Rachana: What's the matter Sidharth? Why do we have to shift the house? Who is this girl Shehnaaz? Answer me!!

Sidharth: Aaa.. Maa.. Last year..

Rachana: What happened last year?

Sidharth: Last year, this girl Shehnaaz slapped me due to misunderstanding and I thought she did it as a dare..

Rachana: I am listening..

Sidharth: I thought.. I would.. I.. I..

Rachana: Why are you stammering? What wrong have you done?

Sidharth: I ki.. kissed her to teach lesson for insulting me but now she wants to revenge. I don't know how but she is doing all this..

Rachana slaps Sidharth.

Rachana: How could you do this Sidharth? Did I give you such education that you disrespect a girl? You have a sister at home, how would you feel if someone behaves like this with your sister?

Sidharth: Maa.. don't compare her with Suchi. Suchi wouldn't slap someone without any reason.

Rachana: So did Shehnaaz slap you without any reason?

Sidharth: She falsely accused me of puncturing her car tyres.

Rachana: What made her think like that?

Sidharth: May be because only I was in the parking lot that time..

Rachana: It was a misunderstanding clearly?

Sidharth: I think so..

Rachana: Does this justifies your action?

Sidharth put his head down.

Rachana: Don't you ever show me your face again. I am ashamed that you did such things. Get out of the house.

Sidharth: No no no no.. please

He looks around, it was just his imagination. He was still outside his home. He wipes off the sweat on his forehead and gulps as he enters the house. He didn't know how to convince his mother to come and stay with him in the D&D mansion's servant quarters. He feared his imagination would come true if he speaks the truth. He didn't have enough time as well.

On one side he was fuming over Shehnaaz's plotting against him and on the other side he was scared to lose his family due to his one year back mistake. He finds his mother sitting on the couch with a hands on her head. She was tensed.

Sidharth: Maa.. (she looks up) What happened?

Rachana: I've got a notice to vacate the house today. It's written that the earlier two notices were unanswered by us but we haven't got any such notices. Where would we go at such sudden notice?

He knew this was done by Shehnaaz.

Sidharth: Maa. I have a solution. One of my classmate approached me for tuitions. She needs tutor who would stay close to her mansion so she is providing me quarters to stay since I have to cover a vast curriculum for her. If I say yes, then we can shift immediately today itself.

Rachana: Huh? What a coincidence? But will you able to manage the various commitments you have?

Sidharth: She is offering me a salary of Rs. 2000 per day. With that I can stop football coaching and evening tuition and manage it.

Rachana: I am fine with it. Talk to her and let's shift.

Sidharth calls her from local telephone booth and they immediately shift to D&D Mansion's servant quarters. The quarter was much better than the rented house.
