"What Are You Hiding?
____________________________________________
Gunisha's eyes begin to fill with tears. Rajveer stands by the window, his face devoid of expression. He turns, strides towards her, and picks up the glass of water from the table in front of Gunisha.
Gunisha's hands tremble as she takes the glass and drinks the water. Atharv takes a deep breath, then collapses onto the sofa, murmuring, "I can't believe all this has happened."
Gunisha's eyes had turned red from crying, as if she was expressing her inner pain for the first time in years, tears flowing from her closed eyes.
Sitting on the sofa and wiping the sweat from his forehead, Rajveer continues, "Gunisha, do you remember that picture?"
Gunisha wipes her tears with a tissue paper and responds, "I don't remember that photo now; it's been many years!"
Lying down on the sofa, Atharv remarks, "That photo looks like Karan Singh Rathore to me."
Gunisha and Rajveer exchange a strange glance at Atharva. Rajveer turns to Gunisha and says, "You don't remember anything about that photo?"
Then, Gunisha recalls something with great care. She remembers everything vaguely and suddenly exclaims, "Yes, he had (a tattoo of a lion's paw mark) on his neck!"
Hearing this, Atharva suddenly rises from the sofa, and Rajveer stands up from his seat. Both appear quite surprised, as if they knew something about this. They exchange glances with each other. Gunisha, observing their reactions, couldn't comprehend why they were behaving so strangely.
Gunisha looks at Rajveer in surprise and asks, "What's wrong? Why are you both so shocked?"
Rajveer walks over to the office table, retrieves a file, and places it in front of Gunisha. As she opens it, a photo emerges. With wide eyes, Gunisha picks up the photo and examines it. She stands up, holding the photo, and gazes at Rajveer in astonishment.
With wide and frightened eyes, Gunisha exclaims while looking at the photo, "This is the same photo! This is the same man! It's him, exactly him!" Her excitement is palpable as she makes the realization.
Looking at Rajveer, Atharv triumphantly declares, "See, I told you it was him!"
Gunisha looks at Rajveer and asks, her voice trembling with nervousness, "Is this Karan?"
Rajveer responds, his mind racing as he imagines something, "Yes, this is him. This file contains all his information." Gunisha, overwhelmed with shock, tosses the photo aside and covers her mouth with both hands, her eyes wide with astonishment
Atharv thinks for a while and says, "Is there any connection with that old woman who was calling Parul Sandhya?
Rajveer ponders over Atharv's question for a moment before responding, "You're right. Where is that old woman now? When we went to the mansion, there was no one there except Parul. And she did save you from there!"
Gunisha says while looking at that file: I don't know!
Rajveer adds, "Also, where did Parul get that locket?"
Gunisha says, while looking at Karan's photo lying on the ground,

Gunisha and Parul stood outside the mansion at the gate, the sun having set. Gunisha took a deep breath and said to Parul, "This was really bad. If you bring me to this place again, I won't talk to you, Parul!"
Parul's attention was elsewhere as she stood with her back towards Gunisha, not responding to her words. Gunisha, with an injury on her head, felt a little pain and said, "Parul, let's go home. I need to get a bandage; I'm in pain."
Parul still doesn't respond. Gunisha grabs Parul's shoulders and turns her around abruptly. Due to Gunisha's sudden action, something slips from Parul's hands and falls to the ground.
Hearing the sound of something falling, Gunisha looks at the ground. Suddenly, Parul bends down, picks it up, and quickly hides it behind her back.
Gunisha looks at Parul with narrowed eyes, her hands on her waist, and asks sharply, "What are you hiding?"
Parul starts bidding her head and begins to move forward.
Gunisha walks behind and insists, "Parul, tell me what you're hiding! I'm asking you something, and you're not answering!"
Parul keeps walking ahead, her pace quickening, as if trying to evade Gunisha's questioning. Gunisha quickens her steps to catch up, her frustration evident in her voice. "Parul, stop avoiding me! What's going on?" she demands, her tone growing more urgent. But Parul remains silent, her expression unreadable, as they continue down the path away from the mansion.
Parul and Gunisha return to Roy Mansion. Parul stands near the garden area while Gunisha moves around her, observing Parul's behavior closely. Parul fidgets, attempting to conceal something as Gunisha's suspicions grow.
Parul looks at Gunisha and insists, "I'm not hiding anything!" Gunisha, sensing Parul's deception, begins to ponder silently. Just then, an old woman emerges, dressed in a light grey-colored sari and wearing glasses. Her hair is white, and wrinkles trace intricate patterns across her face, emphasizing her age.
Parul's Nani's name is
(Damini Dutta.)Gunisha takes a deep breath and says, "Nani, I need to talk to you about something." Her eyes well up with tears as she recalls the horrifying events they've experienced. Before Gunisha can continue, Parul interjects, "Nani, the food is ready. Gunisha and I are very hungry!"
Gunisha looks at Parul with wide eyes, puzzled by her sudden interruption. Parul shakes her head and gestures for silence by placing her finger on her lips, saying, "Shhh!"
Damini declares, "It's very late, come inside girls. Sudha is going to scold both of you!" With those words, she starts moving ahead, and as if in response, the hanging lamp in the garden lights up.
