As you all know that Monami had mistook Karan as thief on their very first meet when she saw him threatening Bala. But, then she got to know about him being an agent. She was guilty that she judged him.

----------

Karan instructed them to complete the forest track till 1700 hours (5:00 pm) which means in 3 hours. Karan pulled out the same scarf which she used to tie his hands and made it fell on ground indicating to start their walk.

All started walking towards the way but Monami's eyes were fixed on Karan. She was feeling extremely guilty and bad for handling him to police and mistaking him as thief.

With baby steps, Monami walked towards Karan. Her eyes landed on her scarf which was landed on road then she looked at him again.

"Sir, I am extremely sorry. Mujhe aapko police ke havale nahi karna chahiye tha. But, it was just a misunderstanding. Agli baar aaisa nahi hoga", Monami confessed.

"Aapko 1700 hours tak academy pohochna hai Miss Mahajan. Start walking varna aap pohoch nahi payegi.", Karan replied rudely.

Monami looked at him. She was sure he is angry at her and won't forgive her so easily. She bend down and picked up the scarf from the road, which had became dirty when everyone passed walking on it.

Karan looked at her surprised. He didn't expected Monami to do it. She picked up a dirty scarf. For him it was just a scarf but not for Monami. The scarf was very important for her. She wouldn't leave it.

Monami took a few steps ahead and clutched it tightly. Karan was noticing her actions. Few drops formed in Monami's eyes. But, it went unnoticed by Karan.

"Aab kya batau main Mr. Karan Shergill ko ki yeh scarf mere liye kitna important hai."

Monami left to start her journey towards Academy and her dream. Karan was lost in his thoughts when Faizi tapped on his shoulder.

"Kaha kho gaye Karan? Kya dekh rahe ho?", Faizi enquired.

"Kuch nahi...", Karan shrugged the thoughts.

"Vaise ek baat toh pakki ho gayi Karan. Pehli mulakat mein hi Monami tsunami ne tumse panga le liye aur police ke hawale kar diya aab academy mein jaegi toh pata nahi kya kya karegi", Faizi said and chuckled.

"Mujhe samajh nahi aa raha ki tu kehna kya chahta hai akhir. Tu uski tareef toh nahi kar raha na ki usne mujhe police ke hawale kar Diya?", Karan asked glaring at him.

"Nahi janaab! Aur voh sab ek misunderstanding ke vajah se hua so don't hold grudges against her varna pata nahi training ke vakt kya haal karoge bechari ka", Faizi teased him.

"Tu kehna chahta hai ki main personal khunnas nikalne vala hun uspar. Yeh mujhe bhi pata hai ki voh ek misunderstanding thi. Uski jagah koi aur hota toh bhi aaisa hi samajhta ki main koi Badmash hun. But seriously kya main tujhe gali ka gunda nazar ata hun kya?", Karan questioned in irritated tone.

Faizi chuckled at his situation.

"Nahi yaar! Chal yeh saab chod, academy chalte hai, Batra sir bhi milna hai", Faizi said diverting the topic else he will dig out each and every question related to this.

~~~~~~~~

Monami was finally able to convince Colonel Batra. She was extremely happy because she was finally on her dream destination.

It was night time, everyone had slept with sad mood, because they thought that Karan burnt their things. Karan was awake when Faizi entered the room.

"Kaha tha abhi tak?", Karan asked.

"Kuch khas nahi par tu abhi tak soya kyu nahi? Kya soch raha hai?", Faizi asked.

"Kuch nahi yaar baas aaj Rani Sahiba ne jo kiya vahi soch raha hun", Karan said in flow.

"Kon Rani Sahiba?", Faizi asked. After couple of seconds he realised. "Ohh Monami tsunami ki baat kar raha hai. Par tu kyu abhi tak uss baat ko lekar baitha hai. Hazar baar sun chuka hoga tu aaj ki voh baas ek misunderstanding thi", Faizi scolded.

Karan glared at Faizi.

"Main uss baarein mein baat nahi kar raha hun Faizi. Aaj jab maine uske scarf ko niche giraya tab usne uss gande scarf ko firse udha liya, kyu? Itne paiso vali hai toh usse ek scarf se fark padta hai?", Karan said.

Faizi hit him on his own head.

"Yah Allah! Kya kare hum tumhara Karan. Tumhe itna toh samajh hi jana chahiye tha na. Jab usne voh ganda scarf udha liya iska matlab voh usse bohot pyaara hai, voh usse bohot important hai. For example, tujhe kai cheeze pyaari hai ki tu unhe faik nahi sakta.", Faizi said and shook his head in disappointment.

"Kya voh scarf uske liye important hai. Aur maine usse uske saamne niche gira diya aur usne kuch kaha bhi nahi?", Karan thought.

"Aab hum tujhe usse sorry bolne ke liye kahenge nahi kyuki hamari baat maanta kon hai?, Faizi taunted and layed on his bed.

Karan was feeling a little bad as he had hurted her feelings. He got up to leave the room for fresh air. But, Faizi stopped him.

"Itni raat ko kaha ja raha hai?", Faizi asked.

"Kaha nahi tu so ja", Karan replied and left the room before Faizi could ask him another question.

~~~~~~~~~

Karan was walking in the corridor and thinking about Faizi's works.

"Jab usne voh ganda scarf udha liya iska matlab voh usse bohot pyaara hai, voh usse bohot important hai."

He was lost in his thoughts when he saw Monami gazing the Moon. Suddenly, she started speaking.

"Aapko yaad hai dadi, aapne mujhe yeh scarf mere tenth birthday par diya tha. Tab se lekar aaj tak maine isse aapne paas sambhal kar rakha hai. Jab aap mere paas thi na toh mujhe kabhi bhi papa ya mama ki jarurat nahi padi kyuki aapne mujhe itna pyaar diya. Yeh scarf mere pass aapki aakhri nishani hai. Kash kash aap mere paas hote. Kabhi bhi mujhe chod kar nahi jate!", She signed and closed her eyes remembering her grandmother.

Here, Karan was feeling guilty for making her cry and unintentionally hurting her feelings. He remembered how all have trashed the scarf under their feets.

Karan walked towards her and stood beside her. Monami felt someone's presence and opened her eyes and saw Karan. She wiped her tears. She was gonna leave.

"I am sorry!", Karan said

"Huh?"

"Maine kaha I am sorry. Maine tumhari saari baatein sun li. I am sorry mujhe tumhari scarf ko aaise jameen par nahi dalna chahiye tha. Mujhe laga ki voh sirf ek scarf hai", Karan confessed.

"Voh mere liye sirf ek scarf nahi hai Karan sir. Mere papa ko lagta hai ki aab mujhe iss scarf ko fek dena chahiye.", Monami said.

"He is practical.", Karan said.

"Correct! He is practical. Par jab Zindagi mein had se jyada kuch hota hai toh accha nahi hota. Vaise hi had se jyada practical hona bhi toh thik nahi hai varna insaan ki Emotions ki koi importance hi nahi hoga.", Monami said.

"Ha ek scarf se wardrobe overload toh nahi hoga", Karan said and Monami glared at him but later chuckled.

"Maine maaf kiya tumhe. Tumne jo bhi kiya unintentionally kiya. Tum mujhe hurt nahi karna chahte the.", Monami said and looked at Karan. Karan too looked at her.

He took a step ahead. She became nervous.

"Kal subah thik 0530 hours ko field par milna hai so abhi tumhe sone jana chahiye. Agar late ho gayi toh punishment milegi, Rani Sahiba", Karan said.

Monami passed him a forced smile and left. Karan shook his head at her antics and left to sleep as well.
