Yes, "marry me." raaji said moving closer to him..

How dare you? Aditya almost raised his hand to slap her..

Wow atleast let your hand touch me in this way.. raaji tried to catch his palm..

Aditya took it immediately when her hand brushed his palm..

Adiiii pls....

Shut up... Just shut up...

Dare you talk to me like that? Call me Aditya.. not adiii... Mind your words before using it.. Aditya warned raaji pointing his finger on her face..

Raaji chuckled...

"Why?" Only your aditi have right to call you adiiii? Not me?

Dare you spell my wife name one more time.. you'll see what I'll do to you.. Aditya gritted and pushed her aside opening the car door.

Wait.. is this your final decision? She asked..

Aditya didn't mind to listen to her nonsense and got into the car..

"What if I say adhira is my own blood! And I'm her own mother?"

Listening to that Aditya looked at her in shock...

Adhira is your baby? Aditya asked once again assuring..

Yes.. here's the report. My medical records of her birth in that hospital and DNA report which I made for your clarity..

Aditya got down from his car and looked into the reports..

What? Atleast now I guess you'll listen to me? She asked looking at Aditya..

Let's make a deal... I'll let my baby to live with you and your wife.. but - on one condition...

If you marry me.. I'll never let this truth go out..

You think it's possible? I have adopted her legally.. so you can't do anything nor you can't touch my daughter.. Aditya warned her..

Hahahaha... How fool you're adi! I pity you.. you can't stop me in any way from taking adhira along with me if you aren't ready to marry me..

I love you sooo much... Pls let's marry... She pleaded holding his hand..I loved you since sooo long.. But don't know you were married already.. what's my fault if I fall in love with you?

Do you think my love for you is fake? I tried to forget you and moved on in my life.. but you are the one who came into my life once again making me drag to you back..

What's my mistake if I loved you? Don't I deserve a second chance in my life?

Raaji you deserve the best in your life.. you can marry someone else and start your family.. but aditi can't conceive.. she looks after your baby Very well.. pls don't think of separating her from our lives.. she came to us a gave abundant love.. pls Aditya pleaded..

Noooo I want you in place of my daughter... Say yes or no?

Don't you understand, aditi is sensitive.. she suffered a lot in her life. pls don't do this.. I beg you.. Aditya said..

You only think of aditi? But not me? I want you Aditya pls. She tried to engulf him.. leave her and come to me.. me ,you and our baby... It's enough for me. Raaji said with hope..

You're soo cruel to think like that...

Do whatever you want.. I'm ready to fight for my daughter.. but I won't leave my wife.. nor I'll marry you..

Think once again...

Dream on ...keep dreaming....

I'll never let your shade also to fall in our lives...

Aditya threw the papers on the floor and left from their driving his car ...

**************

Heyy come it's almost cake cutting time.. aditi shouted to get attention...

Yes we're ready... Aditya said holding adhira in her cute Mickey mouse costume...

Excuse me....

Hearing that everyone turned to look at the door step to find raaji..

What are you doing here? Aditya almost shouted..

Pls give my daughter back... Raaji cried making everyone shock..

What is adhira your baby? Nakul asked in confuse tone..

Yes. She's mine... Look here the reports...she said giving them to Nakul..

My husband left me the next day of our marriage making me cry for my fate.. I stayed strong coz it's not my mistake even after listening to the society cruel words.. thought to die... But the little tiny life within me stopped my decision and I lived for her...

My mother faked drama telling I lost my baby before her birth itself.. to avoid her in my life so that I can get remarried...

I never thought of that remarriage thing.. But my fate gave me hints of my blood dragging me once again where I met aditi for the first time with my baby in her hand..

Even though I don't know she's mine i was there when she needed me..

When I saw the birth mark on her leg I'm confused yet got curious.. my luck I found they have adopted her..

Then i confronted my mom knowing that my baby is alive and was adopted by someone..

That someone turned out to be you both..

My only hope in my life is she... I want her... Pls give her back to me.. raaji fell on her knees infront of aditi who's is holding her more secured with tears ..

Nooo I won't give.. "she's mine.." Aditi said walking towards the room locking it..

Raaji moved towards the door and started banging on it...

Aditi plss I beg you... Don't harm her.. don't show your anger on me on my baby.. she cried ..

