Arpash and Aarshant got engaged. While Yash was putting a ring on Arpita's finger he couldn't keep his eyes of Aarti. He was drawn towards her. He had this ill feeling in his heart that claimed Aarti has his. He was possessive of Aarti.

Yash heart kept on saying like he'll you are. She's mine only and no one claims what's mine and lives to tell a tale about it. Okay that part its a lie but i could make it exceptional.
