He turns but no one was there.

He went to the person.. "bhaisab aap jis aadmi se baat kar rahe they wo kaha gaya..."

Person said "arrey bahut hi gusse wala aadmi tha abhi gaya bahar.."

Vineet went to search, he was looking here and there. He saw a person back, he went to him and turned him and smiled tears rolled his eyes so did the person..

Vineet uttered "Aarav"

Behind all were looking for Vineet..

Manav saw Vineet and said "maasi wo rahe chachu chachu..." he shouts... "Vineet chachu..."

Vineet turns...

Angel said "bhai chalo na"

Vineet tried to share his happiness "Angel wo Aarav" Vineet turns back to Aarav but he disappeared "Aarav" he looks all come there...

Manav asked "chachu kisse dhundh rahe ho.. aur aap yaha kya kar rahe ho.."

Vineet just sighed "kuch nahi chalo..." his pov "yeh mera wahem tha ya Aarav tha wo nahi mera weham nahi tha wo Aarav hi tha wo matlab 3 saal se Aarav delhi mei hai mujhe pahuchna hai uss tak baat karni hai ek baar..."

Angel found him lost and asked "bhaiya kaha kho gaye aap?"

Vineet said "nahi kuch nahi chalo.." they leave..

Hotel's room

Manav sleeps so does Avni. Vineet calls someone.."haan kaha ho tum abhi aachi baat hai ek kaam hai pata lagana hai kisi ka thik hai ek din hai tumhare pass.."

He cuts the phone, his phone rings... it is Ruhana

He picked it up "hello.."

Ruhana asked "hello kaise ho tum?"

Vineet answered her 'zinda hun.. thik hu"

Ruhana sighed and said "tum aisa kyu keh rahe ho? Avni kaisi hai?"

Vineet said "thik hai soh rahi hai.. aaj bahut tak gayi thi bahut hi shaitaani ki.."

Ruhana smiled "tum bhi bache ban gaye honge unke saath"

Vineet said happily "haan aaj maine Aar.." he paused.

Ruhana asked "tumne kya?"

Vineet just sighed " nahi kuch nahi Avni abhi soh gayi hai.. kal baat karwa dunga usse"

Ruhana said "thik hai" she was about to end the call when she heard "Ruhana"

Ruhana said instantly "haan"

Vineet wanted to share his feelings but let it be.. "nahi kuch nahi.." and he cuts the call...

Ruhana was confused "isko kya hua?"

Next day

They gathered when Vineet said "aap sab aaj jayie meri tabiyat kuch thik nhi lag rahi"

Angel asked in concern "kya hua aapko?

Vineet said "Angu bas thoda aaram karunga toh thik ho jaunga.. shyam ko milta hoon tumse"

"thik hai" Angel was doubting since yesterday Vineet was behaving wired.

Saransh said "mumma chalo na"

Angel nodded "haan chalo"

Vineet murmured "sorry Angel jhooth bola tumse" his phone rings "haan bolo kaha aata hun main"

Vineet meet someone..

Vineet asked impatiently "haan kya pata chala"

Person said "saab Aarav sir gandhi nagar ke ek flat mei rehte hai wo yaha matlab delhi cid mein inspector hai.."

Vineet was shocked "kya? Matlab Aarav ne apna transfer yaha karwa liya tha acp sir ko yeh baat pata thi unhone sab chupaya aur raghu pata hai tumhe kaha wo iss waqt.." he asked.

Raghu nodded "haan saab wo delhi mei wo koi ek killer hai usko pakadne gaye hai wo akele."

Vineet sighed and mocked anger "akele aadat gayi nahi uski thanks yeh le tera paisa.."

Raghu denies "nahi saab.. aapun aapse aapke bhai ka pata lagane ka paisa nahi lega"

Vineet smiles... raghu gives him address and leaves..

Vineet said to himself "aa raha hoon main aache se khabar lunga tumhari.."

At unknown place

Some goons were there and Aarav was also there.

Boss: cid wale bhi kamaal hai bas ek ko hi beja...

Aarav smiled and said "tujhe pakadne ke liye main akela hi kaafi hun"

Boss smirked "mujh tak tab aaoge jab... inn sabse bachoge" and the fight starts. Aarav was fighting with them someone was about to attack him from behind but the person was on floor in a second Aarav turned was shocked to see Vineet standing in front of him.

Vineet shouted "Aarav bacho.." Aarav bent down and Vineet throw the container behind him at the person. They together fought with the goons. Aarav fights with the main culprit..

Aarav said.. "bas ab tere gunah khatam..." he beats him badly. Other officers arrived.

Deepak one of the officer said "Aarav chodo use wo mar jayega" Aarav left him and he was taken.

Aarav and Vineet were only there. Aarav starts to leave but Vineet holds Aarav's hand and pulled him back in front of his eyes. Vineet glanced at him and slapped hard on his face.

Aarav looked back at him shockingly "Vineet" he uttered..

Vineet shouted at him "ab yaad aaya Vineet haan?? 3 saal se nhi yaad tha ye Vineet" he was so much frustrated with him.

