THANKS EVERYONE...!! I am sorry I can't reply you all, as i am very busy this week...And I did not want to delay the update anymore...Thanks for the lovely comments...!! Keep commenting and lots of love and Happy Dashera to all of you...!!
 
Monu, I know Kripa is wrong, but some times when people give promises on their loved ones, it is just too difficult to ignore, and she wanted Angad with her, but she knew that thousands of people depended on their company and their was a lot of work load...Further, Angad is from a family owned business, where delegation is not so common and all the work comes on the sons of the family...So, Kripa knows his delima...Angad should have also realized that Kripa never put her career before her family till date...Think, if she would have got that PHD, then how many offers she must have got, but she is still with him, doing whatever she can in that same city where he is...Then how come she might have gone away, not even looking back so suddenly...But anger took over him and he did not think twice...It is the matter of communication...Angad should have tried to go once and talk to her and bring her back...World has shrinked and he could have taken couple of days, but he did not and Kripa being stubborn, was wrong as well...So, they both need to realize their own mistakes and understand eachother...!!

Part-53

 

Avantika called Kripa again in between…….Worried for her……It was almost 4 months now……She had time and again told her to come back, even after she knew that things would not be as it were before……….She had tried to tell her about Ayush, Angad, Divya……But Kripa had been adamnt……

 

K: Ma, mein nahi chahti ki Divya bhabhi ko meri wajah se takleef ho aur please aap meri chinta mat kijiye…….Mein apna pura dhyan de rahi hun, aur mein akele kahan hun…….Prithvi aur Harshini bhi to hain…….Humare kayin purane dost hain……..Thode dinon ki to baat hai na ma…….Divya bhabhi ko jo takleef hui hai meri wajah se hui hai ma……..Mein unhe aur takleef nahi dena chahti……Ayush ki woh ma hai, aur aap uski takleef samajh sakti ho na…….Please, thode din aur…….mein jo kar rahi hun soch samajh kar kar rahi hun…..!!

 

A: Kripa, tu samajh nahi rahi hai beta…….Ye baat aise nahi sulajhne wali…….!! Ayush ki tabiyat dekhegi na to samjh mein ayega tujhe…….Woh to jaise hasna bhul gaya beta…….Divya usse apne kareeb lana chahti thi, par woh kareeb to nahi gaya, par unki duriyan to aur bhi badh gayi hai……..Tumhare yahan rehne na rehne se ye baat sulajhne wali nahi hai Kripa…….!! Divya ko khud iska rasta dhundna hoga…….Tum akhir kab tak aise wahan akele rahogi…..Dekh, aab agar aur der karogi na, to saab ko sachai bata dungi……..Bahot ho gayi abb teri man mani…….

 

K: Ma, mein ne Ayush ki kasam khai hai…..Kya aap chahti hai ki mein woh kasam tod dun……Nahi ma, ye mujh se kabhi nahi hoga……..She said crying and wiping her tears……Jab tak bhabhi nahi kehti, mein wapas nahi aungi ma……..Unhe jitna samay chahiye, mein unhe dungi……!! Par please, mujhe bar bar an eke liye mat kahiye……!! Aab aap sachai janti hi hai, to meri kashmakash ko bhi samjhiye ma……..She said with tears……..How can she express her fears over Ayush to her…..Divya had given Ayush's promise to her and if anything happens to him, if she breaks her promise, she would never be able to forgive her self…..That was the main reason, she could not take a step forward to him, without Divya's wish…..!!

 

Avantika wiped her tears and looked down sadly, defeated…….She had tried to talk with Divya as well as Kripa…….But no solution was coming in between this………Dadi just said to leave it on the kids, but how could she, when she was seeing that they were all suffering and none of them was happy…….Dilip still did not knew the truth and Avantika atlast decided to talk to him……..

 

A: Mein rakhti hun Kripa………She said slowly…….

 

K: I am sorry ma…….Aap ki baat ka anadar kiya mein ne…….Itni baar apne kaha, par mein……She said breaking down and crying openly for the first time in front of her……..

 

A: Kripa, meri baat sun beta………Tumne mera anadar nahi kiya beta…….Ye to tumhara Ayush ke prati jo bhavana hai, woh bol raha hai…….Mein tere dil ka dard bhi janti hun, par kya karun, yahan halat aise ho gaye hai, ki koi barabar se baat hi nahi karta, issiliye tumse baat ki mein ne…..She said immediately, not wanting to burden her even more, when she was all alone…..She needed to do something fast now before this whole thing went out of control……She thought wiping her tears…….Tu apna dhyan de beta…….Yahan ki chinta mat kar…….Apni sehed ka dhyan de……..Mein Angad se baat karungi aur usse wahan bhej dungi thode dinon ke liye, taki tumhe bhi acha lage……..Aur mein iske bare mein kuch nahi sunnana chahti……….Mein bas 3-4 dinon mein mauka dekhkar Angad se baat karungi……..Usse iss sachai ke bare mein batana jaroori hai beta………Shayad Ayush ko lekar jo sochti hai, woh thik ho, par Angad ko iss baat ka pata hona jaroori hai, kyun ki woh tumhara pati hai…….Tumhare sukh dukh mein sath dena uski zimedari hai, aur apna sukh dukh bantana, tumhara……..Jo tum bhul gayi ho………She said sternly……..Pata nahi ye do mahine pehle hi kyun nahi kaha tumse, aur tabhi kuch kiya hota mein ne, jab Gayatri ne Divya ke vachan ke bare mein bataya to acha hota……Chahe kuch bhi ho jaye beta, chahe iss ghar ke tukde ho ya toofan mein saab bikhar jaye, Angad aur tumhara rishta janam janam ka hai……..Aur aise sachai chipana…..? Iss baat ke liye mein jaroor naraj hun……..Kripa looked down guiltily knowing she was right…….But she felt even more guiltier, when she looked at her stomach……..She closed her eyes and a tear rolled down her eye……..

 

K: Ma, woh Angad hai ghar par? She asked slowly……

 

A: Nahi beta, usse ghar ki sudh hi kahan hai……raat raat tak kaam karta rehta hai…….She said sighing…..Abhi office mein hi hoga……..Kripa closed her eyes guiltily…………Mein rakhti hun Kripa…….Badmein baat karti hun…….Apna khayal rakhna……She said slowly switching off the phone……..

 

That evening she told Dilip the real reason behind Kripa's departure and Dilip just stared at her for 5 full minutes………

 

D: Ye baat tum janti thi, phir bhi itne din tak chup thi…….? He asked angrily………Pehle kyun nahi bataya ye…….?

 

A: Ji ma ne mana kar diya tha……..She said guiltily……..Dilip looked at her angrily and then looked away stunned to know this…….

 

D: Aur Surya aur Gayatri?

 

A: Gayatri ko saab pehle hi pata tha, aur aab Surya ko bhi…..

 

D: Avantika, tum bhi mujhe ye baat pehle bata deti to acha hota……..Kayin dinon se na chahte hue bhi mujhe Kripa par ghussa aa raha tha, ki Ayush ki tabiyat ke bare mein sunkar bhi woh aa nahi rahi hai, apne career mein busy hai……Iss baat se mujhe inkar nahi tha, ki apne sapne pure kare, par yeh baat khatak rahi thi ki woh Ayush ko itna pyar karti thi, phir kyun aaj uske ansu dekh nahi pa rahi……..Aur aaj tum mujhe ye keh rahi ho ki woh….He said looking away angrily…….Iss ghar mein tum logon ko chut di rakhi hai, iska matlab ye nahi ki, itne bade bade faisle ghar ke tum log akele hi lo, hume puchne ya salah lene ki jaroorat bhi mehsus na karo…….!! He said angrily getting up……..Avantika looked down guiltily, knowing he was right……Ghar mein humare pith piche itna saab ho gaya, aur hume khabar bhi nahi? Wahan uss bache ki jaan par tuli hai, aur yahan tum log chup ho…….? Aur Surya aur Gayatri, kya beet rahi hogi unn par? Char mahine Avantika? Aur Surya ne bhi kuch nahi bataya mujhe? He asked frowning……Kya iss ghar mein itni hi ehmiyat hai meri………?

