It had been 3 months, 3 months of Naira's silent suffering, 3 months of her weeping for her child in private, 3 months of staying strong for the sake of Karthik, 3 months since that unfortunate incident.

"Thank God tum agayi, mujhe lagga tum nahi aogi", said Yash, hugging Naira as she entered.
"Kaise nahi aati Bhai, mere champ ka birthday hai", she answered.
"Naira bua", a 4 year old, screamed and came running into her arms.
"Haapy bday mera bacha", Naira wished lifting up the child in her arms.
"Baby, aj champ ka bday hai usse wish nahi karoge", Naira told Karthik
"Happy Birthday day champ.", Karthik wished like a child. The child turned around pouting
"What happened champ", asked Naira
"Phupaji phele ki tarhe mujh se milne kyun nahi aate. Aur aaj woh aye hai, toh aise behave kyun kar rahe hai. Unho ne mere saath humare special handshake bhi nahi kiya", the child complained
"Krish, champ, baby please naraz mat ho, I promise tumhare Karthik phuphaji bahut jald phele ki tarhe tumhare saath kehlenge", Naira promised
"Kyun bache ko jhutti tasali de rahi ho.", commented Rukmani
"Karthik tab thik hoga jab tum usse thik honne dogi, tum toh usse khud se bandhe rakhna chati ho. Usse doctor ki zarrorat hai, tumhe usse mental asylum bhejne ki zarrorat hai", said Rukmani
"Baby chalo mere saath", said Naira and was about to leave with Karthik
"Naira please don't go like this", Rose spoke
"Nahi rose bhabhi mein yahan nahi reh sakti, jahan log mere karthik ko pagal samajhte hai.", Naira answered
"Naira, Rukmani Dadi ko aise nahi kehna chaiye mein manta hun, magar woh purri tarhe se galat bhi nahi hai", said Naksh
"Bhai ap ke kehne ka kya matlab hai", asked Naira
"Naira, hum dono ko pata hai mein kya keh raha hun, Karthik ko medical attention ki zarorat hai.", said Naksh
"Haan princess, uss accident ke din se tumhari zindagi ruk si chuki hai, tum purra din Karthik ki dekh bhal karti ho, khud ki taraf dhyaan bhi nahi deti", said Naitik
"Haan beta, in 3 mahino mein tum academy bhi ek baar nahk gayi ho, wahan sab kaisa chali raha hai pucha nahi", said bhabhima
"Purri zindagi, sirf Karthik ka khyal rakhne mein nahi kaat sakti", said devyani
"Aap sab yeh kahe rahe hai mein karthik ko chod dun, uski zimedari kissi aur ko saunf du. Kya aap sab Karthik se bhi yehi kehte, agar mein Karthik ki jaghe hoti aur woh mere, tab bhi aap kya yeh kehte, ke Karthik humari beti ko asylum bhej do, bhul jao uske barien mein, aur apni zindagi mein agge badho", Naira asked
"Kissi aur se na sahi, ap se toh umeed thi Kirti di ke aap Karthik ke liye kuch bolenge.", said Naira and then left along with Karthik.

"Maaji aap logon ko shayad jo mein kehne wali hoon, woh bahut burra lagge. Magar mujhe lagta hai humein Karthik ko asylum bhejna hoga, jahan uska illaj ache se ho paye", said Surekha.
"Chachi", Naira raised her voice, hearing what Surekha said, when she entered the house along with Karthik.
"Naira, mein jaanti hoon tum Karthik ko khud se dur hote nahi dekhna chati, mein bhi nahi chati ke Karthik hum se dur rahe, magar uski bhalayi ke liye, yeh zarrori hai", explained Surekha
"Maa mujhe bhi lagta hai ke Surekha sahi keh rahi hai", agreed Akhilesh
"Aap logon ko ho kya gaya hai, Karthik ko sirf amnesia hua hai, woh pagal nahi hai, jo hum usse asylum bheje, we just need to bring his memory back and for that he needs to stay at home
with is us. Please Karthik ko kahi mat bhejiye", she begged
"Naira, Karthik ka mann bilkul bache ki tarhe hai usse kuch samajh mein nahi atta ke woh kya kar raha hai. Last month he tried jumping from the terrace, agar tum nahi aati woh kud jaata. Pichle hafte usne rat poison chai mein mila di, kyunke usse zeher aur shakar ke beech ka farak nahi pata, agar didi ne nahi dekha hota toh hum sab ki jaan ko khatra tha, aur kal bhi usse knife ke saath kehlte huye chot laggi. Agar ab usse medical attention nahi mili tho woh khud ke liye aur hum sab ke liye khatra hi sakta hai", explained Surekha.
"Surekha, sahi keh rahi hai, sirf issi liye kyun ke hum Karthik ko apne pass rakhna chate the, hum uski Jaan ko khatre mein toh nahi daal sakte ", Suvarna also agreed with a heavy heart. Then Manish and Dadi also said yes.
"Mera Karthik, kahi nahi jayega.", Naira screamed.
"Agar aap logon ko itni zyada problem hai, Karthik ke yaha rehne se, mein usse le kar humare purrane flat mein chali jaungi, khyal rakh lungi", she said sternly
"Naira, tumhe kya lagta hai, mein apne kittu ko khud se dur bhejna chati hoon", asked Dadi.
"Toh kyun bhej rahi hai aap usse dadi", cried Naira
"Ussi ki bhalayi ke liye", Dadi reasoned
"Karthik ko humare pyaar, humare saath zarorat hai. Mujhe lagta, meri family na sahi, uski khud ki family, toh mere Karthik ko support karegi.

Naira left with Karthik. The two were on their way to GV, when they saw an accident taking place. A truck smashed a car. Naira was taken back to the previous accident, even Karthik seemed restless, but after a while Naira calmed him down.
-------------
"Teddy no cry", Karthik wiped her tears, but they continued to flow down and that made him restless, he never liked tears in her eyes, even today in this condition of his he couldn't bear it.
"Baby, teddy ko promise karo tum kabhi teddy se dur nahi jaoge", Naira asked and Karthik promise
"Teddy bhi baby ko promise karti hai, ke woh kissi ko bhi apne baby ko dur nahi le janne degi", she said hugging him tightly.
Her tears continued to stream down as the days events played in her head over and over again, the thought if parting from Karthik breaking her.
"Teddy why cry", asked Karthik
"Teddy, mendak ko miss kar rahi hai. Apne mendak ko jo teddy ko humesha smile karata his, strong banata hai", she answered
"Baby ko mendak pasand nahi but teddy ke liye baby, mendak dhundega", said Karthik sweetly.
"Mera mendak ayega ne, ab mujh mein aur taqat nahi hai, tumhari Sherni kamzor pad rahi hai. Usse apne mendak, apne pyaar ki zarorat hai. Please your Jaan needs you. Krishna ji mere Karthik ko mujhe wapas dijiye.", She pleaded.