What? Why would she do that? Everyone started murmuring..

Coz she knows I'm the biological mother of adhira... Since then she never allowed me to meet my baby.. raaji said..

I'm sure she might be harming her.. raaji cried out..

Nooo she won't do anything.. Aditya said assuring..

Who knows she might show her anger on the poor soul.. one of the person shouted from the crowd..

Everyone started banging on the door..

Aditi sat in corner holding adhira to her chest.. don't cry baby I'm here only she said rocking her back..

Hearing adhira cries Everyone started breaking the door.. only to find aditi holding baby securely..

Aditya walked to aditi who's crying.. pls tell her not to take the baby away.. aditi cried holding Aditya arm..

Let's give her baby... Aditya said...

What? Aditi shocked listening to him..

Yes police have arrived.. we have to handover adhira to raaji.. he said taking the baby from her hands .

Adi noooo.... Aditi pleaded not letting her goo .

But Aditya picked up baby and gave it to raaji.. who happily wiped her tears and left from there..

How can you do this ? Nakul asked Aditya..

It's sensitive case that we can't even win in the court.. it's about emotions, affection and love of a mother.. let her be happy.. Aditya said looking at aditi who's fuming yet broken...

Few days later her neighbour Nandini came to meet aditi to Make her feel comfortable so that aditi might play with her son and feel pleasant..

Aditi sat down looking at the kid playing with adhira toys..

Aditi got tears thinking of her baby.. Nandini tried to console her but aditi couldn't hold anymore and busted out crying..

Aditi got up walking towards the room hardly taking steps but fell down due to weakness...

Nandini helped her making her lay on bed and stayed till Aditya got back..

Seeing her like this, Aditya cursed and taunt her for not taking food..

Aditi seemed to leave him ignoring his taunts and lost in her own moody world..

Next day Anita called aditi and asked about her well-being?

Aditi said she's fine...

I should have come today.. but my periods making me feel bad,Anita said in full tone..

It's ok Anita take rest.. I'll call you later. Aditi said ending up the call..

Periods? I'm also due since 2 months? But how can this happen?  Her mind striked something..

What if I'm pre-!?

She went to near by medical store and got kits to check..

After coming back to home,she tried to enter into bathroom but her heart raced superfast making her unstable..

What if I'm not? Her face frowned looking at the kit in her hand .

What if I'm? She thought and checked...

Her eyes went blurry.... She closed her mouth blinking her eyes to get more assured..

Baby?

My baby came back to me? She cried in happiness...

But her thoughts went to Aditya...

What would be his reaction?
What if this report isn't true?

Then she thought to get checked by proper reports.. she left to hospital and gave the required samples for testing.

***********************

Let's adopt another child.. Aditya said to aditi who's chopping veggies..

For what? Aditi said and paused a while and continued, So that her mom come and take her back? I don't want to adopt anymore.. leave me like this, Aditi replied leaving from there..

Aditya is shocked observing her strange behavior now a days..

She kept ignoring him since the day she rejected adoption.. Even he tried to convince her she didn't even listened to him..

Aditi just kept doing her routine in cooking and other works..

After keeping breakfast on table, she didn't even called him. She sat and started eating..

It's not like I hate when she eats early than me. But I want to spend each our mean time together..

Before she she used to wait for him. But now she's not even waiting for him at least for dinner..
She even sleeping early, I saw her getting restless now a days! She's hurry burry in every work,.

Aditya sensed something wrong!

He thought of talking to her next day!

After getting ready, he moved to kitchen and saw she wasn't there.
Then he moved to balcony and then tried to enter the other room.. But it is locked from inside...

Hearing the knock from outside. Aditi went hurriedly to open the door and saw Aditya observing her keenly.

What's wrong with you, he asked caressing her cheek..

No- not-hing she tried to cover up, moving out closing the door behind..

Aditya pulled her back to him, caging her in his arms..

I know you're hiding something from me!

Aditi's eyes widened listening to him.. Nothing Aditya.. I'm just dusting the room. It's been long I haven't cleaned it, she said hiding her looks..

Ok I'm leaving to office now.. Will be back soon. We'll go out..

Ok she said coming out from his grip..
As soon as he left aditi went to lock the door. And moved to the same room where she was a while ago..

She stood in front of the mirror and glanced at the kit keenly..
And she lifted her top observing her tummy in mirror!?

