Aarav was shocked:What?
Apeksha:We just know that he belongs to the Khurana family.
A:Does that mean I am an adopted son?
G:Aarav,we did'nt want to get married.But we wanted a child.So we opted artificial insemination.We know that the donor who donated the sperm belongs to the Khurana family.We did'nt get into the details.It was the donor's grand mother who approached us when we put an advertisement without revealing our name.Her grand son wanted to do a favour.We accepted it.But we did'nt want him to claim you later.As per the contract,he did'nt try to search for you or did'nt try to enquire who his child's mother is.
Ap:Aarav,don't you want to know in whose womb you took birth?Who is your real mother?Your mother is...
A:No.I don't want to know that.
Geet and Apeksha could'nt believe it.
A:You both are my mothers.I want both of you.
Aarav informed Pinky about this.
P:Aarav,what is artificial insemination?
A:I researched on this on google.Artificial insemination is a means of attaining pregnancy not involving sexual intercourse. A couple having trouble getting pregnant can benefit from the exact timing and placement of the sperm.It is also a means for a woman to conceive when two women like my mothers wish to parent a child, or a single woman does not have a male partner, when she does not want a male partner.
P:Cool.But Aarav,don't you feel like at least seeing your father?
Aarav smiled:To be frank now I feel like seeing my father.Because whoever my father is..he does'nt know who my mother is.My mother and my my father have no relationship with each other.So I don't think knowing him or seeing him will make difference in our life.
Aarav expressed his desire to meet his father to his mothers.
G:What are you saying Aarav?If he meet him he may try to find out who his child's mother is.We are not comfortable with it.
A:Please mumma...please...I promise...it won't create problems.
Ap:What if he is not interested in you?
A:Then I will come back soon.I just want to see him once.Just once.
Apeksha and Geet were confused.
Ap:Geet...let him see his father once.
G:Ok.
A:Thank you so much.
G:But how will he identify your father?There might be many men in Khurana.
A:That I will find out.
Aarav went out.
Geet was tense.
Apeksha went near her.
Ap:Geet...
G:I don't know what Aarav is upto.My courage is draining.
Ap:He is our son.He will handle the situation well.
G:In a way he has the right to feel his father's love which he did'nt get because of our selfishness.
Apeksha became upset:But I wonder how that man will react when he sees him.
G:Even I am thinking about that.
Ap:But let us hope that everything happens for good.
Aarav reached the Khurana Mansion.Savitri Devi,the eldest of the family looked at him.
S:Who are you beta?
A:I am Aarav.Son of a Khurana and I am here in search of my dad.
Savitri was shocked.
Note:I got this idea from the malayalam movie 'Buddy' which is inspired by the Oscar nominated American film The Kids Are All Right (2010).But my story is different though in Buddy also the lead heroines are a writer and a dancer.
