AK'S HOUSE,

Everyone reaches home. AK makes Ahaan sleep on the bed and changes his clothes. She goes to her room before she could lock the door Revati enters.

AK: Yahaan kyun aayi ho? Tumhara kamra wahaan hai.(controlling her tears)

Revati: Janti hun mai. Aaj mai aap ke saath rahungi.

AK: Lekin mujhe kisi ke saath nahi rehna. Mai akele rehna chahti hun.

Revati: Lekin mai aap ko akele nahi rehne dungi.

AK: Tum samajh kyun nahi rahi ho, mujhe akele rehna hai.

Revati: Aap nahi samajh rahe hai Di, aap ko abhi kisi ke saath ki zaroorat hai.

AK couldn't control herself and starts crying leaning on to the bed.

Revati: Sambhaliye khud ko.

AK: Kya kare tum hi batao. Itne saalon se unse door the phir bhi unse pyaar karte the. Lekin wo kisi aur ke saath.... Wo koi aur bhi nahi un ke hi parivaar waalon ki khooni hai. Hame alag karne wali aurat. Us Antara se...
Kaise kar liya unhon ne aisa. Ek baar hamare baare me nahi socha. Agar unhe usse utna hi pyaar tha to us ke waapas aane ke baad hame chhod dete, utni takleef nahi hoti hame jitni abhi ho rahi hai. Sab kuchh badal chuka tha phir bhi ek ummeed thi ki jab kabhi milenge to zaroor sab kuchh thik ho jayega. Lekin nahi, is baar bhi galat the ham. Kuchh nahi thik hone wala. Sab khatam ho chuka hai.

Revati: Abhi sab kuchh khatam nahi hua hai, Di.

AK: Khatam ho chuka hai. Us din ke baad Guddan naam ki ek chhoti si chingaari hamare dil ke ek kone me moujood thi, socha tha jab ham unse milenge na to us chingaari me aag lagegi, wo hamare dil me ujala kar degi, ek nayi zindagi mil jayegi. Lekin pata hai kya hua?? Wo chingaari jali, itni ki ab sab raakh ho chuka hai. Kuchh nahi bacha hai ab is dil me, sab raakh hai, sab khatam ho chuka hai.

Revati was calmly listening to her words just then she hears the ring of door bell.

Revati: Is waqt koun hai?

AK: Tum ruko, maine bulaya hai.

Revati: Koun hai Di?

AK goes and opens the door and takes the thing which she has ordered.

Revati: Di, kya hai is me?

AK: Tumhare matlab ki cheez nahi hai.

She was heading towards her room when Revati holds her hand and sees that but she was quick enough to enter her room and lock it. Revati bangs on the door.

Revati: Di, darwaaza kholiye!! Aap ne Waada kiya tha ki aap doobara kabhi sharaab nahi piyengi. Di, please meri baat suniye. Di, darwaza kholiye. Aap aisa nahi kar sakti.

AK: Revati please jaao yahaan se, tumhe hamari kasam.

Revati: Di, please!!!(she was crying and continuously banging the door to get her out of the room)

AK: Maine kaha na jaao, please!!

After sometime, as all her efforts went in vain she decided to leave to her room to take some rest but she can't sleep thinking about her Di's miserable turn of life. But soon sleep embraced her into deep slumber.

AK was continuously drinking to reduce the pain, her life has caused to her. She could have tried all the possible ways for it but she could only relieve herself through it.

JINDAL BHAVAN,

As every night, AJ goes to Guddan's room and takes one of her pictures. He holds it and started speaking to it.

AJ: Kahaan ho tum? Kyun itni door chali gayi ho ham sab se? Revati kya bol rahi thi tumhare bare me tumhe pata bhi hai? Mujhe pata hai tum ho, ehsaas hai mujhe tumhare hone ka. Jaanta hun bohot galtiyaan ki hai maine lekin is ka matlab ye nahi hai ki tum us ke liye mujhe saza me dooriyaan de do, ham donon ke beech ki dooriyan. Bohot pyaar karta hun tumse, ab aur nahi reh sakta mai tumhare bina. Please waapas aa jao Guddan!! Please!!

NEXT MORNING,

Revati makes Ahaan ready for the school.

Ahaan: Maasi, Mumma kahaan hai?

