I knew how exactly bad, the bomb blasted in the last episode ;)

Trust me, it was too fun to see everyone activated! (atleast for an author) 

I felt that people are still reading through my book :) 

..................................


Alia's new pad back at Mumbai was rushing with people moving to and fro. 

Three days had passed since the incident and well wishers were showing up from every part of the world. They were naturally scared for their bubbly girl who was a sunshine to all. 

They knew that their Alia would not give up! That was the belief they showered on her. 

"No ya, nothing yet. Teen din ho gaye adi ... It's been 3 freaking day!" shaheen was on call and listened painfully to the other side. She was clearly frustrated like the other family members.

"Nothing, same old tantrum. No body in this house is behaving human like. We've all lost our appetite along with hers. Yeah, will convey. Thank you for calling. Love you bhai" she ended the call with a deep sigh. 

It was true. Neither Alia was having even a morsel nor the people around her. Never in their dreams did they ever wished to see their angel go through a phase like this. Shaheen was upset because  let's face the fact that it was her who had been fighting with depression since like 4 years! Alia was always this chirpy happy baby girl and now witnessing her sister, restricted to bed with no emotion, almost like a corpse, made her heart break even more! 

This situation got role reversed. She might be a coming up survivor but she knew that she wouldn't let her sister go through the same ordeal. She would do everything in her might to bring back the old alia, who lighted up lives. 

"Tanna, who was on line baby ?" asked Soni from the adjacent kitchen. The moment they got to know that Alia was found fainted in her hotel room back at Punjab, the entire family rushed to fetch their child. She was admitted for like two days in the hospital as doctors felt that her body was too weak and she needed rest. She got discharged three days back and as per Alia's wish, they brought her to her newly brought apartment. Since then its all dull and silent. The only hustle came from the oncoming guests. 

Today they expected her close friend circle in industry to arrive and meet. Maybe they could make her speak. 

"Maa, it was Adi" replied shaheen. 

"How can I call you when I'm here ?" asked a voice coming from the entrance. 

"Not you buddhu! Aditya chopra" corrected her. 

Since alia got discharged there had been three constant souls who never left her side. Aditya roy was one among them. "Maa, they said they are on their way and would arrive anytime soon" he reported. Before she could react, the doorbell rang making them anxious. "They arrived! So soon ?" voiced shaheen and went to welcome their guests. 

Door got wide opened to welcome familiar faces but some were missing. "I'm coming" said Soni and went in to see for herself. There came basically every one from her circle. 

Karan, Abhi, Ayu, Bunny, Rannu, Fubu, Shredzy, Arti, Shakun and akansha. VD was in Singapore for his next and Pari was in Ambala to be with family but they did talked to a silent Alia on phone, which was again futile. Greetings came in and they all asked whereabouts of her after hugging. There was nothing much to say after all. 

"Still the same ?" asked Abhi. Soni gave a meek nod. 

"Can we meet her, like together ?" asked Rannu who was quite distressed like never before. That cheerful smile was missing today. "Off course beta. You people are the only hope. Hope she responds" smiled soni. Giving her a side hug, rannu moved towards her room along with others behind.
