In Chattuje Sadan....

Mrinu saw BukkuDa's car leave from behind the tree just opposite to the House gate. But she was waiting for someone else...

Shubhra comes out in her car and then stops near the tree. Mrinu meets her and sits in the car.

Mrinu has covered her whole face and head so that no one recognizes her. Shubhra and Mrinu goes to a temple bit far from their house...

Shubhra: Mrinu tumne mujhe bohot zyada tang karna shuru kar diya hai. Ab main tumhare jhase mein nahi aanewali. Tumhe pata hai humara aise milna kitna khatarnaak ho sakta hai?

Mrinu: Kakima, Bukku ke operation ke liye... Main kabhi yaha aise nahi aati. Mera aap ko tang karne ka irada nahi tha. Uske operation ke liye 2 lakh rupaye chahiye. Main agar arrange kar pati toh kabhi bhi aapko tang nahi karti. Doctors ne kaha hai ke ab Bukku ke zinda rehne ke liye yeh surgery bohot zaruri hai...

Shubhra: Achha, toh kisne kaha tumse ke tumhare Bukku ke zinda rehne na rehne se mujhe koi fark padta hai. Jab woh paida huya tha tabhi maine tumse kaha tha ki mujhse kisi tarah ki aur madad ki umeed mat rakhna. Ab mere paas aane ka kya matlab hai?

Tumhara Bukku jiye ya mare, meri bala se. Maine tumhari jitni madad karni thi, kar chuki. Maine tumhe tabhi kaha tha ki usse anath ashram bhej dete hai. Lekin tumne mere pairo pe gir ke mujhse bheek maangi ke tum use palna chahti ho toh ab yeh natak main bardasht nahi karungi.

Mrinu: Kakima, main aap ke saare paise louta dungi. Bas abhi meri madad kar dijiye, pleeease. (she started to cry)

Shubhra: Mrinmayi maine koi khairat khana nahi kholke rakha hai... agar tumhe itni hi zarurat hai toh approach some NGOs. Itni badi rakam main tumhe kis binah par dedu. Aur itne paise uss adh mare bachche par kharch karogi aur woh phir bach hi jayega iski kya guarantee hai.. Aur tum mujhe paise loutaogi... tum mujhe kaha se paise loutaogi. Tumse apne aur uss bachche ke kharche toh pure hote nahi....

And then Shubhra left.

Few Minutes ago....

Biren got a call from a friend...

Biren: Arey, Robi aaj tujhe meri yaad kaise aayi?

Robi: Arey there is this cute sa bachcha who has been admitted in the hospital for heart surgery... I wanted your help with this case. Tu aa sakta hai kya? He is just 3 year old boy with a whole in his heart. Tu ataa toh...

Biren: Mujhe tere hospital ka address likhwa zara...haa theek hai (while he wrote the address). Lekin tujhe pata kaise chala ke main..

Robi: ke tu aaj US se loutnewala hai. Choyonika ne pure society mein halla machaya huya hai ki tu usse se shadi karne ke liye aayaa hai. Bohot jaldi tere gale mein shaadi ka phanda padne wala hai mere dost.

Biren: Phanda toh padega zarur par kiske gale mein yeh dekhnewali baat hai. (and both Robi and Biren laughed... but Biren meant it)

Biren left for the hospital... And was thinking about the baby he was going to meet. There was an instinctive feeling within him towards the baby. He couldn't understand it well.

In the hospital...

Robi : Biren this our special friend....

Biren: (looked at the boy and lovingly kept a hand on his head) Hello little friend. Mera naam Biren hai... main aapke Doctor uncle ka dost hu...

Aapka naam kya hai?

Bukku: (smiled broadly) Friend yani Bondhu? Aap mele Bondhu banne wale ho? ( Biren nodded his head) MELA NAAM BUKKU HAI, BONDHU...
