Settling down on the swing Naina pulled out phone from her pocket and unlocked the folder secured with password... her soft lips curled up in a bright smile, "dekha maine bhi password rakhna seekh liya... aapne kaha tha na ki koi meri privacy mein interfere kar sakta hai, so I learnt to hide my private life from others, my feelings for you will only remain in my heart..."

"Jab aapse pehli baar mili thi toh kuchh nahin tha mere paas aisa jise mein apna kah sakti thi, jise duniya se chhupana padta... lekin ab mere paas duniya ki sabse anoml cheej hai.... hamare khubsurat anmol pal ... sabse chhupa kar aapki yaadein, aapki tasveer, hamare special moments maine apne dil ke saath iss mobile mein bhi bandh kar rakhe hai... yahaan mere aur mere dil ke siwa kisi ko iss privacy mein aane ki izazat nahin..."

Caressing his face on her screen she laughed slowly, "aapko bhi nahin... yeh meri duniya hai, jahaan sirf aur sirf aapka pyaar mere saath hai, lekin aap nahin... mujhe aapse koi shikayat nahin kyunki hum chaahe ek dusre se kitna bhi pyaar kar lete lekin hamare beech ka difference, hamari soch shayad kabhi nahin mil paate... no doubts ek businessman hone ke saath aapke upar Maheshwari khandaan ki jimmedari bhi hai... Nanu ki bohot ummidein judi huyi thi aapse aur aapka farz banta tha ki aap iss naam par kabhi daag na lagne de... aur hamara saath aapko shayad kamjor kar deta..." she stopped feeling a lone tear rolled on her cheek...

बड़ी अजीब सी बंदिश है उसकी मोहब्बत में,
न वो खुद क़ैद कर सके न हम आज़ाद हो सके।

Flashback (4 yrs back)... at Maheshwari Mansion

Coming back to her room after meeting Sameer, she closed the door behind her to avoid seeing by anyone to her in this vulnerable situation... her knees buckled down from beneath her and she fell on cold floor with a thud voice... loud sobs escape from her mouth as her tears fell down one after the other... she buried her head into her hands and screamed loudly... she felt nothing but pain in her heart as it broke into tiny shards...

She remains sitting there holding the legal papers in her hand... her tears betrayed to fall from her eyes continuously which she was holding to shed in front of him...

The memories of last few days flooded her brain, and she felt the tears falling down again... her vision blurred, and her hands shook as she read the paper again n again... her thoughts were consumed by him and by the memories that they shared...

Every part of her belonged to him. Her heart, her mind, her soul

It was all his to take. And he did take it, but he gave it back to her, emptied...

Naina between her hiccups stared the documents in hand, "aapse sunane ke baad bhi mujhe yakeen nahin ho raha ki yeh sab aapne socha hai... aap kaise mujhe mere bachche se alag karne ke baare mein soch bhi sakte hai... mein pyaar karti hoon aapse aur aapke pyaar par mujhe ab koi shaq bhi nahin lekin..." she recalled how Karthik was worried about Amrita knowing no one will accept her child... in royal families these matters are extremely sensitive, and no one will accept someone's else child... is this the reason Sameer also hide her pregnancy from Nanu...

She cried even hard that after knowing their reality she still keep her hope , "kehte hai pyaar mein logon ko bohot kuchh sehna padta hai... apni manjil paane ke liye kuchh qurbaan karna padta hai lekin mein shayad bohot kamjor hoon... aapne aaj tak bina maange mujhe har voh Khushi di hai jiske baare mein maine socha bhi nahin tha lekin mujh mein nahin himmat aapki yeh khwahish poori karni ki... mujhe maloom hai bade khandano mein kuchh riwaaz, kuchh daayre hote hai... kisi aur ke khoon ko apnana aapke liye bhi mumkin nahin... shayad isiliye aapne Nanu ko bhi nahin bataya jinse aap har baat share karte the..."

