*************************************************
abhira didnt know what to do
she didnt want ruhi to get punished for what armaan did
she tried reasoning with arjun
but he said if ruhi was really innocent
she has to prove it
and he will give her a fair trail
but if she really is the culprit
she will face the judgement
abhira wanted to argue more
but arjun kissed her and told her to stop the topic at once
while abhira still felt the mess will never be over
with disappointed look she was working
when a message popped up on her phone
asking her to meet her at at a mall urgently
she went there thinking it was arjuns prank
but it was none other than her mother in law isha
abhira hugged her as soon as she saw her
" maa..why did you call me here"
" to surprise you, lets go"
while isha was rushing abhira
abhira remembered her som
" maa wait i need to tell arjun to pick up ayush from daycare"
" just send him a message
he will go and get him
now come with me
today im not in good mood"
isha said showing her fake anger
abhira knew what was happening
" maa .. please dont be angry
it was me who said no for a vacation"
" abhira its not vacation
its anniversary
you guys never celebrated anything romantic"
" what are you saying maa
i had some romantic anniversaries
did you forget the cruise of last year"
" it was me who arranged it
you were busy working on your fathers settlement case for the land
which we didnt need
and arjun he gave you marrigold
instead of a rose
pathetic"
" maa please you should give credit to arjun
he remembered..."
abhira said jokingly
" are you done laughing
now come with me"
abhira was dragged into a jwelery store
and her mother inlaw asked her to take anything as an anniversary gift
abhira was looking at some sets
and like one
while mesmerizing the set
abhira called Isha
and without moving her eyes from the set
she asked isha a question
" maa .. what do you think?
this set is pretty right
it will definitely suit me"
abhira said laughing
but when she didnt get any response
she looked up only to see vidya standing next to her
" who are you calling maa ?
im not your maa abhira
you lost that right
did you forget
what you done?"
" aap kya keh rahein hein?"
main apko nehin..
mein .."
abhira tried to reason
but vidya was not slowing down
" now i under why you called me maa
you want to come back to armaan right
now i know
why my son is going away from me
why he is not helping rohit and ruhi
its because of you right?
you daayan are going to steal happiness from my family
are you not satisfied with one husband abhira?
why are you after my son
doesnt your new husband satisfy you
or are you after my armaan for everything
dont tell me are you sleeping with my armaan"
abhira very angry she was boiling
at the point
she wanted to hit vidya  and she even raised her hand
but she calmed down
and saw isha coming out from the restroom
abhira called out for isha
and introduced her to vidya
" mrs vidyaji
this is my mother in law isha talwar
whom i call as maa
after my maa died
if there was someone
who deserved to be called as my maa then its her
and no im not saying because she is arjuns mother
she is my mother
who stood by me
she doesn't change colors
and no she dosent compare me with anyone
she doesnt tell me how much i should eat
how i should be hidden inside the doors
how i was incomplete without a child
more over she doesnt forget that she is woman first
and not a cheap toxic woman like yoi
take a good look at her
no one in this world
can take my isha maa's place .. i repeat no one...
few minutes ago, i was not calling for you
i was calling my isha maa
so please leave my family alone"
vidya looked at her with annoying face
she never expected abhira to talk back at her
she wanted to slap abhira
for disrespecting her
but she didnt have the time
so she left the shop
but vidya knew she must do something
she cannot let abhira have all this happiness
*****************************************
armaan was having a splendid day
he thought one thing
always keep your enemies closer
thats what he was doing
staying close to arjun
he was helping out arjun in a case
seeing arjun impressed with him
made him happy
armaan needs to make sure arjun believes him 100 percent
as he was checking a file
arjun got a call that that ayush was admitted in hospital
and both of them left to hospital
armaan tried to calm Arjun
when he saw ayush head  and hands were wrapped up
" calm down arjun"
" how can i calm down
did you look at my son
he was left alone on the road
no one came to pick him up
and he ran away thinking his mother had come"
arjun was raging in anger
when .. armaan tried to reason
" this usually happens when a mother dosent  care about her child"
" what do you mean armaan .. abhira loves our son
please dont speak nonsense "
" im sorry arjun
looking at ayush bought back some painful memories
my step mom used to do the same things
im not saying your abhira is like this
but please take care of your son
I do not want anyone to be like me
where my own mother cursed me that i will never be happy
and i never got much support from my father
please if his mother dosent like him
you dont leave him
ayush needs you arjun
your son needs you "
armaan smirked
as he saw arjun disconnecting the call to abhira
the game had begun
********************************************
abhira was shivering uncontrollably
isha was trying to calm her down
but abhira had the fear
" maa .. i have this feeling
please let us go from here
i dont want to stay here anymore
i dont want these poddars in my life.."
that one statement made isha shiver
" what do you mean poddars ..
who was she?"
isha asked with anxiety
" maa she is .."
