__________________________

Days passed. Two weeks happily passed. From Akshara and Aarohi recreating their childhood memories and adding new to it to them celebrating this with their parents.

Also, Aarohi made sure that Akshara never feels alone or out of box. Kaira did every way which made Akshara feel more happier and safe and to be honest Akshara was healing. The void in her was being filled.

Things at their new school were pretty good. Akshara now was in a non-toxic circle while Aarohi was successful in making her first friend. Akshara tried her best to stick with Aarohi during the school because what happened last time had scared Akshara and made her over-protective for her sister.

Naira Goenka was on cloud nine. Her daughters were at last happy and safe, as one. Things had changed and the plot was going good.

Naira had recently visited Singhania Sadan and re-opened the trunk of her mother's memories.

A photograph of Akshara Singhania with the teenage Naira appeared in front of her eyes and her vision became blur with tears.

'Pata hai, mumma mujhe aapki humesha yaad aati hai! Kaash aap ruk gayi hoti, mere paas hoti! Ek maa ki kami kya hoti hai acche se pata hai mujhe! Mujhe jaldi aapse milna hai! Aur aapse har woh baat kehni hai jo mai nhi keh paai! Kaash mai bhi aapki tarah world ki best maa hoti par woh jagah bas aapki hai mumma, bas aapki'

Naira put the photograph close to her chest. The time of her and her mother being together was less.

'Ye kya hai, aap humesha rone kyu lagti ho?' Naira turned back and saw a worried Akshara, standing at the entrance. She quickly wiped her tears.

'Bas mumma ki yaad aa rahi thi, Akshu'

'Toh rona kyu hai! Aapko lagta hai kya ki naani jaha bhi hongi woh aapko aise dekh ke khush hongi?'

Naira chuckled.

'Jab aapka time aayega tab aapko bhi pata chalega! Jab mai durr ho jaaungi na toh aapko bhi rona aayega! Maa ki kami koi poori nhi kar sakta' Naira patted Akshara's head as she laid down on her lap. She kept the photo-graph right on the table.

'Aap kaha jaaogi! Aap humesha mere saath rahogi thik haina?'

'Akshu meri jaan! Kabhi na kabhi toh alag hona parega na'

'Haa toh Kairav bhaiya aur Aaru haina ek dusre ke liye! Aap jaha jaaogi mujhe apne saath le kar jaaogi! Mai aapke bina kaise rahungi!' Akshara said, fuming in anger.

'Mai bhi apni mumma ke jaane se pehle yahi sochti thi! Par samjho Akshu! Koi bhi cheez forever nhi hai! Hum dono ko ek na ek din alag hona hi parega par aapko jeena hai mere liye! Samjhi?'

'Ye aap kya baat kar rahi ho mumma! Mujhe pasand nahi' Akshara sat, crossing her hands against her chest.

'Aur iss par bhi kaam karna parega okay? *points towards her heart* iss naazuk se dil ke bhayankar gusse pe bhi kaam karna parega' Naira said.

'Mumma aap sach mei aaj bohot weird behave kar rahi ho-'

'Kon weird behave kar raha hai?' Akshara and Naira looked at Naksh.

'Maamu! Dekho na mumma ko kya huaa hai bohot behki behki baate kar rahi hai' Akshara said this making Naksh and Naira chuckle.

Before Naksh could say anything, his eyes fell on the photograph kept on the table. His smile turned into a nostalgic smile.

'Mumma' Naksh sighed. Still, till today's date. Her mother's echoes. Echoes of his nickname 'duggu' kept by her kept resonating.

'Bhai!' Naira understood Naksh's mixed emotions and hugged him.
