At night – 12:00 AM
Kapoor mansion poori tarah shaant tha. Har taraf andhera aur sannata.
Surbhi gehri neend mein thi ki achanak—
“AHHHH…!!!”
Woh ek jhatke mein uth baithi. Saans tez thi, poora chehra paseene se bheega hua.
Aankhon se aansu beh rahe the, jaise koi uski jaan le raha ho.
Usne apne seene par haath rakha—
“Nahi… nahi…” woh kaanpte hue boli.
Tabhi Sid bhi uski cheekh sun kar uth gaya.
“Biwi ji! Kya hua? Aap theek ho?”
Surbhi kuch bol hi nahi pa rahi thi. Bas roti ja rahi thi 😭
Sid ne usse sambhalte hue kaha,
“Shhh… shaant ho jaiye. Pehle pani pi lijiye.”
Pani peene ke baad, Surbhi thodi sambhli aur boli—
“Sid… maine sapne mein kisi ki parchai dekhi…”
Uski awaaz kaanp rahi thi.
“Ek aurat… uska chehra dikh nahi raha tha… par uski aankhein… bhagwan… woh hamare bete ko— Kiansh ko maarne aa rahi thi 😰”
Sid thoda ruk gaya, phir softly bola,
“Biwi ji, bas sapna tha. Aap zyada soch rahi hain.”
Surbhi ne Sid ka haath zor se pakad liya—
“Sid ji, mera mann bahut ghabra raha hai. Please… Kiansh ko Mumbai mat bhejiye. Please…” 😭
Sid ne uske sar par haath rakhte hue kaha,
“Lekin-wekin kuch nahi. Subah baat karenge. Ab so jaiye.”
Surbhi chup toh ho gayi…
par neend uski aankhon se koso door thi.
🌅 Next Morning – Breakfast Scene (Improved)
Subah sab dining table par the. Mahaul normal dikh raha tha.
Tabhi servant glass mein pani le aata hai—
CHHHHHAAANNNGGG!!!
Glass haath se chhoot kar zameen par girta hai aur tukdon mein bikhar jata hai.
Surbhi ka chehra safed pad jata hai.
Uska haath kaanpne lagta hai.
“Dekha Sid ji… kal se apshagun pe apshagun ho rahe hain…” 😰
“Please… Kiansh ko mat jaane dijiye.”
Sid thoda irritated tone mein bola,
“Apshagun jaisi koi cheez nahi hoti. Aap khud ko dara rahi hain.”
Kiansh muskurate hue bola,
“Mom, don’t worry. Mujhe kuch nahi hoga.”
Surbhi muskurane ki koshish karti hai…
par uski aankhon mein darr abhi bhi zinda tha.
✈️ Airport Scene (Extended)
Jaane se pehle Surbhi Kiansh ke maathe par tika lagati hai.
Uski aankhon se aansu gir padte hain.
“Beta… apna dhyan rakhna.”
Kiansh usse hug karta hai—
“Aap bhi apna khayal rakhna, maa.”
Jaise hi Kiansh gate ke andar jaata hai,
Surbhi ka dil zor se dhadakta hai.
Achaanak…
uske kaan mein koi phusphusata hai—
“Woh ja raha hai…”
Surbhi palat kar dekhti hai—
koi nahi.