 

A: Ji mujhe maaf kar dijiye……Ma ne kaha, ki bachon ko unka jhagda khud suljhane dun……Issiliye……

 

D: Suljhane ke liye, saab ka sath baithkar baat karna jaroori hota hai Avantika……..Par Kripa to yahan nahi hai Na…..Apna vachan nibha rahi hai acha hai, par ye bhi to sochna chahiye ki ghar par baki logon par kya beet rahi hogi…….Aur Divya, usse ghussa nahi kar sakti thi…….? Ye ehsaas nahi dila sakti thi ki woh galat hai? He said shaking his head and sitting down tensed…….

 

Avantika also had no answers to the questions…..She herself  was so confused about who was right and who was wrong, that she could not say anyone anything till now…….But she knew what ever it may be, first thing she needed to do is talk to Angad……..

 

Angad came back late that night and Avantika had no chance to talk to him and he left for nearby villages to meet few people for 3-4 days tour, telling Kartik about it…..Avantika was shocked and Dilip a little angry about it…..They tried his number, but it was out of reach……..Avantika was just tensed about the current situation at home…….It seemed like everyone had there own agenda and the family she thought so close, was breaking apart, includint her kids, who did not even think of telling her before going out……

 

Meanwhile Dilip went to Surya and they talked about Kripa's going……

 

S: Haan Dilip bataya Gayatri ne mujhe……Kripa ne mana kiya hume, issiliye nahi bataya tha, par phir jab do mahinon ke upar ho gaye, to Gayatri se raha nahi gaya aur usne bhabhi ko saab bata diya……Phir kaki bhi chahti thi ki Kripa aur Divya sath mein apni pareshani ka hal nikale, to chup reh gaya……He said sighing tensely…….Par aab to char mahine beet gaye……ek hafte se hum soch rahe the, ki kyun na hum hi ek baar jakar Kripa se baat kare…..!! Taki usse samjha kar le aa sake…..pata hai woh bhi zid par addi hai, par akeli hai, issiliye kuch keh bhi nahi pa rahe hum..…..Aab itni dur jakar baithi hai ki yahan se kuch kar bhi nahi pa raha hun aur jab phone karte hain, to rokar hume rok deti hai…….Kehti hai ki apna vachan nibhana hai usse……..!! Aab aisi halat mein to hume yahi ek tareeka dikh raha hai…….Hum tumse baat karne hi wale the iss ke bare mein……..Angad ko bhi mana kar thode dinon ke liye chalne ko kehna chahte the…….Taki wahan chalkar usse sachai bataye, aur Angad aur Kripa dono milkar iss samasya ko suljhaye……..He said sighing……Tired by the tension he has been carrying…..Dilip kept a hand on his shoulder and nodded, saying he would talk to Avantika and Angad and then they can go and bring Kripa back…….Par mujhe nahi lagta Dilip ki woh ghar ane ke liye taiyar hogi……Woh Ayush se bahot pyar karti hai, aur Divya ne usse ussiki kasam de di……to aisi halat mein……..Dilip stopped him mid sentence…….

 

D: Agar Kripa ghar nahi ana chahti abhi, to na sahi, par yahan aakar Angad ke sath kahin aur bhi rahe to maan ko tasali rahegi ki woh akeli nahi hai……Waise bhi Angad ki aisi halat hai ki ghar par reh kar bhi woh wahan nahi rehta…...Kum se kum uske sath to khush rahega……..Badmein age ki dekh sakte hain…..Shayad Kartik Divya ko samjhaye, ya ma ya Avantika samjhaye……He said shaking his head……..Ayush ki to halat dekhi nahi ja rahi aab……..Ek dum chup sa ho gaya hai…….he said sadly…….Surya looked down a little guiltily, knowing Kripa was the reason behind it…….Though not knowingly, but unknowingly that even though he was with his mother, he still pinned for motherly affection from Kripa and Kripa left him due to her promise, not realizing that her promise is something, which was coming in between Ayush and his health……..But still he could understand her delima and fear……

 

Back to Ayush, Divya started fearing for her child's life……he was almost lifeless…..eating too little, not playing much……Doctor had said he was anemic and needed strength…..but the problem was he was not at all eating properly……Angad did not call Kripa after that call a month back……he was so angry on her, that he just gave up ……..Avantika had asked him to go to US, couple of times, so he started going on tours, to avoid home………He couldn't see his brother in his eye today, due to her…...Due to Kripa his brothers child was missing a mother, even though his real mother was there in front of him……..But still Kripa was adamnt to give her lectures…….He still couldn't believe it……...Divya was about to give up and call Kripa, but her hands shook, as she felt guilty to do so……It would be selfish on her part, if she called her back, just for her sons sake…..She had already did so much for them, when she was pregnant…..She had been tired most of the time and Kripa had always been there to help her……And again, just for her sake, she had left her husband and family, on her request and went away and was staying alone, since last 4 months.……She felt so guilty  about all of it, that she could not even say a word to Kartik…..And she had seen Angad…..how tired he looked, how depressed…..Due to her selfishness, she had destroyed the happiness of this house…..

 

Couple of days later, Avantika found that Angad was back home……She had to take dadi to some puja in the morning, so she decided to talk to Angad in the evening……when dadi and Avantika went out for puja in the neighbours house, Divya sat depressed in her rooms for hours …….She wanted everything to go back as it was, but did not know how……Couple of times she thought of going to Angad and tell him about all this and ask him to bring her back, asking for forgiveness……..She had seen him sitting in the dark on the terrace all alone all night long, after coming from the tour late night……..He did not even have anything to eat, and she did not have courage to approach him……...…but now she feared that, if she said some thing, Kartik would be so angry on her for doing all this that he would never forgive her…..She ran down to the temple and touched the feet of Srinathji asking for forgiveness……She had been so selfish, did not even think about Kripa and had asked to leave….She cried her heart out, asking for her sons well being…..She was totally devasted and did not see any hope…...

 

Dadi found her lying unconscious on the puja room floor that evening, when she came back from the temple……She went to her worriedly and sat down shaking her…….

 

D: Divya….beta…..She said anxiously trying to wake her up……But she was not opening her eyes…..Avantika……Ramu……she called loudly…..and soon Avantika came running…..

 

A: Ma….kya hua isse….she said frowning when she looked at Divya unconscious…..

 

D: Avanti jaldi se doctor ko phone kar de beta…..dekh kya halat ho gayi hai iski….She said wiping Divya's tear filled face with wet cloth…..Avantika called the doctor immediately and then let Kartik know about it…..Angad and Kartik were home within few minutes and saw Divya lying down and Avantika and Dadi sitting besides her trying to sprinkle some water and wake her up….…..Kartik just kept staring at Divya shocked, remembering the times when she had fainted this way in US, but Angad quickly lifted her and kept her on dadi's bed, which was nearer……Avantika sprinkled some water, but still she did not open the eyes…..They all looked at her worriedly and waited for the doctor to come……….Soon the doctor was home and checked her out…..He then told that it was just that she was weak and may be in some tension…..so she passed out …..He gave her a shot and prescribed some medicines and left soon, saying she would be alright soon…..They all sighed in relief……..

