Great to hear your exam went good...now good luck for the next one.

Nice update, possessiveness of Jai...wonder how he will take it when Krishna becomes crazy about Bani? Jealousy? Can't wait for the next update.

Yes, Bani is moving to Mumbai. She will be Krishna's teacher, and that is how JB will meet. Can't wait. Please continue when you can, and I'm glad that your exams went well. Good luck for the rest.

Glad your exam went well, good luck with the rest.

Thank you for the update, it was great.

Now waiting for JB to meet.

Until your next update, think only exams, exams,exams and take care.

And guess what I have after that, EVS, environmental studies, seriously Mumbai University has gone nuts...electronics students will study nature...HA!!! I can write a thesis on environment...!

PART-8

Bani sat reading the newspaper, sipping black tea; she saw kiran chatting with pia along side playing with Harsh, who had become naughtier, he had just completed two...they had arrived yesterday evening, and since she saw a sea of change in kiran, she saw her happy and content...she was glad she let her insecurities dissolve and not deter her...after all she just can't live her live copped up in drudgery...there were people far more important, people who loved her immensely, people who forgave her despite everything, people who stood by her when times were hard... she turned the page, suddenly her eyes fell on the newspaper ad in the classified section...it was a small notice, looking for a qualified teacher in a school "Bachpan", for nursery, K.G. and U.KG....the salary was too good, almost double that what she had got in Dehradun, but more than the salary it was the job, a teacher, children whom she adored, just when she was thinking of what to do, she just couldn't live wither sister always... though she knew pia wouldn't mind, but everyone had their own privacy which should not be breached...she quickly cut the ad and kept it safely, she will go to the school tomorrow itself for the interview, she even had experience which was another plus point that would work for her advantage...she will ask Pushkar jijaji to drop her there tomorrow... after eons she was looking forward for some positivity... she felt satiated, getting up she went and picked up harsh, playing with him like a little kid...

"Thank you jijaji..." bani said looking, bending down, looking at him through the open window...

"It's okay bani...and all the best..." pushkar smiled...

"Okay ab main chalti hoon, have a nice day..." bani said waving at him...he started the engine of his maruti alto and zoomed ahead...

"Krishu....come..." jai opened the door, picking up Krishna; he walked towards the gate, letting her go...

"Bye papa..." she waved at him...

"Bye beta..." she blew him a kiss, he caught it...acting as if he kept it inside his pocket, krishu giggled... and ran off...the peon was ringing the bell... his mobile buzzed, he took it out checking the call, turning around to walk towards his car, when he crashed against something, no someone...

"Ahh!!!" bani steadied herself she was re-checking her certificates and was not watching where she was going when she collided with someone...

"I am so sorry..." she heard a thick musky voice...bani looked up to see a tall man gazing at her apologetically...she lost her speech for a moment...

"It's...it's okay...I was not watching myself..." bani mumbled...

"Well...sorry again..." jai said walking past her... bani simply nodded her head, going ahead...for an unknown reason jai felt like dj vu...as if he had seen the girl somewhere before but wasn't able to place her...it was not her face, he turned around to see her back, yes, he was sure he had seen her... feeling stupid he left the matter and sat in his car, leaving for his office...
XXXX
Bani tried to maintain her composure as the lady principal went through her certificates, quite impressed by her scores and experience, also the references from her previous school where she worked...

"Good Ms. Dixit..." the principal said...looking up... he liked the quiet uncertain but yet confident young girl sitting in front of her... she had checked her age, 23, too young to handle children, and in these advanced times youngsters very too ambitious, leading a fast-paced life, wanting all comforts, specially money and here she was seeing a girl wanting to teach little children, hardly anything as compared to the hotshot corporate job...

"Thank you maam..." bani said with a restrained smile...

"I wonder Ms. Dixit...now a days where youth is striving in corporate, call centers, BPOs; going to US and all...I am surprised to find a young girl teaching children..."

"I like teaching and more than that...I love children..." bani said with a flair of confidence...

"Hmm...Well, Mrs. Gupta, whom you will be replacing will relieve in a few days...so you can officially join next week, but seeing your keenness I would like if you join tomorrow...get a bit familiar... ..."

"Oh!! Thank you maam...so kind of you..."

