After sameer left, kartik deicded to follow his advice ans not to give up so easily. He decided to try once. He called back Naira and naira picked up his call on first ring.
Naira: hii

Kartik ended the call before she could deny. She sighed and at last agreed to join them.
IN ADITI'S FLAT
Aditi was in kitchen when naira got kartik call. When aditi asked her what happened naira explained her the matter.
Aditi: tao tujhe kya problem hai jaane mei
Naira: yaar mujhe nhi acha lagta. Woh log mere jaise bilkul nhi hai and I feel outsider there.
Aditi: vaha rishabh bhi tao hoga you are comfortable with him right
Naira: haa hu lekin
Aditi: shut up naira thoda bohat tao compromise ab karna hi padega na. Itni bhi badi baar nhi hai
Naira at last was convinced by aditi. She agreed to visit them once again.
IN EVENING
Kartik spent the whole day in office daydreaming about Naira while naira spent the day with aditi talking and stressing herself about her life.
The plan got changed a bit as now the goenkas siblings were visiting the sighanias. This idea was given by kartik the great as he knew naira is still uncomfortable and feels to be outider around them. He himself didn't know how he came to know about this and why he was so concerned about her comfort.
IN SINGHANIA SADAN
Everyone was having their evening tea in hall when Goenka siblings came. They settled themselves on the sofas while two pairs of eyes were searching for naira. Rishabh and Kartik were unable to spot naira among them. Singhanias were having high hopes on rishabh. Kartik was about to ask about Naira when rishabh asked the same question.
Kartik: woh
Rishabh(cutting him): naira kahan hai dikh nhi rhi.
Akshara: woh subhe se aditi k pass se hi nhi aayi
Rishabh: oh
Mishti: naira didi aa gyi
Naira came inside while rishabh hugged her. Kartik did feel bad seeing but brushed off the feelings. Mishti noticed his change of expressions and had some doubts.
Rishabh: hello madam kahan ghum rhi hai aap
Naira: woh aditi k pass gyi thi
Rishabh: ghar par bhi reh liya karo
Naira: hmm
Naira was not at all interested to have any converaation as she really disturbed thinking for her future. Rishabh noticed it from her expressions as he knew everything about her. He left her while naira excused herself to freshen up.
IN NAKSH'S ROOM
Everyone from youngesters were in his room as they were planning about keesh engagement. They were basically arguing about over their preferences.
Naksh: meri engagement ha mai decide karunga.
Keerti: excuse me naksh meri aur mai ko humari aur hum se replace kariye
Shubham: exactly aap logo ki engagement tao aap aram kijiye apne aap ko pamper kijiye hum dekh lenge kya karna kya nhi.
They were arguing when akshara came to them and stopped them.
Akshara: arrey chup karo bacho kya hua
Naksh: mumma meri engagement hai
Keerti: naksh
Naksh: sorry I mean humari engagement pe yeh sab aapni manmarzi chala rahe hai
Shubham: hum isliye kar rahe hai because yeh dono apas mei kuch decide nhi kar laa rahe.
Akshara: acha theek hai aap log rehndo aur naksh keerti tum dono apas mei kaam baat lo phir share karlena apne ideas. Then you people can decide what you want. Baki hum dekh lenge.
Naksh: lekin hum divide kaise kare
Naira: aap venue ki decoration delh lo aur keerti di aap dress code. Phir apne ideas ek dusre se share karlena. Agar acha lage then go for it. Aur aap ko jo bhi karavana hai aap hum sab ko bol dena we guys will arrange it as shubham said ki aapki engagement isliye aapko sirf enjoy karna chahiye.
Keerti: wow naira we can actually go for this. Isse humari sari problem solve ho gyi. Thank you so much.
Naksh: seriously naira thanks
Naira: aap enhe thanks kahiye onhone hi idea diya tha(pointing towards akshara).
Naksh: actually we should thank you both together. Agar mumma idea nhi deti toh tum nhi sochti aur agad tum nhi deti maine aur keerti phir jhagdha karne lag jate.
Saying this he hugged both naira and akshara together. Akshara too wrapped her arms around naksh and naira while naira hesistated a bit. But at last she too reciprocated it. This action of naira made akshara a bit emotional. She made an excuse and went while naksh was happy. Kartik too smiled at her actions and was grateful that she was trying to accept her present.
Everyone else get back to their work while naira went towards her room to grab her phone while rishabh and kartik followed her. Mishti being a detective saw this and went behind them.
IN NAIRA'S ROOM
Naira was checking her phone when rishabh came. He knocked on the door and naira asked him to come inside.
Naira: aao na plz
Rishabh: naira woh mujhe tumse baat karni thi
Naira: bolo
Rishabh: tum disturbed lag rhi ho kya baat hai
Naira: kuch nhi hai
Rishabh: mai tumhe bachpan se janta hu naira trust me you can share it with me
Naira: rishabh aisa kuch nhi hai aur agar koi baat hogi tumhe baatane layak I will surely tell you
Rishabh(taking her hands in his): fine lekin ek baat jarur yaad rakhna I will be always there for you tum agar kisi bhi problem mei ho ya kuch bhi you can share it with me I will always there for you to support you. To protect you. Uncle aur aunty ki jagah tao mai nhi le sakta but still being a friend I will be there.
Naira(hugging him): thank you so much.
Naira being emotional when he mentioned about her parents hugged him while he too reciprocated it. Kartik got some call and failed to listen their conversation but could only see them hugging each other. He being hurt left the place while mishti heard their conversation as well as saw kartik's expressions.
IN BACKYARD
Kartik came to backyard after seeing them hugging each other. He was really hurt seeing them together. He decided to not to hurt himself more and put a full stop to his feeling for naira.
Kartik's POV
Nhi aur nhi hurt kar sakta mai khudko. Naa hi on dono k beech anaa chahta hu woh kitne khush hai ek dusre k saath. Mai apni feeling ko ab aur badane nhi de sakta. I think I should maintain a distance with her.
He was lost when Naira came and brought him out from his own world.
Naira: hey tum yaha ho mai tumhe pure ghar mei dhundh rhi thi
Kartik: hmm ek call thi
Naira: ohk well can we talk
Kartik: actually hum baad mei baat kare abhi mera mood nhi hai
Naira: kartik plz mai subhe se tumhara wait kar rhi thi. Actually I wanted to ask
Kartik(irritated): naira plz mai abhi disturbed hu. Subhe se kaam kar raha tha aur ab tum yeh sab lekar baith gyi ho.
Naira: yeah sure I am sorry agar maine bhi pareshaan kiya ho. Actually woh
Kartik: well can you plz leave me alone.
Naira: yeah I am sorry
Naira was really hurt with his harsh behaviour. She didn't show but it actually hurt her very badly. Naira left from there as everyone else was in hall. Kartik felt guilty but assured himself that he is right. Mishti was still following them. She now got to know what was actually going on.
IN HALL
Naksh and keerti were distributing the work among others. Then mishti got an idea and suggested that kartik and naira should look after the venue decoration toether according to Naksh's plan. Everyone agreed but kartik and Naira were not comfortable but agreed to help for others happiness.
