Third Person’s POV

FLASHBACK

All the Kapoors and the Mehtas  except Kabir
were sitting in the living room of the Mehta Mansion waiting for Mr. Manish
(Dsp)…

Kabir has gone to London for business purposes…

Mr. Manish had called them and said he has a very important thing to say regarding
Kritika's case….

ANISHA : why Manish uncle has not arrived yet?? What important thing does he have to say? Has he already arrested Rishi??

PAYEL : No…I don’t think so… if Rishi had been arrested, the media would have reported it
by now…

At this moment Mr. Manish Bakshi entered the room…

Mr. KAPOOR : Hey Manish! Come…come… we are all waiting for you….

Mr. MEHTA : yes… please have a sit… and say what is the important thing you want to say
regarding the case ….we are very eager to know that…

MANISH : Mr. Mehta, I have a bad news…..

ANOTHER FLASHBACK

On the rape incident day… in the Ahuja house…

Mrs AHUJA : Mr. RAJAT AHUJA COME HERE RIGHT NOW ( Shilpa was shouting)

Mr. Ahuja came downstairs from his room….. Entering the living room he saw Rishi was
standing quietly lowering his head and his wife was looking at him very
angrily….

Mr.AHUJA : what happened?? ( asked confusingly)

Mrs. AHUJA : WHAT… Happened???YOU… you are the reason behind All of This….. You have made my son a Beast …( said these she started crying and beating Rishi on his arms)

RISHI : Aaahh… mom.

Mrs Ahuja started crying hysterically…..

Mr. AHUJA : What happened?? Can you please say clearly?? What has he done??

Mrs. AHUJA : HE RAPED KRITIKA

Mr. Ahuja was shocked to hear this…

Mrs. AHUJA : WHY? Why are you now looking shocked?? You should be very happy and satisfied… you have wanted this ,right??

Mr. AHUJA : I had said that in another circumstance… not like this way…..this idiot
…Forget about that….. Where is Kritika now?

RISHI : she is in the farmhouse…

Mrs. AHUJA : No… now maybe she is already on her way home…

RISHI : what? How? I have-

Mrs. AHUJA : I have sent Maya (the maid) and her husband there….. they will help Kritika to
go her home…..

Mr. AHUJA : what? But if she –

Mrs AHUJA : No… you both will now only listen to me… and do according to my advice….. I
know as a woman what will I do is wrong….. But I will not let my son go to
jail… I can’t let him go to jail even for one hour….. Rajat, call Mr. Aggarwal.

“Mom” “Shilpa” – Rishi and Mr. Ahuja both said at the same time in a disbelief tone…

Mrs. AHUJA : Shut up… do as I say…

SECOND FLASHBACK END

FIRST FLASHBACK Continued...

Mrs. KAPOOR : You mean Mr. Aggarwal, the political??

MANISH : Yes…

Mrs. MEHTA : His daughter??

KARAN : But She…

ANISHA : She… She is the most ill-manner girl in the town… she smokes, takes drugs,
alcohol… every night she spends in the nightclub…

Mrs. KAPOOR : it is also heard that she has a son… but no one knows about the father’s
identity…

KARAN : I think even she herself doesn’t know…

PAYEL : I also heard that She had an operation because of that she is now a  barren woman…..

ANISHA : Even Rishi also hates that girl…she has a crush on Rishi….. But Rishi used
to  ignore her whenever she came near
him…

Mrs. MEHTA : then why is shilpa marrying off Rishi with her??

MANISH : To save his son from going to jail…

The whole hall became quiet… .

ANIKET : what about the maids ?? What they said?? Did you guys –

MANISH : yes… we have talked with them… they said… aa….actually their statement is not
in favour of Kritika…

KARAN : what? Didn’t you ask why they had helped Kriti? How can their statement is not
in favour of Kritika??

MANISH : when we asked the reason behind Kritika’s condition ….They said…umm they said… (looked at Kritika)…Kritika’s condition was like that because Rishi and
Kritika….umm.. They had a wild s*x… and-

Mr. MEHTA : Ok That’s Enough… we have all seen your capabilities…we don’t need your help
anymore…

MANISH : Mr. Mehta ,there is no point in shouting at me….we have no proper proof… just based on a statement we can’t do anything….. and I am suggesting you to stop this case…
because now the politics will be involved… so this case will turn into a dirty game…… maybe some media has already gotten the news… try to suppress that as soon as possible…

Mr.MEHTA : good the media should know… we will fight… we are not afraid…

MANISH : Mr. Mehta… you have no proof….. But they have the videos of Kritika insulting Rishi
at your party and also at the Mall….if
they said anything against Kritika ….who do you think people will believe….. Listen to my advice forget this and move on…

Manish looked toward Kritika…

MANISH : I am sorry dear….. I got a notice from higher-ups… my hands are now tied… I will
not able to do anything… please forget about this and move on in your life…

Said this he left the house…..

KARAN : Kriti…

Kritika hurriedly left the room crying….

Anisha also followed behind her…

In Kritika’s room

KRITIKA : I….lo.. st… I lost…..it’s all my…fault..(sobbing)

Anisha hugged her tightly and also cried…

ANISHA : No… no

At the entrance of the door Aniket was standing with clenched fists…