"mein intzaar karti rahi aur ummid thi ki aaj shayad aap hamare beech ki har duri mita kar mujhe mere ateet ke saath apna lenge, lekin mein galat thi... lekin mein aapko dosh bhi nahin de sakti... aapki bhi kuchh majbooriyaan hai... iss khabar se aapke naam par, Maheshwari Industries par bohot sawaal uth sakte hai jinse aapki reputation par sawaal uthenge... Nanu ko bohot ummide hai aapse ki aap kabhi aisa kuchh nahin karenge jisase unka naam kharaab ho, apne pita ki tarah... unhone bhi ek dusre bachche ko apnane ke liye apne khoon se munh phera tha aur Nanu ne unse saare rishtey tod diye the..."

"mein kabhi nahin chahungi ki meri wajah se aapke aur Nanu ke rishtey mein daraar aaye ya iss khandaan ka naam uchhala jaaye... koi aapse sawaal kare yeh mujhe bhi ganwara nahin hoga...

Aapke pyaar par shaq nahin lekin ab meri wajah se aapko yeh sab sehna pade aisa mein nahin hone dungi... shayad hamari kismat mein hi juda hona likha hai... Nanu ka bharosa ki mein iss ghar par kabhi koi aanch nahin aane dungi mein kaise tod sakti hoon... agar mera yahaan se chala jaan saari mushkilon ka jawaab hai toh yahi sahi... mein bohot swarthi hoon kyunki mein aapke pyaar ke badle apne bachche ki qurbaani nahin de sakungi..." her hand reached out and touched the base of her stomach...

Caressing softly her hand on her stomach she bent slightly wiping her tears smilingly, "baby koi aur aapka saath de ya na de, aapki Mumma aapka saath kabhi nahin chhodengi... galti mujhse huyi jo mein apne pyaar mein itna bahak gayi ki apni asliyat bhool gayi thi... kaise bhool gayi ki aapka Sameerji se koi rishta nahin, na khoon ka na dil ka... kaise maine socha bhi ki bina kisi rishtey ke voh aapki jimmedari uthayenge... unhone kabhi mujhse koi wada nahin kiya... bina kisi shart ke meri khushi ke liye itna sab kiya... mujhe kisi se koi shikayat nahin lekin ab shayad mera yahaan se chala jaana hi theek hoga..."

She stood from the floor wiping her tears and walked towards the closet... opening wardrobe she pulled out her old bag and stuffed back her old clothes which she brings with her when she came here after her marriage... as she started to pack, she realized that she did not have anything to pack... before she came here, nothing belonged to her where she spent her 21 years... after she came here, Sameer gave her most of his possessions... it suddenly dawned on her that her life was like a dream... she did not have anything which she called her own... except her child...

Giving a mocking smile to her wardrobe which is filled by Sameer with mostly branded clothes and accessories, she felt it more ridiculous... she doesn't want to take anything which belongs to Sameer or given by him... except few memories which will be with her till end of her life... she picked up few things keeping it in her small bag...

Giving a last glimpse to her room where she stayed with him from last few months, she went out closing the door behind... avoiding anyone's gaze on her she took the stairs and stepped down... the moment she came out from house, unwillingly she moved towards back side of the house...

Reaching the place which always give her solace and strength to handle the difficulties of her life, she sits in front of idol... she lit diya in front of God and folded her hand closing her eyes... she prayed as badly needed their blessings to earn courage to move ahead in her life leaving her loved ones... from last few weeks her life was in peace with support and love from Sameer and she had stopped thinking of going away from him for any reason... but with this sudden move in their life makes her shattered but she needs to remain strong for her unborn child... she can't get weak...

She doesn't know where she can go as she has no other place to live in this whole world... she doesn't have her parents or any relative who can support her at this time... even in this condition she cannot go to Preeti as doesn't want her relation to spoil with Pandit... Preeti was already going through a tough phase and struggling alone... she needs Pandit and Sameer's support to sustain and Naina being with her can disturb her life and her happiness as well...

Naina brings out the letter she had written for Sameer and placed in the pooja thaali... she knew after finding her missing from home, Sameer will surely come to this place... unwillingly she took this stand to leave him but has no complaints for him... he has given her the best moments of her life... he loved her, and she has no doubts on this...

How can she blame him for loving her unconditionally... she can't hate him for anything... however she has no courage to sacrifice her child to get his love either...

