Mukti searched for Abhimanyu but he is nowhere to be found. She meets Manik who is on his way back home. "Manik!" she called him. "Mukti! Kya hua? Is everything alright?" he asked her. "Abhimanyu kaha hai?" she asked him anxious. "Wo ghar gaya hoga, he signed off for the day" Manik said. "No, I don't think he would go there" Mukti said worrying about him. "Lets not make assumptions, I'll call him" Manik said and Mukti informed him that he is not taking her calls. "I was right, he is at your home and he didn't took your calls because he went to take bath, wo tumhe hi call karne wala tha" Manik said after talking to Abhimanyu. "I wish tum jo bol rahe ho wo sahi hai" Mukti said. "Mukti, don't worry, Abhimanyu has asked me to get you there, come, we'll go" Manik took Mukti to her place.

Abhimanyu got his luggage packed and waited for Mukti and Manik. Ishitha and Raman stood outside Abhimanyu's room. They saw Mukti and Manik. "Abhimanyu has decided to leave from here Mukti" Raman said to her. "Can I talk to him once?" Manik asked Raman. "Yeah he said he is actually waiting for both of you" Raman said knocking. Abhimanyu came out and announced to everyone that he wants to move out from there. "Mujhse kuch galti ho gaya kya?" Mukti asked him teary-eyed. "No Mukti, please listen to me" Abhimanyu tried to explain but Mukti interrupted him. Raman and Ishitha stood there without talking anything. "Mom dad why aren't you saying something?" Mukti asked them.

"Why are you doing this now? You came into my life, you were just a colleague but then you said we're friends and jab mein idhar humara future ke sapne dekh rahi hu tho tum mujhe chod ke chale jaane ki baat kar rahe ho, I hate you Abhimanyu" she said with tears. She held his collar and looked into his eyes, "I love you Abhimanyu, please mujhe chod ke kahi mat jaana" she said hugging Abhimanyu. "Sorry to interrupt, but can I know something?" Manik talked as he had no clue. "What?" Mukti asked him. "Mukti, don't you know yaha kya ho raha hai? Why is Abhi leaving?" Manik's question startled and confused her. "Nahi, we didn't tell her" Raman said. "Tho wo isliye ro rahi hai" Abhimanyu said. "Papa, kya hua? Koi mujhe batayega" Mukti asked wiping her tears. "Raman bahut ho gaya, I will tell her now" Ishitha said. "Mukti, Abhimanyu kahi nahi jaa raha hai, he just wanted to shift to new place, because usko ghar jamai nahi ban na hai" Ishitha said smiling. "Ghar jamai?" Mukti asked surprised.

"Ha Mukti, we will live separately after marriage" Abhimanyu declared. "I'm crying for you there, and here you are discussing marriage with my parents!" Mukti hit him. "Slowly Mukti, it hurts" Abhi said. "Manik, dude please help me in finding a new flat soon" Abhimanyu asked Manik. "Ha, wo tho ho jayega but shaadi tak tum mere ghar mein ruk jao please, mom will definitely be happy about it" Manik continued "technically Mukti ko ek sasural jaana hai na" Manik said and Mukti smiled. "Sirf shaadi tak ruk jao, we'll give you privacy after that" Manik said. Manik was about to say something but is shut down by Abhimanyu. "Maine mana kiya nahi na, please shut up" Abhimanyu said.

"Maine Cabir aur Navya ke baare mein suna hai" Nandini said to Aryaman. "Ha, even I've heard it from Cabir, at least both of them opened up now" Aryaman said. "Wo dono kitne ache dost hai aur ek misunderstanding ki wajhe se, ye sab ho raha hai! I can't believe it" Nandini said. Aryaman smiled at her. "Cabir se maine ye bhi suna hai ki tum Sanju and her fiancé ko lekar sure nahi ho" Aryaman looked at her. "Lagta hai Cabir ne aaj bahut saara secrets bahar nikaal diya" he said. "Aryaman, tum uske liye medical camp chod ke gaya tha! Are you serious?" Nandini asked him.

