How can shyam kill his own child? He is worse than an animal.

Ch37

My daughter.

"daddy , what place is this ? where have you brought me ?this doesn't look like home ,you said you will take me to your home and then we will call ma also there."Aashi said looking around the old warehouse where shyam had brought her.

"aasi , the house is nearby right now I am waiting for someone." He said impatiently looking at his watch, there were only ten minutes left to complete an hour. .he was irritated by aashi's questions.

"daddy , where is ma ? I am hungry."she shook his shirt. "I wanted to see cake in la's marriage, you know it is her marriage with niall uncle today."

"stop talking I am waiting for your kusi aunty. When will se(she) come ,so I can send your blabbering mouth back." Shyam scoffed.

"mum , mum is coming here! Good! Because elephants are playing football in my tummy." she said patting her stomach making shyam roll his eyes.

"For god's sake will you stop talking , irritating girl!"he said in a very loud voice scaring her. She was a very sweet child so no one had ever shouted on her so.

She started sobbing " you you are bad, you are not my daddy! You are bad uncle you shout on me!!!"

"yes , yes I am bad you want to see how bad I am !"he said angrily and slapped aashi making her fall to the ground. she hurt her knee and started crying.

He took out his belt to whip her " like mother , like daughter , so irritating , crying for no reason!"

"Aashiii" khushi shrieked from the entrance of the warehouse . she ran towards aashi and held her crying self in her arms.

"are you fine baby , don't worry, mum is here ."she patted her back.

"aah kusi , I am so glad you are here , just on time , this piece of **** was ransacking my brains , just like her mother had." Said shyam in a menacing tone .

She looked at him angrily and rose up to his height.

"how dare you try to do something to that little girl?"she slapped him hard.

Shyam held his cheek and looked vengefully holding khushi's wrists dragging her to the wall.

" that day ASR had saved you , today who shall save you from me !" he said tightening his grip on her wrists making the beads from her bracelet fall to the ground.

Arnav came from behind and caught hold of shyam's collar and banged him to a nearby desk. Niall held shyam after slapping him as arnav punched into his stomach.

Lavanya went to khushi and held her asking if she was fine and Anjali went and held a scared aashi kissing her all over her face .khushi and lavanya also joined her and all four had a group hug.

Shyam had fallen unconscious by then so arnav and niall also joined them in the hug.

Arnav had called for the police to arrest shyam ,they had already arrested his mother as Anjali had given her statement against her.

They all were walking back happily towards the exit. Anjali was walking holding aashi's hand when suddenly a huge rod came and banged her head . she fell down to the ground and in one swift movement shyam caught hold of aashi. Khushi at first screamed "Anjali"and bent to her but then she saw him taking away aashi and ran towards him but she tripped over her gown .lavanya held Anjali in her lap who seemed to have gone unconscious.

"stop ! if you take one step even ahead towards me , I will kill this girl ." he said pointing a gun towards aashi's head.

Arnav and niall were helpless now they didn't want him to hurt aashi.

Suddenly the warehouse shook with the echo of two gun shots through the room. The bullet had pierced directly through shyam's forehead killing him. Everyone watched agape towards the direction from where the gun shot had come.

Anjali had stood up ,her head bleeding vigorously. Her whole body was swaying ,her grey flowered gown covered with her own blood while she was taking shallow breaths. Yet her arms were straight and her aim went perfect.

" nobody gets to harm my daughter, nobody." she said in a hoarse voice and immediately fell to the ground.

Everybody rushed to Anjali to bring her to conscious. Niall called for an ambulance as khushi and arnav consoled a crying aashi.

Police sirens rang through the place, they took away shyam's dead body and came with them to the hospital.

****************

Khushi slightly patted aashi on her back ,who was sleeping keeping her head on arnav's chest. Aashi had been crying for more than two hours before she got tired and fell asleep. She had not even eaten anything since morning.

Shyam had been officially declared dead and the police had taken everybody's statements except Anjali who was inside the operation theatre.

"where did she get the gun from ?"the inspector enquired.

"I think it was shyam's only , it was just lying there and she caught hold of it." Niall answered.

"do not worry mr. kennedy , there shall be minimum or no charges put on miss Anjali as it was a case of self defence .moreover shyam jha and his mother are criminals , so there are chances she might even win prize money or compensation" the police officer said putting a hand over niall's shoulder.