 

Ka: Ayush, Ayush kahan hai……he said looking around…..Avantika froze….they never thought of him till now…..it had almost been half an hour or more..….Kartik and Angad ran up and looked in Kartik's and Ayush's  room……but he wasn't there…..they searched around and atlast found him sleeping in Angad and Kripa's room with Kripa's photo in his hand……Angad and Kartik had tears in their eyes…..he looked so weak and thin…..They had even forgot how he laughed, when Kripa would run behind him with milk or food.…..Angad's anger towards Kripa grew……he looked at the photo with disgust and turned around leaving the room…….He went down to see how Divya was doing….all this was happening just because of Kripa…..This was all her fault….This house, which was filled with laughter once was filled with sorrow due to her…..He wanted to hate her……

 

Kartik went down and informed them all that Ayush was sleeping in Kripa and Angad's room…..Divya was awake and looked down guiltily with tears, when she looked at Angad.……Dadi thought she was worried about Ayush…..

 

D: Beta, woh thik hai aab……tum apni tabiyat par dhyan de thoda……Woh to bacha hai…..par tu samajhdhar hai na…….

 

A: Divya, saab thik ho jayega……chal ye juice pe le…..aur jakar tere room mein arram kar….she said with concern…..

 

D: Kuch thik nahi hoga ma…..saab meri wajah se hua hai……she said putting her head on her knee…..Kuch thik nahi hoga aab……she said crying…..Kartik and Angad looked at her confused……

 

Ka: Divya ye kya keh rahi ho…..tumne kya kiya hai…..aisi behki behki batein mat karo….chalo aram karo……he said holding her arm, trying to take her to their room…..

 

D: Nahi aap kuch nahi jante…..ye saab meri wajah se hua hai….she said pulling her arm from his hand…..Aap janti ho na ma…..she said looking at Avantika with tears…..Saab meri wajah se hua hai……she said crying…..Avantika had tears in her eyes…..she went and held her in her arms……She looked up at Kartik and Angad, but kept quite…….

 

A: Abhi kuch nahi hua Divya……kuch bhi nahi bigda…..Kripa ko phone karke bula le….saab thik ho jayega….apni kasam wapas le le….mujhe yakin hai, ki woh jaroor aa jayegi…..Woh hum se dur sirf tumhari kasam ki wajah se reh rahi hai……ek ek din mushkil se ro ro kar nikal rahi hain……Jitna hum saab tadap rahe hai, ussase kayin jyada woh wahan akele tadap rahi hai, Ayush ki tabiyat ke liye, tumhare liye…Apni kasam wapas le le beta, aur usse bula le…….tum jab tak nahi kahogi, tab tak who wapas nahi ayegi……She said hugging her with tears and then looked at Angad angrily, who was not even home now a days to listen to what she had to say..…….Angad and Kartik looked at her stunned….

 

Ka: Kasam….? He looked confused around……..Yeh tumlog kya keh rahe ho ma…..kaisi kasam……Avantika sighed…..and kept quite…..Divya……ma kya keh rahi hai…..he asked frowning…..Kaisi kasam…..? Divya slowly wiped her eyes and looked at Avantika and Dadi guiltily and then looked at Kartik and Angad with tears……She then told what she had done and how she had asked Kripa to leave, so she could bond with Ayush…...Stunned Angad and Kartik did nothing but stare at her…..They never imagined that behind their backs, this all happened in their house….They were thinking, that Kripa had left for some career opportunity and Ayush was unable to cope without her……But this was news to them…..

 

D: Deevarji, mujhe maaf kar dijiye….meri wajah se gayi hai woh…..usse mein ne Ayush ki kasam di thi……isiliye…….she said hugging her knees…..Ma mujhe nahi pata tha, ki meri iss zid ki wajah se Ayush ki zindagi khatre mein padegi……She said crying….Avantika hugged her tightly and asked her to calm down…..Ma, Kripa ka bhi kya dosh tha…..woh to mere bte ko apne bte jaisa pyar kar rahi thi….mujhe to khush hona chahiye tha…..par…..pata nahi kya ho gaya tha mujhe, ki mein aise usske pairon mein girkar yahan se kuch din chale jane ke liye kaha……Aur mujhe kya mila ma…..mera beta mujhse aur dur chala gaya……she said crying her heart out……Kartik and Angad had tears in their eyes…….Avantika calmed her down…..Kripa ne mere liye itna saab kiya…..aur badle mein meine usse akele rehne par majboor kar diya…….isskeliye woh mujhe kabhi maaf nahi karegi….pata hai mujhe…..Mein ne hi Ayush ko use choti ma kehne ke liye kaha…..usse ye hak diya, unnhe kareeb jane diya….aur meine hi unn donon ko alag kar diya…..Mujhse aisi galti kaise ho gayi Ma….mein uska na chahte hue dil dukha diya…..she said crying…..

 

A: Chup ho ja Divya……bas….aab bahot ho gaya….rone se kuch hasil nahi hone wala….jo ho gaya usse bhool ja…..na issme teri galti hai, na Kripa ki……Apne aap ko dosh mat de……she said patting her….

 

D: Aur kaun doshi hai ma, mein hi to hun……Sara kasur mera hi hai…….Ayush aur Kripa ke pyar se jalan hoti thi mujhe……Bahot buri hun mein…….Mujhe aisa mehsus hone laga, jaise Ayush mujh se dur ja raha hai….…she said crying…….Mujhe daar tha, ki kahin woh ye na bhul jaye ki mein uski ma hun……she said closing her eyes tightly…..Dadi came to her and slowly caressed her hairs……..

 

D: Beta, Apne Srinathji ke bhi to do do ma the…..unhone kabhi un donon mein farak nahi mana….haan yashoda maiya ke kareeb the, unke kehlaye, par janani to uski Devaki hi thi na beta….aur aise bade parivaron mein kabhi kabhi ho jata hai….bachon ko kabhi kabhi ma se jyada, dusron se lagav ho jata hai….Iska matlab ye to nahi, ki woh apne ma se dur ho jate hain…..Aur Kripa ne to saab ka dil jeet liya tha…..yaad hai na, din raat tu bhi uske piche padi rehti…..Woh bhi to choti thi……Usne janam se Ayush ko sambhala hai……pala posa, bada kiya……apne hathon se khilaya…..apna samjha…..iska matlab ye nahi ki usse ye ehsaas nahi ki Ayush tumhara beta hai……Divya looked down ashamed…….Aur tumhe bhi sharminda hone ki koi jarurat nahi…..kabhi kabhi apne jazbaat kabu mein nahi rehte…..Tu bhi uski ma hai…..shayad kisi baat se tumhe takleef hui ho……..Jeevan mein aise kayin pariksha ki ghadiyan ati hain, jahan soch samjh kar kaam lena chahiye, jazbaton par kabu rakhana chahiye, taki galti se bhi koi galat baat muh se na nikal jaye, jiski wajah se maan mein pachtava ho……Mein ne abhi tak Avantika ko roka, kyun ki mein chahti thi, ki tum khud apni galti jano aur mano, humare kehne se samjhota na karo, kyun ki agar humare kehne se tum majboori mein Kripa ko bulati to dubara issi dauhrahe par hoti…..Uska chup chap yun chale jana, tumhe jaise din raat khatak raha hai, issase tumhe bhi andaja ho gaya, ki woh tumhe aur Ayush ko kitna chahti hai, apna manti hai, dil se na ki Angad se uska rishta hai iss wajah se…..She said smiling and caressing her hairs, while Divya's face was covered with tears…….

