Shiv moved to Aarav and said "Aarav tum yahan kya kar rahe ho? aur yeh kya huliya bana rakha hai?" 

Manav looked at him and shouted "Abbey o kaun Aarav? mera naam Manav hai samjhe" 

"kya kah rahe ho tum? chalo mere saath" he held his hand but Manav jerked him away. 

Manav twisted his hand behind and said "ek baar kaha na samajh nhi aata tumhe! mera naam Manav hai samjhe" and left from there. 

Shiv was shocked "Manav.. peecha karna padega iska" he starts following Manav.

Manav smiled and thought "Aao peeche Shiv, yahi toh main chahta hoon" 

Manav came to a flat which he rented. Shiv thinks "Aarav yahan kya kar raha hai.."

He moves to Aarav's home.

Aarav's home

Tara was lying beside him with her head on his chest. He heard a car stopping sound, he got up and saw through the window "Shiv is here"

Tara got up and asked "what the hell he is doing here?"

"Tum bhool rahi ho he is my right hand koi information laaya hoga" Aarav said while looking at her. He wore his shirt and moved out.

Shiv entered inside and was shocked "tum yahan ho!"

Aarav moved to the bar corner and prepared a glass of whisky for him "yahan nhi honga toh kaha honga maine?"

"Maine abhi kuch der pehle tumhe galaxy apartment mein dekha tha Aarav wo bhi bina mucho ke and tumne ajeeb ki kapde pehene hue they" Shiv replied.

Aarav moved to him and said "pee maine hi aur chad tumhe gayi hai pichle 3 ghante se main yahan hoon aur bina mucho ke? Deemag kharab ho gaya hai tumhara"

"Aarav I am not lying! Tum nhi they toh kaun tha?" he asked.

Aarav shouted in irritation "how would I know? Tujhe jo kaam diya tha karne ko wo hua?"

"Haan ho gaya" he replied.

"Thik hai abhi tum jao mujhe important kaam hai yahan" aarav said.

Shiv nods and left from there. Tara came out of the room, she kissed his cheek and said "kya kah raha tha wo?"

"Nothing faltu ki bakwas kar raha tha" he answered her.

"Okay I need to go now see you tomorrow baby" Tara said with a smile and left from there.

Tara moved out and someone clicked her pictures and left.

Tara came to the mall, she purchased some jewellery for herself. Her eyes fell on Aarav. She followed him and then pulled him at a corner.

She moved her hands on his face "dashing don yahan kya kar raha hai?"

He jerked away her hand "kaun hai aap?"

"Aarav what the hell are you talking?" Tara asked in confusion.

"Excuse me main koi Aarav nhi hoon samjhi aap" he said in anger.

The girl comes to him "Manav kaun hai ye?"

"I don't know faltu mein gale padh rahi hai" he said and left from there with a girl. Tara fumed in anger.

"How dare he.. Chodungi nhi isey" Tara said.

Manav moved out of the mall with the girl. They sat into the cab and left. Manav looks at her "Thank you Tanya for your help"

"It is fine Manav aakhir tum dost ho mere itna toh kar hi sakti hoon tumhare liye" she replied.

Manav smiled and said "ab dekhna tum kaise wo Aarav Malhotra mujhe dhundta hua aayega"

Later, Aarav was his place where he smuggles. Tara marched into the place. Aarav signalled his men and they all left the room.

"Tumse yahan aane ke liye mana kiya tha na?" Aarav said in anger.

Tara grabs him by collar "oh shut up! Kaun thi wo ladki tumhare saath?jiske liye you refused to recognised me" she shouted.

Aarav held her hairs and pulled behind, he said in anger "aaj tak kisime himmat nhi hui ki mera collar pakde tumne kaise pakda?"

"Aarav who was that girl?" she asked.

"Kaun ladki haan? Pichle 3 ghante se main yahan hoon" he said while jerking her.

"Jhooth mat bolo maine dekha tumhe mall mein aur tumne kapde bhi badal liye itni jaldi aur muche.. What are you doing?" she asked.

Aarav shouted at her "tum kya kah rahi ho! Wo shiv bhi aisi baat kar raha tha"

One of his man came in and said "saab shayad wo aapka humshakal hai abhi kuch der pehle apun ne usko dekha tha market mein"

Aarav lighted the cigarette "mera humshakal? Saala hai kaun ek din mein hi jeena muskil kar diya hai dhudhna padega usko" 

He called Shiv and ordered "mujhe do ghante mein wo aadmi chahiye Shiv"

"Aarav uska ghar andheri mein galaxy apartment mein hai waha milega tumhe wo" Shiv answered him.

Aarav ended the call and looked on. He moved out. 

