He thinks that he had thought that she would stop him till the last minute, but now he is fedup of tanveer’s pretense and lies, and trapments, and that he wont consider her as a mother from now on.
Just then, the door is knocked, and rehaan boggled wonders who’s there at this time. He opens the house and seher comes in ranting about how he left her in that haunted house.
