   Aryan , Aisha and Karan were having their lunch in the cafeteria together when Aryan got a call from Kabir.

    " Kabir I was trying to call you since morning, where were you...!? Do you even know how worried we all were..!"

    " I am really sorry Aryan , I..I was caught up with something." Kabir said not in his cheerful voice but rather in hoarse voice as if he had cried which made Aryan even more worried.

    " Kabir what happened...!? Tell me now." Aryan demanded with a worried expression which alerted Aisha and Karan.

    " Aryan... Mom... she is diagnosed... wi..th bra..in tumor." Kabir said and sniffed.

    " Kabir nothing will happen to aunty she will be fine... We are coming to you."

    " Hmm.." Kabir just hummed as he was feeling filled with emotions.

    Aryan cut the call and told Aisha and Karan about Kabir's mom . They also got worried for Kabir and his mom and decided to reach him as soon as possible.

    The trio immediately drove to Kabir's house , a maid invited them inside as she knew Aryan and Karan. She escorted them to Kabir's mother's bedroom.

     Sneha was lying on the bed while Kabir was sitting beside her holding her hand and leaning his head on the headboard... Kabir's father Ajay was sitting on other side of his wife and looking at her calm face.

     Kabir saw Aryan , Aisha and Karan and got up , he went to them and hugged Aryan tightly... Aryan stroked his back.

    " Aryan now you only make him understand that I am fine... Look at him , he is crying like a baby since my reports came." Sneha said in her calm tone with a small motherly smile .

    Aryan pulled away and Aisha wiped Kabir's tears and shook her head , Kabir side hugged her and walked to his mother's side with her .

    " Aunty you know even if he is the most mischievous monkey his heart is as weak as a little baby." Aryan said sitting near Sneha.

    Sneha smiled at his words and nodded.

    " Mom... Aisha." Kabir said in his hoarse voice and a light smile on his face.

     When Sneha heard Aisha's name she smiled brightly and forwarded her hand towards her , Aisha looked at Kabir and after getting a nod she walked to Sneha.
Sneha held her hand and made her sit beside her.

     " Aisha..." She said and hugged Aisha in her embrace , Aisha gulped and found her eyes getting moist receiving motherly warmth.

     Sneha pulled away and stroked her cheeks lovingly.

    " Kabir told me about you alot and I was so eager and curious to meet you... I always wished to have a daughter after Kabir was born but God didn't bestow me with that happiness but look after so many years I finally have a daughter." Listening to Sneha's words tears rolled down Aisha's cheeks.

    Sneha hugged her again and stroked her back , she was aware of her mother's recent death...

    " I don't want my daughter to cry..." She heard a manly voice and looked up to find Ajay , he stroked her head lovingly.

    All this was making her so emotional and she found it hard to control herself from busting into tears.

    " Come on my lovely daughter stop shedding fat tears like your cry baby brother." Ajay said with a smile and everyone chuckled while Kabir whined at his father.

     After sometime they all left Sneha-Ajay's bedroom and went to the living room.

    " We are thinking to take mom to London for further treatment..." Kabir said with a sad sigh.

    Aisha hugged his arm and he assured her that he was ok now.

    " That's good , one of Dad's friend is a well known doctor in London... I will talk to him today regarding aunty." Karan said .

     " Aishu we will leave by tomorrow or day after tomorrow so take care of yourself and Aryan ok..." he said and Aisha nodded knowing very well what he meant, it's natural that Karan and Kabir knew about Aryan's family's behaviour and bad treatment towards him.

     " Don't worry about us , you take care of yourself and aunty uncle there..." Aryan said patting his back.

    " I will don't worry..."

    " Karan how is Aditi now..?" Kabir asked as he hasn't talked to her in last few days.

    " Umm... she had a fight with her parents this morning." Karan said caustionately but still Aisha got worried .

    " Aishu it's ok and don't worry I told Aditi to shift in my penthouse so that she can have peace of mind from that awful people..." Karan assured her but Aisha was still worried about her sister and decided to talk to her once they reach home.

    " I think you both should get married already , look even our Aisha and Aryan are married." Kabir said a bit mischievous to lighten the mood.

   They all smiled , even though he was having a difficult time himself but still he was thinking about others.

    " Sure...! Why don't you propose to Jia and we both get married together." Karan suggested with same mischievous smile .

    " Forget it... Aryan and Aishu are married na , I will get neice or nephew in one or two years to play so it doesn't matter if you get married or not...." Kabir said leisurely making Aisha and Aryan both snap their heads in his direction.

     Kabir and Karan were too busy in bickering to notice their expressions though .

    Just then Aryan and Aisha's eyes met and red hue covered their cheeks... They instantly looked away and avoided any kind of eye contact with each other.

    In the evening Aryan and Aisha returned back home and greeted Shlok who was sitting in the living room.

    " Dadu how are you feeling now..!?" Both Aisha and Aryan asked together and looked at each other but instantly looked away.

    " Arey mai thik hu ab , tum dono zada chinta maat karo... Focus on each other not on this old men." Shlok said with a hint of teasing seeing their shy faces just by one eye contact.

    ( Arey I am fine now , you both don't worry...)

     " Go and freshen up I will bring snacks for you both..." Jhanvi said entering the living room with juice for Shlok in her hand.

     " Maa it's ok you don't have to , I will freshen up and come to help you with dinner..." Aisha said and before Jhanvi could say no Aisha gave her a pleading look which just earned a sigh from her.

     Aisha went to her room hurriedly followed by Aryan , she just doesn't want to be around him for some particular reason... And whenever their eyes meet she can only hear Kabir's words and now Dadu too.

     Aryan sat on the bed while Aisha was in the bathroom... He sighed at her attempt of avoiding him.

     Aryan was thinking about their life and relationship deeply now and he was so lost that he didn't notice that Aisha came out of the bathroom and sneaked out of the bedroom already.
