I don't want to call s2.sh in the background, even if i did, by the time i use ps command to find the pid value, the s2.sh might have already finished in no time.
No need to use ps,
use echo $!
this would give the pid of the last background process and there is no constraint that the background process should be executing while echo $! value is retrieved

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
