Pooja
After that incident I don’t come out of my room for almost two days, it's just Mala Tai that comes and gives me food.I have stopped eating food and just surviving on water. I feel that if I start eating food he will again taunt me and think of me as a freeloader. I am feeling so tired and exhausted. I feel that I have no purpose in life, no one will care if I leave this world, no one will shed a drop of tear as well.

Pooja is lost in her world, meanwhile in the living room
Arush
(Author- Surprised seeing his POV, just a reminder that Arush & Anu [Ananya] are Abhi & Avika’s children)
Arush- Come Anu lets go and eat lunch, I had told mala aunty to prepare your favorite chicken curry, lets go.
Anu- wait bahiyu
Arush - What happened Anu
Anu- Bhaiyu, tomorrow in school, we are celebrating Mother’s day
Arush - So…
Anu- Bhaiyu (makes puppy face), you not understanding, our teacher has told us we have to bring our mother with us to participate in the contest, and the winner will get a beautiful doll. I want that doll
Arush - Anu… tell your teacher our mother is no more and withdraw your name from the competition
Anu- But bhaiyu….
Arush - Nothing doing, I know what is going on in this small brain of yours, but remember that we have only 1 mom and she is dead…. No one can take her place and I'll not let anyone replace her (looks angrily at Anu)
Anu - (gets a bit scared) okay bhaiyu
Arush- (looks at Anu and See's her scared face and says) Anu, I don't want you to get scared, but remember we have only one mom
Anu - Yes bhaiyu
Arush - and about the doll, I'll tell Dad to bring you a pretty and beautiful doll, you don't need any other doll (smiles and looks adoringly at Anu).....
At the end you are Arush baby doll,
Anu - (starts smiling) Yes, my handpump bhaiyu
Arush - Handpump (looks suprised)
Anu - Ha bhaiyu, I heard mala tai, telling driver uncle he is Handpump (starts laughing)
Arush - why will Mala Tai tell driver uncle Handpump (and then it strikes him) ohh I guess you mean to Handsome
Anu - No no you are Handpump, my bhaiyu is Handpump not Hand..suumm (and starts dancing)
Arush - (looking at her lovingly , and trying to correct her & not stop but no avail) okay Anu, Chalo let's go to eat food
