Shivi was biting her nails in worry when a portal appeared and Shrey walked out carrying Mahi. The portal closed behind him and he layed Mahi down on the couch.
The main door was kicked open as a bunch of man entered the house.
"Wow! What loyalty" Shrey said his voice dripping with sarcasm. He fell on his knee panting making Shivi kneel down immediately.
"Shey! You okay?"
"Yeah...just tired" He said sitting with his back against the couch. Travelling between dimensions is not easy with so many people and then fighting there too, its obvious he would be drained.
"You take rest, inke liye to hum hi kaafi hain" Abhir said as Shrey nodded in response and his eyes slipped close holding Mahi's hand.
"Let's settle this last fight" Abhir said using his strength to knock out five guys at once. Noor vapourised them at a molecular level, Shivi trapped them in a water bubble while Parth used his years of training to fight them.
It took them almost half an hour to get finished and turns around to find Shrehi still in the same position. They smiled among themselves and took them back to their home.
Meera was sitting in Karan's room with her knees pulled to her chest. She missed Karan but now she misses Shrey too, even if he was not her son she has grew attached to him over time.
She got up as she heard commotion downstairs, she came dowstairs and her eyes widened looking at the person standing with Parth's support.
"Maa?" He said in a questioning voice not sure if she would accept him or not, he is not her son after all and his luck is even worse when it comes to recieve love.
He was surprised when Meera pulled him in a tight motherly hug. She is the one who has made him realize what a mother actually is and how is it felt to be loved by her. Her warmth was enough for him to finally close his eyes but a voice intruppted them.
"Shivi ye ghar na Shrey ka hai na tumhara to use yahan laane ka kya matlab hai" He recognized the voice easily the real devil, Harsh. Unintentional tears slipped his eyes and his grip tightened on Meera.
"Hey calmn down okay? Your tired, go rest and take Mahi with you" Meera said pulling away and wiping off his tears.
He nodded and Abhir and Noor took them to Karan's, now his room.
"Mr. Harsh Roy, what are you thinking barging in my property and speaking up nonesense like this" Meera said annoyed, she knows Shrey's backstory so she knows what kind of a "parent" he is.
"Shrey mera beta hai"
"Shrey aapka beta tha, ab wo mera beta hai. Chaliye aapko aap hi ki zubaan mein samjhata hun" Krishna piped in.
"Tumne apne so called bete ko Nakul Dixit ko becha aur mene Shrey ke badle paise chukae hain. Farak itna hai ki tum use pichha chhudana chahte the aur mein use apnana chahta tha" He added.
"So ab wo Shrey Harsh Roy nahi Shrey Krishna Singh hai. Now get out" He said making Harsh stomp out of the house.
"You payed for my brother" Shivi asked in disbelief.
"Nahi, bas ek chhota sa jhoot tha Shrey ko bachane ke liye" Krishna replied.
In The Evening
Mahi's eyes blinked slowly as she woke up, feeling a warmth around her she looked up and smiled at the person sleeping there.
Shrey woke up too and smiled at her, one of those tired but content smiles making her feel all warm and fuzzy.She hugged him as he set up, sighing softly when his arms secured around her.
"I love you"
"I love you too, princess"
