After dinner, Kunal and Isha left for their respective homes but Yuvika stayed back something was bothering her since she heard Neil's story, she never imagined that Neil just to take revenge would hamper his friendship with dj. Her mind was running with thousands of thoughts, her mind was constantly telling her 'that this exactly what Neil did with you , this friendship etc is just a facade' but her heart was constantly denying these possibilities.
They sorted the kitchen mess that was created while cooking, Neil noticed her restless and anxious face and decided to ask what was bothering her, "kya hua? "
Yuvika came out of her bubble of thoughts, "huh"
"Maine pucha kya hua Yuvika ,tab se dekh raha khoyi hui lagg rahi ho" he again asked.
"Kuch nahi" she said as she didn't want to confront him.
But he knew something was on her mind since he shared his past.He decided no more indirect words he'll clearly ask"Dekho kuch mann mai hai to bol dena chahiye"
"Maine kaha na kuch bhi nahi hai! " She seemed irritated.
"Okay okay! "..
For many days, their daily lunches were silent, Yuvika's usual chattering was overshadowed with her doubt on him, whenever she wanted to say something she thought what if he uses this against her. This was noticed by Neil but he didn't say anything.
One day she got tired of her own overthinking and decided to confront him. They were at their usual Chai tapri, which was generally less crowded.
"Neil, tum uss din puch rahe the na ki kya hua hai mujhe"
"Haan" he replied.
"Ek baat hai jo kayi dino se mujhe andar se kha rahi hai- " she said.
He listened carefully.
"-kaise kahu samajh nahi aa raha hai- "
"Baat ko ghumaye bina kahogi to mujhe achha lagega" he said as he knew it was her habit to say one thing and disguise it with another thing.
"Ahh haan" she pulled herself together for her question.
"Neil.. Kya tum mujhe apne revenge ke liye use kar rahe
ho?" she asked with determination in her eyes hoping to hear him say 'no'.
"Haan."
Yuvika was shocked to hear and her expression changed from belief to betrayal.
"WHY? kyu kiya aise jab tum jante ho ki tumse py-"
He was staring dead in the eye to her allegations on him without defending himself."Bolo! Matlab ab tak mere saath jo kuch hua ya maine jo kuch kiya vo sab tumhara elaborated plan tha right, mera delhi vapas aana tumhare plan mai nahi tha, par mera office join karna, mera investigation , ab jab sochti hu to av bhi tumne hi badla hoga haina"
"Ek sec, mai baki sab sunn lunga lekin av maine nahi badla tha, mai kabhi aisa kuch nahi kar sakta jisse tumhe chhot pohoche " he declared.
"Ek taraf aisa kehte ho dusri taraf haan bhi kehte ho ki maine tumhe apne revenge ke liye use kiya" she was about lose her sanity.
He rolled his eyes, "HAAN, kar raha tha tumhara istemaal, lekin tumhare maqsad ka tumhare ambitions ka, tum kabhi samajh nahi paati ki tum mai jo qualities hai vo hi 'dadababu 'kayi saalo se dhund rahe the, unhe kabhi mile nahi aur jab tum samne ho to manenge nahi unke so called parampara ki vajah se, jo chair unhe nahi mile vo kaise dekh lenge kisi aur ko uss par baith te hue, isliye hamesha se vo divide and rule karte aa rahe hai ,Prem Mahajan aur Dhanraj Mahajan ko pyade banakar, aur abb unke naye pyade hai Digvijay Mahajan aur Yuvika Mahajan. "
Yuvika somewhere agreed with him ,earlier she wouldn't have now she did but,
"Tum dadababu ko keh rahe ho ki vo hume pyade banakar koi bada game khel rahe hai- aur tum? Tum kya kar rahe ho Neil ha? tum bhi to mujhe pyada bana kar unhe harana chah rahe ho! "
Neil realized she wasn't wrong. This was the first time when he didn't have a reply to Yuvika, he silently left the place. While Yuvika sat there confused and a little disappointed.
