Part 1:
She returned to her home after 7 days . While passing by CA's room, she peeped inside. She got a glimpse of CA lying beside her husband, both fast asleep while MAAya was sleeping resting her head beside CA and holding her little hand. For a brief moment, she felt uneasy seeing MAAya sleeping so close to her daughter and husband. Though she is very grateful to MAAya for volunteering to look after her family, still somewhere inside her she is repenting leaving her family when they needed her the most with MAAya. After months of custody battle with MAAya, the court finally granted joint custody of CA to both MaAn and MAAya. Now, CA leaves with both her families alternatively. The arrangement is working perfectly as MAAya is very cooperative and wants the best for her daughter. Luckily, MAAya is not behaving like a rival, she is very co-operative and the three of them are co-parenting easily. Life was going smooth until 7 days back AnupaMaa had to leave for SH to take care of Toshu. Toshu sold one of their neighbours a fake property which resulted in him getting beaten badly by the neighbour. He broke few of his bones. AnupaMaa could not leave his son in such a state alone. She shifted to SH for a while leaving her daughter with fever with Anuj. Though Anuj did not stop her, it was evident from his countenance that he is very unhappy with this arrangement. But what could she have done? Anuj is a responsible father. He can single-handedly take care of CA. But, who will take care of Toshu at SH? Samar, Kavya, and Kinjal are at work during the day. She can not burden Baa and Bapuji with her son. Mister Shah has not taken care of anyone ever. So she had to be there for her son. Anuj was managing their daughter well until he also caught a fever. Anu was caught between her two families. MAAya came as an angel at that time. She volunteered to take care of both Anuj and CA though it was not her time of the month to take care of CA. While MAAya focused on CA and Anuj, she concentrated fully on Toshu. MAAya’s care was visible. She noticed the worries and sorrows in Anuj’s eyes were gone on video call after MAAya shifted to KM. She was grateful to MAAya for taking her place but why is she now wishing she never gave MAAya her place? Her heart is yearning to snuggle into the bed between her husband and daughter and cuddle them. But, there seems to be an invisible wall between her family and herself. This bed has always welcomed her. Many nights she returned exhausted to her house only to fall asleep in this bed. But, today the bed looks so unwelcoming. Maybe, because she never made any effort to make the bed where she slept, today the bed has no space for her.