Naina doesn't want Sameer to get worried for her and search her anywhere... since she was doing it all willingly, it's her responsibility to inform him before leaving... but she doesn't want to get weak in front of him... she knew with his one request and pleading eyes she might get weak in her resolution... and the best choice is to leave without meeting him...

She stood with a contented smile on her face thinking about Sameer and his love, "iss ghar ne mujhe jo diya hai, aansu bahakar mein uska apmaan nahin karungi... hamara milna jaise hamari kismat thi vaise hi hamara bichhadana bhi hamari taqdeer hai... teen mahine pehle iss ghar mein aane wali darri sahmi masoom ya yun kahoon emotional bewkoof ladki ko Sameerji ke saath aur unke ankahe pyaar ne bohot himmat di hai... aaj mein kisi bhi mushkil ka saamna akele kar sakti hoon aur mujh mein yeh himmat, yeh vishwas Sameerji ke pyaar se mila hai... shayad aane wali zindagi aasaan nahin hogi lekin mein iss bachche ke bhavishya ke liye sab sah lungi... bas gam rahega toh sirf itna ki Sameerji ka aur mera saath bohot kam waqt ke liye naseeb hua... kaash kuchh pal aur unke saath bita paati lekin agar maine yeh kadam aaj nahin uthaya toh shayad kabhi nahin le paaungi.."

"Jaanti hoon aaj ka function aapne sabko meri pehchaan batane ke liye rakha hai... lekin iss rishtey ki umra sirf yahin tak hai... jis tarah aaj tak hamara rishta andhere mein raha aage bhi vaisa hi rahe toh achchha hai... hum saath nahin rah sakte aur mein duniya ke saamne aapko sharminda nahin karna chahti..." with heavy heart she blinked her eyes hard to control the emotions flown out at this moment... she has to remain strong to handle the challenges in her life ahead... she has no regrets and complaints from anyone... whatever has happened was destined to be...

Hiding from all guards and servants who were extremely busy in doing the preparation she came out from the mansion... before it got vanished from her sight, she turned last time glancing the place which was her own home... where she got so many relations and love of her life... restoring all her good memories she walked away quickly before anyone notice her...

Being alone in entire world she was totally clueless what to do next, where to go... she has taken this decision in so much hurry then forget to decide anything in advance... she keep walking on road aimlessly without any idea where to go now... she wants to go far away from this place as knowing Sameer's ability, it will not take much time for him to find her...

Finding no other way she decided to take first available train or bus towards any destination without giving much thoughts... though she has very less money and time she hurriedly tried to stop auto to reach nearest railway station... in a rush to stop vehicle, she tried to cross the road absent mindedly but bumped into a taxi and in next second she was lying on the road getting some small scratches on her hand... before she regained her senses, she saw the person sitting in cab came out to help her out...

Before even she lifted her face to see the person standing in front of her, she heard quiet familiar panic voice, "Naina... tum... tum yahaan kaise... are you okay...?"

She lifted her face and shocked to see the person... she muttered slowly, "Arjun bhaiya..." she looked the next person coming out from cab bends to help her to stand on her feet was Shefali... at that moment she feels excited to see them both in front of her but in next second her smile vanished knowing how will she face them now... she cannot tell them the truth and doesn't want even to hid anything...

Hiding her nervousness, she politely greets them, "Arjun bhaiya, Shefali Bhabhi, aap donon yahaan kaise... achanak..." she was totally clueless that to give her surprise Sameer himself invited them for today's function...

Arjun smiled caressing her head, "tumhein surprise dene ke liye Sameer ne hi humein aaj ki party mein invite kiya hai, tumhare maayke ki taraf se... usne mana kiya tha isliye humne tumhein nahin bataya... lekin yeh surprise tumhein waqt se pehle hi pata chal gaya... lekin koi nahin, ab jaldi chalo party ka time bhi ho raha hai..."

He laughed slowly teasing her, "tum ladkiyon ki shopping bhi last minute tak khatam nahin hoti na..." he assumed her to be alone here at this time must be for some last minutes preparation for party...

Shefali seeing scratches in her hand asked worriedly, "yeh sab chhodo aur pehle ghar chalo... dekho kitni chot aayi hai... Sameer ne dekh liya toh uski toh jaan hi nikal jayegi..."

