Part 3
Riya was humming a tune in the kitchen... Her gaze diverted to the calender and the date sent her into a flashback mode...
"Bachca tu akele kyun rahegi... Yaha aaja na hamare paas..."
"Nahi, main yahi theek hu Di... Main waha nahi aa sakti Di... Aur main akeli thodi hoon"
"Kyun bachcha... Hum dono bhi akele hain aur iss halaat main mujhe tumhari zaroorat hogi na..."
"Sorry Di... Please mujhe force na kijiye... Aap ka khayal rakhne ke liye bahut log hain..."
"Haan to tu nahi maanegi... "
"Aapko pata hain Di... Mera waha nahi aana majboori hain..."
"Mujhe koi majboori samajh ni aati.. Tu aur tere bahane ..."
"Love you Di need to go... "
Her own conversation with her sister flashed infront of her eyes.. All moments spend came infront of her..
Soon she jerks out of her thoughts and places the breakfast on the table.. Walking upstairs she reaches the room of her angels who were sleeping cuddling her pillow...
Smiling at the sight she rushes to them kissing their foreheads...
"Aroush, Ariyaa uthooo chalooo... Princesss, Angel Cmon Get Up "
They cover their faces with pillows.. Riya comes closer and starts tickling them...
"Mummmaaa tholi daer aurr... "
"NO"
"Aisha nahi uthenge hum..."
"Ok Aroush Arjun Suryakant Rawte and Ariya Arjun Suryakant Rawte Get up now...
Apne Dada ke saath breakfast nahi karna hain kya... "
"Daddy ke shaath?? "
"Daddy ghal par hain???"
Both of them get up immediately as soon as they come to know their Daddy Dearest is at home...
"Haan Aroush Ariya chalo jaldi se brush karlo.. Phir play school bhi toh janna hain... Goood Morninnnggg"
"Gooodd Morning Mummmaaa... " both scream at the same time...
"Aap kuch bhool toh nahi rahi hoo na???" asked Riya standing a bit far from the bed...
"Nahi Mumma"
They both come closer and kiss Riya on her cheeks... Riya too turns around reciprocating the kiss and lifts them both in thier arms to take them to wash room...
A certain Mr. Rawte stood there watching his daughters and wife play in the bathroom with water. The kids had drenched Riya with water too..
"Yeh kya Angel, Princess.. Aap dono ne mumma ko poora bhigo diya... Badmaash hogayi hooo"
They splash some more water on her and after a fun filled session Riya takes them out... She dresses them up in cute pink frocks and takes them out in her arms...
She whispers in the kids ears " Aroush Ariya jaao jaake Daddy ke saath breakfast kijiye... Mamma change karke aati hoon... "
"Okey Mummmaa.. .Jalllii..."
They leave and run towards Arjun's room.. His room seemed empty.. The kids rushed towards dining table to find their Daddy Dearest seated on the Head Of The Family Chair reading a newspaper...
"Goood Morning Papa " Both scream in unision...
Good Mornin Aroush Ariya... He gave them a small smile...
He served the dishes while Riya took her own sweet time to get ready... She knew Arjun would serve them whenever he was home in mornings... Inspite of their differences, Arjun made sure to spend atleast a day or two with the kids and this made Riya fall for him more...
She changed into a pink suit, applied her sindoor and wore her mangal sutra... She said to herself
"Kaash woh din jald aaye jab aap mujh par khud se yeh rang lagaye.. Mujhe aapke rang main rangne de na Arjun... "
Hearing voices, she comes down to see both of them fighting to eat from Arjun's hand.. She stood at the door, staring at the adorable sight infront if her.. Arjun trying to pacify both of them as they both wanted to be the first one to eat from their dad's hand...
Seeing Riya, Arjun stiffened a bit.. .Riya stood not moving... And Arjun took a piece in both hands to feed both of them together... "Ab khush??"
He asked them while they smiled and jumping on his lap, kissed his cheeks...
Riya walked in to clear the miss both the baap and betis had done and she was murmuring to herself... Seeing her blabber, the kids started to smile...
"Muummaaa,, aapki heelp kaldo mumma..."
