Bela : haa bhabhi uska haq banta hai sach jaane ka. 

Shanti : Bela Tum bahar jao bacho ko khana khailo aur haa Sameer ko andar bhej do. Main unhe sach saath mein batana chahti hu.

Bela nodded in agreement and went out. Naina was done feeding Anju. She call out Shanti.

Naina : chachiji iska pet bhar gaya hai aab main kya kar?

Shanti smile and went near her.

Shanti : ab isse apne khande par sulo aur iski pith (back) par thapathapao aur sula do.

She did the same as been told to her. Soon Anju was in deep slumber. At the same time Sameer enter the room.

Sameer : chachiji aapne...

He was saying something but Naina shh him and told him that though eyes that Anju is sleeping. He blink his eyes. Naina make her sleep on bed and keep pillows around her.

Both of them look at Shanti with questioning eyes. She made them sit on near by chairs. She hold Naina hand in her hand.

Shanti : ab batao kya jana hai tum dono ko.

Samaina : sab kuch, jo humein aaj pata chala vo bhi aur jo nahi pata vo bhi.

Shanti : thik hai main sab batati hu. Par sach batane se pehle main itna kehna chahugi ki tum log sach jaane ke baad apne bado se nafrat mat karna nahi toh un logo ki aatma ko bahut dukh hoga. Jis din Anju ka janam hua us din...
