SCHOOL,

AK arrived at the school and got tensed when didn't find the children in the waiting arena. She went inside to look for them. Finding them no where, she was about to go back to the car when she sees a crowd in the adjacent corridor. She went near to them and sees Arya standing among the crowd. As Arya sees AK, she hugs her and started crying.

AK: Arya! Princess, kya hua? Aap ro kyun rahi hai?

Arya: Angel, wo Ahaan....

AK: Ahaan, kahaan hai wo? Kya hua use?

Arya: Wo washroom me lock ho gaya hai aur darwaza nahi khul raha hai.

AK: Kya??? Ye sab kaise ho gaya?

Arya: Wo washroom gaya tha aur usne mujhe wait karne ke liye kaha tha aur jab wo waapas nahi aaya to mai yahaan dekhne aa gayi aur pata chala ki wo lock ho gaya hai.

AK was shocked listening that and wasn't even able to comprehend how to tackle the situation.

She moved towards the glass wall to have a glance of her son but nothing was visible. She listened the banging of the door made by Ahaan which frightened her more.

AK: Ahaan!! Aap bilkul bhi tension mat lijiye, Mumma yahin hai.

Ahaan: Mumma!! Mujhe yahaan se baahar nikaliye, mujhe andar bohot dar lag raha hai.

AK: Ahaan, aap mere brave bete ho na to aise darte nahi hai. Mumma hai na yahaan, wo aapko safely bahaar nikaal dengi. Aap bas himmat rakhiye.

Ahaan: Mumma jaldi, please....

AK looked around for something that could help her but finding nothing she was frustrated. She looked at the people there as they were standing idly without trying to help a child.

AK: Aap log bas khade ho kar tamasha dekhte rahiye. Ek chhota bachha andar phasa hua hai lekin aap me se koi kuchh help bhi nahi kar raha hai. Aap jaise logon se na baat karna hi bekaar hai mujhe hi kuchh karna hoga.

She looked at the glass window behind her as it showed the parking lot with a number if vehicles parked there. As she sees a scooty there, a scene of her show flashed infront of her eyes.

AK: Mujhe wo scooty abhi andar chahiye.

She said pointing to the vehicle in the parking lot to one of the staff members.

AK: I said now!!

Seeing no moment from them she ordered in a loud voice.

AK: Ahaan, beta aap Mumma ko sun sakte hai na?

She asked going towards the narrow glass wall of the washroom.

Ahaan: Mumma....

His voice was low and shivering depicting how much he was afraid of the situation.

AK: Ahaan, be brave. Aise darte nahi hai. Aap please andar door lock kar ke rehna jab tak mai aap se baahar aane ke liye nahi kehti.

Ahaan: Nahi Mumma. Mujhe bohot dar lag raha hai.

AK: Ahaan, app Mumma ke super champ ho na, aise darte nahi. Aap andar jaaiye mai bas thodi der me aapkl wahaan se baahar nikal dungi. I promise.

AK wears the helmet and ignites the engine of the scooty. Accelerating it with full speed she came infront of the glass wall. The scene where it was shown that AK has gone breaking a glass wall in one of her shows was actually shot by a stunt professional but here she had to do that herself to save her son. She pulls down the wind shield of the helmet and moved back from her actual position. She accelerated and moved forward with high speed chanting "Jai Lord Krishna " and succesfully broke the glass wall and entered the washroom. Her arms and feet were badly scratched due to the glass and even her face had some bruises but all that she cared now was about her son. Dusting off the glass remnants from her body, she knocked on the only closed door of the washroom which revealed Ahaan's fearful and tear stricken face. Seeing his mother, he was relieved and hide herself in her arms crying out loud due to the extreme fear residing in him.

AK: Shh, Mumma aa gayi hai na ab sab thik hai.

