The inspector steps out of the jeep along with the constable. "Mrs. Poonam Malhotra aapne phone kiya tha" he said

"Yes inspector.. Yeh sab log mere ghar ke aage shor macha rahe hai jisse mere devar ko pareshani ho rahi hai" Poonam informed holding Aarav's hand tightly.

The inspector glanced at Aarav who seems to be scared. "Arrest kijiye inn sabko ek beemar aadmi se kaise pesh aate hai inhe pata nahi hai! They are all trying to harm him" she spoke angrily.

"Shinde daal ek ek ko andar" the inspector ordered and the constables began to hold a few people.

"Are Sir.. humne kuch nahi kiya! Hum toh bas.." they protested

"Shut up.. Ek reputated insaan ke parivar waalo ko pareshan karte hu sharam nahi aati hai tum logo ko?" the inspector shouted.

"Lekin ye ladka paagal hai.. Aap nahi jante 2 saal pehle iski wajah se mere bete ko kitni chot pahuchi thi" the lady yelled.

Poonam hands over the reports to the inspector "yeh reports inspector.. Jisme doctor ne saaf likha hai Aaru ko apne parivar ke pyaar ki zaroorat hai aur do saal pehle wala agression usme ab hai hi nahi... wo ab kisiko harm nahi kar sakta" she informed and the inspector checked the reports.

A car stops and doctor dheer steps out of it. Poonam smiled "aur aap Doctor se bhi reassure kar sakte hai"

The inspector turned and doctor greets him "Inspector Poonamji sach kah rahi hai" he gave more details.

"Andar daal sabko! Mam hum aapki baat pe yakeen karte hai.. Aap befikar hoke inhe andar leke jayie main dekhta hun kaise ye log aapko aapke hi ghar mei ghusne nahi dete hai" the inspector said and takes out his gun.

Poonam walks towards the door taking Aarav with her. The police arrested a few people and other run away from there.

She thanked the doctor for coming over. He smiled and left from there.

Poonam smiles at Nitin and Kavya.

"Aapko kya laga pichli baar ki tarah aap logo ke saamne tamasha karenge aur ise bhej denge mental aslyum? Par aap bhool gaye mere pati aur mere bete ki dhaal banke ye Poonam khadi hai aapke aage.. Abhi toh inn logo ko andar karwaya hai ek din aap logo ko bhi karwaungi" Poonam warned them and gets into the house with the two.

Vikram stared at Nitin and shouted "baaz nahi aayenge na aap log apni harkaton se??" he held his collar and remembers doctor's words that he will never be able to recover to his normal state.

Nitin smirked "kya hua bhatije? Doctor ne wahi kaha na toh maine tumse kaha tha.."

The pain shined in his eyes with his words. They are so shameless that they don't have any regret for their deeds. He jerked him away "baap ka darja diya tha aapko aur aapne itna ganda khel khela mere saath.. Sukhar hai bhagwaan ne aapko apni khudki santan nahi di warna uske saath jaane aap kya kya karte.."

Nitin raised his voice "Vikram..."

"Chillayie mat sach kaha hai Vikram ne.. Aur itna khush hone ki zaroorat nahi hai doctor ne kaha hai Aaru thik ho jayega" Poonam said, Vikram was confused why she is lying but remained silent.

Vikram glances at Kavya and a fear appeared on her face hearing that. She glared at him and smiles trying to hide her real emotions "karlo koshish Poonam.. Pehle bhi tumhe fail kiya tha iss baar bhi karungi"

Nitin held her hand and takes her into the bedroom.

Vikram closes his eyes for a moment and calmed down. He looked around but couldn't find Aarav "ye Aaru kaha gaya.." he said

Poonam rolled her eyes around and then Maria pointed behind the couch. She approaches the direction and finds him hiding as the crowd had really scared him to the core.

Vikram comes and had a sigh of relief seeing him. He touches him but Aarav steps back. Poonam glanced at him "Vikram shayad ye tumhare chillane se aur zyada darr gaya hai.."

"Tum ise upar le jao main kuch khane ke liye laata hun raat bhi nahi khaya tha khana isne" he said and walked to the kitchen.

She smiles at Aarav "chalo upar.." she held his hand and takes him upstairs. She made him sit on the bed.

She touched his face and he assumed she will beat him so he closed his eyes looking scared. She lightly caressed his face "daro nahi.. Sabko bhaga diya maine koi kuch nahi karega" she assured him.

He opened his eyes and glanced at her silently. Vikram entered the room, he hide behind her when Aarav saw him.

