The scene starts from Preeta's office.

Parth knocked on the door and heard a quick 'Come in' from the other side. He opens the door and enters inside to look at his friend.

Preeta - Take a seat.

Parth - Meine patah laga liya hai, prithvi ne apne aadmiyon ko paise diye the iske liye 😤

Preeta - Ha prithvi ka call aaya tha mujhe 😕

Parth - Kitna ghatiya aadmi hai, matlab saamne se call kar raha hai tujhe itna sab karne ke baad 🙄

Preeta hums thinking about Karan and Pihu. How that monkey (Prithvi) threatened her that he'll harm them. At that moment her whole world stopped for a bit. She couldn't think about them being in danger. 💔

Parth - Kya soch rahi hai?

Preeta - Usne bola ki woh Karan aur Pihu ko harm karega, mujhse chhin lega 🥺

Parth knew that Karan was her husband and Pihu was her daughter but didn't know anything more than that.

Parth - Woh kuch nhi kar paayega

Preeta - Meine security badhva di hai ghar ke liye, mein nhi chahti ki meri wajah se koi bhi harm ho 😞

Parth kept his hand on hers and says.

Parth - Don't worry kuch nhi hoga kisiko bhi 😌

Preeta nodded.

Parth - Aage ka plan kya hai?

Preeta - Abhi ke liye jo raaita faila hua hai usko sametna hai, bohot meetings lined up ho gayi hai use attend karni hai aur board members ke saath meeting bhi hai

Parth - Aur Prithvi? 🤨

Preeta - Uska mein kuch sochti hu

Parth - Tu sochegi toh hatt ke hi sochegi matlab ab prithvi gaya 😜

Preeta smiles at him and he left as he had work.

Whole day went in attending meetings, she kept her employees on toes after this incident. Workload was huge and she wanted to fix everything in few days.

Shrishti and Sameer were also handling their department. Sameer personally went to factory and took over the work of restoration.

Shrishti was in constant touch with insurance company to recover the damage of goods caused by fire.

About Karan, he was practicing in cricket academy. After a break of 2 years, he needed to work hard on his game and he was working towards his aim of getting selected as a player in BCL team.

Night

All were silently having the dinner.

Rishi was thinking about Prithvi and his thoughts were broken with a phone ring.

Rishi - Please excuse me.

He left to his room and picks up the call.

Rishi (on call) - Bolo vishesh (his PI) kya patah chala tumhe?

Vishesh (on call) - Sir, preeta ma'am is already married.

Rishi - What? 🤯

Vishesh - Yes sir unki marriage ko 3 saal hue hai, meine aapko unke marriage ka video bheja hai, ye bhi patah laga hai ki kisine media houses ko paise de kar ye baat ko daba di hai isliye kahin bhi ye khabar nhi hai

Rishi - Kon hai uska husband? 😧

Vishesh - Sir, Karan Luthra.

Rishi was in shock. He said a quick thanks to his investigator and cuts the call.

Rishi saw the video of Preeran's first marriage and second marriage.

Rishi - Do baar shaadi kyu? 🤔

He shook his head and goes out to call Kajal.

Rishi (shouts) - Kajal!

Kajal looked up and all looked at Rishi.

Rishi - Kuch baat karni hai, room mein aao 🙃

All continued their eating and Kajal left to their room. She closed the door and looked at Rishi.

Kajal - Kya hua? 😧

Rishi showed her the video of Preeta's marriage.

Kajal - Preeta shaadishuda hai? Aur Karan uska pati hai? 🤯

Rishi - Mujhe bhi abhi patah chala hai, vishesh ka call aaya tha, I knew it kuch toh chal raha hai Karan aur Preeta ke bich 😳

Kajal - Aapko aisa kyu lag raha tha? I mean aapko shak hua tha pehle se ya?

Rishi - Meine unn dono ko notice kiya tha kajal, kaise woh dono ek dusre ko dekhte hai isliye meine vishesh se kaha ki preeta ke past ke baarein mein sab kuch dhundh nikaale 😥

Kajal - Humne jab bhi preeta ko uske past ke baarein mein puchha tab usne hume kuch nhi bataya, aur humne bhi decide kiya tha ki jab tak woh khud aa kar nhi batayegi hum kuch nhi karenge 😢

Rishi - Hm lekin ab hume sach patah lag gaya hai 😟

Kajal - Kya kare ab?

Rishi - Confront nhi kar sakte

Kajal - Nhi nhi woh already pareshaan hai prithvi ki wajah se aur nhi hone denge, ek kaam karte hai normal behave karte hai, jaise ki hume kuch patah hi na ho 😥

Rishi - Mein dekhna chahta hu ki woh saamne se aakar hume sach batati hai ya nhi, we will wait for it kyuki mujhe lagta hai aur bhi bohot kuch chhupaya hai usne apne dil mein 🥺

Kajal - Hm ab bahar chalte hai

Both goes out of their room to dining table. They both sat on their seats and continues their dinner.

Preeta - Koi problem hai kya? 😟

Rishi - Ye toh hume tujhse puchhna chahiye ☹️

Kajal held his hand and signed him not to say anything.

Kajal - Kuch nhi hua, w.. woh delhi se rishi ki mom ka call aaya tha bass 😅

Preeta knew that she was lying as she stuttered in between but chose not to push her.

Preeta - Ok.

Next Day

Preeta spent her night with a bundle of files in her private office.

As usual she was firstly greeted by her worst nightmare in the morning. 💔

She was panting heavily and walked towards a glass of water. She drank some and rubbed her forehead.

