Both Raghu and Antara came out of the Dargah , wholeheartedly making their mannat.. The best part was that they didn't even know that God favored their oneness too.. "Tumhe sach mein kafi badlaw aa gaya hain raghu. Mere sangat ke asar par raha hain tumpe!"said Antara with a smile. Raghu let out a crocked smile, "Kya karoon miss kaul. Akhir tu doctor ki beti hain teri treatment to asardaar hogi hi naa.."said Raghu. "Teri batein karna koi tumse sikhe.. yehi cheez kabhi nahin badalta tumhara" Antara said. "Arey yaar. Pura badal jayega too tere koo woo pahechan ne mein galti hogi naa.. kuch too purana chawal rahena chahoiye naa khane mein.. swad barta hain!!" he teased. Antara smiled at the new Raghu. They both walked on the premises of dargah.
Little did these two know that there were eyes on them.."Ab kya karna hain.. Kab se in do premi ke peeche pada hoon...?"said a man on the other line.. He was none other than Rehan. Aman's brother.. "Raghu ki ab sabse badi kamzori Antara hain... Uski jaan uss ladki mein basi huyi hain. Maar daal uss ladki ko.. Woh bachni nahi chahiye.. Par ise murder mat lagne dena.. Uski maut ek accident lagni chahiye"said the man on the other line.. Rehan kept the phone and smiled wickedly..."
Suddenly Raghu's phone rang. "Eee machmach... bol... abey.. yee awaz kyun nahin aa rahi hain!!" raghu said in irritation and jerked the phone set. "Yahan pe network kaa problem hain.. tum wahan jaa kee baat kar loo... main abhi atti hoon." Antara said. "Ee ruk kidhar jaa rahi hain." raghu stopped her immediately holding her hand. "Arey wahan uss per ke pass.. wahan joo peer baba baithe huye hain naa unhe daan de na hain.. tum baat kar loo.. main ati hoon.." Antara said. "Arey tu ruk baad mein sath sath chalte hain!!" Raghu said. "Raghu bas do kadam ke hi doori par hum..tum easily mujhe dekh sakte hoo wahan..kabhi too bharosa kar loo.." Antara said making a poor face. "Acha thik hain samhalke" Raghu said. Antara moved near the place. Keeping his eyes on her Raghu called machmach. "Hello Bhai .. Kaisa hain tu?? "said Machmach .. "Apun theek hain.. Par tu itna ghabrayava kyun hain..?"said Raghu. "Bhai tazi tazi khabar mili hain ki Satya, Dayamayi aur uske aadmi tum dono ko paaglon jaise dhoond rahe hain.. Darr hain ki tum log ko vo dhoond na le.."said Machmach. "Chinta mat kar...Apun sahi salaamat rahega..Aur Miss Kaul ko bhi kuch hone nahi dega.."said Raghu his eyes didn't move from antara just for a single second. Suddenly a group of people passed between them covering her from his eyes. At that little instant the incident occurred. Antara felt a hand came from the crowd and covered Antara's mouth and had dragged her with him. the thing happened so quickly that antara couldn't even scream.
As the crowd moved to raghu's shock, antara wasn't there.. Miss Kaul .. "ANTARAAA ..!!!"Raghu screamed.
On the other hand, Antara was captured by nine other than but Rehan. He dragged antara all over the place and came to the an isolated building. Antara wiggled allover in his hold unable to free himself. Rehan moved to the third floor of the building and threw her inside an empty room. Antara banged on the wall and looked towards rehan with wide eyes. "Kaun ho tum?? Chodo mujhe"Antara screamed.. "Eee ladki... Dekha jaye to teri galti nahi hain.. Par woo Raghu tujhse pyar karta hain na.. toh isliye tujhe maarkar usko barbaad kardoonga"said Rehan. Antara's eyes widened out of fear. "Kya?? Please mujhe jaane do.. "Antara cried... Rehan dragged Antara towards the balcony with an aim to push her down.. Antara tried her best to resist him and was constantly pleading him to leave her.. While resisting him, Antara found herself going near to the wall .. Rehangot furious at her resistive behaviour and pushed her to the wall. The wall had a nail not completely inserted inside it and he pushed Antara to the nail. The nail hit Antara badly and nearly killed her... "RAGHU !!!"Antara screamed out of pain.."Tumhe Raghu nahi chodega"whispered Antara.. Rehangot furious at this.. He pushed Antara out of the way and took the nail out of the wall. Within no time he inserted the nail on her back severing her wound. Antara once again took Raghu's name and winced in unbearable pain. On the other hand Raghu felt like he was stabbed. "Miss Kaul , tu musibat mein hain.Apun ko pata hain"he said. He felt tears coming out of his eyes.. "Bola tha na tujhe, ki chup chaap se tujhe giraane de.. Kyun bekaar mein apni maut ko aur bhayanak banana chahti hain"said Rehan.. Antara was very neak now.. The nail had hurt her badly.. She felt herself growing weak and her eyes closing.. "Teri maut accident lagni chahiye thi. Par tu bhi kaisi hain, shaanti se marna hi nahi chahti..."said Rehan. He dragged a weak Antara towards the balcony.. With a smile on his face "Tujhe mukti de raha hoon."said Rehan. Antara closed her eyes assuming that she is gonna breath her last. Rehanpushed her and Antara was about to topple down only to find her hand held by a strong arm..She opened her eyes in disbelief.. Raghu saved her once again. He quickly took her in his arms.. Rehanon the other hand was shocked and he cleverly ran away. Raghu wanted to kill Rehanbut he couldn't leave Antara in such a condition.. She was almost unconscious.. "Antara, aankhen khuli rakh Antara .. Kuch nahi hoga tujhe.. Apun tujhe kuch nahi hone dega"said Raghu stammering. He was crying... He immediately rushed her to the doctor..