 

A: Divya, zindagi mein jab aise intihan ki ghadi ati hai, to zazbaat se nahi soch samajh kar kaam lena bahot jaroori hote hai, kyun ki inhi choti choti baton se ghar tut jate hain, rishte bikhar jate hain…….Maan mutav kis rishte mein nahi hote, woh chahe sage bhai behen ho ya phir pati patni……..Par jin rishton mein vishwas hota hai, ek dusare ke liye adar aur pyar hota hai, wahan dheeraj se bhi saab suljha sakte hain……..Mein ye nahi keh rahi hun ki Kripa ne yahan se jakar bahot acha kaam kiya ya phir tum ne galat kiya……..Kripa ne bhi galti ki……...Khud itna bada faisla liya………Badon ko batane ki jaroorat bhi nahi samjha ussne……..Apni ma ko bataya, par hume nahi…….Ye soch kar ki do bahuon mein kahin mein bich mein na pad jaun…….Aur ye uski galat femi thi, kyun ki bade to hote hi hai sahi rasta dikhane…….Gayatri ko bataya, chahe woh humare kitne hi kareeb kyun na ho, hai to woh beti ke ma baap, kuch keh nahi sake aur Kripa ki baat maan li……..Unhe Kripa ke kabiliyat par bharosa tha aur ye vishwas tha ki woh akeli reh sakti hai, issiliye jane diya, par phir bhi ye to sahi baat nahi na…….Jab mushkil ghadi ati hai, saab sath baaithkar uska haal nikalna jaroori hai, issiliye jitni galti tumhari hai, utni hi uski bhi……..Khair biti baton ko to badal nahi sakte, par iss galti ne saab ko apni apni galtiyon ka ehsaas jaroor dila diya, khud par ka jo ahankar tha saab ko, woh to aaj nahi hai…...Ye samajh mein aa gaya ki hum insaan hai, aur humse bhi galti hoti hai……She said smiling sadly and caressing Divya's arm……..par aab woh saab bhul ja……Gayatri bhi bahot pareshan hai……Kal hi keh rahi thi, ki pata nahi kaisi hogi Kripa……4 mahine ho gaye…….US jakar ane ki baat kar rahi thi…...Aur ye hain ki, jakar ek baar dekh kar bhi nahi aaya, itni baar kaha, par sunane ke liye taiyar hi nahi…..office ka kaam itnna jaruri tha, ki ek hafte bhar ke liye bhi nahi ja saka?…..she asked looking angrily at Angad…….She then went to him and stood before him…….

 

A: Haan uski galti thi, ki woh gayi aur Ayush ki halat dekh kar bhi nahi aayi……..Par kya tumhara farz nahi tha, ki jakar usse ek baar pucho ki woh aisa kyun kar rahi hai……Jab shadi ki baat hui thi, tab to pandhra din mein visa bhi ho gaya tha aur jane ki tayari bhi…….Aab to tum donon pati patni ho…….Agar woh nahi aa rahi thi, to tum chale jate…….Ghussa karne hi sahi……Usse ye ehsaas dilane hi sahi ki woh galat hai……!! Kumse kum uske dil ki baat to jaan pate…..!! Humari baat to dur, tum khud apne dil se puchte, ki Kripa aisa kyun kar rahi hai…….Bas ghusse mein khud itna akad gaye ki kuch sochne samajhne ki takat hi nahi rahi tumame……Galti sirf uski nahi, tumhari bhi hai Angad…….Agar ek zid par ada hai to dusara usse manaye ye jaroori hai…..To kya ki tum uske pati ho? Kya sahi galat ki pehchan karana tumhari zimedari nahi…….Aur aaj kal to duniya mein kahin bhi ek din mein pahunch sakte ho…..To ek baar ja ate, to kya bigadta……Jyada se jyada woh an eke liye mana karti……Tum donon ki anban hoti……Par agar tum dil se sochte to jante, ki agar gaye hote, to tumhe iss sach ke bare mein kab ka pata chal jata……Kripa ne an eke liye phone kiya tha tumhe…..yaad hai….uske jane k ek mahine baad……..Apna farz yaad dila rahe the usse, par kya uske prati koi farz nahi hai tumhara……? Ek baar do din ke liye hi sahi jakar ate……Kehte the na ki tum ussase bahot pyar karte ho, to kya hua uss pyar ka……? Jab pariksha ki ghadi ayi, to do pair bhi age na badha sake? He looked down ashamed at his behavior……

 

Angad: Sorry ma……..Avantika stopped him with tears…….

 

A: Galti shayad meri hi hai…..She said looking away…..Thik kaha tumhare papa ne…….Mujhe pehle hi age  badhkar sakti se kaam lena chahiye tha……She said wiping her tears…….Dadi went to her and kept a hand on her shoulder…….

 

D: Sakti se agar kaam leti, to saab ko apni galti kaise dikhti Avantika? She asked……na kisi ko jabardasti kisi rishte mein bandha ja sakta hai na koi kaam karne par majboor kiya ja sakta hai, kyun ki agar hum aisa kare, to woh dil se nahi hota…….Ek jabardasti ka ancha bandhan ban jata hai, jisase koi khush nahi reh pata…….Na Divya, na Ayush na Kripa aur na baki ke log………Issiliye roka tha mein ne……..Kripa ke kabliyat par jitna bharosa Surya aur Gayatri ko tha, ussase kayin jyada mujh par tha, agar nahi hota, to akele nahi jane deti……..Har cheez ka ek waqt hota hai……..Kripa ka iss tarah chup chap chale jana hi Divya ko uski galti ka ehsaas dilata, aur mujhe yakeen hai ki job hi ho Kripa Ayush ko aur takleef mein nahi dekh pati…….So, ek na ek din jald hi laut atti……..Iss budhi ankhon ne saab ke kabiliyat aur soch ko parkha hai, issiliye itna bada faisla lene diya tha mein ne…….Kripa hum saab se choti jaroor hai, par janti hai ki woh kya kar rahi hai……Samajh mein who hum saab se kayin jyada badi hai……..Ayush ki kasam uske jane ki wajah kyun na ban gayi ho, par ye janti thi woh, ki yahan rehne se uski aur Divya ke bich ki ye duri kabhi nahi mit sakti……..Aur Ayush aur Divya ka kareeb ana hi iss samasya ka hal hai……..Aur uske dil mein dabe hue iss ehsaas ko mein samajh gayi……Kahin na kahin usse apne iss faisle par pura bharosa tha……..Issiliye mein ne sath diya uska……Ye baat alag hai ki Ayush aaj bhi Divya ke kareeb nahi gaya, par ye Divya ki apni chunoti thi……..She said looking at Divya sternly…….Divya beta, apni galti ka ehsaas bhale hi tumhe andar se khaya jar aha tha, aur kahin na kahin Ayush ka Kripa ke kareeb ana tumhe khatak raha tha, par bachon ko dant kar unhe kareeb nahi laya ja sakta…….Apna ghussa aur apna dukh baju mein rakh kar, unhe samay dena jaroori hota hai……Par jab se Kripa gayi, tab se kya kiya tumne……..? Apne hi galti ke bojh tale dabi rahi, ansu girati rahi……..Ansu kisi samasya ka samadhan nahi hai……!! Aur agar galti ho hi gayi, to uska siddha nishana Ayush raha……..Kyun ki tumhare jazbaat tumhe uske komal maan ko andekha kar rahe the……Usse samajh nahi pa rahe the……..Agar tab apne jazbaat baju mein rakhkar, pyar se usse kareeb leti na, to aaj tak Ayush kab ka tum se jud jata…….Par tum usse dantati, ghussa karti, jissase woh tumse aur dur chala gaya……Bache pyar ki bhasha samajhte hai……..Jisne pyar diya, woh ussike ho gaye……..Ayush isski wajah se aaj iss mukam par nahi hai, ki Kripa yahan nahi hai…..Woh iss mukam par issiliye hai, kyun ki tum usse woh pyar dene mein na kamyab rahi, kyun ki tum khud apne gunahon ke bojh tale, ghusse ki adh mein usse samajh nahi saki………Agar Kripa ke jane ke baad, tum pyar se usse apne paas leti, usske sath samay bitati, khelti, hasati, baat karti, usse dusari baton par dhyan batati, to Kripa ki yaad nahi karta woh, kyun ki abhi bahot chota hai woh…….Thode hi dinon mein tumhe sweekar leta.………She said sighing……..Divya looked down as tears kept coming in her eyes……..

