Days went by and under the strict supervision of the Doctors and with the love and care of Anjali,Riya started to recover. Moreover,she was able to move her lower body,where she suffered the spinal cord injury,slowly. Anjali was really happy seeing Riya being able to move. She joined her hands and prayed to Bappa for Riya.
Riya was being discharged today. With the help of the nurse and Anjali,she changed into normal clothes and sat on the wheelchair,waiting for Anjali. As she came inside with the discharge papers,she smiled and said, ''Ab hum ghar jarahe hai.. Humare ghar... Waise,aaj aap humare bete Arjun se bhi mil lijiyega... Dopaher ko lunch keliye aayenge.. Aap jab milengi unse,toh bohut accha lagega aapko..''
''Sure,Aunty..'' Riya replied,with a smile.
''Aunty nahi... Aai kahiye humein... Aap humari beti hai,toh aapko Aai bolna hi hoga... Samazla..'' Anjali told.
''Ji zaroor,Aai...'' Riya said.
As they came out of the hospital,Anjali helped her to sit in the car carefully and herself sat beside Riya...They zoomed off to Rawte Mansion.
Rathore Mansion:
''What the hell is this? Yeh kya hai? Aise koi serve karta hai kya? Jangli jaanwar kahike.. Dur hojao meri nazro se...'' Ayesha said furiously to Ramu kaka.
As Sameer came in,he saw Ramu kaka going away with the tray,going to the kitchen. He came near him and asked politely,
''Kya hua Ramu kaka? Aap aise kyun tray le jarahe hai andar?''
''Sahab.. (after a pause) hum aur kaam nahi karsakte hai yahaan... Naukar hai toh kya? Hum bhi aap jaise insaan hai,koi jangli jaanwar nahi jo aisi zillat sahe... Bare sahab aur Bari Memsahab jab guzar gaye,tab aapki bagdor humein soph gaye thhe.. Aap acche hai,par,ab nahi rahe... Bura mat maniyega,lekin,Ayesha bahurani ke aane ke baad,yeh ghar ek ghar nahi,kaed khana ban gaya hai... Ghar hi nahi lagta... Hum aur nahi rahenge aur nahi humein iss mahina ka pagaar chahiye... Hum chalte hai,Sahab... Par,humein dukh iss baat ka humesha rahega ki hum Bare Sahab aur Bari Memsahab ko diya huda wada pura nahi karpaye.. Chalte hai... Khamba Ghani...'' Ramu Kaka said and left Rathore Mansion with his wife,Amba,who loved Riya like their own daughter.
Sameer was left speechless with his words.. He didnt realise that in his Life,he and Ayesha have hurt them in many ways. He shrugged off those thoughts and ent towards his room.. No traces of asking forgiveness nor any sympathy or repentance.
Rawte Mansion:
Riya and Anjali entered.Before Riya entered,she did Riya's Aarti and made her enter.Riya was amazed seeing the interor and the exterior of the house... It was simply a palace,where you get a homely feeling. The servants' were well dressed and well behaved. Riya made a note of it. She was taken to her new room,where everything was kept ready according to Anjali's instructions.
''Beta,ab aap aaram kijiye.. Hum change karke aate hai... Dopaher ko aapko khana khilana hai aur medicines bhi deni hai... Abhi yahaan aapke paer mein therapy treatment keliye ek Tai ayengi.. Doctor ne kaha hai ki roz aapko therapy treatment lena hoga,thik hai... Aaram kijiye..'' Anjali smiled and carressed her forehead.
''Ji,Aai...'' Riya smiled and thought about her destiny... She was really lucky to have meet with Anjali aai. She is just like her Maasa.. Little drops of tears formed in her eyes,remembering about her Maasa. She wiped them and turned on the TV..
Meanwhile,Arjun came home for Lunch.The servant took his laptop bag and kept it in his study.. He went to his and got freshened up quickly... Changed into a loose tshirt and trackpants,he went towards the Mandir and prayed to Bappa for his Aai and for everyone. He was about to call his Aai when he thought, ''Aai ne bola thha ki koi guest humare saath rahengi.. Kya naam thha?? Umm.. Haan.. Riya... Bohut pyara naam hai... But,kismat ne bhi kya bura khel khela unke saath.. Mil leta hu unse..''
Arjun went towards the guestroom.Being a gentleman,he knocked the door and Riya asked him to come inside. As soon as he saw her,he was spellbound. He smiled and came inside. He sat taking a small sofa.
''Aap Riya hai,right?''
''Ji haan.. Aur,aap Arjun hai.. DCP Arjun Rawte.. Aapko kaun nahi jaanta hai.. The famous supercop.. Nice meeting you... Aai ne kahaa thha aapke bare mein...'' Riya replied,with a gentle smile.
''Hmm.. Lagta hai Aai ne aapko bohut kuch bataya hai,par,ek baat nahi batayi aapko,ki,main bohut gussail kisim ka aadmi hu.. Itna jaldi gussa nahi aata hai mujhe.. Bharkaya jaaye toh aajata hai.. Waise,i am a very friendly,caring guy.. So,mujhse dosti karoge?'' Arjun told about him and asked Riya about becoming friends.
''Friends... Dosti ki hai,nibhani toh paregi...'' Riya replied with a smile...
The chord of friendship struck between them and since then,it was unbreakable... Anjali also noticed it and she was happy for Arjun,as well as Riya.. She prayed to Bappa for both of them..
