Sometimes wounds bring out the best in a person. It happened to Arjun as he was still writing in the morning, despite of being awake and exhausted all night. Something had come up in his mind and he couldn't stop. Everyone crossed his mind but they didn't bother him at all. Soon there was a knock on the door. He was lost deep in his mind. The knocks continued and the door opened because it wasn't locked. Karan, Dev, Disha and Dia had come to visit Arjun who was staying at Karan's home. They were shocked to see five mugs of coffee scattered around the table but there wasn't any food. Arjun's eyes and hands continued working and working. He needed a break but he wasn't having it anytime soon. Dia took the mugs straight away to the kitchen and saw there wasn't any trace of food in there. She washed all the mugs and wondered if Arjun had ate anything. Dia walked back to the living room and sat with them. Nobody spoke but kept looking at him writing. They witnessed how talented he was. The speed of his hands moving, defined what he was capable of. A bunch of papers where on the table. It would add up to around fifty and more were on its way to increase the pile. Arjun's breathing increased. It was turning heavy. They noticed it and wanted him to stop. "Arjun, that's enough", said Karan but it seemed as though Arjun was deaf. "Arjun yaar, don't force yourself, please", said Dev trying to stop him. "Jiju..." Disha didn't know what to do. Then finally Arjun's cousin sister Dia went and sat beside him on the couch and kept her hand on his shoulder calling his name. The pace of his hands decreased gradually. The pen fell down from his hand and Arjun passed out in no time. "Arjun" everyone was startled. Dia managed to get hold of him. Karan and Dev held Arjun in their arms and laid him in the bedroom. "Dia get some water" said Karan. She immediately went to the kitchen and came back with a glass of water. Karan sprinkled some on his face and tapped him twice. Arjun woke up. They helped him sit upright. Arjun felt as though he didn't know what was happening around him for a moment. He touched his head. He had severe headache.
"When was the last time you ate something?" asked Dev. "I don't remember" came the reply from Arjun. That pissed everyone off including Disha who was at the bedroom door. Then Arjun saw Dia standing with them. "Dia are you alright?" "I'm fine Arjun but you are not. What have you been up to? If we weren't here now, imagine what would have happened to you". She was upset just like the others. "Dia, lets make some food for jiju" said Disha. That's when Arjun noticed her. He got down from the bed and walked to her, kneeling before her. He held her hand and looked at her with a smile. "Disha dear, how are you?" "I'm okay jiju. Just worried about you. What have you done to yourself? We're all going to stay together now", she replied. "Well, I think that's better for my health. When I was home, Ma took care of me but when I became alone, I realized it wouldn't go on for long. Sorry jaan, I was a bit stressed out". Arjun swayed his hand through Disha's hair, got up and turned around looking at the other three who were behind him. "I didn't eat or sleep. Don't know what was going through my mind, I just wanted to keep writing and I'm almost done with my story. Maybe five more chapters to go I guess". Arjun smiled but the others didn't seem to be convinced. "Disha, lets go and cook some lunch" said Dia and walked to the kitchen taking Disha along. Now it was just the men. "One tight slap and everything will be alright" said Karan. "No bhaiyya, sorry. It won't happen again". Arjun held his ears. "Arjun this isn't right" said Karan and went to the living room. "Bhai, lets go" said Dev. "You don't wanna shout or say anything?" asked Arjun surprised. "Whatever Karan bhaiyya said is all I have to say. Chalo", Dev put his arm around Arjun and took him to the other room. They sat there talking and waiting for lunch while the two women prepared it for all of them.
Meanwhile at Arjun's home, Kiara was fidgeting with the spoon through the food. She missed Arjun so much but couldn't do anything about it. Shanti was there with her. "Beti, unless you meet all of them to sort things out, nothing will be okay. You know Arjun, there are some things which you need to do to have him around. Listen to him or else he won't come home. I spoke to him on your behalf. That's why I'm telling you this. Call someone and tell you wanna see everyone". Kiara was crying. "I know its all my fault but how am I supposed to do it Ma. I feel bad about myself. The things that I said about Disha and Arjun hurts me more". "I understand. This is the problem. We don't realize things when we do or say things unless it hurts us back. After lunch, call your brother. He maybe upset with you but I'm sure he will talk to you, okay". Kiara nodded her head. "Come on now, eat your food". "I'm not hungry Ma". "Kiara, married life is never easy. Now don't be a child, eat your food". Kiara took a little bite of the food. Deep inside she was sad and thinking about her husband, wishing he was right beside her now.
It was night. They were all staying at Karan's house. Dinner was done, everyone was just talking about their old stories and lives. That was when Karan's phone rang. He took it and saw Kiara's name pop up on the screen. "Its Kiara", he said looking at everyone. Karan attended the call by putting it on speaker, gesturing everyone to be silent. "Hello bhaiyya" "Hello" "How are you?" "Okay". "I know you're upset but please talk to me". "What do you want Kiara?" There was a pause for a moment and she continued "bhaiyya, did you talk to Arjun?" "You're asking me? He's your husband. Call him to know". "I want to but you know what happened. I'm sorry bhaiyya. Please tell me about Arjun. I miss him and I feel bad that I hurt all of you". "Being sorry doesn't fix anything". "I wanna meet all of you. Can you tell them? Even Kunal and Kabir bhaiyya. Please, I can't let this go on. I want all of you. It feels as though I've lost everyone even though I have all of you". She began crying. "Stop crying, you should have thought about it before doing what ever you did. Bye". Karan ended the call now everyone knew the only thing to be done was a reunion because there was another important thing, Kunal and Disha's wedding, which had to be official! But as far as Kabir was concerned, none knew how he would react to an apology.
