Naina woke up early morning ... soon she gets ready and went out... as per her daily routine, she went to mandir and lit diya... after chatting with Chinni for quite a while she left for office without meeting with anyone in house... actually avoiding all of them...

For Sameer, she was nothing but just a gold digger... he starts behaving rudely and insulting her for no reason again...

For Karthik, though he spoke politely with her but knowing his differences with Sameer, she doesn't want to create more problems for her...

For Vishakha, since after their last night discussion, she doesn't want to face her anymore...

Reaching office, she starts her work avoiding all other thoughts coming in her mind... she is always be a workaholic person and she love her work, whatever it may be... at least no one can question on her hard-work and sincerity in this...

Her attention diverts seeing Sameer coming out from elevator with Pandit while talking with someone on phone... he ignored her presence like she is not even exist and went inside his cabin... taking a deep breathe she bring his coffee and went to his cabin... she kept the coffee mug on table and left getting no response from him, as expected...

Whole day passed avoiding each other... and Pandit being mediator passing messages and files for them... seeing Sameer taking care of her during her illness, he was expecting their relation to get smooth but now its again same as earlier... no one was taking initiative to talk or interact with each other...

By afternoon, Naina got the call from Preeti to join at lunch which she accepted whole heartedly... at Canteen, they bring their lunch and sit at their usual corner table... spending time with Preeti is getting the most enjoyable time for her now... forgetting all her pains and miseries...

Naina starts liking her carefree and bubbly nature... she is not like others who always busy in gossiping and finding mistake in others... she loves to spend time with her... although most of the time its only Preeti who speak but at least it's not giving her any tension... so better than others...

They both interrupted with continuous rings in Naina's phone, but she was avoiding it... Preeti took her phone and saw at screen, "yaar kisi Kamya ka phone hai... tu pick kyun nahin karti... dekh kitne phone aa rahe hai... lagta hai desperately tujhse baat karna chahti hai..."

Naina turned her phone in silent and said with a smile, "I know... she is my childhood friend... but today I am really in a big mess and not in mood to talk with any one... don't worry I will talk to her later..."

Naina was desperately needed some time to fix this new problem and doesn't want Kamya to suffer in between... trying to safeguard her from all mess...

Preeti smiled naughtily seeing her screen, "vaise bura mat manana... tujhe dekh kar lagta nahin ki yeh fashion ki putali teri dost hai... are you sure tu iske saath bachpan se hai... you know bachpan mein suna tha ki opposite attracts par tumhare case mein dekh bhi liya... I mean tu shakal se jitni seedhi saadi, masoom lagti hai yeh utani hi chaalak lomdi..." she laughed making fun of Kamya...

Naina hit slightly on her arm, "kuchh bhi haan... tu jaanti nahin meri Kamya ko... voh dikhne mein thodi alag hai mujhse par meri jaan basti hai us mein... aur uski mujh mein... maana hum donon ke status mein bohot farq hai par usne kabhi mujhe neecha nahin dikhaya... usey jara bhi ghamand nahin apne paiso ka... voh hamesha se meri sabse badi strength rahi hai... mere har sukh dukh mein usne mera saath diya hai..."

Preeti laughed stopping her, "arey baba... ab bas bhi kar... tu ne toh poora Kamya paath hi suna diya... par sach kahun, mujhe jaisa laga maine vaisa kah diya... well, she is your friend and until she didn't hurt you it's absolutely fine with me... don't mind but I am quiet possessive about my close ones, aur unko koi takleef de toh I know kaise akal theekane lagani hai..." she said with a serious threatening face...

Naina looked at her with wide eyes shockingly on her daring statement but soon both burst into laughter... controlling her laughter she said folding her hand in front of her, "jee meri lady hanuman... tod liyo jiska munh todna hai... chal ab varna der ho gayi toh tere aur mere boss hamara munh tod denge..."

They both left for their seats when Naina's phone again rings... finally she picked up as she doesn't want her to disturb.... Kamya insist her to meet after office hours at same café which she agreed...

Pandit came to her desk with again so many files and put it on her table, "Ms Agarwal, you have to prepare a detailed analysis report and presentation from all these files... he needs to see it at earliest... so please don't delay..." she looked at the bundle and smiled sarcastically, "fine... no issues but when is the meeting..."

Pandit casually replied, "I think it's tomorrow morning..." and left leaving her engrossed in working... although he consider her as his sister but remain calling her Ms Agarwal in office... he feels bad for seeing her working so much when she is not in good health but has no choice as can't raise his voice against Sameer... he knew that she is his dream girl and Sameer loved her beyond any limits, but still lots of matters to be settled between them before getting close to each other...

