''Di please take care of wounds and make sure you have some rest.You can join your tomorrow i will inform daadi''said Akash and pragya nodded.
''Okay Aaksh.I will see you tomorrow''said pragya with a smile.
''Di i will drop you''said Akash but pragya nodded negatively.
''No Akash i am sure you are needed here more that i do now.so i will take a cab you just make call me once Aarav gets conscious and infrom me how he is''asked pragya and Akash nodded.
''Sure di''said Akash and pragya left from there without even looking Abhi once.
''Akash what happened?''asked Abhi knowing he did a mistake by jumping into conclusion without knowing the situation properly.Then Akash explained everything and Abhi closed his eyes with regret for hurting the person who saved him son and decided to apologize to Pragya as soon as possible.
*************
''Bhai you must apologise and thank her ASAP,coz you really hurted her.I know you think all the girl are like Tanu,but there are many girls there like pragya di who loves to him other without expecting anything in return''said Akash keeping his hand on Abhi's shoulder.Abhi took a deep breath and gave Akash a nod.
''I know Akash i did a mistake this time and i will apologize to her tomorrow.''said Abhi and Akash smiled.This is the character Akash admired in his bhai a lot.He will always accept if he did any mistake and will do anything to rectify it.
''Thanks bhai.Lets see Aarav first''said Akash and Abhi with nod entered Aarav's room.As both of them entered the room they saw their little Aarav laying on the bed covered with a blanket.Once they reached the bed Abhi sofly caressed his son's face with love and relief.Just then Aarav started to stir from his sleep and looked Abhi with confused look.Seeing his son awake Abhi pulled him closer to his chest with relief as his eyes got moist.Only he know what all he gone through from the moment he got the call from the orphanage about Aarav's accident.He felt like someone pulled oxygen from his lungs and he felt his world crumbling after know his son was hurt.Only after hearing from the doctor that Aarav is fine made his breath in relief again.
''Papa i am fine.please don't cry''said Aarav in his cute voice and that's when Abhi realized he was crying and broke the hug.Then Aarav wiped Abhi's tears with his small hand and Abhi kissed Aarav on his forehead.
''Promise you will never scare papa like this again''asked Abhi and Aarav smiled in return.
''I promise papa and sorry for scaring you''said Aarav and Abhi smiled seeing his son cuteness.
''Its okay beta''said Abhi with a smile.
''Hey champ you really scared me you know''said Akash sitting on the bed beside Aarav.
''Sorry chachu''said Aarav said but Akash just shook his head with a smile and kissed Aarav's cheek.
''Its okay champ.''said Akash.
''Papa,chachu where is the aunty who saved me?''asked Aarav.
''Woh beta she went to her home for some important work''said Akash.
''Chachu i want to say thank you to her so will you take me to her?''asked Aarav and Akash looked at Abhi.
''I will take you to meet her beta but not today as you must take rest.Once you get well i will take you to meet her''said Abhi.
''But papa i really want to meet and thank her.so will you take me to her house today''asked Aarav with his puppy dog eyes to which Abhi could never say no.
''Okay baba i will take you.But after meeting the doctor''said Abhi and Aarav gave him a nod.
''Akash did you know her address?''asked Abhi looking Akash.
''Haan bhai.Actually i am the one who dropped her in her house yesterday''said Akash.
''Okay.Then just text me her address,i will take Aarav there''said Abhi.
''sure bhai''said Akash and took his mobile and texted Pragya's address to Abhi.
''Thanks Akash i will come home after meeting pragya with Aarav.you can go to the office if you have any work''said Abhi.
''Yea bhai.I have couple of meeting now.I will leave now.see you at home''said Akash and Abhi gave a nod.
''Bye champ see you at home today''said Akash kissing his forehead .
''Okay chachu.Bye''said Aarav and Akash left the room.Once Akash left Abhi looked at his son with a cute face.
''so can we meet the doctor?''asked Abhi to which Aarav nodded with excitement.But Abhi can see his excitement is not about meeting the doctor but meeting pragya.
''Okay then lets go''said Abhi and Aarav jumped off the bed with a smile and both of them left the room hand in hand.
************
Pragya came out of the washroom drying her wet hair in her blue bathrobe and entered her walk in wardobe to take a comforatable dress.After few seconds of looking she changed inot a light blue short and a full slevee T-Shirt and left the wardobe dumping her wet towel and bathrobe in the laundry basket and left to her room.As pragya was about turn on her hair drier to dry her wet hair she heard the sound of calling bell and kept the drier back on the dressing table in confusion who it will be.she got up from the chair and left the room to look who it was.As she came and opened the door she was shocked to find Abhi standing with Aarav beside him.
