The same night. . .

At Vihaan's House 🏡 :

It's 12:37a.m., Vihaan is in the living room doing some paper work while his parents are not home, they left for Mumbai after the meet to attend a client's son's wedding and also to avoid attention. Kirti and Nikita are sleeping in their own room, basically in Nikita's room because Tej also had to leave for Dubai for a project in a late night flight.

Meanwhile, Nishi was smiling in her sleep,

5 years old, baby Nishi was standing on the kitchen slab a bit faraway from the stove giggling. Her Pappy was making Jalebis for her and her Nanny was frowning at her old husband with hands on each side of her waist. He was dancing and singing minding his own business but the woman was not liking it at all.

"मैं तो बूढ़ा बच्चा हूँ . . . बड़ी शरारत करता हूँ. . . मेरी बीवी मुझको नहीं डांटती है! मैं तो बूढ़ा बच्चा हूँ . . . बड़ी शरारत करता हूँ. . . मेरी बीवी मुझको नहीं डांटती है! Come on, Nishu! Sing with Pappy!"

[ Translation : "I'm an old child. . .I do a lot of mischief. . . My wife does not scold me! I'm an old child. . . I do a lot of mischief. . . My wife does not scold me! Come on, Nishu! Sing with Pappy!" ]

Baby Nishi was giggling at the scene when her Pappy encourages her to sing along and she joins in her baby voice while the old lady slaps her forehead muttering something under her breath and walks up to the refrigerator.

The doorbell rings and Baby Nishi shrieks in excitement and starts jumping while forwarding her hands asking her Pappy to get her down. Pappy does and she runs for the door while her Nanny shouts after her, "What did I say about running, Nishu Baby?"

Pappy chuckles saying, "It must be her favourite Aunt."

Baby Nishi comes at the door while jumping in excitement but the excitement dies when she finds an old man entering. He was wearing weird clothes and a lot of different kinds of neck chains around his neck. Little Nishi blinks at the old man confusedly when he glares at the toddler and holds her arm out of the blue. She screams loudly and her grandparents come out with anxious faces hearing her screams. The toddler pushes the man and runs to the old couple. Holding her Nanny's Saree, Baby Nishi hides behind her when she hears the man say, "इस पर किसी का साया है!"

[ Translation : "She is possessed by someone!" ]

Baby Nishi peeps out from behind, finding the same old man glaring at her, this time with a rope in his hands and takes steps towards the child. This trembles the toddler's heart. She tugs on the fabric of her Nanny, whimpering softly in her baby voice, "N-N-Nanny?"

"Honey?" Little Nishi looks up hearing a different voice and finds a familiar female face instead of her Nanny. The child looks down at her own hands only to find herself turning 6. She looks up again and shivers under the woman's haunting gaze who with a creepy smile kneels down beside her making her gasp and says putting a finger on the child's lips, "Stay quiet and I'll not hurt you, okay?"
