Alia's POV

"I'm sorry." Shraddha weeps. "Please don't take my baby away from me."

"Guys stop!" I shout. "Why are you going to court? What are you going to gain huh?" I ask.

Sidharth gives me a blank stare.

"Have you thought about Millie? She needs to be brought up by both her parents. She needs a loving, happy family!"

"But Alia I can't live with sh-" I cut him off.

"I know when Shraddha left she was wrong and lying about the abortion was even worse! But can't you both put your grudges aside and bring Millie up together?" I ask.

Shraddha looks at Sidharth. "I'm willing to do anything for Millie but I'm staying here so...how will it work?" She asks.

"Sidharth you can move in."

"What! NO!" They both exclaim.

Then I realised that I just came up with an amazing idea and it could maybe re unite them.

"Sidharth you can sleep in the guest room!"

"Okay. But what about Parineeti? I'm still going to be with her!"

Shraddha makes a face.

"Yes yes. Just for the time being," I say.

"Fine."

"Ok let's make a start as parents you both need to pick a name that you both would like to name your daughter....so on the count of three say a name you really like. 1......2......3" I state.

"Ayesha!" They both exclaim. I was quite shocked that they said the same name the first time.

"Awww Ayesha that's a beautiful name."

Sidharth's POV

"What?! You're moving in with your ex and that's supposed to be okay?!" Parineeti rages.

"Umm I guess so..."

"No! You're not moving in with her!"

"But Ayesha..." I protest.

"Ayesha what? Forget about stupid Ayesha!" She says.

"How dare you Parineeti?!" I say and slap her.

"How dare you?! We're done. Just go to your stupid cow of an ex!" She rages and storms off.

I know I shouldn't have done that but she had no right to call my daughter stupid! I get all my belongings together and take them so I can move in.
I walk in and see Shraddha cradling Ayesha in her arms. "Shraddha she looks like Sidharth don't you think?" Jacqueline asks her.

"Umm I don't really know." She says.

"Oh Sidharth your here, I'll go make sure the guest room is ready. Shraddha serve him dinner." She says taking Ayesha and placing her in her cot.

I sit at the dining table and Shraddha puts a plate of food in front of me. I give her a glare. "Don't worry I haven't poisoned it." She says.

Jacqueline's POV

"Yes! I got it Alia I'm on it." I end the call smiling deviously. Alia told me her idea to bring Shraddha and Sidharth back together and it's awesome. I get the product that Sidharth is allergic to and spray it around the whole room. I hide the bottle in my room. I then see Sidharth going into the room.

Half an hour later...

"ACHOO!" Sidharth sneezes walking into the living room.

"What's wrong?" I ask.

"I keep....ACHOO!.....sneezing in that room continuously for some reason I don't think I can stay in there." He says irritatedly.

I pretend to go and check.

"If that's so then you can share Shraddha's room with her and Ayesha." I say with a slight smirk.

"But-"

"It's fine don't worry just go." I assure him.

Shraddha's POV

I was feeding Ayesha and Sidharth suddenly walks in sneezing.

"WHAT THE HELL YAAR DON'T YOU KNOW HOW TO KNOCK?!" I scream.

"I...I have to stay in here because I keep sneezing in the guest room." He says.

"Ok come in." I say as I finish feeding Ayesha.

"ACHOO!" He sneezes loudly.

He walks to the sofa and places a pillow onto it.
"Sidharth you can sleep on one side of the bed. You don't need to sleep on the sofa." I say.

"It's fine I'm okay." He says.

"It's not comfortable yaar your back will hurt just sleep here."

He gives me a weird look.

"Ayesha will be in the middle..."

"ACHOO!" Oh god.

He then lies on the side next to Ayesha and we all fall asleep.

Sidharth's POV

I wake up at about 2:00am as I hear Ayesha crying. I open my eyes and see Shraddha rocking her trying to put her to sleep.
"Shhh come on go to sleep." She whispers.
But Ayesha continues to cry non stop.

I get up "give her to me. Let me try."

"Okay." I sing a lullaby to her and she falls asleep.

"Thanks." Shraddha says. I give her a slight smile.

We then go to sleep.

Varun's POV

Alia wakes up and gets ready. I decide that I should follow her and see what she's upto.
She sprays perfume on herself and eats some cereal. While she eats I get dressed. She picks up her keys and bag and leaves.

I get into my car and start to follow her...
