@LEAP 5 MONTHS
@NIGHT
A huge stadium is shown with big screen at one end and a stage which is decorated well with few chairs, a table and a dice.
The stadium is covered with many posters as well.
From the decorations it can be seen that the stage is set for an election campaign.
Few people are sitting on a chair in the stadium and looking around. They are none other then Tej Singh Oberoi, Abhishek Singhania, Abeer Malhotra, Karan Singhania and Shivaay Singh Oberoi.
Karan: Abeer you still have time think about it before you end up on wrong way
Abeer: I can say same for you too Karan.
Abhi: Both of you stop it. It’s neither the right time nor the right place to talk all this.
Shivaay: But tomorrow would be the end of everything. No one can stop this disaster from engulfing the Khorana’s.
Tej: Of course their count down started the day they took advantage of us. Now it’s their turn to pay.
Abhi: Are you all in.
All nod.
Karan: Think once more about this Abeer.
Abeer: She has to prove herself what does she thinks that she will say and I will trust her for once and for all. No not happening.
Karan: Fine then.
Abhi: Let’s go tomorrow is a heck lot of day for all of us to handle.
All nod and leave.
@MALHOTRA MANSION
Abeer enters the house, his face is all gloomy and he is fighting a constant battle with his own self.
Meher: Abeer come have dinner with everyone.
Abeer: Fine.
Madhvi (Abeer’s mom): Abeer when are you taking Meher to honeymoon it has been five months for your marriage.
Abeer looking at Meher actually glaring at her: Very soon Mom. Something will happen and change everything.
His words meant more then just a mere sentence.
Kuber (Abeer’s dad): What do you mean Abeer?
Abeer getting his innocent look back: I mean our relation. Everything will perfect in our relation soon.
He smiles at Meher.
Madhvi: Come sit today Meher has made your favourite food.
Abeer nods and sits beside Meher.

Om nods and reciprocates.
Shivaay come up: Guys come on let’s have a last look and then we all need to fetch some rest and peace for ourselves tomorrow is an important day.
Ishu: Ji bhaiya.

Shivaay goes and gets few things.
Anika: What’s this Shivaay?
Shivaay: Watches, brooches and Bluetooth’s for everyone.

