Flashback:
Dandi's phone rings and he picks it up.
O: Dandi, this is Om. I need to talk to you. Gauri left me and I need to know where she is.
D: What do you mean she left Om? I told you that she is innocent. Why are you playing games with her life?
Om tells him everything that happens.
D: Oh... so this is all a major misunderstanding. That is why she is not saying anything to me.
O: Gauri is here??
D: Yes and she is broken. She has not eaten anything and she is in depression. I do not what to do.
O: Can I ask you a favour?
D: Om, tell me what you need.
O: Can I stay in your house for a while? I need some time to talk to her and clear everything out. She will not come to my house so I will come to yours.
D: But, Om... this is a small house...
O: I will pay you rent
D: Om, money is not the problem. We both care about Gauri, it is just that this house is not the Oberoi mansion.
O: I never cared about all these luxuries. I was born with it but I was never dependent on it. Dandi, I enjoy the common life. Travelling on a train, wearing normal clothes, not the suits Shivaye wears. This is not a problem for me at all. So, I will be there in an hour or so.
D: Sure. I will set up a room for you.
O: Don't. Gauri is smart and she will think that you are helping me. Then, she will just leave and that will be a huge problem for us. Also, one more thing...
D: Yes, Om
O: Can you get her something to eat? She is very stubborn sometimes so use that to your advantage.
D: Om, she is my friend. I will take care of her.
O(Thinking): Gauri should not know the truth behind the reason why I left.
Om with all his bags packed come downstairs. Shivaye and Rudra follow him.
D: Where are you going?
S: He is leaving us.
D:What? Why?
O: I found Gauri but I know that she will never come back here. I need to go back where she is and persuade her to come back. This is the only way to apologize to her.
D: Good decision but why are you taking your bags? Visit her daily and come back home.
O: Dadi... I will not be coming back home until Gauri comes back. I want her to trust me as her friend and this is the only way.
He turns to Shivaye and Rudra.
O: I am going to lie to Gauri that you guys kicked me out of this house. Gauri should never know the truth. Please, Shivaye and Rudra, I want you to promise on our brotherly relationship.
S: For your happiness, we can temporarily make this sacrifice.
Om puts his hand out and Rudra and Shivaye makes the promise.)
R (Still holding each other's hands): But, in return, you should make a promise.
O: What, Rudra?
R: Next time you come inside this house, Chulbul Bhabhi and you should come inside holding hands.
O: For sure, Rudra. I will bring Gauri back.
Om leaves the house.
R: I do not think he understood what I meant. I meant that they should come back as husband and wife.
S: Only time can tell.
Flashback ends.
Gauri in her room:
G(Thinking): So, now that Om has decided that I am his friend, I will just be his friend. He will find someone in his life and as soon as that happens, I will slowly disappear from his so at least he can be happy.
