In Mumbai

Vineet visits the jail and the jailer informs him something which shocks him at the core.

"kya? Aur aap logo ne mujhe batana zaroori nhi samjha" he yelled

Jailer looks down and said "sorry sir.."

"damm.. Mujhe kanpur jaana hoga agar wo waha pahuch gaya to bahut gadbad ho jayegi" Vineet thought

Kanpur

Viraj prepares food for Khushi and feeds her.

Khushi's phone rings but she disconnects.

Viraj asked her "kiska phone hai beta?"

Khushi says angrily "mumma ka.. mujhe unse koi baat nhi karni"

Viraj gets happy seeing this.. He then acts to be good in front of her "aisa nhi karte beta wo aapki maa hai na.. fikar karti hai aapki abhi aap ghar jao"

Khushi looks at him and says "thik hai aap kehte ho to jaati hoon"

Khushi leaves and Viraj sits back..

"ab thoda jaaneman se bhi mil liya jaye"

Mehra House

Khushi comes back home, Manvi asked her "kaha thi tum? Principal ne bataya tum school hi nhi aayi"

Khushi replies rudely "Haan nhi gayi main school kaha thi aapko batana main nhi chahti" and was about to go to her room.

Ruhana stops her and scolds her as she was being rude"khushi bas ye tarika nhi hai kisise baat karne ka"

Khushi looked at her and asked "aur aap sabne jo mujhe jhooth bola saalo se uska kya?" and moves to her room without hearing anything.

Anvi was also present there.. She asked Ruhana "mumma akhir baat kya hai aap batate kyun nhi ho?"

Ruhana and Manvi moves to their respective room as they had no answer to Anvi's question.

Manvi was inside her room, she had never thought her past will affect the present.

She was standing at the window someone placed hand on her shoulder. She thought it is Ruhana..

"di...Khushi ko dekho na kya hua hai" she turned and gets shocked seeing the person standing.

She was about to shout but the person placed his hand tightly on her mouth...

"shhhh... Chilana mat.. Pehle jab tumhe leke gaya tha to ab le jaane mei kitna waqt lagega?" he said threatening her.

Hearing this Manvi gets scared.. Yes he was again in front of her after years. He removed his hand and smiled at her.

"aaj bhi wahi khubsurti aur wahi darr acha laga.." he touched her face.

"lekin tumne mujhse chupaya khushi ke baare mein kyun? Acha nhi kiya mujhe jail bejhke i will ruin Aarav Mehra and you" he pressed his hand to her jaw.

He then heard knock on the door, Manvi looked at the door.. but she was too much scared of him.

Manvi pushed him and ran to the door, she opened it and Aarav was standing at the door. She hugged him in scared.. Aarav was shocked..

He asked her "kya hua? Tum itni dari hui kyun ho?"

Manvi turns and sees he was gone.. "wo yahan aaya tha.."

She panicked.. She came back inside the room and started packing the things..

"hum yahan nhi rahenge yahan se jayenge" she said

Ruhana, Anvi and Khushi comes in hearing her voice.

Aarav asked her "tum kya keh rahi ho hua kya hai?"

Manvi looked at Khushi and said "Khushi chalo hum yahan se jayenge"

Khushi replied "main kahin nhi jaungi"

Ruhana holds Manvi and asked her "kya hua hai?"

Manvi informs "wo yahan tak aa gaya hai di.. Abhi thodi der pehle wo yahan tha mere room mein"

Ruhana gets shocked... "kaun? Viraj?"

Manvi nods in yes.. "usne mujhse kahan hai.." she could not speak she just demanded to leave from kanpur.

"let's go di please.. Please" she requested holding her hand. Ruhana looked at her, the fear in her eyes. She can't afford to lose her or Khushi.

Ruhana assures her "thik hai hum chalenge"

Khushi says "aap log jayie main kahi nhi jaungi"

Manvi gets shocked "Khushi.." she took her name

"mumma wo mere papa hai aur wo bahut ache hai main ab unke saath rahungi" she declares.

Anvi said "khushi tum aise kaise jaa sakti ho"

Khushi replies "main jaa rahi hoon aap sab jayie aur mumma aap mujhse aur jhooth mat bolo aap to chahte hi nhi main unke saath rahoon"

Manvi shouts "Haan main nhi chahti hoon samjhi tum"

Khushi looked on.. "thik hai.." and smiled sarcastically.

She moved out of the room with fast steps.. Manvi went behind her "khushi ruko"

But Khushi did not listen.

Aarav held her hand "Khushi listen.."

Khushi jerked his hand away "Aapko koi haq nahi hai mujhe rokne ka samjhe aap mere kuch nahi lagte ho you are not my father" she shouted badly at him.

Aarav was hurt hearing this but he understood the situation and her state of mind.

Anvi and Ruhana also tried to stop her but Khushi left the house completely.

