Heavy Heir
Prologue ' Part One
March 5th, 1984
City Hospital, Mumbai
Uday Walia paced the corridor to and front until an infant's cry was heard from inside. He stopped and looked toward the operation theatre. By the look of his face, it was hard to judge if he was happy or not, disturbed or not. After a few moments, the doctor came and smiled to him, "Congratulations Mr Walia. You just had a baby boy! And he's too cute for words. I bet you want to meet your new bundle of joy. It'll take us only 20 minutes to present your baby to you."
Uday smiled nervously, "And Gayitri? Is she alright?"
The doctor smiled faintly, "She'll do alright, but she's weak. She's a lot stressed that's why. But don't worry. If you take good care of her, she'll be healthy in no time."
The doctor offered another brilliant smile and left. Uday stood there torn between emotions, one part of him wanted to go and take his child in his arms, another was worried sick; how Krishna is going to react!
Uday Walia, the founder chairman of Walia Estate is on his early 50s. he was living a happy life with his wife Krishna, their daughter Jigyasa and his millions worth business; until the day his mistress Gayitri announced that she's pregnant. One part of him wanted to abandon her, another wanted to ask her abort but he couldn't just do it.
After Jigyasa's born, Krishna was declared to be unable to conceive again. But Uday would've happy with only one child if she was worth that. Jigyasa was completely spoilt by her mother, though she wasn't bad at heart, her immature thinking, and spoilt behavior, irresponsible personality freaked Uday out. In many afternoons, he's just sat thinking what will happen to his huge empire once he's gone. Who'll take these responsibilities? Certainly not Jigyasa.
That's when he longed for a child. Boy or girl, just a child whom he'd bring up as his wish, whom Krishna can't spoil like Jigyasa. That's the sole reason; he couldn't bring himself to look away from the child Gayitri was offering him. Gayitri has been his mistress for long, and his wife knew about it. She didn't leave him for the sake of Jigyasa and her habit of living a wealthy life. So she pretended that she doesn't know. But when the news of the upcoming child came, Krishna took it as a blow. She created havoc at home and left home with Jigyasa.
Uday saw the nurse bringing the small bundle on her hands, he cursed the nurse inwards, Can't she see that he's small? Why is she holding him with such roughness? Alas! Uday never knew that roughness is all that's stored for his son.
He carefully took his son in his arms and looked at the angelic face. A tear drop fell automatically from his eyes. God is strange! He thought, you can never guess in which form he sends you happiness. Touching his son's small nose, he whispered, "Son, I don't know what your father can give you in this life, but I bless you that you win all your hardships and always come as the winner, I name you Jai, son."
As if realizing he was in his father's arm for the first time, Jai opened his eyes. His father just looked in wonder at his big, chocolate brown eyes which were unusually bright for a new born. Uday kissed his forhead lovingly and said, "you are the symbol that will show me that what a disgusting person I am, I cheated on my wife mercilessly, wronged my daughter and I am also doing injustice to your mother. But I'll try my best to see you just as my son, nothing else. If I fail, please my son, forgive me."
....................
Krishna looked at her daughter who complained bitterly about the lack of cool in the small house. She was in her father's old house. Why blame Jigyasa, she herself was feeling uncomfortable. Her heart filled in disgust for the woman who dared to come between her and her husband. Anger crept in her mind for that bloody child that came in this earth to destroy her home, her daughter's life. After being married for 19 years, that's what she get from her husband?
Suddenly she saw the image of her husband, finally marrying Gayitri and living happily with her and their son, the dirty blooded son they created. She felt a rage so much that she crushed the glass in her hand. She's not going to let this happen, this is her life, her daughter's right. With a spur of moment Uday can't give all these to that wh*** and their illegal son.
She called Walia Mansion and called for a car. When it reached, she was already packed along Jigyasa. Dropping Jigyasa in WM, she went toward the hospital.
......................
Uday touched sleeping Gayitri's face and stood in silence. He remembered his earlier conversation with Krishna. She clearly said that she was ready to come back to his life if he let Gayitri and his son go and never meet them in the future. Uday has pleaded to her, "Punish me, but what's his fault? He doesn't even know anything. He's an innocent infant, please Krishna don't punish him, you punish me." that's when Krishna said that he can keep Jai with him if he never ever meets Gayitri and Jai has to go to boarding school from age 6. Though, he was hesitant, Uday knew that he can't have any better solution now.
.......................