She said trying to console him but he started crying more. She picked him up in her arms and made her way towards her car. Arya smiled seeing her friend safe and sound and followed her. AK made him sit outside on the bench and kneel down in front of him trying to separate him from her frame but he wasn't letting her do. She slightly pushed him and made him drink water and wiped her tears. Seeing him crying, she couldn't control her own tears as she felt guilty for being the reason of his condition.

AK: I am sorry.

She mumbled wiping his tears, bringing her face closer to his as their noses touched. He looked up at his mother's face which clearly depicted love and concern for him. He wiped his tears and connected his lips with hers after whispering "I love you".

JINDAL BHAVAN,

AK reached the home with Ahaan in her arms as he was still afraid with the incident. Everyone awaited for their arrival as the news broke through the viral videos circulating on social media and other platforms by the grace of the people who were enjoying recording the video of a frightened, helpless boy and his mother who was trying to save him rather than helping them. As they entered, everyone started their unending questions which made him more frightened as he clutched his mother tighter and hid his face in her neck. Sensing her fear, she assured everyone with her expressions and made her way to his room as Durga took Arya to her room to give the mother-son privacy.

As soon as AK tried to separate from him he clutched her tighter as if his life was dependent on her. Giving her a kiss on his head assuring his safety, she made him stand in the washroom and tried to go out but he held her hand firmly tears brimming in his eyes. She helped him to get freshen up and made him lay down on the bed.

AK: Aap aaram kijiye, mai aapke khane ke liye kuchh lekar aati hun.

After giving a kiss on his forehead, she got up from the bed but he held her hand tightly pleading her not to go.

Ahaan: Mumma please mat jaaiye, mujhe bohot dar lag raha hai.

AK: Mai bas ek minute me waapas aa jaungi. Aap ko darne ki bilkul zaroorat nahi hai, aap ghar par hai bilkul safe.

He shook his head and held her hand close to his heart, closing his eyes.

Revati: I am here with Ahaan's favourite hot chocolate and Vanilla cupcakes.

She said excitedly to divert his attention to his favourite food but he just gave a sad smile.

AK fed him which he unwillingly had some just for his mother. She tried to make him sleep so that he could forget that even just for a while but he was not feeling sleepy due to the fear still in him.

AK: Matlab ab aap meri baat nahi maanenge aur nahi soyenge?

Ahaan nodded and she pouted showing her fake anger. He sat on her lap asnd and kissed her pout giving her a reason to smile. She wrapped her arms around him protectively and kisses his cheeks.

AK: Thik hai, agar aapko neend nahi aa rahi hai to mai aapko ek story sunaati hun. Sunna hai aapko.

He nodded excitedly adjusting himself in her lap as he rested his head on her front while playing with her rings on her fingers as she rested her chin on his head.

AK: Ek baar ek Mummy ke tummy me na ek chhota sa baby tha....

Ahaan: Mujhse bhi chhota?

AK: Haa tumse bhi chhota. Wo Arya ka pink teddy dikh raha hai na bilkul us tarah.

She said pointing towards one of the teddies placed on the rack.

Ahaan: Oh, wo bhi bilkul cute hoga na us teddy ki tarah.

AK: Haa. Pata hai ek din kya hua tha, wo Mumma car ke andar lock ho gayi thi aur baahar hi nahi nikal paa rahi thi, use bohot dar lag raha tha kyunki usse apne baby ke liye bohot dar lag raha tha.

He shivered slightly remembering the morning incident with him. Sensing his fear, she tightened her grip around him and pulled closer to her.

AK: Lekin pata hai jitna dar use baby ke liye lag raha tha na, wo baby ke wajah se utni hi strong hoti jaa rahi thi. Wo baby uski weakness nahi, uski strength thi. To phir usne usi strength ko use kiya aur car ke window ko apne haathon se tod diya.

Ahaan: Us baby ki Mumma ko bohot pain hua hoga na?

AK: Pain to hua tha lekin jab unhe pata chala ki Baby bilkul safe hai, to wo itni khush ho gayi ki wo apna pain hi bhul gayi.

