Bondita was utterly confused seeing Anirudh being so cold to his own son. He was his son. She didn't understand the fact that, when he accepted Mini who was not even his own blood then why was he ignoring his son, his blood. She thought of asking him but then seeing him all emotionless she left the room stating she has some work.

When she left Anirudh stood up from the bed and closed the door. When he turned, tears were brimming in his eyes.

"I'm... I'm sorry Anay! I'm really very sorry! Baba ko maaf krdo please!" he sobbed and sat there, near the door. His head dug in between his knees. Tears were rolling down perpetually from his eyes.

He slightly raised his head up and leaned back to the door and started speaking as if he was confessing everything but to himself.

"Anay, don't think Baba hates you or is angry with you, Naah! because that's not the truth! Baba Loves you a lot Anay!! You are my jaan just like your Mumma and your Mini didi. I know my cold and rude behavior towards you is hurting your little heart so much! I know when every child goes to school with their Maa or Baba my little Anu goes with their kaka or kaki. When your friends come along with their fathers for fathers day celebrations my Anu either skips that day or stays silent witnessing others enjoying themselves. Baba would love to accompany you beta... but your Baba is a coward who fears losing you! Yes.. I fear losing you because whomever I loved they all left me... first my Maa, then Bondita then my Angel... and now I can't afford to lose you Anay! I can't lose you... I can't... " he sobbed and cried his heart out unaware of what's gonna happen next.

Anay was sitting in his room with a fallen face when a small hand patted on his shoulder. It was Adya who came searching for him to play along with her.

"Kya hua dada? Aap ro rahe ho?" Adya asked in her baby voice.

He nodded in denial.

"Nahi toh Adya! Kuch chala gaya mere aankhon ke andar!" He lied to her.

"Accha toh dikhao... main nikal dethi hu!" she moved towards him.

"Nahi nahi ab theek hai... tum jao..!" he said standing up from there.

When he was about to leave she held his wrist and he turned and gestured with his head what she wanted.

"Dada aap mujhse baathe chupa rahe ho! Mai gussa hu aapse!" she said with a cute frown.

He smiled gently and went towards her and held her shoulders and said, "Nahi toh.. Mai kyun chupaunga? Bolo!"

"Mai nahi jaanthi par aap zarur kuch chupa rahe hai.. Jaayiye mai gussa hun aapse!" she said and ran out.

"Arre Adya... ruko.. Meri baath toh suno.. Adya!" He ran behind her.

Adya ran towards the stairs fast and reached down first and stood there showing her tongue towards Anay who was standing upstairs.

"Agar manana hai toh neeche aao Dada...."she screamed from downstairs and giggled.

He smiled and came down the stairs running but suddenly his legs slipped.

"Mumma....!!!" He tried holding onto the railings tightly but his legs were losing their balance.

Before he could crash land on the floor two strong hands held him safely in their embrace. Anay had closed his eyes due to fear. Adya was standing there shocked and was on the verge of crying.

"Anay!" Anay heard a familiar voice in a concerned and panicked tone. He gently opened his eyes, saw the person and was surprised.
