"Priya, Shona." Prem said softly, quickly walking up to her, but Priya shook her head abruptly and scurried off back to the room, without even acknowledging Prem.

"Princess, wait." He called, as he walked out of the room, but Priya slammed the door shut, not letting Prem in.

"See, she doesn't even want to say anything to you." Mamta started, but Prem turned around and demanded harshly,

"Don't you dare speak! You've spoken and did enough damage to my Priya and our relationship. You don't get to say a word about my relationship because you aren't my mother."

"Prem." Mamta said out of shock, her heart beating fast and tears gathering in her eyes. It felt like a stab in the gut that her favourite son said that, but it was her fault for listening to Bhagwanti.

Prem stormed out of his parent's room to go back to the three sisters' room, but he was met with the others, who had sympathetic looks.

"Prem. Kya hua?" Vivek asked, going up to Prem with Sameer doing the same. They wrapped their arms around him to rub his back in reassurance.

"I had an argument with Maa about Priya and She heard. She got so upset and I tried going after her, but she shut the door. She probably doesn't even want to see my face and it's all my fault." Prem sighed, with steam coming from his face.

"We heard everything, Prem Baiya. But just know that Priya running off was not your fault. It was her decision and I think she needs to cool down and process everything." Sadhana said, which the others agreed on.

"You did a good job in defending Priya. That's how strong your love is for her." Preeti said.

"I couldn't defend her enough, Preeti." Prem said, nervously and licked his moist lips.

"What do you mean?" The others asked, but they knew what it was.

"Maa said Priya is self harming." Prem said, trying to hold back the tears from the shock. Vivek and Sameer wrapped their arms around Prem in a hug, and Prem returned it. They knew how the couple were going through some difficult times together, but they were going to support them the whole way through.

"What did you say to Aunty in regards to that, Prem?" Amar asked, looking at the others fearfully.

"I told her Priya wouldn't self harm like that because she has me to confide in. But Priya heard anyway what was said and she ran off. I need to speak to her urgently and comfort her because this could trigger her." Prem said.

The others knew Prem was in denial, but he didn't know whether it was true, unlike them. But they knew they couldn't drop such a big bombshell on him. They knew Prem had to console Priya about what she heard.

"Prem, go check on Priya. She's more important right now." Rahul said, and the others agreed.

"She needs you right now, Prem Baiya." Simran encouraged her brother. Prem nodded, and went to the door of the room to knock softly. The others around him.

"Priya, Sanam, it's Prem. Can you open the door for me please?" He said softly and lovingly to ease her in. But all they heard were Priya's sobs and whimpers.

"Baby sister, Prem Baiya just wants to speak to you." Sadhana and Preeti said, but all Priya said in a hurtful voice,

"Go away, everyone."

"No, Priya. I'm not going to let you cry your heart out without speaking to me." Prem pleaded. "Please Priya, let me in. I love you so much." He added, as his voice slowly faded away as he rested his forehead against the door with a sigh of defeat at the end.