"Kitne din hua na, hum aise baat kiye" Aryaman tried to divert her. "Answer me Aryaman" Nandini stayed focus. "Kya batao! I know ye sab tum sabko foolish lagega but I have a strong feeling that Rakesh Sanju ke liye sahi nahi hai" Aryaman said as he looked away from her. "Maybe tum over react kar rahe ho Aryaman, if she is okay with it then it shouldn't bother anyone else" Nandini tried to put some sense in him. "Sanju, usko tho pata bhi nahi hai that Rakesh has been with someone in the hotel in Lucknow, maine khud dekha tha, and I'm going to tell her tomorrow, what all I have seen and what she means to me" Aryaman said angrily but Nandini's expressions were in contrary to him. She looked at him with amusement. "Aryaman! Do you like her, I mean do you love her?" Nandini asked.

"I know tum aise hi kuch poochogi" he said ignoring her. "And that's not the answer to what I've asked" Nandini said. "What is love to you Nandini?" Aryaman asked. "Uske liye care karna" she said randomly not knowing what to say. "Wo toh tum mujhse, Navya and Cabir se bhi karte ho" he said. "Ha because I love you all" she said justifying her answer. "Aur?" he asked her to continue, "Agar wo kisi dusre ke paas ho toh tum jealous feel ho jaoge just like you are now jealous with Sanju's fiancé" she said rolling her eyes. "Correction, I'm not jealous because I know wo Sanju ke layak nahi hai, and what jealous feel karna, wo tho tum Manik aur Alya se bhi karte ho na, just remember how you felt when Alya showed Manik's pics and he was embarrassed, what were you doing there? If eyes could kill, you would have killed Alya 20 times there, ye kya tha?" Nandini looked horrified. "Main Alya ko nahi dekh rahi thi, why would I do that?" she asked him. He stopped the car, "your destination is on your left" he said and she saw that they reached home.

She got down from the car and she bid bye to him. "Nandini" he called her and she came near her. "If that's what you think love is! Yes, I love her, I want to protect her, care for her, maybe I'll feel jealous seeing someone around her but not with that idiot Rakesh, I'll anyway see him tomorrow" he said smiling. "Wah kya baat hai, lover boy and all huh?" she teased him. "But did you realize something I've asked you about! Tum bhi Manik ki attention ke liye wait karti ho, aur jab wo attention Alya ko mili tho upset ho jaati hai, its much evident on your face Nandini" Aryaman said and Nandini didn't reply. "Good night" he said and Nandini has sent him off. She goes in.

Manik takes Abhimanyu home. "Surprise!" Nyonika said as she opened door for them. "Mom, how do you know that we are coming home together" Manik asked seeing her cheerful. "No, I don't know, I wasn't talking about this" she said seeing Abhimanyu with his luggage. "Is everything alright Abhi?" she asked with concern. "No mom, this boy has fallen" Manik said interrupting Abhimanyu. "Kya hua? Mujhe clearly bolo na" she asked with curiosity. "Aunty relax, kuch nahi hua hai" Abhimanyu made her sit. "Mom, Abhi has fallen in love and yeah wo marriage ki trap mein bhi jald hi fasne wala hai" Manik said. "Wow, kaun hai wo ladki?" she asked him. "Mom, I told you about my Dean's daughter Mukti, wahi hai, Abhimanyu ab humara Abhi nahi Dean ka hone wala damaad hai" Manik said.

