However, away from the celebrations, an emotional storm brews. Mukti asks Maira to come and meet Armaan, but the mention of him immediately triggers a panic attack in Maira. Overwhelmed by fear and anxiety after learning about Armaan's illness, she struggles to control her emotions. A worried Mukti rushes to comfort her. When Armaan and Abhira notice the disturbance and try to come to Maira, Mukti decides to stop them. Maira pleads with Mukti not to involve Armaan and Abhira, insisting that they should not be burdened with her pain.

As Mukti consoles her, Maira breaks down completely. The thought of losing Armaan terrifies her. Through tears, she confesses that she cannot imagine a life without him and fears she would never be able to survive if anything happened to him. Mukti tries to calm her down, urging her to stay positive and hold onto hope. The two then make a pact to keep their knowledge of Armaan's condition hidden from him and Abhira.

Mukti promises to handle everything, while Maira vows to stay strong. The two girls decide to become each other's pillars of support during this difficult phase. Back at the celebration, Nilesh encourages Armaan and Abhira to continue enjoying the Garba. However, the couple remains concerned and goes to check on Maira and Mukti. Abhira questions Mukti about the shouting they heard earlier. Unable to contain their emotions, Maira and Mukti hug Armaan tightly, almost as though they are afraid of losing him. Armaan senses something is wrong and repeatedly asks what happened.

Abhira reveals that Maira and Mukti had gone to the Poddar house and perhaps learned something there. Maira, however, quickly shuts down the conversation and tells Armaan that he owes nobody an explanation. She emotionally calls him her best friend and avoids discussing the truth. When Armaan again asks why Mukti had shouted earlier, Maira covers it up by claiming she was disturbing Mukti while studying.

To prevent further questioning, the two girls lock themselves inside a room. Outside, a confused Armaan and Abhira wonder why they suddenly closed the door. Inside, however, Maira and Mukti collapse into tears, unable to process the painful reality.
After some time, Abhira becomes worried because the door remains closed for too long. Eventually, Maira and Mukti emerge with a surprise. They have secretly been working on a miniature replica of Abhira's garage. When asked about it, Maira explains that she had previously criticised the house and pointed out all its shortcomings.

But now, after everything that has happened, she understands that the modest home is not just a house - it is a place that protects, shelters, and keeps their loved ones together. The gesture deeply touches Abhira and Armaan. Determined not to let their grief show, Maira and Mukti silently resolve to remain strong in front of them.

The emotional atmosphere then shifts into a touching Father's Day celebration. Myra and Mukti invite Armaan and Abhira to help complete their project and then surprise Armaan with a heartfelt tribute. They celebrate Father's Day by expressing how lucky they feel to have him in their lives. Their words leave Armaan deeply moved. When Myra asks what gift he would like, Armaan smiles and says that having Myra, Mukti, and Abhira by his side is the greatest gift he could ever receive.

Touched by his response, Myra and Mukti promise to make every Father's Day more special than the last. Mukti emotionally declares that no one will ever be able to separate their family. Their words carry even greater significance because of the painful secret they are hiding.

Later, Armaan decides to do something special for the women in his life. Wanting to ease Abhira's burden, he takes responsibility for household chores and even decides to step back from court work for a while. Despite his health concerns, he wants to support Abhira in every possible way.

Abhira repeatedly asks him to rest and focus on his recovery, but Armaan insists on balancing both his health and family responsibilities. He promises to take his medicines regularly while continuing to help around the house. Seeing his dedication and selflessness, an emotional Abhira hugs him tightly, cherishing the precious moments they share together.
