HAM leaves for the meeting.
Akshu serves drinks to the Goenkas as the Birla bahu and everyone gets emotional remembering her serving them as their daughter. Neil and Abhi have a conversation about how hard it must be for Akshu to adjust. Abhi feels so bad seeing Akshu emotional and sad. This bond needs to be protected at all costs. Abhi understands Akshu so well, and Neil is also always there to give perspective.
Abhi tells the family that there is a special event for Akshu’s music department today and they have to go after. Manjari says this is all because of Akshu’s hard work, and Abhi shows everyone a wall of fame with trophies. Shefali says that her trophy is the biggest and she wishes that someone had supported her to Parth. Parth taunts the same thing. Both of them have serious communication and understanding issues, but Akshu will surely help them solve it. They are not used to seeing couples like Abhira supporting each other. Abhi says he will clear space on the wall if Akshu needs more, but he already has slots for her. Manjari says to clear away, because Akshu will get so much success. The support she gets from these two people is so pure. Akshu thanks Abhi and he smiles. She is so in awe of him. Her dreams are even more important to him than they are to her.
HAM is in the meeting and they decide to close down the department and build an IVF center instead. They say this is what is best for the hospital, but in reality, it is all about their egos. The hospital loves Akshu’s therapy and it is doing wonders for them. They just cannot tolerate it. Harsh takes credit for the idea and Mahima gets pissed during the meeting — again, this is where her insecurities come from, but what she does as a result is unacceptable.
Parth and Neil decide to change the ring finding game so that Abhira cannot hold each other’s hands or make the other person win in the milk. It is clear water with chopsticks.
Abhi wins. He then reveals to everyone that Akshu let him win. She tries to cover it up, but Abhi says it’s not true. Abhi says that their losses and wins are the same and there is never any competition between them. She says that you are my husband and I can do anything for you, but he says that is not love — that she should never give up what is her’s. This is the exact essence of who they are. Akshu does everything out of her emotions. She can do anything for the people she loves. She will continuously put Abhi first, even if that means she has to give things up. But, Abhi won’t let that happen. He is emotional, but he is also practical. He won’t let her suffer in silence. In this way, they will continue to balance each other out and be a team. They will face every challenge together. And, when one person falters, the other will pick up the slack.
By letting Abhi win today, Akshu also showed that for all the bashing she got during the marble game, it was never about making Abhi lose. He always has been her priority. That was just for fun, and she never meant to hurt him. In today’s game when it was about who takes the lead in life, she happily handed it over to Abhi. She does not care about being a leader or heading the relationship. She just cares about him being happy. And, for him, it is the exact same. There is never going to be any cheating or ego issues in this relationship. They both will do everything putting each other first always.
Akshu asks if Manjari can take the drinks up for HAM. She overhears them saying they are closing the department (but they have decided not to say anything yet and let the work begin first).
Akshu is so sad and goes back downstairs with the drinks. She has flashbacks about all the patients she has helped. It was never about the department. She doesn’t care about titles. It was always about helping people. That is her passion along with music, and this was the way for her to do it. She also remembers how happy Abhi was giving it to her. For her, the department is a symbol of Abhi’s love and excitement, and also her passions. That is what makes it special — not any fame she can get from it.
Kairav sees her crying and asks what happened. She brushes it off saying her ring keeps poking her because it takes time to adjust. She says she is really happy. She is not one to share her pain with others. She keeps it all in and always figures out how to deal with it. She has been through so much, and she is so strong. My heart breaks for her.
Abhi comes and sees them talking. He says that Akshu’s smile is my responsibility and Kairav says good thing I didn’t have to remind you. Abhi says you never will. There is definitely tension in this scene. Kairav is turning overprotective, and Abhi is not going to like that. He understands he loves her, but Abhi loves Akshu more than his own life and he won’t have people questioning that.
Abhi tells Akshu that he won’t ask her what they were talking about. Again, he is so respectful. This is the type of understanding that makes a relationship strong. He respects her privacy. But, he does tell her that he knows how hard it is to adjust here — even he hasn’t been able to. Abhi has been traumatized his entire life. He knows this is a hell hole, and his heart is paining for Akshu. So, he advises her to do what he does — just ignore everyone, especially Harsh. He says to stay away from everyone and just focus on him, Manjari, and her work. This is where Abhira are different. Abhi shuts it all out, whereas Akshu wants to bring the entire family together and bring them together. Abhi’s coping mechanism is to ignore, but Akshu’s coping mechanism is to try to win them over. They will clash here, but, again, they will balance each other out.
HAM comes down as the Goenkas are leaving. Harsh taunts and says you are leaving so soon, and Manish hits right back to say that they are businessmen so they have to balance. Manish always knows what to say.
The Goenkas ask whether Abhira are going on vacation and Akshu says its too hot, they just went to Jaipur, and Abhi has surgeries lined up. There is a little bit of tension here, but Akshu brushes it off. The Goenaks and Birlas are so different, and that is something that not only Akshu, but also the Goenkas will have to come to terms with.
Abhi and the others are joking around about Abhira working together and how this was all a plan so Abhi could do everything with Akshu. He is so so excited. Goenkas want to come watch Akshu do her job and Harsh taunts about the obsession of parents wanting to watch their kids work. Abhi comes right back and says that Harsh watched his first surgery so closely.
Akshu keeps thinking why HAM aren’t telling him that the department is shut down. She thinks it’s not her place to say.
Precap is the same!
