Hi all this is a multichapter fanfiction whereby Hanuman met Babita before Immarti (because Ashok divorced Babita earlier). Apologies in advance for any Hindi errors! Enjoy!
Prologue
The day Babita discovers she's pregnant is the day Ashok's law firm finally sends her the signed divorce papers. It is also the day her father finally succombs to the sadma of her failed marriage and dies of a heart attack. With a single stroke of a pen her entire life has been destroyed. The fact that it took just three years after her wedding for this to happen just adds further insult to the injury.
'We can overcome this, didi,' her brother tells her defiantly after the funeral rites have been completed, as if his new fiancee's family hasn't been pressuring him to kick Babita out of the house. I'm your brother and this is your house as much as it is mine. It doesn't matter if a thousand girls reject me, you will always be welcomed here.'
'I know and I will,' she continues to pack her bags regardless, but I can't live here any more. Smita's family is right. You can barely support two people with your salary. Adding me and a child to that is unfeasible. You should focus on building your family not overseeing the wreckage of mine.'
'What would you even do all alone out there, where would you go?' He grabs her arm. Think about this logically for a second, didi. The world is a harsh place as it is for women. But for a single mother out there all alone it's a junoon!' He takes a deep breath, Stay with me. Give me the opportunity to serve you how Laxman served Ram.'
'Laxman spent fourteen years in vanvaas because of Ram's choices,'Babita gives him a fond smile, I love you too much to allow that.' She presses a kiss to his forehead when he starts to cry. Don't worry about me bhai. I have a plan. I promise no harm will come to either me or the baby.'Edited by SK1509 - 5 years ago
