Just a year before my father got to know her truth . He was really mad and sad . He never thought she can do this . He hated her and removed her from our life .

He was very angry when he got to know what all i did was for him . He considered himself as the reason for our seperation. We tried our best to find you but couldn't. But still i didn't loose hope. Maybe it was the punishment for pushing you away from me god gave me . But I knew i would find you.

And then dad wanted to visit india as he missed this place too much . I had a few cafe opened here with different names and all the money from these cafe was used for orphanages. I opened it after I got to know that i was a orphan.

And at the same time mishra ji told me that you are taking a great care of cafe and the sales are more than any other cafe . So i decided to thank the girl who helped me this much considering i was coming to India anyway.

But i never thought that you will be here . And i never thought i will get to know the biggest happiness of my life.

My kid . My child .

Maya

He completed . He has been through so much . So much all to keep me safe.
Everything so he can keep his father safe .

I am bad . I thought that he never loved me but no i was wrong . The truth is that he never stopped loving me. He loved me . He didn't think that i have killed our child . Unknowingly a tear escaped from my eyes .

He wiped it through his thumb .

I hugged him tight.

"D..dhruv i ...i missed you. I missed you so much. "  I cried on his chest .

"I Missed you too maya . Only i know how i spent these 5 years without you, everyday was a cursed one  ".

But i backed off. This is not done.
He looked at me confuse , studying my face trying to find an answer for my sudden behaviour.

"What happened?"

" I don't want to talk to you".

"Why?".

"Mr dhruv kapoor what do you think love is? ".

He still looked at me like am some kind of alien .

"Answer me!"

"Umm.. trusting each other. Loving each other i guess".

"Partially true".

"I didn't knew i had a test going on otherwise i would have studied".
He said trying to laugh it off but i glared and his laugh subsided.

"Love is just not about trusting or loving. Its about standing with each other in thier thick and thins , sharing your partner's share of sorrow. Love doesn't only stand for happiness it stands for sorrow too , pains too . How would you have felt if the same thing i did what you did ?

You kept me away from you for my safety, i understood but telling me we would have solved the problem together. You didn't had to suffer alone . We didn't have to suffer alone . We would have been together . "

He took me in a tight hug . No words were exchanged. The feeling was different but not new . Niether for him nor for me  .  We missed our life , some crucial part with each other.

"Am not sorry maya because i know of you would have done the same thing. "

He said breaking the hug . And continued.

"Yes loving each other do mean all the things that you have said . But it also mean keeping the one you love safe. Till eternity. Death might not be in our hand but protecting them from a deadly situation is love . I know you are upset with me but i couldn't do anything at that point".

"No i am sorry dhruv. I know how you must have felt . It must have been hard for you."

Trying my best to understand him , i let out everything.

Saying this we embraced each other.
But it was broken by my phone ring.
It was chaya .

"Maya where are u ? Ayush is going crazy he is not sleeping at all ." And then i realised it was late Night . I glanced towards dhruv and saw her looking at me intensely.

"Chaya i am coming soon". Saying this i hung up.

"Dhruv we have to leave . Its already dark. Ayush is waiting."

He nodded. I close the cafe .

"We can go in my car ". He said and i nodded as its impossible to get a bus or a cab at this moment.

We reached home and As i opened the gate . Ayush came running. This boy is always running. Just now he got hirt and now running like no tomorrow.

"Papa now you will not leave us na "ayush asked him Hugging his legs and looked up at me for answer . I know what is he thinking so sitting on my knees and matching to ayush level i kissed his cheeks and said "no baby. Now your daddy will not go anywhere. He will be with us forever."

And we shared a group hug.

Family -Not everyone is Lucky to have one . Thier are orphans craving for it . We should consider ourselves lucky that we have one.