Aarav remained silent, Vineet continued shouting at him "bina kuch kahe bin kuch sune chale gaye tum haan kyun??" holding him harsh by his shoulder and demanded answers from him "jawab do mujhe"

Aarav jerked him away "Vineet please chale jao mujhe koi baat nhi karni hai tumse main nhi chahta firse mere karan tum kuch khodo"

Vineet said harshly "kho toh main sab chukka hun Aarav apna pyar.. apna dost sab.."

Aarav was stunned and asked "tum aur Ruhana saath nahi ho?"

Vineet smiled in pain "tumhe kya lagta hai? Tumhare jaane se mere aur Ruhana ke beech sab thik ho jayega haan?" he then shouted "nahi Aarav nahi maine apna bacha apni laparwahi ki wajah se khoya tha"

Aarav looked at him and said in loud tone "Vineet... tum jitna bhi kehlo sab ki suruwad meri uss ek faise se hui thi Manav mujhse door ho gaya Manvi.. bhi mujhse door hoti chali gayi sabko yahi lagta hai ki main nahi bachana chata tha Manav ko jaanbuch kar kaha maine wo sab haan uss waqt Manvi ko bas apna beta dikha aur kuch nahi... mujhe duty ko bhi dekhna tha ek cid officer ho kar mei wo kaise kar sakta tha usey zarasa bhi bharosa nahi tha mujhpar mai koi na koi rasta nikal hi leta..."

Vineet asked him with his firm tone "kab nikalte Aarav tum rasta haan.. jab wo log Manav ko maar dete?"

Aarav looked at him and said "Vineet mujhe ab koi baat nahi karni hai waise bhi Manav ke liye uska pita zinda hai hi nahi tum chale jao jeene do mujhe mere haal par..." and left.

Vineet shouted "Aarav suno please" but he leaves. Vineet hits his hand on the wall in anger and goes back to hotel.

He entered inside his room and all were present there.

Vinee was surprised "tum log.."

Angel smiled "haan bhai aaj jaldi khatam hua to hum aa gaye tum kaha chale gaye they?" she questioned him.

Vineet does not want to tell her about Aarav at the moment so he lied "main wo tehelne gaya tha bore ho gaya tha baithe baithe"

Avni said "papa mummy se baat karni hai.."

Vineet smiled "haan main bhool gaya tha abhi karwata hun..."

At Manvi house

Manvi Ruhana and Sachin were there. Manvi said "Ruhana bachcho ki bahut yaad aa rahi hai"

Sachin spoke up "mujhe to Angel ki aa rahi hai"

Ruhana hits him lightly and said "tumhe to har time hi aati hai.."

Then Ruhana's phone rings...

Manvi asked "kiska phone hai.."

Ruhana said "Vineet.."

Manvi smiled.. "oh karo baat.."

Ruhana picks the phone.. hello..

"mumma.." she heard Avni's voice.

Ruhana smiled "Avni kaisi ho beta aap?"

Avni said with a smile "main to achi hoon mumma papa mera bahut khayal rakhte hai".

Manvi also wanted to talk to her "mujhe doh phone"

Ruhana looked at her "haan Avni badi mummy se baat karo" she gives the phone..

Manvi smiled "hello Avni.."

Avni said happily " badi mummy.. kaisi ho aap?"

Manvi replied "mai toh bahut hi achi hun tum..?"

Avni looked at Manav who was signaling her.. "aachi hun lo bhaiya se baat karo" she gives him the phone.

Manav said "hello mom"

Manvi smiled "kaisa hai mera Manav?"

Manav answered her "mai thik hun mujhe kya hoga but I miss you mom please aa jao yahan"

Vineet gets happy and he shouted so that Manvi could hear "haan Manvi aa jao bahut maza aa raha hai..."

Manvi smiled "aww.. beta mai bhi aana chahti hun par kaam"

Vineet takes the phone.. "Manvi.. kaam toh hota rahega bacho ke saath waqt bitaneka ek yahi mauka milta hai tum aaogi toh Manav ko kitna aacha lagega plz.. salukhe saab mana thodi karenge"

Angel looked at Vineet with doubt and her pov: Manav zid kare toh samaz aata hai par Vineet kyu? aur yeh gaya kaha tha kuch toh gadbad hai nahi Angel bekar mei shak kar rahi hai.."

Manvi said "Vineet mai dekhti hun.."

Manav takes the phone.. "mom plz aajao na plz mai aapka intezar karunga"

Manvi said "thik hai main aapke nanu se baat karungi"

Manav smiled and gives phone to Angel. Angel says "Manvi sab bachche thik hai yahan aur wo bada bacha kahi pareshan to nhi kar raha?"

Manvi laughed, Sachin took the phone "I am not a kid"

Angel smiled.. "haan pata hai.. lo Saransh se baat karo bada utawla ho raha hai tumse baat karne ko"

She hands the phone to Saransh and they talk, after sometime he ends the call.

Ruhana asked Manvi "kya hua?"

Manvi said "wo Manav zid kar raha hai aur Vineet bhi keh raha hai.."

Ruhana smiled and said "haan acha hai na chali jao.."

Sachin also said "haan chali jao Manvi Avni ke pass uske papa hai aur Saransh ke pass uski maa bas Manav hi.. "

Manvi looked.. "hmm thik hai.."
