No one knows, where she had been, and what she did but Karishma Singh has seen her upon her return by hiding behind the pillar. When she returned, her red, swollen eyes were showing just one thing she had been crying a lot.

That night, at dinner table, ammi asked, "Karishma where are everyone else?" "I send them back...." She said without thinking, her words had stopped Haseena from forcing another morsel in her mouth and she looked up at her only to see her red anger flashing face. It was enough for her to exactly picture what must have she done after her. Feeling guiltier that she had been the cause of a brother-sister's broken relation she had been trying hard to stop tears within herself only.

"What? But Why?" Mahipal asked making her realize that she need to cover up, "A.....Actually sir! We all were on leave since a week. Many cases were pending, even madam sir could not be there too so I thought it was better if DSP sir should himself go and handle everything and moreover I wanted to stay here with madam sir for a longer while...." She excused and they both nodded, "Good, now you both can enjoy some personal time together...." Her mother said and she just nodded while Haseena was stealing glances at her thinking what should she do......

In her room, Haseena called someone while her eyes were on Karishma Singh who was pacing here and there in her room getting angrier and angrier. "Hello!!" Shorya replied tiredly picking it up. "Hi, Shorya Bhai! It's me Haseena." She replied. "Oh Behna you!!! After so long.....now you realize you once call me your brother...." He complained. "Actually, you can scold me about that later....but for now I need something from you........" she asked him. "Ya, sure! Tell me what is it?? .....wait Karishma....is she alright???" he asked worriedly. "Actually! Ya I mean no.....I mean yes, she is fine more than required....right now she is doing a sort of marathon in her room and her anger is rising and rising.....Please can you come here for few days.....only you can handle her right now....." she asked him. "As far as handling her is concerned, you know you too can do that....then why you called me???" he asked again but she remained silent. "Okay, I know you won't reply to this but at least tell me what had happened there?" he asked. "DSP sir was angry on me and when he busted out at me, in front of her....I went away from there and rest you can imagine what must have happened......" she replied. "Poor Anubhav Singh......she must have badly beaten him. Okay I will be there tomorrow morning...." He replied. "No, what will happen tonight....do one thing get some necessary things, I am sending a car at your home.....it will brought you here by 12." She suggested. "Okay....fine...." he replied and hung up. "Karishma!!!" escaped his lips as he could imagine what must have she done. Just then doorbell rang. He opened it and it was Pushpa ji extremely tired and worn out. "Amma!!!" he hugged her made her sat down comfortably, give her tea. She was having tea while he was messaging her head to give her some peace.

"Haseena Behan had just called, she want me there, and she said she is sending car tonight only." He revealed. "Really, then she would have told you what had happened?" Pushpa ji asked. He nodded and said, "only, what she saw....but what Karishma had done after she went away?" He asked her mother. "Shorya!! Don't even ask!! I had seen her beating many criminals but what I saw there, it still shook me to my wits......I agree that Anubhav Singh had crossed all his lines while badmouthing Haseena but how she had beaten him....forget us even he get frightened.....It was wrong, he was her elder brother and her DSP...." Pushpa ji shared her thoughts. "I know what she did was perhaps not fully right but what he did was absolutely wrong......I had just heard behna's voice and I can feel her pain....Karishma must have seen her in that state.......you are right he was her brother and DSP......perhaps that's the reason he is at home not in hospital......She and her brother went there to lessen Haseena's pain but he had not only increased it but also lost her too......" He said extremely disappointed. "No, I don't think so....where there is love there is hope...." Pushpa ji replied. "Amma!!! What he did cannot be called love? But still if it is somewhere in his heart then it's better that he erase it because now for him, it's not just Haseena ji whom he had to win all over again but Karishma too.....and until a miracle happen, she would not let him be near Haseena....and I am saying this because I know her....i know her more than you and her brother...." He sighed heavily leaving Pushpa ji in thoughts too.