Lavanya was sitting beside khushi and arnav holding her head thinking what an ugly day the most beautiful day of her life had turned .thank god that villain shyam was dead and aashi was safe but what about Anjali?

"that would be if she would stay alive , sir"

Everybody turned towards the doctor who was coming from the operation theatre, removing his blood clad gloves.

" what ...what do you mean , doctor?"khushi asked in a hesitating voice .

" I am sorry .we wont be able to save her ."the doctor sighed.

" how can you be so cold ? what do you mean by you couldn't save her! Who gave you your degree?" lavanya screamed in frustration.

Niall came and held her shoulders while she hid her face in the crook of his neck. Niall made an apologizing expression towards the doctor.

"it's alright , I understand it must be difficult for you guys. The head injury was too severe to be healed . the rod cracked her cranium( the top of the head) and directly hit her brain . it is a surprise that even after the hit she stood up and had the power to aim and shoot. I don't think she shall survive now for more than an hour or so and all of her cerebrospinal fluid has drained and half of her organs have stopped working .yet you can go and meet her , she is on oxygen and yet shows some motor movements."

Oui oui what an action filled scene , my hands are paining!!!

Tell me what do you think shall happen next?

Two more to go...

I was thinking to give a spin off to phir se can u think what shall I spin??

Ch38

Khushi held her mouth with the flowing edge of her gown and ran out of the hospital. She stood under a canopy and slumped down and cried out holding her face in her palms.

She replayed her conversation with Anjali inside the ICU in her mind.

*************

The police officer recorded the statement he needed and came out with his cap in his hand.

" um...who of you all is khushi , ms.anjali has requested to meet her in alone."

Khushi got up from her seat , nodded at the police officer and went inside the ICU.

Anjali was covered from head to toe with various needles connecting her to various machines. The ECG machine beeped in slow motion on her right showing that her heartbeat was pretty slow.

Khushi became scared at this sight. Anjali's body was covered with a white bed sheet till her chest. Her fingers were clipped to some wires. Her hair was nowhere to be seen. Her head had been covered with huge white bandages which showed clear red stains of blood.

" come here khushi" Anjali called her in a slow voice.

It was unbearable for khushi to see her chirpy friend in this state . anjali noticed this and said " I don't regret dying khushi , except for one thing , my aashi." Anjali slowly sighed.

" no Anjali don't die , aashi needs you!" khushi pleaded holding her hands. Over these 3 years both of them had developed a sisterly bond.

" khushi! What has to happen shall happen ! please, I want to die in peace .please make me a promise to give my burning soul some rest . I don't want aashi to ever be alone . please become her mother. She has no one except you now. I know I am being selfish right now and loading my girl's responsibility over you but..."

" no buts Anjali , of course she is my daughter" khushi cried.

" thank you khushi .but promise me you wont take this as an excuse to not fulfil what you said today morning " Anjali said slightly smilingly.

" what did I say Anjali?" khushi scrunched her eyebrows.

" arre you forgot so soon you had decided to take your relationship forward with arnav . don't let my aashi become a barrier to that decision of yours, if you only wont be happy then how will you keep others happy . don't let aashi see me now .promise me khushi, promise me!" Anjali painfully said .

Khushi placed her palm on anjali's tearfully and smiled to her softly.

Anjali then gave a satisfied smile and breathed her last. She was content that aashi was now in safe hands.

Khushi cried a lot and ran out of the room.

******************

Khushi sat with her head down ,covering her face with her palms , mourning over the death of her friend. She remembered all the moments they had spent together like making aashi's birthday cake , gathering ideas for her fancy dress competition, going shopping together and what not! But today that lively friend of hers was lifeless!

She felt a hand strolling through her hair and looked upwards.

"arnav" she said in her broken voice and hugged his waist tightly.

" I need to fulfil anjali's promise , I am aashi's mum , I need to take care of her." She said in a broken voice.

Arnav bent down to her and said

" you need to , aashi needs you the most right now , go khushi! Aashi is sleeping on the hospital bench. Be her mum."

"I am scared arnav would I be able to fulfil such big responsibility." She spoke really scared.
"I know khushi, I know that my khushi can do anything in this world, she has will power. I trust you in that. Do you trust my words.?"

