Despite much opposition of Daya, Abhijeet got him examined and Sunil concluded an eye infection by dust and prescribed eye-drops for Daya with complete rest.

The next day when Abhijeet came back from bureau, he found Daya working on his laptop, studying the newly updated case-file of the current case. Abhijeet went hyper.
"For how many time I had said you not to do anything except rest?" Abhijeet's anger was obvious.
Daya tried to convince him, "Look I was just..."

When Day's breath became normal, he took a sharp edged stone and carved on a tree trunk .

Abhijeet asked Daya, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a tree trunk, why?"
Daya replied with these memorable words, "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can wipe it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it on such a place where no wind can never, ever erase it."
