Vikram's POV:

Yeah, i will agree when the hell will freeze.
" Khushi, if you think I will let you go through this, then you're wrong. Very wrong." I said , speaking every word carefully.

" I never asked for your permission,Vicky. I just want to be alone to clear up my mind. It's too much to handle at the moment." Khushi replied without any hesitation.
"Bu but What about the kids?" What the hell!why I am stammering?
"Kids can be with me . I can manage them." She replied firmly.
" You are leaving me" I asked her ,managing to control the tears that are threatening to become out.
" No, Vicky. All I want is some time alone . I love you . Then how can I even think of leaving you." She assured me.
" But I can't live without you. You are the first one I see in the morning and the last before I sleep. Without you, I can't survive. I am sorry, Khushi. Thousand times sorry. I even apologize to that prick. But please don't leave me." I pleaded her.
" Vicky, you're making it difficult for me . Let me be on my own. This much of love scares me . What will you do if something untoward happens to me ? " She asked me. Is she crazy?
" I will kill myself." I said without hesitation.
"Same as I thought. This is what I am talking about. Did you even think about the kids, Virat, Vishal and Arohi? What will they do?" She asked me. I am speechless.
"They are the gifts of our love . For their sake and ours, we need to learn to live without depending too much on others. I am not saying we split just to  give space to each other once a while so that none of us will feel suffocating or regret later." She went on and on.
" Enough said. I don't like this conversation at all. It's either you coming with me or I am staying with you. No other way . " I said firmly.
Before she could reply, Virat and Vishal came in crying blaming eachother .
I used this distraction to slip away from her.

Priya's POV:

" What happened? Why are you sulking now?" Rahul asked me while placing his bag in the cupboard. He then took his night suit out from his closet . Since I didn't answer, my very caring hubby came and sat beside me on the bed.
" Priya , what happened? " he asked. This time  more gently .
" Am I a controlling person ? Did I not give any space to others. Do you think me as a control freak? " I asked him .
" No, not. You are the most kind and caring person. Who said those rubbish things about you? I will kill him" He said while trying to fake the anger.
" Khushi said that. " The moment I said it, he started laughing at me. He then said today is not April 1st and I can't fool him. With that said , he left to the bathroom.
Seeing me in the same position ," did she really said it?" He asked still not believing me.
I then narrated the entire incident. " though she didn't said it intentionally , it's totally correct and her outburst is completely justified . I mean you guys are literally hijacking her life from her. Khushi don't do that, do this , do that, Khushi this ,. It's high time, she spoke. Poor her." My husband emphasized with her.
" But I can also tell you this. She might be feeling terrible now after having said those things about the two people who she loves more than anything. So, don't worry. Just let her alone sometime. She will come to you soon ." He said with utmost care and love.
When it comes to seeking suggestions, my husband is the best. He is very practical and patient man. He listens to all my rants and offers valuable advice.

Khushi's POV:

I decided to go somewhere for a while after the long discussion with Vicky. He wasn't leaving me alone as I requested. So, here I am driving on the roads of Pune aimlessly.
My mobile has been ringing continuously for the past five hours. Getting hang of it, I decided to inform them and then switch it off.
A part of me is guilty for hurting Vicky and di. They must be very worried over me. I will apologize to di for my outburst. She's my mother more than a sister.
Vicky, he is unbelievable. The love he has for me is something unexplainable and there is nothing compared to it.
I should be happy if they just give me some space. I mean I am a grown up woman. I can take care of myself. Should i apologise or not?
I was in dilemma and didn't notice where i was doing? It's Mumbai Pune bypass road .
A national permit lorry was coming towards my way breaking the barrier , before i could react. BANG
A loud thud .
My car was thrown off the road and rolled over . It hit a concrete side wall and that's it. I saw my own blood flowing freely from my head and with that i blacked out.
The last thing I heard was " someone help. There is a lady in the car severely injured.

Niyati's POV:

I was returning back from Pune after visiting my childhood friend who is now a doctor and has her own hospital. She's a genius and was discussing babout her new discovery of temporary memory loss. While driving back home,I saw some people standing   in the opposite side of the road. Someone met with an accident.
I stopped by to look and also to help if needed.  I moved towards the car which got into accident and was shocked to find Khushi bleeding inside the car. She's unconscious . Oh my god!
" Khushi, Khushi " i started to bang the car window . She's not moving at all. This is not good. With the help of others, I managed to take her to the hospital nearby which is my friend's .
I informed Puneet and waited outside the ICU contemplating whether to inform Vikram or not.
Though I despise Vikram , i have nothing against Khushi. But she's the only weakness of Vikram. Without her, he's a goner.
My friend Dr. Vishakha came out and said that she's fine and nothing serious.
Hearing this , i heaved a sigh of relief. Suddenly a idea came to my mind. I pulled my doctor friend to her cabin and started narrating my plan.
She didn't agree with it initially but agreed as a act of gratitude towards me. I helped her a lot in the past .
Vikram, you will pay for you did to me. You will experience what it means to live without  having someone who you loves with you.

Rahul's POV:

I have been trying to call Khushi since morning but no. That adamant girl isn't picking up the call. Since noon, it was switched off. I looked into the places where Khushi normally goes but couldn't find her. Priya and Vikram are going crazy every minute . While roaming around the city, i received the call from someone saying that Khushi met with an accident and is critical , fighting for her life in vish hospital. My eyes welled up and i don't know how to tell this to Priya and Vikram.
I consoled myself that nothing bad will happen to khushi and then called them to inform . I just told them Khushi is in the hospital for some issue and asked them to join me there.