She sees the door of her room which is closed since last night.

Revati: Mumma, abhi tak so rahi hai. Kal bohot thak gayi thi na aur aaj to un ka shoot bhi nahi hai, isiliye wo abhi tak so rahi hai.

Ahaan: Mai jaa ke dekh kar aata hun.

He wants to see her and leave for the school wishing her Good morning and kissing her but all his thoughts vain as he finds the door of her room locked.

Ahaan: Maasi, darwaaza kyun band hai?

Revati: Shayad unhe disturbance hogi na isiliye unhone lock kar liya hoga.

Ahaan: Thik hai to chaliye school.

Revati: Ahaan, aaj aap driver uncle ke saath akele school chale jao, Maasi ko thoda kaam hai.

Ahaan: Ok!

She didn't wanted to go as she was scared of the outcome she will face after the door of the room will be opened. She is afraid to see the terrible view of her sister.

SCHOOL,

Arya: Ahaan, Angel kaisi hai? Un ki chot theek ho gayi?

Ahaan: Mumma ko chot lagi? Kaise?

Arya: Tum kal party me hi so gaye the na. Kal mujhe shock lagne wala tha lekin Angel ne mujhe bacha liya aur unhein chot lag gayi.

Ahaan: Mai Mumma se nahi mila. Subah gaya tha lekin un ka room lock tha. Maasi keh rahi thi ki wo thak gayi hai isiliye so rahi hai.

Arya: Pata nahi wo kaise hogi. Tum mujhe ghar jaa kar call karna aur batana ki wo kaisi hai.

Ahaan: Ok!

Arya: Mai school ke baad, restaurant ja rahi hun.

Ahaan: Kyun?

Arya: Kal nahi suna tha tumne? Aaj Dadda apne wife ke saath anniversary manayenge, restaurant me. Poori family hogi aaj, isiliye mujhe bhi jana hoga.

Ahaan: Achhi baat hai na, tum apne family ke saath rahogi.

Arya: Family ke saath thik hai, par mujhe wo nahi pasand tumhe pata hai na. Ek kaam kyun nahi karte, tum bhi chalo na mere saath.

Ahaan: Mujhe ghar jaana hai.

Arya: To kya hua? Bas thodi der ke liye, please... Mai akele bore ho jaungi na.

Ahaan: Achha thik hai. Agar Maasi ya Mumma aayegi to mai unke saath aaunga.

Arya: Thik hai, chalo.

After the school hours as they were waiting to go, Ahaan sees his driver and goes to him along with Arya.

Ahaan: Driver uncle! Maasi aur Mumma nahi aaye?

Driver: Nahi, unhone kaha ki mai akele chala jaaun.

Ahaan: Mai Arya ke saath restaurant ja raha hun, aap bhi chaliye. Phir ham wahaan se ghar chale jayenge.

Driver: Lekin agar Madam ko pata chala to.

Ahaan: Bas thodi der ke liye, Please...

Driver: Achha thik hai.

Arya: Ahaan, mere driver uncle aa gaye, chalo.

Ahaan: Ha. Driver uncle aap peeche se aaiye.

They all leave for the restaurant. As the media still didn't arrived, AJ didn't started cake cutting as he was only doing it for show off. Till then both the children were playing.

AK'S HOUSE,

AK wakes up with hangover. She freshens up and comes out of her room holding her head. Revati sees her and gets somewhat relieved.

Revati: Di! Aap thik hai na?

AK: Haa.

Revati: Aap baithiye mai aap ke liye nimbu pani lekar aati hun.

AK: Hmm.

She drinks lemonade.

Revati: Ab kaisa lag raha hai aapko.

AK: Better! Ummm.....wo.. Maine kuchh socha hai.

Revati: Kya?

AK: Khatam!!

Revati: Matlab?

AK: Guddan aur Akshat Jindal ki kahani khatam.

Revati: Di, lekin...

AK: Maine decide kar liya hai, ab mera past mujhe aur bother nahi kar sakta. Jo hona tha, jaise hona tha ho chuka hai, ab mera unse koi rishta nahi.

Revati: Aap abhi bhi unki patni hai.

AK: Nahi hai, Guddan unki patni thi, mai nahi. Ab unka aur mera koi rishta nahi hai.

Revati: Aap unse pyaar karti hai, Di.