''Hi Aunty''said Aarav brining pragya from her shock.Pragya looked the small boy standing there and looking her with a cute smile.seeing the little boy's inncocent smile bought a smile on her lips automatically.
''Hi Aarav.what are you doing here beta?''asked pragya kneeling down infront of him with a gentle smile.
''I came here to say thank you for saving me.Thank you aunty''said Aarav in his cute voice.
''Awww you are welcome sweetheart.''said pragya then stood up and looked at Abhi.
''Please come inside''said pragya and Abhi with a nod entered her house with Aarav.Once they reached the living room Aarav looked arouund the house .
''Wow the house is so cool''said Aarav and pragya smiled
''Well thank you beta.I will bring you both something to drink till then have a seat''said pragya looking at the black sofa.
''Its okay pragya we just came to say thank you''said Abhi and pragya was little suprised to see him talking without showing his normal attitude.
''Its okay Mr.Mehra i insist''said pragya and left to the kitchen before Abhi could replay.
After 15 minutes pragya came back with 3 cups on a tray and kept in on the table infront of the sofa and took a glass tumbler which contains hot chocolate.
''Aarav this my special hot chocolate.Try it and tell me how if you like it''said pragya with a smile.
''Wow aunty hot chocolate is my favorite.''said Aarav and took the tumbler from her hand with a bright smile.Then she took a coffee cup and gave it to Abhi which he took with a nod.Then she sat on another sofa opposite to them and started to sip her tea.once they finished the tea pragya looked at Aarav who was just finished the hot chocolate.
''So how was it Aarav?''asked pragya.
''First class aunty.''said Aarav raising him tumb.
''Thank you''said pragya with a smile then Aarav took a small box from his pocket.
''Aunty this is a small thank you gift from me.''said Aarav.
''Beta its okay.Your thank you is enough there is no need for this''said pragya with a smile.
''But aunty i got this especially for you so please don't reject it na''said Aarav with a sad face.Though pragya wanted to protest after her encounters with Abhi which ended ugly pragya didn't have the heart to say no seeing Aarav's sad face.
''Okay i will accept it''said pragya and Aarav smiled .
''yayy.Come on now open it ''said Aarav and pragya took the box from his hand and took the gift cover off the small square box .Then he opened the box only to find a beautiful sliver ring with a balck pearl in the centre of the small flower.
''Aarav its so beautiful''said pragya which made Aarav smile.
''Really?You like it?''asked Aarav with excitement.
''I love it sweetheart.Thanks a lot for such a beautiful gift ''said pragya and kissed Aarav on his cheek.
''Can i put it on your finger?''asked Aarav and pragya gave a nod.Then Aarav took the ring and put in ring finger on her right hand.
''Thanks Aarav its so lovely''said pragya with a smile.Just then the door bell rang and pragya stood up.
''I will be back''said pragya and left the living room.As pragya opened the door she saw a courior boy standing there with a parcel.
''Good morning mam.There is a parcel for Miss.Pragya Arora.''said the boy.
''I am pragya Arora please come inside''said pragya and the boy entered the house and they reached the living room.
''you please wait here i will be back with the cheque''said pragya and left to her room to get the cheque .After few minutes she came back and gave the cheque to the boy and signed the paper he gave her and the boy left.Pragya then kept the parcel on the table and sat with Aarav.
''How are you feeling now Aarav?''asked pragya with concern and care.
''I am fine aunty.I will be good like before in a couple of days''said Aarav and both of them continued to talk while Abhi sat there feeling some strange feeling seeing how much pragya cares for his son.Though he wanted to say its all her acting to get something from him ,he say see the true concern in her innocent eyes.
After talking nearly 30 minutes with pragya Aarav felt the urge to go to the washroom.
''Aunty can i use your bathroom?''asked Aarav.
''Ofcourse beta.come on i will show you''said pragya.
''No aunty i will find it myself.Just tell me the direction''said Aarav and pragya looked at him concern as she didn't want him to get lost or hurt himself.
''Its okay pragya just tell him the direction.He will be fine''said Abhi and pragya gave him a nod.
''Go straight and three room to your left is the bathroom''said pragya and Aarav gave a nod and ran to find the bathroom.As Aarav left Abhi stood up from his place and walked towards pragya and took a paper from his pocket and forwarded to pragya who looked him with confusion.
''Its a blank cheque.you can fill as much as amount you want.''said Abhi and pragya stood up from the couch .
''What for?'asked pragya raising her left eyebrow.
''For saving Aarav''said Abhi and pragya felt the anger boil inside of her as she felt insulted by his action.
''Okay.you fill this yourself and give me''said pragya and Abhi took a pen from his pocket to fill the cheque.
''How much?''asked Abhi.
''Fill the amount on the basic of your love on your son''said pragya and ABhi looked at her sharply.
