Next day Aastha walks in the Shaurya and Anokhi's room to find a dustbin full of used sanitary napkins. She finds Anokhi lying on the bed and the bed was spotted.
Aastha- Anokhi? Anokhi! Shaurya! Shaurya! Yahan aao. Shaurya! Oh my god. Anokhi utho beta! Anokhi!
Anokhi- Maa?
Aastha- Beta yeh tumhara khoon bohot beh rha hai.
Anokhi- Maa aap. Maa woh. Woh naa.
Aastha- Beta tumhe explain karne ki koi zaroorat nhi hai. Filhaal chalo change karo. Tum bohot hi weak hogi. Mein washroom ke bahar hi hoon.
Anokhi changes and comes back.
Shaurya returns from shop where he had gone to get other medicines.
Shaurya- Anokhi! Maa!
Aastha- Washroom mein hai. You may have to go in and check. Uska kafi khoon beh rha tha.
Shaurya- Oh. Mein dekh leta hoon.
Aastha was about to walk away that Anokhi holds her hand.
Anokhi- Shaurya can I?
Shaurya- Hmm. I told you. You can talk to anyone. Mein bahar hoon.
Anokhi- Yeh hum dono ka tha.
Shaurya- You sure?
Anokhi- Yes.
Aastha- Anokhi ab kuch batane ki zaroorat nhi.
Anokhi- I just need to say that word aloud. Baki mein chahoon toh bhi express nhi kar paungi. I got an.
Shaurya- We.
Anokhi- Choice mera tha maa. I got an abortion. Maa we made sure ki we had. I mean we took precautions but. Ho gya. And aap jante ho mujhe career karna hai. Maa abhi mein taiyar nhi hoon. Woh feelings nhi aayi mere dimaag mein. I mean baby ke liye. Obviously I don't want to kill. But woh mamta nhi thi. I wasn't ready.
Aastha- Beta aur yeh sab tum aur Shaurya akele deal kar rhe the? Apni maa ko nhi bataya? Kaise manage kar rhe the yeh sab tum dono. Ek anajane shehar mein. Khair ab mein hoon.
Shaurya and Anokhi hug Aastha.
Aastha- Beta yeh kab karaya? Exams se pehle karwaya tha toh itni bleeding honi nhi chahiye. Doctor ke paas chale?
Anokhi- Nhi exams ke baad.
Aastha- Matlab parson?
Anokhi- Haan.
Aastha- Oh toh abhi tumhe rest karna chahiye. Baatein baad mein hongi. Mein kisise kuch nhi kahungi. Tum stress mat lo. Come.
Anokhi rests on Aastha's lap.
Anokhi- Maa Shaan papa ko bolne ki energy nhi rhi. Mein bohot weak feel kar rhi hoon. Aap bata sakte ho. Woh daantenge?
Shaurya- Papa tumhe kabhi nhi daantenge.
Aastha- Shaurya ne sahi kahan. Are you sure tum share karna chahogi.
Anokhi- Mein khud batati but abhi I can't. Baar baar uss topic ke baare mein baat mere aur Shaurya dono ke liye mushkil hai.
Aastha- Theekh hai. Mein bata dungi. But abhi so jao. Thodi der baad kuch khane lati hoon.
Aastha leaves and Shaurya stays with his Anokhi.
Aastha calls Shaan up asking him to come back soon.
Aastha- Shaan meri baar dhyaan se suno.
Shaan- Bolo kya hua hai Aastha? Anokhi ko lekar kuch hua?