Gayitri got up to find that her reason of living was gone. She was already too much stressed and weak. She tried to contact Uday but failed. She went crazy for her son whom she hasn't even seen once. The doctors tried to calm her down but nothing happened. Gayitri heaved the last breath of her miserable life two days later.
August 10, 1987
Walia Mansion, Mumbai
Jigyasa sat in the couch giggling on the phone with her fianc' Aditya. She was hearing a constant noise from upstairs. Suddenly, she heard a child's cry and she hurriedly said bye to Aditya and ran towards her mother's room. What she saw took her breath away. Her mother was slapping Jai on his back, poor kid was crying like anything. Jigyasa quickly went in the middle and took Jai in her arms.
"Ma! What's wrong with you? You are again hitting him? For heavens, he's just a child." She tried to pacify Jai who was crying loudly now.
"You don't know what he is Jigyasa! You are always taking his side, one day he'll dump you, don't ever keep a cobra as a pet'.you'll give him love and he'll bit you one day!" Krishna retorted.
Jigyasa rolled her eyes, "Ma, you've gone sick! He's a child, he's 3 years old Ma! How could you do this to him?"
Jigyasa left with Jai leaving a fuming Krishna behind who cursed Jai mercilessly, "for you, even my own daughter is against me today."
May13th, 1990
Jai's school, Mumbai
He came down like the other students, but unlike them there was no one waiting for them. Oh, there was, there was a car waiting for them with the driver. He went steadily toward it not looking at the other children. In this age of 6, he very well knew that his life is not like the other kids. One of the reasons was that his Mom doesn't love him. Weird, he thought, Moms are supposed to love their children.
As he walked to the car he heard clearly some women talking. He was now old enough to know that they were talking about him'
"Isn't it Walia's boy?" one of them said.
"Let me see'..oh yes'..it's him, he's too young though, Jigyasa; the eldest Walia child has 1 years old son now" another said.
"I heard he's illegal, is it true?" the first one asked again.
"You don't know? Everyone knows that he's Walia's illegal child, the one he had with his mistress Gayitri."
Jai quietly got into the car wondering what "illegal child" means.
May 14th 1990
Walia Mansion, Mumbai
"How are you son?" Uday asked him sincerely. Jai looked at him and nodded his head, "I'm fine Dad."
"Jai, I'm going to tell you something''," Uday hesitated for a moment, "from this year you'll start your boarding school."
"What is a boarding school?" Jai asked.
"It is a school, son. But you'll live there all the time. You will only come home during vacations."
"Ok." Jai replied shortly and kept looking at his father.
Uday looked at him worried, for a 6 year old boy, Jai talks exceptionally less. He rarely mingles with other children and stays as far possible from Krishna. Uday sighed; he's asked Krishna to punish him when Jai was born. And she's punishing him in the worst possible way. Krishna was always mean to Jai and she didn't allow Uday to meet him much. She told him that it was his punishment that he won't meet Jai. Even the servants seem to avoid him, mainly to save themselves from their Madam's wrath.
Jai's only ally in the whole house was Jigyasa. She loved him from his childhood. She started taking care of Jai when her mother forbade her to go near Jai. It was her idea of fun, to be disobedient. But, later she really started caring for him. But from the time Jigyasa has married Aditya and moved with him, Jai was completely alone. He was not even allowed to sit with the family on meal times. For him being sick was a sin, Uday watched with piercing pain in his heart that his own son roamed around his house lawn, trying to make friends with birds or rabbits ' he was so deprived of love that just for a loving look at him, just for a caring pat on his back, he behaved like a destitute.
Seeing his father quiet Jai asked timidly, "Do I have to eat boiled fish there as well Dad?"
Uday looked up with a shocked expression, "Why are you asking this son?"
He remained quiet for sometime and said, "That tastes like rubber Dad, I hate it."
Uday bit his lips to control his tears. Jai sat there for sometime and then got up to leave. Reaching in the door he asked, "Dad, what's an illegal child?"
Uday felt like someone has slapped him across the face.
That night when Uday enquired his wife about Jai's diet she said, "It's healthy for him". That night, Uday stayed up till late at night and cried his heart out sitting in the lawn, when he finally got up he glanced toward Jai's room and found him standing in the balcony, his hands folded on top of the railing and his face on top of his hands. He was staring at the stars.
He didn't need to speak of his miseries. He didn't need to speak of his pain. To whom God has given those eyes, they don't need to speak to express their feelings.

So, let me know how was that....😆😆
