Rajat turns in his sleep and does not find Purvi next to him. He immediately wakes up and sees the bathroom light on. He makes his way to the bathroom and can hear Purvi vomiting. He knocks on the door worried.

Rajat: Purvi…Purvi…tum theeekh ho? Purvi..

Purvi: Haann…she vomits again..

Rajat checks the door, its not locked from inside. He quickly opens it and finds Purvi bent over clutching her stomach in pain..

Rajat: Purvi…oh my god..ruko main paani laata hoon

Purvi sits there holding her spinning head. Rajat returns soon with a glass of water. She sips it and sits there breathing heavily. Rajat picks her and makes her lie on the bed. He touches her body and feels it is cold.

Rajat: Lagta hai tumhara BP low hua hai..ek kaam karta hoon..thoda orange juice laata hoon…Kal tum chutti le lena..hum doctor ke paas jayenge…

Purvi: Nahi Rajat…yeh sab toh normal hai…mujhe..mujhe Viraj ke time pe bhi yeh sab tha…main subah tak theekh ho jaoongi..

Rajat: Main kuch nahi jaanta..tum kal chal rahi ho doctor ke paas…bas..ab tum yahi raho main 2 min me aaya

While he is in the kitchen, Purvi gets tensed. She doesn't want him to meet the doctor yet, she is not ready. She prays to God to make her allright till next day. She closes her eyes to pray. Rajat comes back with the juice and sees that Purvi has slept already. He switches the light off and sleeps next to her.

Next morning, Purvi is up and normally carrying out her work. Rajat drops the kids to school and is surprised to see Purvi getting ready to go to work.

Rajat: Purvi..maine kaha tha naa..chutti le lo…phir kahan jaa rahi ho?

Purvi: Rajat..aap yuhi tension le rahe hai..maine kaha na yeh sab normal hai..aapko Rajvi ke waqt ka kuch yaad nahi hai kya? She says and then realizes her mistake.

Rajat: Mujhe Rajvi ke waqt ka kuch bhi pata nahi…maine kabhi yeh moments nahi dekhe…sach pucho toh aisa lag raha hai main pehli baar papa ban raha hoon…sach hi toh hai…pehli baar apne bache ke saath hoon..uski maa ke saath hoon..bas mera first time hai Purvi…main tumse…tumse bahut pyaar karta hoon..bas darta hoon…tumhe koi takleef na ho..

Purvi (in her mind): Rajat..aap kitna pyaar karte hai mujhse…aur main…mujhe nahi pata…jab Viraj meri kokh me thaa tab mujhe koi pyaar, koi dulaar nahi mila…aap..aap mera kitna khayal rakhte hai…sach me..yeh bacha bahut lucky hai..aap jaise pyaare insaan ka ansh hai yeh….

Still Purvi somehow convinces him she is allright and they both go to the bureau. Rajat has joined the bureau after 4 months of an outdoor case. He has lot of work to catch up with and remains busy the whole day. He takes some work home too and is working till late night. He needs a pen drive to copy some files and goes silently to his bedroom without disturbing Purvi. He uses light from his mobile to search in the drawers and his wardrobe, when a blue file falls out. He is about to keep it back when he sees Purvi's name with some reports.

He comes to the drawing room and checks the medical reports. These are not the ones that Purvi had shared with him. He reads them and becomes worried. He decides to consult his friend and quickly scans the reports and then keeps the file back.

The next day, Purvi is surprised to see him leave early for work.

Purvi: Aap itni jaldi jaa rahe hai?

Rajat: Haan..woh ek case ke silsile me ek jeweler se questions puchne jaana tha..tum aaj taxi leke chali jaao..main 11 baje tak aa jaoonga..okay..

He looks at Purvi and wants to say something, but doesn't say and then leaves. He is thinking hard while driving and checks his watch. He reaches the restaurant and sees that his friend is already waiting for him.

Rajat: Hi..sorry thoda late ho gaya..woh traffic..

Friend: Arre koi baat nahi..main bhi abhi aayi..kya baat hai..yahan kyun bulaya..

Rajat: Tarika…tum meri achi friend ho….aur saath hi saath ek doctor bhi..isliye main tumhe consult karna chahta hoon..mujhe sach sach batana please…

Tarika: Pucho..kya puchna hai..