"Kaun wo disciplined wali, chashmish doctor, tum dono tho uspe bahut jokes maarte the" she said. "Ha, maine sirf jokes maara mom, isne tho line mar liya ladki pe" Manik said. "Aunty aisa kuch nahi hai, and aap bhi kisi surprise ke baare mein bol rahi thi na?" Abhi asked her. "Oh yeah, Manik tumhara papa aane wala hai, this week" she said happily. "Really, I did miss him a lot! Abhimanyu ke shaadi pe ab dad bhi hoga, so its decided hum theeno milke Abhi ki shaadi karenge" he said. Nyonika excused herself to arrange dinner. "Manik, didn't you get something?" Abhimanyu asked. "What?" Manik said cluelessly. "Last time when uncle was here, aunty has showed you a pile of photos for marriage and now that he's returning, think what they both have in store for you!" Abhimanyu has raised a doubt in his mind.

"No, that's not happening again" Manik whispered to himself. They had dinner and discussed about the plans for Abhi's wedding. "I will talk to Panditji tomorrow, and Abhi you ask Mukti to WhatsApp her kundli to me" Nyonika said and Abhi agreed. Abhi gets a call and Manik entered kitchen when was Nyonika is cleaning the kitchen. "Mom, dad itne suddenly kyu aa raha hai?" Manik asked her. "Why? Aren't you happy hearing that he is going to come" Nyonika asked sarcastically. "Aise baat nahi hai mom, ye Abhi hai na, he is saying that you and dad will again make attempts to get me married and all, aisa kuch nahi hoga na" Manik asked to clear his doubts. "Hum aise attempts nahi karenge" Manik smiled hearing her but it didn't last long, "iss baar sirf attempts nahi hum pakka tumhare shaadi karwake rehenge" she said. "Mom, please no" he said but she didn't heed to him.

"By the way Manik, tum kisi se pyaar tho nahi kar rahe ho na?" she asked him hoping to hear Nandini's name. "Nahi tho" he shrugged off hearing her question. "Nandini se bhi nahi" she asked to confirm again. "No mom, its not like what you think, I'm not even talking to her" Manik said. "Why? Does her presence effect you that much?" Nyonika asked with a tinge. "No mom, aisa kuch nahi hai, I just wanted to be professional" he said avoiding any further questions from her. "When you're done with 'professionalism' game, then give this box to Nandini, her chachi asked for it" she gave a box to him in which she had specially imported spices. "Please Nandini ko de dena, bhulna mat" she said and he had no choice.

***********************************************************

Aryaman wanted to stop Sanju leaving to Germany with Rakesh. She goes to meet her. "Aryaman! Tum yaha?" she asked with a smile on her face. "Sanju, I need to talk to you" he asked her. "But hum abhi airport ke liye late ho raha hai Aryaman, I'll call you when I reach there" she said. "No, its important and I don't think wo sun ne ke baad tumhe airport jaana padega" he said. "What rubbish! Tum hat jao yaha se" Rakesh tried to send Aryaman away but he didn't budge. "Sanju, please listen to me" Aryaman asked her. "Aryaman, what do you think you're doing?" she is clearly upset with him. "I told you Sanju to keep these kind of guys away from you" Rakesh told to her.

"Say it now Aryaman, you have just 5 minutes" Sanju said controlling herself. "Sanju, please don't panic, ye Rakesh he is not right for you. Remember you said that he is going to Lucknow last time, when we met, you know what he was doing there!" Aryaman showed the photos he took in the hotel's lobby in Lucknow. "Look at him, Sanju he is cheating on you, please don't believe him" Aryaman said looking at Rakesh who is now sweating profusely. "What's all this nuisance Aryaman? You are making me believe that Rakesh is true about you. Rakesh is not that kind of a guy" Sanju said and Aryaman couldn't believe that she said it.

"Sanju, believe me, tumne khud wo photos dekhi thi na, see" he again tried to show the pictures to her. "Stop it Aryaman, this is my friend, ye humara Lucknow branch ki manager hai, he went there to meet her, what's wrong with you?" Sanju said crying. "Dekha! He is your friend!" Sanju is upset as Rakesh said it. She feels ashamed of Aryaman being her friend. Rakesh slaps Aryaman when he tried to talk to Sanju.

"Sanju, I Love You, please don't believe this guy, he is a cheater" Aryaman said as Rakesh called guards to throw him out.
