There is a thing which I want to point out
One of the reasons I think is justified for Katha to run away is that ONS reveal which was supposed to be impossible to reveal is out. From two people it went to Raghuvanshi family, then Grewal family. What if this spreads even more? What explanation will Katha give to Aarav and other outsiders which are close to her? Why is she ready to live with her abuser? The way Maaya Mausi still didn't give up on plotting and as a last resort asked Reet to spread the fire, I don't think I will trust on Viaan that he will handle everything.
Also, it is evident that any amount of explanation is going to do no good. I would say that Katha underestimated the reaction of everyone else in her confrontation with Maaya Mausi when she said that she will tell about this to everyone. But, neither she or Viaan understood the gravity of the situation.
Kavita was even disgusted at herself and Viaan. Katha did explain it to Grewal family and even defended Viaan - "Kabhi kabhi halat bhi acche logon se galti karwa deta hai" (something along this line) despite being in miserable condition. She came in front of gun.
Viaan was simply traumatized by hearing the name of his father and Katha had to address that night again and again and also defend Viaan who was reason for her trauma and everyone including Viaan will not fkin stop talking about that night. But, all this defense did very little bcoz the point is, what was Viaan doing with an employee in a hotel room. It questions his very character.
However, this reasoning has not been shown. It may be shown in future then audience will realize the gravity of the situation. However, they have made Aarav as the only reason Katha is running away. He should be a reason but, not only reason. Others are also connected as well.
The thing which is happening that is Katha moving on and running away from her past is justified from a neutral perspective but, reasoning is not given a proper shape by the writers.
Also, this is the entire reason why ONS reveal was kind of dead end for this love story realistically. It is very difficult to live with such a past and with constant fear of getting exposed.