Pandit knowing Sameer's nature knew until he gets sure that Naina also loves him deeply, he will not give chance to this relation at all.... Sameer only needs her to be happy even if they must parted away... even Pandit doesn't want to interfere in their relation... let them free to take their own decisions, how they want to take their relation ahead... but inside he prays for them to be together as early as possible before it gets too late to regret...

Seeing time to leave office, Naina realized Kamya must be waiting for her but lots of work was still pending to complete for tomorrow's meeting... she thought, "usase mil kar jaldi vaapas aa jaaungi... aaj yeh complete karke hi jaaungi varna phir se baatein sunayenge..." she knew Sameer has given loads of work intentionally to prove her useless... but she was also adamant to ruin his plan...

In evening, Sameer came out seeing her missing from her desk... realized she must be off for the day, he felt relieved and left with Pandit for home... though he himself send the files to her but doesn't want her to ignore her health and take too much of workload... last day also she stays back late in office to complete pending work...

Naina reached at café seeing Kamya waiting for her... they both hugged each other when Kamya asked, "tu naraaj hai na mujhse..." her eyes were wet ready to burst at any time...

Naina shook her head saying, "paagal hai kya... tujhse kyun naraaz houngi mein... bas thodi pareshaan thi, aur kuchh nahin... office mein bhi bohot kaam tha isliye baat nahin kar paayi jyaada..." she purposely hid her discussion with Vishakha about Kamya's alliance...

Kamya said holding her hand, "look Naina, mujhe pata hai you and Sameer are not in good terms with each other... and I know the reason also, but I am just trying to be friendly with him so that you can at least stay peacefully for next few months at his house... I know he doesn't love you but at least he can treat you well... you are pregnant and it's not good for you and child if he behaves rudely and harshly with you... hope you understand... I am doing all this for you... just trying to make things easier for you..."

Naina firmly hold her hand in hers, "I know Kamya... don't ever think that I have doubt on you... bas mein nahin chahati ki meri wajah se tujh par koi pareshaani aaye... tujhe in sab mein nahin involve karna chahti mein... tu nahin jaanti vahaan sab kitne ajeeb hai... kaun kab kya kehta hai, kya sochta hai, pata hi nahin chalta... sab bohot bohot uljha hua hai... aur vaise bhi bas kuchh mahino ki baat hai toh kyun pareshaan hona... mein kaat lungi jaise bhi kar ke... par tu inn sab se dur rah please, mein nahin chahti tu kisi musibat mein pade..." she tried hard to make her understand to be away from Maheshwari clan...

Kamya said smilingly, "tu meri chinta mat kar aur bas apna dhyaan rakh... inn bade gharon ke chonchale tu nahin samjhegi par mein jaanti hun inhein kaise handle karna hai.. baaki mein voh hospital ki mystery suljha dun toh sab theek ho jayega... bas ek baar pata chal jaaye toh teri life bhi set ho jayegi..."

Naina said sternly, "nahin Kamya, maine kaha na mujhe kuchh nahin janana aur na hi kisi se milna ab... mujhe koi farq nahin padta ab inn sab baaton se... bas yeh kuchh mahine beet jaaye phir mein iss bachche ko lekar yahaan se bohot dur chali jaaungi... koi nahin hoga jo mujhe jaanta hoga... ek anjaan jagah par ek nayi zindagi shuru karungi... tu bhi ab yeh sab chhod de aur apni zindagi par dhyaan de... jab se aayi hai mere liye chinta lekar baithi hai... teri apni life aur career bhi hai..." she said expecting to be a better future ahead for her and baby with no hurdles once she left from here...

Naina seeing time, stood to leave when Kamya insist her to have dinner as its already too late... quickly eating some food, Naina left for office to complete her pending job as doesn't want him to get any other chance to scold her...

Coming back to office, Naina starts her working.... she was all alone in office as till then all other staff already left at other floors also... she was busy in her work when a message beeped... she opened to see it and shocked seeing the name popped up "Sharad"

She opened and shocked to read his message, "Hi Naina, how are you" she didn't respond and keep the phone down... soon she heard so many beeps... one by one...

"I know you are angry with me... but at least we can talk on general terms..."

"Can we meet if you are free"

"at least you can give me one chance to explain... after all we were together for 6 months"

"I am waiting for your reply..."

She holds her head in her hand getting pissed off... she is already in a big mess and doesn't want more to added on... she deleted all the chats from her mobile without replying and blocked his number.... she turned off her mobile to avoid any disturbance and turned her focus back completely on her work...

It was late at night... Sameer reached home finding room empty... usually at this hour, she would have come and roaming around but today...

Sameer frowned slightly and looked at the single bed in the corner of the room... the quilt was neatly folded, and no one was there... he looked at the wall clock showing 10'o clock.... Is she again roaming out with her friend ignoring her health condition?

