The Oberoi Retakes

~Insecure~

Plot: What if Pinky was just insecure, but didn't try to separate Shivika? In this shot, Pinky doesn't bring Nayantara nor did she indulge with Kamini for separating Shivika. Pinky is just rude to Annika and does not plan for it.

Plot situation: Annika saves Shivaay from Kamini's gunshot and ends up in the hospital.

Pinky was extremely relieved that Shivaay wasn't shot down by Kamini, but she was feeling bad for the pressure he is taking in for that girl. He was extremely angry and frustrated when the doctors were irresponsible by keeping no doctor for an emergency. The last time, Pinky saw Shivaay this tense was for their family, and here, he is getting frustrated and walking to and fro, just for a girl whom he forcefully married, just because Tia left him. In fact, she was a middle-class girl, why should he care for her?

Shivaay was the only person after Jhanvi, who took care of her when she needed it. She feared losing the care, her son gave, when he got married. She never felt that in front of Tia, because at that time, Tia was taking care of her(even though it was namesake, Pinky thought it was real, so she wasn't much affected, by her betrayal).

Meanwhile, the doctor came out after treating her and informed them she is fine now. Shivaay was relieved when he came to know that Annika was alright and sat beside her the whole night. This irked Pinky more. Shivaay could have freshened up and then take care of Annika. She is alright now. Once Pinky returned home, she was in a dilemma.

Pinky:(thoughts)"Somewhere, Annika has saved my heera beta, a lot of times and she forgave Shivaay's mistakes when the whole family was not talking terms with him, for what he did to her. But all of these doesn't mean that her son should ignore her words and consider Annika's words, every single time!"

She was confused and felt bad, that her position in Shivaay's life has stepped down. She changed her dress into nightwear and sat on the bed. Shakti, who got freshened up, somehow guessed that Pinky might have been tensed about Shivaay and Annika and the happenings in her house. He knows about her love for their son, but he didn't know about the inner tension, she had because of Annika!

Shakti: (sat beside her) "Annika is fine now, Pinky and everything will be normal."

This instigated Pinky more, now, her husband, who doesn't even care about her more than his worships, started caring about her. That girl, who came recently into their lives! She got irritated and lied on the bed, while Shakti assumed it for her being calm for his words. That night, she couldn't sleep properly, due to her overthinking and insecurities creeping inside due to being avoided by the person who used to care for her. (Overthinking will come along when you have insecurities inside)

Pinky:(thoughts) "What if that girl says I am bad and all to Shivaay and he will leave me and go? What if she plans against me like how she did for her enemies? No...no...Shivaay will believe me...but what if she didn't believe me?"

The next afternoon:

Annika was getting some doubts since morning, that Pinky was ignoring her and moving away from places from where she was staying.

Annika:(thoughts) "Pinky Aunty used to have problems with me before, but she has never ignored me to this extend. Did I do something wrong? If I remember, I don't think so. I want to talk to her and ask her, but she has talked to me properly only before my marriage and a few days ago, to save Shivaay. I thought it will change our relationship, but it became worse as compared to before. I need to find it out somehow."

Annika then goes to Pinky's room and knocks at the door.

Annika: "Pinky Aunty, can I come in?"
