Episode: Homecoming and Tensions

Airport Terminal

Sanskar and Ragini arrive at the bustling airport, filled with anticipation. Sanskar's eyes light up as he takes in the familiar sights of India.

"Wow, Ragini, we're finally back in India. I've really missed my home," Sanskar exclaims, his gaze scanning the crowd.

As he spots his mother, he quickly moves towards her, his face breaking into a warm smile.

"Ma..." Sanskar greets her, bending down to touch her feet before enveloping her in a hug. "How are you, Mom?"

His mother, Ap, returns the embrace and smiles warmly. "I'm fine, Sanskar. Your father is waiting for you."

Sanskar's expression tightens. "I've told you many times, Mom, I don't want to talk about Dad."

Ap tries to placate him. "But Sanskar—"

"Mom, please, not now," Sanskar interrupts, a hint of frustration in his voice.

Ap nods, understandingly. Turning to Ragini, she offers a friendly smile. "Hello, Ragini. How are you?"

Ragini returns the smile and greets her politely. "I'm well, Auntie. Namaste. How are you?"

"I'm good, dear. Let's go. The car is ready. And where are Paras and Amina?"

Ragini glances around. "Oh, they must be around here somewhere. Ah, there they are."

Paras approaches, hugging his mother warmly. "Ma... How are you?"

Ap laughs softly. "Good, you little rascal. Have you been troubling your brother?"

Paras grins mischievously. "Ma, what do you take me for? I don't trouble anyone."

Everyone chuckles at Paras's antics.

Scene Change

Sanskar's Family Home

Sanskar lounges on the sofa while Ragini sits at the breakfast table. The room is filled with the comforting ambiance of home.

Ap approaches Sanskar with a serious expression. "Sanskar, there's something I want to talk to you about."

Sanskar looks up, his tone resigned. "What is it, Mom? You know you don't need to ask permission."

Ap takes a deep breath. "I know you're still waiting for something because of your father. But how long will this go on? We never know what the future holds."

Sanskar's frustration bubbles up. "Mom, I've asked you not to talk about this. Please, just drop it."

Ap's eyes glisten with concern. "I don't know what will happen now. But I pray to God that He keeps you happy always."

Sanskar's face softens as he absorbs his mother's heartfelt plea. The scene ends with an air of unresolved tension and hope for the future.