 

Dadi smiled sadly and went to her and wiped her tears…….Jeevan mein kayin batein samajhne ke liye kuch dukhon ko khud paar karna padta hai…..Tab jakar jeevan ki choti choti khushiyon ka hum adar kar sakte hain……Yahi baat hai ki aaj tak mein chup chap ye tamasha dekhti rahi, she said looking at Avantika, who looked down…….

 

She went to Kartik and patted his arms and slowly left the room with a sigh…..She wiped her tears from thr corner of her eye and went to the temple area and sat there closing her eyes……..Praying for well being of Kripa, as she did everyday……..!!

 

Angad looked down guiltily remembering all that had happened since the day he found Kripa crying in her sleep and told him that she found her self all alone…….He had said so many things to Kripa angrily about not caring and taking responsibility…..But the truth was again, once more she had sacrificed her self for his families' happiness…..He remembered her words that Divya was Ayush's mother and could take care of him….Now he understood why she had said that so many times….he had seen tears in her eyes, but never tried to understand those tears….Though he knew some thing was wrong looking at her sad face, he could not understand the reason behind that sadness….He should have once listened to his heart, and went to meet her, talk to her and make her understand and come back…..!! Instead, once again his anger had taken over him…….Once again he failed to understand her…..!! Dadi and his moms words kept ringing in his ears and he closed his eyes tightly and left the room, without a word……..

 

Divya looked at him sadly……Even Kartik was ashamed of Divya's behavior……He had seen the longing and pain in Angad's eyes…..And knew Kripa was also not happy there……He did not know how she had stayed all alone in other countries all this months…….He had also wondered at Kripa's sudden departure and her stubbornness to attend all the seminars, which felt some what unrealistic……….He had always seen her caring and giving nature and was surprised at her sudden decision, not even coming when she knew about Ayush's health…….he had wanted to talk to it about Angad, but had not and he regreted it today…..As a brother as a friend, he should have talked to him, make him realize that something was missing in all this, instead he had let him become angry on Kripa, and kept away sadly…….But, today he knew that Divya was the reason once again, behind her decision again…..…She stayed there only so Ayush would be safe, due to the promise she made…….He left the room with out looking at Divya…..but his eyes met Avantika's before leaving…...there was pain and tears in his mom's eyes too……

 

Back to Angad's room, Angad went and sat on the bed besides Ayush and looked at Kripa's photo in his little hand…..He never thought that this day would come……Divya was jelous of Kripa and Ayush's relationship and Kripa had left the house for them……May be for the short time…..but he had kept taunting her everytime he called telling her about how selfish she had become, but she had not said a word to him about Divya, and he knew why…….She regarded Divya as her sister, and did not want to embarrass her……But then shouldn't she have discussed this with him……? Time and again he had asked about why she looked so upset…….But then he had thought because may be she really missed her career and so he had let her go……..Though he remembered feeling a little bit troubled, as Kripa wanted to persue her career after so many years…….!! That too when they were planning to start a family of their own……..They had talked about having their own child since last year and suddenly out of blue Kripa wanted to leave……Why did he not understand and know that there might have been some reason, for her abrupt decision..…..He thought of the time, she had called him and asked him to come, and he had taunted her telling unlike her he had responsibilities to fulfill………and he had not even called her from last one month…...His eyes filled with tears…..He remembered the time when he had throwed away the phone, cursing her …….He closed his eyes with pain…..when he felt a hand on his arms…..he opened his eyes and looked up to see Kartik standing there……Angad looked away and Kartik had tears in his eyes too…..

 

Ka: Apne bhai ko aaj itna paraya kardiya…..ki ankh tak nahi mila raha hai…..he asked looking at him…..Angad looked down at Ayush and the photo in his little hand….….Divya ki aur se mein maffi mangta hun Angad……mein uske iss bartav se sharminda hun…..Tum par Kripa par kya biti hogi mein samajh sakta hun……He said looking down….Angad looked up….

 

A: Nahi bhaiya shayad galti Kripa ki hi hai……usse Ayush ko apne itne karreb ane hi nahi dena chahiye tha…..agar nahi ata, to Divya bhabhi ko aise insecurity feel hi nahi hoti…..he said with tears…..Sari galti ussiki hai…….He said angrily……..

 

D: Deevarji, aur sharminda mat kijiye mujhe….mein pehle hi apni najroon se gir chuki hun….Divya said coming in with tears and looked down guiltily….Jis din se apki shadi hui, kahin na kahin meri wajah se aap donon mein duriyan hui hai……iske bavjud aap donon ne humare liye itna saab kiya…..aaj mein aur Ayush sahi salamat hai, ye bhi Kripa ke aur apke karan hai…..Aur badlemein meine humesha aap donon ko juda kiya….na chahte hue duriyan badhai……Kisi aur ke bachon ko apna samajh kar pyar karna, to bahot kum logon se hota hai……Aur Kripa ne to apna sara pyar Ayush par lutaya, par meine badle mein ne sivay dukha kuch nahi diya..…Mujhe maaf kar dijiye….she said closing her eyes as tears fell on her cheeks…..Kartik looked at her with tears, but did not move…….He did not know what was right and what was wrong in all this, but knew one thing, what ever had happened had hurt Angad and Kripa and created distances between them……

 

A: Nahi bhabhi…..aap se koi shikayat nahi mujhe……aap apni jagah sahi thi, aur Kripa apni jagah…...bas apne aap se shikayat hai, ki mein kyun uska dukh nahi samajh sakha……Humesha usse hi kosta raha, yeh jaan hi nahi paya ki usske iss faisle ke piche bhi koi majboori hogi…….Sachai chipayi usne mujhse, galat kiya, par mein ne bhi to char saal ke humare iss rishte mein, phir se wahi galti doharai, jo pehle dohrai thi…..Tab to khair, hum ek dusre ko achi tarah jante bhi nahi the…..par aab itne saalon ke baad bhi usse samajh nahi saka….kaisa pyar hai mera, jissase pyar karta hun, uske ansu ko na samajh paya, na jaroorat padne par sahara de paya……tabhi to iss waqt wo akele wahan apne aap se juj rahi hai, jab usse meri jarurat hai…...He said looking down with tears, he wiped his tears angrily and suddenly got up and left the room as fast as his feet could take him…….he wanted to be alone……

 

Kartik and Divya looked at him sadly and then Divya looked at Ayush sleeping with Kripa's photo……She went to him and then started crying looking at him and the photo……Kartik looked at her for couple of minutes and then spoke out………

 

Ka: Divya, mere sath chalo…..he said angrily……

 

Divya looked up through her tears…….But when she saw him looking at her with disgust, she got up slowly and walked with him without a word, knowning she deserved this and more.……..

 

Back to Kripa, Kripa knew that Avantika was right that she was wrong for not telling Angad about all what happened between Divya and her, but she was even more guiltier that she had not even told Angad about her pregnancy….Kripa was counting her days……..Her ob-gyn had said that she could deliver any time soon now….But asked her to not to be so tensed all the time, as it was affecting her health…..But how could Kripa help it? It was not in her hand to reduce her guilt or not get tensed..…..

