If on one hand Anika was jumping out of excitement, Gauri, Mallika and Om were also being happy for her. They went upto Anika and Advaay.

'Gauri!!! Mallika!!! Did you guys see that!!! He got so angry!!! I mean like... urrgghh... he was that jealous that his face had turned red!!! What's next???', she said it all in one go.

'Now what??? We'll continue this until he's forced to confess to you!', Gauri spit out.

'What??? This is so exciting!', Anika exclaimed and happily pony-jumped to her room.

'Is she always like this? I mean her mood changes within a snap of finger?', Om asked Gauri.

'Yeah, just like your brother!', she commented.

'Why are you dragging my brother into this?', Om retaliated.

'I just told the truth! Sorry if it was bitter!', saying this she snapped off and angrily walked away. Om went behind her leaving a confused Advaay and Mallika together.

'I haven't even made one couple together and I guess the other one is on its way!', Mallika thought out loud.

'Hmmm!', Advaay agreed to her.

Shivaay entered his room and straight away went into the shower. He lets the cold water run through his heated up head.

'What does that Advaay guy thinks od himself??? He went ahead and touched her!!! But why is making difference to you??? Anika is no one to you!!! Mujhe koi farak nahi padta!', he thought to himself and exited the shower. He grabbed on a few fresh clothes and called Khanna to inform Anika about her work tomorrow.

Anika was along with team Shivika at the campfire zone at the beach of the hotel when Khanna came to inform her schedule for tomorrow. Anika plainly took all the orders from him and jot it down in her book. She was a little upset as Shivaay isn't talking to her anymore. Everyone realized it and tried to cheer Anika up in their own way. Gauri and Mallika hugged her tightly but it made no difference. Advaay tried singing for her. It managed to distract her for sometime but in vain. She was still gloomy. She excused herself and rushed towards the hotel when Om stopped her halfway.

'Anika Bhabhi! Wait!', he called out. Anika froze upon hearing that word.

'What did you just called me Om?', Anika asked unable to belief her ears.

'Anika Bhabhi! Now that you're going to be my brother's wife, I should start calling you Bhabhi right?', he exclaimed. Anika got so elated to hear that from Om.

'You're so confident that we'll be able to make him say it and also about our marriage?', she asked him while both were walking towards the hotel.

'Yes, of course! The khidkithod plan made by Chutki is fool-proof Bhabhi!', Om exclaimed.

'Wah! You seem to be praising Gauri a lot!', she replied.

'Yeah! Now let that go, let's talk about you and Shivaay. Bhabhi, please don't get upset easily like this. You just stick with this plan, and trust me, in fact I can place a bet that Shivaay himself will come and talk to you!', Om encouraged her.

'Hopefully Om!', she uttered. 'You know what? Shivaay is one of the best things happened in my life. Initially I hated him really a lot but then, in these little period of time, I had no idea that in between all those arguments I actually care for him. And thank you that you guys made me realize it! Otherwise, I would have never knew it on my own and will be looking for my Prince Charming everywhere else', Anika thanked him by folding her hands.

'Bhabhi, please don't do like this. You're saying that Shivaay is the best thing that's ever happened to you right? But the truth is you're the best thing that's ever happened to him. I can't tell how much of changes you've brought in him. He's changed towards a better person because of you! He has bear a lot of pain since childhood, but now no longer. I'm very sure you'll make his life ahead very much beautiful. So for now, let's focus on our mission. And od you ever felt weak ever again, then you know that this devar is there for you!', Om said with a wink.

'Wah!!! I've beget such a khidkithod devar!!! Lucky me!', Anika uttered with a huge smile.

'And I'm also lucky to be getting such a darwazathod Bhabhi!', Om exclaimed. Both laughed and had a little hug before entering the hotel.

The next morning, there was a promotional photo shoot of Mallika and the rest of the model in the middle of the sea. Both Shivaay and Anika were there but they avoided each other. Advaay on the other side was pretending to flirt with Anika whenever possible. Shivaay's deep blue-green eyes were fixed on Anika and Advaay. Anika was yet again looking marvelous in the a new outfit. Co-incidentally or call it Team Shivika's game plan that Shivaay and Anika were yet again colour-coordinated.

Mallika was busy with the photo shoot on the other hand. She was made to pose on a few stacks of wood that were made to look like a jetty. It was attached to the ferry the were in.

After two hours long of photo shoot under the scorching sun, Shivaay finally got the perfect picture he wanted for the promotions. Everyone rejoiced and were happy at the thought that they're finally going ashore. There's a pile of work to be completed as the launch is tonight. And after the launch, there's a party afterwards in the hotel they're staying. It was going to be a long day for everyone. And our fussy Shivaay was making it even harder for everyone, especially Anika. Every time Advaay goes near her, he instructs either Khanna or Chanda to get her occupied in one work or another.

As the pack-up was completed, all were set to board the ferry to the shore. Just then, Shivaay noticed that a box was left on the wooden coaster and instructs Anika to get it. She was extremely furious, but she calmed down when she remembered what Om had said to her last night. She silently complied not before cursing Gauri, Om, Mallika and especially Advaay for coming up with such a plan. And to add to this, Advaay was beginning to become clingy towards her. Each time she finishes something, Advaay will go back to her making Shivaay fume and increase her burden.

After getting the box, Anika immediately rushed towards the ferry, but too bad, the needle of her heels got stuck in the gap between the coasters. Shivaay noticed this and was about to go to help her but he remembered what he had said to her and silently watched her from a far. Anika looked around of Advaay but he was nowhere around to be seen. Shivaay also looked for him, but in vain. It was as if Advaay had vanished into the thin air.

'Advaay is so strange! Whenever I don't need him he's there, but now when I need his help, he's no where to be seen! Let me get out of this raita first!', she thought out.

Anika struggled to free the needle of the heels from the coaster. The box was restricting her movement a little. She pulled it up with all her might, that the base of the heels snapped and Anika lost her balance. Within seconds, she fell into the sea. Shivaay who saw this panicked and rushed to her. He remembered that Anika can't swim from the waterfall incident. Without a second thought, he immediately jumped into the water.

Anika on the other hand was trying her hard to keep her from drowning. She struggled. But, in vain. She was gasping for breath and the seawater began filling her nostrils. She couldn't move her limbs anymore. The bodycon outfit she was wearing restricted her movements. She slowly drowned into the sea. Her eyes were open wide as she feels the salty seawater entering her lungs. All that she was thinking of at the moment was Shivaay. Just then, she felt a strong arms pulling her upwards. She couldn't see that whom they arms belonged to but she could feel that it's Shivaay. She wanted to stay conscious but it was hard for her. She slowly loose her consciousness. As soon as they rose up at the surface of the sea, Shivaay calls upon her name repeatedly while shaking her.

'ANIKA!!! LOOK AT ME DAMN IT!!! OPEN YOUR EYES!!! ANIKA... NO!!!', he yelled at the top of his voice.

She could hear him calling out to her but her consciousness was drifting away and she couldn't repond to him. Slowly, everything becomes dark and blank for her.
