Though Angre was shocked with Riddhima's request and her denying to not let the family know about their visit to the doctor seemed odd but he had faith in his Bhabhi, the very same Bhabhi who accepted his Bhai even when he wasn't like a normal one and also cares for him like a true wife. So smiling and wishing good night, Angre left to his own room unaware of the fact that someone else heard their conversation. 

Three days later

In the last three days, Riddhima made sure Vansh continues to read a story, the business section of the newspaper, and also started with the basic maths. She was teaching him chess as well according to her plan and even his diet had become healthy with few changes to it. Sometimes he could throw tantrums about eating the food and all but, by God's grace, all of that was inside their room which meant no involvement of her mother-in-law. She used to observe the changes, very negligible change like the glint he had in his eyes whenever he started reading the business section. She also started taking him for workouts and as usual, her mother-in-law had rewarded her with her bitter tongue and also a slap.

Flashback

 What actually happened was, the very next day after speaking with Angre, she woke up an hour early and getting freshened up, she woke him up half an hour later. She made him do meditation and then two rounds of brisk walk around the VR Mansion and then a bit of jogging. An hour later they entered the house and were spotted by her dearest mother-in-law. Anupriya, looking at them came towards them with a sweetly sickening smile and asked Vansh about where they were coming from. But Riddhima didn't miss the way her face contorted after getting to know about their little exercising session. Smiling at Vansh, she asked him to head towards his room as she has something to speak with Riddhima. Being tired of everything, Vansh moved towards his room leaving Riddhima at the mercy of his old vile mother.

Anu(tightening her jaw): Riddhima, yeh tum kya kar rahi thi? Vansh ko bahar lekar jana matlab musibat ko uske gale mein daalna. Yeh baat tumhe shayad patha nahi par, ek baar Vansh par hamla hua tha, accident ke baad. Yeh baat Maa Ji ko nahi patha hain. Toh agli baar bhagwan ke liye, kuch karne se pehle ek dafa puchliya karo. (with a weird glint) Ek baat humesha yaad rakhna Riddhima, ki agar tumhari wajah se yaa tumhari uss behen Sejal ki wajah se mere bete ko kuch bhi takleef hua na toh tumhe mujhse koi nahi bachasaktha hain.

(tightening her jaw): [Riddhima, what is all this? Taking out Vansh means pushing him into danger. You might not know this, but there was an attack on Vansh once after the accident. This is not known to Maa. So from next time, for Godsake ask anyone before doing things by yourself. (with a weird glint) Remember one thing Riddhima, that if by chance you or that sister of yours, Sejal mess something for my son then no one can protect you from my wrath.]

Anupriya left from there, but her words struck Riddhima hardly. She was muddled as she didn't understand about whom Anupriya spoke. Was it Vansh, if so, then when did Sejal mess with Vansh? Instead, Sejal respects Vansh now and also adores him always. But Sejal did laugh at Kabir the other day. So was it Kabir she spoke about in the last? Being confused, Riddhima let it slide and moved to her room and saw Vansh on the bed and he was about to sleep. Riddhima forcefully had to pull him from the bed and dragging him all the way to the washroom, pushed him inside. She waited for 15 more minutes before carefully barging inside on not listening to any sound of water and saw her child-man in his own siesta sitting on the closed commode. Though the sight looked adorable to her, she had lots of work in her hands to do. So gearing up herself she woke him up and sprinkled cold water on him, she made him brush his teeth which made him wake up from his drowsiness. He was completely active now and an active Vansh meant trouble which Riddhima couldn't yet decipher till now. Asking him to bathe himself, She was about to move when out of nowhere, Vansh pulled the hand shower and directed it towards Riddhima completely drenching her and not letting her escape. Once she was drenched from her head to toe, a satisfied Vansh laughed thinking it was funny, but, this stunt made Riddhima retaliate and even she started drenching him in the water. When Riddhima was trying to drench him, he suddenly pulled the pipe and along with the pipe even Riddhima landed in his arms as the floor was slippery. Holding her in his arms, he slowly kept staring at her eyes and moved the tendrils of her hair behind her ear which were obstructing his view. He suddenly hugged her closely and gave a kiss on her cheek and forehead which made Riddhima go numb. Vansh was doing everything in his innocent mind frame which was of a kid, but the same things were evoking different feelings in Riddhima and deep rooting few already evoked feelings.