AK: Koi pyaar nahi hai. Samajh kyun nahi rahi ho tum. Ek minute mai tumhe samjhati hun.

She picks up a magazine from the table. She sees a chef's pic in that.

AK: Tum inse pyaar karti ho?(pointing towards the pic)

Revati: Nahi.

AK: Inse nafrat karti ho?

Revati: Nahi, lekin Di..

AK: Usi tarah mujhe bhi unse koi farak nahi padta. Mai bas unhe pehchaanti hun as a chef, that's it. Mai unhe nahi jaanti aur na hi mujhe unse kisi bhi tarah ka rishta rakhna hai. Baat khatam.

Revati: Thik hai. Kariye aap ko jo karna hai.

AK: Ha,wo....(she takes a look at the clock and sees the time)

AK: Ahaan kahaan hai?

Revati: Wo abhi tak nahi aaya school se.

AK: Tum kyun nahi gayi use laane. 2 ghante ho gaye hai, agar traffic ke wajah se bhi late hota to aadha ghanta lagta. Wo abhi tak kyun nahi aaya?

Revati: Maine driver ko phone kiya tha, lekin wo phone receive nahi kar raha tha.

AK: Aise kaise?? Mai us ka location track karti hun.

She takes her phone and starts checking his location. The location she sees makes her blood boil with rage and anger. Revati peeps into her phone and gets shocked seeing the location.

Revati: Jindal restaurant?

AK: Ab shuru hogi Akshat Jindal aur Aliya Kapoor ki kahani!!

Revati: Di, rukiye!!

AK exits the house and locks the door from outside preventing Revati from following her.

JINDAL RESTAURANT,

Ahaan was busy playing with Arya and accidentally he bumps into AJ.

AJ: Ahaan!

Ahaan: Sorry AJ uncle!!

AJ: Koi baat nahi, aap yahaan kya kar rahe hai?

Ahaan: Mai Arya ke saath aaya hun.

AJ: Revati nahi aayi?

Ahaan: Nahi Mumma aur Maasi nahi aaye hai. Mai driver uncle ke saath aaya hun.

AJ: Ghar me pata hai ki aap yahaan hai?

Ahaan: Nahi, maine nahi bataya. Thodi der me chala jaunga.

AJ: Lekin tumhe bata dena chahiye. Bohot time ho chuka hai ghar par sab pareshaan ho rahe honge.

Ahaan: Wo mai sam........

Just then his manager calls AJ that the media has arrived and they have started shooting with their cameras.

AJ: Mujhe kaam hai mai ja raha hun.

Ahaan: Ok!

Everyone assemble for the cake cutting ceremony. Before that media were asking some questions to them.

On the other hand, Revati calls the number she saw on he advertisement of Jindal Restaurant. The manager receives the call.

Revati: Hello!

Manager: Hello! How may Jindal Restaurant help you?

Revati: Dekhiye aap bas meri Jiju se.....I mean AJ se baat kara dijiye.
Manager: Sorry Mam lekin sir abhi busy hai, wo aap se baat nahi kar sakte.

Revati: Aap unhe bataiye ki Revati unse baat karna chahti hai, wo mana nahi karenge.

Manager: I am sorry Mam lekin mai aisa nahi kar sakta.

Revati: Achha thik hai, wahaan Kishore ji ya Vardaan ji koi to honge na, aap unse to meri baat kara dijiye please.

Manager: Achha thik hai, mai dekhta hun (he sees Vardaan and says that Revati is on the call.)

Vardaan: Hello Revati!

Revati: Ha Vardaan ji, wo..

Vardaan: Tum tension mat lo Ahaan yahin hai.

Revati: Mujhe kisi cheez ki tension nahi hai, ab tension aap ko lena hai. Di.. I mean AK ko pata chal gaya hai ki Ahaan wahaan hai, isse pehle ki koi bada hangama ho jaye aap please media waalon ko aane se rok lijiye.

Vardaan: Lekin wo log to aa chuke hai.

Revati: Aap kuchh bhi karke un logon ko bhej dijiye warna jo hoga uski zimmedari meri to nahi.

Vardaan: Tum aise kyun bol rahi ho?

Revati: Abhi ye sab jaanne ka time nahi hai. Di kisi bhi waqt pohonchti hogi. Aap jaldi se kuchh kariye.