Preeta - Nhi yaar subah subah headache nhi 😫

She goes out of her private office and reached her room and got ready for her office.

She was about to exit AM (Arora mansion) when Sarla called her to have breakfast.

Preeta - Nhi maa mann nhi hai kuch bhi khaane ka 😧

Sarla - Chal rahi hai ya..?

Preeta - Ya?

Sarla - Agar tu naashta nhi karegi toh mein bhi nhi karungi

Preeta (whines) - Maaa 😫

Sarla smiles and pulled out a seat, Preeta sat down and pouted at her.

Others also came to table and settled down. Sarla was feeding Preeta with her own hands.

Pihu - Nina nina mujhe bhi khilao na 😌

Sarla - Aaja mera baccha 😍

Sarla kept the plate aside and lifted Pihu in her arms and made her sit on table.

Sarla also started feeding her and Pihu cutely smiles. Preeta was admiring them with a little smile.

Karan - Pihu aaj aap apne dadda ke saath breakfast nhi karoge ☹️

Pihu - Nhi aaj mein nina ke saath breakfast karungi 😛

Karan cutely pouts and Preeta avoid looking at him. It hurted him the most but he still smiled.

Karan goes near the trio and says to Sarla.

Karan - Mujhe bhi khila dijiye na maa 🥺

All was witnessing the scene silently. Singhanias smiled at them and Luthras were happy except Chudail gang.

Sarla glares him for his wrong doings and looked at Preeta who looked away.

Karan - Maa.. please 🥺

Sarla nods with a stern face and offers him a bite. Karan blinked away his tears and chews his food.

Preeta - Mujhe der ho rahi hai mein jaa rahi hu 😶

Servant came towards her with a bouquet of flowers and says.

Servant - Ma'am ye aapke liye aaya hai

Preeta took the bouquet and nods at him. Servant left and all got confused.

Kajal - Waah pree tere liye kisine bouquet bheja hai (eyes Rishi) yahan mera pati toh mujhe ek phool bhi nhi deta 😒

Rishi - Pichhle mahine toh diya tha meine ☹️

Kajal - Ek mahina hogaya uss baat ko 😤

Shrishti - Arey aap dono ladaai mat kijiye 😂

Sameer - Dii aap dekho na kisne bheja hai

Preeta pulled out a note and reads it out loud.

Hey baby, sending you your favorite red roses with all the love. I love you the most and I am proud of you sweetheart. <3

- Forever yours

Kajal (teases) - That's so sweet, sweetheart 😏

Preeta glares her and Kajal laughs.

Kajal - Kon hai ye? Baby sweetheart bol raha hai tujhe 😜

Karan smilingly looked away.

Flashback starts

Karan - Tch prithvi toh hume chhod hi nhi raha, preeta se badla le liya usne, saamne mil jaaye toh chatni bana dunga uski, zameen ke andar gaad dunga uss bakre ko (sadly) preeta kitni sad hogi (smiles) idea, usko kal flowers bhejta hu, her fav ones, use achha lagega 😍

Flashback ends

He looked at Preeta and saw a little smile on her face as she was re - reading the note.

Karan (in mind) - Tum hasti ho toh bohot khubsurat lagti ho, mein tumhe roz aise hi notes bhej kar khush karvata rahunga 🥰

Shrishti - Kisne bheja hai?

Preeta - Naam hi nhi likha usne apna, mujhe kaise patah ki kisne bheja hai? 😧

Preeta turned the note but found it blank. She thought for a while but shook her head and kept the note inside her pocket.

Preeta (to servant) - Ye flowers mere room mein rakh dena

Servant nods and left with flowers.

Preeta and Shrishmeer went to office. Karan sighs and took Pihu in his arms.

Karan - Aapko school ke liye ready kar deta hu 😅

Pihu kissed his cheek and says.

Pihu - Ok papa 😀

He left to his room and Pihu goes and changes into uniform.

Karan - Tie baandh deta hu ruko

Pihu - Papa

Karan hums.

Pihu - Mumma kab aayengi? 😟

Karan - Arey abhi abhi toh office gayi hai na aapki maasi aur aapke chachu ke sath 😇

Pihu - Nhi, mumma humare paas kab aayengi? 🥺

Karan - Bohot jald aa jaayengi I promise 🥺

Pihu - Papa aap pichhle 2 saalon se promise karte aa rahe ho lekin mumma nhi aayi humare paas 😢

Karan looks away in tears.

Karan - Preeta jald se jald aapke paas aayengi

Pihu - Papa, mumma ke bina nhi raha jaata 😭

She started crying and Karan hugs her tightly in tears.

Pihu - Harr saal mother's day pe school mein sab apni mumma ko le kar aate hai, sab celebrate karte hai

Karan broke the hug and took her hands in his.

Pihu (sobs) - Mein.. mein ek kone mein baithi rehti hu dadda 😭💔

(Ah I don't wanna hurt her, she's so precious 😭)

Karan was crying. He didn't know how his whole world took 180° turn and messed up all the happy things that were going on his life.

He was angry on Sherlyn as because of her, he lost his friendship with preeta, due to her, he lost his wife.

Karan - Abhi aap school jao hmm? Deri ho rahi hai na? Mein aapki mumma se baat karta hu 😇

He smiles and Pihu sadly nods.

Karan made her wear tie and made her ponytails. She looked cute and he kissed her forehead.

Karan brought her to living room where Aayush and driver were waiting for her.

Karan - Bye, sambhaal kar jana 😌

Pihu - Bye dadda 😇

Karan - Bye - bye 😅

They left with driver and he left to his room for getting ready for academy.

Just like this their day started and got over with work.
