Before Rishab could thank Ranveer comes there

1 person: sir hum dono jab raste ja rahe the tab humne dekha koi acchank gadi ke samne aaya humne gadi roka toh yeah madam se puchne yeah aachanak samne kyu aayi but shayad dar ki wajah se woh gir gyi but sir jab woh gadi ke samne thi aur giri thi unhe koi chot nhi lagi thi jaise main unke pass gya aur uthya unki body peh scratch ke nishan aa gye and sar se khoon niklene laga (slowly only)

Rishab:(comes there) thanks pratha ko yaha lane ke liye aur tension mat lijiye hum koi case nhi karenge par agar aapki jarurt padi toh pls co-operate kareyga
Both the people were leaving when Ranveer calls them
Ranveer: kya tum dono ne kuch ajjeb dekha ya notice kiya tha kya
2 person: no sir
1 person: wait...ha sir ma'am bar bar piche dekh rahi thi aur jab ma'am ko hum car main baitha rahe the tab maine jhadiyon ke hilne ki aawaj suni thi
Ranveer starts thinking.
Ranveer looks at his hand which stopped paining and bleeding.
Suddenly doctor comes
Rishab: doctor Pratha
Doctor: woh theek hai actually it's shocking but unka khoon bleed karna apne aap band ho gya but ya jab humne check kiya toh dekha it's a virus given to her but luckily uska antitode present tha and so she's fine you can meet her
Rishab: thanks doctor
He goes inside and sees pratha awake.
All family members were standing outside there was  big glass window and everyone were looking through that
Rishab: thank god tum theek ho Pratha
Pratha just smiles little.
Rishab: tum kaha chale gyi thi
Pratha:(looks towards glass window all were seeing her) pata nhii kaise

Ranveer enters: Rishab...
Rishab turns.
Ranveer: tujhe hua kya hai woh abhi theek hui hai let her rest
Rishab: yes bhai
Ranveer: pratha kaise ho(while sitting next her)
Pratha: theek hoon
Ranveer: pata hai pratha subah wali chai miss ho gyi aaj
Pratha makes confused face
Ranveer: tumhari chai mix kar di na
Pratha smiles and then her eyes goes to his hand.
Pratha: hand pain kam ho gya na aapka
Ranveer looks at Rishab
Ranveer: kaise wife haina teri khud hospital bed peh hai aur hand pain ka puch rahi hai (he chuckles)
