Mr.batra: tume balli ke saath dance karna hoga....monami....sabko yeh lagna chahiye yeh Karan hai....

Monami smirked... Sorry sir...mein iss mission ke Jaan de sakthi hoon...par Karan ke alava kisi ke saath bday nahi celebrate kar sakthi....just because sakaal mithi hai ....mein usse kran nahi samaj sakthi sorry....

Mr.batra: tum yeh mission ke liye ye nahi kar sakthi....

Monami: sir iss mission ke liye meri jaan bhi haazir hai....agar mission ke liye raazi nahi hoti toh...uss balli ko academy aane nahi deti mein...uss vahi gaad ke rak deti.....she said angrily....then realised she was talking in a loud tone and adjusted herself....sorry sir mein apki orders manthi hoon...par mujhe yeh sab karne ke liye force mat kijiye... I will take the blame on me ...bol doon ki meri tabiyat teek nhi...kyunki Karan ke bina yeh sab .....she wiped her tears....

Mr batra too noded his head and understood her pain and stroke her hair...monami wiped her tears and uttered a thank you....and slowly left the room leaving batra sir sanju and faizi behind...

Back in the academy hall everyone was happy to see them...

Sid came and hugged her.....and wished her a happy birthday....as Sid hugged....her eyes poured even....she was quick to wipe them off....
She hugged him tightier...Sid too felt something was odd....yet she immediately broke the hug...Sid too brushed it off....

Everyone gathered near her and wished her a happy birthday...from all the crying everyone could see how weak she was..... everyone enquired if she was fine.... monami replied weakly....tht she has got a bad headache and need to rest....i am sorry guys aap logon ne itni party ki planning ki...it's just that meri tabiyat bohot kharab hai....so....everyone saw how weak she was.... little did they know it was because of karan's demise not because of head ache ....

Seeing monami in such a vulnerable state...Sid became so concerned...and took her to her room and made her lay on her bed.....but monami couldn't keep her guard as Sid.....kept on comforting....and why not....he was giving her the most comfort even though he didn't know what her real problem was....

One by one of the trainess left after soothing her and asking her to take care... And Sid alone was left on the bed side of monu....

Monu slowly closed her eyes...her grief let down as tears from her eyes through her cheeks...Sid slowly careessed her hair...kya hua hai monu....batha na,...he asked with utmost concern....

Monu slowly sat her bed and looked at Sid...who was still caressing her hair...she remembered how batra sir had told not to tell anyone in the academy about Karan....but sid....Sid deserves the truth she thought...sorry sir aapka ek aur rule Tod rahi hun....she apologized in her mind ...

Sid just wiped her tears...waiting for her to open up.....she couldn't act more....she pretended everything was going good  to all trainees ....but to sid...where he is a person who knows her more than her....she couldn't pretend.....she let down her facade....and cried her heart out hugging him....

Sid too hugged her...and shed tears .. without knowing why she was crying...he knew she was too hurt inside .....he knew she was shattered ....but why...is the question...but he didn't want to push her so patiently waited and hugged her and consoled her....

Tens mins in....monami gently broke her hug still crying....she leaned near his and whispered.... Karan mar chuka hai ....yeh uska humshakal hai balli....hearing this Sid didn't bat an eye ....he didn't know how to react .....she had found love after so much searching...and now he is head.!!!! He couldn't believe himself.....he hugged her tight immediately hoping it would console her....and give her some solace....and kept on stroking her hair....again and again...with tears in his eyes....he was dumbstruck ....to say a thing....

Monami continued still hugging and crying.... Dhanu ki logo ne maar di...aur ab unhe pakadne ke liye yeh natak Kar raha hai...Karan banke.....she cried....

Sid kissed her on her hair....and kept patting her back....for first he didn't know how to console her and give her the strength for...he himself had lost itt ....Karan...really???!? He was such a strong comando....?!? How can he?!? Die?!? He thought to himself....and cried....still hugging her ....
