Have you all reached Mexico safely?.. Umm.okay... Take care of yourself. Where is Anika? .oh first time she is gone leaving Abhi na. Shut up, his name is Abhi only. She will Normal soon.
Umm. I very well known about you. You just don't trouble her.
Umm.bye
Shakti hung up the call and about to go but stopped hearing shivay's moaning sound.

He slowly opened the door and peeped to found shivay moaning lying on his stomach.
Shakti smirked and jumped on shivay's back.

Aiyoooooo!!! Dad what are you doing?.
Shivay groans in pain.

I'm playing with my son, any problem? * Sitting on his back*

Dad, please get up from me. I.god.maaa

Now why you're calling your mom if she come here then you are gone. She is 78 kg. I'm only 55.

Dad please.shivay winched in pain.

In your childhood how many times I have give you piggy ride. Now you give me piggy ride.

Dad... Shivay hissed in pain.

Grr...shivay. Staying with your mom. You too became boring like her.
Shakti pouted and climbed down from Shivay.
Shivay sighed.

You are going too be much. I'll see you.
Shakti smiles.
Hey Shivay...what happened?
Shakti got panicked seeing tears in shivay's eyes.

Umm.. Nothing dad.
Shivay said, biting his lower lip.

Did I have gained weight? Or you lose weight? Shivay one sec. What is that?

Nothing dad... Shivay immediately pulled his shirt and covered his back.

No, I saw something red in your skin.show me.

Dad. I am saying, na there is nothing! Daddd.

Shut up. Shakthi lifts shivay's t-shirt and got startled seeing his burnt back.
Pinn...
Shivay widens his eyes and swiftly closed Shakti's mouth seeing him calling his mom.
No, please don't call her. If she got to know about this then she would do me oh my matha!
Shivay begged Shakti.

Then tell me how you got these wounds?

Ummm...dad I was walking in one isolated road all of a sudden

All of a sudden one asteroid has come and knocked on your back. Isn't?
Shakti completed and glare shivay.

Ye-yes.dad! Shivay stammers.

Grow up man! You are saying this same lame excuse for almost 15 years.

Dad... I.

Shivay, Say what happened?.. I don't that you going to tell. Pinky!!

Dad.dad Don't call her. I tell you.I tell you
Shivay let out a sigh and told Shakti about how he went to anika's house disguised as shivu
How he named his son and how he got hurt while saving the both from the fire.
Shivay finished his narration and bends his head down without able to look into Shakti's eyes. He expects his dad to a tease or troll from after knowing what he has done, but surprisingly he received a pat on his shoulder from his dad.

Am I dreaming now?
Shivay asked himself in stun, seeing his dad applying medicine on his back without asking a single question.

Da.ddd!!!

Shakti hummed slightly, putting medicine on shivay's back carefully.

Are you okay?

Here who is patient? You are me?
Shakti asked arching his brows.

No.dad... I thought you will tease me after knowing.I
Stop. Why I am going to tease you. Is am a mad?

No.no dad. I didn't mean in that meaning. Usually, you will always try to find a reason for me to tease me, but now

Shivay, usually you would do madness that's why i moke you, but today the matter is different. Today you have saved one newborn baby from the fire, risking your life. (Holding shivay's palm proudly). Do you remember, one day you returned from school holding a little puppy in your arms? I think you are thirteen then. Yours elbow and knee are hurt badly. You said you got saved that puppy from hitting by the truck.
Shivay smiled remembering the incident.
Yeah dad... I remember well. That day Mom was stubborn not to grow the puppy in the house, But somehow you had convinced her and made her to agree.

I regretted a lot for my act later
Shakti sighed.

Why dad? Shivay asked, with a baffled look on his face.

You happily would go to school. That poor puppy got stuck with your mom. She had always used that dog as a lab rat to check her cooking skills.
Poor dog, having named as tiger, it only ate burnt veg foods.
Shivay chuckled.

Today I haven seen that thirteen years old shivay in you. The shivay who loves to go to school on foot with his friends.
The shivay who never thinks to hurt other.the shivay who is ready to sacrifie anything for his loved ones. I badly miss that Shivay... After going to foreign, you changed completely. Your character, behavior everything got changed. But today I fell releifed. My shivay is not gone anywhere. He is still inside yourself *touching his chest* and I am sure that day is not far, that my son would understand all and become as my old shivay.

I won't let that happen, pinky fumed, standing near the door.

Precap- Anika mom🤒
