Neil was thinking about his memories with avni.....
After some time, Sam and jessica entered him room..

Sam : Neil...how are you this morning....? he asked entering inside

Neil who was still not over hid hangover.....with a aching head
he replied.....

Neil : Nothing....just a little hangover..... he said

Jessica : Wait...I will order some lemonade for you....You will feel better....

Neil nodded and then she dialed the hotel staff number and ordered a lemonade and breakfast for them

While they sat and discuss the next schedule

Neil : What's next Sam....?

Sam : London concert is over Neil... kal California me ek event hai...or uske baad back to Delhi....
toh hume aaj hi nikalna hoga...Main flight tickets book kr deta hu...and then we will leave.

Neil : Hmm...okay... neil repplied

Neil looks for his phone and found it missing.......he got worried.

Neil : M....mera phone...?Where is my phone...? he panicked and start looking for it everywhere in the room..

Jessica : Yahin hoga neil...Relax...

and they all searched for his phone..

Neil immediately realised that he might had left his phone in the bar last night...

Neil (panicked) : Ohh no....i think i left it there last night...No..no...i...i have to get it back....I cant lose it....

He panicked and gets restless for losing his phone.....he immediateley left to get his phone back....

Jessica : wait neil....Are you seriously gonna go back there and search it....?....its just a phone....We will get you a new one...! she said

Neil : No jessica.....I need THAT PHONE only....I have to find that one .....AT ANY COST....he said and picking his car keys he left to get his phone back.....

Jessica : God Sam....kabhi kabhi to mujhe lgta hai ki ye ladka bilkul paagal hai....Seriously ek phone ke liye itna pareshan ho rha hai...when he can buy the entire company.

Sam : Jaane do use jessica....You dont know but.....pichle 6 saalo me neil ne sab kuch badal diya....Lekin apna phone.....vo nhi badla. 6 saal se same phone use kr rha hai....

Jessica : Na jaane aisa kya hai uss phone me..... she said

On the other side, Neil reacged the bar, and was restlessly looking for his phone. He was asking the staff, the manager, the people around....but no one has seen his phone. He gets more and more restless. As of he had lost something very precious and near to his heart.

Neil talked to himself
No neil.....tu vo phone nhi kho sakta.....t..tujhe vo phone kisi bhi halat me dhundna hoga.....

He went to the managers cabin and said.....

Neil : Sir....I left my phone here....and i need that any cost. Aap kch bhi kijiye...par dhundiye mere phone ko.... I will give you whatever you want...but just find my phone.

Manager : Mr Neil.....Aap chinta mat kijiye....hume jaise hi apka phone milega....hum aapki team se contact krenge....dont worry.

Neil was helpless....he cant do anything so he nodded and decided to leave.

The manager escorted him to the door...but suddenly one of the bar staff came and said....

Staff member : Sir.....Is this your phone ? I found it in the lost property box.

Neil smiled looking at his phone.

Neil : Yes...yes...oh thank god you found it. he get his phone back and felt so relieved.....Thank you so much....you have no idea tumne meri kitni badi help ki hai....so tell me tumhe kya chahiye.

The staff member was a girl. She smiled and said...

Staff : SIr....aa...aapka autograph mil sakta hai....Or ek selfie... she asmed nervously

Neil smiled. "Thats it....ofcourrse"

He gave her his autograph and clicked a selfie with her.

Infact he clicked selfie with everyone who were present at the bar at that time.....

People were actuakly waiting for this moment. He smiled and was happy recieving so much love from his fans.

He thanked the manager and left taking his phone back.....

He was siting in his car. He looked at his phone and felt relieved.

That phone was very important for him . For two reasons.......

Firstly, because it was gifted to him by Avni. This phone is the only memory of Avni he had....therefore he always keep this phone with himself.

Secondly, it has a voice mail in it (dated 21st feb 2012) and that voice mail in it is a reason he got so scared when he thought he lost his phone. He listen to this voice mail everyday.

Neil while sitting in the car, kept the phone near his ear and listened to that voice mail.....

"Dear Neil, its me Avni.
I tried calling you so many times.... But you didnt picked up any of it.
I dont know what came between us....I thought we were friends before anything else....and that you can share anything with me. But...i think i was wrong.....

It's been 5 days neil...since you left me on our wedding day.
I still dont know why...why you left me alone on that day.
And after that...you didnt even cared to call me...or text me.....?
Kya ab hum itne ajnabee ho gaye hai neil...? Kya tum mujhe miss bhi nhi karte.....?

You....you really dont miss me...?

Anyways.... today....i called you on a purpose. I...i want to tell you something...Something important.
But....i can't tell you this on a voice mail. You need to call me for that.

And if you will not call me back now...i will never call you again.
I swear neil...I will never disturb you again.

I will find my way to cope up with this pain....and may be I will move on.

And..... even if you dont call,
I just want you to know....that I always love you...and care for you....and I am always there for you....!

When I gave you my heart.....i decided that you will have my heart forever.....!

...........voice mail ends.

After listening to the voice mail, neil closed his eyes in guilt.
A tears of guilt rolled down from his eyes.

6 years....every day....he never stopped listening to this voice mail. He listen to it everyday.....and still, even today he didn't gathered courage to call her back.

Neil's Pov

Har roz main iss voice mail ko sunta hu....taaki bas tumhari aawaz sun saku.....tumhe mehsoos kar saku....!

Lekin aaj bhi tumhe call karne ki himmat nhi juta paya main...

I am sorry avni......ho sake to mujhe maaf kar dena....
Lekin jo kuch bhi maine kiya tha....uske baad tumse nazare nhi mila pata main....
Tumhe face krne ki himmat nhi bachi thi mujhme.....or shayad aaj bhi nhi hai....!

pov ends

Neil sighed. He wiped his tears off.... kept the phone back in his pocket and went back to the hotel. He had to leave for California....for his next event.

....................

On the other hand
In India

In Evening.

Avni picked up Aarya from the school and they were heading to home

Avni : So aarya....how was your day at school....? .....avni asked joyfully driving the car....while arya sat on the passenger seat.

Arya sat their quitely....as she seems to be upset

Avni noticed her quite and sad...

Avni : Arya.....what happened bacha... Why are you upset? she asked concerning her.

but she didnt answered. Avni get worried. She stopped the car and looked at her.....She cupped her face and asked....

Avni : Arya....my doll.....muma ko nhi btaoge kya hua....hmm...? she asked politely cupping her face....

Arya looked up at her and said...

Aarya : Mom...today my friend said that her father bought her a new dress....and so many latest toys..?

Avni chuckled at her and smiled...

Avni : Hmm...so aapko bhi new dress or latest toys chahiye...Right?
So isme upset hone ki kya baat hai beta.....mumma hai na...
mumma apni princess ko usse bhi achi dress dilayegi.. she said smilingly.

to this aarya replied......

Aarya : Mujhe dress nhi chahiye....Mujhe toys bhi nhi chahiye.... she said looking deeply in her avnis eyes..

Avni : Toh kya chahiye....?

And that poor little girl let out her wish in front of her mother.....

Aarya : Papa... she replied innocently making avni silent....

Avni's face expressions changed and her body went numb at Aarya's wish..

As this was the moment....Avni always feared off.

( On one hand....there in London....Neil was preparing for his next trip to California for his upcoming music concert....
While on the other hand.... here in India......Aarya just expressed her wish to meet her father. She asked her mother to bring her dad to her....)

Will their paths will ever came across.....?

Will Arya, ever be able to meet her dad...?

Will Neil, ever be able to know that he has a daughter in India....?