 

And she was even afraid a little of doing all this alone, but she gathered her courage and went to the baby store and bought basic things like diaper and few clothes….She bought a carseat and kept it in her car…..It was difficult to fix the car seat with so big tummy, but she managed some how…..She washed all the baby clothes and folded it and kept it in her suitcase……She kept her camera and couple of her clothes and some necessities in her bag as well……She would be all alone during her delivery, but she knew it was her own doing..……The thought bought tears, but knew tears would not help…...She just thought that some day Angad would forgive her for going away so abrubtly…….For keeping such a big secret from him…...She bought a small teady like the one she had bought for Ayush and hugged it…..She looked at Ayush's photos in her lap top…..

 

She had avoided video conferencing till now and tried to keep in touch with phone….Surya called almost every day, even if she forgot to…..When they scolded her for not calling, she just said she was busy…..Her mom told her that they were thinking of coming to US for few days, and Kripa was now really anxious about it…….But somewhere in her heart, she was looking forward to it as well…….

 

Harshini was busy in her job and only had Sundays left after busy schedule…..they had asked her to come stay with them several times….but Kripa was not comfortable with it and told so….They had given up, but called every day in the evening and came on Sunday or called her some times…..Kripa's back and feet hurt terribly and she told about it to the doctor, as the time of delivery came near…..She tried to massage a little and keep her legs in warm water some times…..but felt too tired and depressed to do it herself…..Her BP was also high, due to constant tension and tiredness……

 

Back at Prithvi's house, Prithvi and Harshini were arguing about telling Kripa's parents or not…..Prithvi felt like they should, while Harshini said, that Kripa did not want to….so they should allow her to do so…..Atlast after arguing for around 2 hours they finally went Prithvi's way…..Prithvi was right……Harshini knew that Kripa would need help after delivery…..now it was ok, but later with the baby, she did not know how she would cope……. And she could see how tired Kripa looked last time………So, they called Surya one night…..It was early morning in India…..Surya was happy to hear from them after a long time…..

 

P: Uncle, mujhe aapko ek jaruri baat karni thi….Kripa ke bare mein……he said hesitatingly……He did not feel good to break his friends trust…but had no option….

 

S: Kaho beta….kya baat hai…..Thik hai na woh….vaise kal hi baat ki meine ussase…..keh rahi thi college ja rahi hai…..lecture dene…..

 

P: Uncle woh yahan college nahi ja rahi hai…..haan ek do baar gayi thi….par bas, uske baad nahi……

 

S: Phir usne jhoot kyun kaha……he asked frowning…...Prithvi, kya chal raha hai…..kuch problem hai kya usse…..tum mile the…..

 

P: Haan uncle…..woh baat yeh hai ki…He looked at Harshini and she nodded asking him to tell…..Uncle, actually Kripa ne aap sab ko ghar se nikalte waqt ek baat chipai hai…..

 

S: Kaunsi baat beta, he asked frowning…….Mujhe kuch samajh nahi aa raha……saaf saaf kaho na…….

 

P: Who uncle, woh Kripa, India se jab nikali tab woh pregnant thi….he said closing his eyes….There it was out, he thought closing his eyes tightly………

 

Surya looked at the phone frowning and then asked him what he just said….

 

P: Haan uncle woh pregnant thi……Hume bhi woh yahan ane ke baad hi pata chala …..

 

S: Pregnant….? He asked looking at Gayatri, who frowned at him and came to him immediately……..Tum Kripa ki baat kar rahe ho na Prithvi? Hum ussase roj baat kar rahe hain…..ussane iske bare mein kuch nahi bataya……Gayatri took the phone from him with shaking hands…..

 

G: Prithvi…..kya keh rahe ho….Kripa pregnant hai? Prithvi gave the phone to Harshini, a little disturbed at the concern filled voice of Gayatri and he felt a little guilty of not telling her sooner as well….….Harshini slowly took over….

 

H: Haan Aunty….woh uske 8 mahine thode dinon pehle khatma hue…..Hummne bahot kaha ussase ki woh aap saab ko bataye, par maanti hi nahi thi, issiliye, uske mana karne ke bavajud, aaj aapko hum phone kar rahe hain…..Woh Kripa….keh rahi thi, ki jab tak bhabhi nahi kehti woh India wapas nahi jayegi…..Aur aap saab se chupaya kyunki usse dar tha ki aap usse wahan ane ke liye na majboor kar de…..Aab to waise bhi bahot der ho gayi hai Aunty, woh aab travel bhi nahi kar sakti…...Gayatri looked at Surya stunned, who shook his head and closed his eyes…..He was tired of Kripa's stubborn attitude……..He was already regreeting the support he gave for what she thought was the right thing to do, but this, it was just plain crazy and unbeilievable………How can she hide such a big truth from everyone, not even letting her husband know about it……..?

 

G: Beta, uski delivery date kab ki hai……Gayatri asked with shaky hands and heavy heart……..She sat down stunned and looked at the phone blankly…….

 

H: Aunty, doctor ne 13 din baad ka date kaha, par, aab yeh bhi kaha, ki aab kabhi bhi delivery ho sakti hai…She said guiltily…..she should have told her before…..Woh to humare sath rehne ke liye bhi taiyar nahi hai Aunty….akele reh rahi hai ghar mein…….Gayatri had tears in her eyes….

 

G: Beta hum log jald se jald pahunchne ki koshish karte hain….tum jara uska dhyan dena…..she said as tears flowed from her eyes……Uski tabiyat to thik hai na….aur bacha…?

 

H: Haan haan Aunty tabhiyat bilkul thik  hai aur bacha bhi…..….

 

G: Mein rakhti hun beta….hum jald se jald ane ki koshish karte hain…..she said and kept the phone with shivering hands….…..Ye Kripa……aise kaise kar sakti hai ye……..she asked slowly with disbelief and tears……….Suddenly, Surya and Gayatri were both silent and stood there speechless hearing this news….How could Kripa not tell them about so big news….and how would they explain Angad and his family…..They just were too shocked to react for few minutes……..But motherly love took over and Gayatri looked at Surya with tears……

 

G: Aap please ticket book kijiye….hume wahan jana chahiye…..Gayatri said after few minutes, concerned for Kripa……..Surya looked at Gayatri angrily…….And got up immediately…….

 

S: Kisliye?  ussne to nahi kaha na ki usse tumhari jarurat hai……akele manage kar rahi hai na…..to karne do!!…..he said angrily….koi nahi jayega wahan……Agar baad mein ana ho to aa jayegi…..bahot badi ho gayi hai tumhari beti……aab jarurat nahi hai usse tumhari ya meri……Yahan tak ki usse aab apne pati ki bhi jaroorat nahi hai……Jab usse hi bataya nahi itni badi baat ussise chipayi……..Aab usse humari ya kisi aur ki koi jaroorat nahi hai……woh sambhal legi..…..he said walking out of the house angrily……..Gayatri looked at him stunned, not knowing what to say or do.……She sat down with tears in her eyes and closed her eyes with pain……..Why did Kripa do this? The question haunted her making her wince..…….How would she manage all alone….She went to the phone and dialed Kripa's number…..but got the number engaged……Her hands shook…..She then tried Angad's number and he was also not picking the phone………Her eyes filled with tears……..Her hands shook a little, when she started dialing Avantika's number, not knowing how she will react to the news…….She kept the phone shaking her hand and quickly took the keys and started going down…….Same time, she saw Divya and Kartik coming up……She sighed in relief and ran half way to them tensed…..

 

G: Acha hua beta tum aa gaye…..she said closing her eyes as her eyes were filled with tears….….

 

Ka: Kya hua kakisa…..aap itni ghabrayi hui kyun lag rahi hai……he asked going to her and holding her arms with a frown…..….