Vardaan: Thik hai mai dekhta hun.

Vardaan goes to them and asks AJ to cut the cake ASAP. As soon as they cut the cake without even feeding each other Vardaan sent the media out of the restaurant with the help of security.

AJ: Vardaan, kya kar rahe ho ye sab?

Vardaan: Papa, Revati ka call aaya tha wo bata rahi thi ki.......

" Mr. Akshat Jindal " a voice came from behind.

Everyone look at them. They were shocked to see police along with AK.

AK: Ahaan!!

Ahaan sees her and goes and hugs her.

AK: Aap thik hai na, Ahaan!!

Ahaan: Ha, mai bilkul thik hun.

AJ: Ms. Kapoor? Tum y........

Before AJ could complete his sentence AK smashed the cake that was infront of her on his face. He was startled by the act she dared to do. He wiped his face and decided to question her for this act of hers.

AJ: How dare you?

AK: Jo kaam aapne kiya hai usi se ye kaam karne ki itni himmat aayi hai mujhme. Clear Mr. Jindal??

Inspector: Is ka matlab aapne sahi kaha tha ki aap ka beta yahin hoga.

AK: Ab to aapko koi shak nahi hai na, to ab aap apna kaam kariye.

Inspector: Bina kisi statement ke ham kisi ko arrest nahi kar sakte.

AJ: Aap kise arrest karne aaye hai?

AK: Aapko!!

AJ: What??

AK: Abhi pata chal jayega. Ahaan!! Aap dariye mat sach bataiye aap ko inhone hi kidnap kiya hai na?

AJ: Mai kyun kidnap karunga?

AK: Aap se nahi poocha hai maine(her voice stated her anger)

AK: Ahaan, Dariye mat sach bataiye.

Ahaan: Nahi Mumma, mai yahaan Arya ke saath apni marzi se aaya hun. AJ uncle ne kaha bhi tha ki mai aap ko bata dun lekin maine hi nahi bataya.

AK was shocked listening that.

Inspector: Ye case to yehi khatam ho gaya Ms. AK. Aap ke bete ne hi is baat ka saaf inkaar kar diya hai ki unka kidnap Mr. Jindal ne kiya hai. I think we should leave, you should handle this matter within yourselves.

AK: Thankyou for your time Sir!!

Inspector: It's Ok!

The police men leave. AK passed a deadly glare to her driver who was standing shivering because of fear.

AK(to driver): Ahaan ko ghar lekar jaaiye.

Ahaan: Lekin Mumma....

AK(shouting): Maine kaha Ahaan ko ghar lekar jaaiye warna kal se aap bhi kaam par mat aaiye.

Driver: Nahi, abhi jaata hun.

He takes Ahaan along with him and drove to the house.

AK: Arya andar jaaiye.

Arya: Angel....

AK: Arya maine kaha andar jaaiye.

AJ sees Arya and gestures her to get inside.

Antara: Tumahri himmat kaise huyi yahaan aa kar hamare wedding anniversary par ye sab tamasha karne ki.

AK: Oh really Mrs. Jindal??? Tumhari aukaat nahi hai bina surname ke mere saamne khade tak hone ki aur tum ho ki mujhse hi sawaal kar rahi ho(pointing her finger towards her)

The word "Mrs. Jindal" for the lady he hated the most pricked into his heart.

AK: Ye sab jo kuchh bhi hua hai wo tumhare hi pati ke wajah se hua hai.

AJ: Ahaan ne abhi khud kaha hai na ki maine kuchh nahi kiya hai, tab bhi tum...

AK: Kahungi mai, zaroor kahungi kyunki use yahaan tak aane ke liye bhi aap ne hi influence kiya hoga.

AJ: Mai kyun use influence karunga. Wo khud apni marzi se aaya tha.

AK: Woah!! Ek 5 saal ka bachha apni marzi se school se ek restaurant pohonch gaya even without informing his family. Isn't it strange???

AJ: Calm down!! Mai samajhta hun ki .......

AK: Kya samajhte hai aap? Bataiye hame bhi. Agar mai Arya ko school se apne set par ya apne ghar bina aapke permission ke le jaati to kya tab bhi aap ka yehi "calm down" and "stay at peace" wala reaction hota?

