They think she went for a vacation without telling them and as soon as she comes back everything falls in its place.A big event 'Milan' starts in the college and everyone participates in it including Preetha's group.On the final day of competition, Rishi decides to put forward his feelings but Karan takes her away .Their anger comes in the best form making Karan leave for London and Preetha to her home..... Luthra Mansion. That night they rewind themselves from their first meet.

BACK TO PRESENT

LUTHRA MANSION

Preetha wakes up after a long sleep. She is tired from yesterday. Looking around, she finds an empty room which instantly reminds her of Karan's departure and his fury.

She glances at the clock it is 10 in the morning. So he might have already reached London.

Quickly searching her mobile which Karan gave her yesterday she switches it on for calling him but gets surprised seeing hundreds of calls and messages from Rishi and her friends. It then reminds her of the competition,

Preetha: Oh shit!

Scolding herself, she calls Meera.

Preetha: Hello!

Meera(paniced): Preetha! Preetha Thum.....thum theek hona? Kaha ho thum?  Ham abhi aayenge. Bathao.Hello preetha kaha ho th....

Preetha: Meera.....Meera. I am fine. Mein bas.....friend ke paas hu. Kal raath kuch emergency aayi thi. Isiliye mujhe urgently jana pada.

Meera: What? Kis friend ke baare mein keh rahe ho thum?

Preetha: Bachpan ki dost hein meri. Use mujhe phone kiya aur mein aa gayi aur mein bilkul theek hu. Thum chinta mat karo.

Meera: Uffo! Thum hame bathake nai chal sakthi. Pata hein kitna dar gaye the ham. Idiot!

Preetha: I couldn't. Wo sab chodo thu bata kya hua mere jaane ke baad? Competition kisne jeetha?

Meera's voice changes instantly,

Meera: Take a guess.

Her excitement gave it away,

Preetha: We won?

Meera(yelling): Yes! Hamne jeetha.

Preetha: Wooooooow!

Meera: Along with us Wings also won. We shared the title.

Preetha: Is it?

She is so happy that Karan's hardwork yielded results but gets gloomy remembering yesterday while her friend continues,

Meera: Ha. Pata hein thumhe results  bolne ke wakth wo pehle wings ka naam bola.Ham bahot disappoint huyi lekin uske baad hamara naam bhi bathaya. Oh god! Tab thum hona chahiye tha ham itna chillaya ki upar wala bhi uth gaya hoga.

Preetha chuckles,

Meera: Sandy tho directly Principal sir ko hug kiya.You have to see his face then. Function heina tho bach gaya warna sir usko thappad deta.

They laugh,

Preetha: Achaa aur Rishi? Wo tho boast kar raha hoga ki dekha "We are the winners"!

She clearly remembers how many times he said the line while Meera's her smile changes to seriousness,

Meera: Thum Rishi se baat ki?

Preetha: Nai! Ab karungi. Kya hua?

Meera: Thum jaldi karna chahiye because he is devasted knowing you were not there.Rishi doesn't want to take Cup without you but we had to. Uske baad ham sab pura college dundliya lekin thum nai thi. Thumhara phone switch off huyi aur Rishi pagal hogaya. Mahi di ko bhi thumhare baare mein nai pata. Rishi police complaint dene keliye tayar hogaya lekin Mahi di ne roka.

Preetha: Oh god! Jaldi mein mein Teddy ko bathana bhul gayi. Pch........Yeh Rishi bhi na. Itna hyper hone ki kya jarurat thi? Mujhe kya hotha hein?

Meera: Hey wo itna bada surprise plan kiya aur thu achanak gayab hogayi tho kya karega wo bathao.

Preetha: Surprise?

Meera clicks her tongue realizing what she told while Preetha frowns,

Meera: S...sur....success party.Haa.Surprise success party.

Preetha: Ha?

Meera: Haa. Rishi ko bilkul yakeen tha ki ham jeetenge isiliye wo success party rakha aur yeh baath thumhareliye surprise tha lekin thum tho the hi nai.

Preetha feels bad about her friends,

Preetha(lowly): I am sorry Meera. I had to go. When you should be celebrating the victory you wasted your happy time concerning about me.Sorry!

Meera: You have to be because you made us so worried rora.

She chuckles at her nick name,

Preetha: Acha theekey mein aap sab ko iss Sunday treat dungi hamari favourite cafe pe.Ok?

Meera: Treat nai pura party chahiye hame.Success Party.

Preetha: As you wish!

Meera: Ok now talk to Rishi. Otherwise you will find your missing posters all around the city.

Chuckling, they end the call while Preetha decides to talk with him directly. She gets ready and goes down unaware of the drama that's gonna unfold.

Sahana: What do you say about this Sameer?

She asks throwing the paper on the table as he lowers his head,

Sahana: Dekha yeh?

