'Love is not about finding the perfect person, but about seeing an imperfect person perfectly.'

-----

The atmosphere in the Gupta Villa was thick with tension. 

Aadarsh Gupta paced the living room, glancing repeatedly at the door as if willing it to open. He turned to his wife, Aaradhna, "Is she coming back?"

Aaradhna's expression was firm, "Yes, she's on her way. Aadarsh, you need to talk to her and make sure she agrees to this marriage proposal. Our Prachi is a wonderful girl. We can't let her marry into a family that only sees her as a servant. As for Megha... she's not even our legitimate child. It's time she goes."

The resolve was firm in Aaradhna ji's eyes.

Aadarsh ji nodded slowly,"I understand that, but Megha is also my daughter."

Aaradhna ji's voice sharpened, "And yet you'd prefer to see Prachi scrubbing floors in someone else's home rather than have Megha help out here? We raised Megha, but now that she's grown, you won't even consider her future. Marrying her into the Bhatia family is a step up for her."

Aadarsh ji sighed, the realization of the stakes sinking in.

Offending the Bhatia family would be disastrous! 

"I'll talk to her. She'll go."

Meanwhile, outside, the housekeeper announced Megha's return. Pleasantly surprised, Megha ran into the house, only to stop a moment later.

Inside, Prachi and her boyfriend were standing together in the hallway.

They were leaning close together, their lips almost touching.

It was a bad time to disturb them!

Megha stood there, rooted, forgetting to even move away.

When she finally attempted to turn around, she felt a slap on her face, which nearly sent her to the ground. As her cheek burned, Aaradhna ji grabbed her and pulled her into a room.

In a private room, Aaradhna ji confronted Megha, accusing her of attempting to seduce Rahul.

Megha, unfazed, retorted, "Maa, If I wanted to seduce him, I wouldn't be standing there watching."

"You..." Aaradhna jiwas about to explode with anger.

As Megha was about to leave, Aaradhna ji yanked her by the shoulder and sent her directly to the ground. 

"Have you not looked at yourself? We've been looking after you for so long with a God's heart. How dare you talk back to me when we saved you from dying on the streets with your crazy mother? So what if I hit you?"
