The atmosphere of poddar house was tense , the uncomfortable silence setting among the group seated in the vast living room . Heavy curtains blocked out of dying light of day and the soft him of the air conditioning was the only sound filling the space .

Naksh and Keerti sat in stunned silence, their minds reeling from the bombshell that had just been dropped on them. The revelation that Akshara had been alive until only a year ago, and that Abhira , the girl they had never known existed ,was her daughter, was too much to process all at once. Manish also tell him how akshara died and 1 month ago he knew about her truth being akshara daughter . Guilt gnawed at Naksh’s insides, hollowing him out with every passing moment. His daughter had been alive for years, suffering alone, and he had failed to find her. He had failed to protect her, to bring her back home. And now, his grand daughter Akshara's only daughter how she lived alone . Keerti sat beside him, her eyes brimming with unshed tears. She was just as devastated, the weight of the lost years pressing heavily on her heart. She and Naksh had spent over two decades mourning Akshara, believing she had died in the chaos of the past, only to learn that they hadn’t searched hard enough. They hadn’t done enough .

Naksh ( mummered ) - keerti kaash ham thoda aur dhundh lete usse kaash 8 saal dhundhne ke baad hamne case band naa kara hota toh aaj mer...i behan ki akhri nishani hamre paas hoti .

Keerti - I wish main uss waqt naa maani hoti jab aapne aur kairav ne case baand karni ki baat kahi thi kaash....

Tears brimmed out from keerti and naksh eyes they were die with guilt for not saving akshara and protect her daughter . Roohi was equally devasted know about her maasi death but then she recall how her mother died and his new awaken love for her maasi overpower with her anger . Swarna and surekha who called by Manish to come poddar house was equally shocked . Kaveri was tensed if naksh get to know how she was treated in poddar house he would definately destroy her and their firm as she knew how special naira was for him and abhira would-be more special as she is last piece of his sister and niece . Manish wanted to console them but recall their bitterness toward him he step back . Madhav Manisha and Manoj come forward to console them . Madhav take naksh in a hug and rub his back as he was crying . Manisha take keerti in a hug and made her drink water . Keesh continuously mummered I am sorry akshi ham tujhe nahi bacha paaye .

Madhav - Naksh ji usme aapki koyi galti nahi thi . Please khud ko blame maat kijiye .

Manisha - don't feel guilty abhira akeli nahi thi ham sab the uske saath .

Naksh and keerti was console by madhav , Manisha and Manoj console them they were sitting like a statue for one and half an hour . Naksh couldn't cope with the lose of akshara and naira and now his daughter akshu also leave him alone guilt for leaving akshara with goenkas , guilt for fail to find Akshara . He saw Manish swarna and surekha and throw a glass on floor and screamed .

Naksh - meri beti ko maar kar aap teeno tre murti goenkas nakli aansun baha rahe hai stop your acting . Puri zindagi aapki wajhse dukh mila hai meri bacchi ko kisi na kisi ki maut ka ilzam uspe daal dete the aaj main yeh kehta hu meri bacchi ki death aapki wajhse huyi hai aap sab hai zimmedar . Thank God abhira kaveri ki bahu hai yaha usse pyar mila hoga agar woh aap logo ke saath rehti toh usse bhi woh sab sehna padta jo akshu ne saha hai ( to kaveri ) thank you kaveri hamri beti ka dhyan rakhne ke liye .

Kaveri smile faintly and nodded while acknowledging his gratitude and content that naksh feel poddars take care of abhira and she want naksh continue to feel that and hope abhira supporters not utter a word .

Kaveri - no problem naksh aur abhira waise bhi bahu hone se pehele meri beti hai .

Chorus gang, Manoj Manisha and madhav widen their eyes in shock that kaveri designated abhira as her daughter who didn't leave a single chance to degrade her and her mother . Manisha bow down her head and spill .