"Naahii Princess, aap wahi daddy ke paas raho.. Mumma karlenge sab... "
She started muttering to herself again making both of them laugh... Even Arjun was smiling seeing the kids trouble Riya..
Riya turned around, hands on hips...
"Aap sab mujhpe hasne se acha hoga, jaake taiyaar hojaye..."
"Mummaa, Paapa aur hum toh hogaye naa.."spoke Ariya..
"Haan, aur aapka school bag woh sab kaun kalega... Chalo Daddy uthiye aur unhe ready kijiye school ke liye... "
Arjun gets up from chair, both his daughters in his arms and takes them to their room all the while cooing in their ears and playing with them... Riya wipes a lone tear on her cheek and gets busy packing lunch for Aroush and Ariya...
As both of them come down, Riya places their tiffin boxes in their bags.. Kissing her cheeks they bid good bye while Arjun goes off to drop them...
Riya packs her stuff and arranging everything again, leaves for ETF...
Arjun after dropping Aroush and Ariya, drives away for ETF office...
Sameer Rathod was busy screaming at Shree and Chotu for something when Arjun entered... Ayesha came to Sameer to calm him down... Arjun indicated Sameer to meet him in his cabin while Riya stood there laughing at her friends... Shree made up a face and went directly to his cabin, slamming the door shut..
Riya opened it and peeked at him... He was sitting with a grumpy expression...
Before Riya could even pacify him, a voice on the speakers "Team, we have a case... Assemble in parking lot..."
They all leave... Riya to goes with them to the crime scene.. After checking the area, they all reach conference room... Riya as usual was with her statistics.. .Sometimes they were needed to solve cases... Everyone shut up commented on the statistics especially since she was Riya Rawte... najaane kab kiski band bajade...
Shree, Chotu and Liza were visibly irritated with Riya's blabbering... And Ayesha was enjoying all that... While the khadoos ACP's were busy concentrating on the case... Ayesha poked Riya to shut up with her statistics...
Sitting in the conference room, as everyone was discussing the case.. .Riya stood with a coffee mug at the far corner of the room... She was in some other world.. Somebody did notice that, but nobody asked her anything... A while later, a boy came with 5 cups of coffee and one cutting chai for all of them.. Riya served the coffee and chai to everyone... She looked at her watch, it was 15 mins before she is done with her duty..
Riya gave Rathod all the required documents, and politely taking permission left the conference room... Picking up her car keys she left the ETF to pick up Aroush and Ariya...
Mummmaaa, chaliye na icce cream khatee hain na, pleaashh...
"Mummaaa yeaashhh, icee creeeammm..."
She was about to refuse, but seeing their innocent faces, she agreed.. .They had icecream in a mall.. Hygiene freak Riya, would never buy icecream from an ice cream stall... Reachin home, Riya took them to their room...
She saw both of tired and picking them up in her arms put them to sleep humming a song so that they fall asleep soon... It was not long before she noticed her angels in deep sleep dreaming sweet stuff...
Sleep was very far away from her.. She took a look at the laptop and her diary.. Opening her diary, she saw the baby photos of Aroush and Ariya.. She sometimes felt like she loved Aroush more than Ariya, sometimes Ariya more than Aroush... She could never differentiate anything that happened with them as it happened with her...
But sometimes she needed Arjun... She needed him around her... Was it too much to ask for emotional support.. Here she was with both of them, letting go her career, her everything and there he was busy so much in his work that he didnt have one whole day for the kids... It was not her mistake, destiny had bound them together.. Why did he have to blame her for everything that went wrong...
She looked up at the sky as if asking gods, the reason for so much for her to bear.. She knew she had both the angels with her.. But the guilt that it was coz of her, Arjun stopped himself coming closer to Aroush and Ariya was too much for her to bear..
Riya went back to the day these two were born.. Aroush and Ariya... Aroush was in short of Rosh and Ariya was in short of Riya...
The names could have been Rosh or Roshni as it was, and Riya for Riya.. But as they were Arjun's kids, Riya felt that the names would have more meaning, if they were Aroush and Ariya...
Short of Arjun - Rosh and Arjun Riya...
Aroush was Princess and Ariya was Angel...