Khushi nodded.

" then go support your daughter."Khushi and arnav got up and khushi ran towards the door to get aashi.

Arnav smiled slightly as she left.

*********************

4 months later...

Khushi was all alone in her apartment with a sleeping aashi. Lavanya had shifted to niall's apartment down the road and they would meet frequently and talk a lot.

Khushi's father had gone back to india to go on a pilgrimage with his some relative after blessing khushi and aashi to live happily.

After knowing that Anjali was dead , aashi had cried a lot but khushi consoled her explaining her that all dead people become stars , gods most favourite people so that they can see their children from up above and be with them always. Aashi being the inquisitive child she was gaped at the starlit sky and pointed towards the pole star and waved at it. Then she hugged khushi and called her mumma making her release tears of joy.

The web series project had got over. Arnav had packed his bag to go back to London. All these weeks he had always been there for khushi and aashi. He had grown to be very fond of aashi and was very compassionate towards her. The three would often have dinner together.

As arnav filled his baggage into the taxi , khushi came with a solemn face towards him.

"hmm...you are going ? now? "

Arnav nodded.

" um...come inside with me na one second" khushi said holding his hand leading him to the corridor where aashi was standing.

Khushi bent down to her knees making aashi giggle and arnav scrunch his eyebrows in confusion.

Khushi nervously smiled

"since the past five years you have been occupying my thoughts ASR , and I have thought about it that I need your thought to remain alive so will you remain in my thoughts forever!" khushi said really fast like a parrot making aashi burst out laughing.

"your thought ,my thought? Is this some toungue twister or something .i didn't understand a word!" arnav said.

" oh smartypants didn't understand , what a fool !"khushi teased him.

" what the !"

" arre ASR , mumma is asking that will you be my papa !" aashi said happily.

"huh?"

" yes , I am aashi's mumma now so I and aashi were thinking what about give you a promotion from mumma's friend to mumma's husband ie aashi's papa. So tell me ASR , deal accepted?" khushi asked smiling widely.

Arnav looked on blankly and turned his back towards them both disappointing them.

Khushi got up disheartened taking the action as he doesn't want her in his life anymore and made a sad face and lifted aashi in her arms and moved backwards.

" hey wait where are you both going ?"arnav stopped them from behind.

" what is left you are going ASR. ...you don't want to be papa " aashi turned back and frowned.

" let me call aman to book your tickets to London ."

"means you are fine with it "khushi smiled and aashi clapped her hands in joy.

"yes , khushi I too want a life ahead with you and if you don't have any problem with it then you are already mine. Fate always made us meet even though we separated so many times . this means we were meant to be together, as for aashi come to papa , little girl!" arnav smiled to her. Aashi leaped into arnav's arms from khushi's arms and he pulled both of them into a warm embrace.

He had never been so content with life ever before , this was the best day. He had his khushi and a chirpy little baby just like his khushi , what more could he ask for?

There were back like before , phir se.

This was the last chapter of phir se .an epilogue shall be posted soon .

I want all of you to tell me how has it been , best scene!

EPILOGUE

5 years later...

Khushi is running around the house with a small tshirt in her hands.

Aashi came in to the hall with a pencil in her hands.

" mumma , are you racing with aru?"

" no , he ran away from the bathroom after I forcedly bathed him. He is roaming in the house with only his chaddi on . he will catch cold. Aashi , baby try to catch him na." khushi spoke as she panted for breath.

Aashi nodded and checked behind each and every curtain to find her baby brother. He was just three years old but was very naughty. He kept khushi on her toes always.

Aashi went towards the room on her right .it was a quite large room , with white walls and navy blue curtains.

The walls were decorated with photo frames . one of arnav and khushi's childhood where khushi was making a funny face towards the camera while arnav pulled one of her ponytails.

Another photo in a square frame was of arnav's parents with him and khushi.

Another photo was of khushi's father ,shashi with them both on either side.

An adjacent photo was of the day before lavanya's wedding where like a family arnav, khushi , lavanya , niall , Anjali and aashi were standing and posing.

The last photo was from the hospital where khushi was on the hospital bed holding a day old arush in her arms, looking towards arnav while he was kissing arush's forehead and aashi was smiling towards the camera sitting beside the bed.

