Abhi dropped her at her hostel and drove in jet speed to Malhotra Mansion. He reached there, parked his car went running inside Fab5 Raj and Neyonika were sitting in the hall and talking when he ran to Neyonika and sat on his knees hugged her from her stomach and started crying like a baby.

Neyonika: Kya hua mere baby ko? (se asked lovingly but Abhi did not reply instead he jut hold her more tightly a mother was all that he needed just now! her care, her love, tough Abhi lost his mother but Neyonika has always been there. Abhi's Condition was making Raj and Neyonika worried as they had no idea about Nandini yet but the younger clan understood his inner turmoil. Manik sat next to him and creased his back lovingly which made Abhi to loosen his grip on Neyonika, everyone except Neyonika was sitting besides him on the floor)
