~Want to live in your eyes and die in your arms~

'What happened to her? How she died?' Ishita asked Tara looking at Shanaya's photo. 'While saving me, she died,' Tara replied and tears dripped out of her eyes. 'Saving you from what?' she asked. 'Saving me from Maya mausi,' Tara said and palmed her mouth crying badly. 'Calm down and tell me what really happened?' Ishita asked holding her shoulders and she looked at her cryingly. 'You remember? You remember everything right? You're my Shanaya di right? That's why you're just like her. When that monsters were torturing me, you came to save me. When that jailor threw water on me, you closed my nose and now you're concerned just like you used to be,' Tara said wiping her tears smiling at her and hugged her.

Ishita was shocked by the sudden change in her behavior and how she hugged her and smiled at her. She looked down at Tara who had her head buried in her and felt comfort in her arms just like a child seeking warmth of its mother. She kept her arm on her back and hand on her head hugging her by one arm. 'I know you're my Shanaya di,' Tara said hugging her tighter.

'Lo re lo, vo log jo ab tak larr rahay thay, un mein achanak humdardi agayi, wah re wah, kya jaadu kiya hai ek doosray par?' (The people who were fighting till now, suddenly they got sympathy between them? What magic have they done on each other?) said the monstrous lady who always tortured Tara. She broke the hug and stood up along with Ishita. 'Real relationship doesn't need magic,' Tara said enraged and the lady came to Ishita. 'How do you tolerate this psychic girl?' she asked. 'Psychic my foot, you all are psychic and not her,' Ishita said.

The lady held her hair and laughed. Tara slapped her hard and the lady grabbed her neck. 'I am Kaali, and don't you dare to slap me,' she said and Tara laughed pushing her away. 'Did you hear what she said? She's Kaali, means she's black,' she said to Ishita while laughing but she was so confused to laugh with her. 'Arey I mean, when did I say you're snow white? Don't praise yourself,' she said and Ishita too laughed. Sorry Aarohi, if you see me laughing with her, you'll take me wrong, but I m doing all this for you, Ishita said in heart.

'Aarohi, I have loved you only. Please don't go leaving me again, nothing will happen to you again, Deep won't let anything happen to his Aarohi,' Deep said holding her close and she moved back. 'Yeah right, that day Maya tried to burn me alive, but you remained quiet, why?' she asked angrily.

Flashback:
Maya: (holding Aarohi's hair tightly) woh chip kahan hai jis mein tumne humari baatein record ki hai? Bata do nahi to asli saas ki tarha jala doongi.

(Where's that chip in which you recorded our chat? Tell else I will burn you like real mother in law)

Aarohi remained quiet as that chip was the proof of her innocence. Deep looked on.

Maya: (tightening her grip) batao!

Aarohi: main aapko kabhi nahi bataungi. (I won't ever tell you)