Just then Preetha arrives,

Preetha: Sameer?

He gets startled and immediately goes to her,

Sameer: Bhabhi aap kamre mein jaao.Mein breakfast bhejtha hu.

Sahana: Thum abhi bhi usse support kar rahe ho?

Sameer: Ma ham baad mein baath karlenge. Please!

Preetha: Kya hua?

Sameer: Kuch nai ba ..

Sahana: Not a word. Let me handle this.

Sameer: Maaaa.....

One glare and he backs off while she comes forward standing infront of Preetha,

Sahana: Who are you?

Preetha frowns,

Sahana(slowly): Who are you?

Preetha: Preetha?

She waits,

Preetha: Preetha Karan Luthra.

Sahana: So you know that you are a Luthra now.

In this 6 months of marriage, except some rare taunts from Sahana they actually didn't have any conversation. Preetha couldn't bond with her as she is staying in hostel and  and when she is home Sahana didn't mind her presence. She talked with her only when it's necessary.

Because Preetha didn't forget how she made her father apologize and Sahana didn't forget how she made her own son lie.

Practically they are at loggerheads.

And this issue just raises their aversion,

Sahana: Then what is this?

She asks shoving the paper in her hands.Confused, Preetha opens it to see a large image of Rishi and her. It's a news article covering Milan which happened to be the huge event in the city and it's their pose from the dance where Rishi dips Preetha through waist. They are also shots of other teams but their pic was the highlight as the pose is good.

Preetha: Kal ka photos hein yeh!

Sahana: Thum college jaake yeh kar rahi ho? Dancing and enjoying.

Preetha: Aap kya keh rahi ho? Hamara college mein competition chal raha tha jis mein ham log participate kar rahe the. Karan hi ek team ka mentor tha.This was a part of it and Dad was the chief guest for yesterday night.

Sahana: I am asking about you. Is this why you wanna hide your marriage so that you can enjoy without any hesitation?

Though her words are offending, Preetha never disrespects her,

Preetha(sternly): Aapko pata hein mein kyun chupa rahi hu ......

Before she completes,

Sahana: Right. Hame pata hein lekin logon ko nai pata.

Preetha still didn't understand about what she wanna say,

Sahana: Kal thumhare baare mein pata chalne ke baad log iss photos ko lekar pata hein kya sochte hein? Luthra's ki bahu college mein ek aadmi ke saath date kiya wo workout nai hua fir Karan Luthra ko pakda.

Preetha's eyes widen at her,

Sahana: Yahi likhthe hein media. Courtesy, this photo. What do you answer them?

Preetha: Date? Wo mera best friend hein. Rishi Mehra.Family friends hein ham log.

Sahana: I don't care who is he to you. My concern is my son and our reputation. Thumne ek baar bhi hamare baare mein socha? Nai. Leave about us.Did you even remember that you are married? No. Did you think about Karan? No.Bas jaake tamasha kiya.You are behaving just like an imprudent doing whatever you want without caring about anything.

Yesterday Karan said the same and now Sahana. What are they thinking about her? Preetha didn't like it a bit,

Preetha(firmly): Luthra ki pehle mein Arora hu. Preetha Arora. My father taught me how to protect our family's name. I would never do a thing which makes you or my family bow down. Rishi.... is my friend (stressing it) and this (pointing their pic in paper).... is just a competition. Nothing else. So I suggest you not to worry about your name I won't taint it.

Sahana is not at all liking her, it's her mistake still she is speaking confidently,

Sahana: I already told you if my son is hurt then you have to face me.Now he is in pain because of you and I am not gonna tolerate that.

"I don't tolerate your behaviour towards my daughter!"

They turn to see Raghuveer standing inside with Varun. It's a jolt for Preetha,

Raghuveer: I know you don't like her Mrs.Mahesh but this is not the way you talk to her.

Sahana: My son is hurt and our name is at the verge of losing because of her.So do not tell me how to speak standing in my house Mr.Arora.

Raghuveer: I listened everything and she is not responsible for any of it.

Sahana: Now I get where she gets those traits. Like father like daughter. Marrying my son she is enjoying outside in the name of college.If she doesn't wanna take responsibilities why did she even marry?

Raghuveer: My daughter won't do such a thing Mrs Mahesh. If she says it's for the event then it is. I believe her.Actually, she doesn't have any plans to marry just because of your son's horoscope she married him. So it's your son who is at fault.

It's the limit for Sahana,

Sahana(firmly): Not a word about him Mr.Arora. If it's so difficult being married to him she can leave.

Raghuveer: Even if it's not I am not gonna leave her in a house who doesn't trust her.

Holding her hand, he takes her out while Varun follows sharply looking at Sameer and Sahana.

During the whole course, one person remains still who is now being dragged outside the Luthra Mansion.

And continues in the next part.....

Uh oh!