She starred at herself, caressing her tummy..

She turned to find her phone ringing, immediately looking at the screen, she answered to it..

Yes! I'm aditi..

Your reports are positive..

What❓ listening to the news her eyes turned blurry..

If you want to meet the doctor, I'll fix an appointment for you in an hour.

Ok thankyou.. She said ending the call..

She couldn't hold herself anymore after hearing the news from the lab reports..

She slided down holding the table, looking at her tummy.. She caressed it overwhelming..

Baby?!

Can you hear me?

I lost you once.. But now I won't repeat that mistake again.. I'll protect you from everything.. I promise you to bring you out to this world. I just wanted to move out far from your dad..
I can't hide your growth right! If he got to know about you, he'll think more about me than you..

"It's not like he doesn't love you", he loves you soo much but he's just afraid..

We'll go far away from here and once reaching out there I'll tell your Dad about you! Ok? She said palming her tummy..

My baby is soo good. Listens to mumma right! She turned to take the reports from the drawer..

She went to meet the doctor, after attending the call..

It's a rare condition for you to get pregnant..
And one more thing is you're suffering from Eclampsia..
It's difficult to save either you or baby..

Is this the reason Aditya hiding from me? He cares more about me than the baby? She thought.

I can't take your lone decision in this.. We have to meet your husband or parents, the doctor said..

Doctor! I'm living separately from my husband.. We no longer can stay together.. Aditi said looking down.

But your parents?

They're no more in this world, she said reminiscing about them..

But in future if something happens to you? who's gonna take care of your baby?

My husband... He's very good person.. He'll be the best Dad.. she said looking at doctor.

I can't assure you, but think once again doctor said with concern looking at her..

"I want the baby", aditi said without thinking.. I want the baby, plsz doc I lost once and I can't lose once again..

Ok! But it's not like it's difficult but you have to take care of your health.. Being doctors we can't hide the truth from patients..

Baby is fine, just you have to take progesterone shots for uplifting..

Aditi nodded ok.. Whatever might be I want this baby, plsz help me.. I'll follow whatever you say. I'll take care of my health and everything..

Don't worry I can understand your emotions,..

She explained me well about how and when to take medicines and talked to me nicely..

After taking the reports I went down slowly holding the railing..

I went back to home feeling happy.. More than my health issues I'm happy for carrying my child, our child..

After getting back to home aditi started packing her bags to move far away from him..

If he finds the truth he'll never allow me to go ahead.

_______________________

she went to the guest room where she had kept all her reports, medicines and her file given from hospital and prescriptions given by doctor. She collected all those papers and kept them in the bag where she already packed her luggage filled with her clothes and some money..

She came out dragging that bag towards the Hall way and saw the pics of Aditya and hers together.. She went to the wall and picked up the frame..

Aditi caressed Aditya's face in it and hugged it to her heart shredding out her unwanted tears..

At this crucial period, when I needed you the most I'm going far away from you Aditya..

I would have never leave you but I even know that you'll never allow me to take risk from my side.. But I want to feel it..
I want to let her grow in my tummy.. I want to feel every pleasure as a mother.. It's the best gift a girl can get.. But as a mom I love my child who's still growing inside.. So for giving her birth I need to move away from you.. I promise I'll take care of our child.

And I don't want to miss this chance of getting my baby to this world as our child and I don't want to miss this chance at any cost.. She said with determination..

"I love you Aditya" , aditi cried hugging the photo frame... She took back the photo and looked at their smiling faces when they clicked as selfie..
She smiled remembering that day.. And took the photo frame along with her towards the bag opening the zipper of her bag she kept the photo frame of them in between the clothes..

She saw aditya's hoodie which she's taking along with her.. Even I miss your warmth I can feel it wearing your t-shirts husband! Aditi chuckled touching his t-shirt..

Aditi closed the zipper of the bag and got up and looked around the whole house..

The same house where they had fun, love, hugs, kisses, adhira! Aditi cried thinking about adhira and walked towards the door to move out..

When she opened the door and turned to pick the bag to keep it out!

Her eyes fell on ground to see someone standing in front of her..

She recognize these shoes, she lifted her chin up to see Aditya??

Aditi stood spellbound looking at him..

Where are you leaving? He questioned aditi folding his hands over his chest...
