"ab aapako mujhe apanee patnee ke baare mein bataana hoga! (you have to tell me about your wife now!)" shabana shouted... "i can not!" ishaan shouted "gambheerata se? log mar rahe hain aur ham thoda-thoda karake maamale ke baare mein pata laga rahe hain.. aur aapakee patnee se yojana judee huee hai ki kaise! agar tum mujhe batao..kya hua..ham ise rok sakate hain...(seriously? people are dying and we are bit by bit finding out about the case.. and there plan is connected to your wife some how! if you tell me..what happened..we might stop it...)" shabana said.

 ishaan took a deep breathe and said "naina jaayasavaal ... main kolej mein naina se mila .. vah pyaaree aur dayaalu thee .. aur vah ek bachchee thee .. ham .. ek nrty ke dauraan mile .. aur ham donon jahaan ek saath jode .. aur vah aaee ke lie abhyaas .. aur mujhe us poore din usase pyaar ho gaya .. jab ham ek doosare ke saath samay bitaate hain .. nrty abhyaas ke maadhyam se hamen pyaar ho gaya .. deting shuroo kar dee aur vah sab bakavaas .. main usake saath ek rishte mein aaya .. aur ham nrty pratiyogita jeet gae yadi aap poochh rahe hain.. jab main usake parivaar ke khaane ke lie gaya tha, usakee maan aur sautele pita. dayaalu the aur mujhe sveekaar karate the .. lekin kuchh aur mujhe ab tak pareshaan karate the .. usake asalee pita ne mujhase kaha ki vah thoda paagal kaam karata hai .. jab usake paas vah nahin hai jo vah chaahatee hai .. aur mujhe us par vishvaas nahin hua .. jaisa ki naina ne mujhase kaha tha vah apanee maan aur usake prati apamaanajanak tha .. vah jhootha tha .. mere adhikaaree banane ke baad .. naina se shaadee kee .. mujhe laga ki sab kuchh samaan ho sakata hai .. lekin nahin .. vah badal gaee ..use laga ki main use dhokha de raha hoon. .. aur chaakoo ka bahut istemaal kar raha tha .. main bahut dar gaya tha .. aur usane mujhe peeta bhee .. yah kahakar ki yah galatee se tha .. main yahaan aaya tha .. use maata-pita ke saath chhod diya .. aur mainne sach kaha .. mujhe yahaan posting milee ..aur naina chhodana nahin chaahatee... to vo aap logon ke saath rahane ko taiyaar ho gaee.. aur ve meree baat maan gae.. aur jab main chala gaya..mainne dekha aur mahasoos kiya ki meree puraanee naina vaapas aa gaee hai..jo pyaar karata hai mujhe..vah mujhe har din phon karatee hai aur mujhe bataatee hai ki kya hua..vah khush thee..lekin phir usane phon karana band kar diya.. dinon ke baad..mainne intajaar kiya..lekin ek din mujhe usakee bahan ka phon aaya..ki vah gaayab hai ... aur usane kaha ki naina ne apane asalee pita kee hatya karane kee koshish kee .. jisase main dar gaya hain.. aur ab tak main use khojane kee koshish kar raha hoon.. lekin main muskuraate hue hatyaare ke saath phans gaya hoon..yah sochakar ki naina shuroo se hee is maamale se kuchh judee huee hai... aur ab main kampharm ho gaya hoon.. (naina Jaiswal...i met naina in college.. she was sweet and kind.. and she was bit of a child.. we..met during a dance completion.. and we both where paired together.. and she came for practice.. and i fell in love with her that whole day..when we spend time with each other.. through dance practice we fell in love.. started dating and all that bullshit.. i got in relationship with her.. and we won the dance competition if you are asking.. when i went to her family dinner, her mother and step father. were kind and accept me.. but something else bothered me till now.. her real dad told me that she acts bit crazy.. when she does not have what she wants.. and i did not believe him.. as naina told me he was abusive towards her mother and her..he was a lier.. after i became officer..married naina.. i thought everything might the same.. but no.. she changed..she thought i was cheating on her.. and was using knife alot.. i was so scared.. and she even beat me..saying it was by mistake.. i came here..left her with parents..and i told the truth..i got posting here..and naina does not wanna leave... so she agreed to stay with you guys.. and they agreed to my point.. and when i left..i saw and felt once that my old naina is back..who loves me..she calls me every day and told me what happened..she was happy..but then she stop calling.. days after days..i waited..but one day i got a call from her sister..that she is missing... and she said naina tried to murder her real dad.. which made me scared.. and till know i have been trying to find her.. but i am stuck with the smiling killer..thinking that naina somewhat connected to this case from the start... and now i am conformed.." ishaan said as tear escaped his eye.. shabana holds ishaan shoulders and says "sab theek ho jaega (everything will be alright)"

