Kali goes out of her room with tears.
Mahi sees her tears.
M:Kali!What happened?Saw Nakul going out.You fought with him?
Kali:Please mom.Don't interfere in my family life.
Mahi is really hurt.
M:Kali!I'm your mother.How can you say that i should not interfere in your life?
Kali's eyes become wet:Mom...hearing your stories i hurt Kumud and kkusum mom a lot.Still they forgave me.Because of you Kkusum mom was put out of this house.Still Kkusum mom did'nt try to take revenge on you.That time you pretended to be nice and entered Kapoor house again.But after Kkusum mom's death,i saw your true face.You have not changed.
M:Kali!Whatever i did was for our happiness.I wanted us to have a good family life.You,your dad and myself.But because of Kkusum and Kumud it did'nt happen.That's why i tried to keep them away from your dad's life.
Kali:Like you i also tried to keep Garv away from Kumud.But what happened?Now Garv is not with me or Kumud.
M:Kali...still you think of Garv?
Kali does'nt say anything.
Kumud comes.
M:Kumud..why did you come here?To hear our conversation and enjoy?
Kumud:Mahi aunty...
M:Because of you now even my daughter hates me.Are you happy now?
Kumud:Mahi aunty...yes i was angry with you for creating misunderstandings between us and mumma.Because of you mumma suffered a lot.I also ignored her.But i never tried to separate Kali from you.
M:Enough Kumud.God has punished you for what ever you did to us.God made you a widow twice.And your first husband whom you dream of even now is not with you.You don't even know where he is.
Kumud's heart is torn by her words.
Her tears flow down.
Kkusum hears the last part of their conversation.
Kkusum:You are not my real grand mother.Still i consider you as my grad mother and call you nani.But you are so cruel to my mother.I cannot tolerate this.How can you blame my mom for her own fate?It was God's decision to make her a widow.Not her fault.
Kumud:Kkusum...please stop it.You should not talk like this to your nani.
Kkusum:No mom.Now i have to speak.I will not allow anyone to talk against you.Mahi nani...you are also a widow.Don't forget that.
Mahi's face becomes red.Then she says:But my husband..that is your Abhay Nanaji did not die when he was my husband.He died when he was your Kkusum nani's husband.Don't forget that.
Kkusum becomes silent.She does'nt know how to react.
M:Kumud...try to make your daughter understand that.
Kumud becomes upset.
Abhay's aunty and uncle Arundati and Kapil come.
Arundati:What is happening here?
M:Kumud and Kkusum are trying to attack us.
Arundati:Kumud...your daughter Kkusum's tongue is unbearable.Try to control her.
Kkusum runs to her room crying.
Kumud:Please don't blame Kkusum without knowing anything.
Kapil:Kumud is right Arundati.Kkusum is very mature and nice like Kkusum.She won't do any mistake.
A:You are finding fault with me?
Kali:Stop it.This fight started off with me and mom.Now it's continuing.Nonsense!
M:Kali!
K:Stop it mom.Are you not fed up of creating fight among everyone?
M:Kali!
Kali:Just leave me alone.Give me peace of mind.
Kumud goes towards Kkusum.She wipes her tears.
K:Kkusum!
Kkusum hugs Kumud:Mom!I can't stand anyone talking against you.
Kumud:Don't be too sensitive Kkusum.
Kkusum:Mom..can i ask you something?
Kumud looks at her.
Kkusum:What did Mahi nani say?I mean..she said something.Right?Like you...i mean do you love someone now?
Kkusum's question pricks her heart.
Kkusum:She said the person you love is not with you now.Who is he?
Garv's face comes to Kumud's mind.
Kumud:Kkusum...i have an important meeting now.I have to go now.
Kkusum:Mom..i know that you have no meeting.Please tell me mom.
Kumud:I don't have anything to say.All i can say is love can wound your heart.That wound cannot be healed.I have experienced it.
Kkusum becomes upset.
Kumud controls her tears and leaves the room.
Kkusum is thinking of Kumud's words and walking in the college.
"Love can wound your heart.That wound cannot be healed".
She sees Gaurav standing in front of her.
G:You did'nt look at me today.What happened?Yash said you did'nt concewntrate properly on lectures today.
Kkusum tries to walk away.He follows her.
G:What is wrong with you Kkusum?Why are you avoiding me?Is it because i am praising Sonia?Girls are always jealous.She is always after me.What to do?
Kkusum tries to move away.
G:Kkusum!
He pulls her towards him.
They both look at each others' eyes.
She looks really upset as she is haunted by Kumud's words about love.
Gaurav notices pain in Kkusum's eyes.
G:Kkusum!
Kkusum:Gaurav...we are good friends.But why are you holding me as if i am your girl friend?
Suddenly Gaurav becomes conscious and leaves her.
They can't face each other.
She says in her mind:Gaurav..i know that you love me.But i can't love you back.I don't want to undergo what my mom has undergone in her life.
Kkusum goes away.
He thinks:Did Yash tell her that i love her secretly?Is that the reason why she is avoiding me?This Yash!
Gaurav talks to Yash.
G:Did you tell Kkusum that i love her?
Yash gives a naughty smile:Why bhai?One day she has to know how much you love her.Right?How long can you hide it from her?Anyways i did'nt tell her anything.
G:You did'nt tell her anything?
Y:No.Why should i tell her?You have to tell her that.Right?
Gaurav thinks:Then why is Kkusum behaving strangely?
