Payu was conscious and she was scared.  She had a weird dream that her Mummy died and she could not recollect anything. She was on IV and Sunil had gone home to freshen up. Get her some brunch and some clothes. She just needed good care so Payu had to relax at Bajaj's home. She was crying and screaming. She felt like an Orphan and it was just the venom effect. Dr Karthik entered in and with his stethoscope check her heart beat. Payu felt he was harming her and she could see his face was like a demon. His grinning teeth and oval eyes scared her.  She was so scared that she punched his back and pushed him from the bed. He was wailing in pain and yet to cheer her up,  he asked :

"kaunse chakki ka atta Katti Ho? " (What you eat to be strong?) "

"I hate you. " Payu said and threw a flower pot on him. It hit his head and he was bleeding.

Dr Karthik ran to Dr Bajaj's cabin.

"The patient is getting violent sir. " he reported.

Dr Bajaj called Sunil and asked him to come home immediately. He did not say much and Sunil was worried for his princess. What if something happens to her?  He could not stop crying... He lit a lamp and prayed for speedy recovery of his child.

He always found it funny when his mother cried when he was ill in his school -college days. On vacation he always got high temperature at Karad home. The reason being the chilly climate there. He had spent half of his life in hostel and there he hardly got sick. He got 100% attendance and teachers appreciated his immunity power but as soon as he got home he will be sick for few days. His mother looked worried.  Now he was understanding the pain of parenting with his daughter critically ill. He wanted to drive his car 🚗 in full speed but haste is waste.  He packed her favourite pastry and chocolate.  She should eat what she love?And he packed some fruits and juices if Dr Bajaj took objections.  He wore Payu's favourite Pink shirt and washed his face with ice cold water. He was tired and needed sleep.  He forgot to inform Pinky and Dr Bajaj had already informed her. She was angry with Sunil and she hurriedly drove her car to Dr Bajaj's residence.  Dr Bajaj was leaning on his chair.

Dr Bajaj was angry with Pinky.

"Are you a kid Pinky Sunil Mahavansi?" Dr Bajaj chided.

Pinky did not understand what she had done now? Bajaj told her that she was drunk and the same example she passed to her daughter.  Her daughter was poisoned and someone is having a revenge towards her family. He also told her to correct her behaviour towards Sunil. She was rude to him last night when she gained consciousness.  She pulled his hair and cheeks; she scratched over his face and the same violent behaviour her daughter showed with Dr. Kartik. Payu was on sedation.  Soon Sunil reached and he was surprised to see Pinku.  She frowned and blamed him for not taking care of his daughter.

"A mother is more important than a father. " she remarked in anger.

"Pinky  you are just like an instrument, a name sake mother and for Payu,  I am father and mother both... Just because of you... " Sunil argued, blamed and pointed his fingers towards his wife.

Both were barking like dogs and Dr Bajaj tried to calm them both.

Pinky pushed Sunil and barged into the room where Payu slept.  She brusted into tears and kissed Payu on her cheeks.

An hour passed and Payu gained consciousness.  She was shocked seeing Pinky.

"Ghost... ghost..." she screamed.

Sunil heard she was shouting and he rushed into their room. 

Payu sat scared on the corner of the bed.

"Papa don't leave me alone. " Payu hugged Sunil.  She was crying and Sunil too was crying. Pinky was angry and she felt both father and daughter are playing drama. They are against her.  She slammed the door and left crying.

"Papa - Mumma -Ghost... " Payu was going on and on...

Sunil did not understand what she was talking?

"Papa be strong. I know you feel alone but I don't mind you marry again. " Payu expressed her thoughts.

" I am not understanding what you are talking baby?" Papa kissed her forehead.  He made her eat fruits.  Dr Bajaj put her to sleep with some medication. Her mind need to rest but she seems to be in trauma.  Dr Bajaj was explaining the side effects of the venom they extracted from her body. It is giving her Amnesia effect.  Sunil told doctor that he can't understand why is she calling a ghost? 

"She will wake in two hours. She will feel fresh then. I will talk to her and thank God she is out of danger. " Dr Bajaj consoled Sunil.

Sunil received a call from inspector Ravi.  There was a murder of a girl in their neighbourhood.  It must be Poonam but the body is charred, informed the police.  Roshibha had texted Sunil that there was a theft at her home. All her ornaments were stolen.  Sunil did not understand what the mess was all about? He just prayed that the dead girl should not be Poonam.  Death of Payu's friend gave him stress and how would his daughter cope it? 

He told Ravi about Payu getting poisoned but it was unethical for a 15 year old to drink. She will be in trouble but Ravi assured Sunil that he will get the culprit arrested in next 48 hours. Sunil called Rajat but his number was switched off.  He asked Ravi to send his secret team to investigate on unknown number from where he got Payu's nude pics. He also told that he suspected a woman called Asha. He decided to check the CCTV footage of the party.  Roshi decided to help him.
