Abhinav was sitting in the jhula in the backyard alone. He was lost in his thoughts. Abhir came in there he was also lost in thoughts of his RWP. When he noticed his father was sitting in the jhula with a sad face.
Ever since Abhir got to know that Abhinav is not his real papa he doesn’t know how to react. Even they couldn’t spend quality times like before. His father also doesn’t crack jokes like before.
Abhir went near Abhinav and pulled the corner of his shirt. Abhinav looked back at his son and smiled at him. He reached for his hand and made him sat on his lap.
Abhir - Ap yaha akele akele kya kar rahe ho.
Ab - Bas kuch soch raha tha.
Abhir - Par kya.?
Ab - Yehi ki mera Abhir kitna bada aur samajhdar ho gaya hai sab ka kitna khayal rakhta hai bhumi ki shaadi mein madad bhi kar raha hai.
Abhir smiled..
Ab - Tujhe pata hai sab bol rahe the Sharmaji ka beta kitna acha hai samajhdar hai mere to ankhon mein asu agaye.
He faked shading a tear which made Abhir giggle.
Ab - Main soch raha hoon six pack banalu.
Abhir - Kyu.?
Ab - Tujhe to six pack wale Superheroes pasand hai na isiliye.
Abhir - Mujhe to ap pasand ho. Aphi mere superhero ho.
Ab - mera baccha
Saying so Abhinav gave a emotional smile and kissed his forhead.
Abhir - Senti papa..
Akshara was looking for the duo when she noticed them sitting together,
Ak - Kya khichdi pak rahi hai.?
Abhir - Papa six pack banane wale hai.
Ak - Kyu.?
She raised one of her eyebrows and asked him,
Abhinav just gestured No to her as if he is saying Abhir is joking.
Ak - Abhir ja k lunch karle Roohi k saath. Maasi intezaar kar rahi hai.
Abhir - Ok mamma.
After Abhir left Akshara looked at Abhinav with suspicion,
Ak - Kya chal raha hai.?
Ab - Kya.?
Abhinav said innocently,
Ak - Pehle love letter kisi aur k liye hai ab six pack banana hai sach sach batayiye kya chal raha hai..
Apko koi aur pasand a gayi hai.?
Ab - Kaisi baatein kar rahi hai Akshara. Main to mazak kar raha tha.
Akshara kept giving him the look,
Ab - Abhi ap mujhe ghurna bandh kariye mujhe dar lag raha hai.
He gave a look as if he is scared which made it hard for Akshara to keep her angry exterior intact.
Abhinav held her hands and pulled her towards him and rest his both hands in her waist,
Ab - Mere liye to ap hi hai. Abhi six pack agar banaunga bhi to ap hi k liye.
Ak - Mujhe to ap jaise hai waise hi pasand hai.
Both of hugged each other.
Manjeri was walking by when Abhinav noticed her and the thoughts he was having came back. The bubble he was in for sometime burst again making his heart broken again.
Manjeri also saw them and immediately left from there. She was thinking since she asked him to leave he must be emotionally blackmailing Akshara.
....
Man - Tu Abhir ko kab bata raha hai.?
Abhi - Bata dunga Ma. Kairav ki shaadi to ho jane dijiye pehle.
Man - Tu mujhse wada kar tu bata dega Abhir ko.
Abhi - Haa maa hum teeno milke samjha denge usey.
Man - Teeno kyu. Tu aur Akshara uske maa baap hai tum dono baat karoge ussey. Kisi tesre ki kya zaroorat hai.
Abhi - Kaisi baatein kar rahi hai ap Maa. Sharmaji Pita hai Abhir ke. Agar main aur Akshara bhi na jaye na usey samjhane tab bhi Sharmaji Akele usey sambhal sakte hai. Lekin main aur Akshara saath mein bhi usey samjhane jayenge na tab bhi usey sambhal nehi payenge. Woh bohot chahta hai apne Papa ko.
Man - Kaisi baatein kar raha hai tu. Baharwalo ko itni ehmiyad dena thik nehi hai.
Abhi - Baharwale bolna bandh kariye maa unhe.
Man - Baharwale hi hai woh. Abhir ka pita tu hai woh nehi.
When they were arguing about this they didn’t notice a little guy standing in the door listening to them and crying. Before they can notice Abhir left the place.
....
Abhir knew that Abhinav is not his father someone else is. But hearing it from someone else so aggressively triggered something inside him. More than the fact that Abhimanyu is his father he felt more hurt hearing her calling Abhinav "baharwala". He noticed Abhinav was standing with a guy talking about something. He ran towards him and hugged him from side.
Abhinav was startled when Abhir suddenly hugged him like this.
Ab - Thik hai ap kam shuru kariye kuch bhi chahiye to mujhe bata dena.
Guy - Ji.
After that guy left Abhinav picked Abhir up and Abhir hugged him tight.
Ab - Kya hua nikkeji.?
Abhir - Ap kabhi mujhe chor ke mat jana papa plz.
Ab - Main kaha ja raha hoon baccha. Main to tere paas hi hoon.
Abhir just kept hugging him. Like this, Abhinav went inside the house. Goenkas' and Birlas' were sitting there. Manjeri didn’t like the sight but Goenkas' loved seeing them together.
Man - Abhir aja dekh tere favourite kheer banaya hai maine.
Abhir hid his face in Abhinav's neck and completely avoided her.
Which made manjeri more furious. She felt as if Abhinav has taught him that.
Manjeri came near them and tried to take Abhir from Abhinav which made Abhir mad,
Abhir - Ap to Roohi k dida hai na uska favourite khana banayiye na. Mera dida nehi hai ap.
Everyone was shocked seeing abhir like that.
Abhi - Junior bado se aise baat nehi karte.
Abhir - Unhone mujhe Papa se alag kyu kiya.?
Abhi - Alag nehi kiya bas apko bula rahe the apko kheer pasand hai na esiliye.
Abhir - Mujhe nehi khana hai mujhe bas Papa k saath rehna hai.
Saying so he again hugged Abhinav.
Abhinav and Akshara kept looking at each other with worried and shocked look. As it was the first time ever Abhir behaved like this with someone.