Rajat: Tarika…Purvi theekh toh hai naa…mera matlab hai..uski pregnancy me koi problems toh nahi hai naa..usne tumhe kuch bataya hai?

Tarika: Rajat..sach kahoon..main khud tumse yeh baat puchne waali thi..mujhe usne kuch bataya toh nahi hai..magar naa jaane kyun mujhe lagta hai ..woh kuch chupa rahi hai….uske symptoms mujhe theekh nahi lagte…

Rajat shares the reports with her on his laptop.

Rajat: Yeh mujhe kal raat ko ek file se mili. Purvi ne mujhe yeh kabhi nahi dikhaye hai..mujhe samajh toh nahi aa raha isme kya likha hai..magar shayad kuch hai jo who mujhe nahi bata rahi hai…

Tarika goes through the reports and looks grim on her face.

Tarika: Rajat…isse poori problem toh samajh nahi aa rahi..magar itna keh sakti hoon Purvi ka womb bahut weak hai..shayad koi injury hai…mujhe thode aur reports chahiye..

Rajat: koi serious baat hai kya?

Tarika: Yeh depend karta hai..uski injury pe..aksar aise cases serious ho jaate hai..aage chalkar baby ko khatra ho sakta hai..baby se zyaada maa ko..

Rajat gets tensed hearing this.

Rajat: Tarika..mujhe bahut darr lag raha hai…tum abhi chalogi mere saath doctor ke paas…please….

Tarika: haan..theekh hai Rajat…bas Purvi ko pata nahi chalna chahiye….

Rajat calls up the doctor and makes an appointment. He and Tarika leave to meet the doctor.

Doctor: Hello Mr Kumar…I am a big fan of yours..aapse pehli baar mil rahi hoon

Rajat: Thank you Doctor..woh actually ek case ke liye main bahar gaya tha..bas 2 din pehle lauta hoon..by the way, she is Dr Tarika, my colleague..Actually doctor mujhe Purvi ke bare me kuch discuss karna hai aapse..

Doctor: I understand Mr Rajat…aapko bhi sunke shock laga hoga…magar aap dono ka yahi faisla hai toh main aur kuch nahi kar sakti..

Rajat is confused and worried. He has no idea which decision the doctor is talking about.

Tarika: doctor aap mujhe Purvi ki health status bata sakti hai…main uski friend hoon..

The doctor discusses with Tarika a lot of medical terms, Rajat has no idea what they are talking about.

Doctor: Mr Rajat..I am surprised..aapne yes kaise kaha….

Rajat: Kya..woh…actually hum dono ka yahi faisla hai..main bas aapse confirm karna chahta tha…Thank you….ab hum chalte hai..

They leave the doctor's clinic and get in Rajat's car. He immediately asks Tarika.

Rajat: Tarika..meri samajh me kuch nahi aa raha..doctor kis faisle ki baat kar rahi hai..maine aisa kuch bhi Purvi ke saath discuss nahi kiya hai..please Tarika..main bahut confused hoon..

Tarika (looking tensed): Dekho Rajat…aaram se…meri baat dhyaan se aur bahut shaant hokar sunoh..maine tumhe bataya tha Purvi ki womb me injury hai..yeh shayad uski pehli delivery ke waqt huyi hai….aur…aur…injury thodi serious hai…

Rajat's face pales with fear. He remembers Purvi narrating how difficult her first delivery was.

Tarika: In fact, ek doctor hone ke naate main khud hairaan hoon Purvi ne conceive kaise kiya? Yeh bacha sach much ek miracle hai tumhare liye Rajat..

Rajat is happy to hear that the sign of his and Purvi's true love is a miracle.

Rajat: Toh..toh problem kya hai..Tarika?

Tarika: Rajat….injury ke wajah se Purvi ka womb bache ka weight nahi sahen kar paa raha hai..aur aise haalat me bacha apna full term nahi complete kar payega shayad…aur agar complete kar bhi le..toh…

Rajat: Toh…Tarika…toh kya?

Tarika: Delivery me bahut complications hai..aur 99%...Purvi…..

Rajat's heart becomes cold.

Rajat: 99%...kya….

