"You should be a philosopher" Avinash after a pause can't help but say.

"hmm, so can this philosopher can say one more thing?" Meera questions.

"If I say no, are you going to listen to me?" Avinash replied.

"Here you go, of course, I am not going to listen"

"Okay, okay, I have a big heart tell me what you wanted to say," Avinash said with a smile.

"Hmmm, you might always think I am a bad mom, but the truth is who defines who is a good mom or a bad mom. Parents also become parents the first time when they give birth right? They also teach from their mistakes and other people's experiences. Indeed what I did with Aarav previously is not good, but still, it doesn't mean that I don't love him. My love for him is real, he is the only family I ever have, the only gift I ever get.

So please don't judge parents from textbook format, don't see your mom as a deity, because she is human too, she is heartbroken because of her husband, and somehow your sexuality being like him, provokes her sadness, the anger she has that time, is not on you, but on her fate. So don't make her a villain, try to be in her shoes. If you are at her place at that time you might react the same way" Meera is not only telling this to Avinash but herself.

Sometimes what you trying to say or give advice to someone is also for yourself. In her past life, always thinks that why her mom listen to what their relative said, why she won't fight, but later when Meera herself is not able to save her child, she realized that unless you are in that person's situation you don't understand how difficult things are.

And here in this life too, she now considers herself this Meera, so she sometimes feels guilty for her deeds. But here she is, the first time being a parent, so making mistakes is not avoidable.

"..... I understand" Avinash replied. It is not like he never thinks about himself, it just sometimes you need to hear it from someone else. Just like today, he often considers announcing to the world that he is gay, but he gets scared, but today when Meera analyzes everything, he feels like nothing is difficult.

Right now also Meera's words provoke him to think about his mom and brother's perspective. He never thought that the person whom he can talk to so clearly is not his family or his friend, not even someone who matches his intelligence level, but a person whom he dislikes. Or he can say that he is used to dislike.

But now he doesn't hate Meera anymore, instead, he started to like her a little.

While they are talking they reach home. The housekeeper uncle and the caretaker aunty come forward with some helpers to put the things in the storeroom. While the aunty carries Aarav in her arms. Avinash and Meera still have some little things to talk about, so they are walking while talking. The atmosphere between them is too good that they look like they know each other for a long time.

When Meera is near the door, Avinash suddenly hugs her.

"Thank you for all," Avinash said and then free her from his arms and patted her head and then he left her there. Meera doesn't understand why he suddenly hugs her. She wanted to ask but decided not to. Maybe her advice is too good for him. Thinking this Meera also goes towards her room. What she doesn't know is Aditya is watching them.

This is also the reason why Avinash hug her. He already found his brother looking at them, and he doesn't know why but he feels his brother is omitting a gloomy aura, he then has a wild guess in his mind and decided to work on it. So he hug Meera. And he will soon find out if his guess is correct or not.

....

Aditya doesn't understand why but he feels a little uncomfortable seeing Avi hugging Meera. Anyway, he knows that Avi is not interested in girls and talking about Meera.....

"I have a high standard for men, where will I find a more handsome and rich husband than you?" Aditya recalled this sentence that Meera said to him.

As a filmstar, Avinash has a face that can lure anyone. While talking about the business Aditya runs now has shares of Avinash too, it is just Avi is too successful in the film industry that he never asks for this money. So considering this, Avinash is indeed a better choice than him, and what's more, he is younger than him.

So this woman started to like his brother or what?. But it is Avi who hugs her, and Meera is the one who looks surprised. Aditya doesn't understand what is happing. He somewhat understand at his thought process is quite wrong but he doesn't understand how to stop his wild guess. So finally, he decided to warn Meera, that she can fall for anyone but not for Avi, otherwise, what will Aarav will think about his family.

...

Meera also decided to talk with Aditya in this matter of Avinash. If this blackmailer is the cause of Avinash's death, then she is sure that Aditya will find the blackmailer. She is not sure if Avinahs will reveal his sexuality to the world and even if he does, Meera wanted Aditya to help Avinash.

"Of course, he will help his brother" Meera hears the system's voice.

"I know, but see I don't understand the law, and I also don't understand how open this world is, because even though in my world people are still not very open, there are not any other laws too. But here in this world, I am still new. Even if I advise him, I wanted to be sure that this is the right advice" Meera replied. The system understands her thought process so she doesn't say anything.

Meera while speaking with the system isn't able to see Aditya who is coming from the other side, while Aditya who is in his thought not able to see her, and this way they knock on each other.
