The power went off all of sudden and by the time the lights turned on Vaishali is nowhere to be found. Shalini didn't understand what she is supposed to do. She went home and decided to call Vaidehi and warn her about Vaishali. She searched vaidehi's contact and saw her pfp. She is all smiles and a smile crept on shalini's face. The moment when she realised that her sister is in danger she underwent a emotional cross check. She realised how much she started hating Vaidehi because of jealous. When she was a kid she was extremely close to Vaidehi. Vaidehi used to behave like a second mother rather than behaving like a sister. 

Shalini's brain got polluted because of her maternal grandmother. Indrani's mother always disliked Vaidehi and often felt that her daughter indrani is being biased towards Vaidehi. She started brainwashing Shalini who is at a tender age. She got manipulated by her grandmother and she started developing jealous on Vaidehi. But she never tried to harm her. Her secret relationship with srihan is an another story.

She always felt that it is not appropriate but her feelings towards him made it hard for her to think properly. She somehow enjoy sadness on vaidehi's face but also hoped that she should get a better guy. But she was unable to bare it when Vaidehi got the best guy instead of a better guy. That made her feel jealous again. She hesitatingly dialled vaidehi's number but she cut the call immediately. She isn't sure that Vaidehi will believe her words. 

Suddenly an idea struck her mind, she called Vaishali again but she didn't get an answer. She decided to meet Vaishali at her event management company tomorrow. Her mobile pinged with a message. It is from vaishali.

Vaishali : why did you call me ? 

Shalini : Sorry ! I saw a friend of mine in cafe. I got scared. I am willing to join hands with you. 

Vaishali : done ! Meet me at the same spot tomorrow.

The month stretched on with Vikramaditya confined to his bed, his recovery marked by daily routines of physical therapy and medical check-ups. Their room, though filled with the familiar hum of equipment and the beeping of monitors, is softened by the presence of Vaidehi, who meticulously balances her demanding career with her commitment to his recovery. Vaidehi provided the medical help and also the comfort he needs to recover properly. She often used to tease him and irritate him wantedly. They unleashed the child inside them in this month. Vikramaditya also showed his secret recipe ingredients to his wife. Gayathri felt happy by seeing her son's happiness. soon Vikramaditya got freed from all wounds except the fractures that have healed to an extent. He still have the casts on his leg and hand .

Each day, Vaidehi returned from her long hours at the hospital, exhausted but determined to be there for Vikramaditya. She helps him with his meals and offered words of encouragement. Despite her professional calm, the strain of managing both her career and her husband's health took a toll. Vikramaditya dealed his business by staying at home. Vaishnav got some extra workload because of his brother's health. But he never felt burdened because of the love he has for his brother.

In the quiet moments of the evening, when Vikramaditya is asleep or engrossed in his own thoughts, Vaidehi found solace in the treasure from attic. The dusty old diary, bound in worn leather, continued to intrigue her. It offered a glimpses into the life of Vikramaditya's father, a man she never truly knew but whose actions have profoundly impacted her own life. She don't know why but she felt extremely intrigued to know more about his unusual life.