Tarika: 99% Purvi ki jaan jaa sakti hai..I …I am sorry Rajat…magar sach me…yeh bahut risky hai…

Rajat's eyes fill with tears. He cannot imagine a life without Purvi. At the same time, he cannot think of losing this miracle child.

Tarika: Ek aur baat Rajat….Doctor ne Purvi ko abortion suggest kiya tha…magar….Purvi ne mana kar diya yeh kehke ki tum dono ka faisla hai..iss bache ko paida karna…aur ab Purvi ka 4th month chal raha hai..iss case me ab abortion nahi kar sakte…

Rajat is stunned to hear this. Purvi had never discussed anything with him and she had all alone taken this decision. He feels his anger rising in him. He doesn't say anything to Tarika and drives away to the bureau.

He goes straight to the lab where Purvi is working with Dr Salunkhe. Without saying a word he holds Purvi's hands and takes her out of the lab.

Tarika sees this and runs behind both of them.

Purvi: Rajat..kya baat hai…kahan le jaa rahe hai mujhe…aise kya kar rahe hai aap? Rajat ..boliye..

Tarika: Rajat..ruk jaao..meri baat sunoh…dekho aaram se baat karte hai…Rajat…sunoh…

Rajat: Tarika..thank you..meri madat ke liye..lekin yeh mere aur Purvi ke beech ki baat hai…

He continues to walk ahead holding her hand. Purvi is confused and decides to go with Rajat without creating a scene.

They both get inside the car and Rajat drives away without saying a single word. Purvi has never seen Rajat so angry; in fact he has never ever shown any anger towards the kids too. She is very scared of his silence and anger.

They reach home; Rajat slams the door hard and locks it. Purvis gets scared by the minute. He breathes out, holding his hand on his forehead.

Purvi: R..Ra..jatt..

Rajat turns to look at her with a stern face and tears in his eyes..He goes to the bedroom, brings out the blue file and bangs it on the table.

Rajat: Yeh kya hai Purvi….maine puchaa yeh kya hai? He screams…

Purvi shivers at his angry voice. She knows what he is talking about. She feels guilty about lying to him. Her eyes get filled with tears but she doesn't know what to say.

Rajat comes closer and holds her shoulders. His fingers are hurting her.

Rajat: main ..main aaj doctor ke paas gaya thaa Purvi..main..main sab kuch jaan gaya hoon..tumne itna bada faisla mujhse puche bina kaise liya…he yells..

Purvi starts crying, tears getting converted to sobs. Rajat's heart melts to see her crying like this. He controls his temper and hugs her, caressing her.

Rajat: I am..I …am sorry..Purvi…mujhe aise chillana nahi chahiye tha…magar..tum bhi jaanti ho..tumne jo kiya..woh theekh nahi kiya…mujhse ek baar toh baat karti..mujhpe itna vishwaas nahi hai kya…. yeh bacha jitna tumhara hai…utna mera bhi hai …mera bhi haq hai ispe Purvi…phir kyun….Purvi..mujhe aaj jawaab chahiye…

Purvi sobs some more..

Purvi: Raj..att…mujhe…mujhe please maaf …kar..kar dijiye…maine aapko nahi bataya pehle….jab mujhe pata chala main maa banne waali hoon…main kitni khush thi..main jaanti hoon mujhse zyaada aapko yeh bacha chahiye thaa..yaad hai..aap kehte the…mujhe meri Purvi jaisi ek aur ladki chahiye…

Rajat remembers that conversation with her.

Purvi:Mujhe doctor ne yeh bhi bataya ki yeh bacha ek miracle hai..shayad me dobara kabhi maa na ban sakoon…main kya karti Rajat…mujhe ..mujhe pata tha..aapse yeh sab kahoongi..aap mujhe usi time abortion karne kahenge…main apne bache ko kaise maarti..woh bhi aapki nishaani Rajat…jisse main bahut pyaar karti hoon..

Rajat: Lekin Purvi..ek baar toh mujhse kehti…aaj tumne yeh kya kar diya..meri samajh me nahi aa raha..bache ki aane ki khushi manaoo yaa…tumhare…

He cannot complete the sentence for fear of it coming true.

Purvi holds his face with her two hands.

