Arjun mentions she was getting ready here so they generally do it in their own room. Preeta asks if anyone has told him that it doesnot feel nice talking, he replies that someone has actually said to it and it is Preeta.
He with a smile asks how can she act and talk like this like a bitter cord. Preeta recalls that Karan used to call her by this name, she in frustration questions how did he dare call her as only those who are close or mean a lot, what does he think of himself since he first came to her room and even then, misbehaved for which he did not apologize.

Preeta stops asking Rishab what has happened, he says that she might have felt weird seeing Arjun in the room but he feels she is fine, Preeta replies he himself said that she seems fine, she realizes that she forgot her phone in the room. Sameer comes asking Rishab if he has seen Arjun since the media wants to talk with him. Rishab asks Preeta to also call Arjun as he is still in the room.
Arjun is cleaning the wounds on his hand, Preeta notices him so in shock asks about them, Arjun assures that they are not that big and everything would be fine. She forces him to sit and starts applying the medicine, he screams blaming she did not it on purpose. Preeta thinks about how Karan also acted the same way thy both met the first time, she keeps on applying it while he just stares at her.
