apni yeh zindagi khatam krne jaa rha hu.. Main Miss Preeta Arora I mean Mrs. Preeta Karan Luthra jo ab mere bhai ki wife h... Unhe pasand krta tha aur unhe paane ke liye maine kuch aisi cheeze kii jo mujhe nhi krni chahiye thi... Mne apne chote bhai ko nuksaan pahuchane ki koshish kii.. Jis baat pr mujhe bahut pashtava h... Ho ske toh aap log mujhe maaf krdijiyega..

Shrishti and Sameer were shocked. They never thought that Rishabh would have tried to harm Karan.

Shrishti was angry.She went to confront Mahesh.

Mahesh saw her coming towards him.

Rakhi: Shrishti kya hua... Rishabh thik toh h na beta...

Shrishti ignored her and went towards Mahesh.

Shrishti(angry) : Well done Mr. Mahesh Luthra.... Well done... Aap ne mere jiju ko uss glti ki saza de hi di na jo unhone kii h nhi.... De di na aapne meri preeta di ko jee bhar ke bad duayeen jo aaj vo tuti hui h karan sir ki yeh haalat dekh kr... Par ek baar aap mujhe yeh btana pasand krege kii rishabh jii ne suicide kyun kii...

Mahesh(angry): Kyunki vo preeta se pyaar krta tha aur karan ne preeta se shaadi krli...

Shrishti(shouting) : Aur yeh baat aapko kisne batayi...

Mahesh: Batane ki zarurat kya h...Baap hu main uska.. Uski dil ki baat smjhta hu...

Shrishti started clapping.

Shrishti: Acha... dad h aap unke... Dad toh aap jiju ke bhi h... Unke dil ki baat toh aapne kbhi nhi smjhi... Ek baat batayiye zra agar dii aur rishabh ji ek dusre se pyaar krte aur jiju bhi di se pyaar krte toh kya aap rishabh jii ko karan sir ki halat kii liye blame krte..

Mahesh turned his face.

But shrishti made him look towards her.

Shrishti: Main batati hu... Aap aisa kuch nhi krte.... Kyunki aap sirf Rishabh ji se pyaar krte h... Jiju ki ratti bhar fikr nhi h aapko...

Mahesh(angry) : Aisa kuch nhi h... Main Karan se bahut pyaar krta hu..

Shrishti: Oh Really.... Just shut up Mr. Mahesh Luthra...Shut up... Aapne na kbhi rishabh ji na jiju.... Kisi ko smjhne ki koshish kii... Aapko jo sahi lga... Aapne bas vo kiya... Saara ka saara ilzam bina kuch jaane... Bina kuch smjhe... Mere di jiju pr lga diya... Jbki unhe toh kuch pta hi nhi tha..

Mahesh(angry) : Mujhe karan se koi dushmani nhi h... Par uske aur uss ldki ki wajah se aaj rishabh jii coma m h...

Shrishti(angry) : Kehna nhi chahiye... Par kh rhi hu kii kahi na kahi acha hi h rishabh jii coma m h... Kyunki..

But Rakhi slapped her,

Sameer(concerned) : Shrishti..

Rakhi(angry): Kya bole jaa rhi h tu Shrishti.... Vaha rishabh ki jaan khatre m h... Aur tujhe khushi h...

Shrishti(in tears) : Nhi aunty... Mujhe khushi iss baat ki nhi kii rishabh jii ki aisi halat h... Mujhe khushi iss baat kii h kii aisi halat m vo mere jiju ko kuch kr nhi payenge...

Rakhi and Mahesh were shocked.

Mahesh(angry) : Kya bole ja rhi ho... Rishabh kbhi karan ko nuksan nhi pahucha skta...

Sameer: Jis vishwas se aap yeh baat bol rhe h chachu... Itna vishwas aapko karan bhai pr bhi toh krna chahiye tha kii vo kbhi bhi rishabh bhaiya ko koi dukh nhi denge...

Shrishti(angry) : Rehne do sammy...Inhe koi fikr nhi h jiju kii... Humne jo halat unki dekhi h... Inhone thodi dekhi h... Jo pta chle kii ksa lgta h jb koi khud ko kosta rhta h...

Rakhi(in tears) : Beta ye kya..

Shrishti(in tears) : Rakhi aunty... Mujhe pta h aapko bahut dukh hoga... Par ek baar jiju ko blame krne se pehle jaan toh lete kii rishabh jii ne itna bada kadam uthaya kyu....

She handed his suicide note to Rakhi but Mahesh snatched it from her.

Mahesh read it. He was lost. He fell down.

Shrishti: Kyu... Pairo k niche se zameen khisak gyi... Ab boliye kya glti h issme mere jiju kii jisne jaan se jyada apne bhai ko chaha... Kya glti h meri di kii... Jinhone jiju se sirf aur sirf sacha pyaar kiya...

Mahesh: Aisa nhi..

Sameer: Chachu aap mujhse bade h... Par aaj aapki wajah se karan bhai waha hospital m khud ko kos kos kr zinda laash ki tarah pade h... Kaash aap rishabh bhaiya jitna pyaar karan bhai se bhi krte... Kaash..

Rakhi: Yeh kya bole jaa rhe ho.. Tum log..

She took the note and read it. She was unable to believe.

Shrishti: Jo mujhe saabit krna tha... Mne krdiya... Ab mujhe mere di jiju ko smbhalna h... Chlo sammy..

They left for hospital leaving a numb Rakhi and guilty Mahesh behind.

In hospital,

Preeta was looking at Karan who was not reacting to anything. She went to him. She had a lot of questions in her mind.

She sat down on floor in front of him. She was crying.

Preeta(in tears) : Karan ek baat batao... Agar rishabh jii thik hojayenge... Toh kya tum mujhe chod donge...

Karan looked upto her.

Preeta(in tears) : Yeh janne ke baad kii rishabh jii mujhse pyaar krte h... Kya tum mujhe accept kr paunge.. Ya phir tum mujhe div..

But before she could complete, Karan kissed her...

He broke and hugged her.

Karan(in tears) : I am sorry babydoll... Mujhe tumhare baare m sochna chahiye tha... Tumse baat krni chahiye thi... I am really sorry... Aur yeh tum kya bolne jaa rhi thi...

Preeta hugged him more tightly.

Preeta(in tears) : Tum mujhe chodke nhi jaoge na...

Karan(in tears) : Kbhi nhi babydoll... Kbhi nhi chodunga main tumhe.. Koi apni zindagi ko chodta h bhala... Ek baar bhai thik hojaye phir main sb thik krdonga.. Vo thik toh hojayenga na Preeta...

Preeta: Ha Karan... Rishabh jii bilkul thik hojayenge... Bilkul thik... Aur phir hum sb thik krdenge aur sb saath m rhnge..

Karan(murmuring) : I am sorry... I love u babydoll.. I love u..

Preeta: I love u too Karan... I love u too..

Screen freezes on their hug.

Precap

Rishabh's health improves.. Mahesh apologises to Karan