Naina's eyes brimmed hearing his name... she knew even a single scratch on her can easily makes him mad... she feels shiver in her spine feeling his pain finding her missing from home... she was sure by this time he must have found her absence from home and must be searching her everywhere... she is still only few meters away from Maheshwari mansion and it will not take much time for guards to find her if she stays more time on road...

Her trance broke seeing Arjun and Shefali taking her to sit inside cab... she stops jerking their hand softly stepped back... after coming to this stage she cannot go back and sacrifice her child...

Arjun halt seeing her standing adamantly to move, "what happened Naina... ab yeh shopping ki zid chhodo aur ghar chalo... dekho kitni chot bhi aayi hai... kuchh jaruri hoga toh kisi servant se kah kar mangwa lena... okay..." he looked around to found her car as very well aware that in any circumstances Sameer will never allow her to go alone, "arey tumhari car ya driver nahin hai saath mein... ruko mein dekhta hoon..." he looked around but didn't find anyone there... Naina remained silent as doesn't know how to answer them...

Shefali seeing Naina's weird behavior and adamancy to not sitting with them in cab keep her hand on Arjun's arm to stop... her gaze turned pointed towards a small bag lying near Naina's feet...

Lifting Naina's face she asked, "Naina... sab theek hai na... tum yahaan akele... iss tarah... Sameer se ladaai huyi hai kya... aur yeh bag... tum kahin ja rahi thi kya... lekin aaj toh Sameer ne tumhare liye sirf itani badi party rakhi hai..." she sensed something extremely wrong with her looks and tried to make her speak...

Naina lifted her eyes looked at her nodded her head slowly... her face was extremely pale and dull with moist eyes ready to burst at any time...

Arjun still not getting the matter asked, "kya matlab iss waqt baahar jaana hai... baad mein chali jaana lekin abhi toh ghar chalo... Sameer ktina pareshaan ho raha hoga na..."

Shefali stops him again, "Arjun tum samajh nahin rahe ho... Naina kahin aur nahin balki Sameer se dur ja rahi thi..." turning her gaze back to Naina she asked, "maine sahi kaha na... tum ghar chhod kar aayi ho na..."

Shock was understatement for Arjun as he keeps looking both the girls one by one... few days back only he saw the couple emersed in their love and never wanted to be away from each other for a moment... he knew how Sameer has planned such a big day for Naina and invited them also... he wants only her happiness than what happened suddenly that Naina has taken such a drastic step of leaving him...

Shefali jerked her hand slowly asking again, "Naina mein kuchh puchh rahi hoon... tum Sameer ko chhod kar ja rahi ho na..." she asked sternly seeing her not responding to any of them

Naina nodded slowly lowering her eyes as unable to face their questions any more... before Arjun asked more, Shefali stops him, "Arjun humein hotel vaapas chalna hoga... hum yahaan khade hokar baat nahin kar sakte..."

Arjun nodded opening the cab door to let the girls sit but Naina didn't move from her place... seeing her not moving Shefali caressed her head lovingly, "mujhe nahin pata ki kya baat huyi hai lekin vishwas rakho hum tumhari marzi ke khilaaf kuchh nahin karenge... tumhari bandage jaruri hai abhi... hum baaki baatein hotel mein karenge..."

Naina was still in doubts whether she can take favors from them as they both are also connected to Sameer... what if they call him telling her whereabout... it took her lot of courage to take this step and will surely not able to think ahead if Sameer questioned her in front... she might get weak in her firmness...

Arjun assured her, "don't worry jab tak tum comfortable nahin ho hum Sameer ko kuchh nahin batayenge... okay... tumne mujhe bhai mana hai toh itna vishwas toh kar hi sakti ho na..." he knew something worst must have happened between the couple but feel like to support her in any circumstances... the matter can be resolved with cool mind only and seeing Naina's adamancy he has left with no choice but to promise her that he will not contact Sameer until she agreed...

Seeing no other chance and their supportive attitude, Naina cannot deny them any more... all sits back in cab and headed back to their hotel where Shefali and Arjun was staying... they reached Delhi a day before only, for his official work before leaving for Singapore for his project but since they all planned to give Naina surprise, they decided to stay in hotel and reach in party just on time...