Pandit came in and inform to Sameer, "I checked... she has not yet come home... I thought she must be back now... has she called you...?" 

Sameer shook his head slowly and tried to get his focus back on handling some urgent office work... but not able to concentrate on anything...

Sameer was getting impatient as there was no news of her till late night... Pandit tried to find her location but her mobile was also switched off... getting worried Pandit was calling guards to go out and find her but Sameer stops him...

Pandit got confused seeing Sameer himself got ready for going out to search her... since last day he was behaving rudely with her and now was again worried about her... 

Pandit looked at Sameer confusingly when he asked seeing him still standing there, "are you coming with me or should I go alone..."

Pandit smirked seeing him so anxious about her and readily agreed to go out and search for her... 

Sameer frowned seeing him smiling asked sarcastically, "you really consider her your sister... is this how you are taking care of her... useless brother... huh..."

Pandit holding his laughter seeing his grumpy face replied back, "I can take care of my sister very well but not your wife... it's your responsibility... Careless Maheshwari... huh..." he taunts him back getting a deathly glare from him...

The moment they came out from elevator, they heard Karthik's driver talking with one of the servants saying, "Karthik sir is out for tonight at his friends place... he will not be coming back tonight..."

He laughed saying further, "inn bade logon ka kabhi pata nahin chalta yaar.. hamesha unki car mein drive karta hun par aisi personal meetings mein jaane ke liye khud hi car chalaate hai... lagta hai kisi khaas ke saath hai aaj raat bhar... kya pata kaun kis se kya chhupa raha hai... bade gharon ke bade raaz..." they both laughed and keep talking ignoring others presence there...

Sameer stops listening this and turned back to his room without uttering any word... Pandit tried to stop and explain him to think twice but he didn't listen any of his suggestion... he left inside his room leaving him outside with a bad mood... Pandit thought to go out and search for her but he himself witnessed seeing her sitting in Karthik's car a day before... he too dropped his idea and left for his room feeling dishearten...

Naina worked till early morning hours... she looked outside from window and realized she was working whole night... to get some rest, she thought to make tea for herself to get refresh... the moment she got up from her seat her head spin... she sits back and after having a glass of water she stood and prepare tea for herself... the moment she had some sips, due to morning nausea, she run to washroom and throw out everything...

She came back to her seat after washing her face with cold water, getting little relieved... taking the small sips she stood near window looking outside...

A new day... new beginning... new light... but in her life... it's all dark... she was away from home, but no one was even concerned about her... no one checked where she is, as her existence doesn't matter for anyone...

She kept her hand on her tummy and smiled, "sirf tum mere apne ho... mera ansh... wada karo tum mera saath kabhi nahin chhodoge... shayad tumhare sawalo ke jawaab na de paaun par wada karti hun tumhein ek behatar zindagi dene ki poori koshish karungi... mere paas mera saath dene ke liye koi nahin par tumhare paas tumhari Maa jaroor hogi, jo tumhein sambhalegi, kabhi akela nahin padne degi..."

Taking a deep sigh she smiled mocking on herself, "kaisi zindagi hai na hum donon ki bhi... ek mein hoon jiske paas maa, baap, behen, pati aur ek ghar hote huye bhi kuchh nahin... sabne mujhe akela chhod diya hai... aur ek tum ho... mein yeh bhi nahin jaanti ki tum kiska ansh ho, yeh sab kaise hua... iss duniya mein aane se pehle hi tum akele ho gaye... par ab hum donon ek dusre ka saath kabhi nahin chhodenge... do adhuri zindagiyaan milkar ek bahrpur zindagi jiyenge jismein sirf khushiyaan hi khushiyaan hongi... mein tumpar koi aanch nahin aane dungi, yeh mera wada hai tumse... Kanhaji ki kasam..." she felt relieved and contented have a new life blooming inside her, giving a comfort that she has now someone in her life... she is not alone... not any more...

Coming back to her desk, she finished her pending work, giving final touch... soon after completing the presentation, she mailed it to Sameer for final check... getting exhausted and tired after working whole night, she keeps her head on the table and dozed off...

Sleep was far away from his eyes also... he spends whole night waiting for her... but she didn't come back, not even informed him her whereabout... her mobile was also off...

One corner of his heart denied, "nahin voh mere saath aisa nahin kar sakti... uski aankhon mein kitni masumiyat hai... aakhir voh meri dream girl hai, jisne bina kahe, bina mere paas aaye mujhe zindagi dobara jeene ki prerna di... voh dhokhebaaz nahin ho sakti... kabhi nahin..."

