The blade was hovering over his left hand's median nerve for a very long time. His right hand was shaking, his body full up of sweat . The weather outside was calm not at all reflecting the turmoil inside him. He was in his office room. The room he had entered after one month . A month after the anchor of his life had left him to wander across the limitless ocean alone. He was scared , very ,very scared. Most of the time he could not even look into the eyes of his children whom he had avoided like plague. But he was not scared about them . He knew that his brother Dev and his wife Nayantara will love them as their own. He hated to admit that he was a coward . But he not ashamed to admit that with his wife's death there was no one to help him rise over his cowardice. He could feel her presence around him, begging him to stop. Did she not want him to come to her, stay with her like he had promised. He felt as if some unseen force had pulled his right hand away and thrown his children's photo in front of him. The frame had cracked .He could not even see his son's face properly. His entire body was shaking with the phone ringing next to him.

What is it Miss pinky.

Pinky: Sorry for disturbing u sir.. It is very urgent..

Spit it out..

I have a call on hold from Juvenile center.. They say that they have your son in their custody...

What the hell..

I have already called Arjun Sir.. He will reach there in 10 min.. Ur car is ready...

Dread filled his heart . He was mentally incapable of dealing with one more loss. He literally cursed himself again. It was his fault, he was so engrossed in himself that he had ignored his kids and today he was also going to do a dastardly act without giving them another thought. He was praying all the gods up there to keep his son safe. What about his daughter.. Where was she.. Both Dev and nayantara's phone was unreachable.

He rushed into the Juvenile Center looking for his son filled with unknown dread.

Officer : So you are finally here Mr. Khurana. There is a boy here who tried stealing in front of a police officer. He told us to call his parents to sign his release bond.

Stealing... my son would never do it..

Officer : All the parents say the same thing...lets call ur son in..

Just then he saw his son and daughter rushing in with Dev and nayantara followed by Arjun. His Dadi was there too.

Dev: Bhai.. Aap yahan.. Why r u here.. When I heard u are here.. Me n Tara left our Doctor appointment mid way to come here..

Tara : Ji veerji.. Kya hua.. Our phone was switched off in hospital.. Bache mere hi sath the..

Maan hugged his son Aayaam . Are u Okay Aayaam...

Sam: Ji papa.. I was with Chachi.. Looking at her baby pic..

Maansi: Are u still sad papa..

Maan hugged his 4 yr old daughter..I am OK princess..

Nobody noticed that this family reunion was keenly observed by a pair of pre-teen eyes.

Officer : Mr Khurana.. Please sign these bond papers and take ur son..

My Son? I have only 2 kids Officer.. And they are here .. Safe and sound with me.. I told you my son would never steal..I think you mistook me for someone else.. I guess you should call his parents again... I am not his father...

Boy : yes you are...

Everybody stopped in their track.

See kid.. I am not your father... this is the first time we are meeting.. Are u scared here...Do you want me to call ur mother and father.. I will stay with u for some more time till ur parents come..

Boy: u r my father .. I will not let you abandon me n Mom again..

What.. Are u out of ur mind.. Maan looked at the boy again .. He was wearing costly clothes.. He did not look poor.. But why was the kid lying then

Officer: Enough of this drama.. His mother will be coming here soon.. She will finish this drama.. I have other things to look into too..

Just then Maan noticed that the boy moved towards the door and hugged a curly haired woman. Curly hair sometimes brought bad memories.. No Maan.. Come out of it.. No one can do that again to you.. He mentally remembered his wife's word.. Do not generalize..

Boy: See Mom.. I found my dad..

All the eyes turned to that woman. Arjun could feel Maan's initial shock and then rage. Maan was white as a sheet.

Boy : Did I not tell you Miss Geet Handa that one day I will find my Dad without your help and Maaneet Handa always wins.

The revelation left no doubt in Arjun's mind over the identity of the woman who had almost broken his friend Maan and in turn caused so much of pain to his deceased best friend Ayesha Khurana.

*****************************************

Geet had rushed leaving her work after she had received the call about her son. She was hell worried about her son's latest antics. It seemed her son had made it his life's mission to give heart attach to his mom and kill her pre maturely. He had made sure that she was constant fixture of parents teacher meetings. This habit of his has not stopped after changing schools, changing cities, changing country and even changing continents. But she did not blame him. It was his way of dealing with his pain and anger. No matter how much she tried she was not able to minimize it.Most of the time it was directed at her and those times she felt that she deserved it too. She deserved it for her mistakes, her SIN.

The moment she hugged her son , she felt a pin drop silence in the room. She could see a lot of people standing at a corner. After listening what her son was saying, she felt that her heart had come to her mouth. She felt like she has been choked by invisible fate and she was thrashing for breath. She did not dare look at anyone. God let it be a nightmare. Her throat was extremely dry. She could feel her son trying to pull her up.

Dadi: I think I know you... I have seen u way back in Maan's college..Maan isn't she your batchmate..

Maan refused to look at them. He was so angry..that disgusted feeling started coming back again... as if someone was crawling on his skin.. The touch... he then suddenly felt that his wife's touch was trying to calm him down.. But that could not help for long. He then saw that chit of a boy touching his Dadi's feet..

Boy : Hi I am Maaneet Handa .. Ur grandson's son.

Dadi : What...

Boy : U can confirm it from my Mom..

Now it was Geet's turn to avoid everyone. Not before she stole a glance at Maan. She could see that he was rigid and holding his children close to his body. Infact his son had realized his father's discomfort and was giving both Geet and her son deadly glare. As if he was trying to protect his father and sister from her. She started hating herself even more. What has she done to Maan. She was so lost in her thoughts that she could not answer her son.

Boy: Mom say something.. So u will stay quiet today too...Lets go for DNA test then

Nobody knew what happened until everyone saw that Aayam had pushed that boy to the floor..

Aayam : if my dad says that u r not his son.. Then u r nobody..

Zor ka jhatka .. zor se..