Reaching hotel room, Shefali called the reception to send a first aid box... since the wounds were not very deep, after cleaning it properly she wrapped a bandage around her arm... Arjun called room service to order tea and snacks for them seeing Naina extremely exhausted and tired...

Shefali puling her softly in her arms caressed her back, "Naina, mein jaanti hoon tum itni immature nahin ho jo kisi chhoti si ladaai par ghar chhod do... lekin humne dekha hai Sameer tumse kitna pyaar karta hai aur tum bhi... toh achanak aisa kya ho gaya ki tumne yeh step le liya..." after making her comfortable she raised her concerns again as matter seems to be extremely serious...

Arjun too tried to comfort her, "dekh Naina maine kaha na ki mein tujhe apni behen manta hoon... toh tu jo chaahe mujhse kah sakti hai... tu jaanti hai Sameer ke saath mera bachpan beeta hai aur usne mujhe bada bhai maana hai... mujhe poora yakeen hai voh aisa kuchh nahin kar sakta jisase tujhe takleef ho, lekin phir bhi agar koi baat hai toh tu humse bol... hum baat karenge usase..."

Shefali too said, "Naina husband wife ke beech mein toh kaha suni hoti hi rahti hai lekin uske liye ghar nahin chhoda jaata... tujhe aur Sameer ko ek dusre par aur apne pyaar par vishwas hona chahiya... maana tumhari shaadi ko jyaada waqt nahin hua lekin tumhari bonding dekhi hai humne..."

They both tried a lot to comfort her so that she can share her problem with them... they were unable to figure out any reason between the lovely couple to get separated suddenly...

"I am pregnant" Naina said slowly lowering her head... she indeed except a terrific expression from them as they met few days back only and was not aware of her pregnancy...

Shefali screamed in excitement, "wow... yeh toh good news hai... I am so happy for you..." she pulled her in a tight hug oblivious of her dull expressions...

Arjun caressing her head blessed her, "I am really happy for both of you... I know tumhari shaadi abhi huyi hai so you two might be not ready for this but it's okay..."

Shefali still finding her looking down with tensed expressions asked, "is this the reason you left your home... seems Sameer is not ready for this responsibility till now... par tum donon mature ho, baat karke sort out kyun nahin kiya..." she keeps asking her to give advice to handle this matter calmly rather leaving home... they both never except such immature behavior from either of them...

Even after seeing Naina not breaking her silence Arjun stood pulling out his phone from his pocket getting slightly annoyed, "mein abhi Sameer se baat karta hoon... itna samajhdaar hokar voh kaise tujhe iss haal mein akela chhod sakta hai... jis waqt usey tujhe sabse jyaada support karna chahiye tha, bachchon ki tarah behave kar rahe ho tum donon... yeh bhi koi baat hoti hai ladaai karne ki... iss khushkhabri par toh celebration hona chahiye tha..."

Naina hurriedly holds his hand getting panic, "please aap Sameer se kuchh mat kahiye... unki koi galti nahin... yeh sab meri wajah se hua hai... unhone toh hamesha mujhe support kiya lekin mein hi unke laayak nahin hoon..." she keeps blabbering, requesting him to not to call Sameer...

Shefali not getting any sense of her words asked suddenly, "Naina, sach bata kya baat hai... I am sure baat kuchh aur hai... I mean it makes no sense to fight on this matter... it's such a wonderful feeling to become parents... I am sure that you and Sameer together can handle this responsibility very well..."

Naina holding her breathe finally revealed the truth, "I am pregnant... for more than three months now..."

Arjun and Shefali remain shocked hearing her... they knew she got married to Sameer only three months back which means she was pregnant before that... is this the reason why they are still not so close to each other... they observed earlier the hesitation between the couple but assume it to their shyness as they were recently got married...

Few minutes passed, Shefali breaking the silence asked, "Sameer ko pata hai?"

