They were almost running in the corridor of hospital,  Naina stopped in between.. Rajveer saw this.

"Kya hua.. Ruk kyu gayi"

"Kaira... " He saw kaira outside the ward. "Mein nahi chahti aisi situation me koi hungama ho,  aap jaiye... Me baad me Lav se mil lungi" He noded.

He gave Kaira a dangerous look before entering in the ward,  for the first time in her life she felt scared of him... She quickly left the place.

@#@#@#@#@#@#@#@#@

"Mujhe..... Mom ne... Sab bata diya" She said in weak voice "sab kuch..... " Looking direct into his eyes "apke bare me....... Mere bare mein. " She was crying silently... Slowly went unconscious.

He dialed a number.. "Mujhe tumse abhi milna hai... Ghar par.... Akele" There was a rage in his eyes.

@#@#@#@#@#@#@#@

Shekhawat Mansion

She came inside her room.. Nervously,  saw his back turned to her "wo Rajveer... Lavanya ne jo kaha... Wo.. Wo aisa kuch nahi hai, wo to Bas meine aise hi gusse me bol dia.. Wo mujhe bhala bura kahe ja rahi thi to meine bas usko sabak sikhane ke liye aisa bola.... Wo sab sach nahi hai".

"Kya sach nahi hai" He turned to face her, his eyes red "ye ki Lavanya is not my Daughter, that she isn't my blood".

"Nahi aisa nahi hai, meine sirf Lavanya se ye sab jhut kaha tha gusse me" She added quickly.

"Or kitna niche giroh Kaira, Uss raat mein nashe mein zaroor tha.. Lekin itna bhi nahi ki.... Ye na jaan pau ki mere ass pass Kya ho raha hai...." I know that we never slept together". She was sweating hard.

"Rajveer tumhe ye sab kab... "

"Hamesha se.... Lavanya ke janam se pehle se.... Uss raat ke natak se pehle se..." She was shocked to recive this information "Tumhe kya laga mujhe kabhi kuch pata nahi chalega... Lavanya se pehle bhi you had two abortions, uske bad two more.... Lavanya ko you couldn't abort kyunki pehle hi bahot der ho gayi thi because you were already two months pregnant or pregnancy ko uss waqt terminate karna tumhare liye risky tha... Isiliye.... tumne apne karnamo ko chupane ke liye mere sath sone ka natak kiya ..and later pretended ki ye baccha was out come of that night which we spent in our drunken state".

Words were not coming out of her throat.. He knew all this but never said a word... Never confronted her why.. "Bhale hi hamare bich koi pati patni ka rishta shuruwat se na raha ho lekin meine hamesha apne pati hone ka farz nibhaya... Tumhaari security ka khayal rakhna meri zimmedaari thi..... " He said with difficulty "tumhe kya lagta hai kya mujhe kabhi pata nahi chalta tha.. Ki meri biwi kab or.... Kiski bahon mein hoti hai".

"kya hai ye rishta jo tumhare or mere bich hai.... Kyu Kaira, itni nafrat kyu... Kis liye? Just because meine tumse shaadi ke liye haan kar di.. To uska badla tum aise logi..  Janta hu tum shaadi ke liye ready nahi thi.. Mein bhi nahi tha... But tumhare Daadu chahte the ki hum shaadi kar le...it was his dying wish, kaise inkaar kar deta, mein tumhe kabhi jaane se nahi rokta Kaira kabhi bhi nahi, bas ek bar kehke to dekhti...ek dost hone ke nate meine expect kia tha ki tum mujhe samjhogi......." He was feeling defeated.

