Outside the boutique,

"Krishi ruk na" Jassi exclaimed running behind Krishi, only to find her huffing standing near the car.

" tu kyu aaya yha, kyu bulaya, yahi dikhana ke liye bulaya ki sab koi khush hai mere bina" Krishi said in between her tears.

"Nahi hai. We missed you" Jassi tried to console her.

"Na...hi... yyyy...ou... gu...ys ...aaar..eeee —--' Krishi was saying but her breathing started getting hitched.

"Krish ...relax...breath...follow me take deep breaths...in and out .." Jassi started rubbing her back, muttering softly . "Tera inhaler kha h" he added after a while..

"Mere purse mein h , shit mera purse andar reh gaya hai , ruko me lati hu" Pihu said and was about to rush inside but stopped hearing someone pass an inhaler to Jass .

"Jassi yeh le"

Jassi immediately took the inhaler and gave a pump to Krishi , while Pihu was rubbing her back, trying to calm her down . After a while, when Pihu saw Krishi was feeling better, she thought to thank the person and return his inhaler but the inhaler somehow seemed a bit familiar to her. She was wondering where she had seen this inhaler, just then she heard Jass's voice thanking Shreyash, making her come out of her thoughts.

"Thanks Shrey tum right time pe aa gaya , warna kya hota pata nahi" Jassi said.

"Toh kuch nahi hota, be positive," Shreyas said with a smile, not quite reaching his eyes, because deep down he too was worried for his Ishu, he knows Krishi is ashmatic and gets attack whenever she is stressed or anxious.

"But tum inhaler kyu rakhte ho?" Pihu asked curiously,she wanted to ask something more but decided against it.

"Iska ek friend use karta tha, so uske liye he always keeps it but mind it he never lets us touch it nor do we know about his this friend" Jassi said . " Krishi , how are you feeling now?" he added.

"Better," Krishi replied , though she wasn't and Jass knew this, so he said " chal me tujhe ghar drop kar deta hu" . Turning towards Shreyas , he added "tu Sanju ko bol dena , me isko drop karke aata hu"

To which Shrey replied "Tu yahi rukh, main Krishi ko ghar drop kar dunga"

"Par..." Jassi said hesitantly.

"Koi par war nahi , teri dresses abhi tak final nahi hui h"

"To me aake kar lunga, teri bhi toh nahi huwi hai"

"Tujhme aur mujhme farak hai, tu dulha hai, teri shadi h, tujhe ache se ready hona padega, main toh kuch bhi formal wear pehn lunga , koi kuch nahi bolega mujhe aur aise bhi tin mahine h..me fir aa jaunga but tere toh aaj hi jane padenge."

"Tu bolta hai toh thik hai, par Krishi ghar poch ke call karna and Pihu please isse kuch khila dena , I will ask doctor uncle to check you once" Jassi said..

"Tu ja me dekh lunga , i will drop her home, jada tension mat le".Shreyas said and thought in his mind ' may be this will give me a chance to talk with her'

"Jass, main cab mein Pihu ke sath chali jaungi or i will take your car" Krishi replied not wanting to go with Shreyas.

" tujhe lagta hai main iss halat mein tujhe cab se jana duga yaa drive karne duga toh yeh sochna bhi mat,Tu Yash ke sath hi jayegi and its final" Jassi said and Krishi having no other choice had to accept it. But it was only short lived, just as Jassi went inside krishi started it again

Krishi: I'm not going with you, Pihu cab book karle

Shreyas: No Pihu , mat kar

Krishi: kar

Shreyas: nahi

Krishi : haa

Shreyas: nahi

"Pihu tu cab book kar rahi h, chod me hi karti hu" Krishi said taking out her phone and Shreyas immediately snatched it and handling it to Pihu said "maine bola na i will drop you, ek baar mein samajh nahi aata h kya"

"Toh maine bhi bola na, mujhe tumhare sath nahi jana , tumhe samajh nahi aata, mera phone do" Krishi too replied glaring back.

This continued for a while and Pihu had enough .

"Stop it you two, kya bacho ke tarah ladh rahe ho" she shouted at the top of her voice.

And immediately Shreyas looked towards her , embarrassed, but at the same time, they both were glaring at each other. Seeing them not move, Pihu again said " main Jassi ko bulao"

"No need, main car leke aata hu, tum isko pakad ke rakhna" Shreyas said and went from there.

" What the, kya samajhte hai yeh apne aap ko? '' Krishi said.

"Relax Krish," Pihu said.

Shreyas brought his car and they rode the car in silence, Pihu could feel the tension between the two , she knew something was wrong. Krishi never behaves like this . She noticed Shrey looking towards Krishi from the rear view mirror with a longing. When they reached home , Shrey handed Krishi some chocolates which were her favourite ones .

