Naina was sitting with Dr Amar. She is briefing him about Pragati's case.
Naina: I am so disgusted. How can he do this?
Dr. Amar: This is a kind of abuse Naina. Although it's a clear case of domestic violence. Par there are many aspects involved
Naina: like?
Dr. Amar: like mental abuse. She has been forced to let go of her financial independence. Salon tak she felt like it's ok to be in that toxic relationship because of our societies notion.
Naina: I ...Han shayad usko bahut pahle bahar nikal jana chahiye tha
Dr. Amar: Exactly. Imagine agar uski neighbour ne use aj nahi bachaya hota ho she would have been dead.
Naina: hmm. Fir vo ruki kyu thi?
Dr. Amar: bahut sare factors hote hai. Like society, parental pressures, the belief that female needs to hold on to the relationship or it's their responsibility to make it work. Aur sabse important, we feel ki we can change people.
Naina: so we can't?
Dr. Amar: it's possible but it's a trying path. Plus there is no guarantee ki it would work. In fact people don't change until they really want to. So ye ho movies and stories me dikhate hai it's not a truth always. People doesn't change because you love them and keep sacrificing for them.
Naina : so it doesn't work?
Dr. Amar: aisa nai hai Naina. Relationships are no maths, ki koi definite answer hoga. Case to case, people to people is varies. Par important ye hai ki hum apni boundaries discover kare. Log apne partner ko samajhne me PhD karna chahte hai par sochte hi nai ki vo khud kya chahte hai.
Naina: matlab tumhe relationship se pahle hi pata hona chahiye ki tumhe kya chahiye ?
Dr. Amar: It would be ideal par ideal to kuch hota nahin hai life me. So we make mistakes. Islie kuch rishte workout nahi karte and it's normal right. Har galti se hum apne bare me kuch sikhte hai. Future ke lie.
Naina: par kuch galtiyaan bahut badi hoti hai na
Dr. Amar: Naina life moves on. Vo galti tumhari zindagi ko ek naya mod de sakti hai. Sirf nazariye ki baat hai.
He held her hand because he knew what she is referring. Shalini explained her situation before hand.
Dr. Amar: Naina your whole life is in front of you. Nothing can stop you for achieving what you want. Rasta shayad thoda alag ho par iska matlab ye to nahin na ki it's not worth it now.
She smiled at him realising what he is trying to tell her.

Rajveer is pacing in Ritu's flat to make her understand his situation
Ritu: Damn it Raj. I don't understand why does it matter where she is. Important thing is it that we are together right.
Rajveer: Ritu it matters to me. I want to know where is she and she is safe or not.
Ritu: why Raj? I thought you made your choice.
Rajveer: I did but I can't shake off the feeling that something is fishy. How can she disappear like this?
Ritu: Raj make up your mind for God's sake. Make a choice and stick with it.
Rajveer left the place in frustration. He made a mistake of discussing Naina with Ritu. Now she is livid.
Rajveer could feel that something is terribly wrong with Naina. He never realised that her presence was a source of peace to him and now it's lost. As the time passes with no news of her, his anxiety is increasing.
He now decided to put his sources to find her. It's high time now, that he should know where she is.

Col. Chandra : I am sorry Naveen, I wouldn't have asked you. But this is something I can't trust anyone. Not even Rajveer actually specifically not Rajveer.
Naveen: I can understand Sir. Par actually I have some personal issues going on.
Col. Chandra: oh ok. Actually Naveen mere pass tumhare alawa koi aur choice nahin hai. Otherwise we might need to abort this mission.
Naveen: no sir. We can't do this. It's crucial for our country's safety that we will investigate this matter.
Col. Chandra: I know. And no one will be in as crucial position as you will be.
Naveen: hmm.
Col. Chandra: do you want some time Capt?
Naveen: sir I want to do this. But I need to manage somethings on my end. Can I get some time before it?
Col. Chandra: sure. I am thinking of doing some ground work before actually starting this. May be you can be involved in it and after around 1 or 1 and half months we can actually start this.
Naveen: thanks a lot sir.
Col. Chandra: although this goes without saying but Naveen, not a word about this to Rajveer. He cannot know anything about this investigation.
Naveen: yes sir. Don't worry about it at all.
Col. Chandra : I am counting on you Naveen. You are dismissed.
Naveen left the room with a looming feeling. This investigation will be really risky as well as dangerous. And most importantly who will be taking care of Naina during this time.