Manav's home

Manav entered inside the house and was shocked seeing a person sitting on the couch with a whisky glass in his hand. He fumed in anger seeing him but controlled himself.

He asked "kaun ho tum?"

Aarav looked at him and crossed his legs around. He asked "yahi sawal mujhe tumse karna hai tum kaun ho?"

"Manav hoon main" he replied.

Aarav got up, he approached him and moves around him. He looks at him from head to toe "same mere jaise bas mucho ka farak hai aise kaise?"

He thinks "mann kar raha hai yahi tumhe maar dun lekin nhi sab wapas lena hai tumse mujhe"

Manav answered him "wo aapko maloom hoga mujhe bas itna maloom hai mere Dad yahan rehte hai aur main unhe dhundhne aaya hoon"

Aarav asked "kya naam hai tumhare Dad ka?"

"Tumhe kyun batau?" he said in anger.

Aarav smirked "main madad kar sakta hoon tumhari"

"Mujhe nhi maloom Anoop dadu ne bataya hi nahi" Manav said.

Aarav was shocked hearing Anoop's name "Anoop Sinha?" he uttered.

"Haan Anoop Sinha" Manav said.

Aarav thought something and asked "tumhari maa ka naam Manvi hai?"

Manav nods in yes "Aapko kaise pata?"

Aarav recalled how he treated Manvi and how she ran away from the house. He asked "ab kaha hai tumhari maa?"

"Main chota tha wo mujhe chodke chali gayi thi meri parvarish anath ashram mein hui hai" Manav replied.

Aarav caressed his face and said "main hoon tumhara Dad"

Manav looks on at him and acts to be shocked "kya? Aap?" he hugs him tightly. From inside he was feeling to stab him and said "Dad! Aap mujhe meri maa ne nahi bataya I just hate her!"

Tears made his eyes and he thought "I am sorry maa iss aadmi ka bharosa jitne ke liye mujhe yeh sab karna padega"

Aarav smiled and separated from hug "tum yahan nahi ab mere saath mere ghar rahoge chalo"

Manav said "lekin aap mujhe batayie kyun aap meri maa ke saath nhi they?"

Aarav made up the story "usko mujhse pyar nhi tha she hated me isliye usne chod diya mujhe"

Manav said in anger "aise kaise chod diya? Aapko nhi pata tha mere baare mein?"

"Nahi agar pata hota toh usey kabhi jaane hi nhi deta main" Aarav said.

Manav moved with him to his house. Aarav messaged Shiv "Manav ke baare mein information nikalo! Aur pata lagao Manvi kaha hai"

Shiv reads the message and was suspicious "itne saalo baad Manvi ka pata kyun chahiye isko"

Delhi

Anoop came to Manvi and informed her about Manav.

"Kya? Aarav uske saath hai" Manvi said.

"Haan Manvi" Anoop replied.

"Anoop uncle Manav bas apne gusse pe control rakhe warna jo plan usne banaya hai wo fail ho sakta hai kuch ulta kadam na uthaye" Manvi said in concern.

"Nahi hoga Manvi" his phone beeped and he was shocked seeing the message.

Manvi asked "kya hua uncle?"

"Informer se pata chala hai Aarav Manav aur tumhari details nikalwa raha hai Shiv ke haatho" Anoop said.

Manvi panicked "usko pata chal jayega uncle sab! Usko nhi pata chalna chahiye Manav police officer hai" 

"Relax MAnvi nahi pata chalega usey usko wahi dikhega jo Manav usko dikhana chahta hai" Anoop said.

"Matlab?" Manvi asked in confusion

"Manvi, Manav itna bhi bewakuf nhi hai usne mujhe apna plan bataya tha aur sab tayari ho chuki hai tum suno" Anoop told her.

Manvi smiled hearing this.

Mumbai

Aarav brought Manav to house which was before Oberoi Mansion and now Malhotra Mansion. Manav looked at the nameplate and thought "jald hi ye Oberoi Mansion hoga" 

Aarav looked at him and said "Chalo andar tumhara hi ghar hai"

Manav passed a forced smile to him and moved inside.

Aarav received a call from Shiv and said "Aarav Manav Shimla ke orphaned mein pala bada hai aur Anoop Sinha ne hi kharcha kiya hai uska"

He asked "aur Manvi?"

"Manvi Delhi mein rehti hai settled hai apne pati ke saath" he said.

Aarav smiled broadly "waah! Chal ghar aa tujhe achi khabar sunta hoon" and ended the call.

Manav was smiling and thought "Aarav Malhotra tumhe kya laga sirf tum apni fake information de sakte ho maine bhi di ab tumhare daav tumhi pe khelunga main jaise tumne meri maa ko fasaya waise hi tumhe fasaunga"
