Leena: Mr and Mrs Oberoi? Hi my name is Leena and I'm here to take the child for a small test

A young nurse coming their way caught the attention of Anika and Shivaay. They had been waiting in the room for some time before anyone came to them.

Anika: Priyanka aane wali thi

Confused, Anika wondered where her nanand was

Leena: voh test room mein hai, she sent me to get Chutki

Shivaay and Anika turned to each other after hearing the nurse

Shivaay: tum jao unke saath

Leena: actually iss examination ke liye, parents aren't allowed

Not fully convinced, Anika agreed anyways and said by to her little one as she went with the nurse.
Around 10 minutes had passed when Priyanka opened the door, pulling gloves of her hands.

Priyanka: sorry thora time laga, emergency case tha aur Dr Kalpana busy thi

Her eyes scanned the room for Chutki

Priyanka: meri Titli kaha hai?

Shivaay: abhi abhi voh nurse ke saath gayi

Priyanka: konsa nurse?

She got more suspicious as each second passed

Anika: uska naam Leena tha

Priyanka: Bhaabi sirf ek Leena hai iss wing mein, aur voh cafeteria mein kaam karti. 60 years old she is

Shivaay: voh Leena definitely 60 ki nahi thi

Anika: iska matlab Chutki?

They all became extra worried

Anika: meri bachi...meri Chutki kaha gayi.

With a jerk, she sat up fully awake. Breathing heavy, elevated pulse, she was clearly distressed and panicking. Her sudden movement also woke Shivaay up as well, who panicked seeing her.

Shivaay: Ani?

Anika: huh?

Shivaay: shayad tune burha sapna dekha

Anika: paani

She demanded for the glass kept on a Shivaay's side of the bed and gulped the liquid down in go.

Shivaay: Anika relax

Anika: No, I'm fine. Mein abhi aati

She soon disappeared and tip-toed to the Kid's room. Her whole body relaxed and let loose seeing her baby on the bed. She was smiling in her sleep, as she lay alongside Radhika in a crib and Gauri beside it.
Anika travelled back to her room satisfied that it was all a bad dream. He invited her to sleep resting her head on his chest.

Shivaay: so jao

It took time for her to close her eyes, but it was almost as if she immediately fell into a deep slumber the moment her eyes closed.

In the morning, following breakfast and freshening up....

Shivaay: aaja Radhika

He called out to the baby as Om gave her to him.

Gauri: vese meine already feed kiya, lekin agar bhook lagti toh she can have baby food. 6 months se khaa sakte, right?

Even though she looked over at Om, she didn't wait for his reply.

Gauri: hum vese 1-2 ghante mein vaapis aayenge

Om: shayad tu bhool rhi hai ki Shivaay has a child. Usko pata hoga, iss sab ke baare mein