Haseena had called her house staff and ordered her to send a coffee to Karishma Singh while she herself was observing from her room. "Madam Coffee for you..." house staff presented her. "I had not asked..." She replied angrily. "But..." she was about to say. But Karishma was way too angry she threw away the cup and shouted, "I don't need anything, leave me alone..." Poor house staff ran away from there, saving her life. Haseena shaked her head though she was in pain and she was still angry on Karishma Singh but she cared for her a lot, "I need to do something until He arrived there but what???" she was thinking when suddenly an idea struck her mind. She once again called that house staff who was afraid of going to her, "Nothing would happened, just go and tell her that I am calling her....trust me..." she sent that house staff again who at once blurted out the message and ran, before she could threw something on her again. Haseena smiled at her, "Criminals are criminals, even my poor house staff was afraid of her anger too...."

She was sitting on sofa holding some files in her hand reading them when Karishma Singh knocked, "Karishma ji! Please come in." she welcomed her with a formal yet genuine smile. Of course, she know what could calm her nerves at that moment. "Madam Sir!! You have called me." she asked standing at a distance hands crossed at her back just as her S.I. "Well! You are not standing in front of your S.H.O. Relax and have a seat." She called gesturing her to sit there on sofa to which she complied and asked, "Then whom am I speaking to." Haseena looked at her and asked, "To a social service agent...." She replied taking a pause indicating her that she isn't over it yet. "Karishma ji! I want to empower females of this village with self-defence skills. So that they could protect themselves and their families." She said. "That's really good but what you need form me." She asked. "I need your help in conducting short yet effective training sessions ......only if you don't have any problem with that." Haseena asked her. "It will be my pleasure if I could still be of any help to you." She replied. "Shall we discuss the detail?" she asked and she nodded. Haseena had successfully engaged her in her self-defence training program until Shorya arrived.

"Choti Sarkar! Someone had come asking for Karishma madam." Shamila told Haseena. Haseena smiled a little and send her away. "But no one knows me here..." she replied. "I think you should go and find out." Haseena replied and she left nodding. Karishma stepped down to the Hall and found him there standing facing his back towards her. Haseena was standing at the edge of stairs far away seeing them. Karishma ran to him and hugged him from behind, "Shorya!!!" A wide smile appeared on both faces, "Karishma!!" he smiled and hugged her back. Coming out of it they were looking at each other inches apart, he kissed her forehead cheeks and was about to kiss her lips. Haseena at once turned her face away and other side Karishma stopped him, "Shorya ji! It's lounge...please." she was embarrassed and looking down. He smiled, pick her in his strong arms, "get me down, someone will see us like this..." She asked him looking here and there. Haseena get relieved seeing sudden change in her mood and she went away from there, leaving them alone. "Ahmm!!! But I am not seeing anyone here, my dear wife....now you will guide me towards your room..." he said smirking. They reached her room and he closed its door behind him. Both were shocked to see the ambience, Entrance was decorated with a heart of red rose petals some of which were spreaded all over bed, lights were off and it was beautifully lit with candles. He lied her down on the bed, "who did this???" both asked together. They looked at each other and realized. Before Karishma could ask anything else, he smashed her lips with his putting pressure on her body at all the right spots in lovely way. Haseena had successfully made it one of the most beautiful nights for her without even letting her see her pain.....

She was in her room though feeling relieved that she had lightened Karishma's mood but she failed to erase her own pain. Anubhav's words were echoing in her ears both from today's meet up and that day when he told her that he don't love her and it was all for a mission. Then her head flashed with the moment she gets to know Karishma Singh is Qayamt. Tears started streaming down her eyes as she started remembering her bond with both of them, their happy and sad moments everything. Her eyes scanned her surroundings, this haveli, her security, her Uncle and Ammi's obsession for her security, her so called luxurious life for which she was just being taunted terribly and her loneliness because of it. Her memories were flashing with countless incidents when she lost her friends and close ones because of her being a precious entity. Unlike Karishma and Shorya, she had spent rest of the night crying herself to some sleep in fully lit room as she can't afford anymore care of her parents or anyone due to her panic attacks in Dark.

