shresht: she was here a few minutes ago….but di u need rest and
sanskar: what do you mean by she was here i thought she left 5 years ag….are u in touch with her?`(screams at shresht)
shresht:(shocked)ahmmm ummm woh …i….we met a few days b4(and tells them evrything)
swara:(shocked)if she came here with you…..i doubt she left without informing . she doesn’t show unprofesionalism…
sanskar and shresht were surprised that swara was complimenting her and also the fact that she knows divya more than they thought ….
swara: answer me u idiots where is she…should i repeat it a thousand times….
shresht looks down acknowldging his mistake of leaving her alone outside in the rain….silently
sanskar: i should never have given my nod for the marriage…. u are an irresponsible brat shresht all ur life u were tied to ur sister’s pallu…..blo*dy hell what was i thinking….(he mutters at the end)
shresht: enough stop right there u talk as though u have kept my SISTER in pure bliss….u maheshwari siblings have given us pain…only that…one way or the other

sanskar fumes listening to this and walks away from their……….swara remembers dropping a file and runs in to get it with shresht hot on her heels…..

shresht: di stop running….lets go back home a lot has happened in these 5 years
swara cuts in and snaps at him “and many things are yet to happen as for going back home NO atleast not until i finish all my responsiblities towards….(she stops and closes her eyes)
shresht: maheshwari house…….thats all u ever think about na ma baba dadi dada no one matters . for god’s sake di why don’t you understand he was cheating on you with that bi CHAP(swara slaps shresht)
swara: all of u men are alike INSENSITIVE u fail to understand that ur mistrust brings us pain u are no better than sanskar

she screams and runs away leaving a confused and hurt shresht behind…..he pulls himself out of the daze and starts lookng for divya….after walking for a straight 30mins he reaches the car and looks at divya lying on the road beside his car…..trying to shield herself from the harsh climate……he reaches home and calls the doctor…….

AN HOUR LATER…..
the doctor left and divya was sleeping …..she would mumble his name a few times and hiss in pain but din’t open her eyes……giving him enough time to process his sister’s words and the past happenings

IN LODGE that swara stays……
swara:(to herself)i need to contact divya…..she came back and never bothered infoorming me did she get any clue on what happened back then? did she find him ……..ragini meri behen ki zindagi barbaad kar di ya usne and divya is keeping secrets at this point when we finally meet….i am so done with this idiot of a girl . and these guys they are anything but understanding aur shresht ne toh had hi kar di uske saath i wish we could solve this and go back to bhopal……and rajesh bhaiya’s property issue also needs to be sorted out
(she picks up the file and starts going through it)o shit yeh company toh sanskar ka hai (she looks tensed)kal ke baad toh wo muje baav bi nai dega ajeeb ceez hai kismat bhi jise bhaag rahi hoon usi ke saamne aakar khada kar deta hai…..(she comes down and boards a taxi)

IN MAHESHWARI ANSION
