FLASHBACK

Abhi: Fuggi...

Child Abhi said to Pragya, who gave a glare to him.

Pragya: I'm not Fuggy

Pragya protested with a cute pout.

Abhi: You look like a balloon, so you are fuggy.

Pragya: I'm not

Abhi: You are

Pragya: I'm not

Both Abhi and Pragya started to fight. Bulbul, who saw all this, began to cry, seeing them. Bulbul felt someone lifting her, and soon, she buried her face on the person's neck.

Priya: Shh... Don't cry, darling...

Priya patted Bulbul's back, comforting her, whereas Abhi and Pragya stopped their fight, seeing Priya.

Priya: Again, you both have started to fight.

Pragya: I swear mamma, I didn't do anything. He only called me Fuggy.

Pragya said pointing Abhi.

Bulbul: Yes, awntie.

Bulbul said, still crying. Abhi looked at Priya with a puppy face.

Priya: Abhi, why you called like that?

Abhi in a low tone: She looks like a balloon, that's why auntie. Sorry.

Abhi said, with a sad face.

Priya: Aww... Come here.

Priya hugged Abhi, whereas he hugged her happily. Breaking the hug, Priya said...

Priya: But she doesn't like it na.

Abhi: I don't like to call her with any other name other than fuggy.

Priya chuckled, hearing him.

Priya: Do you like your fuggy?

Abhi nodded his head up and down, hearing her. Priya looked at Pragya, who was standing there silently.

Pragya: You like me?

Abhi nodded as yes. Pragya smiled, seeing him, whereas Abhi's face also became brighter. Pragya took a chocolate from her pocket and gave it to Abhi. Abhi got it from her happily.

Priya: So, you both are friends from now onwards?

Priya asked whereas both nodded as yes. Smiling, Priya hugged both of them happily.

FLASHBACK ENDS

Abhi: Is Pragya is Fuggy?

Bulbul nodded as yes, whereas Abhi signed a breath. He rand his fingers on his hair and sat on the nearby sofa, whereas Bulbul sat next to him.

Abhi: It's been 20 years, but I have never expected that I would meet you both in this situation.

Abhi said bitterly, whereas Bulbul wiped her tears.

Bulbul: I didn't mean to hide it from you, Abhi. But, I don't have guts to say about it. After you went, many things have happened Abhi. There are many bitter memories and incidents which is killing us both daily. I thought that Pragya has moved on, but after you said only, I realized that she is still suffering because of it.

Abhi: I can't wait for more than this Bulbul. I want to know the truth. What happened to Pragya? What happened to Priya auntie? And how she is, your bade ma?

Abhi asked a lot of questions.

Bulbul: Please give me one day's time. I don't have the energy to tell you the truth.

Abhi: And I don't have the patience to wait.

Abhi snapped back.

Bulbul: I assure you. I will tell you the truth for sure, but I can't tell you about it now. I don't dare to say it now. Please give me some time.

Abhi: When you would say me the truth?

Bulbul: Tomorrow.

Abhi gave a disbelief look.

Bulbul: Trust me, Abhi. You deserve the truth, and I will say it.

Abhi signed and went from there reluctantly.

At Night

Pragya was waiting for Abhi nervously in her home.

Pragya thinks: Where he would have gone? What if he decides not to come here?

Pragya's nervousness reached it's peak, thinking about the consequences. Her assumptions became wilder.

Pragya thinks: Why are you getting afraid? You are not a normal woman. You are Pragya Arora... No, Pragya Mehra. What if he leaves you? Let him go. I won't care. Really? Won't I care? How could I stop caring? I f***k*** love him. What to do? Shall I call him? Anyways he won't attend my calls. What to do?

All her blabbers came to an end when she saw Abhi coming.

Pragya: He is here. What to do? Let me go and lie on the bed. He would think that I would have slept.

Pragya immediately went to her bed and lied down, pretending to be sleeping. Abhi entered the room and saw Abhi, sleeping.

Abhi's pov: After doing everything, are you sleeping as if nothing happened? Fuggy, now my mind is telling me to give a punch on your face, but before doing that, I have to know what you are hiding from me? What secret is haunting you fuggy, and how did you change like this?

Abhi stood there and looked at her for some time and went from there to get fresh up. After getting ready, Abhi came and lied on the bed. He looked at Pragya, who dozen to sleep. Signing, he also closed his eyes and slept.

Midnight

Abhi stirred in the sleep, hearing Pragya's murmuring voice. He opened his eyes and looked at Pragya, who was again blabbering in her sleep, whereas her face was filled with sweat.

Pragya: Please... Don't do this... Please... (Shouting) Stop...

Abhi pulled her and hugged her tightly, rubbing her back.

Abhi: Shh... Pragya, nothing is happening. No one is doing anything.

Pragya: Please... Leave her... Please...

Abhi: Pragya, nothing is happening. Look, I'm near you. Just sleep.

Pragya hugged him tightly and soon drifted to sleep. Abhi looked at her, whereas his past memory flashed in front of him.

FLASHBACK

Abhi shouting: Fuggy...

Abhi ran towards Pragya, shouting, who was playing with Bulbul.

Pragya: What happened Rocky?

Pragya noticed Abhi looking sad.

Pragya: Why are you sad?

Abhi: We are leaving town soon.

Abhi said sadly, whereas Pragya started to cry vigorously. Bulbul, who saw her, also began to cry.

Abhi: Why are you crying, Fuggy?

Pragya: I would miss you.

Abhi: Me too.

Abhi said in a low tone.

Abhi: You also come with us. We would be together.

Pragya: I can't leave mamma.

Abhi: Let us take Priya auntie also.

Pragya's face became brighter, hearing him.

Bulbul: Me....

Bulbul continued to cry, seeing their ignorance.

Abhi: I will take you also with me.

Bulbul stopped crying and started to giggle, hearing him.

Abhi: Sarla, let's take Fuggy, her mother, Bulbul, her mother, and her father also with us.

Sarla chuckled, hearing him.

Sarla: Why, Abhi?

Abhi: I would miss them.

Sarla: Aww...

Sarla hugged Abhi.

Sarla: We can't take them with us, Abhi.

Abhi: Why?

Sarla: Because we have our job in Mumbai, whereas your fuggy's mother has a job here na. We can't take them with us.

Abhi: How can I leave Pragya here?

Abhi started to cry, hearing him mother, whereas Sarla cupped his face and wiped his tears.

Sarla: Do you love your fuggy that much?

Sarla asked whereas Abhi nodded as yes.

Sarla: Don't worry. Once you become a big boy, you would get together with your fuggy again.

Abhi: What I have to do to become a big boy?

Abhi asked innocently.

Sarla: You have to wait. Will you?

Abhi: I will.

Abhi said, wiping his tears, whereas Sarla smiled.

Next Morning

Abhi came to the playground, where Pragya was waiting for him.

Pragya: Abhi, will you take me with you?

Abhi: Pragya, I can't take you with me.

Pragya: Why?

Pragya asked, sadly.

Abhi: Because your mother has a job here, whereas my papa has a job in Mumbai. But I can ensure that once I became a big boy, I would come and take you with me.

Pragya: Really.

Abhi: Yes and ma said that for that we have to wait.

Pragya: I would wait for you.

Abhi: Pinky promise.

Abhi asked, showing his finger, whereas Pragya interlinked her finger with his.

FLASHBACK ENDS

Abhi chuckled, thinking about his past.

Abhi's pov: I have never expected that fate would play a game to bring us together for the promise we made.
