"Do you think she will accept the offer? She is my last hope. Else I am winding up everything over here and shifting near you.", Sidharth speaks over the phone.

"I think she will..", said the person on the other side after a chuckle.

"Hmmm..", he hums.

"But as I said earlier, Aadhya needs mother more than a nanny. Nanny is temporary.", The person states.

"Hmmm..", he hums again and disconnects after biding bye.

Flashback:

He shook the body of his lifeless mother and sulked softly yet uncontrollably.

He ran outside the old broken house asking for help.

"Aunty aunty.. please tell my maa to wake up please. She has been sleeping for a long time. Please Aunty.", Begged the little Sidharth.

"Stop bugging me. You are troubling me since yesterday. Why don't you tell your father?", She asked.

"He isn't home aunty. Please tell my maa to wake up.", He pleaded

"Huh!! He must be lying somewhere drunk on the street.", Said the lady.

The lady went to his house and looked at the corpse which was already smelling as it had been over 24 hours for the death of his mother. She ran outside and told her husband about the death. They called up the municipal corporation and soon a van arrived. They picked up the corpse and started stuffing into the van.

"Maa.. maa.. where are you taking her? I am hungry. Maa, give me food. I want my maa..", he cried.

"Your maa is dead. She won't come back.", Said a municipal worker who mercilessly stuffed the corpse into the van. Sidharth not knowing what death was kept screaming and crying. The man climbed the drivers seat and closed the door. Sidharth banged the door asking the man to open and release his mother but it was all in vein. The neighbours who stood holding their noses went inside their house while the little boy ran behind the van but his tiny legs couldn't keep up to the pace of van which was soon out of his site.

He stood at the muddy street, crying in vein not knowing what to do. While he wandered aimless through the muddy road, he came across his father lying on the street.

"Baapu.. baapu.. get up baapu.. they took maa with them.. baapu..", cried Sidharth. The man didn't move an inch since he was drunk like a fish and had passed out on the road.

Sidharth sat beside him sulking from morning to afternoon until the tears themself betrayed him and stopped flowing. It dried up leaving a mark on his cheeks. The sun was harsh and piercing. His father stirred in his sleep as if he was sleeping on some cozy bed. Sidharth immediately shook him.

"Baapu.. Baapu.. get up baapu.. they took my maa away!", Said Sidharth.

The man opened his eyes to look at him as the sun shone on his face, he lifted his hands to allow a little shade over his eyes.

"Who took your mother? Her lover?", He asked.

"I don't know, that man said maa is dead and will never come back. They took her in the van. Baapu please get me back my maa.", Sidharth started whining.

"What? She died? Oh My Liquor!!", He sighed sitting on the ground.

"Baapu, get her back home please. I will do anything and everything you ask for. Please Baapu. Please.", Sidharth shook his father.

The man pondered for a while.

"I will get you your mother back, if you do as I say.", He said. Sidharth nodded.