Ahaan: Uski Mumma bohot strong hai.

She smiled and turned him towards her cupping his face.

AK: Kyunki uski strength aap ho.

Ahaan: Mai?

AK: Haa aap. Pata hai wo baby koun tha? Aap the....

Ahaan: Aur uski Mumma matlab aap.

She nodded with tears in her eyes as the incident was flashing infront of her eyes.

AK: Aap meri strength ho Ahaan, aap hai to mai hun. Aap aise weak nahi pad sakte. Jis tarah aap mujhe strong banate hai aapko khud ko bhi utna strong banna padega, mere liye.

He caressed the slightly faded scar of the past incident and the fresh bruises of her hand and gently kissed it.

Ahaan: I promise Mumma, mai aapka strong beta ban kar dikhaunga. Kisi se nahi darunga bilkul brave ban kar rahunga.

She engulfed him in a hug trying to give him the confidence he needed while easing her heartache caused due to remembering the past incidents.

She made him sleep as she sang a lori for him while all this was observed by AJ who came back from the restaurant listening to the news. He wanted to meet Ahaan but when he found AK narrating a story he didn't interrupted their moment as he stood there witnessing their moment. She covered him properly with the quilt and kissed his forehead to get up while he immediately moved from there not letting her know that he was there.

She came out of the room and slightly locked the door. Arya immediately came to her and hugged her.

Arya: Ahaan kaisa hai?

She asked, her voice laced with concern.

AK: Bilkul thik hai, so raha hai. Aap bhi rest kar lijiye.

Arya smile listening about her friend's condition and ran back to her mother's room.

AK looked at the security she hired for Ahaan's safety.

AK: Aap logon ko maine apni shakal dikhane ke liye hire kiya hai!!

She yelled at them as her voice laced with anger.

AK: Kal se aap log Ahaan ke saath uske school bhi jaayenge. Use ek pal ke liye bhi akela nahi chhodenge.

They nodded their head in approval.

AK'S ROOM,

AK was speaking to Karan Ahuja regarding the incident that happened with Ahaan today and it's connection with the accident case as it happened soon after the day the truck driver got arrested.

Revati: Di!

Revati entered the room with dinner and placed it on the table serving her.

AK: Thanks! Bohot bhook lagi thi.

Revati: Itne saalon me pehli baar sun kar achha lag raha hai.

They both sat and ate in silence for a while.

Revati: Kya hua? Aap itni pareshaan kyun hai?

AK: Kuchh nahi, bas aise hi.

Revati: Ahaan ke baare me soch rahi hai na?

She nodded silently having her food.

Revati: Kuchh pata chala ki ye sab... I mean aap Karan Bhai se kuchh baat kar rahe the na.

AK: Ham donon ko lagta hai ki ye usi ne kiya hai jisne wo accident karwaya tha kyunki use ye baat zaroor pata chal hi gayi hogi ki usne jis se wo accident  karwaya tha wo already arrest ho chuka hai.

Revati: To ab hame kaise pata chalega ki wo koun hai jisne ye sab karwaya hai?

AK: Antara ne.

Revati: Kya?? Antara? Aap ko kaise pata chala? Us truck driver ne bataya?

AK: Nahi, jab Karan (Ahuja) ne investigation karke us truck driver ke baare me pata lagaya to pehle wo uske custody me tha. Usne wo letter Karan ko diya jisme paison ke saath use ye accident karne ka order mila tha. Kal  Karan ne mujhe milne ke liye bulaya aur wo letter dikhaya aur wo writing Antara ki hi thi.

Revati: Lekin wo ye sab kyun kar rahi hai? Kahin use ye to nahi pata chal gaya ki aap hi Guddan Di hai?

AK: Mujhe to nahi lagta ki use ye sab pata hai kyunki agar use pata hota to wo seedha mujhse confront karti kyunki ab to uske paas poore rights bhi hai as she is Mrs. Antara Akshat Jindal.