Naina nodded her head looking down... Arjun asked, "is this the reason for differences between you... isiliye tum donon aksar pareshaan dikhte the... you guys don't love each other... iska matlab humne jo bhi aashram mein dekha aur samjha sab galat tha... ya tum donon koi naatak kar rahe the sabko bewkoof banane ka... right?" he was extremely upset and not ready to believe that how could they make everyone fool showing their fake love...

Naina shook her head instantly, "aisa nahin hai bhai... hum donon sach mein ek dusre se bohot pyaar karte hai... infact, mujhe kabhi ummid bhi nahin thi ki sach pata hone ke baad bhi Sameerji kabhi mujhse itna pyaar karenge lekin unhone hamesha mera saath diya, mujhe sambhala, meri har jarurat ka khud se bhi jyaada khyaal rakha... unke pyaar par mujhe kabhi koi shaq nahin... lekin shayad yeh pyaar meri kismat mein hi nahin likha... unka aur mera saath bas yahin tak tha..."

Taking a deep breath she said, "mein aapko isase jyaada kuchh nahin bata sakti lekin itna jaroor kahungi ki maine kabhi Sameerji ko koi dhokha nahin diya... maine apni shaadi aur apna rishta poori sachchai aur imaandaari se nibhaya hai.... hum donon ne bina kisi dawaab ya majboori ke ek dusre se poore dil se pyaar kiya hai aur marte dam tak mein sirf aur sirf Sameerji se pyaar karungi... unki jagah mere dil aur zindagi mein kabhi koi nahin le sakta... lekin yeh bhi sach hai ki mein kabhi ab unke paas vaapas nahin jaa sakungi... mera unse aur unki zindagi se dur chale jaana hi unke liye sahi rahega... unki aane wali zindagi par mein apni parchhayi bhi padne nahin de sakti..."

Saying this she wiped her tears smiling faintly and moved towards door when Shefali stops calling her from back, "Naina agar pyaar sachcha hai toh phir yeh doori kyun... aisa bhi kya ho gaya ki tu ne itna bada fasila le liya Sameer se dur jaane ka... agar koi baat hai toh tum donon suljha sakte ho... agar tu kahegi toh hum chalte hai Sameer ke paas tere saath... I am sure voh hamari baat jaroor samjhega, kyunki tu hi kah rahi hai na ki tum donon ka pyaar sachcha hai..."

Naina shook her head smiling faintly, "nahin Shefali bhabhi, aapne meri baat suni, samjhi, mere liye utna hi kaafi hai... yakeen maaniye inn sab mein Sameerji ki koi galti nahin, balki unse jyaada sachcha aur saaf dil ka insaan toh maine apni zindagi mein nahin dekha... mujhe sach mein unse koi shikayat nahin lekin mera faisla ab kabhi nahin badlega... mujhe Sameerji aur aap sabse dur jaana hai... ho sake toh mujhe maaf kar dijiyega..."

Keeping Arjun's hand on her head she said adamantly, "aapko meri kasam aap mujhe Sameer ke paas jaane ke liye ya unhein mere baare mein kuchh nahin batayenge... maine bohot mushkil se yeh faisla hum donon ki bhalaai ke liye liya hai... unse milungi toh mein kamjor pad jaaungi... agar aapne sachche dil se mujhe behen maana hai toh aapko mujhse wada karna hi padega..." seeing their attempts to unite them back Naina left with no chance to bind them giving her swear...

Arjun and Shefali got speechless with teary eyes... few days back they had seen the blooming love between the couple... they came to meet them and to participate in their happiness but here they are now witnessing their separation, without even knowing the complete reason...

Before she steps ahead Arjun hold her arm turning to his side, "kya matlab chali jaaungi... maine kaha tha na ki tu meri behen hai aur jab bhi tujhe jarurat hogi mein tera saath dunga... agar tu nahin batana chahti toh hum nahin puchhenge ki tere sab chhod kar jaane ki wajah kya hai... lekin ab se tu mere saath rahegi... mein waada karta hoon teri kasam kha kar ki jab tak tu nahin chahegi mein Sameer se ya kisi aur se tere baare mein baat nahin karunga... kisi ko pata nahin chalega ki tu mere saath, mere paas hai..."

