---------------------------------------------------------

After Anay returned home from the hospital, recovering from the bullet injury, Rajeshwar's fury knew no limits. In his eyes, Anay's betrayal was unforgivable-planning to murder Kabir was an act that shattered any hope of reconciliation. Enraged, Rajeshwar threw Anay out of the house, leaving him with nothing. Without a second glance at his family, Anay left in anger, seeking solace far away abroad, never once reaching out to even his mother, Smriti.

Smriti, lost in the agony of losing her son, fell into a darkness she couldn't escape. The pain of separation consumed her, spiraling her into depression and anxiety. As the days passed, her health deteriorated rapidly. Her heart ached for the son who had become a stranger to her.

Meanwhile, Kabir found joy in the soft glow of Erica's pregnancy. She was blossoming, her body slowly changing as the months went by, and Kabir, in his joy, became a pillar of care and concern. His protective nature over her was unwavering, but there was a kind of fear in him because of the loss of their first child. Which erica could feel in his behaviour all the time . She felt guilty of carrying this secret-a truth she knew could fracture everything. Guilt gnawed at her every moment whenever Kabir's love enveloped her, but she could no longer hold it in.

At six months pregnant, the weight of her secret became too much. With trembling hands, she finally confessed the truth to Kabir, bracing herself for the storm that would follow. As expected, his anger erupted like a wildfire, and the fury in his eyes was unlike anything she had ever seen. In that instant, Smriti collapsed at his feet, begging for forgiveness, but it was not enough.

What truly broke Kabir, though, was the revelation of his father's awareness of everything. The anger, the betrayal-it all collided within him. Both Rajeshwar and Smriti pleaded for forgiveness, rajeshwar asked Kabir to forgive smriti as she was already heartbroken because of Anay and he himself is feels extremely guilty for hiding the truth from him but it was too late. Nothing made any effect to Kabir.

In a cold, final moment, Kabir declared to end his relationship with his father he also went on to say "This house is not safe for my wife and my child," the weight of his words sinking deep. He walked away from the mansion with Erica , leaving behind everything .

5 years later-
---------------------

Kabir stepped through the door of their new bungalow, the weight of a long day at the office finally lifting as he entered the warm embrace of home. Kabir, Erica, and their two kids , 5 year old Kavish and 3 year old Edhaa, had finally become the happy family he had always craved. And then there was Tai, who had chosen to stay with them, adding another layer of warmth to their bustling household.

As he crossed the threshold, Tai greeted him with a bright smile, her hands already reaching for a glass of water.

Kabir took the glass and after drinking it "Where's Erica?" he asked, wiping the fatigue from his brow.

"In the room," Tai replied, gesturing toward the door.

Kabir hurried down the hallway.He pushed the door open and found Erica standing near the bed, he enveloped her in a tight embrace from behind. "Hi, wife! Missed you so much!"

a look of surprise crossing her face "kabir she said softly "you came back.....okay tell me one thing....Do you think I'm crazy?" she asked, pulling back slightly, her brow furrowed in annoyance.

"No, baby! Why would you say that?" he replied, genuinely puzzled.

"Then why didn't you have breakfast this morning? I made everything with so much hardwork! You know you tend to get a headache if you don't have it in the morning," she chided, nudging him away with her elbow.
