Manvi was sitting on the bed, she had a picture in her hand. It was of hers and Vineet's picture. She moved her fingers on his face and tears slipped down her eyes "Dad! Mera bharosa aaj fir toot gaya mere bete ne bhi dhoka de diya mujhe Dad kyun har koi aapki tarah mujhe pyar karne wala nahi hai? Kyun Dad?" she complained.

"Manav ke bharose baithi thi main wo mujhe insaf dilayega, main fail ho gayi Dad usko imandar aapke jaise nahi bana paayi main" she cried.

Manav knocked the door "maa please darwaza kholo"

Manvi shouted "Manav mujhe tujhse koi baat nhi karni hai just leave me alone"

Manav sighed and moved out of the house. Manav was at the police station, the commissioner called him in into the cabin.

He entered inside "Aapne bulaya sir"

Commissioner said "baitho Manav baat karni hai tumse"

Manav sits, commissioner asked "kya hua? Itne pareshan kyun ho?"

"Anoop dadu, maa ne mujhe wo bataya jisse jaanke main hil gaya hoon main toh unke pyar ki nishani nahi ek insan ki zabarasti.." he paused and a tear escaped his eyes.

Anoop moved to him and said "Manav beta, aisa kahke tum Manvi ko aur dukhi kar rahe ho kya tumhe maloom hai tum apne pita jaise dikhte ho?"

Manav was shocked "kya?"

Anoop nods yes "haan tumhari shakal Aarav jaisi hai lekin kya kabhi usne tumhe nafrat bhari nighao se dekha? Nahi beta usne toh chah ki usey jo dard mila uska tum badla lo apne baap ki tarah galat raste pe kabhi nhi chalo" he explained.

Manav remained silent and just left from there. He came back home, Manvi was still inside the room. He got the spare key and opened the door.

He moved in, Manvi was sitting on bed. He moved to her, he got on his knees. His eyes were filled with tears "maa mujhe nahi pata tha ki main uske jaisa dikhta hoon joh aapke dard ki wajah hai"

Manvi looked at him, he held her hand and said "baat karo maa mujhse daant lo chahe toh maarlo aise khamosh mat raho"

Manvi did not speak anything but tears brimmed down her eyes. He kept his head on her lap and said with teary voice "aap jaisa chahti ho waisa hoga maa main kabhi rishwat nhi lunga ek honest cop banunga I promise"

"Vade mat karna Manav, khoon toh Aarav ka hi hai tummei kya pata uski tarah tum bhi jhoothe waade kar rahe ho" Manvi said in anger and pushed him.

She moved out of the room, Manvi followed her and said "maa aisa mat kaho main aapka sacha beta hoon jhootha nhi"

Manvi looked at him and shouted "dekh liya maine tum kitne sache ho aur kitne jhoothe"

Manav wiped his tears, he brought the bundle of notes "yeh hai na jo mujhe jhootha banate hai" he threw them on the floor and then burned them.

Manvi was shocked, Manav said with tears in his eyes "maa aise mat rutho apne bete se lo maine jala diya yeh paisa"

He moved to her and held her hand "main wada karta hoon maa aapse sabkuch wapas lunga main uss insan se aur apne haatho se usko hatkadi lagaunga"

Manvi was in tears "sach mein?" she asked.

Manav nods in yes, Manvi hugged him tightly. Manav said "bas maa ab wo insan royega jisne tumhe rulaya, tumhe itna dard diya"

They seperate from the hug, Manvi said "itna aasan nhi hai Manav, wo jo bhi karta hai koi saboot nhi milta"

Manav smiled a bit "ab milega maa main saboot ikhata karunga uss insan ko aapke kadmo mein laake daalunga main"

Manvi wiped off her tears. She kissed his forehead "sambhalke karna"

He assured her he will be fine.

Manav moved to police station, he meet Anoop and asked about details of Aarav.

Anoop said "Manav, Aarav ne pichle 22 saalo mein itni smugglings ki hai ki he had became most dangerous man of the mumbai, mumbai ki police ko uspe shaq toh hai par uske khilaf koi saboot nhi milta, murder kidnapping drugs supply yeh sab wo naak ke neeche karta hai"

Manav was in anger "aisa insan mera baap hai!" he sat on the chair holding his head.

"Paisa insan ko kya se kya bana deta hai Manav" Anoop said.

