At midnight.

Riahabh is talking to the goons.

Rishabh: Haan, kal kaam ho jaana chahiye!!

Goon (on call): Boss, ladki ki photo bhej dijiye.

Rishabh sends the pic to the goons.

Rishabh: Mili??

Goon: Haan boss, mil gayi!! Par udaana kaise hai??

Rishabh: Truck se...

He smirks and cuts the call. The goons see the picture of the girl and smirk.

Next day.

Preeta and Shrishti are standing in front of the college, on the opposite road. They are about to go when somebody comes and back hugs Preeta. She gets irritated.

Karan: Good morning babydoll...

Preeta (annoyed): Chodo mujhe!! Kyun pakda hai!!

Karan: Meine toh apni hone wali biwi ko pakda hai!! Tumhe kya problem hai!!

She widens her eyes and tries to push him away, but his grip on her only tightens. Shrishti sees Sameer near the college and goes towards him, smiling. She doesn't notice the truck coming towards her. Sameer too doesn't notice as he is busy looking at her. Preeta notices the truck. She pushes Karan and he falls on the floor.

Preeta (shouts): Shrishti!!!

She runs and pushes Shrishti towards Sameer and herself gets hit by the truck. Everybody is shocked. The goons in the truck get shocked as they hit the wrong girl and therefore run away.

Goon (on call): Hello, boss, gadbad ho gayi...

Rishabh (on call): Ab kya kiya tum logo ne??

Goon: Boss, woh, galat ladki aa gayi niche...

Rishabh (shocked): Whattt!!!

Meanwhile.

Blood gushed with sickening determination from Preeta's head, as if her own heart sought to pump it from her body. Her fingers clamped over the wound, two pale starfish growing paler by the second. The scarlet blood lashed over the road, painting the scene in which she lay semi-conscious. Karan, Shrishti and Sameer run to Preeta. Karan sits down and takes her head in his lap and pats her cheeks.

Karan (crying): Ba...babydoll dekho tumhe mujhe jaise torture karna hai karo...par aise nahi...please...tum...tum jaanti ho na ki mein tumse kitna pyaar karta hu...tumhe mere saath jo karna hai karo...but...just don't leave...please...

Preeta smiles and falls unconscious.

Sameer: Mein gaadi leke aata hu...

Shrishti (crying): Di!! Di utho na...please...di...

Sameer brings the car. Karan picks Preeta up and sits with her on the backseat, while Shrishti sits ahead. They drive to the hospital.

In the hospital.

Karan puts Preeta on the stretcher. He calls out to the doctors and nurses. The doctors take her inside the ICU. Shrishti hugged Sameer, crying. Karan just stood there, outside the ICU, where he had let go of Preeta's hand. He was numb. Forever he would be in that moment, his hands scarlet and sticky. There is the exquisite pain of loss that educates in a way nothing else can. It is as if his heart had been pulled from his body yet, still beats all the same. Yet it is the proof of their love, is it not? And so it lives in him, the love that they shared, and with every passing second he recalled their laughter and joy more than the moment her soul moved on.

Shrishti (weeping): Sammy, Karan sir...

Sameer (looking at Karan): Shayad...

But Shrishti leaves him and runs to hug Karan. Sameer too goes behind her. Both of them hug Karan. He then breaks down.

Karan (crying miserably): Sammy, Shrishti...meri...meri Preeta...meri babydoll...woh...

He bursts into tears, unable to say anything further. Just then the doctor comes out. Karan leaves Sameer and Shrishi and runs to him.

Karan: Doctor, kaisi hai meri Preeta...woh, woh thik toh hai na...

Doctor: Dekhiye Mr. Luthra shaant ho jaiye...unka kaafi blood loss hua hai...we need blood...unka blood group...

Karan: B positive...

Doctor: Yes, uski sakt zaroorat hai...

Shrishti: Mera blood group B positive hai...mein de dungi!!

Doctor: Nurse, inhe le jaiye...

