Suman was working in the kitchen when doorbell rung and she went to see the door. She opened the doors to Tiwari Killa to get the shock of her life, she saw Shavan standing there.

Shavan was very nervous today. He was going to meet Nanaji who would be angry on him and also Sumo, with whom how to deal he didn't know. He drove his car in the direction where his heart once lived or still does may be. He rang the doorbell and when the door opened his eyes met familiar doe eyes. His face depicted shock more than what she had on her face.

Suman stuttered unknown to herself,
"Why are you here?"

"I.. Um.. That.."

"Di" a voice interrupted them. Daboo was holding her kurta and calling her. She took that as a chance to ignore him and moved away from the door with Daboo. He found no one around so he directly went upstairs to meet Nanaji successfully ignoring Chidiya. Many questions unanswered.

Why was he here?

Why was she here? How was she here?

How does he know his way around my house? Was he here to meet Nanaji?

Is she related to Sumo anyway? I hope she doesn't tell Sumo about us.

I hope he doesn't tell Nanaji about us.

Shravan knocked on the door of Nanaji's room. Nanaji was on his rocking chair playing chess with himself while listening to Mukesh Kumar. He was a fan.

"Is that Suman?"

"No Nanaji"

"Who?"

"Shravan"

"My Shravan?" He looked up from his game board towards the door and asked.

"Yes Nanaji. You're Shravan."

"Why are you here? Go away. I don't want to see you."

"I know Nanaji you're angry." He fell on Nanaji's knees holding his hands.

"I was hurt then Nanaji. I didn't know what to do. I got the opportunity to run away and I did. I'm sorry."

"You were hurt so you left me alone to handle that firecracker Suman singlehandedly. You know how much she tortures me. This medicine that medicine. Don't do this, don't do that. Huh! I'm angry."

"I'm sorry Nanaji but now I promise I won't let that firecracker of yours torture you. "

And that's how Shravan was forgiven and they played Chess for a while and talked a lot. Suddenly Nanaji was reminded that nobody came to ask Shravan for tea or anything.

"I think Suman is not home or else she would have come up by now."

"Actually nobody is home except that girl and little kid."

"His name is Daboo, my grandson. And which girl? Are you talking about Aarti?"

"I guess. She opened the door."

"She is Manju's sister's daughter."

"Oh!" So Chidiya's real name is Aarti.

On the other hand as soon as Shravan went up, Suman left for PCT keeping Daboo in Aarti's care. She didn't want to confront Shavan. She didn't know how to deal with him. And till she knows she would avoid him.

Shravan came downstairs and saw another girl playing with Daboo in the garden. He was going to look at them to confirm if she was Sumo or not but Pushkar called him. He asked him to come home. Shravan left in a hurry.

Unknown to the plan of fate both of them were running from each other. But if Eric Paxton was cupid to Chidiya and Shavan, Pushkar was to Shravan and Sumo. Wait and watch!
