He helps her pick her bag and asks if she is fine. She nods yes and coughs. He offers her water and asks her to take care of herself as its Delhi and not her hometown. She nods okay. He offers her lift till her house. She says he is trying to help her to hide his mistake and refuses his help. He drives away saying she can do whatever she wants to..
Sharda takes Roohi to Copola Hotel’s icecream parlor. Rudra with Vanshika spies on them. Vanshika asks why are they here. He informs that he is spying on Roohi as she and Saransh had visited Copola hotel yesterday and he wants to know what is up to. Roohi eagerly waits for Preesha and notices her passing by with Pihu. She tells Sharda that she is going to washroom and leaves behind Preesha. Rudra notices that and asks Sharda where did Roohi go. Sharda says she wanted to go to washroom and sks him to go and check. Rudra follows Roohi and notices her going out of hotel. Fans throng him for a selfie.
Preesha wlaks towards a parking lot when she gets Arman’s call and informs him that she is going for shopping with Pihu. Roohi calls her mamma from behind. Tere Laad Ki Mai Chodhungi Na Tera Haath.. song plays in the background. Preesha turns and notices a girl extending her hands towards her. Pihu alerts her and says they are getting late. Preesha leaves in her car. Roohi stands heartbroken and thinks why didn’t mamma acted as not knowing her at all.
Rudraksh is shocked to notice Armaan in the hotel and thinks when did he return to Delhi, he went missing after Preesha went missing, if he is behind Preesha’s disappearance. He follows Armaan and notices him getting a staff room. Hotel staff stops him, but he threatens staff and enters the room to find no one there. He walks out when Sharda asks about Roohi. They both rush out searching for Roohi. Armaan hides and thanks god that he saw Rudra following him and escaped on time. Rudra notcies Roohi in parking lot and asks what is she doing here. Roohi asks what is he doing here. He says he had a meeting. Roohi says she saw her friend and her parents, so she came here. Rudra says she should have informed Sharda or Vanshika instead of going out alone. Roohi apologizes.
Rudra returns to hotel reception and asks receptionist about Armaan’s room number. Receptionist hesitates at first, but then checks register and informs that there is no guest staying here named Armaan Thakur. Rudra thinks Armaan must be staying in some other hotel and leaves after getting Sharda’s call. Armaan thinks it’s not easy to find him and recalls noticing Rudra following him and hiding and bribing receptionist to lie that he is not staying here. He thinks he should leave Delhi with Preesha before Rudra starts his investigation.
Rudra returns home and instructs Roohi that she and Saransh will not go anywhere without informing him. Vanshika informs him that he needs to attend Oberoi’s party. He refuses and asks her to cancel today’s meetings. She says she can’t, but says its her boss’ order. Sharda asks Vanshika not to feel bad about Rudra’s behavior as she knows how he is nowadays. Vanshika says she didn’t and leaves. Sharda thinks Rudra is not fine without Preesha and thinks where is Preesha now.
Pihu informs Preesha about a thief trying to snatch her bag and Vidyut saving her on time. Preesha gets concerned and asks if she is fine. Pihu says she is fine, luckily Vidyut saved her, she felt as if he was trying to impress her, but she told him that she hasn’t forgiven him yet. Preesha says Pihu will not go to college alone. Pihu asks her to chill as its a small incident and reminds that they are going for a shopping. Preesha says they will discuss about it. Pihu says okay SIL, love you SIL. Preesha says she felt someone used to say her same.
Roohi returns home sady and informs Saransh that she saw mamma. Saransh happily hugs her and asks where did she see mamma. Roohi says outside the hotel. Preesha informs Pihu that she saw a girl outside the hotel and felt she is related to her. Roohi cries telling Saransh that mamma was right in front of her and even looked at her, but acted as if she doesn’t know her. Preesha tells Pihu that she felt as if she knows the girl and she is part of her life and miss her unknowingly. She says the girl was looking at her, and she feels as if she saw her dear one after a long time. Pihu says that is because she is too good. Roohi says mamma didn’t hug her or even reacted, did mamma forgot her.
Saransh asks her to stop crying and says mamma must not have seen her between the crowd or else she would have identified her. He says they will go tomorrow to meet mamma. Roohi says papa ordered not to go out uninformed and instructed even driver not to take them out. She says even if they go there, receptionist will not let them meet mamma. He asks how will they meet mamma then. She recalls Preesha talking about attending a party at SR Purple Regency Hotel. They both plan to meet Preesha there.
Rudra scolds his private investigator for failing to locate Preesha. PI says he tried his best but couldn’t find her anywhere. Rudra asks what about hospital CCTV footage. PI says they didn’t find any clue in the footage. Rudra says they will now as he saw Armaan after a year and he is sure he is behind Preesha going missing. PI asks why does he think so. Rudra says because Armaan madly loves Preesha and had come back to Delhi lying that her has terminal illness and is dying, but today he saw him healthy. He asks PI to find ot Armaan’s details.
Armaan informs Digvijay about Rudra seeing him at the hotel and says they should return to Mumbai tomorrow and try to convince Preesha. Preesha returns home with Pihu and Kanchan and asks why he looks upset. He says this business is suffering in Mumbai and hence they need to return to Mumbai tomorrow after dropping Pihu to college. Preesha says she will not leave Pihu alone as she was attacked today. Pihu describes the incident. Armaan says they will get Pihu admitted in Mumbai’s best college. Pihu says Delhi’s college is the best and hence she will not go. Preesha also gets adamant and asks Arman to go if he wants to. Armaan thinks how to explain her that Rudra will find her if she stays here.
Armaan meets PI again who informs that Armaan is in Delhi and is staying at Copola Hotel with his family. Rudra realizes receptionist lying on Armaan’s instructions and says he needs to reach Armaan somehow before he goes missing again. PI says Armaan is visiting Oberoi’s engagement party with his family. Rudra recalls Vanshika informing him about Oberoi’s engagement party, calls Vanshika and asks her to reconfirm his attendance in the party. He thinks he is sure Armaan has done something to Preesha, he will attend the party to search her. Armaan looks at Preesha and thinks Rudra will come search for her, he will take her far away from Rudra after the party tomorrow.
Roohi dances with Saranh on Love Yo Zindagi.. song excited to meet Preesha tomorrow. She continues feeling excited and doesn’t get sleep while Saransh falls asleep. She walks to the living room and finding someone there tries to hit him with a broom. Rudra stops her and says its him. They both play around. She asks what was he doing in the kitchen. Rudra says he wasn’t feeling sleepy, hence came to kitchen to have ice cream. Roohi says same with her. They both enjoy ice cream.
