Ishita was looking down feeling guilty when Toshiji said again -no need to be sad puttar, tu hai hi itni sundar ki koi bhi tere liye pagal ho jaaye. Yeh toh hamare puttar ki kismat hai that he got u. She said making ishita smile softly.
Toshiji -yeh hui naa baat, bas tu muskurati reh, Sab kuch thik ho jayega. She said and then asked raman -tune kya socha hai puttar.
Raman was about to say something when Mr bhalla said-i think we should call police commissioner first, he will help us better in this.
Raman -i was also thinking same, Maine kuch security company bhi shortlist ki hai, I think we should keep atleast two guards with each family member. Aap ko kya lagta hai papa.
Mr bhalla -not sure much about this, kyunki usne waiter ke dress mein tumhe poison diya tha, guards will not do anything for it.
Raman -woh toh hai, but guards dekh kar woh directly himmat nahi kar paayega. Aur baaki inn sab cheezon ke liye only our smartness and conscious can work.
Mr bhalla -ok let us think, kya kiya jayega, first let me call police commissioner, I will tell him to arrest that moron. Agar woh arrest ho gaya toh hamari problem bahut kam ho jayegi, but if they couldn't catch him, tab hume jyada alert rehna hoga. He said to which all nodded.
Toshiji -par bachche, unhe kaise samjhayenge. They will ask why we r not sending them to school.
Raman -they will go to school.
Mr bhalla -yeh kya keh rahe ho raman, hum bachcho ko kaise bhej sakte hai.
Raman -we will send them to school, infact everyone will go to their work. Uss rudra ki wajah se koi apna kaam bandh nahi karega, we all will show him that we r not afraid of him. Bas hume thoda saavdhaan rehna hoga. I will make adi rooh understand.
Mr bhalla -what u will make them understand.
Raman -i will tell them the truth.
All got shocked hearing this and Toshiji said -yeh tu kya keh raha hai raman. Unn logon ko sach batayega.
Raman -haan maa.
Ishita-nahi raman, woh darr jayenge.
Raman -no they will not. Infact they will help us in tackling this problem.
Ishita -papa ji, appa, aap dono hi raman ko samjhaiye. Adi rooh bachche hai.
Mr bhalla -i think raman is right puttar, kabhi kabhi bachche badon se jyada brave hote hai. He said and told Raman to go ahead.
Raman got up and was going to adiru's room when ishita too walked behind him and said stopping him-ek baar phir soch lijiye Raman.
Raman -maine soch liya hai jaan. Saying so he was going when ishita hold Raman's hand and asked again -is it necessary to tell about rudra to the kids.
Raman -yes it's very necessary.
Ishita -woh log darr nahi jayenge.
Raman nodded in no and said -hamare bachche kamzor nahi hai, they r very brave and smart also. And we have to tell them about the danger they could face, baaki toh hum hai hi unhe protect karne ke liye.
Ishita -ek baar phir soch lijiye.
Raman -u trust me naa.
Ishita nodded in yes.
Raman -then let me handle this my way.
Ishita nodded and raman went inside and saw adiru playing together. Both smiled seeing raman and ran to him saying, papa.
Raman picked adiru in his arms and said -kahani sunoge. Today I am here to tell u a story of a princess and a devil.
Adi -aap stoly sunane aaye ho papa.
Raman nodded and both the kids got happy. Both settled on the couch to hear the story while Raman sat on the couch to tell them the story or say their problem.
Raman -once there was a princess, bahut sundar, ekdum mumma jaisi.
Adiru smiled and said -mumma plincess.
Raman -haan mumma jaisi sundar princess, she has a beautiful family, her loving husband and two cute kids, bilkul mere adiru jaise. She was very happy in her family but one day a devil came into their life.
Adiru made a scared face and said -devil, papa.
Raman -haan devil, he want to take away the princess from her family.
Ruhi -phil kya hua papa, woh devil plincess ko le gaya.
Raman -aap batao, agar uss princess ki jagah aapki mumma ko koi devil lene aayega toh kya Aap mumma ko jaane denge.
Ruhi -nahi papa, hum kichi devil ko mumma le jaane nahi denge. Woh toh hamali mumma hai naa, toh woh kyun le jayega.
Adi -main toh devil ko Ek zol ka punch maalunga. Tab woh devil dall kal bhaag jayega.
Raman smiled and said -hume yahin karna hai bachchon. Ek devil tumhari mumma ke peeche pad gaya hai, we have to save ur mumma from him. Hum mumma ko kahin nahi jaane denge, OK.
Adiru nodded and adi asked -woh dekhne mein kaisa hai papa.
Ruhi -laavan jaicha, papa.
Raman -nahi bachchon, raavan toh tumhare papa hai. Woh toh ek mamuli saa devil hai. Aur woh dekhne mein bhi bilkul simple hai. U two have to be cautious of him. Tum dono ko pata hai kya karna hai.
Adiru nodded in no.
Raman -i will tell u, at first u two have to be very good kids. I will send u school with two uncles, u guys have to be always close to them. Aur kisi ke saath bhi tiffin share mat Karna, hamesha Ek dusre ke saath rehna and if u feel any problem u have to call papa asap.
Adi -pal hamale paach toh phone hai hi nahi.
Raman -that I will give u.
Ruhi -but papa, hamale ishcool mein phone allowed nahi hai.
Raman -that I will take care of, u just have to be together and alert. Agar hum mein se kisi ko bhi devil ne hurt kar diya naa toh mumma ko uske saath jaana padega, so we have to keep ourselves safe to keep mumma safe, Samjhe Aap dono.
Adiru nodded and look at ishita who was standing on the door with teary eyes.
Adiru walked to ishita and signalled her to sit. She sat to their level.adiru wiped her tears and said -aap sad mat ho mumma, adi luhi devil ko aapko le jaana nahi denge. Hum chab apna take cale kalenge. Aul devil se jeet jayenge.
Ishita nodded and hugged them tight crying while adiru was wiping her tears again and again. Raman talked to them and wrapped his arms around his family and said -aur papa bhi toh hai, uss devil ko punch maarne ke liye. He said and pecked their foreheads while they snuggled into him.
