Later, she is discussing this with dadi and Garima when Shikha enters saying she knows there is distance between them. She tells Santosh that Sarika sleeps on the bed and makes "poor Jay" sleep on the sofa because she is only concerned about her studies and ambitions. Santosh is shocked but Shikha promises to prove it.
Exam forms are being filled in the college. Sarika quickly fills hers and hands it over. The peon gives the forms to Tripathi, who leers and mutters--Sarika Poddar, you don't know that you have jsut signed the form surrendering your scholarship! He tells Naveen that Sarika has agreed to sign hte form. He is sitting in his cabin, telling a parent over the phone--now it's only a matter of days before Sarika leaves and your son gets the seat. Just then the peon enters with a cup of special coffee, followed by Jay. He tells Tripathi that he has got the new contract for the college canteen. He 'accidentally' knocks over Tripathi's papers and picks them up to hand them over.
In prof Qureshi's class, Naveen passes Sarika a note saying Thank You. The prof notices this and scolds Sarika. She blasts him after class. He says--I only wanted to thank you for giving up your scholarship. Sarika goes to complain to the Principal. Tripathi is sitting there. He tells the principal that Sarika has agreed to surrender her scholarship. Sarika denies it. Tripathi claims he has the form. But when he searches for it, it is missing. The principal pulls him up. (Jay had overheard Tripathi talking on the phone and slipped Sarika's form out of the file).
Sarika is surprised to see Jay in the canteen; but he tells her in a businesslike way that he won't give her any special discounts on the food. Taruna and Ghutan rib each other. Sarika opens her tiffin. Jay asks her if he can have a parantha as he left his tiffin at home. She gives him one. They half-smile at each other.
At night, Sarika gets up to fill the water jug. Shikha makes Garima and Santosh come with her to Jay-Sarika's room to see their sleeping arrangements. When they enter, they are shocked.
