Ap kya mera beta, mera beta keh rahe hain? Aarav hamara bhi beta hai. Khushi said, making Arnav roll his eyes. (Why are you saying my son, my son? Aarav is my soon too!)

Tumhara beta? Agar tum usse apna beta manti hoti tu us ki khushi ko is tarhan mat nazar andaaz krti. Aik Ladoo hi tu tha aur - (your son? If you considered him your son then you won't have look passed his happiness. It was only sweet and -)

Baat ladoo ki nahi hai, Arnavji. Baat asool ki hai. Poja se pehle Ladoo nai khana chahiye, ap is baat ko itna barha kyn rahe hain? Khushi tried to make her point. (It's not about SWEET. It's about rule. Eating sweets before prayer is forbidden. Why are you stretching it too much?)

Arnav Singh Raizada kay bete ko in sb cheezon pe amal karne ki koi zarorat nai hai. Arnav stated in a matter-of-fact voice. (ASR's son don't have to follow such things)

Wo jab jo chahe kar skta hai, aur tum.use.nahi.roko.gi. Arnav gritted every word. (He can do whatever he wants. And. You. Won't. Stop. Him.)

Kyn? Kya hamara koi haq nai hai apne bete par? Khushi clutched his hand. (Why? Don't I have any right on him?)

But Arnav pushed her away, Han koi haq nai hai tumhara. Pehle us ki Ma bano, us k baad us per apne haq jatana. (Yes, you don't have any right. First act like her mother, than impose your right on him)

Khushi was shocked at his words, Main us ki ma nahi hon? She whispered in a broken tone. Her heart gripped in terror. (I am not his mother?)

Han tum us ki Ma nahi hon. Tumne usse no mahine apne pait main nahi rkha. Us ki feelings ka koi andaza nai hai tumhe. Kisi ko bhi "mera beta" kehne se wo tumhara beta nai ban jaye ga. (Yes, you are not his mother. You didn't kept him in your womb for 9 months. You don't realize his feelings. Saying "my son" don't make him your son!)

Ma banna aata nai hai, aur mjh se behas kar rahi ho! (Don't know how to become a mother, and arguing with me.)

Khushi was broken, her insides churning with fear and sadness. She felt difficulty in breathing. Her eyes shedding tears.

Minutes passed and Arnav stood there gazing at the wall, controlling his anger. None spoke.

After a while of composing himself, Arnav turned towards Khushi.

Seeing her gulping for air, Arnav recalled his words and his eyes widened in shock, Dammit, main ye kese keh skta hun. He thought painfully. (How could I say like that?)

One look at Khushi and Arnav just wanted to kill himself for hurting her.

Khush- he tried to come closer but Khushi backed away from him.

Humne ap k liye khud ko kitna badal liya hai Arnavji. Lekin ap ka jab dil chahta hai ap mjhe takleef dete hain. Khushi said, while looking at him. (I changed myself for you. But you always hurt me whenever you wish)

Khushi, mera wo matlab nai tha, I- I- Arnav again tried to bridge the gap between them, but Khushi again took steps backward. (I didn't mean that!)

She stumbled when her legs hit the recliner and instantly Arnav's hand came forward to hold her.

Careful.
