Vikram woke up with a headache, he looked around the room to find the side of the bed empty. Vikram got up but he felt weak, very weak. His whole body ached.

His room felt different too? He looked at the picture kept on Saira's side of the bed, it was him? But older along with three boys. The oldest looked like him.

The middle one was a mix of both of them, but he looked like older version of Arav. The youngest he.. he looked at Saira.

Where was he? He thought to himself. Vikram looked at himself he definitely looked old, was this a weird dream.

He opened the bedroom door and heard wailing noises, and a lot of hustle bustle. Vikram walked towards the stairway as he looked at the photos covering the hallways.

As he got closer to the stairs the crying noises intensified. Vikram walked down to the living room but what he saw next was enough for his soul to leave his body.

People were gathered around a dead body as many women sitting around the body cried.
Vikram scanned the room to find a familiar faces but all he could see is unknown faces crying and murmuring looking at him.

Vikram walked closer to the body to peak but he stood there shocked after what he had just witnessed. It was dead body of a boy, the boy looked like Arav beside him was his Saira sitting there looking at the body with dead eyes. Her face pale and her eyes red as she held the dead body's hand

" Sai?" He called but she did not even once look at him

" Sai!" He called again but this time when she looked at him her eyes held rage and sadness at the same time

" My.. my Aru MY ARU ARU WAKE UP ARU AMMA IS SORRY ." She cried

Everything happening around Vikram felt unreal, this had to be a dream. The boy he.. he couldn't be his Aru right?

" MY..MY ARU KILLED HIMSELF ARAV GET UP PLEASE AMMA IS SORRY." Saira cried while hitting her palms on her forehead.

Vikram knew this had to be a nightmare, his Aru was little boy not a man. Vikram felt like
Someone was suffocating him, he did not like this and wanted to wake up.

" Sa...Sai what are you saying?" He asked, his voice cracking as he bend down to take a closer look.

" He.. he isn't my Aru Sai STOP LYING!" He yelled as the people around him started to whisper amongst themselves.

" EVERYONE FUCKING LEAVE." He yelled as he ordered the guards to escort everyone out.

When everyone left he looked at his wife who looked dead as she brushed the body's head lovingly

" Aru baby get up Amma Amma will take you to ice cream. I..I'll not tell nanna okay?" She spoke to the body as if wanting to get a response.

" Why.. why isn't my Aru saying anything? Is he angry on Amma? Please don't be angry on Amma baccha come one speak na, SPEAK SPEAK PLEASE SPEAK." She cried loudly.

Vikram just sat there confused terrified looking at the scene in front of him.

" Why are you here now huh?" A voice asked, Vikram looked behind to see two men. One looking like an exact replica of himself the other one hiding behind.

" Why are you here now! Aren't you satisfied? You killed Arav now who's next Ekansh? Tell me?" The boy yelled as he marched towards him.

" Speak up dammit! Not once not once did you ask care about us. It was all about your legacy. The great Vikram Reddy's children will all have to be successful." Older Veer yelled as Ekansh hid behind his brother.
