EPISODE : 24 :-

Voice in the background:
Life is so strange. One moment you are here… another moment there. You don’t even have any idea about what’s going to happen next.
See these women there,roaming and begging for earning their food. Who knows some day some prince will fall for them.. And they may get richer.. Anything could happen… It’s only the time that matters…tick tock..tick tock..goes the clock… changing everybody’s destiny.. Little by little…

An aeroplane is seen landing in the Indira Gandhi International airport.

A middle aged woman walks past by Sona,pushing her slightly, her passport fall off. Sona bends down to pick them up.. *Gun shots*

As a bullet just cross above her head..

People start running and screaming everywhere. There is so much chaos in the airport.

Voice : Everyone you meet.. And everything that happens.. Happens for good. See, if that woman would not have pushed Sona, probably she would have got shot. Was the bullet really for her??

Sona walks hurriedly, joining the long line of people.. Waiting to get their passports checked.She looks across and notices a cradle with an elderly female,an air hostess,and smiles.. Soha had been sleeping. After all it was a day-night flight.
“For the first time she is here, to meet her ‘papa’ and here she is sleeping peacefully” thought Sona..

Some masked people, trying to aim gun and shoot again.. But it was overcrowded and they could not get a good view of their “Target”, they walk out in vain, planning to shoot as they leave the airport.
After getting her passports checked, she hugs the air hostess, and hands her tips. She wakes Soha up and walks outside the airport…but Soha wanted to drink “Hot Chocolate” that was kept on display in a cafe inside the airport.

Sona gets her one.. And waits with her until she finishes.

They were giving free coupons that day. And Soha too got one,as she purchased a Hot Chocolate. A scratch card. Sona was busy in scratching it.. And lo behold… she just won a month’s stay in the “Vivanta by Taj ,Dwarka New Delhi”
Lucky girl. Lucky hands.She smiles broadly as the cafe owner gets them into a carriage towards a limousine. Soha was excited by the new V.I.P. type of attention she was getting. Sona smiled at her.

*******************

Dev was being brought out of his dark cell. He had been better than before. Perhaps completely cured. He walked out happily and was overjoyed seeing Ishwari and Asha. He apologised to Asha for NOT being able to save Sona. He was upset. But Asha hugs him tight and suggests they should go for a family picnic today.. As he has been cured fully from ‘depression’.

Dev smiles and agrees to go out.. But he has some important work to do before that. Ishwari and Asha looks surprised.

Dev comes to a temple and asks the pandit to to perform a veneration for a soul to rest in peace.. A shraadh… today evening..

He looks at Ishwari and says..

“It’s been 3 years… today was the day Sona left me.. And today is the day I got cured.. She sacrificed her life for my betterment… hence this was necessary.. –”

“But.. I have already I asked—”

“I know, but I want to do this by myself… in the temple”saying so Dev leaves followed by Ishwari and Asha.

**************

On reaching their beautiful hotel room,it was almost 6:30 A.M.,in the morning.





Sona gives Soha a warm water bath and gets her dressed in a beautiful pink shimmering frock. Sona too takes bath and gets dressed in a red suite worked upon with a glittered net. The mother daughter duo looked ravishingly awesome.. With all that glitters.Both take their breakfast.

Soha wanted to roam about Delhi,so Sona takes her out in a cab, to the India gate..and the children’s park there. Soha had amazing time touring around Delhi. She wanted to eat the cotton candy.

Dev was driving through the same road,as he notices Soha.

Sona was facing the man,paying him for the cotton candy.

Soha smiles and shows faces to Dev, while he stares at her amused. As the signal turns green and the cars behind honk.. Dev drives away..

Sona turns and asks

“Soha! What are you laughing at??”

Soha looks down.

Dev and Sona. Both unaware of the fact of being so close yet so far, they still had a feeling as though their significant one was close by.

Both felt the cool breeze upon their faces.

Sona gets into the cab..the driver turns his player on as the song “Tera intezar” played in background…

*************

Dev comes into his office.. Everyone welcomed him warmly. He just waves of and walks into his cabin.

“Sir has lost the interest to live.. He has become more stern and angry.. Hope some ‘Sona’ would come by….” said an employee.

Dev instructs his assistant to bring an interior designer asap.. He has to change stuffs in his room.

He then calls in the board of directors, to the conference room and discusses the condition of the company in the past 3 years.

As the interior designer comes.. Dev tells about how things should be.. And he keeps nodding on, as a background music plays on.

Dev walks off..while the works into changing his room structure began, to his car.. He was going home.. His mom had prepared lunch for him after 3 years.. He longed to eat that.

Asha had also brought various Bengali curry for him. Everyone awaited as he enters into his home. After a warm welcome, he takes his lunch.

Getting into his room..he walks towards his closet and finds his stuff as it is.. Just a long coat was there inside a packet.. He had worn it when he was brought for rehabilitation. He pulls it out and keeps it on the table, and takes a short nap. It was almost 3 by the time he woke up.

He gets fresh and leaves for his office.. With that coat. His room was renovated by then. It had Sona’s photo hung all over. Dev puts a garland around her large photo and lights an agarbatti in front of it. He notices her letter.. And tears roll out. He had Sonas’ mobile too kept in a box. Everything preserved as though it was some priceless diamond.

He thanked Sona to bring about happiness in his life.. To sacrifice herself for his betterment…

He opens the coat and pulls out the pockets… a paper falls off.

He bends to pick the paper and turns it to face him.

On top it was inscribed :

“To Dev.. From Rithwick”

He was frustrated by the name. With a long sigh he opens the paper.. It was fragile and needed to be opened carefully. The words were probably written with an ink pen.. Almost faded by now.

Dev turns on the table lamp.. And looks closer to the paper with a magnifying glass…

“Dear Dev,

Life had played a cruel game………..I was comp…..Sona………dead…but… will meet… when… fine…”

Dev was puzzled in reading the letter.. What was it that Rithwick wanted him to know?? He tried harder to understand the faded words upon the yellowish fragile paper.. But in vain..

He puts it back into his pocket.. And decides to meet Rithwick the following day.

The clock ticked on and he leaves for the Shraadh. It was almost 9.. When he was driving back.

That same coffee shop around the corner.. Brought back his memories fresh as ever.. He could hear Sona shouting at him..



///// “God!! What the hell is your problem??? It’s my life.. I am gonna do whatever i want… As long as it’s not related to you… You need not bother… Already you have created enough trouble for me… I haven’t come here on a date with you… It’s a small place.. N i had no option rather than to sit with you… And yes.. I know i talk loud and childish…”/////

He smiles. It was almost 3 years and one month… long time since he had had coffee here.. He decides to go there for a cup of coffee.

*************

Sona puts Soha to bed, leaving a nanny with Soha.. Sona leaves outside to hunt for Dev. She thought of the coffee place.. And wonders if he would have been there..she smiles… taking a cab there.

All the while,Sona decides to meet Dev as a different person… she did not know how he might react upon seeing her.. If he does not…

Tears roll out..  And Sona decides to meet as the person she is for the whole world.

She stops the cab in front of the parlour.. And gets decked up… completely changing her looks..Though not so recognisable.. Yet Sona and the personality she got into had a different character.. “Sakshi”. She then takes the cab to the palce she first saw him.

PRECAP:

Sona is seen entering into the coffee shop while,Dev is in his usual position and place… staring out of the window… as the tune of krpkab plays..

Will destiny help them meet and fall in love all over again?? Keep reading to know further..
