In Episode 4 of “Aks,” the focus is on Sher Dil’s unsettling experiences in the house and Chirya’s growing fascination with tennis and a boy named Aibek. Sher Dil begins to experience strange occurrences in the house, particularly regarding the doors. He becomes increasingly disturbed when he notices that the doors, which he had locked, appear to open on their own. He tries to convince himself that it’s just a misunderstanding, but the eerie feeling lingers. His wife, Sheher Bano, also becomes concerned when she wakes up in the middle of the night to find Sher Dil missing. As she searches for him, her anxiety intensifies, especially when she discovers that the lights in the supposedly haunted master bedroom are on.

Meanwhile, Chirya’s story delves into her innocent and imaginative world. She watches a tennis court being built in the house where her family lives, and she becomes captivated by the sport. She watches the new residents play tennis, particularly focusing on a boy named Aibek, who is older and more skilled at the game. Chirya is fascinated by Aibek’s skills and his personality, though she feels a mixture of admiration and intimidation. She secretly watches him play from behind bushes and longs to play tennis with him. However, she is constantly reminded of the social gap between them, as her grandfather, Khair Din, warns her that tennis is a game for “sahibs” (the upper class) and not for people like them.

The episode ends with a significant interaction between Chirya and Aibek. They finally meet face to face, and Aibek offers to teach Chirya how to play tennis. This sparks a hopeful moment for Chirya, who, despite being from a different social class, dreams of learning tennis and closing the gap between her and Aibek.