Brooches have cameras and you all have to use Bluetooth.
All nod and take their respective things.
@ TERRACE
Om and Ishu are sitting leaning to the wall.
Om: Ishu who our lives changed just with a knock that day.
Ishu: Ya if she wouldn’t have come we would have never got a lead. But I genuinely feel bad for Abeer bhai. He has sacrificed so much for me and above all he married Meher Bhabhi. I just hope that after tomorrow they be together always not because of me but for each other. I just hope to see them happy always.
Om: Ishu I have seen love in Abeer bhai’s eyes for Meher Bhabhi I am sure if things happen the way we want them to happen definitely after tomorrow bhai and Bhabhi will be together for always.
Ishu: I just hope that this happens. I don’t want them to be tied up just for me.
Om: This will happen and if not we will make it happen. But I know Abeer bhai has forgiven Meher bhabhi he is just afraid of being betrayed but if his fear get nullified tomorrow then he will accept Bhabhi whole heartedly and mark my words he will keep Bhabhi as a queen.
Ishu smiling mischievously: Just the way you keep me.
Om looks at her understanding her intentions he decides to play along.
Om coming close to Ishu: Ishi do I really keep you like a princess (Ishu nods) then it’s your duty to keep me like a prince.
Saying this he comes more close in meanwhile Ishu moves away making him fall from his siting position.
Ishu laughs at him while he makes an irritated face.
@BALCONY
Shivaay is siting on chair when Anika comes and hands him a cup of coffee.
Anika: What are you thinking Shivaay?
Shivaay: Just about tomorrow.
Anika: Don’t worry everything will be fine.
Shivaay holding her hand: I hope so.
Anika: Okay so tell me what will you do after all this ends.
Shivaay: I will go and sleep.
Anika hits him: Sleep are you mad Shivaay, when ever I try to talk something romantic you just spoil it.
Shivaay chuckles: So what do you want? Do you want to get married to me after this.
Anika blushing: Maybe.
Shivaay: What maybe tell me. I am all ready.
Anika: Shut up.
Shivaay: Aare it has been one year since we are bf-gf don’t you want to marry me.
Anika: Can’t we talk something else.
Shivaay: But now only you wanted me talk romantic.
Anika: Billu ji is this called romantic talk.
Shivaay: Then what do you want. You should be standing in shiffon saree dancing in -3 temp and me coming from behind and back hugging you with my shivering hands and then we dancing on a romantic song and by next day we both will become ice creams.
He chuckles while Anika hits him.
@MALHOTRA MANSION
@MEHEBEER’S ROOM
Abeer comes in the room while Meher is setting the bed. Abeer looks at her with mixed of emotions in his eyes.
@FLASHBACK
Abeer comes to Malhotra mansion 5 months back. His condition is completely distraught and he looks paler then ever.
Madhvi: What happened Abeer?
Abeer harshly: Nothing.
Kuber gets worried for him: Say it my son what happened to you?
Abeer looks at him without moving a single muscle.
Kuber: Come have a drink with me.
Abeer walks to the bar counter and throws the bottle away in anger.
Madhvi gets really worried: Abeer what happened to you?
Abeer: Those Singhania’s they are the biggest cheat I have ever met in my life. They cheated me. They lied to me they have always made fake promises. They are culprit of my love. That Ishaana she is the worst women I have ever met. I treated them as a family but all they did is to use me. They are gold diggers I hate them.
Kuber smiles but soon hides it too this doesn’t goes unnoticed by Abeer who smirks without coming in anyone’s notice.
Kuber: I told you earlier itself leave them. They have nothing. These low class people aren’t worth of anybody.
Madhvi: What are you saying Abhishek bhaiya is your so close friend?
Kuber: He was my friend now no more. He is just a person who has lost everything.
Something burnt inside Abeer hearing this for him Abhishek was his father he had loved Abeer like his own son and today Abeer’s own father rubbishing Abhi enraged him to infinity.
“Can my father be more ridiculous” is the only thought to ring in his head.
Abeer continues: Because of them I lost my Meher. I lost her.
Kuber keeping a hand on his shoulder: You didn’t loose her I will get her for you.
Abeer: How I really wanted to marry her. I love her alot.
Kuber: If Meher Khorana will marry someone then it will be Abeer Malhotra only.
Abeer: Really dad.
Kuber: It’s my word Abeer. I will get her for you.
Abeer smiles and hugs him.
“Thank you for my first victory dad. Thanks I had to do this to protect Meher as I have promised Pragya ma and I won’t back of from my promise. I can even die for them then getting married to Meher isn’t a big enough a deal.”He thinks.
Soon Kuber and Khorana’s decide to get Meher and Abeer married and within a week or two both get tied in a relation called “MARRIAGE”.
“ABEER” The word from his wife brings him out of his thought.
Abeer: Yes.
Meher: Why are you zoned out?
Abeer rudely: Why do you care?
Meher feels bad: Abeer I know you haven’t forgiven me for my mistake and don’t worry I won’t be a burden on you once all this ends I will also leave you. But trust me this time I am not lying.
Abeer: We will see to it soon.
Meher nods.
Meher: Abeer do you really hate me.
Abeer looking everywhere but her: I don’t have time to answer stupid questions.
Meher a little louder then her tone: This isn’t a stupid question for me Abeer.
Abeer: Look I really need some sleep and now please allow me.
Meher stops him: Not before you answer me. I agree I did a mistake but was that mistake so big that you can’t forgive me or forget it. Can’t you trust me again.
Abeer holding her from her shoulder tightly: Oh really Meher Khorana you want me to trust you even after knowing that your dad has sent you here to spy on me and make me coin the information against Singhania’s and Oberoi’s. Why the hall shall I trust you who knows with who you are playing.
Meher: I am not playing any games Abeer, you need to know that very well.
Abeer: But still you are going to bluff someone either your dad or me and how can I expect anything from you.
Meher: You can never trust me. Right?
She says getting back to her question with teary eyes.
Abeer without saying a word moves towards his bed.
Meher holds his arm: Speak something damn it.
Abeer removes her hand and goes to his bed.
@2:00 a.m.
At mid night Meher wakes up and goes to Abeer’s cupboard and opens it, she takes out a CD and a file very carefully from the drawer.
Meher’s thought: If everything has to end then this will be the better way to end everything tomorrow. I am sorry Abeer for whatever I have done and I am sorry for hurting you but I love you genuinely.
She leaves from there and goes and gives the CD and file to Kuber, who smiles at receiving it.
Back to room she goes and sleeps on the couch. After a while when she slept Abeer wakes up and goes to her bending at her side he creases her hair and places a kiss on her forehead.
Abeer: I really love you Meher and I trust you more then myself but I can’t help all this right now. Just one day after this one day I will myself tell you what you mean to me. Try to understand please.
He scoops her in bridal style and makes her lie on the bed comfortably.
@NEXT DAY
The entire family is standing in temple praying for their day to be a big success.
Dadi: All the best to all of you.
All smile and take blessings from elders.