Next morning Haseena introduced Karishma's husband with Mahipal Singh while both him and Haseena's ammi welcomed him warmly. At breakfast table, Haseena whispered in his ears teasingly which was also audible to Karishma Singh seated beside Shorya, "So, Shorya Bhai!!!! How was the night? Isn't it that you both slept ruining all my efforts....." "It was sizzling......" he replied to her statement causing Karishma to blush hard and she hit his elbow and he laughed lightly. Haseena too, smiled slightly looking at the couple. "Papa, I want to talk to you about something important." Haseena called Mahipal Singh. "Of course! What is it?" he asked attentively. "I want to conduct a short training program for all the females of the villagers in which I want to teach them about self-defence." Haseena asked. "Your thought is good but you know many won't allow their daughters for it." he asked. "You are right if I would give them choice they won't but what if I order them making it compulsory for every female to attend it." She said and added, "Look! Though I can do things to change their thoughts but it would take a lot of time for whole village and I don't have much.....as I am planning to take transfer to somewhere else." She asked to which he agreed but her last statement stunned Karishma. "You cannot leave us like that!!!!" she at once shouted shocked. Haseena looked at her and then replied calmly, "well, I don't think I am no longer needed there.....and moreover you and your brother DSP Anubhav Singh are wise enough to handle Lukhnow. I believe I should offer my services to some other town. I am done with Woman Police station Lukhnow and its people." There was a horrific emptiness and silence in her eyes while a fake smile plastered on her face even Shorya was shocked to see such drastic turn in her mood. Karishma was about to say something but Haseena intervened, "Karishma ji! I am getting late for school visit, it had a week's job left and perhaps that's the time i had before my next posting. I had send Ramo to announce about our training program. My driver will bring you both at the venue by 5 in the evening until then I request you to plan this training session according to the short time we have." She announced her decision with stern expressions and went away leaving behind a shocked Karishma who just ran towards her room. "Excuse me! I will just go and check on her...." Shorya went behind him. "Poor girl! She must have felt sudden shock with Haseena's decision." Her mother said to which Mahipal nodded and added, "i am feeling sorry for her, I can see how much love they both have for each other but we know no one can change her decision." "I wish her to be an exception.....since Haseena joined Woman Police station Lukhnow, I had seen return of her innocent smile and childish antics which she had lost somewhere." Her mother expressed her desire.

Other side, Karishma was sitting in room with tears in her eyes when Shorya reached her and placed his hand on her shoulder. She at once turned, hugged him and started crying bitterly. "Shorya!! You heard what she said??? I had cheated her but she is punishing herself and all those people of Lukhnow who need her. Without her our Police station-only hope of the city, will diminish and it'll be all my fault. I know I had done wrong to her but was it that big that she is ruining herself??" she asked. "Karishma! The extent of pain she is feeling is as strong as the love and hope she gained with your arrival." He replied. "I wish she had not loved me ever perhaps she won't be hurt like this...." She cursed herself. "No....no, Karishma. Now you are underestimating yourself. Despite how much angry she is from you, if there is one who can stop her then it's you. You need to have faith in yourself and your friendship. Put every effort in it and you will be able to not only save her from leaving Lukhnow but you will be able to heal her longest and painful wounds be it her childhood traumas or her heart break. Karishma singh right now you are the only hope.....you have to fasten your seat belt and take the charge of her heart and emotions in your hand. First understand her, then find out what she want, then use your instincts and provide her with what she needed the most." Shorya once again energized her with all the strength she needed and assured her that in this week he will be by her side, helping her in whatever way she needed, "we will together bring her back.." he said giving her his hand in which she gave hers and they both nodded smilingly.

Stay tuned to witness Karishma's efforts to win back her best friend.