rudra got a call from tara "ha, bolo ji" rudra said "jaldee ghar aao na..mujhe tumhaaree yaad aatee hai..aur main yahaan dar gaya.. (come fast home na..i miss you..and i fell scared here..)" tara said "aapako dar kyon lag raha hai. aur ishaanee aur roohee kahaan hai? main haalaanki ve bhoomi ka daura karane ke baad aae honge? (why you are feeling scared. and where is ishani and ruhi? i though they would have come after visiting bhumi?)" rudra said "mainne unhen phon kiya..aur ishaanee ne kaha ki vah samay legee.. (i called them..and ishani said that she will take time..)" tara said then she heard a ballon pop she turned around and it was a guy in joker mask.. "ai! tum yahaan kya kar rahe ho? (aye! what are you doing here?)" tara said then rudra felt a bit scared then the joker mask took out screwdriver and hit her head..

tara was thrown away and she started calling rudra name.. "TARA!" rudra shouted then kabir came out from temple and saw rudra worried and shouting tara name "rudra..what happened?" kabir asked as rudra kept his phone back in pocket as frustration "hamen..jaana hai..koee taara ko maarane kee koshish kar raha hai..agar ham nahin pahunche to..main...main use khona nahin chaahata.. (we..have to go..someone is trying to kill tara..if we do not reach..i...i do not wanna lose her..)" rudra said in worried "do not worry rudra, nothing will happen to tara..challo" kabir took rudra hand and got in bike and left.. the temple and there house was not much far they where far from the building but something fell down.. and it was tara.. she was looking at them.. "tara.." rudra said in tears..

ishani car reached by the time and saw tara body, "she..is breathing..we need to talk her to hospital" rudra said shaking.. they four reached hospital.. and doctors were treating tara.. ishani called shabana ..

shabana was at suman old house, she opened a cupboard and it was the joker mask... and was a note which was written i got you.. then she gets a call and it was ishani "ha ishani" shabana said "kisee ne taara par hamala karane kee koshish kee..vah shahar ke aspataal mein bhartee hai..krpaya..jaldee aao.. (someone tried to attack tara..she is admitted in the city hospital..please..come fast..)" ishani said..  "okay i am coming.." shabana said and left..

Ishaan was talking care of  kavita sucide case, he thought it was over finding out that surya raped kavita.. and he hired someone to kill her.. but sheel her mother said something shocking.

"aapako nahin mila. hamen yah bataane ka mauka hai ki muskuraate hue chehare ke hatyaare ne aapakee betee ko pretavaadhit kiya tha? ab tak (you did not got. a chance to tell us that your daughter was haunted by the smiling face killer? till now)" ishaan said "sar..mujhe to yakeen bhee nahin hua..aur maidam main aapako kaise bata sakata hoon (sir..i was not even sure..and how i can tell you and madam)" sheel tells "yah vyakti logon dvaara apanon ko churaane ke peechhe hai.. aur aapane aaj tak bataane kee yojana nahin banaee. (this person is after people stealing their love ones.. and you did not plan to tell until today.)" ishaan said.