Everyone were calm.

AK: Kyun bolti band ho gayi sab ki. Then why do you expect the same reaction from me?

Antara: Tum kuchh zyaada hi nahi bol rahi ho?

AK: Oh! Ab meri baaton ki quality ko nahi quantity dekhi ja rahi hai. Not bad!!

Antara: Tum apni ye bakwaas band karo aur niklo yahaan se. Ye mere pati ka restaurant hai tumhara set nahi jo tum yahaan apni nautanki karo.

AK: Chali jaungi, mujhe bhi nahi rehna hai" TUMHARE PATI" ke restaurant me(emphasizing more on the Capital words). Lekin usse pehle tumhe ek baat bata deti hun, jo ye tumhare pati hai na agar unke saath tumhe apni baaki ki budhaape wale zindagi sukoon se, mera matlab hai jail ke baahar zindagi guzaarni hai na to apne in pati ko door rakhna teenon se. Agar in teenon se tum inhe door rakhogi na to baaki ki zindagi donon aaram se zinda rahenge.
Pehli- Mere bete Ahaan se, Doosri- Mere kaam se aur teesri mai kabhi batati nahi lekin tumhe bata deti hun kyunki tumhare dimaag me itni aasani se baat nahi aane wali, teesri- Mujhse!!
To yaad rakhna aur apne pati ko sambhal kar rakhna.

Antara: Tum khud ko sambhaalo, kyunki mujhe lagta hai ki tum Akshat me interested ho, wo nahi.

AK: Really?? Itni insecurity?? Nice!! Lekin ek baat mai bata deti hun ki agar mujhe unme 0.00000001% bhi interest hota na to wo is waqt tumhare saath nahi hote. You better know that!!

Everyone were shocked seeing her behaviour. They remembered Revati's words about how they will accept that she's not Guddan.

AK goes and sits on a chair and snatches the phone from a waiter standing next to the table.

AK: Tch, tch, tch!! Kya hai ye? Video quality Bilkul bhi achhi nahi hai (seeing the video he was recording). Arey, aaj kal HD ka zamaana hai aisi video koun dekhega? Mujhse kehte mai apna i phone deti video record karne ke liye. Bohot achhi video aati.

Waiter: Sorry Mam!

AK: Arey sorry kyun bol rahe ho. It's Ok! Uski koi zaroorat nahi hai. Lekin mere ek sawaal ka jawaab do, kya social media par ye likes aur followers se tumhare aur tumhare parivaar ka pet bhar jaayega?

Waiter: No Mam.

AK: Nahi mujhe to laga hota hoga. Matlab hamara to hota hai. Ek ek photo par laakhon kamaate hai. Mujhe laga tum log bhi kama hi lete hoge.

He was in guilt realising his mistake.

AK: Jis chhat ke neeche khade ho usi ke maalik ke saath gaddaari karte hue sharam nahi aayi tumhe. Jis jagah par kaam karte ho, jis kaam ko pooja samajh kar tumhe karna chahiye, jis maalik ko tumhe bhagwan samajh kar poojna chahiye usi ko badnaam karne chale the tum. Waah!! Nice job!!

Waiter: Sorry Mam! Aage se aise kabhi nahi hoga.

AK: Tum mujhse kyun maafi maang rahe ho, mujhe is "sorry" shabd se bhi nafrat hai. Tum mere saamne ye sab kuchh mat karo. Mujhe in sab se koi farak nahi padne wala.

AK was about to leave when she trips over a chair and was about to fall when AJ holds her in time.
They were so close to each other. She whispered a sorry which made him realize that she was drunk and the reason for her behaviour. She straightens herself and turned to leave.

AJ: Pehle khud ko sambhaalna to seekh lo.

AK turned and looked into his eyes to reply.

AK: Saalon se khud ko akele hi sambhaal rahi hun. Kadam dagmagate zaroor hai par utne hi mazboot bhi hai.

She was walking to the door and stops exactly at the door. Without looking at anyone she speaks.

AK: Manager!!

Manager: Yes Mam!

AK: Apne sir se pooch kar saare nuksaan ka bill bhej dijiyega. AK kisi ka hisaab adhoora nahi rakhti!!!

She storms out of the restaurant leaving everyone puzzled with her behaviour.
