Also, Abhi stopped Akshu from hugging him because he would have to sanitize himself again before entering the OT. But then, he told her that Manish still has a lot to fight about with them, and he told Manish that he has to do Akshu's kanyadaan. And that is when Manish envisioned Abhi as Kartik. So, yes, I do think it is symbolic that Abhi didn't let Akshu hug him... maybe they will indeed distance themselves for Manish's health, or at least decide to. But, what is even more symbolic, is that despite the distance, they will continue loving each other, and they won't break up. They will continue fighting for their love, even if it will be silently and quietly for now. Neither one of them is giving up, even if they are deciding to calm down for the time being until Manish heals. And after all of Manish's flashbacks today, all he is going to want when he wakes up is for Akshu to be happy. He truly feels like he has failed Kaira... and that is going to break him... it will break is ego and show him Abhira's true love...
