Shehnaaz along with Sidharth entered home at almost 9. He left hospital at 8 then it took sometimes to go to her Ngo to pick her up.
"Hi, Ma." Shehnaaz hugged her leaving Sidharth behind. As she entered home first.
"Hi, baccha. Khana khaya tha?" she asked as usual. Every time She come home she ask her this first.
"Haan, aapne?" she asked
"Maine bhi kiya." She patted her cheeks.
"Main bhi hoon yaha!" a jealous Sidharth said from behind looking at their conversation. "Mujhe to koyi dekhta bhi nehi!" he complained.
They both laughed.
"Aaja baccha." Rita ji went to him and hugged him. She barely reach to his chest. He kissed her hair even being a little pissed with her.
"Aap ka pyaar kamm ho gaya mere liye." He looked down at her.
Shehnaaz rolled her eyes. He always gets jealous if she get more attention from his Mom.
"Aisa kyun boltahe! Ma ka pyaar kabhi kamm nehi hota apne baccho ko liye." She told him still wrapped in her son's arm but forward a hand to cup Shehnaaz's cheeks too.
"Yeah,, I can see that. kamm nehi hota lekin baat gaya." He said so seriously like a kid who is not getting his Mommy's attention enough.
"Yaar, yeh kitna jealous karta hain mere se. Ma, aab se na aap mere taraf dekho hi nehi." She said angrily. And tried to walk towards their room when Sidharth stopped her.
"Maine tumhe kuch bola kya? Main Mom se bol rahi hoon." He said like he didn't do anything.
"Par, aap bol to mere bare me hi ho na?" she said shaking her head.
"Par, tum se to complain hain hi nehi. Mom se hain." he said looking at her and then to his Mom.
"Par meri bajese na, kyun ki wohh mujhe pyaar karti hain"
"but she used to love me more. I miss it. Can't I complain to my Mom?"
"My mom!!! ohh acchaa? Toh meri kya hain? mera to dil se rishta hain unse."
"That's good but I_" he couldn't complete when Rita ji shouted.
"Enough." She took a step back. "baccho ke tarha lad rahe ho dono. Go and get fresh both of you. 10 min me table pe aayo. I love you both and No more discussion about it." she said stern and they both left for their room together but of course not talking to each other.
They had dinner with a little conversation with each other but Shehnaaz twisting her lips and rolling her eyes more often at him.
Rita ji observing all these and she felt good watching his son talking this much which is a rare. He was even tried to explain to Shehnaaz that he wasn't complaining at her. He was talking to her so softly even at arguing. She also talk like she is disappointed at his this behavior. What does it mean? It means they are getting in a good term. She is a Mom who knows her child with just one glance. She knew there was some discomfort in their relationship but she never thought to ask them as its their personal matter. Between a husband and a wife. She understood his son. How could she not. His world roamed around his mom. Since his father's death, he was her Son, her protector, in times her guardian too but he was her baby too. Who needs a lot of attention from his Mom. She loved and pampered her son so much as he was the only thing she could hold onto. He can't digest someone getting more of it. Even not his sisters. So Rita ji got what he was complaining about. But she thought it to let be. He will be okay with it as it's gonna be forever like this way. She loving both of her child.
Shehnaaz helped her in the kitchen to do the dishes. Then they sat on the couch of Rita ji's Room where Sidharth was busy checking some files of the hospital in his room. He was a doctor but also the hospital is also his. He needs to do some work for it too. Shehnaaz, who was talking randomly about her day and Rita ji giggling with her.
She saw a blue file in the night stand.
"Yeh kya hain?" she said and took the file and opened it.
"Mere medical files hain kuch." She replied.
"Paar ye to 2 mahine pehele ke hain." she kept reading the file and gasped "Ma, aap ko heart attack Aaya tha?" she looked at her with her wide eye. Rita ji nodded but patted her hand's back to calm her down.
"Aur ye mujhe kyun nehi pata?" she questioned with genuine concern in her voice along with some hurt too.
"Beta, relax. I'm fine. Dekh main thik hoon ek dam." Rita ji ignored her question. Shehnaaz was confused. She read the date. It said September 2. She didn't push the subject. Talked to her for a while about her health and left.
She didn't went to their room. She knew Sidharth was there so she went to the balcony adjacent to the living room. She took a chair a sat.
'September 2. Ma ko heart attack aaya tha. Aur meri aur Dr. Sidharth ki saadi September 24 ko. Dono dates ke bich me bass 22 din ka fark hain. Dr. Sidharth ne mujhse aise Saadi ki wohh bhi unke Ma ki aisi halaath me.'
She was beyond confuse now.
