RECAP: Shivika and Rumya are unable to see the complete video……….Ishkara take the PD from Shivika’s room…….ShivRu breakdown……AniSou console ShivRu……..Ishana decides to reveal the truth after seeing ShivRu’s state…..Om stops her saying she also knows only half of the truth…….ShivRu and AnIshSou are shocked

At present, Oberoi Mansion,

Ishana left from there. Shivika and Rumya also left, as they knew it was no use talking about anything at this point of time. Om stood there defeated, he had lost his brothers and now he lost his Ishu, his reason to live, his strength, and his inspiration, his everything. He sat down with a defeated look.

*FLASHBACK TO TEN YEARS AGO*

City Hospital, Dadi’s room,

Om was sitting near Dadi’s bed, he had come there to talk to her but from the past ten minutes, all he could do was hug her tightly and cry, he was crying badly and Dadi was caressing his back, she didn’t stop him as she knew he wouldn’t be able to do it later, after sometime, Om wiped his tears and looked up at Dadi, however the thought that she would leave him soon brought fresh tears, he couldn’t control his emotions,

Omkara: This is not fair Dadi, why are you making me do this? I can’t, I just can’t do this. Please don’t make me do this, I won’t be able to forgive myself. Please Dadi, don’t do this to me.
Dadi: Puttar, kabhi kabhi zindagi mein aise faisle lene padte hai jo hum nahi chahte ki hum le, par unhe lena bhi bahut jaroori hota hai, bas yeh bhi aisa hi ek faisla hai.
Omkara: Dadi, I don’t want to take this decision, I don’t have any right to do it alone, yeh sabka faisla hona chahiye sirf aapka ya mera nahi.
Dadi: I know that but I also know my family, no one will ever agree. Billu will never accept this and Rudra, for him Billu’s word is his final word, baki sab bhi wahi karenge.
Omkara: Dadi, even I’ll do what Shivaay and Rudra will do. Why do you think I’ll do anything that my brothers are against?

Dadi: Because only you know, rishto se mile Zakham ka dard kya hai (Om looked at her surprised) I’ll explain but promise me you’ll never tell this to anyone not even Ishana (Om agreed) You know when Tej, Shakti and Roop were kids, your Dadaji and I had many dreams about how our children would make us proud…….your Dadaji worked day and night to give the three the best of all.……He wanted to see his sons successful but fate didn’t give him that opportunity……..However one by one, all of them broke our dream…….Roop married Viren despite knowing of his criminal involvement………Tej and Shakti used all means, good or bad torun the business…….slowly, slowly all my expectations from them were over………and after the events of the past two years and Roop’s recent visit has hurt me……..It makes me feel I have failed not only as a mother but also as a wife, as I coulnt complete the promise made to your Dadaji……..but I am happy that he died before seeing his children whom he loved the most like this…….i know Tej and Shakti are repenting and have changed for good but now I don’t have the same trust in them as earliar……and I don’t want to have any expectations from them……..not again…….to be laid down………not again……….Dont ever tell this to anyone……I don’t want my children to blame themselves for anything……..kya karu hu to unki maa…….

Dadi wiped her tears, Om just couldn’t believe that his Dadi, his very own Dadi could have so many suppressed emotions, he had always known a Dadi, who was happy, cheerful and today he had known a Dadi, who was sad and depressed, he never thought that behind that bright smile so much of pain was hidden, he could understand her emotions because for almost fifteen years of his life, he had also gone through the same pain, he smiled for the outside world but inside he was completely broken, he knew how much hurt Dadi must have been, there was silence for few minutes. After sometime Om spoke,

Omkara (holding Dadi’s hands): Dadi, I’ll do whatever you say. I’ll live upto your expectations, your Om will fulfill your wish.

Dadi smiled and closed her eyes. Om looked at her for a while and after that he left.