Naina smiled softly removing his grip from her arm, "aapka itna kehna hi mere liye kaafi hai bhaiya... lekin mein aapke saath nahin rah sakti... aaj nahin toh kal Sameerji ko pata chal hi jayega ki mein aapke saath hoon aur mein ab inn sab baaton se dur jaana chahti hoon... ek aisi jagah jahaan koi mere ateet ke baare mein na jaanta ho, na koi sawaal mera pichha kare... meri zindagi ka ab ek hi maksad hai... iss bachche ko iss duniya mein laana aur iski achchhi parvarish karna... jo dukh takleef maine apne bachpan mein sahe hai voh mein iski kismat mein nahin aane dungi..." her eyes brimmed thinking how much pain she had borne from her fake parents just because she was not her own blood... she herself has spent her entire life being an adoptive child, thus Beena and Naresh had never gave her parental love and care... she never wanted her own child to bear the same fate after being adopted by some unknown family...

Arjun holds her back again said firmly, "maine kaha na tu kahin nahin jayegi... agar tujhe darr hai ki mein Sameer ko bata dunga toh mein teri kasam kha ke kehta hoon ki kisi ko nahin pata chalega ki tu kahaan hai... aaj se tu sirf apne bhai ke ghar mein rahegi... waada..."

Shefali keeping her hand on her shoulder supports, "Arjun sahi kah rahe hai Naina... humein pata hai tera iss duniya mein koi aur nahin aur abhi tujh par iss bachche ki jimmedari bhi hai... abhi ke liye tera hamare saath rehna hi theek hoga... shayad kuchh din baad tere aur Sameer ke beech sab theek ho jaaye..." she tried to handle the situation for the time being seeing her reluctance to go back to Sameer... seeing her hesitancy she didn't feel like to force her for anything...

Seeing Naina still hesitating to accept, Arjun re-assured her, "dekh hum aaj raat ki flight se Singapore ja rahe hai teen saal ke liye... mein tera hamare saath jaane ka intjaam kar leta hoon... baaki baatein aaraam se soch samajh kar phir dekhenge ki aage kya karna hai..." though he never wanted them to get separate but seeing her vulnerable condition he doesn't feel like to leave her alone... he knew if he persists her further, she might run away from them also...

Leaving her alone in room for resting some time, Arjun came out from room feeling devasted... he loves Sameer and respect Nanu a lot but this time helping Naina seems like betraying them... suddenly feeling a soft hand on his shoulder he turned to see Shefali standing close to him...

Shefali sitting next to him said, "Naina so gayi hai... shayad itna sab jo ho gaya achanak usase bohot pareshaan hai aur iss haal mein uske liye itna stress theek nahin... lekin tumhein nahin lagta yeh sab theek nahin hai... I mean Nanu aur Sameer kya sochenge ki humne Naina ko unhein bina bataye support kiya... tum jaante ho Sameer Naina se kitna pyaar karta hai aur humein toh poori baat bhi nahin pata..."

Arjun deeply lost in his own thought take a deep sigh, "tumhein maloom hai na Shefali ki maine jab se hosh sambhala hai, sirf ek Nanu hi the jinhone mujhe na sirf apnaya, mere sar par ek chhat di, mujhe sadako par bhatkne se bachaya, meri zindagi ko ek disha di... aaj mein jo bhi hoon sirf aur sirf unki wajah se hoon aur unka yeh ehsaan mujh par zindagi bhar rahega..."

Wiping the lone tear from his eyes recalling his lovely childhood days with Sameer he smiled, "phir mein Sameer se mila aur usne ek chhote bhai ke roop mein mujhe ek pariwaar ka ehsaas dilaya... thodi hi sahi lekin inn rishton ke ehsaas ke sahare maine zindagi se ladna sikha aur aaj iss mukaam par hoon ki mujhe tum mili aur ab hamare pariwaar mein ek nanhi si jaan bhi aane wali hai... lekin Nanu aur Sameer ka ehsaan mein kabhi nahin chuka sakta..."

