Rhea hugged Pragya and soon went back to dreamland but Pragya couldn't even blink she's scared that she might've heard wrong and that fact made her hug rhea tighter unconsciously.She carefully separated herself from rhea and after making sure all three are sleeping she made her way to the study room.She took her second phone and texted someone "Rhea in her sleepy state called me as maa,I'm so so happy I wish everything will become fine soon." She got a response which she wasn't expecting "Alia escaped abhi helped her,we got her in our basement."

Seeing the message her blood boiled and she started planning on how to take care of aila and she asked her team to announce the escape of alia in the news so people will know about it and Abhi can't find her too. She fell asleep while working and was woken up by her alarm noticing it's morning she quickly freshened up and went to make herself a cup of coffee.When she reached living room she saw no trace of her kids together and heard the sound of rustling making her aware that they all r awake .She made her way to kitchen and started making coffee and some toast when she saw rhea walking towards kitchen still in sleepy state so she wished her good morning with a soft smile and she got a head nod in return she chuckled loudly and served coffee in four cups as she saw how her other two children are standing at the kitchen entrance but not coming inside.Before she can call them,they came rushing and sat down at the dining table.

She placed the toast and coffee cups on the table and everyone started eating as they are all so hungry.After finishing breakfast they all went to get ready for the day as they planned to spend the day at the orphanage before they go back to Delhi.

Shahana welcomed them by hugging them and dragging them inside to play board games with kids.Everyone is happy and smiling looking at the little children playing around.Pragya saw how rhea is a bit gloomy she looks happy but there is some sadness lingering around her after contemplating for some time she thought to ask her later.

When she saw rhea sitting on the swing alone she joined her and asked "why r u looking sad?" Rhea's eyes went comincally widen "What,I don't understand what you are saying aunty." Pragya chuckled and caressed her hair and said "I can see it in you,you are looking sad for some reason if you want to talk about it I'm gonna listen,If u don't wanna say anything then I'll be here with you."Rhea felt overwhelmed she thought is it that easy to read her then why did no one tried to know the read her,why did no one saw her suffering and why did no one tried to save her,Why everyone she likes always leave her broken her chain of thoughts broken by the hand caressing her hair   She turned towards Pragya and saw her already looking at her with such a warm gaze that she never saw someone looking at her like that she cleared her throat and said "It's nothing aunty I'm just thinking about these kids I'm gonna miss them." Pragya smiled and said "Well if u want we can always come back here."Rhea nodded with a small smile and both of them went inside.

They all soon reached their homes and sunny came to pick up kiara and both of them left.Pragya,Shahana and prachi asked rhea to join them for dinner to which she politely denied and closed the door of her house.She made her way to her room and thought that she should not get close to anyone at the end they will all leave her alone again,She decided to make some distance from them so she won't get attached to them.She decided she should go back to her life where people think of her as a reckless person who does whatever she wants,a brat she should not let people know about her vulnerable side she was scared when Pragya guessed what she was feeling. She don't want to be weak again because if something goes wrong this time she knows she can't survive it.

She called Jack and said "Release the news of me quitting singing and tell how I was forced to do it." Jack who was already aware of the plan asked her "Why r u sounding like that,did anything happen?" She replied nothing much I'm going to club and I'll stay at hotel room for tonight and will directly go to college just make sure bhai don't know about it.Jack sighed and said okay but please take care of yourself.

She was at the bar and having her usual drink she was thinking about the past few days with Prachi and her family and a big smile appeared on her face which immediately dimmed when she is realised that they are not her family and she again continued drinking after that as she already booked a room in the hotel she went and she immediately passed out unaware that Ranbir who's also at that bar with his friends saw rhea drinking alone when he decided to go near her she already left sighing he thought to talk to her tomorrow at college.

Prachi and Shahana saw Rhea's door locked when they came to see if she's ready for her college or not.They thought maybe rhea is focusing more on studies that's why she left to college early thinking they can meet her there they left to college.

In college they saw Ranbir and aryan but didn't find rhea with them before they can ask aryan asked them "Where is riu" Shahana frowned and said she didn't reach yet but morning before coming to college we saw her door locked so we thought she left to college then Ranbir interfered saying about last night incident.They all are thinking where rhea is if she's fine but they saw her parking her car relief washed over them.They were going towards her when they saw a boy going and hugging rhea tightly they were too shocked to process what's happening their chain of thoughts were broken by the loud slap rhea gave to him "Call me rhea we are not close enough to be having some nicknames,next time don't try to come near me."she stormed out saying this.Prachi ran behind her cause she thought something is wrong and is also angry at rhea for slapping someone and humiliating them infront of everyone.