"So, then see you tomorrow Ms. Dixit..."

"Thank you maam...and please call me Bani..."

"Sure bani..." she smiled... ...
XXXX
Bani for the first time seemed happy as she rushed home, hugging her mother tightly...

"Kya baat hain beta...itni khush lag rahin hain..." kiran asked surprised...

"Maa, mujhe naukri mil gayi..."

"Waah!!!!"

"Haan...main bohot khush hoon..."

"Main bhi..." kiran said with moist eyes...

"Main soch rahi thi ki ek ghar bhi dekh loon, rent pe..." bani said...

"Bani...yeh kya baat hui..." pia intervened...

"Kitne din yahaan rahenge didi...maa reh sakti hain...par...main...theek nahin lagta..."

"Bani...aisa kuch nahin hain..."

"Didi please...iss baat main aap kuch mat kahiye...school ke paas hi main kahin ek bedroom flat rent pe le loongi, mere savings bhi hain..." bani suggested...

"Theek hain...main pushkar se baat karti hoon..."

"Ji..."

Next Day... ...

Bani smiled cheerfully, as she saw the kids sitting, busy in their own world...

"Hi...bachon..." she said...trying to catch their attention...seeing her everyone got up to greet her...

"Good morning misss..." they sang together...

"Good morning...sit down..."

"Main aapki nayi teacher hoon...Bani..."

"Chaliye ab aap sab eke k karke apna pyaara sa naam bataiye... "

Bani sat in the middle, on the small stool, surrounded by the children who kept saying their names...

"Krishna..." little Krishna said in a sweet voice...bani looked at the cute girl, with chubby cheeks, curly hair... just the way described in the nursery rhyme...she didn't know why, but she felt like she had know her since ages...as if she was connected to her in some way...yes, if her daughter would have been alive she would have been just like Krishna...pretty like a princess...she gulped down, trying to control her sour emotions trying to keep them at bay...

"Krishna..." she whispered to herself... ...

"Chalo, aaj hum sab rhymes seekhenge..." bani said zealously... ...
XXXX
"Twinkle...twinkle...little star...how I...I..." Krishna tried to recollect the poem...

"How I wonder what you are..." jai sang along with her, buttoning her night shirt properly...

"Uske baad...bhool gayi..." Krishna pouted...

"Koi baat nahin princess..." jai lifted her up in the air, making her dive down...tickling her, Krishna giggled...

"Papa...pata hain aaj ek new miss aayi..." Krishna said gulping down the milk...

"Hmm...kaun..."

"B...bani miss...kitni chweet hain..."

"Acha..."

"Hmm...miss ne hi rhyme shikhaya..." Krishna kept the glass aside, finishing it...

"Hmm..." jai wiped her mouth clean...

"Chalo...sleep..."

"Story..."

"Papa ko story nahin aati hain..." jai said putting her in her bed...

"Pleeesseee..."

"Acha...ummm...ek...rajkumar tha..."

"Aur fir..." Krishna asked

"Fir...pyaari si rajkumari thi..."
XXXX
"Pata hain maa...ek bachi hain mere class main...kitni pyaari hain...Krishna..."

"Kitna sundar naam hain na..." bani said helping her mother clean up...

"Haan..."

"Pata nanin kyun use dekhke aisa laga ki...main use jaanti hoon...bohot pehle se...jaise ki koi rishta ko humare beech..." bani said dreamily, imagining Krishna's face...

"Hota hain beta...kabhi kabhi humme lagta hain ki hum kisiko bohot pehle se jaante hain...bas bhram hain..."

"Nahin maa...sach main...agar meri bachi zinda hoti toh bilkul aise hi hoti..." bani said, kiran stood still, leaving her work mid-way...she looked at bani, there was no sadness, just an innocent wish...bani met her mother's sorry eyes...

"Maine aapko bohot tang kiya na...aapne fir bhi mujhe apna liya...main...main bohot buri hoo na..." bani said lowering her gaze...

"Nahin beta...bas waqt bura tha...aur tere saath itna sab kuch hogaya..."

"Toh cahlo aap itna toh maanti hain ki mera waqt bura hain..." bani joked...

"Nahin..."kiran wiped her arrested tears...

"Maa...aap bohot achi ho..." bani hugged her... ...
