Sid went in his room and kept his bag on study table and phone on charging. He went in washroom to get freshen up. He came out in a comfortable outfit and decided to read some novel for sometime. He was not on any social media platform so he didn't have something to scroll on phone.

He laid down on bed and started reading but he ended up sleeping in sometime. He woke up in the evening and checked the time. It was almost 6:30. He was feeling thirsty. He went near his study table where his water bottle was kept. He took his bottle and started drinking water when he saw something and frowned. He took up the consent slip kept on table.

Sid: Shit!!! No

He whispered. He remembered he had to call his father now and he really didn't wish to. He made a crying face. He had no other option so he removed his phone from charging and opened call logs. After fighting with himself for at least fifty times, he sighed. He knew there was no way out of this and he had to call him. So let's just get done over this. He slided his father's name on screen and dialed his number.

He always longed for his father's attention deep inside though he never accepted it but today he was somewhere really wishing that his father to be busy with his office work and didn't take his call.

While on the other hand, Ishaan came out getting fresh and was checking some mails. Riya was busy preparing dinner for them. Since the time Sid left, she had been taking extra care of her husband. Making his favorite food, wearing his favorite dresses, trying to do everything that would make him happy. Trying to get all his attention. Ishaan was trying to give her time but was most of the time worried about Sid.

He cared for both his wife as well as son but was never able to show it to any of them leading to every relationship getting spoiled. This was leading Sid and Riya to blame each other for their spoiled relationships with Ishaan and having bitter feelings towards each other.

Ishaan's phone rang. He thought it must be some office call as usual. Some more work for him. He got irritated listening his phone's ringtone. He picked up his phone from table cursing his boss. But as soon as he picked up the phone and saw the Collar I'd, all his irritation was immediately gone.

He was happy to see his only son calling him. But then he frowned knowing Sid would never call him on his own. He got really worried. All kind of bad thoughts started coming to him. Unwillingly he was thinking about all thr bad things that could have happened to his son.

On the other side, Sid was thinking he might be busy because he was not picking the phone. He got hurted his father has no time for him. Although he didn't want to talk to him but it did hurt him thinking his father had no time for him. He cut the call before Ishaan could pick up.

Sid: Achha hua nhi uthaya. Mein to waise bhi baat nhi karna chahta tha. Aur na hi mujhe iss bakwaas si trip par jaane ka mann hai. It's good he didn't pick up

He said consoling his own self and decided to go for an evening stroll and weather was really pleasant.