There was a black ebony table and chair at the left side of the room where the most loved person of her life sat. her papa!

Above the table was a huge photo , hung on the wall.

Arnav , dressed in a black three piece suit, smiling, one hand on their daughter , aashi .while his other arm was held by khushi who had her other arm on their son, arush who was wearing a suit matching to arnav's. khushi was wearing a red coloured saree gown and aashi had worn a red princess frock.

" papa , have you seen aaru? Mumma has been searching for him for quite a while ." aashi chirped keeping her hand on arnav's shoulder.

Arnav looked upwards to aashi and adjusted his specs

" aaru ? no he didn't come into this room."He said glancing towards the table .

Aashi bent down and saw little arush , hiding under the table , covering his eyes with his tiny palms and giggling.

" peek a boo little devil, I caught you , come on wear your shirt." Aashi said grabbing his arms.

Arush gave a wide naughty smile and caught aashi's hair

"no you no caught aru , aru caught di"

Aashi screamed " leave my hair aru"

Arnav bent and picked up arush freeing aashi's hair from his fist.

" no no " he showed his finger to arush " good boys don't pull girl's hair"

" accha , I think somebody should have taught you that mr. arnav singh raizada. Have you forgotten , how you used to pull my poor hair, my poor braids would pain as if they would come off." Khushi said leaning by the door running her hand through her hair.

Arnav left arush down and said "your hair would pain because they are weak , not like my aashi's hair strong and silky . clinic plus right" he said like if he was endorsing aashi's shampoo brand.

Khushi hmphed as arush approached her taking baby steps.

"stop I am not talking to a shirtless baby, wear your shirt then I will talk to you." She said sternly showing her fingers to arush.

" mumma , me saman kan."He said with a cute lisp.

"yes khushi you enjoy seeing salman khan shirtless then ,why not my son , come little boy I will make you wear a shirt." Arnav said picking arush up again.

" what the ! you are trying to steal my son!I shall not spare you ASR." Saying that she pounced over him and took arush in her arms.

" mumma likes you with your shirt on better, salman khan is a second choice , and your papa is third. come we will make you wear your shirt. " she said making a face towards arnav and left the room.

"what the, khushi ! really salman khan?" arnav exclaimed while aashi continued giggling.

**************

At night , after khushi put aashi and arush to sleep she proceeded towards her room . she remembered all those years that she had spent with arnav .

5 years ago she had left for London with arnav and aashi , her father had returned back to Allahabad devoting his life to the temple after going on a pilgrimage with his relative. Lavanya and niall now had a four year old daughter and occasionally she visited her.

Arnav and khushi were enjoying their marital bliss again with an additional joy , aashi this time. and some time later, they were joined by their little naughty arush .

Arush was just like arnav and khushi's lost childhood. They never even thought about indrani again. They were happy with each other always fighting and teasing each other but at the end arnav would apologize as he couldn't bear to see khushi's tears.

And now her angrez lard governer was angry with her and she had to now console him. She said that salman khan is in her favourite list above mr. grumpy pants. And arnav singh raizada the great has become angry again , phir se .

But after what she will tell him now he will become happy again like before , phir se!

She entered their room and chirpily called out to arnav.

Seeing that he is not in the room, she frowned . she heard the sound of the shower and realized that he is inside the bathroom.

Then she smiled brightly as an amazing idea struck across her little head . she ran towards the drawer near her bed side and removed some papers from there. Her face shone like a LED bulb looking at them . she heard the bathroom door clicking and ran to keep the papers on arnav's study table. She knew he would go there first.

She went and pretended to be asleep on the bed.

Arnav came into the room and saw her sleeping .he put his hands on his waist and hmphed.

He went towards his study table to read the minutes of his previous meetings when his eyes suddenly fell on the bunch of papers kept near his files. He scrunched his face wondering what they were.

His expressions changed into joy as he read through the papers .

They were test reports confirming khushi's pregnancy.

He felt her engulfing him into a hug from behind . he held her hands as she said slowly

"I am sorry. You are certainly more important to me than salman khan."

" baby , phir se ?"

"um hmm" khushi nodded as he gave her a big hug and their hug was everlasting this time.

This is a happy beginning...
