Ahmaya now understands what Ayani is thinking and grins at her. "Thank you," she says while embracing her.
"First and foremost, we must go; you cannot stay here any longer; we can carry out this plan from another location as well. Pack Pushpa's belongings so it seems like she fled away again."
Ahmaya packs her belongings and makes a mess of the room, as if someone had run away in a hurry.
Ahmaya clutches Ayani's hand closes her eyes, and when she opens her eyes again, she finds herself in an empty field with mountains all around her. The chilly air is blowing heavily.
"Where are we?"
"Nako…. Himachal." Ayani responds.
"Nako?...Why are we here?"
"Follow me." Ayani leads her to his father's lake.
"Dad, I am here to meet you again."
His father comes from the water, saying, "You have come to meet me with your friend."
"Dad, help us."
"Help?" Her dad wonders.
Ayani tells his father about Ahmaya, how she arrived here, how she met her, and what occurred to the point where she can no longer keep her at home.
"Yes, keep her with you. Please assist her in gaining her energy and sending her back."
Ahmaya can tell that Ayani's father is a respectable and humble guy; she can sense honesty in his aura and a glimmer of goodness in his eyes.
"She doesn't know why she's here. Maybe someone sent her here, or her own powers brought her here; whatever the case, there must be a reason she is here. If she discovers and accomplishes her mission, she may be able to return automatically." Ayani explains.
"What's your age?" His father asks Ahmaya
"18."
"That's strange no one told you or you didn't have a glimpse of your power till now?" His dad shows his doubt.
"Maybe she is here to only discover her powers." Ayani says.
"But why were you in her dreams?" Dad questions.
"Maybe God was indicating her that she could meet and learn about her powers through me." This is what Ayani thinks.
Her dad has his suspicions about Ahmaya and isn't happy with Ayani's handling of the situation; he feels that Ahmaya is here for something significant.
"She can live with me." His dad agrees.
"Thank you, sir" Ahmaya shows gratitude.
"Dad will take care for everything from now, I will meet you tomorrow." and Ayani disappears.
"What do you know about your powers?" Dad questions.
"I am aware that my energy is emotion driven. My emotions cause my energy to arise. I learnt how to arouse my energy, but now I need to learn how to employ them."
"I was once a teacher to my daughter, and I can be your teacher as well. The only condition is that you must answer to why you wish to learn how to harness your power; if I think your answer is correct only then will I instruct you."
Ahmaya thinks for a second, and answers. "I want to learn so that by using my powers I can go back."
"This isn't the right answer; please, give me a proper one."
Ahmaya is now considering what the right answer might be.
"Rest today, give me a better answer tomorrow."
Because they fled and arrived here in the dead of night, Aurora is going to take over. She hasn't slept much at Pushpa's place and is extremely exhausted.
"Let's go someplace you can live. Do you know how to swim?" Asks the dad.
"I am basic swimmer not a pro…."
He briefly spins around Ahmaya before saying, "catch my hand, kid." She takes his hand hesitantly, and he leaped into the water, "what the...?" she yells.
Ahmaya finds that she can open her eyes in the water and see clearly what is around them. He brings her deep beneath the water's surface, she notices a door-like object in the lake's end corner. "Yes, it's definitely a door," she says, reaching near it to prove it.
They approach the door, which the father unlocks, and they enter. "It's a little messy and water can leak from the walls, but it's safe. You can live here, and no one will find you. Just make yourself comfortable. If you're scared at night alone, then…." ..."Hey, how are you?" he stops, and asks the Terrapin on the ground.
Ahmaya shouts in fear after seeing the terrapin, but the dad reassures her that he is kind and will accompany her. If she needs anything, she may tell him. However, she wonders how to communicate with him.
"Believe me when I say he's more talented than certain people, and he spends most of his time here." Dad complements the Terrapin.
"Don't you live in this place?" Ahmaya wonders.
"No, I do not." I have a residence in human society and live with Ayani's mother there...Ok. Take care, child; see you tomorrow." Saying with a big sigh, Ayani's dad takes his leave.
It's a little room with a few gorgeous plant pots; the entire room is composed of earth and sand; there's a tiny square wooden table on the left; and on the right, there's a mattress on the ground with a silk bedsheet and a folded blanket. Just above it, there is a large glass window through which she can see the magnificent lake from inside. She rushes to the window and is astounded to see this breathtaking scene. She can watch the fish swim, and she can see the dad walking up; he turns back, sees Ahmaya peering out the window, waves at her, and leaves.
Ahmaya can smell the lake's refreshing aurora, and she notices the terrapin on the ground; he's adorable, but she's afraid to embrace him. The Terrapin goes to the door, leaps, opens it by himself, and walks outside.
"He is quite skilled man and cute, this is weird." Ahmaya grins.
Ahmaya sits on the mattress, which is pretty comfy.
She is thinking about how Ayani will discipline Dinesh, as well as the correct response her father requires, he will not educate her till then.
She's also hungry. And the door opens while she was thinking about some food. The terrapin comes inside scrolling with a leaf he is dragging from his mouth inside, Ahmaya notices and rises up, holding the leaf, which contains mushrooms, fruits Ahmaya has never seen before, and plant stems.
"What is this?" Ahmaya asks gently.
He scrolls cutely to the wooden table, where there is an alphabet chart on the ground. He drags the chart with his short legs and stands in front of Ahmaya, pointing to one alphabet.
"F?" Ahmaya speaks as he points at F with his small legs.
Then he refers to another Alphabet.
"O?"
Again, he taps O with his legs.
"Food?"
That terrapin growls, indicating yes.
"Did you bring this for me?"
"Y?"
"E?"
"Yes?" Ahmaya guesses correctly.
"Thank you." She replies with a smile.
He grunts.
Ahmaya eats with him on her lap.
Even though she was exhausted, she gets a good night's rest and wakes up feeling refreshed and at ease.

The situation in Kitbok's residence is out of control. "Let's fix the date for Kitbok's wedding." KItbok's family talking.
"Dad, I don't wanna marry her." Kitbok tries to convey his feelings.
"Don't make a fuss over the girl in front of Dad." His brother whispered in his ear.
"What do you mean? I don't wanna get married." Kitbok says again, in a serious as well as emotional tone with light tears in his eyes.
"Get some sleep." His dad responds.
"I am very serious, I don't want to get married."
"Why?" His dad finally questions.
"I do not feel like it. I can't do it."
"There is no going back now, you have to marry her." His dad states.
"I am not going to."
"You are daring to go against my will?"
"I am respectfully denying I don't want to marry her." Kitbok says in a sharp voice.
His dad hits him and says, "Get your act together."
"I will not…. marry her." Kitbok screams.
"You can't back off simply because you don't feel like it? Did you hear anything bad about that girl...? Don't worry, boy, she comes from a decent family." His dad tries to convince him.
"Dad, I can't marry her, please understand."
"There is no point of discussing something that cannot happen. Go back to your room." he shouts.
As Kitbok tries to say something else…"GO BACK," he shouts again.
Kitbok enters to his room and hears indictive discussion. Someone approaches and locks his room from outside.
"Make sure he doesn't go outside." Kitbok listens someone talking outside his room.
Kitbok is now trapped by his family, who are prepared to do anything to get him married.

And here, Ayani returns to her home after leaving Ahmaya off at his father's, thinking about how she may carry out the plan she devised with Ahmaya to punish Pushpa's brother-in-law.
The following day, Ayani gets ready to see Kongthong. She wears a stunning red dress with a plunging neckline, touches her lips with pink dark lipstick, and lets her hair show.