"aaj Naina ko unse dur jaate dekh mujhe ehsaas ho raha hai uske bina unn donon par kya gujaregi aur kahin na kahin mein bhi unke dukh ka bhagidaar banunga, lekin socho agar mein Naina ko kasam dekar nahin rokta toh voh hum donon se bhi dur chali jaati... Pandit na bataya tha ki kuchh hi dinon pehle Naina kis trauma se gujari hai... usey phir se zindagi mein vaapas laane ke liye Sameer ne kitni mehanat ki hai aur aaj uske yeh haalaat shaayd aasani se usey usi haal mein vaapas bhej sakte hai..."

Shefali still confused, "lekin agar Sameer aur Nanu tumse bhi naraaz ho gaye itni badi baat chhupane ke liye toh tum apni zindagi ke yeh anmol rishtey bhi kho doge... mujhe maloom hai tum unn donon ki narazagi nahin sah paaoge..." she knew how much these two persons are meant in his life...

Arjun replied, "Sameer se sach chhupa kar mein shayad usey dhokha de raha hoon lekin Naina hamesha se mere paas Sameer aur Nanu ki amaanat ki tarah rahegi jiski mein poore dil se hifazat karunga... tumne dekha hai Naina, Sameer aur Nanu ke liye kya maayne rakhti hai... agar aaj usey kuchh bhi ho gaya toh mein unn donon se najarein nahin mila paaunga... iss naajuk waqt par unn donon ko saath laane se jyaada jaruri mujhe Naina ko support karna sahi lag raha hai... shayad Naina ki hifazat kar ke mein ek maayne mein Nanu aur Sameer ke ehsaano ka karza chuaka sakoon... aur mujhe poora yakeen hai ki Naina bhi jyaada din apne decision par nahin tik payegi aur Sameer ke paas vaapas chali jayegi... shayad usey thoda waqt chahiye sab sort out karne ke liye... mein usey sirf Sameer se thoda dur le jaa raha hoon taaki voh thande dimaag se soch samajh kar faisla le paaye..."

Shefali supporting his decision, "mujhe bhi lagta hai ki inn halation mein yahi sahi decision hoga... vaise bhi Naina bohot emotional ladki hai aur pregnancy ke iss daur mein shayad aur bhi mushkil hoga uske liye kuchh theek se samajhna... uski haalat bhi toh mere jaisi hi hai... aur hum sabne dekha hai unn donon ke beech ka pyaar toh mujhe nahin lagta Naina jyaada der tak Sameer se dur rah payegi... abhi ke liye shayad yeh thodi duriyaan aane waale bhavishya mein unke beech aur najdeekiyaan le aaye..."

For the time being it seems a better option for her to stay away from Sameer... they really don't know the whole story and do not want to take any hasty decision... the distance for few days might heal her pain and she will be able to rethink on her decision... they heard from Nanu and Pandit that recently she had gone through an emotional stress and was in coma for few days... now after the news of her being pregnant, they don't want to pressurize her so much as her health can be affected...

Arjun after convincing Shefali on his decision, immediately contact his office requesting them to arrange Naina's visa and requested them to complete other formalities on priority as a special support... soon in few hours her ticket was received, and they all headed towards Airport leaving the place and their beloved ones behind...

After getting through the security check, Naina turned over her shoulder to stare at the city she is leaving behind... she bid farewell to everyone in Delhi City quietly... last but not least she whispered her farewell to Sameer...

"I hope that we'll never meet again" she thought wiping a lone tear from corner of her eyes... she was going to start a new life without his love...

Hi friends,

Here's we shared half part of Naina's past story about her sudden decision of leaving Sameer. Not fully justified but being a human and in most critical and sensitive phase of her life, she took hasty decision. Will update further in next update...

In last update,  I had seen so many positive and negative comments from my readers who all are like friends to me. I really appreciate all your feedback but feels slightly dishearten because just not being updating daily, my readers are losing their interest😔😞

At present, I am working on a very critical project. Coming time will gets more hectic but I promised for weekly update which I will surely fulfill. Hope you will understand my situation and support me considering me also as your friend😊

Regarding the pace and their past hidden truth's will surely unfold all the secrets in coming part. Please bear a little more with me 😊🙏💗

Thanks once again to all for being with me in this strange and difficult journey of Samaina's love. Like always said, "Thecourses of true love never did run smooth"  💕

See You all next week, till then stay safe 😊💗