He forwards the plate to Poonam "khana khilado ise.. Kal raat se nahi khaya hai kuch isne" he said in concern.

Poonam stared at him "Very bad Vikram.. Tumne kitni zorke chillaya.. Aaru kitna darr gaya hai chalo uthak baithak karo" she said scolding him but in a low tone.

Vikram understands what she was trying to do. He held his ear and began to up and down. Aarav left Poonam's hand and looked at Vikram with a light smile on his face.

"I am sorry.. Agli baar nahi chilaunga main" he said

"Thik hai.. Maaf kiya" Poonam said

She turned to Aarav and began to feed him the food. He ate the food as he had to build a little trust in her seeing the way she protected him and even punished Vikram. She was just following the doctor's advice.

"Chalo.. Ab Aaru acha bacha banega.. Nahayega aur naye kapde pehenga haina Vikram?" she asked eyeing Vikram

"Haa.. ek second" he moved to his wardrobe and opened it. He looked at his clothes and pulled out his favorite trousers and T-shirt.

He showed it to him "Dekho ye tumhara fav hai na?? Aaj hum yeh pehenge thik hai?" he asked with a light smile on his face.

Vikram placed them on the bed, Aarav looked down at them and then eyed up at him. Vikram smiles "pehnna hai na?? Chalo nahate hai.."

He held Poonam's hand tightly. Vikram sighed in disappointment. "Rehendo Vikram.. Tum abhi.." she said sadly

Vikram walked out of the room with tears in his eyes. Poonam gives Aarav's soft toy "tum khelo main abhi aati hun"

He nodded and Poonam walked out of the room. She walked to the corridor and entered her bedroom.

Vikram was sitting on the floor with an album in his hand. He had been flipping the pages and admiring the memories. She sat down beside him, he had felt her presence around him. He smiles sadly "yaadein bhi na kaisi hoti hai Poonam.. Sukoon bhi deti hai aur aaj ke dard ka ehsaas bhi dilati hai"

Poonam kept her hand on his shoulder, he turned to her and broke down in tears "main kya karun Poonam? Mera Aaru paas hai par mujhse bahut door hai.."

She wiped tears from his eyes controlling her own emotions. "Sab thik hoga Vikram.. Yaad hai jab main aayi thi toh mujhe kitne mahine lage they uska dost banne mei?" she asked

He shook his head positively. She placed his head on her shoulder and caressed his head "sab thik ho jayega.. Doctor ne kaha hai na.. Bharosa rakho waqt par"

He held her hand and squeezed it lightly "aaj tumne jo kiya na Poonam wo main bhi nahi kar paata.. Mujhe fakar hai meri biwi mujhse zyada tarakki kar rahi hai" he said softly

She smiles "kaise nahi karti tum aur aaru jo they mere saath hamesha"

He eyed her in confusion, she picks up her phone and shows him a few pictures of her house in Mumbai. The walls were filled with their wedding pictures, trio pictures, and all the lovely moments they shared with each other. He eyed at her, he had seen all these when he came to Mumbai to speak to her.

Vikram closed his eyes for a moment, he said "tumne humhe hamesha apne paas rakha aur maine tumhe..ghar se.."

She kept her hand on his lips "Shh.. kaha na maine wo baatein nahi karenge"

He smiled "I love you Poonam.. Wada karta hun phirse tumpe bharosa na karne ki galti kabhi nahi karunga" he promised her.

She kissed his forehead lightly "mujhe pata hai mera Vikram apna koi bhi wada nahi todega.." she said

Her phone rings, and she picked it up "hello.. Haan? Thik hai' she ends the call after a while.

Vikram asked "kya hua?"

"Bahut urgent kaam hai Vikram mujhe office jaana hoga" she said

"Haan toh jao na Aaru ke liye main hoon yahan" Vikram assured her he will handle him.

"Thik hai.. Aur agar tumse nahi sambhale toh mujhe turant call kar dena" Poonam spoke and Vikram agreed. She chances to her formals and left the house.

Vikram closed the album and got up. He placed it into the wardrobe and walked towards Aarav's room to check him up. He stood at the door and saw him playing with the car. He tried to move it but it didn't move. Vikram looked around and found the remote of it. He presses the button and the car moves. Aarav snaps back at it, the car moved around him and a light smile appears on his face. Aarav turned towards the door but Vikram hide from him as he didn't want to stop playing and get scared of him. Aarav focus on the car and Vikram enjoys moving the car with the remote for him.
