The episode opens with Ruhi sitting on the edge of her bed, a set of beautiful bangles in her hands. She eagerly tries to wear them, but to her dismay, they get stuck on her wrist. Frustrated, she mutters to herself, calling herself a fool for attempting to wear something that clearly doesn’t fit. As she struggles, her mind drifts back to Abhira’s encouraging words, reminding her that she deserves to be happy. This reflection brings a faint smile to her face, but the struggle with the bangles remains a source of irritation.
Just then, Arman and Daksh enter the room and notice Ruhi’s predicament. Arman, with a hint of sympathy, remarks that Abhira would have been there to help her if circumstances were different. He approaches her and tries to assist, but in his eagerness, he accidentally pushes the bangles further onto her wrist. Ruhi laughs at the irony of the situation, feeling a mix of embarrassment and gratitude for Arman’s attempt to help.
Curious about Arman’s support, Ruhi asks him why he chose to stand by her in front of society. Arman pauses for a moment before revealing the promise he made to Rohit, her late husband. He reassures her that she deserves to find happiness and that he will always be there for her, ensuring she and Daksh are never alone. Ruhi’s heart swells as she reflects on the fact that Rohit, Abhir, and now Arman all want her to be happy. This realization leads her to contemplate the possibility that Arman might actually be the perfect partner for her to move on with.
Meanwhile, in another part of the house, Kiara is hatching a plan with Samrat. She encourages him to make Abhir jealous, but Samrat scoffs, claiming that Abhir doesn’t seem affected by anything. Undeterred, Kiara concocts a scheme for a fake date with Samrat, even going so far as to give him money to play along. Samrat, feeling smug about his ability to deceive, thinks it will be an easy task to fool the girls.
Back with Abhira, they call out to Vidya, who is caught in a moment of contemplation. She questions Abhira about what would happen if Kaveri’s words turned out to be true—that Pookie might start loving Ruhi more than her. Abhira confidently reassures Vidya that nothing like that will happen, emphasizing that Pookie will receive the love of two mothers. She firmly states that while she can share everything with Ruhi, her bond with Arman is non-negotiable.
As Ruhi continues to receive help from Arman, she begins to realize that he is the one who truly cares for her well-being. Meanwhile, Abhira overhears a distressed Krish pleading with Sanjay to save him from a troubling situation. The atmosphere shifts to a celebratory tone when Manish invites everyone to join in a dance. Initially, Abhira hesitates, pointing out that even Ruhi isn’t dancing. However, Arman insists, and soon enough, Abhira, Kiara, Vidya, and Manisha find themselves joining in the festivities.
Charu encourages Ruhi to dance as well, but she insists that she will only dance with Arman. When Arman offers his hand to Ruhi, she takes it, feeling a rush of happiness. Abhira joins them, but Ruhi’s expression shifts to one of discontent as she watches them together. Aryan then pulls Abhira to dance with another group, leaving Ruhi feeling pleased that Arman remains by her side.
As the celebration continues, Abhira attempts to discuss Krish with Arman, but Ruhi interrupts, redirecting the conversation to Daksh. She starts teaching Daksh how to call Arman “father,” urging him to focus on their new family dynamic. Observing the closeness between Abhira and Arman, Ruhi interrupts once more, reminding Abhira to look after Daksh. Abhira, sensing the tension, informs Arman that Krish is in trouble, heightening the stakes of the situation.
Later, Ruhi expresses a desire to visit the toy shop and insists that she can handle both Daksh and Pookie. Arman reassures her that he and Abhira will manage everything together, encouraging her not to worry. Despite his comforting words, Ruhi feels a pang of jealousy, realizing her feelings for Arman are becoming more complicated.
At the office, the tension escalates when police arrive looking for Krish. Sanjay, quick on his feet, lies, claiming that Krish is out of the country. However, Abhira remains determined to uncover the truth. She overhears Krish begging Sanjay for help, expressing his fear of going to jail. In a moment of urgency, Abhira tries to contact Arman for assistance, but Ruhi, feeling protective, cuts off her call.
Precap
In a shocking moment, Daksh calls Arman “father,” leaving both Abhira and Ruhi in stunned silence. Abhira, taken aback, informs Arman that Daksh has called him “father” before, leading to a confrontation. Arman, feeling betrayed, confronts Abhira for hiding the truth about Daksh, setting the stage for a dramatic confrontation that could change everything.