kabir said good bye to shabana as she came and found out about everything.. she said she will check cctv.

 kabir noticed rudra's face touched to wall and he was crying badly he came there and asked "everything will be alright rudra" kabir said holding his shoulder he looked at him and said "mujhe abhee bhee yaad hai, jab mainne eeshaanee se kaha tha ki agar taara ke saath phir se kuchh hua to main chala jaoonga.. main usake lie achchha nahin hoon main usakee raksha nahin kar sakata..aur ek achchha saathee ban sakata hoon (i still remeber, when i told to ishani that if something bad happens to tara again..i would go away i know this day would happen,ever since she was stabbed..i always thought we can not be together.. forever i am not good for her i can not protect her..and be a good partner)" rudra said

 "rudr, tum taara ke lie sabase achchhe aadamee ho..aur vah tumase pyaar karatee hai.. aur tum usase pyaar karatee ho.. tum usake lie kuchh bhee karane ko taiyaar ho.. aur main us ehasaas ko jaanata hoon jab tum apana pyaar kho rahe ho..mujhe aisa laga..har baar.. mahak ke saath.. main nahin chaahata ki koee use nukasaan pahunchae..ab tak .. aur roohee ke saath .. jab ham toot gae .. mainne socha ki ..kabhee-kabhee pyaar ka matalab kisee ko jaane dena nahin hota hai .. jeevan sukhee..jisake ve haqadaar hain (rudra, you are the best guy for tara..and she madly loves you.. and so do you love her.. if you are not ment to be why would you fell in love with her in first place? you are willing to do anything for her.. and i know that feeling when you are losing your love..i felt that way..every single time.. with mehak.. i do not want anyone to harm her..till now.. and with ruhi.. when we broke up.. i thought that..sometimes love does not mean letting someone go..but if letting that person go..make there life okay..i am ready..to make there life happy..as they deserve..)" kabir said and took a breathe "chinta mat karo rudr, taara theek ho jaegee.. aur jab vah koma se baahar aaegee..ham usake bageeche mein jaenge.. aur bahut achchha samay bitaenge.. (do not worry rudra, tara will be fine.. and when she comes out from coma..we will go to her garden.. and have a great time..)" kabir said and rudra hugged him "thanks kabir" rudra said..

ishaan then gets a call from shankar "ha shankar" ishaan said "sir, you have to come in playschool.." shankar said "why?what happened?" ishaan asked "sir, someone has kept kids and shiv nanda as hostages, and that person needs to talk with you" shankar said "i am coming..call shabana and agashe and tell them to come there" ishaan said and he cuts the call and leaves..

shabana was checking the cctv footage and saw the same joker mask and she got confused.. are they two peoples with same mask? then she gets a call from shankar and tells her about the hostage. and she leaves..

"i go and check on shaurya.."ishani said and rudra nodded as she came inside, she saw shaurya awake and holding ruhi's hand. "ruhi" ishani planned to call her real name she turned around and said "ha?" ruhi said and she understood ruhi memories came back.

 ishaan comes there and ask shankar to share the call recording to thm..  "main sanashain ple skool se kol kar raha hoon, naina jaayasavaal main yahaan ki teechar hoon (i am calling from sunshine playschool, Naina Jaiswal i am teacher here) mainne 16 bachchon ko hostage bana Liya hai (i have taken 16 children hostage)" the women said and Ishaan gets shocked.

jhanvi smiled as he answered the call "hello" jhanvi said "ha jhanvi" it was vishal "plan is ready..come fast" jhanvi said "main aa raha hoon (i am coming)" vishal said as he turned around he saw adrika holding a gun and aiming at him "tumane jhooth kyon bola? (why did you lie?)" she said shaking.."tumhen sach pata chal gaya? (you got to know the truth?)" vishal said.

"time to finally end our revenge(aakhirakaar hamaara badala khatm karane ka samay )" mehak said looking at her and Ruhi's photo.
