Tara introducing Jay to Chandra "Hey Chandra, meet Jay..and Jay meet my good friend Chandra "
"Hi Jay" Chandra with a bright smile..soon she realizes that its the same guy from the hospital (actually she plays along pretending not knowing him)
"YOU!! Ugh" Chandra with anger in her eyes stares at him.
Jay gets a bit scared that this time she might not leave him for the fiasco they had a couple of years back, so he excuses and escapes from CHandra's rage.
All this is a bit confusing for Tara...Chandr inquires "who is he? umm Jay?"
Tara a little hesitantly says "mm..my husband."
Chandra puts a puzzled expression, as Tara didnt invite her no did she share this news.
"tune shadi karli woh bhi aisey hot say bandey say and you dont let me know..i am hurt"Chandra rants
Tara tries to convince Chandra, but the latter is too mad. Then Tara calmly explains her everything.
Chandra consoles her pal..Tara brushing off the topic and hurt...asks Chandra in turn asks her how did she knew Jay and what did he do to earn her disgust.
Chandra narrates the episode a few years back when she for the first time saw Jay.
FB:
I saw Jay a couple of years back.. in his struggle days..when he was nuthing.
Dayji suggest Jay ..'beta tumharein haath par bahut gehra chot laga hai..doc paas dikhao..mereyliye.'
"Dayji meney kahanmain bikul theek hoon..yeh ghav bahrjayegaa"
But Dayjeet insists him to see a doc.
On Dayjeet's persistent insist Jay goes to the doc..he waits for his trun from a general physician.
As he waits, he see a couple get their reports..
The husband opens the report..which read "POSITIVE"
Husband "I really can't believe this, you are pregnant"
The wife is glad beyond words, the couple seem to have an overwhelmed feeling abt their child, thought Jay.
Jay congratulates them ...Then after Jay goes in to attend to his wounds..theyy tie a bandage around his arm and give him a prescription to reduce the pain.
A few months after that event...there was a kind of stamped in a temple and we saw Jay holding a woman- unconscious and begging the nurse, docs n accounts ppl that they get the woman some help..but as there were too many patients cause of the stampede the docs didnt give that much time for teh causality cases. And the woman whom Jay held was thought as causality . But Jay gets angry on seeing no one care for teh woman..he breaks the computer and the drawer of the main reception desk..to get everyone's attention to him..He informs the hospital authority taht the woman is a case of this very hospital and is expecting.
Then they become aware of the situation and treats the woman...the husband too arrives and thanks Jay for being the savior.
Chandra stood forth him and asks for repay for the damage he has done at the hospital reception.
He pays the cash instantly...
Back to present day:
"Tara, Jay is a fine human..." says Chandra.
"Yes, i know" tara replies.
"You know how he pay for all that?." after a pause Chandra says "he sold his HD for an unknown couple" she adds "the man is quite something."
Tara knew what the bike meant for Jay- he a kind guy... she knows what Jay is...he has always been kind and loving towards her..she knows he is a fine man..even if Chandra never said all this...she knew her man well by now.
But this piece of info touched Tara and somewhere pulled her to Jay.
Chandra states "Tara, you are indeed very lucky to have such a man as your husband. Dont let sucha guy go away from you.."
Neil calls up tara to at last talk it through on their relationship...the mess they all have been so long into.
He inquires "Hi Ta...kaisi ho tum?"
"Jay,..sorry Neil..I am fine..but I have been meaning to talk to you of something for sometime now...and I..I just need to do it today..or I'd go mad!" tara says her plight.
Neil says "Ta..we have been great friends since childhood and you still are this day...will always be indeed..but marriage is so not for us..."
Tara hearing this brightens up..then she realizes herself of her act and disciplines herself...and after a while replies "Neil, I think I have been too much into my shy and guilt mood taht it took away my practical thinking..I think your right...we were too stupid and hurt to even think of marriage with each other when we dont even fit to something as pure as love or marriage...I guess this was it"
"So that means your not mad at me" Neil inquires.
"Mad at you..no..guess I was too meek..and now when I see Jay, I feel my strength back...Neil, I am happy with my husband..and we were never meant to be together as anything but good friends." she boldly utters..leaving the skin of shame n shy.
"hah..rebound !" Neil with a sigh of relief...
"we saved ourselves from making our lives a bigger mess.." She replies looking at the ground
"True.." Neil seconds.
Neil hugs his friend and says "thanks Ta..thank for making it easy for me..for us."
Traa and Neil find their old bond back...and are very hopeful for their respective love interests.
The next weekend..neil invites Chandra, Jay and Tara to their biyearly get-together near the hill camp.
They busy themselves in their favorite activities with others...Neil and Jay decide to have their buddy time this time...and Chandra and Tara decide to cook up something for themselves and sit at a cozy corner wid a cup of tea with their cherished memories to their company.
As the dusk downs...the clouds wore a scarier and darker shade..and threaten to pour anytime...Tara is worried of Neil and Jay..as they are still busy crazy with the river rafting...oh she always hated the sport...putting once life in such perilous condition..she did try to warn bot her pal and her husband.,,but men..MEn..does anyone call them MEN...they were acting like BOYS...teenagers to be precise. There was a big cloud burst heard,,,this scared both Tara and Chandra...for Neil and Jay haven't returned yet..they ask everyone who went to the rafting...but Neil and Jay where not to be seen..
Then Chandra gets some info on the event and shares the news that there is a possibility that Neil and Jay must have been somewhere in the waters...swimming..drowning...
Precap:
his long hair floating in the water and his face wet..shining in the moon light...his hefty structure immersed in the water..
