Preeta ( chuckled bitterly ) : m kahaa se strong huii karan.. m to apne bac..

She closed her eyes to control her emotions & turned to other side not to cry in front of him.. he looked at her confusingly..

Karan ( in mind ) : aesa kya hua haii preeta ke sath jo mujhe nhii pata..

He hold her hands & turned towards him.. she was looking down.. she tried to control her tears but they were falling continuously from her eyes..

Karan : you want to share something.. kuch kehna haii..

She slowly shook her head & wiped her tears..

Karan : you know babydoll.. share karne se dard kam ho jaata haii.. & I want to become your friend so that you can share anything with me freely.. ( smiled slightly ) will you be my friend ?

Preeta : mera koi dost nhii haii.. sab jhoote haii.. sab dhokaa dete haii.. shuru shuru m sab acche hote haii lekin phir sab badal jaate hai..

Karan ( softly ) : sab 1 jaise nhi hote preeta..

He fist his hands tightly listening that " baazaru ladki " word from her mouth..

His heart broking into million pieces seeing her like this.. he could tolerate anything but not her tears..

Karan : tum jo chaaho vo kar sakti ho preeta.. m tumhe kabhii nhii rokugaa.. but please don't cry.. please.. I can't see you like this.. i m sorry for everything babydoll..

He was trying to console her.. she looked at him & smiled bitterly..

Preeta : Aapne bhii to mujhe khareeda hii tha na karan luthra.. dusre logo Ki taraah.. ek baar bhii meri marzii jaanne kii koshish kii.. ( shouted angrily ) nhii!!

He got shocked listening her words.. she cryingly ran from there.. his back hit the wall & he fell on floor with thud.. tears were rolling down from his eyes..

Karan : sahii kahaa.. maine bhi to vaahi kiyaa.. v..vahi kiya.. ( mumbled )

Words are not even sufficient to describe how it feels like to get broken from inside. Its like dying every single moments.. The pain is eternal.

he felt like a million knives going through his chest, it made him feel useless, hopeless, unloved..

On the other side

She was crying to the point she couldn't see , she screamed at the top of her lungs to forget her painful past.. but the pain was impossible..

She hated her herself because she had to learned to live with the scars. They forever changed her , she believed..

she built emotional walls around parts of her heart and soul. She was unable to really, fully trust anyone anymore no matter how deserving they may be of her trust..

At midnight ,

Karan was shown standing near the window of guest room looking at the moon..

Karan ( whispered ) : i m sorry babydoll..

" Karan "

He got shocked hearing her voice & turned towards her.. he looked at her face.. her nose turned red due to constent crying , her hairs all messed up & still her beautiful eyes shedding tears which made his heart broke one more time.. 

She ran towards him & hugged him tightly throwing her arms around his neck made him stumbled on his steps.. but he managed & wrapped his arms around her waist in protecting manner..

Karan : aaram se preeta.. gir jaogii..

He heard her sobs on his shoulder made him hell worried...

Karan : kyaa huaa.. koi bura sapna dekhaa.. haa..

He rubbed her back to calm her down.. her crying turned into hiccups.. he tried to broke the hug but she was holding her shirt tightly into her small fists..

Karan : preeta kyaa hua haii.. kahii chot lagi haii.. dard ho rahaa haii kya..

She lightly shook her head & loosened her hold.. he looked at her with concern.. suddenly , she hold her ears & said while crying..

Preeta : i.. i m so.. sorry karan.. maine bohoot buraa bola aapko.. i m really very sorry.. aa.. aap mujhe daanto maaro lekin..m..mujhse gussa mat hona.. please.. m..m b.. bohot burii hu.. m.. m..

He stopped her putting her head on his chest..

Karan : sshh..bs calm down tumhari koi galtii nhii haii preeta.. tum sorry mat bolo..

Preeta : n..nhii..m..meri hi g..ga..lti..

Karan : pehle shant ho jaoo.. relax calm down.. take deep breaths.. breath..

He soothingly rubbed her back to stop her hiccups.. she hide her face completely into his chest while hugging his torso..

Karan : ( saying softly while carressing her hairs ) preeta.. na tumhari na meri kisi ki galti nhii hai.. situation hii kuch aesii thi.. or kabhi kabhii gussa karna thik hota haii.. dil halka ho jaata hai.. mujhe bilkul buraa nhii laga.. hm..

She broke the hug but still her hands rested on his chest.. he wiped her tears & nodded his head in no..

Preeta : Aap un logo Jaise nhii haii.. aap bohoot acche haii.. mujhe vaaha se bahar nikala maa papa se mil vaaya.. sab kiyaa jisse m khush hu..

He smiled a bit..

Preeta : but i want some time.. i trust youu but abhii bhii kahi na kahi dar haii dil m.. phir mujhe dhoka na mile..

Karan ( smiling ) : jitna time chahiye lo.. m tumhara hamesha intezaar karunga.. or tum ek na ek din mere pass bhagtii huii aaogii.. you know uski tarah..

Preeta ( confusingly ) : kiski tarah..

Karan : aree simran.. or m ( then do shah rukh khan vala famous pose ) tumhara raj.. s..s..simaran..

She giggled seeing him.. a tear escaped from his eye seeing her smile finally.. he cupped her face from one side & looked deeply into her eyess..

Karan : is smile ko kabhii apne chehre se jaane mat dena.. mujhe meri jaan aese hi acchi lagti haii.. muskuraate hue..

He smiled at her.. she hold his hand which was on her cheek & leaned into his touch staring into his eyess... Both shared a beautiful eye lock..

Then he noticed something on her wrist..