Kya tum wahi Kaira ho jisne Shashank ke sar par bina soche samjhe beer ki bottle de maari thi just because usne mujhe bas looser kaha tha" He gave a sadness filled smile. "We were best friends Kaira, bachpan se... Yakeen nahi hota  ki tum wahi ladki ho jo meri insult seh nahi sakti thi aj wahi ladki mujhe har kadam par Sare aam zaleel karti hai... "

"Mujhe laga shayad waqt ke sath sab theek ho jayega lekin kuch sahi nahi hua... Balki tumhari manmaniyaa or bdtameezi or badhti gayi lekin meine fir bhi kuch nahi kaha... Tumne apni pregnancy ke bare me sach chupaye.. Me seh gaya.... Lekin aaj jo tumne kia hai" His eyes again filled with mad rage "agar meri beti ko kuch bhi hua.... Mark my words... Tumhe jaan se maar dalunga... Or mere hath kampenge bhi nahi" He said dangerously.

All of sudden she was feeling naked in front of him with no secrets,  "kyu Rajveer tumne aisa kyu kiya... Kyu kabhi mujhe confront nahi kia... Kyu mujhse kabhi nahi lade.. Kyu meri badtamizio ko sehte rahe... Or Lavanya to tumhara apna khoon bhi nahi to fir tum usko itna pyar kyu... "

"Tum to lavanya ki sagi Maa ho na.... Fir tum uss se pyaar kyu nahi karti ho..? Tumhe uski parwah kyu nahi.. Wo to tumhara khoon hai na.. Fir kya hua....?" It was a slap on her face "you know jab Lavanya ne mujhe papa kaha.. To uss din mujhe realise hua ki I am not alone now... Koi hai jise mein apna keh sakta hu.. Koi hi jisne rishto ko samajhne se pehle hi mujhe apna mann lia.... That day I decided, ki Lavanya hi abse meri family hai jiske hasne ya rone se mujhe fark padta hai... I don't care about the blood koi khoon ka rishta ye nahi bata sakta ki mein Lavanya se kitna pyaar karta hu lekin aaj wo khoon ki darar tumne meri ek lauti family me daal di.... Or uske liye me tumhe zindagi bhar maaf nahi karunga." He left from there.. Leaving her alone drawning in the pool of regret.

"I am sorry Rajveer... Am really sorry... Jab tum mujhe kehte the to me tumhari batein ansuni kar deti thi lekin  Aaj mujhe samajh araha hai ki meine kya khoya hai... Sone ki talaash me meine heera kho diya, khushiya mere pass hi thi lekin meine unhe khud hi thukra diya.... Apne hi haatho apna ghar jala diya" She was crying bitterly on her own stupidity "sahi kehti hai Lavanya me ek Maa ke naam par dhabba hu... Na hi ek acchi patni ban payi Or na hi dost... Apne sab rishto me mein nakamiyab rahi..." She wiped her tears with new determination "lekin ab bhi kuch nahi bigda.. Jo khoya hai, mein usey fir pa sakti hu, apna bana sakti hu... Mein sab thik kar dungi... We'll be A happy family.. I promise."

"Princess... " He lovingly creasing her hairs, she slowly opened her eyes.. Saw him almost in tears, tears also started to form in her eyes. "It's okay.. Sab thik ho jayega.. Dad is here".

"Da... " She stopped realising the fact that there relationship changed with one truth.

"Bolo... Ruk kyu gayi, " She was sobbing "kya uss ek sach ki wajah se tumhare dill me apne Dad ke liye pyaar kam ho gaya.. Kya tum ab mujhe kabhi Dad nahi kahogi.. Kya tum sab kuch bhula dogi... " He asked in painful voice.

"I am sorry... I am sorry.... Dad.. I am sorry" She started crying bitterly.

"Shhh.....  It's okay Princess, galati ho jati hai, tumse bhi hui... Lekin galatiyon se hume seekh leni chahiye unke leke rona nahi, no matter what happens.. Tum meri beti ho, koi khoon ka rishta use jhutla nahi sakta, dill ke rishte iss duniya me sabse bade hote hai" He kissed her forehead.

"Love you Dad..."

"Love you too Princess... " Outside was standing Kaira, tears of guilt in her eyes..
