In morning

Dadi came near dining table and saw only tejvi, Pinky, Shakti were present not any youngster

"Shakti where is Shivaay and Anika did they arrived yesterday? Are they fine", asked dadi

Shakti came towards dadi and helped her to sit

"Yes mummy ji they are in room", said Shakti

"And Omru? Gauri, Bhavya?", Asked dadi with questioning eyes

Tej smiled and sat near her

"Don't take stress mummy ji. They all are fit and fine. I think they were late in sleeping so they didn't woke up till now. Gauri and Bhavya are in kitchen", said Tej and gave her a glass of water

After drinking water dadi saw Gauri and Bhavya

"Can you both go in Shivaay and Anika's room to check whether they are fine or not? Yesterday whether was not good", requested dadi

"Ji dadi ji I will go", said Gauri and went to check whether they are fine or not

*****

Gauri came and started knocking on door. Hearing knocking sounds Anika woke up from sleep and remembered alternative universe again. She looked towards him who was still sleeping

Anika gulped a glass of water to calm herself as that world looked so real and she is still again remembering those moments

"Jiju , Shivaay bhaiya are you both fine", asked Gauri

"Yes Gauri coming", said Anika and noticed time

"10 :30 AM... This much late. And this headache", whispered Anika holding her head

"Shivaay wake up. It's already late", she said and tapped his shoulders

"I don't want tk drop Ansh to school please go yourself", said Shivaay in sleep

Anika remembered they had a child in that universe. She smiled with tears as that universe was worst but best too because she became mother there. She started remembering those beautiful moments with Shivaay when his phone rang

"Shivaay are you going to woke up or should I throw water", asked Anika angrily

"I am awake ",said Shivaay and sat lazily

"Ansh?", Asked Shivaay as he is still unable to believe that was just his imagination. Ansh was not real

"Shivaay....th..that was our imagination.. world of Mehir Awasthi", whispered Anika with tears and looked aside to hide her tears

"Hmm...yes I just remembered... That really looked so real Anika that...that I I thought I have child name Ansh... I want to go back there", stammered Shivaay and hugged Anika

"We can't but if you want we can relieve same moments again hana....also now get ready everyone is waiting for us", she said and wiped his fresh tears

"Everyone?", He asked blankly. Anika understood that he is confused between both life's so she kissed his forehead

"Yes family dadi, Omru, Gauri, Bhavya, choti ma, chote papa, badi ma, bade papa everyone", she said and cupped his face with tears

"Don't cry please? I just thought they are dead", he whispered and looked down

"Shivaay it's reality and everyone is with you. They all are waiting for us. Even choti ma papa too", she said

Shivaay stood up and straightened his dress before coming out. Anika also came behind him as he may behave weirdly with them being confused

Shivaay came in hall and saw everyone sitting with empty plates as they were waiting for them

"Shivaay Anika", said Pinky and stood up to meet them.

"See I missed your this marriage too. I wanted to see your marriage", said Pinky. She was talking about eid but Shivaay misunderstood it as their marriage in alternative universe

"Mom I missed you. In that marriage you were...", said Shivaay and hugged Pinky tightly. He was about to talk about her death when Anika interrupted him

"You were there. As your blessings are always with us", she said and took her blessings

Pinky was unable to give her blessings as Shivaay didn't left her

"Shivaay what happened? Did you saw any bad dream?", Asked Pinky

Shivaay broke hug and went near Shakti ignoring Pinky's question

"D...dad d...don't fight with mom ever", he said and hugged him.

Pinky came near Anika and hugged her

"What happened to him?", Asked Pinky

"Mom vo...we need time to explain everything as it's a long story. Also I am having headache.. we didn't even freshened ourselves so you guys can have breakfast", said Anika and looked down

"Bhabhi you both just went for 3-4 hours. What are you talking about long story?", Teased Rudra

"It was more than 10 years and you are talking about 4 hours seriously. Don't you remember anything?", Asked Shivaay angrily.

"What are you saying Shivaay? That too angrily without any reason", asked Om

Anika came near Shivaay as he is acting totally weird

"Shivaay they don't know anything. Calm down please try to differentiate between dream and reality", said Anika and made him stand in front of Omru

"I will kill that Mehir Awasthi", thought Anika angrily

Shivaay was about to go when they holded his hand

"Atleast tell us what we did. Why are you running away from us?", Asked Om with tears

"Yes otherwise I will not take my Protein Shake today", said Rudra dramatically and looked towards Anika for an answer

Shivaay looked towards both of them and stared them for a minute and realised that Om these Omru are different. He remembered old moments when Rudra was addicted to protein shake

"Rudra... Old Rudra....and you old Om artist hana?", Asked Shivaay and hugged both of them tightly

"No I am not old", shouted Rudra like a baby

"Bhabhi did bhaiya faced memory loss? Why he is calling me old? From where I look old and Om he is artist from a long time so why he is asking that .... He is Shivaay bhaiya na?", Asked Rudra dramatically

Shivaay smiled seeing his antics but his headache was making him go mad

"From every angle you look old oldie hana Shivaay", said Om and pulled his another hand for hifive but Shivaay didn't noticed that as he was staring Tej

"B...bade papa...", He whispered and shivered when he saw his smirk

Actually Tej was laughing and smiling seeing drama of Rudra but Shivaay mistook it as his smirk

"Why are you still here to ruin family? Just leave. I hate you. I am not scared I am not scared", shouted Shivaay and left from there hurriedly

"Now what the hell you did?", Shouted Om

"Om. Just keep quiet", said Anika but Om was getting angry

"No bhabhi. This person always creates problem. I could have guessed before that he was the reason but I thought he is changed", said Om angrily

"Mind your tongue Omkara. I don't know what happened to him ask Anika. I swear I am not reason. I am really changed", said Tej

"Yes Om calm down. You don't know anything. Actually Mehir Awasthi challenged that if we didn't saw eachother in our first meet then we won't be together
But we said that you are wrong and we can prove it
So he made us travel another world where we spent ten years", she said and sat near dadi as Shivaay totally ignored her unknowingly

"What 10 years? Was I old bhabhi?", Asked Rudra. Om smacked him on his back and asked

"He is mad. Did something worst happened?", Asked Om and noticed changes in her expressions

Anika settled her hairs and looked aside

"No..it's just we had a baby named Ansh and he is remembering them. You all died so he was scared", lied Anika and hugged dadi

"Bhabhi I know you are lying. It's ok if you can't tell but atleast have breakfast and for him too", said Om

Anika nodded

"Will come after 5 minutes.... With Shivaay", she said and left from there

_____

After 5 minutes Anika came with Shivaay and made him sit on his chair. Anika managed to send Tej away and stood near him

"Shivaay dadi", said Anika and pointed towards her

Shivaay looked there and went towards dadi with slow steps

"I am felling it as a dream", he whispered

"Shivaay have breakfast and after that we will visit Mehir Awasthi to ask how to forget this world", said Anika and made him sit on his seat again

"Hmm but I don't want to forget some things especially somedays", he said

"O...ok ", said Anika

"I need some days Anika I don't want to go out", said Shivaay to which Anika nodded again

____

After few days

They both met Mehir Awasthi who didn't let Shivaay come near him as he was trying to kill him

"Ok fine you both will forget most of the moments but you can save some in an album to remember those . Those moments will not confuse you", said Mehir Awasthi and freezed them again

He gave them time to take some moments out for an album and cleared memories of redux
