I feel like we're all having two parallel world discussions here. 😆
One, in theory. On paper, as we understand Meerub and Murtasim's characters to be and how and why they reacted the way they did post the deed. Why the regret and guilt makes sense, even with the lack of a conversation later which realistically would have been the next step. The way some of us understand these two, mann, this show would have been such a masterpiece if writers took suggestions and ideas from here.
Two, as per the episode, it's godawful re-editing. So, ofcourse, as per what you see and depending on which context out of the two (originally MR and no MR in the plot) do you apply, some aspect of it or the other isn't obviously going to make sense. That's just a lost case there.
Personally, I'm just relieved that they chose consensual sex over MR, no matter who initiated it or asked for it. Meerub being the one was the safest way out of the mess and as unfair as that may have been to her as a FL lead (Nooran and team have always written her so poorly, so it doesn't make much of a difference to me), it was imperative that Murtasim's character be salvaged. Reason being the way they had developed Murtasim's character to be all this while and unfortunately (or fortunately), Meerub came to the rescue.
