Abhi keeps saying oye, and this is the first time Akshu cannot say it back. She keeps turning around, because she cannot meet his eyes. She is dying inside and she knows that if she looks at him, he will see that something is deeply wrong. Abhi thinks she is getting shy so he teases her. She turns around and hugs him. He tells her to leave because he is shareef and is so happy. 
Akshu is about to have a panic attack outside of his office. She is having flashbacks to the kid’s words and says she has to know everything from Aarohi so that she can tell Abhi. She prays that what she is thinking isn’t true. She gets home and is desperately waiting for Aarohi, literally unable to do anything else.
There is a cute scene of the Goenkas preparing for the wedding and Manish getting emotional about Akshu. 
Meanwhile, Aarohi is in the OT thinking that she will emotionally blackmail Akshu to stay silent. Little does she know, Akshu will do literally anything for Abhi and she will always stand by the truth… and both are on the same side this time. 
Abhi sends the money to the detective and says he will punish whoever did this. 
The next day, Harsh tells Abhi to go to the hospital early, because Anand needs help. He says Aarohi is promising and go under his service, but Abhi refuses and says he wants to keep the rishta as that of saali, and nothing more. Harsh thinks that this is also because of Akshu. 
Abhi is wondering what is wrong with Akshu and she has been acting as if she needs to tell him something. Manjari overhears and says its probably because she is sad to be leaving home, and if its something else, she will tell Abhi. Her words are foreshadowing, because Akshu isn’t remaining silent this time. She is going straight to him with the truth. 
Abhi sees many clothes all in the living room and Shefali, Manjari, Parth, and Neil all tease him saying that he has to choose a lengha to send to Akshu. There were some really cute dialogues in this scene. He is trying to run away, but they are stopping him. Neil gives him Akshu’s kasam and he stays. We get a dream sequence to raatiyan lambiya re, and it is absolutely stunning!! This is the BTS photo of Akshu in the purple. 
Now… for the best and most important scene in the episode. 
Akshu sees Aarohi the next morning and drags her out of the house. Aarohi genuinely looks scared. Aarohi is not strong, and Akshu is not weak. When it comes down to it, Aarohi knows what Akshu is capable of and how fierce she is. And today’s scene proved it. 
Akshu dragging Aarohi out of the house was so deeply symbolic. Up until now, Akshu has been the one to keep her inside..safe. Akshu herself left so that Aarohi could stay. But, not anymore. Akshu is no longer going to shield her. 
Akshu asks Aarohi to tell her the truth and Aarohi confesses finally. Akshu is so shocked that she falls to the ground.
Aarohi starts blackmailing her, saying that if she tells the truth, her personal life and Aarohi’s career will be over. She says she has to stay silent. She stays to remain quiet and brush over it. Akshu looks DISGUSTED by Aarohi during this scene. Finally, she is seeing Aarohi for who she actually is. Aarohi is trying to go back into the house, but Akshu won’t let her. Again, Aarohi is out in the open now. Akshu is not protecting her.
Aarohi says that no one died, and Akshu slaps her. She asks her how dare she say something like this about a mother when both of them have lost their mothers. Akshu is ashamed to be associated with Aarohi and she is ashamed that she let Aarohi involve her in all of this. Finally, Aarohi’s true colors are out. She tells Aarohi not to touch her… she is DONE. 
Akshu can tolerate all the pain in the world, but the second Abhi is threatened, she loses her cool completely. She turns into the fiercest person alive. And this time, Aarohi harmed Manjari… Abhi’s entire life and the woman that Akshu has made her own mother. 
Akshu says that she will go tell Abhi everything right now. This is a parallel to the Ruby track of her saying she will get destroyed in love. Once again, she is willing to lose everything for the sake of telling Abhi the truth and protecting his faith in her. 
Precap- Akshu is driving to the hospital and Aarohi is chasing her. Abhi has the footage, and both families are there because Abhi wants to show them something. 
I am damn sure the footage will show someone else hitting Manjari & this track is coming to an end!!! I think Akshu will still tell him everything that happened though! And what Abhi wants to show them is probably something related to the shaadi festivities.
