Scene 1:
Location: Ayan’s residence
Razia ia alarmed at the mention of police. She starts to reprimand him for being so tensed, as badi bi would come soon, and today is an auspicious occassion and he shouldnt talk like this today. Razia asks the girls to go and get sweets. But rashid is unconvinced and still talks with ayan. Razia is surprised not to find humaira there. humaira is shown with the bunch of keys trying out to open the lock. Razia iis approaching her room, wondering where humaira went, and hopes that there’s no new trouble. Humaira is trying frantically to open the door and finally manages it. As she opens it, she finds nothing other than the usual there, except for clothes and other items. She turns around and is shocked to find razia, standing there confronting her, that she knew humaira wont be at peace. She goes on to say that she could doubt her own mother, but then composes saying that she’s her mother’s age, and if she would have done the same with her mother too. Razia closes the almirah, and asks if the search is over, and says that she had told that there’s nothing in the almirah. Humaira says that there mightnt be anything now, but that doesnt prove that there never was anything in it. razia is alarmed. humaira eyes a locked door, and leaves. razia smirks and thinks that she would be difficult to get rid off, and if she is clever then she is extra clever, and which she is finding isnt even in the store room, that she now has a doubt on. She closes the door, and looks under the bed, to find badi bi there, saying that she shifted her there at the right time, or else her secret would have been up today.