 

G: Beta woh Kripa….she said with tears closing her eyes……

 

Ka: Kya hua Kripa ko….? He asked frowning, tensed hearing her name…….

 

G: Beta ek dum pagal ladki hai………Ek baar bhi dimak se kaam nahi leti, jazbaat mein aakar pata nahi kya kar jati hai……….She said closing her eyes with pain……..Divya stood there transfixed fearing what was coming…..

 

Ka: Par dadisa, hua kya hai…….He asked anxiously now…..

 

G: Beta, woh….woh usne ye baat humse chupai ki woh yahan se jate samay pregnant thi…..Prithvi ka phone tha…..woh wahan akeli hai…..she said crying…..uski delivery kabhi bhi ho sakti hai…..she said sitting down with tears……Pata nahi kya hoga aab……..Tumhare kakasa, pata nahi gusse mein kahan chale gaye, ye kehkar ki Kripa akeli kar legi, usse humari jaroorat nahi..……Par mein kaise usse akele chod dun, ma hun uski…….She said as her legs shook a little…… Kartik looked stunned, but held Gayatri, when her legs gave in..……Mujhe abhi jana hoga……she said with agony……Woh akele….kaise manage karegi saab…..She said holding his arms tightly……All color drained from Divya's face as well…….Beta….kuch bhi kar, par humari jald se jald ticket book kar de….Angad ka number bhi nahi lag raha hai, pata nahi kahan hai bechara…..she said putting a hand on her sweat filled forehead…..Kartik slowly took her in and made her sit on the sofa……..He sat down in front of her and slowly consoled her………

 

Ka: Kakisa aap chinta mat kijiye….mein  saab intajam kardunga…...aap chalne ki tayari kijiye……..Par pehle shanti se baithkar, ye pani pijiye……..Please shant ho jaiye…….he said slowly wiping her tears and giving her water and making her sit………Mein jald se jald tickets book kardunga……..app bilkul tension mat lijiye…..He said keeping a hand on her shoulder……Angad ko bhi bula lunga aur uski bhi taiyari kar dunga……...Divya tum kakisa ka khayal rakhna, aur packing mein madad karna…..he said looking at her angrily once and then running out without a word…..

 

He went home dejected as well as anxious……..

 

Avantika was standing there with Ayush in her hand, who was crying as well…….

A: Kartik Divya kahan hai……aur itne tensed kyun ho…….Dekho Ayush kab se roye ja raha hai…..Usse jara bula do……Jo bhi hua ho, aab woh bhul kar age ki socho……

 

Ka: Wahi kar raha hun ma……..He said  miserably………Apko ek khabar deni thi…..He said looking away blinking his tears………Woh Prithvi ka phone aya tha, Gayatri kaki ko…….Kripa…..He stopped taking a deep breathe and Dilip came from behind with a frown…….

 

D: Kripa kya? Thik to hain na woh? He asked immediately concerned and Avantika looked at him anxiously…….

 

Ka: Ji papa thik hai…..he said immediately not wanting to worry them………Par woh usne hum saab se ek sachai chipayi thi………He said looking down closing his eyes…….

 

A: Kaisi sachai beta, jaldi bata na, tu itna kyun hichkicha raha hai……Thik to hain na woh Kaunsi sachai ki baat kar rahe ho? She asked with a frown…….

 

Ka: Ma, woh pregnant hai…..Uska akhri mahina chal raha hai…..Kisi bhi waqt uski delivery ho sakti hai……..He said blinking his tears………

 

D: Kya? Dilip said stunned………Avantika just stood there too dazed to react…….Kya bakwas kar raha hai tu Kartik……Itni badi baat Kripa chipa kaise sakti hai hum saab se……..Jaroor koi galat femi hui hogi……Warna Kripa aise kar hi nahi sakti……..

 

Ka: Nahi papa, koi galat femi nahi hui……..Prithvi aur Harshini ke sath Gayatri kaki ki abhi baat hui thi…..Surya kaka ghusse mein ghar chod kar chale gaye aur Gayatri kaki ki halat to…….He said looking away……..This was all happening due to Divya, he thought angrily…….

 

A: Hey bhagwan, pata nahi ye saab kya ho raha hai iss ghar mein…….Aab Shrinathji hi ye saab suljhaye…….Iss ghar mein to saab apni maan mani karne lage hain……Aur aab ye…..!! Par Kripa se ye umeed nahi thi…….Choti baat hoti to thik, par itni badi baat chipana……..Aur aise waqt mein jab usse saab ki jaroorat hai, akeli wahan reh rahi hai? Ek vachan ke liye…….Kya uss nanhi jaan ki koi fikar nahi….She aksed to herself angrily with tears, when Dilip went to her and kept a hand on her shoulder stopping her, as Ayush was looking at them anxiously……

 

Dadi, who was listening to all this went to Avantika and took Ayush from her……..

 

D: Ja Avanti, Gayatri ke paas ja, pata nahi kya haal bana liya hoga ussne…….She said and Avantika nodded looking down…….Dilip tried to call Angad, but was not getting his number……Dilip went searching for Surya after a while, whereas Kartik talked to his travel agent for booking flights for Gayatri, Surya and Angad…..Angad had applied for green card and had got it a few months back….so he did not need visa……

 

Back to Gayatri, she was in total mess…..She was terrified and angry……How could Kripa not tell this to them….But she was even fearful about their health…..Divya could not speak a word to her, she was the one, who was most stunned in all this…..she just went in with Gayatri and packed their belongings, without a word…...Within 15-20 minutes, she was done..…..Avantika reached at Surya's house too……But there was no sign of Surya or Angad…..both were missing……Gayatri just sat on the chair putting her hands on her forehead and crying…..Divya just looked down ashamed…..There was nothing to say……Kripa was all alone there so far away, nearing her delivery, just because of her…..She had not said a word to them, just to keep her promise to her…..She felt worst than before….She remembered the times, when Kripa had taken care of her, during her pregnancy……massaged her backs and swollen legs, gave her hot water to keep her feet and relax, asked her what she felt like eating, took her for check ups, stayed in hospital all through her stay…..every step of the way, she had helped her…..but she had gone all through nine months alone, just due to her……She heard the door open and looked up to find Avantika standing there worried….Divya looked at her with tearful face, for couple of seconds, her guilt eating  her from inside and then ran down leaving Gayatri with her...She did not even know how to say sorry at the mess she had created……She ran straight to house and then to her room and closed the door……Gayatri was unaware of her grief, as her heart was already filled with fear for Kripa's welfare……...

 

Avantika went to her and kept a hand on her shoulder and Gayatri looked up at her with tearful face…….

 

G: Usse maaf kardo Avantika……Janti hun ki usne sachai chipayi tumse, aur tum saab bahot naraj honge ussase…..Uski aur se mein maffi mangti hun……She said putting her face in her hands and crying…..Avantika blinked back her tears and hugged Gayatri consoling her……..

 

A: Mein bhi uski ma hun Gayatri……Aur uss nate ghussa bhi hun…….Mujhe hak to hai na ki mein ussase puchun ki usne aise kyun kiya, aur jahan tak maffi ka sawal hai, jis tarah tum usse bina maffi mange maaf kar diya, mein ne bhi kar diya……Bas bhagwan se prarthana karungi ki woh aur uska bacha, sahi salamat ho……Apne dil se ye bojh uttar do…...She said, not wanting Gayatri to feel guilty about anything……It wasn't her fault that kids did not feel need to consult their parents now a days for important decisions like this…….They were all grown up and were doing what they felt right……May be it was time to just let go and see how they handle everything…….Anger gave no solution…….And she knew it…..

