(Recap-- Dhara delivers a baby girl)

Gautam and Shiva enter the room where Dhara was resting. Their daughter was lying adjacent to her. Dhara woke up with the sound of door and her eyes fell on Gautam.

She was tired and exhausted but her happiness knew no bounds. She gave him a smile. He comes and hugs her. He sees his daughter and kisses her.

Shiva also kisses her niece. This moment all of them have been longing for.

SHIVA- Congrats Bhabhi...and Thankyou.

DHARA- What did doctor say? Everything is fine na?

SHIVA- Yes dear Bhabhi. Everything is fine. We will take you two home tomorrow. Till then take rest.

GAUTAM- Shiva take your phone out.

Shiva obeys and clicks a family picture. All three of them post the picture on social media because they want the whole word to know how happy all of them are today.

Shiva posts the picture and writes the caption"Welcoming our little bundle of joy--2.33 pm". Yes he was the only person who took the note of time. Raavi didn't see the post because she hardly saw social media these days.

Jagat saw the picture on all of their profiles and informed Prafulla. They were really happy for Dhara and Gautam. Shiva and Raavi's relationship had made all of them family.

But they had tears in their eyes. They knew Raavi would want to see the baby and Dhara as she gets the news. Her lovely Dhara Di was so happy and she always wanted to be part of her happiness. But destiny had its own plans.

Next day at breakfast,

MA- Raavi we want to tell you something.

RAAVI- What happened Ma?

PA- See this.

He showed her the picture and her expressions changed. She was so happy. For the first time in these four months, they had seen her so happy.

RAAVI- Everyone must ne so happy. Congrats Bhaiya, congrats Bhabhi.

MA-You don't want to see her?

Raavi didn't say anything. She just ate her food silently. She so wanted to call Shiva and Dhara. Only if fate had not played with her, she would have become Chachi by now.

Her phone suddenly rang and she came out of her thoughts. It was a reminder message. She had to visit het gynaecologist today. Yes, her cramps had been growing more and more painful. So she met doctor each month.

She had to go to the same hospital where Dhara was admitted. She assumed they would have gone home by now. She didn't want to face them.

At around 10 a.m, she reached the hospital. She was in the waiting area adjacent to dispensary when suddenly Gautam arrived there to take the medicines.

Gautam saw her and was shocked. What was she doing in the hospital, with a few reports. She was just sitting when Gautam called her name.

GAUTAM- Raavi..

She turned and cursed herself for coming there. She could not act on front of all of them. But now,she had to face it. She turned.

RAAVI- Bhaiya(emotional)

GAUTAM- How...How are you? Is everything alright?

RAAVI- Yeah Yeah I am fine. I just came for a regular check up.

GAUTAM- Oh Okay.

He turned to leave because he was in a hurry.

RAAVI- Bhaiya...

GUATAM- What happened Raavi?

RAAVI- Congratulations Bhaiya. You are a father now. How is Bhabhi and baby?

GAUTAM- Oh how do you know?

RAAVI- I saw your pictures. A happy family portrait.

GAUTAM- Ooh. Both of them are fine. We'll go home tomorrow.

Raavi gave a smile. Gautam could sense that she still had care and concern for her beloved Dhara Di. She wanted to meet her. Keeping what all she did aside, he knew she really loved this family.

GAUTAM- Won't you meet your Dhara Di?

RAAVI- Me? But how?(stunned)

GAUTAM- Please come Raavi.

Raavi couldn't refuse him and went with him. She was a little hesitant to enter the room but still she proceeded.

Shiva saw them and was shocked. Why was she here? What did she want? Why were they meeting twice in two days? He looked at Gautam who gave him a look to let it be.

GAUTAM- Dhara someone has come to meet you?

She saw Raavi and a tear escaped her eyes.

DHARA- Raavi! You?

RAAVI- Yeah I had just came here and saw Bhaiya so I thought of...Congrats Di..I mean...just congrats...

DHARA-Thanks Raavi. How are you?

RAAVI- I am fine(heavy heartedly looking towards Shiva)

There was an unexplained awkwardness between all of them. None of them knew what to say or how to act at the moment. Raavi kissed the little girl and decided to move. As she was exiting, her stomach started paining.

Yes it was her cramps. She had now become used to them but they all got frightened. Shiva just forgot everything and held her. He could right now see only the girl he loved was in  lot of pain.

SHIVA- What is happening Raavi?

DHARA- This is exactly like that day, you remember?

GAUTAM- I am calling the doctor.

The doctor came and took Raavi to another cabin.

GAUTAM- I had asked her if she was fine. But she didn't tell anything.

DHARA- Same thing had happened one day before engagement also.

SHIVA- I just hope she is fine.

He remembered previous day also, she had got a call from gynaecologist. He was getting restless.

DHARA- Shiva go and check on her. Maybe she needs help.

SHIVA- But Bhabhi.

DHARA-Go Shiva.

He went to the cabin but stopped at the entrance listening to what they were talking.

DR- Raavi tell me did you skip your medicine?

RAAVI- No doctor.

DR- So that means I need to increase your dose.

RAAVI- Fine doctor.

Raavi got up and saw Shiva on the door. She started walking out avoiding him but he held her.

SHIVA- What is happening Raavi? Yesterday that call and now this. You are alright?

RAAVI- Shiva leave me.

SHIVA- Tell me Raavi.

RAAVI- Shiva I can't tell you. It's my personal problem. Please leave me.

Shiva left her hand and she proceeded. But she stopped and called his name.

RAAVI- Shiva! Congratulations. I am sure your niece will get too much love from her Chachu( watery eyes)

Shiva didn't understand why was she crying. His eyes got watery too remembering the day they got this news. How excited she was.

As Raavi started to move towards the exit of hospital, she again felt a slight pain. Her condition didn't go unnoticed by Shiva. Gautam advised Shiva to drop her home because she won't be able to drive.

SHIVA- Raavi stop. I'll drop you home.

RAAVI- No it's Ok. I'll manage.

SHIVA- I said I'll drop you. That's it.

RAAVI-Fine(Reluctant)

As they sat in the car, Raavi started the music to avoid communication but had to stop ot because a heartbreak song played making both of them upset.

SHIVA- So...how is your job?

RAAVI- It's good. My team is really supportive and my head really likes my work.

SHIVA- Wow..

RAAVI- What's up with your store?

SHIVA- Oh amazing. We are soon opening one more branch. This kid is really lucky for all of us.

RAAVI- Right. Accha, have you found someone?(wanted the answer to be yes)

Raavi really wanted Shiva to move on but had little hopes because of that ring on his finger((previous chapter)).

SHIVA-No(he looked straight into her eyes)

This hurt her heart to see this lively man suffering so much for her and because of her.

There was a sad silence.

Shiva's eyes fell on her reports again and he got worried.

SHIVA- Raavi I hope you don't have any serious issues. This pain again like you are alright na?

RAAVI- Yeah..Yeah I am fine. It's just that it's a very very personal problem and I can't tell you about it( she said hesitatingly)

But Shiva knew that she was lying. He was aware of her each and every emotion and feeling. He was the one who knew her the most. He didn't say anything further but decided that he will soon find out what's going on with her.

He dropped her to her home and left. But universe was with Shiva this time. She forgot her reports in his car only. Those reports had each and everything written about her medical condition plus the dates she had visited the doctor.

That's it for this part.
I know I am not putting many happy moments on these parts but don't worry, next part is the revelation.
