Maahir looked up at Murad who gave him an innocent look,before Maahir could say anything Aalam cupped his face and made him look.
Aalam:”Uss ne jo kuch kiya uss ki saza toh isse milni chahiye na,aur you can’t support criminals right?”
[So she should be punished for whatever she did, and you can't support criminals right?]
Maahir:”Aik criminal ko hi bol rahe ho,How can I not support her?Maa hai woh meri,Mujhe unn k paas jana hai''
[You are speaking to a criminal, how can I not support her? She is my mother, I have to go to her.]
He shouted at Aalam who rolled his eyes and held his face tightly.
Aalam:”Look tum kahi nahi jao gy and that’s final,bhool jao usko jab tak uss ki akal thikane nahi aati rehne do usse wohi”
[Look, you don't go anywhere and that's final, forget her until she comes to her senses and let her there.]
Maahir:”How Can I leave her?Mujhe bas unn k paas jana hai,Unnhe zaroorat hai meri”
[How can I leave her? I just have to go to her, she needs me.]
He once again screams and groans in pain,Maaz sits beside him and holds his hand.
Maaz:”Bhaiya she was just using you,please try to understand and Baba bol rahe hai na kuch days tak woh ly aye gy unn ko wapas right Baba”
[Brother, she was just using you, please understand and Baba is saying that he will take her back after a few days, right Baba?]
He turn to Aalam who clench his fists,Maahir also look at him.
Aalam:”Bilkul bhi nahi”
[not at all]
Maahir closes his eyes and Maaz cups his face.
Maaz:”Bhaiya look,please try to understand unhe kisi ki bhi parwa nahi hai,naa hi aap ki,woh sab drama hai dikhawa hai please try to understand,please I know agar aap abhi unn ko wapas le aaye toh woh aur bhi zayada strong ho jaye gi woh phir se wohi sab kary gi because she know aap unn ko bacha ly gy”
[Brother look, please try to understand, she doesn't care about anyone, please try to understand, please I know if you take her back now,she will become even stronger. She does everything again because she knows that you have saved her.]
Maahir took a long breath he is indeed right he know his mother very well but because she gives him birth it doesn’t mean he ignore her all mistakes,sins,he look down and shook head,they smile.
Aalam:”Great!So now we are perfect family right and you Mr So-called gangster from today you are no longer gangster,after recovery just handle business along with Murad same for you two too”Maahir becomes shocked and tries to say something but stops by Aalam.
Aalam:”Mujhe koi bhi bakwas nahi suni iss par ab now take a rest and you can take this as my last warning because after that I will never use my mouth,jitni manmarziyan tum sab ne karni thi kar li ab wohi ho ga jo main chahu ga,one more thing aaj k baad Aafia ka zikar iss ghar mein kabhi bhi nahi ho ga”
[I don't want to hear any rubbish,Now take a rest and you can take this as my last warning because after that I will never use my mouth, whatever I want you to do you will do,one more thing, after today there will never be any mention of Aafia in this house.]
He said and walk out from the room,they look at each other,Maahir glare at Murad.
Murad:”Main ne nahi bataya sachi woh toh Baba ne khud hi sun liya”