Revati: Thik hai maan bhi lete hai ki use ye sab nahi pata lekin wo apni hi beti Arya ka accident kyun karwayegi?

AK: Usne sirf Ahaan ke accident ka plan  banaya tha, Arya to unfortunately us car me thi.

Revati: Ye Antara itna sab kuchh kar ke itne aaram se kaise reh sakti hai. Kya Jiju ko in sab ke baare me pata hai?

AK: Pata hi hoga. Kya pata wo uska saath bhi de rahe ho.

Revati: Di, ye kaisi baatein kar rahe hai aap? Jiju Ahaan se utna hi pyaar karte hai na jitna aap Arya se karti hai. Wo Ahaan ke saath aisa karne ke baare me soch bhi nahi sakte aur agar unhe Antara ke is kartoot ke baare me pata hota to wo uska saath bhi nahi dete.

AK: Revati, tum phir se...

Her sentence was interrupted by the notification tone of her phone. She checked her inbox to find the CCTV footage of the school where Antara was shown giving some money to one of the workers who inturn helped in locking the washroom's main door when no one was inside other than Ahaan. She requested Karan Ahuja to help her with the case as he somehow managed to get the footage through his sources. She fumed in anger as their doubts got confirmed. She sat down and drank the whole glass of water to calm herself.

AK: Man to kar raha hai abhi uski jaan le lun.

She said taking deep breaths to control her anger.

Revati: Di, aap logon ke paas to abhi saboot bhi hai to aap log case file karke use arrest kyun nahi kara dete?

AK: Arrest?

She chuckled sarcastically.

AK: Taaki phir wo police ko chakma de kar bhaag jayega. Ab to uska permanent ilaaj hi ho kar rahega. Der se hi sahi par saari uljhane khatam hone ke baad use aisi saza dungi ki doobara wo kuchh kar hi na sake. Lekin abhi usne jo kiya hai uske liye us ka temporary treatment to banta hai. Kaanoon ke tariqe se na sahi, Guddan ke tariqe se to zaroor.

Revati: Kya karne wali hai aap?

AK: Tum bas dekhti jaao. Use wahi dard, wahi dar mehsoos nahi karaya jo Ahaan ko uski wajah se ho raha tha to mera naam bhi Gudd..... AK nahi.

She stormed out of the room while Revati giggled seeing her Guddan's avatar erupting from inside her.

Revati: Pehle apna ek naam to decide kar lijiye Di.

ANTARA'S ROOM,

It was midnight and everyone was fast asleep in their respective rooms exceptone person who was so restless because of the fire of revenge burning inside her. As soon as AK sees Antara waking up from her sleep and lazily walking towards the washroom, she silently stood from her sitting position and moved towards the washroom's door when Antara entered inside. She held the handle of the door smiling and locked it silently making sure that she doesn't create any noise.

AK (thinking): Mere bete ko washro me lock kiya tha na ab pata chalega ki washroom ke andar rehne me kaisa lagta hai. Good night and have horrible dreams!

She made sure that the lock couldn't be opened and the door of her room was locked from inside so that no one could her voice outside the room. She went towards the window from where she entered and was hiding behind the curtain. She jumped out of the window and locked it too.

She carefully walked along the living room and then on the corridor towards her room making sure she doesn't wake up anyone and was looking here and there when she bumped into someone. Before she could fell down, she closed her eyes in fear and clutched whatever she could get in her hands. She slightly opened her eyes when she felt a pair of arms around her waist and the presence of him. She looked at him as he looked more handsome as his hair locks fell on his forehead and his spectacles were on rest, no more covering his eyes in which she could drown with love for eternity .

AJ: Itni raat ko tum yahaan kya kar rahi ho?

He spoke bringing out of her trance as she stood up straight and looked away flustered.

AK (thinking): Kahin ye apni patni ke liye maseeha ban kar use bachane to nahi aa gaye.
