The whole family paced outside the doctor's office as Piyush was discussing about Kashish's condition with the neurologist and his team. Sujal, who heard about the accident, came running towards the hospital, leaving a disgruntled Archie behind.

Sujal couldn't slow his beating heart. His Kashish , his love, was in an accident. What if she was heavily injured? What if she is in pain ? She was alive, obviously. Sujal's heart would have stopped automatically if she wasn't breathing. He was sure of that. Even though, she hates him now. Even though, she is now officially, Piyush's wife. Even though, she had already consummated her marriage with Piyush. None of these things mattered to Sujal. 

He raced down the halls, looking for her. He saw the whole family. He slowed down. Piyush came out of the office. 

"Kashish ko temporary amnesia ho gaya hai. Woh apni zindagi ka kuch hissa bhula chuki hai. Yeh temporary hai ya permanent abhi doctors keh nahi sakte. Kyunki koi bleeding nahi hai, woh usse discharge karna chahte hai. Par humein ye dhyan rakhna padega ki iss waqt usse koi stress nahi de. Woh jaisa soch rahi hai , vaise hi continue hone de." said Piyush.

All the family stared at him astonished. Sujal , who heard everything in the hallway, stood in shock silently. Kuch hissa bhula chuki hai ? What did that mean ?

"Piyush beta, phikar mat karo. sab kuch theek ho jaayega. Docs jaise bol rahe hai , hum vaise hi karenge....Kya bhul chuki hai kashish ?" asked CG.

"Usse lagta hai, ki aaj uski aur Sujal ki sagai hai." said Piyush, looking down, depressed.

The ground shook below the whole family's feet. Sujal turned in shock, to look at Piyush.

Piyush's eyes suddenly fell on Sujal. The whole family turned to look at him, hatred visible in their eyes. Why was he here ? Vasu was just going to make some comment on him when, Kashish opened her door and came into the hallway. Seeing everybody, she smiled.

"Arre , aap sab yaha...mere liye aaye ? Mein bilkul theek hoon". she said.

"Kashish beta, tum tayyar kyun hogayi ? tum thode aur din yaha.." said Lalit.

"Uncle" started Kashish, as Lalit got shocked to listen to her calling him uncle instead of Papa.

"Aap meri phikar mat kijiye. Mein ekdum theek hu. Aur vaise bhi aap sabko iss waqt mere ghar par hona chahiye. Aaj meri aur Sujal ki sagai hai na, kitne saare kaam honge."

All of them just stared at her.

"Sujal.." called out Kashish, spotting him. "Tum bhi yaha..." she said walking towards him.

She stopped in front of him His were slightly moist but his expression stony. She understood. 

"Arre...darr gaye the ?" she asked.

Sujal just stared at her , not knowing what to say. It was as if she was a changed person. She was suddenly the same innocent girl, he fell in love with. Her demeanor, her emotions, the love in her eyes. How , he had missed this Kashish in the last few months.

"Sujal.." she called, placing her hand on his arm, as if it is the most natural thing in the world. He turned to look into her eyes. Kashish saw a lot of pain in his. She din't understand. Why was he in so much pain ? He was fine till yesterday. Was it her accident ?

"Sujal", she said cupping his cheek. " Sorry, mein phir aise laparvahi nahi karungi. Kahiin nahi jaungi tumhe chod ke".

Thoda sa pyaar hua hai

Thoda hai baaki

They share an intense eyelock. Slowly becoming aware , that the family is watching them, Kashish lowers her hand and turns.  Veena was looking at them , sad. Rishi was looking as if Christmas came early. Vasu was looking, as if her eyes were ready to fall out of it's socket.  Piyush looked like a lost deer in the jungle.

"Umm..woh...papa ghar pe pareshaan ho rahe honge, mein ghar ke liye nikalti hu." said Kashish, blushing, slightly.

"Nahi, Kashish..ruko.." called Piyush. " Woh...sagai...sagai cancel ho gaya...tumhare papa ko urgently Manipal jaana pada, isliye. Aur tumhare ghar par koi nahi hai. Tum iss halat mein akele nahi jaa sakti ghar. Tum humare saath chalo. Humare ghar." 

"Aapke ghar ? Par mein  kaise aapke ghar ..?" she said, slightly looking towards Sujal.

"Haan beta" said Lalit. " Humne, already Professor saab se baat kar lia. Tum kuch din humare saath rahoge. Chalo."

"Oh...Ok then." said Kashish. She turned to look at Sujal. " Chale" she asked.

Sujal looked here and there, not knowing what to do.

"Chalo, Kashish, tum jaake gaadi mein baith jao. Hum dono, bas paperwork complete kar ke aayenge" said Piyush.

As Kashish started off with the family towards the house, Piyush stopped in front of Sujal.

"Sujal...Kya tum please ghar chaloge, kuch din ke liye ? Mein apne liye nahi, Kashish ke liye tumse request kar raha hoon." he asked, not meeting his eye.

Sujal thought for a moment. Was he supposed to go to the same house that humiliated and threw him out of the house for the women who was actually the reason behind all this ? The same women who hates him vehemently.

Sujal turned to follow Piyush out of the hospital.

Rishi, who was standing and watching the whole scene, took out his mobile and called Mouli.

"Baby suno, mein kuch din ghar nahi aane wala . I have some place really important to be."

Cutting the call, Rishi smiled. This was going to be EPIC :-)