"I don't need anything from you," Krishi said rudely and went inside.

'But how does he know ki yeh Krishi ka favourite h , she only eats this?', Pihu thought in her mind and decided, she will ask her later. Pihu thanked Shreyas for dropping them home and went inside after Krishi, entering her room , she asked "Krish, what's this, Shreyas is such a sweet boy , kitni help ki usne hamari and you are just being rude with him, it's just not done."

"I know how much sweet Rey is"

"Krish i said Shreyas not Rey, uss Rey ko toh me chodungi nhi jis din milega , i will make his murabba, how dare he break my bestie's heart"

"Toh ja jake bana le na , kon rok raha h" Krishi snapped back angrily and immediately regretted it and turned her face. Pihu was shocked and she took a step back.

"Krish, Shreyas hi tera Rey h na, common dammit speak up"

"Pihu woh....."

"Ha ya naa"

"Haa"

"Usko toh me chodungi nhi wait, isliye he knows your favourite chocolate and woh tera inhaler tha uske pass—-------"

"Pihu don't i dont want to talk about it, i want to be alone for a while"

"Par usse pehle ye bata ki boutique mein kya hua tha jo teri yeah halat hogi, kya kisi ne kuch bola tujhe kahin woh Ruhi toh nahi because last maine tujhe usse saaath hi jate hue dekha tha"

"Main baad mein tujhe sab batati hu par abhi i need to stay alone for a while...pleasee" she said making a face which meant i'm done for today.

Pihu went out of the room because even she needed to come to terms with the thing, it was too much to take.

Pihu's pov-

'Ohh my god, everything makes sense now, but there is something amiss , kuch toh hai , Shreyas ki ankho me bhi mujhe wahi dard nazar aata hai , jo kahi na kahi Krishi ki ankho me h. Krish ne mujhe sabkuch bataya tha uss din kya huwa tha .......wait a minute....uss din Sayesha and Trisha bhi toh bol rahe the, may be he has moved on , yha god knows what and yeah mall mein exactly hua kya tha....what did that Ruhi say to my Krish, aaj agar Krish ko kuch ho jata toh...no no no i need a break, kya karna hai Krish ke normal hone par decide karte hai Pihu for now give it a break.'

"Back to Earth beta" she hears someone calling her and comes out of her thoughts.

"Haa uncle aap kuch bol rahe the" She sees Krishi's father standing.

"Beta me aapko kitni der se bula raha hu, but aap reply nhi de rahe the, all okay na" he asks.

"Yes uncle , aap kab aaye"

"Thodi der pehle , woh Radhika se dono bache handle nhi ho rahe the toh she called Ritsy and since mere patients nhi the toh me jaldi aa gya ,aur tabhi tum dono ki aahat suni, tum log itni jaldi aa gaye shopping se, sab thik h na ?" He was a little worried.

"Haa uncle woh Krish ka thoda headache tha islie" she said , not telling the actual reason as she knew he would become worried.

"What,,jada h kya, me dekhta hu?'' he said, going towards the room.

"Nhi uncle mene medicine deke sula diya, she is sleeping now"she said.

"Paccana, thik h na woh"

"Haa uncle aur mujhe bahut bhook lagi hai" she said, taking him towards the kitchen.

"So kya khana hai, pasta?" he asked, well more like said.

"Yesssss"

And Krishi's father made pasta, since he is quite a good chef and his pasta is something to die for and Aru, Jassi, krish, all savour it and Pihu too had started loving it.

Meanwhile,

After dropping Krishi to her home, Shreyash just sped off in his car to one of the posh areas of Outer Mumbai. He finally arrived at a large bungalow and the guard opens the gates for him as he is a frequent visitor there. He barged into the house as if he owned it {Author: Ofcouse he does} and seeing him, the lady of the house who was making dinner exclaimed from the kitchen "Baby , tum aa gaye, mere liye kya laye. Chalo mujhe dikhao. Sorry me aaj tumhare sath nahi ja payi but don't worry shaadi se pehle tumhari sari shopping karne ki jimmedari meri. And yes, i brought one kurta for you, try karke batao na kesa hai"

But Shreyash was too engrossed in his thoughts to register her words. Not getting any reply from him, she again asked "Rey baby, kya hua kuch bol kyu nahi rahe tum"

She comes to him and gives him a hug asking what happened and finally finding the comfort in her embrace he broke down. All the emotions which he had kept bottled up since the moment he saw his ex came out.

~So, is Pihu's gut right, Is Something really amiss between our ex-lovebirds?

~Who is this girl calling our Shrey as baby ?
