"What's happening?!"... He looks at his manager being totally perplexed..

"I have no idea Sid! I think this whole thing has just happened now.. otherwise koi toh mujhe ping karta.. kyun Khushi? Abhi hua na yeh?"... His manager looks back at Khushi..

"Yes you are right.. and the news has just gone viral within seconds!".. replies Khushi..

"Sid! Relax..! Don't react to this at all! And I would suggest you to not step out of the house unless I ask you to! I need to see the intensity of this situation!"... says his manager

"Call up Tarun (Jiya's manager), I need to know if she is okay yaar!"... Sidharth lights up a cigarette..

Sidharth calls up Saanjh..
"Sid...!! Main abhi tujhe call karne wali thi..!"

"Yaar! What the fuck has just happened?! What the fuck am I supposed to do now?!"

"Sun..abhi tu kuch nehi karega..! Pehle poori khabar toh anne de! It's very vague in social media right now!".. replies Saanjh..

"Saanjh! Kya bol rahi hai tu?! Yaar! Usne yeh step mere liye uthayi hain! How can I be so selfish?! I can't hide like a coward!! Don't you think I need to go and see her!?!"

"Nehi! Abhi nehi! Ofcourse tu jayega! Lekin abhi nehi! Rukh ja abhi Sid! I am coming to your place within an hour.."..Saanjh hangs up hurriedly..

"Sid just spoke to Tarun. Jiya did try an attempt! She gulped around 15-20 sleeping pills at one go! According to him, she was at home for the last few days and cancelled all her shoots and even a foreign trip for an outdoor. Aur kal raat she tried doing this..!"....his manager informs him about the current situation..

"Where is she now..?!"... sidharth's voice is shaking in anger and frustrations!

"They kept her in hospital for a while, as in the entire night but then to avoid media, they brought her back to home this morning!"

"Ok I will go and see her now..!"..he keeps taking puff of smoke to keep his sane..

"No Mama! Have you gone mad?! Abhi tak aap ka naam kahi bhi nehi jura hai..agar aap udhar jaoge, then it will spread like virus in no time! Uncle kuch bolo na aap inko!"...Khushi looks at his manager in the hope that he might come up with a logic to stop him..

"Nehi baccha! I can't be so selfish! I am responsible for this! I can't afford to stay back at home and behave like a fucking coward! I can't do that!"...says Sidharth, shaking his leg anxiously..

********

Saanjh arrives after an hour and Khushi opens the door for her..

"Saanjh di Nani ko kuch pata nehi hai..! Make sure you don't tell her anything..".. she whispers into Saanjh's ears..

"Okay.."

She steps into his room..

"I was waiting for you..chal!"... Sidharth holds her hand to set off for Jiya's house..

"Wait..wait Sid! Wait! It's a serious issue..abhi media ko kuch bhi pata nehi hain! Toh hum unhe kyun engagement denge?! Her manager has denied the entire incident. He said she was feeling very unwell, so got hospitalized last night! Abhi agar tu jayega then you will give them all the reasons to cook up stories! No! Sid we can't do this now!"...Saanjh holds him back and makes him sit on a couch..

"Sid! It's not your fault!! Look at me..! She did this because of her own shit! You did try, hai na?! I have seen you trying into this relationship! She never valued your efforts! Kab tak leta tu yaar!?! It was meant to be broken!! Don't take things on you yaar! Tune kuch bhi nehi kiya hai! Trust me!"....she holds his hands tightly to get him out of his guilt trip..
