Pune

Deshpande Mansion

Nived was getting furious at the idiot of a merchant who had backed out in the last moment to help the siblings.

He had no idea on how did the diamond merchant could refuse to work with them anymore.

Nived was cautious on his dealing with the merchant and keeping him at bay with his money hungry nature and contacts aboard for a smooth sailing of his diamond business.

He had even risked his own business to procure the rare diamond from one of his spy from the East Europe who had almost lost her life in the process.

But in all this, Nived couldn't decipher on what led to the diamond merchant to make the siblings ride the lonely boat in a stormy sea all by themselves.

As he tried to call the merchant, Nithya was getting restless from her side of the anxiety.

She wanted to make sure if Hardik and Rashmi had recognised her or not. With Nived telling her to not become careless with her curious nature, Nithya could only become more restless.

So, without his knowing, she thought to venture into Mumbai and find out the details about the Joshi family and their ongoing plan which was well hidden from her scan.

Nithya had a hunch about the Joshi offspring and their friends on the lookout for her but to what extent was troubling her.

"...Sheesh!!...how will I deal with this?!!...that idiot is not picking my call!!..." as Nived flipped the phone on the couch, Nithya chuckled making him more angry.

"...leave him!!...we have enough help to deal with this...have you forgotten my ace...huh?!!" as Nithya spelled her hidden spy who was secretly trying to lend them the details about the workings of the Kansya company and its trial.

Nived was rest assured but still he wanted the merchant who was their source of income for a long time.

As they had almost drained out of their finance with feeding the hungry spies and officials, Nived could only hope for a miracle to bounce them back to a normal life.

Nithya's plastic surgery itself costed a bomb for him, with her demanding need to look younger was also tensing him a lot.

"...Relax?!!...that's the last thing we need to do now, Nitu!!...with the bank emptying and the stupid spies asking for more money?!!...it's difficult...we need to nab a big fish...asap!!..." his words made a resentful Nithya turned her face with remorse of the life that she had made for herself.

A whore. That's what she had become. Who cons people and fleas with their loot.

Without thinking much, Nithya agreed to which Nived nodded and went to plan out their next victim. But not before, visiting her darling in the hospital who was asking for her mother.

Kansya Industries ltd. .

VC Cabin

Harish nodded his head on the wishes that he got from his happy looking employees as he traced towards his cabin, puzzling him.

As he entered his cabin, Mrs. Raina handed him the iPad to check on the day's schedule of meetings. She was hesitant on moving one more envelope to her anger streak of a VC; about her brief visit to her hometown in Agra.

But she shrugged it off and hid the envelope behind her and smiled awkwardly at her boss who raised his brow on asking the intrusion.

"...Sir?!!...this also came for you..." as Mrs. Raina handed him the little flower bouquet with a handwritten note. 

He smiled with smelling the fresh bloom of red roses and found a handwritten note from his brand shop 'Prathi Fashion'

The sassy and lovely note confirmed from whom it was from, making him chuckle heartily with humming with a doubt.

As he realised the last word of the note '...btw...bought your love back...' on whom was she referring to as his 'love'.

He joked it as her usual flirty nature and asked the secretary to find the details of this particular customer to send a 'Thank you' note for this beautiful message.

But it did puzzle him on her sudden arrival in the city making him think of a possibility. But the call from his secretary for the meeting, made his mind move that thought aside for a while.

At the café

Kim Taehyung was peacefully having his coffee with listening to the man on the other end of the line who was whining with pain and kind of complaining to him.

"...hyeong?!!...syugahyeonghante hyuga yeonjang jom halago jeonhae juseyo!!...ajigdo neomu ma-eum-i apeuneyo!!..." as Kookie complained to him, Taehyung smiled at his younger one and assured him that he will speak to Suga for his leave extension.

(*"...hyeong?!!...syugahyeonghante hyuga yeonjang jom halago jeonhae juseyo!!...ajigdo neomu ma-eum-i apeuneyo!!..." - "...Hyung?!!...please tell Suga Hyung to extend my leave!!...I am still in immense pain!!..." in Korean language)

Keeping the call, Taehyung sensed an incoming message from his boss which sounded more intense than the last one.

He rubbed his forehead with wetting his lips whenever he would get tensed, which was one in a million. The cool and calm agent Kim Taehyung would never flinch even when a nuclear attack would happen.

Suga had trained him well enough to deal with tension in his own way to find the truth, rather than whining over lost things.

"..Chris?!!...ingia kwenye timu...ndege imefika...tunahitaji kulinda kiota..." as he voiced the code to this friend, Kim Taehyung then cut the call after receiving a hum in return.