''why are you looking at me like that Mr.Mehra?I know you can't fill it as you can't fix a price for the love you have for your son right?Like that you can't fix price for everything Mr.Mehra i helped Aarav to save a small boy not for your money,so please keep your money and attitute with yourself''said pragya and Abhi didn't even know how to replay to her question and for the first time Abhi really felt ashamed for something he did.Then he saw pragya who was about to walk away and caught her wrist stopping her.
''Look pragya i am really sorry.I didn't mean to insult or hurt you by my action.I just want to say thanks for saving my son as he is my everything.But i though just my thank you will not be enough for this and especially for a girl.So please don't take me wrong pragya''said Abhi with regret in his voice.Pragya on the other hand could see the truth in his voice,though she wanted to hate him for having these wrong thoughts about girls she can understand that there is a reason for his hate on girls and though of letting it go for now.Then she took a deep breath and looked Abhi.
''Its okay Mr.Mehra.I know there is some reason behind the hate you have on girls,but just understand all the girl or not the same and especially not me''said pragya.
''I know and i am realy sorry.But atleast let me pay for your broken mobile pragya''said Abhi and pragya shook her head negatively .
''No Mr.Mehra there is no need for that as i already got a new one.But if you really want to do something just you thank you is enough''said pragya.
''Thank you pragya.Thanks a lot for saving my son''said Abhi with a smile and pragya smiled back.
''You are welcome Mr.Mehra''said pragya and just then Aarav came back and Abhi left pragya's wrist.
''Okay pragya we will leave now.Its getting late and even i have a meeitng in couple of hours.''said Abhi.
''Okay Mr.Mehra.Take care of yourself and Aarav''said pragya with a smile.
''Sure pragya thanks again for everything and please all me Abhi''said Abhi with a smile.
''Its okay Mr.Me..Abhi''said pragya and then she looked at Aarav.
''Aarav take care of yourself and haan don't be careless like this again okay?''asked pragya with a smile.
''I will aunty.''said Aarav with a smile .
''Can we go Aarav?''asked Abhi looking his son.
''Okay papa''said Aarav with a smile but can see it didn't reach his eyes.
''Bye pragya.''said Abhi and pragya gave a nod.
''Bye Abhi,bye Aarav''said pragya with a smile.
''Bye aunty''said Aarav and they left the house while pragya smiled seeing the right this cute little boy gave her out of pure and innocent love.Pragya just wishes she could know what made Abhi hate girls like this as she can see how much he loves his son and how kind he is to run a orphange which is giving a great life to many children.Though their first two meeting was not good she was glad atleast they became to an understanding.with this thought pragya took the parcel which contained her new HTC ONE mobile and left to her room to talk with purab and Ragav.
Here Abhi who was driving the care was lost in his thoughts about pragya and his son new found bonding with her.Abhi never liked when Aarav talked with strangers and get close to them as he didn't want his son to get hurt like him,but today after seeing the happy face of his son when he was with pragya gave some peace to his heart.He know Aarav will try to meet pragya again as he can see his son already loves her and for the first time Abhi didn't feel any fear for letting pragya inside his son's life.For some strange reason Abhi started to trust Pragya,he didn't know whether its coz she refused to take his money or her true concern for his son.But whatever it is Abhi decided to trust a girl after a long time and hoped she will not break his trust.
*******************
Pragya was laying on her bed in her room lost in the though of yesterdays events where daadi out of blue asked pragya if she can marry Abhi as daadi thought Abhi was smiling more these days coz of her and even Aarav started to love her a lot.After hearing this pragya didn't know what to say and she left the orphanage earlier telling daadi that she needs times to think about it.Tough she can see daadi was little disappointed she then said okay as she understood pragya's feelings too.Once pragya reached home she came directly to her room and laid on the bed thinking about what daadi said.Pragya didn't even know what to do as she never taught of getting married now ,not for next couple of years.But after spending time with Aarav she thought this marriage will be not bad,but thinking of Abhi and his reaction really worried her.In these last weaks pragya noticed Abhi became little friendly with her and she didn't want to lose it or his respect.Then she thought about her papa and brother who will not talk this matter lightly as they can never allow pragya to get married to a man who already has a 5 years okd son as no father or brother will like this for their daughter or sister.Pragya let out a deep breath as she was getting really tensed thinking about it a lot.Just then she heard the calling bell and wondered who it will be as it was already 20 past 10 in the night and left her room to check on her door.Once she reached the living room she walked towards the door and switched on the monitor near the door to see who it was through the secret camera and her eyes widen seeing the person standing on her door and the condition he was in.without wasting any time she opened the door and looked at Abhi who was standing with unsteady legs in drunken state with concern and shock .
