Chapter-1
It was a usual day.After having breakfast Shona got ready for the hospital. As she was passing by the living room,she saw her big fat brother again eating snakcs full
of callories.This pissed her off.She snatched the chips packet from his hand and shouted,
"Dada!!! eta kii?"(what is this)
He was not ready for this sudden attack,
"Shona,this is not fair...Give my chips back!"
"Dada,u know this is so unhealthy and this is not the time for snacks...go have some healthy breakfast" she quickly moved to kitchen and handed over the packet to her mother,"dont give it to him!" and got cornflakes in milk for him.
"Here...eat this" said she.He made a dull face and murmured "boring girl,boring choice!"
"Kii?"She raised her brow.
"Nothing!" he mocked.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Her heart was beating at a high pace.After almost two years,she was going to step into the same house from where it all started.
As she reached the gate,her sight fall onto the nameplate,"Ishwari Nivas" and her heart sank.She was not able to move forward.How will she face them again...she does not have that courage and strenth now..she is weak too weak to control her emotions...what will happen when she has to face him...how will she control her cheeks not to turn red!How will she control her heart not to beat fast!How will she control her eyes not to gaze him secretly!How!!!
But she has to do it..."Yes I have to do it!For Neha...I have promised her that I will take care of her untill she deliveres and then...and then move out of thier lives silently...!
She took a deep breath and prepared herself to face the most unwanted situation.
"Madam!" The security guard greeted her and told "Neha didi is waiting for u"
She nodded and smiled.
She moved inside silently and glanced,everything was same,nothing had changed in these two years except her feelings and may be his!
"Arey Dr didi...aaiye...baithiye(Please come and sit)" Keechu the servent came and greeted her and went inside to call Neha.
She sat,her throat was dry and palms were cold as if it was first day of her job.
Few moments later Neha came,she seemed to be very happy to see her.she hugged her tightly
I knew ..I just knew it..that u will agree...thank u shona..thank u so much..."she said enthusiastically.
Sonakshi too felt happy to see her best friend.
"There was not question of disagreement..afterall its your delivery...my best friend's first baby is coming..."
"hmm...but first tell me..whom am I talking to...Dr.Bose the nutritionist...or Shone..My friend"
"umm..its both...nutritionist cum frnd!"said sonakshi and they both laughed.
"Lets go to my room..we will be comfortable there..."said Neha and they both went to her room.
As sonakshi entered in her room,she saw a big box of icecream there.
"Neha...u ate this full icecream...and that too in ur 7th month!!!"She almost screamed
Neha shocked,"OMG how could she forgot to dump this big sign of her crime before her Ms.perfect nutritionist visit..!!!"
She stammared.."I..no..no.."
Sonakshi stared her hard.
"I am sorry!" Neha said with hunged head.
Sonakshi could'nt stop but to smile.
"Its okay...but from now..u will eat only what I allow"
"Yes mam" Neha said with a low tone and looked at her acting scared and they again laughed.
"But seriously Shona,thank you so much...I know its really hard for you to come here and visit me daily...I tried a lot to convice mother...but she said that my first delivery should be at my mother's place so I have to shift here... "
"Its ok Neha..I understand and its true that no one can take care of you more than your mother...and whatever happned,but you are my friend and taking care of you in this time is above everything!"
They both were busy in chatting when she heard his voice..."Nehaaa!"
He came...Ohh God! Shona closed her eyes for a bit... he was behind her...she could feel his presence...her heart started beating very fast...it was hard to control not to turn back and hug him tightly and cry out loud..."Why!!!Why!!! Dev..." but she knows that she can't do anything.She was sitting like a statue.He came closer and closer and hugged Neha,"Neha it is so good to see you!" his voice chocked.though she was not able to see his face.He was standing in front of her having his back on her side,but she could figure out that his eyes were full of tears.
Whatever but he loves his family more than anything,that she knows.
"Bhai!Dr.Bose..."Neha said
And he turned,she looked at him...it was very difficult to stop her tears now...both were looking at each other with teary eyes...in a moment everything flashed like a film... his care..his calm..his love..his promises...his family and then...his helplessness...his agony and his decision...everything was his...as if she was nothing...but then...she was also his...she herself smitten into him...!