(*"..Chris?!!...ingia kwenye timu...ndege imefika...tunahitaji kulinda kiota..." - "..Chris?!!...enter the team...the bird has arrived...we need to protect the nest..." in Swahili language)

"...the bird has arrived...protect the nest..." was the message send in the group by him, as he knew that the time had come to gather the forces.

Nithya was also closing in, as per the reports send by Hwasa; secretly of course. Hwasa was pleaded by Kookie to help out Taehyung who was not getting enough info to move forward with his part of the protection plan.

Joshi Mansion

"...Baba?...why did you come out of your room?!!...you would have called the servants or me, if you wanted anything?!!..." Sanya rushed towards Hemant who was huffing after descending down the stairs, as he smiled at the caring daughter-in-law who was more worried than any of his family members.

"...its fine!...Sanya...just let me come out of the room, once in a while...or I might rust myself!!..." saying so Hemant was made to sit on the soft couch by the servant who was then ordered to make some snacks and juice for the tired looking man.

"...Sanya?...beta...when are you and Hardik going to visit our temple in village?" as Hemant asked Sanya, she was in a fix as to which temple visit was Hemant referring to. As they had done the required puja and offerings at the time of Sandesh being born.

Seeing her puzzled face, Hemant chuckled with replying about their ancestral temple in Pune. To which Sanya answered that Hardik was too busy with the new project and had very little time to even play with Sandesh, to go for temple visit.

Hemant tsked on his son's carelessness and said that he would accompany the mother and child to perform the offerings. It was a tradition in the Joshi family to take the new born to the temple for blessings before his / her first birthday, to ward off evil eye on the baby.

The new mother Sanya creased her brow on thinking about the particular fact and nodded in agreement for the traditional ritual that she was not privy to.

In the evening,

The busy traffic signal

Harish was sending the last message of the day to Hwasa on reporting to duty asap, as Jackson had again gone missing with Taehyung landing weird excuses for his comrade.

Apparently Jackson had been assigned with going on a hunt to find the hidden Nithya, who was apparently sighted by one of their masters. So, with Kookie on bed rest, Jackson was given his responsibility with Hwasa behind the computer to guide and take his intel on the case.

Crash!

"...what the heck?!!...Jigar!!...watch the road...turn off the radio!!..." as Harish scolded the new driver, the jolted driver looked back with a tensed face apologising.

On reviving himself from the jolt, Harish looked over the street to check on the time he would take to reach home.

Just then he saw the laughing Rashmi with a kid on the trolley and someone else too being not visible coz of the crowd.

He smiled with remembering her support in the Pia case and thought for a moment to meet her in the crowding street.

But as his driver was trying to get them out of the busy traffic, Harish thought to call and fix a meeting with his old bestie.

The local hospital

The ICU

Nithya was covering her head with the shrug and trying to hold back her tears, every time she would visit her daughter, Parvati.

"...Mam?...you can come inside..." as the nurse came outside the room with permitting the woman inside the ICU.

As Nithya donned the sterile mask on her nose, she walked inside with a heavy heart on not breaking down.

But as soon as she saw the broken state of her daughter who was in an almost vegetation state, she caught hold of the bed railing before slumping down.

"...Bala?!!..." as she whispered near her face, she could hear only a small groan out of pain.

"...please Mam?!...don't touch the patient!!...she is still..." as the nurse warned on getting the patient infected.

Parvati tried to open her eyes which were still healing with the acid burnt marks and looked over the only person who would visit her. Her mother.

Her eyelids flickered slowly with noticing the woman who was her perhaps strength over the years that she had been on that forsaken bed, since her incident.

The incident which had taken her soul out of her withered, pierced, coerced body by those hyenas.

Those cruel devil's incarnation who ripped her body into pieces and broke every part of her limbs, inside-out.

Her internal organs were only surviving because of the medical equipment and medicines, keeping her alive.

She was a living corpse, wishing for death himself to take her broken soul too. Parvati was healing slowly as the local hospital were only giving the necessary attention. If it was the speciality hospital that Nithya had decided, Parvati would have healed fully long back.

But even death couldn't agree with the poor innocent soul who had fallen prey to the heinous crime being done on her.

Nithya couldn't stop her stuck voice and ran outside as she saw Parvati withering in pain again, making her howl.

The Nurse rushed to the slightly wiggling patient and requested Nithya to move out.

As they tried to reduce the pain, Nithya looked over how her daughter was bought in this pathetic state which she would never wish for even her enemies.

Would she?

Remembering that person, Nithya's eyes redden with revenge and remembered that fateful day when she couldn't rush to help her darling daughter. Parvati who only wished to congratulate her mother and hidden step-father, Hemant Joshi.