Whereas his mind rebuked, "tu ne galat kiya us par vishwas kar ke... voh bhi auron ki tarah hi nikali..."

His heart protest, "par kya suboot hai ki voh donon saath hai... ek driver ki baat par bharosa nahin kar sakta mein jab tak aankhon se na dekh lun... aur phir usne Naina ka naam toh nahin liya na... mujhe nahin pata Karthik apni personal life mein kya karta hai toh kaise shaq kar sakta hoon... par mein Naina ko jaanta hoon, mujhe us par poora vishwas hai... aakhir mera pehla aur aakhiri pyaar hai voh..."

His mind against, "tu usase pyaar karta hai par usey nahin pata... aur na hi voh tujhse pyaar karti... voh nafarat karti hai usne khud kaha tha aur phir divorce agreement par sign bhi kiya hai... yeh uski apni zindagi hai, voh jo chaahe kar sakti hai... you have no rights on her..."

His heart supports her, "haan par sign karne par maine khud majboor kiya tha usko... usne apni marzi se nahin kiya... agar pyaar nahin karti toh apni jaan par khel kar nahin bachaati mujhe... uski aankhon mein ek sachchai hai jisey koi jhutla nahin sakta... mein bhi nahin..."

His mind denied, "voh accident ek ittefaq tha... shayad sympathy chahati ho... yeh bhi uska dikhawa ho sakta hai... kitni ladkiyaan pahle bhi sirf paiso ke lalaach mein iss rishtey ke liye taiyaar thi, shayad Naina bhi unme se hi ek ho... vaise bhi usey jaana hai hai kuchh mahino mein tujhse dur... toh yeh apnapan, yeh bharosa kyun..."

His heart wins, "toh phir jaane de usey... kyun rok rakha hai 6 mahine ke liye bhi... tum bhi toh yahi chahte ho na ki voh chali jaaye, phir kyun baar baar uski jaan bachate ho... kyun uske liye raat bhar jaagte ho agar uski parwah hi nahin... kyun uesy hospital mein akela nahin chhod paaye.. kyun uske ek aansun par tumhari jaan nikalti hai... bina kahe uski har jarurat ka khayal rakha... business chhod kar uski dekhbhaal ki... agar jata nahin sakte toh dil mein chhupe pyaar ke koi mayane nahin..."

His mind defeat, "par mein chaah kar bhi usey voh saari khushiyaan nahin de sakta... uske saath kadam se kadam milakar nahin chal sakta... uski zindagi ki khushiyaan mere bojh tale dab jaayengi... koi bhi ladki kisi apahij se shaadi karke khush nahin rah sakti... uska haq hai jin khushiyon par voh usey milani hi chahiye... chaahe mujhse ya phir kisi aur se..."

His heart smiled, "haan toh yeh usey decide karne do... kehte hai na insaan ko sirf apna karam karna chahiye... phal vahi milega jo boya jayega... agar nafarat doge toh nafarat hi vaapas aayegi... pehle apna pyaar dikhaao, phir dekho.... uski aankhon mein saare jawaab tumhein khud hi mil jayenge... jise dream girl banaya tha, jiske sapne dekhe the, voh aaj kismat se saath hai... usey apna pyaar dikhaao baaki uski marzi..."

He tried to calm his inner turmoil, "uski aankhon mein hamesha se ek udaasi, akelapan dekha hai tu ne jo teri aankhon mein bhi hai... tum donon adhure ho, akele ko... shayad ek dusre ka saath tumhein poora kar de... kehte hai na kismat sirf ek baar dastak deti hai... par tujhe yeh dusra mauka mila hai usko apna banane ka... uske aur apne sapne poore karna ka... jaise uski ek jhalak se tu ne himmat kar ke poori duniya jeeti hai aaj ek baar phir himmat kar aur usey jeet le... shayad yeh saath tum donon ki adhurepan ko poora kar de..."

Pandit surprised to see Sameer already awaked, much before his daily routine... or might be he hasn't slept at all.... he was sitting in balcony at the place where she used to sleep in earlier days... he feels like to talk with him but seeing his gloomy face remain quiet... soon getting ready they left for office before their usual time skipping breakfast as he has no appetite to eat anything...

Security guard at office shocked to see him much before his routine time.... they were waiting for elevator when Pandit asked slowly to one of the guards, "has Ms Agarwal came...?" he looked him surprisingly and replied, "I don't know... I have not seen anyone going up since last night..." he was not aware of Naina being still in office as he resumed his night duty before she went upstairs...

Sameer glance them from corner of his eyes getting more aggravated... they took the elevator and reached their floor... the moment he opened the door of his cabin to go inside he turned his face towards her table and finds her sleeping on her desk, keeping her head on the files... looking extremely tired and weak...

Next update very soon...
