Soon after their dramatic confrontation, Arohi goes to another trial room to change back into her clothes. She closes the door behind her and begins to cry. Her eyes welled up with tears, her wandering and stormy thoughts give into a breakdown, "Why is it so difficult to tell him what I feel?!I did nothing wrong. He tortured me, tried to kill me and shattered me into million of piece and I have every right to yell at him for all these reasons. Then why do I feel heavy hearted and broken when I confront him?!Why does everytime I get pulled towards him like a magnet?!Ahhhh!!"

A phone call disturbed her emotions. It was a call from Raj and she wipes her tears and composed herself to pick the call, "Yes, I'll be there at the jewellery section within 5 minutes!!"
She changes back into her clothes and sets her makeup to avoid Vikram and Raj suspect that she cried earlier.

Kabir stands alone in the trial room, Arohi's words echoing in his mind. He recalls the pain in her eyes, the weight of her suffering, and the detachment in her voice.

Kabir whispers to himself, "What have I done?"

For the first time in his life, Kabir feels the sting of tears. He tries to hold them back, but they flow uncontrollably. He always tried to hide his emotions from the world and himself but today he can't even control his tears. Kabir's body shudders as he weeps, releasing the dammed emotions. He mourns the loss of Arohi's trust, their shattered bond, and his own failures.

Kabir sobs, "Arohi..."

He whispers her name, longing for forgiveness, for a chance to make things right.The tears stream down Kabir's face, washing away his pride, his ego, and his defenses. For the first time, he confronts the depth of his own flaws.

Kabir in his broken voice cries, "I'm sorry, Arohi. I'm so sorry..."

The darkness closes in, but Kabir's tears illuminate a glimmer of hope – the possibility of redemption, of change, and of rediscovering himself.
Still, tears were rolling down from his eyes and he was feeling pain in his chest. He looks into the mirror and wipes his tears, "For the first time after my parents' death, I'm shedding tears for someone. I'm feeling the same pain when I lost my parents. Arohi had became a part of my heart and without her, there isn't an existence for my living.I promise you, Arohi, I'll gain your trust and forgiveness back. You'll be mine!!"
He corrects himself and puts back his attitude face. He doesn't want anyone to find out that he had cried. He opens the door and sees Arohi walking towards the jewellery section. He follows her quietly. Arohi saw Vikram and Raj selecting jewelries for her. She gave her lehenga to a salesgirl and walks towards them.She looks at Vikram, "Vikram Bhai, can you come with me?! I need to talk something urgent to you!!"

He nods and they go towards an isolated place of the mall where no one could hear their conversation. Vikram looks at her curiously, "So what's the important thing you want to discuss so privately?!"
Arohi looks around and continues, "Kabir was saying that he saw a video of Raj and me sleeping together. Do you have that video with you?!"
Vikram shakes his head in disagreement, "No, Actually we received that video in a pendrive at our company address. When he saw that video, he destroyed both the pendrive and laptop."
Arohi bites her lips together, "Ohh.. Is there any way that you could find this video and show it to me?!I need to see that video. Why do I feel that a third person had made his entry in our lives?!"
Vikram incredulously looks at her, "So are you going to patch things with Kabir?!"
Arohi bluntly replies, "NO!!He had raised question on my loyalty and dignity. It's my responsibility to prove my innocence if someone accuses me. I'll prove that video is a fake one and that's it. Nothing more or less. He didn't even tried to check whether the video was real or fake. Instead, he tortured me that night and tried to kill me. I won't forgive him ever in my life. Can you arrange that video somehow?!"
Vikram nods his head, "Why not?!My sister had asked me something for the first time and I would do it with all my heart."