Manav looked at him and asked "kaha milega wo insan?"

"Apna janamdin mana raha hoga mumbai se bade hotel mein" Anoop spoke up.

Manav smiled "toh aaj unhe tohfa toh dena chahiye" he got up.

Anoop spoke up "Manav all the best"

Manav nods, he saluted him and left.

Manav came back home, he was surprised to see Manvi packing his stuff. He hugged her from behind "maa.."

Manvi pats his cheek "Anoop uncle ne phone karke bataya ki tum mumbai jaa rahe ho.. Toh isliye ki tumhari packing"

He turned her around and saw some kind of tension on her face. He asked "kyun pareshan ho?"

"Mujhe darr lag raha hai Manav, agar uss insan ne tumhe kuch kar diya toh? Mera badla agar usne tumse liya toh?" she said with fear.

Manav nods "aisa kuch nhi hoga maa bharosa hai na mujhpe?" he asked.

Manvi shook her head in yes "tumpar hai Manav par uss insan pe nahi hai" she said with her eyes getting moist. 

Manav said "kuch nahi hoga" Manvi smiled a bit. Manav picked up the bag and left from there. Manvi was in tears.

She composed herself, she thought "Aarav aa raha hai mera beta tumse badla lene"

Mumbai 

Hotel Taj, many people were there. Manav was in waiter disguise. People talked "Arey Aarav Malhotra ki party hai shabab sharab toh hoga hi"

Manav sighed and fumed in anger. Few dancers were dancing, just then someone said "Aarav aa gaya"

Manav looked and was shocked seeing him. Aarav entered inside wearing black glasses and had a wicked smile on his face.

Manav thought "main toh sach mein inke jaisa hi dikhta hoon" 

A girl approached him, he removed his glasses and smiled at her "hey.. Beautiful where is my birthday gift?" he asked her.

The girl whispered in his ear "I am all yours tonight" with a smirk on her face.

He kept his hand on her waist and walked ahead. He passed by Manav who fumed in anger.

The party was over, guests began to leave. Aarav settled on the chair and people were around him, he lighted the cigarette and eyed at his people.

"Boss yeh hai collection aaj ka" he presented the suitcase in front of him.

He smirked "Great!"

"Boss hamara ek truck pakda gaya hai police ki hirasat mein hai" the another said.

"Chutt jayega.. Lekin uss driver ko khatam kar dena koi saboot nhi chahiye peeche mujhe" he said with a smile.

Just then Shiv entered inside and informed him "Aarav aaj ka consignment ready hai"

"Shiv send it aur wo jo truck haath laga hai usko chuda ab toh ACP ban gaya hai tu bahut power hai tere haatho mein" He said with a smile on his face.

"Ho gaya hai tera kaam" he replied.

Manav thought "Shiv.. ye naam suna hai maine" he then remembered "haan maa ne bataya tha yeh Shiv koi khaas aadmi lagta hai.. Mil gaya rasta Aarav tak pahuchne ka"

Just then a lady entered inside, Aarav removed his glasses and glanced at her. She was in a red gown looking beautiful. The lady smiled at him.

Shiv moved to her and said "kaha tha na maine car mein hi rehna"

She said in anger "tumne bhi kaha tha 5 minute mein aa rahe ho" and left from there.

Aarav got up and eyed all "meeting over!" everyone left.

"Sun godown jaake check kar raat jo maal aaya wo sahi hai ki nhi" Aarav ordered Shiv.

Shiv agreed and left, Aarav moved towards his home.

He unlocked the door and then heads to the room. He was shocked seeing the lady inside the room, she was the one who came with Shiv.

"Tum yahan kya kar rahi ho?" he asked her.

The lady got up from bed and moved closer to him, she moved her fingers on his face "tumhara intezar"

Aarav smirked and held her from hairs "tere boyfriend ko pata chala ki tu mere kamre mein hai iss waqt toh?"

"Jab itna khatarnak aadmi ho pass toh uss Shiv se kya darna?" she said with a smirk on her face.

"Tara.. now see the wicked me" he said.

Tara smirked "I am waiting.."

He then pushed her to the wall and pulled down the sleeve, he kissed her back and then both engaged into their deadly desire for love.

Here Shiv was at the market, he saw someone and was shocked "Aarav yahan aur wo bhi aise"
