Part 10Siddhant POV:
I felt soft lips on my cheeks & wake up...
When i opened my eyes... beautiful face in front of my eyes...
Yes.. Roli was looking into my eyes and we had eye lock for a while...
She blushed and down her eye lids driving me crazy...
I looked at her pinky lips and gently pressed my lips on her lips...
She hide her on my shoulder...
OMG... Morning cant be better than this...
After being enjoying the closeness for a while i realised need of taking her to her grand mother...
'Roli... Shall we get ready & go to meet your grand mother???' i asked...
'Will they accept me???' she asked...
'Dont worry Roli... i am there for taking care of that.. ' i assure her...
She got up and sat in the bed while i sat beside her...
Roli... Are you ok???' i asked seeing her tensed face...
She lean on my shoulder again...
'I am afraid...' she said...
'Look at me Roli...' i said...
I hold her chin and lift her face...
'You trust me right...' i asked...
'Yes i do... more than anyone in this world...' she said...
'Then leave it to me... i will take care.. even if your grand mother wont accept you... i am there for you...' i assured her again...
She smiled and nod her head as acceptance...
'Lets get ready...' i said and got down from the bed...
In a while we both got ready in our rooms and came out of our rooms...
We went to kitchen and had sandwich for breakfast...
Then i took my car and we started...
After an hour of drive we reached a bungalow...
Yes.. its her grand mother bungalow...
I parked the car in the parking lot and got down from the car...
She got down from the car and looked at me...
I can see still her tensed face and hold her hand gently as a gesture of support...
We entered into the house while her grand mother was sitting in the hall looking into the news paper...
'Good morning Mrs. Divedi...' i said...
'Good morning Siddhant... What a pleasure of meeting you this morning...' she asked...
'Its my pleasure... So how are you doing...' i enquired and by now we reached the sofa...
'Yes.. i am fine... have your seat...' she said and offered me to sit...
Her grand mother looked from head to toe at Roli...
Some strange expression on her face...
'Siddhant... I never seen you bringing any girl friend to my home...' she said...
'Girl friend!!! Mrs. Divedi.. Look at her well...' i said with a smile...
She sharpen her eyes to look at her...
'I have seen her...Who is this???' she asked...
'Think well... you know her...' i pushed hard to make her remember...
I looked at Roli & there was a strange fear on her face...
Also can see some sort of pain on her eyes...
Of course when her own grand mother is not able to identify her...
Her grand mother think for a while...
'Is she... Jamanlal's daughter...' her grand mother now remembered and asked in surprise widening her eyes...
'Yes Mrs. Divedi.. you got it... ' i said...
'What is she doing here??? She was living with her mother's relative right...' she said...
'Yes she was... now its time for her to live with her father's relative...; i said...
'What do you mean Siddhant...' she asked...
'Her grand mother died who was taking care of her... thats why i bring her here...' i said...
'Oh... so what you want me to do in this bringing her to my house...' she asked...
I can see Roli closing her eyes to control her feelings...
'Mrs. Divedi.. she is your grand daughter if you want me to remind you.. Sorry...' i said...
'Is it not strange you are introducing her to me after all these years.. i think almost after 16 years...' she said...
'Yes it is.. but its not that it cant be changed...' i said...
'What can change when i lost my only son in all these...' she said..
'But you got your grand daughter though lost your son... i think you can accept your grand daughter...' i said...
'Of course she is the only heir of all these properties.. she can enjoy everything... what else she want...' she asked...
'She didn't came here looking for your properties Mrs. Divedi.. she came here looking for the love of grand mother...' i said...
'I dont think i cant help out in this...' she said...
'Mrs. Divedi.. tell me what is the hesitation you have in accepting her...' i asked...
'I am no longer young to bear any more pain...' she said...
"What pain you are talking about???' i asked...
'Siddhant... you know what was myself & my husband going through when Jamanlal left us and went with her mother...' she said with tears...
'Mrs Divedi.. dont cry.. console yourself...' i said...
'We have gone through so much pain and we handled it as we were young.. now i dont have anyone to even hold me if she gives any more pain.. i am tired myself...' she said...
'I wont give any pain to you grand ma...' Roli said...
Her grand mother went still hearing her calling grand ma...