 

Back to Angad…..Angad saw 5-6 missed calls and frowned….they were from home…..He was sitting near the lake, where he and Kripa had sat together remembering those moments……..He did not want to talk to any one yet……But the phone kept ringing…..At last sighing, he took the phone, hoping every thing was alright at him….It was Kartik…..

 

Ka: Angad kahan hai tu….aur phone kyun nahi utha raha hai……kitni der se try kar raha tha…..he barked angrily….Gayatri Kakisa, Surya Kaka aur Tumhara flight book ho gaya hai……aaj sham ka flight hai…..tu turant ghar aaja….abhi…..Angad frowned…looking at the phone…..but he had kept the phone till then…..

 

Angad with heavy heart got up…..how could he say sorry to her after all he had said to her……..he thought closing his eyes…..No, he could not go there yet….He needed to tell that to Kartik….He tried calling him, but the phone was engaged….He slowly walked to his car and went home……The house was too silent……He frowned and went to Kartik's room but the door was locked and no one was opening……Sighing he went to his room and found Kartik, packing his bag……

 

A: Bhaiya….aap mera flight cancel kar dijiye….mein nahi ja raha…..Kartik looked at him wide eyed….

 

Ka: Kya? Angad……

 

A: Nahi bhaiya…..apko pata nahi, par meine gusse mein Kripa ko kya kuch nahi kaha……he said looking away….nahi mein uske samne nahi ja sakta…..he said with tears….

 

Ka: Ye jankar bhi nahi jaoge, ki woh tumhare bache ko janam dene wali hai, kisi bhi waqt……He asked looking at him……Angad froze in his tracks……He did not blink….just kept staring at Kartik, as if he lost his mind……

 

A: Ye aap kya keh rahe ho bhaiya? He asked freezed…..

 

Ka: Sachai bata raha hun Angad…….!!

 

A: Bhaiya, Kripa humse itni badi baat kabhi nahi chupati……he said slowly…..hoping he was right……His heart beating wildly…..

 

Ka: Tum ye baat bhool rahe ho, ki Divya ne usse Ayush ki kasam di thi Angad, yahan se thode dinon ke liye jane ke liye…..uske aur Ayush ke zindagi se thode dinon tak dur rehne ke liye……

 

A: Haan kasam di thi, par mujhe to kehti na, ki usse meri jaroorat hai, itni badi baat to woh mujh se kabhi nahi chipati…..he said trying not to believe what he was saying…..

 

Ka: Woh bulati to tum jate…..ya usse yahan le ate….? Kaho Angad kya karte…..? He asked with a sad smile…..

 

A: Of course yahan le ata…….wahan akele aisi halat mein usse kahan rakhta……usse to aise waqt par saab ki jarorat hogi…...he said frowning….Kartik shrugged…..Kya kehna chahte ho aap bhaiya…? He asked glaring….

 

Ka: Yahi, ki woh tumko achi tarah janti hai, samajhti hai…..Yeh to sirf tum ho, ki aaj tak usse samajh nahi paye…..he said looking down……Angad looked down silently getting the meaning of what he wanted to say…..Kripa had not told him because she knew, he would force her to come back and she was bound by her promise for not coming back…..that was the reason she had never told him…..Prithvi ka phone aya tha….ussane Gayatri Kakisa ko bataya ki Kripa ki delivery kabhi bhi ho sakti hai……..Angad's hand shook a little…….Kripa was really pregnant, rather very close to delivery, and all alone…..How was that possible……How is it possible that he himself did not know that he was going to be a dad……Kripa had 9 months worth of time…….but never said a word……That means she knew before she left……all color drained from him face……he looked at Kartik who was looking at him, who was still speaking to him…..aab tumhari marji….Tumhara bag pack kar diya hai meine….ye rahe tumhare aur kakasa ke tickets……Aur ye raha tumhara passport aur greencard….Agar jana nahi ho to tickets Gayatri kakisa ko de ana, aur kehna ki tum  Kripa ka sath iss mushkil ghadi mein nahi de sakoge….aur akar rona kamre mein usse yaad karke…..apne hone wale bache ko yaad karke……he said leaving the room sadly……Angad looked at the tickets and his bag……with heavy heart and shaking hands, he took the tickets and looked at it…..Kripa was pregnant? How could she hide such a big truth from them all through these months…..How had she managed all alone these 5-6 months……He had seen Divya struggling through her pregnancy…..He did not even imagine doing it all alone….He looked down sadly….Was her promise so important that she had hid her pregnancy and went through it alone….? He did not know the answer, but he would find out soon…..He was even a little angry as well as anxious……He took his bag and slowly went down…..

part 53
nice part...
why did u get this long to update Di?
finally all the truth is out...
but if Angad gets angry on Kripa i will kill him...
i honestly hate Divya...
and no one told her off or shouted or yelled at her but was pacifying her...
and Angad inspite of getting to know still at the beginning started to get angry on Kripa...
why the hell cant he show his anger on Divya when SHE is the one for all these troubles and pains?
at least Kartik is angry on Divya and is not like sympathizing with her...
poor Kripa...
hope no one scolds her, if they do, they better show it on Divya...
and Angad is such a disappointment...
now i cant wait to read the next part...
Kripa's first delivery...
BTW doesnt Surya get any medical reports of Kripa's now?
cont ASAP di...
plz dont delay this time...

Hey Deepa,
    Sorry, I had written it, but could'nt correct it due to navratri...!! Yeah Divya is the one due to whom this problems started, but it is difficult to understands ones feelings you know...To tell you the truth, when my mom first came for my delivery, I let her, but then after 15 days or so, I was so possesive of my baby, that my mom used to laugh at me...!! Divya though let Kripa be Ayush's mother for so long, in village people talk and some comment on it...Divya might just have ggot the wrong feeling and sudeenly all hell broke out...It is very necessary to think before reacting and Divya just lost it for a moment and she herself had to bare so much pain too...!!
 
Kripa is now 25 or so years old and doesn't go to the same doctor, she used to anymore...Afterall she is her own person now...Not under Surya's insurance, u can say...!!
 
Angad realized his mistakes...But he couldn't say anything to Divya, as she is his brothers wife...In india, younger brothers don't raise voice over their sister in law as it is considered impolite...Even in many families father in law and mother in law dont raise voice on their dauther in laws, knowing she would be hurt...Husbands are the only ones who correct their wifes and I have seen this custom in Rajashthan specially...

OMG...this was amazing...while i was reading this update i realized how apt the title of this ff is...rishte...especially when dadi was explaining it...its like with all of their probs...there is a new lesson abt each relationship...loved it...n it was great that divya finally realized n confessed her mistake...n glad angad foundout the truth before meeting kripa...i know h ewill be somewhat mad...bt i have feeling that he wont lash out on kripa...n same with everyone else...they will b mad at kripa bt when she delivers, n after looking at the baby they all will forget except divya...i am glad my preditiction on harshini n prithvi calling india...came true..n it was needed..bt despite of all this...divya will feel soo guilty n in order to redeem her guilt i think she nught give all her love to angad n kripa;s baby like kripa did with ayush. really looking forward to next part...plz continue soon!!

happy early dashera!!

oh i understand Divya's feelings to some extent but still the dislike i have for her for now is too much...no one in this world is so magnanimous and some people do slip at moments but the world take a ride only on the good people like Kripa...if Angad or anyone scolds Kripa then i dont think so i will be patient enough to tolerate this...oh and Mother's love and possessiveness to her new born will be at the maximum in fact theres no limit at all...Divya should have thought about this instead of pushing out another DIL of the house out of the house itself...thats so very wrong...nasamj hai ye Divya...though Kripa is younger one, brought up in a foreign land and had a complete different environ handled things so maturedly all the time...kudos to her...whens the next update?