At the doctor's place: ( 4 hours later)
"Iski chot bahut severe hain.. Nail ka pressure bahut zyaada tha.. Bhagwaan ki kripa se nail rusted nahi tha .. Yeh toh nahi keh sakta ki yeh theek hain, par aap isse ghar le jaa sakte hain .. Kyunki iski chot ko humne dress toh kardiya hain.. Patient ko andar hadiyon mein bhi chot lagi hain. Inko bistar se uthne mat dena.. "said the doctor.. "Doctor, apun iska poora dhyaan rakhega.. Apun pakka isse ghar le jaa sakta hain na..?"said Raghu.. "Haan, par bahut dhyaan rakhna..."said the doctor.. Raghu went to Antara and cupped her face..."Chal Miss Kaul, ghar chal."he said.. He scooped her up and carried her in front of everyone in the hospital and made her sit comfortably on the taxi. He took her to the houseboat. All the way he hold her back so that it didn't get hurt more. Antara on the otherhand was still in trauma. She was pretty shocked at the brutal murder attempt on her.. "Miss Kaul, bahut dard ho raha hain kya?"Raghu asked.. Antara nodded with a tear in her eye. Her back had irresistible pain... He again scooped her up in his arms and carried her to the bed. He gently placed her on the bed making sure he doesn't let her exert pressure on her back...
Antara wasn't saying a word.. She was still under shock.. "Miss Kaul, yeh sab kaise hua tha..?"said Raghu. "woh .. woh aadmi .. balcony... nail.. meri back.. murder"said Antara ... She then again stopped talking... Raghu understood that she shouldn't remind her of the incident... Suddenly out of nowhere Antara winced in pain.. "Kya hua Miss Kaul.. Dard ho raha hain?"Raghu asked worryingly. "Meri peet .Raghu ..!!"Antara cried.. "Miss Kaul, mana mat karna ..Mujhe teri peeth ko dekhna padega"said Raghu. "Chodo Raghu.. Main washroom jaake dekh loongi"said Antara. "Miss Kaul please !! Mujhe dekhna hoga..!!said Raghu. Antara no longer refused to him..She just stood quiet and Raghu gently lifted up her kurta leaving Antara hell embarrassed. But the site which he saw made him almost cry.. On an extremely fair back, was a ugly looking wound bandaged and dressed.. He gently caressed her back and had an urge to kill that guy who injured his antara like that.. "Main andaaza bhi nahi laga sakta ki tujhe kitna dard ho raha hoga" Raghu said silently.. He then put her kurti down and wrapped her in his arms.. He was gently hugging her back while Antara was lost in her own thoughts.. After a very bad incident she found herself in her saviours arms.. She didn't care about what the world would think about her..She just wanted to be in his arms. Now everything was crystal clear to her. The moment when that rehan was about to kill her, the only regret she was having that she couldn't see raghu for the last time. And also when rehan said the words Raghu tumse pyar karta hain!'.. in a flash everything got cleared to her. "Shaayad yeh haatse ne mujhe samjhaa diya hain, ki main.. main tumse pyaar karti hoon.. Apni jaan se bhi zyaada pyaar karti hoon. Isliye, jab mujhe laga ki main apni aakhri saans lene waali hoon, toh main tumhaara naam leti hoon. Mujhe chot lagti hain, toh main tumhaara naam leti hoon. Tumhaari baahon mein rehkar, mujhe sukoon milta hain..Antara Kaul , aaj se, Raghu ki hain.. Main apni poori zindagi Raghu ke hawaale karti hoon. Mujhe abhi zindagi se tumhaare alaawa kuch nahi chahiye.."said Antara in her mind. She remembers Raghu saving her from Satya and his men, saving her today... She remembers her possessive Raghu who wouldn't even let her dance with her college friend. She remembers the Raghu who planned a huge surprise b'day party for her. She remembers the Raghu who saved her dad. She remembers that he is her angel !! She remembers Raghu who helped her get her job.. She remembers the Raghu, whom she first met and now she loves madly.. With his arms wrapped around her , she gets a faint smile on her face.. "Bhagwaan ji, mujhe Raghu se kabhi juda mat karna. Agar aapka mujhe usse juda karne ka iraada hain, toh mujhe maut de dena...mujhe koi parwa nahi.. Par agar main jeeongi, toh uske saath"thought Antara
