Chapter 45

Nani: "Yes... now that Damadji is here... Muskaan Bitiya can meet her father."

Shyam: "Yes... I am too eager to meet my daughter... where is she..? (looking at Muskaan who was sitting on Akash's lap) ...is this Muskaan... our daughter...?" he asked to Anjali.

Anjali smiling even more widely: "Yes... she is Muskaan...our daughter... (to Muskaan) ...Beta come here..."

Shaym forwarding his hands: "Yes dear... come here... I am your father... come..."

Muskaan looked at Anjali and then at Shyam and then clinged even tightly to Akash and started crying making everyone worried.

Akash: "Muskaan... beta... what happened?"

Anjali now sitting beside Muskaan: "Beta kya hua... why are you crying?"

Muskaan still hiding her face in Akash's chest: "I... I... don't like him... he is ... ...bad..." because of crying she started to hiccup and Akash patted her back to calm her.

Arnav and NK smiled in their mind feeling proud of their niece as she could easily make out that Shyam is not a good person.

Anjali: "Beta he is not bad... he is your Papa..."

Muskaan cried even louder and Akash said: "Di... leave it... if she doesn't like Jijaji then don't force her... look how she is crying."

Anjali: "But Akash..."

Akash: "No Di... you can't force Muskaan to like or talk to anyone... she will only do what she likes." saying that he picked up Muskaan in his arms and walked away from there.
