Aarya woke up the next morning with the sun shining the through the curtains, and greeted by the faces of the children including Pooja, which was a welcome sight; since she had spent the night worrying about her friend being shot.

Bhola is targeting Pooja, has his sights on her. He intended to abduct her and the shot could have been meant for her, but sadly ended up striking her innocent friend. But why?

Sitting up, she asked, "What's wrong?" Her voice sounded worried.

They wrap their arms around her, and squeeze her in a quick, tight hug, taking her breath away, "we love you,"

"I love you more than myself," She said, adorably.

Pooja, Nareen, and Priya said "We know," while Faras simply nodded.

"Aren't you supposed to be at school today?"

"The school gave us a week-long holiday because of the incident in my class, and today happens to be Saturday," Pooja replied.

"Pooja, I apologize for what happened to your friend," Aarya said.

Pooja revealed with a half smile that Anuj, her brother-in-law, and Pramitra, her sister, will accompany her to see her friend later.

"We will bring lots of gifts for her," Aarya said.

She informed them that they had house chores for today, then got off the bed with them still looking at her.

They say "no," together.

Thinking he wasn't among them, Nareen smiled wider as she declared, "Yes, all of you are," and made sure to point at him.

While they're all laughing, he looked sad.

She suggested that Kajal was done with breakfast and asked them to go to her while she headed to the bathroom.

Kajal was setting up breakfast on the dining table when they approached her. Pramitra emerged from the kitchen with plates to arrange them on the table.
