"Thank God you're here" Ethan said as Ishan sat next to him on a bench in the garden. "Bandana told me what's been happening lately" Ishan said. "Manjot is a piece of shit" Ethan said, "well I know that" Ishan said in a low voice. "I'm glad you and your sister don't share the same thoughts about him" Ethan said. "See, that's exactly what Manjot was planning. He made it happen. A fight between you and Bandana" Ishan made his point. Ethan sighed, "why is he doing all this!? He wanted to marry Sameeksha, where did Bandana come from!?" He asked. 

"I have a strong feeling that Priya and Manjot are planning something together. Ho sakta hai in dono ka plan Sameeksha aur Grayson ka divorce karana ho. Ese Priya ko Grayson mil jaega aur Manjot ko Sameeksha. Aur tum dono ke beech ke jhagde ki wajah se tum obviously Sameeksha aur Grayson ki help nhi kar paa rahe, jisse Priya aur Manjot ka kaam actually easy ho raha hai" Ishan explained. Ethan took a deep breath, "just help us out man. I believe only you can do it, you're the most sensible one" He said, "don't worry, everything will be normal again" Ishan said patting on Ethan's shoulder. 

Bandana was sitting in her room, Ethan came and sat next to her. "I'm sorry" He said in a low voice. She stood up to leave, "sit" He said holding her wrist. "Kucch baaki hai? I think sab kitchen me clear ho gaya tha" She said with a heavy voice. "Look, I'm sorry for what I said. I should have understood that Manjot is still not completely fine, he still needs your help" He said, "I'm just possessive..." He said looking down and holding her hand. "E, being possessive is fine. Being over possessive is gonna break us apart" She explained. He nodded and a tear left his eye to fall on Bandana's hand. 

"E don't cry please" She said and broke down, "I don't want to loose you but I feel that he's gonna take you away from me" He said crying even more. "E" She whispered and hugged him tightly. "I'm sorry" He sobbed hiding his face in her neck.

Grayson gave Sameeksha an envelope. She looked at him, expecting him to explain what was in the envelope. "Open it" He said, she took the envelope and then saw Priya coming. She opened the envelope and read the letter in it. Her heart started racing, tears started flowing from her eyes. She wiped the tears, "pen" She said to him. He gave her a pen and she signed the divorce papers. "Thank you" Grayson said, she smiled and left. 

Grayson gave the paper to Priya and smiled, "thank you baby" she hugged him. A tear rolled down his eye, he wiped it away and hugged her back. "There will be no one between us now, are you happy Priya?" He asked, "of course I am" She said breaking the hug. "I need to finish the last part of my project, I'll be out of town and I'll come tomorrow morning" He said. "What? When did you plan this?" She asked, "actually I just got the confirmation email from Delhi University, that's where I have to do my work" He said, "it's alright" She said with a weak smile.

Ishan was getting ready to go somewhere, "bhai kahi jaa rahe ho?" Manjot asked. Ishan nodded, "me, Ethan aur Bandana bahar dinner karne jaa rahe hai" He said, "Sameeksha nhi jaa rhi?" Manjot asked. "Usko kucch kaam hai to woh nhi aaegi" Ishan explained. Manjot nodded slightly and went to his room. It was 9pm, Ethan, Ishan and Bandana left. 

Sameeksha decided to start and texted Manjot to come to her room. "Sameeskha? Itna andhera kyu hai room me?" Manjot asked as he entered in Sameeksha's room. He tried to switch on the light but someone held his hand. "K...kon hai?" He asked, "me hu Manjot" He heard Sameeksha's voice. "Arey par itna andhera kyu hai yaha? Aur tumne mujhe yaha kyu bulaya?" He asked. 

"Pata hai Manjot, Grayson ne mujhe divorce de dia" She told him, "Priya ke wapas aate hi woh badal gaya, akela kar dia mujhe" She said and hugged him. "Me pehle se jaanta tha ke woh yahi karega. Issi lie tumhe use door rakh raha tha" He said, "Sorry Manjot. Mujhe nhi rehna Grayson ke saath. Me bas tumhare saath rehna chahti hu ab" She said.

On the other hand Priya received a call from Grayson, "Hey Priya, I'm coming back. The appointment got cancelled for some reason. Make sure dinner's ready please" He said, "sure, I'll be waiting for you" She said with a smile.