Purvi: kuch nahi hoga..hamare bache ko…main mar jaoongi..lekin iss bache ko aapko dekar rahoongi Rajat..yeh mera waada hai…

Purvi sees Rajat getting angry again.

Rajat: Kitni aasaani se keh diya..mar jaoongi..tumhe kya lagta hai..tum mar jaoogi aur main zinda rahoonga? Isliye tumse pyaar kiya maine…Rajvi aur Viraj ka kya hoga? Socha tumne? he yells again…tumne hum sabki zindagi daav pe laga di Purvi..yeh acha nahi kiya tumne..main tumhe kabhi maaf nahi karoonga..

Saying this he walks out of the house, leaving a crying Purvi behind. The kids come back from school to see a crying Purvi. She quickly wipes her tears and acts normal in front of them.

It's late at night and Rajat has not yet come home. His phone is switched off too. He is working late at the bureau avoiding to go home. Abhijit pats his shoulder.

Abhijit: Rajat..ghar nahi jaana ? kab tak kaam karoge..

Rajat: Bas..thodi der aur…aap jayiye sir..

Abhijit: Mujhe Tarika ne sab bataya aaj jo hua..tum usi baat ko lekar pareshaan ho naa..

Rajat: Main kyun pareshan houu sir…meri koi parwaah nahi hai…mera koi haq nahi hai..apne hi bache pe…

Abhijit: Rajat…dekho main mantaa hoon Purvi ne theekh nahi kiya…magar…yeh tumne kabhi socha usne aisa kyun kiya? Who tumse bahut pyaar karti hai Rajat…tumhe har haal me khush dekhna chahti hai…yeh bacha..maano ek tohfaa hai tumhare liye uske taraf se…

Rajat: Sir..main jaanta hoon who mujhse pyaar karti..bahut pyaar karti hai..main bhi usse utna hi pyaar karta hoon…ek baar mujhse kehti..hum milkar faisla karte..main uske liye zameen aasmaan ek kar deta..mere liye Purvi se badhkar kuch nahi hai….hamara bacha bhi nahi ! Aap nahi jaante main kis kashmakash me hoon..ek taraf doctor ne kaha hai..bacha shayad poora term na kar paaye – main bache ko kho doonga…doosri taraf agar term poora ho gaya..main Purvi ko kho doonga..main kiski jaan ki dua maangoo sir..Main kya karoon Sir..meri kuch samajh nahi aa raha…

Abhijit doesn't understand how to clear this problem. Rajat is faced with a tough dilemma!

Purvi is worried sick that Rajat hasn't returned home and his phone is switched off. He is not picking the bureau phone too. She has no idea about his whereabouts. Its too late at night to disturb any friends. She constantly checks the watch, clutching her stomach which has started paining again. She checks the kids, they are asleep. Her pain is increasing by the minute, she is finding difficult to control. Tears spring in her eyes.

Purvi feels something is squeezing her stomach from inside, she feels wet. She touches and is horrified to see blood pouring out fast. She tries to get up but the pain increases and a vase falls down. Viraj wakes up with the sound and comes out of his room to see a struggling Purvi lying on the floor. He panics seeing so much blood and a half conscious Purvi..

Viraj: Mamma…Mamma…kya hua…mamaaa….

Purvi: Papaa…ko…phone…..jaldi…aaaaaahhhhh….

Viraj quickly dials Rajat's number, its switched off..

Viraj: mamma..papa ka phone bandh hai..mamaaaa…

Purvi (clenching her teeth): Abhi..jit..…aaaaahhhhhhhhh..she gets a very painful squeeze in her stomach…

Abhijit is leaving the bureau when his phone rings.

Viraj: hello..uncle..uncle main Viraj..aap please…papa ko lekar jaldi aaayiye…mamma…ko kuch ho gaya hai..

Abhijit: Kya..kya ho gaya hai..tum mammma ko phone do…

Abhijit can hear Purvi screaming in the background…

Viraj: Uncle..please..jaldi aayiye..he is crying now…..mamma ko kuch ho gaya hai….

Abhijit: Ghabrao mat..hum..hum..abhi aate hai..Rajattttt! he yells and runs inside the bureau…

Oh no...Purvi in danger..Will she get saved on time? Will this cause distance in their relationship?...