*FLASHBACK ENDS*

Om was sitting in the corridor when his last meeting with Dadi replayed in his mind, only he knew how hard it is to carry such a secret buried deep inside your heart, most difficult when everyone is try to dig it up and you have to make sure no one reaches it. From the past ten years, Om was safeguarding this secret for his beloved Dadi, although many a times he blamed himself for listening to her but after this journey of last ten years, he understood why her decision was right, but he couldn’t even share this with anyone, all he could do was keep quiet and listen to all hatred and blames.

He was lost in thoughts when he was reminded of Ishana, he quickly got up and ran to their room.

Ishkara’s room,

Om entered the room and saw Ishana buys clearing the mess he had created while searching the PD. He didn’t know how he was going to talk to her, what was he going to explain, how was he going to make her understand.

Omkara: Ishu…wo….

Ishana looked up, gave a short glance and resumed her work. She was arranging the bed properly, she didn’t even look at him for the next five minutes, Om knew how much she was hurt, he had never accepted that he would have to face this day. He walked and stood next to her,

Omkara: Ishu…I….please Ishu….at least listen to me…
Ishana: I don’t think there is anything to listen now. (She left the room without giving a chance to Om to say anything)

Om stood there sad, he had hurt her badly, and he had to win her back again.

Shivika’s room,

Shivaay was standing staring at the pool, Rudra was sitting on the couch and AniSou were sitting on the bed, all lost in their own thoughts thinking about the day’s event, their thoughts were disturbed by a knock on the door, all were shocked to see Ishana standing there.

Anika: Ishu…you….here….
Ishana: I have come here to give you this (All were shocked to see the PD in her hand, AniRuMya stood up and Shivaay walked up to her)
Shivaay: What is this?
Ishana: Anwers to some of your questions.
Soumya: Di, does BBW Bhaiya know that you have brought this here?
Ishana: What do you think?
Rudra: Bhabhi, if O comes to know, he’ll be upset with you.
Ishana: He being upset is better than he lying to me.
Shivaay: But why have you brought this here, now?
Ishana: Because today I have understood how it feels when your own ppl lie to you and hide things, and so I have decided that now not only you four but we five will work together and find the complete truth and this is the first step, you all need to see this video.
Anika: But hai kya isme?
Ishana: Di, aap khud hi dekh lijiye.

Shivika and Rumya shared a few glances, Rudra took the PD from Ishana and connected it to his laptop, he pressed the play button, the video started, as the video progressed, Shivika and Rumya looked shockingly at Ishana, all of them had tears in their eyes. There was silence as the video ended. No one had words to express their feelings. Finally Anika spoke breaking the silence,

Anika: Ishu……

Ishana looked at Anika who had opened her arms, Ishana was shocked but she quickly ran and hugged Anika. Anika caressed her back, after ten long years, two sisters felt each other, Ishana was feeling safe and secure in her Di’s embrace and Anika had her world back, both of them had faced so much in life, but had never lost each other. These ten years they had lost something within them, but now they had it back.

Ishana: I am so sorry Di, I should have told you earlier.
Anika: Its ok Ishu, I understand, in fact I should be sorry, I blamed Om and you a lot without understanding your situation.
Soumya: I am also sorry Ishana di.

AnIsha looked at her and pulled her into their hug. What if they are not sisters by blood, they are and will be sisters by heart.

Shivaay: Girls, please break the hug otherwise yaha par baadh aa jayegi.

AnIshSou break the hug and looked at Shivaay in confusion, he signaled towards Rudra who was sitting with tears flowing holding Shivaay’s hand. Ishana immediately went to him,

Ishana: Rudy, kya hua?
Rudra: Aaj aap teeno ko iss tarah hug karte dekh mujhe hamare Obro moment yaad aa gaye.

Shivaay also had tears, Anika held his hand. They shared few looks comforting each other.
Ishana caressed Rudra’s hair, Ishana: Don’t worry, very soon you’ll have Obro moment.

Rudra: Sacchi
Ishana: Your Bhabhi’s promise.

They all smiled.

PRECAP: All are shocked……Prinku comes to know Om is hiding something