Manvi shouts "Khushi meri baat suno"

She turns to Aarav.. "Aarav usko roko please wo galat jagah jaa rahi hai" she requested.

Aarav nods, he follows khushi who had taken the cab.

Manvi was in complete shock with this, she faints Ruhana holds her

"Mannu.."

"Maasi" Anvi called her.

Ruhana looked at the gate a person was standing there. He quickly came inside and helps them by taking Manvi inside the room.

Anvi hugs him... "papa dekho na kya ho gaya.. Khushi chali gayi, AM uske peeche gaye hai aur maasi" she did not know the actual truth but whatever was happening she was aware is not right. The family was breaking.

Vineet was left stunned as what ever he saw now was unbelievable. Yes his fear was right Viraj had returned and reached them.

Anvi further tells him whatever happened in past few days.

Here Aarav was following Khushi. He brought his car in ahead and stopped. The cab also stopped.. Aarav came out quickly and went to the cab.

He opened the door and pulled out Khushi.

"ye kya kar rahi ho tum khushi" he asked her.

Khushi jerk him away "aapse matlab.. main aapne papa ke pass jaa rahi hoon".

Aarav asked her "acha.. To main kaun hoon? Haan jab tum choti thi na to apna dost bulati thi aur aaj iski ko chodke jaana chahti ho?"

Khushi answers him "tab mujhe nhi pta tha aap mere papa ki hi jagah le rahe ho.."

Aarav cupped her face and requested in calm tone "ek baar sach jaanlo beta"

Khushi jerked his hand away "sach maine jaan liya hai papa mujhse aur mumma se bahut pyar karte hai.. ab I will live with him"

She sits inside the cab and leaves.. Aarav shouts "Khushi listen to me"

He moved to his car, he placed his hand on the gate to open it but someone hit him hard on his back of his head. He grabbed his head from behind. He turned to see it was Viraj standing there, a smile was on his face...Aarav falls down on the ground unconscious.

"tu to kya teri rooh bhi ab khushi tak nhi pahuch payegi"and left from there.

Mehra House

Ruhana, Anvi were waiting for Aarav to come back return home. It was already a hour he has left behind Khushi.

Then, Aarav comes back home empty hands.

Ruhana asked him "Aarav khushi?"

Aarav shakes his head in no... "maine usko samjhaya par usne nhi suni isse pehle main uska peecha karta kisine mere sar pe maara"

Ruhana gets shocked and drops on the sofa.

Just then they hear a noise from upstairs.. Aarav went up quickly.. He saw Manvi was sweating and breathing heavily. He sat beside her.. Manvi held his hands and asked "meri khushi kaha hai?"

Aarav gets teary "I am sorry main nhi rok paya use"

Manvi looks at him "tumne wada kiya tha na please don't do this to me.. meri khushi ko wapas lao please" she almost pleaded

Aarav secures her in a hug... Manvi says while sobbing "leke aao usko wo usko bhi nuksan pahucheyga"

Aarav said "nhi kuch nhi hoga khushi ko"

Manvi looks up at him and says a loud "tum samajh nhi rahe ho Aarav.. Tum nhi jante usne kya kiya tha mere saath"

Aarav looked at her.

Ruhana who was present inside the room tells Aarav "Mannu sahi keh rahi hai Aarav.. Aaj tum sach janlo"

Ruhana tells him everything from beginning.. He could not believe his ears.

"koi aadmi aisa bhi ho sakta hai.. Khushi ko wapas laana hoga" he left the room angrily.

He came to the garden and shut his eyes. "no.. uss insan ko main takleef nhi dene dunga. Khushi ko wapas laake rahunga main kuch bhi ho jaye" he said to himself.

Ruhana goes to Manvi and consoles her.

Manvi tells her "please di... Khushi ko lao wapas main uske bina nhi reh sakti"

She places her head on her arms and cries.

"shh.. Khushi aa jayegi aa jayegi khushi"

She tries to make her sleep. After sometime Manvi sleeps on her lap. Ruhana moves out placing her head properly.

She moved out and saw Vineet on phone.

"kuch bhi karo mujhe Viraj ki information chahiye" he ordered.

She comes and takes the phone from him and disconnects it.

"kya kya karoge ab ye karke haan? Le gaya wo khushi ko" she confronts him.

Vineet tries to explain "Ruhana listen main"

Ruhana stops him with "tum kya? Sab tumhari wajah se ho raha hai pehle tumne meri zindagi barbad ki aur tumhare bhai ne meri behen ki dekho uski halat aur waha khushi na jaane kya kardega uss bachchi ke saath wo"

Ruhana paused for a moment and then continues with tears in eyes "kabhi to apna wada nibhaya karo.. Kaha tha na tumne usko saza milegi to kyun aaya wo wapas.. Agar iss baar kuch galat hua na to main bhi nhi janti main kya karungi" and went away from there frustrated.