The nurse takes Shrishti to donate the blood, while Sameer consoles Karan. After sometime, Shrishti comes back, after giving the blood. Preeta's operation is carried out. Karan, Sameer and Shrishti are sitting outside, tensed. Just then the doctor comes out and Karan rushes to him.

Doctor (immediately): Dekhiye Mr. Luthra, jisse pehle aap puche hum aapko bata de ki Preeta ji ab khatre se bahar hai (the trio breathe a sigh of relief) par unko abhi tak hosh nahi aaya hai...mein aapko unki medicines ka script de deta hu...

Karan: Okay doctor, thank you very much...

The doctor smiles and leaves. Karan goes inside her room. His world seems to come to a halt when he sees her lying on the bed, with wires attached, and almost lifeless. He, with stumbling steps, goes towards her. He sits beside her and tears form in his eyes. He caresses her hair with trembling hands and uneven breath. Shrishti and Sameer see him from outside.

Karan (tearfully): Babydoll, ab uth bhi jao na...dekho tumne bohot pareshaan kar liya mujhe, Shrishti ko aur Sameer ko...ab uth bhi jao...please...

He joins his forehead with her bandaged forehead, gently.

Karan: I love you, Preeta...I love you so much...

His tear falls on her eyes. She slowly opens her eyes. Karan sees her waking up and immediately wipes his tears. Shrishti and Sameer enter too. Preeta tries to get up, but seeing Karan's glare, she doesn't dare to get up.

Shrishti (tearfully): Ab aap kaise ho di??

Sameer: Aapne toh hume darra hi diya tha...

Preeta chuckles softly.

Preeta: Mein bilkul thik hu...

Karan: Kya thik ho!! Kuch thik nahi ho!! Puri tooti futi padi ho aur bol rahi ho thik ho!! Ek haath mein fracture hai!! Sir pe itni pattiyan hai!! Aur bol rahi ho mein thik hu!! (mimics her) Hadd hai Preeta Arora!! Tum apna zara sa bhi khayal nahi rakh sakti!!

Preeta (irritated): Uffo!! Chup!! (he keeps quiet) Kitna bolte ho tum!! Meine kaha na ki mein thik hu toh iska matlab mein thik hu (he is about to say something, but she interrupts) Nahi!! Ab apna muh mat kholna!! Waise hi sir mein dard ho raha hai!! Tumhari bakwaas sunke phat hi jaayega!!

He glares at her and she glares back at him. Shrishmeer giggle.

Preeta (cutely): Yeh hospital kitna ganda hai...aisa lag raha hai jaise mein bimaar hu!! (he narrows his eyes) Okay hu...par itni bhi nahi!! Mujhe ghar jaana hai...please!!

He chuckles at her cuteness.

Karan: Okay babydoll, hum ghar chalenge...(she gets happy) agar doctor ne allow kiya toh!!

She makes faces and the trio giggle.

Preeta: Agar nahi kiya na toh mein yaha se bhaag jaungi!!

Karan widens his eyes. Just then the doctor enters.

Doctor: Uski zaroorat nahi padegi...ab aap thik hai, aur aap ghar jaa sakti hai!! Bas apna khayal rakhiyega...

Preeta gets happy. Karan helps her sit. The doctor gives them the prescription and leaves. Karan carefully makes Preeta stand. Sameer goes to get the car.

Preeta (worried): Shrishti, maa...

Shrishti: Di, meine maa ko call karke bata diya tha...

Preeta: Thik hai...

Preeta walks with Karan's help to the car. He makes her sit on the back seat and sits with her.

Karan: Araam se...

She smiles.

Later.

They reach Arora mansion. Karan gently helps Preeta out of the car. He sees a car outside the house and looks at Sameer, who is looking here and there.

Karan: Sammy!!

Sameer: Bhai, mein kya karta!! Unka call aaya tha...

Karan: Toh tune mom ko bata diya ki Preeta ka accident ho gaya!!

Sameer smiles nervously. Preeta, Karan and Shrishti slap their forehead.

Preeta/Karan/Sameer/Shrishti: All the best to me/Preeta/di...

They go inside.
