Hey Guys,

I was recently convinced by someone very special indeed that I should write some more part to Andaaz. As I have ended it, I do not plan to resume it but I am going to be writting a few companion pieces to go with the fic, which you may read if you so wish... 😊

PART 1

Prachi stared down at the phone in her hand in disappointment for the umpteenth today. She scarely knew why she tried anymore, it had been years and all she was met with was the constant drone of the dial tone. Prachi did not know how much longer she could stand this but she would have to bear it, not for herself but for him.

Placing the phone back down on the reciever, she sighed softly and stood up off her bed. She checked her bedside clock, it was 3 o'clock and she realised she would be late if she did not make a move now. She went downstairs to inform her mother she was leaving, Premlata asked if she would like her to come along but Prachi had assured her she would be fine alone.

Prachi decided that she would drive the car herself, she was still cautious while driving but she wanted time alone. Today she was feeling especially restless, she didn't know why and her heart felt heavy. She drove faster than she usually liked, but she knew how he felt when she was late. She tried to distract herself and glanced out to her side occasionally, she had a keen eye and would often find herself imagining what she would build in that area if she were given the oppertunity. Prachi's thoughts were often bittersweet when she thought back to what could have been, she did not regret it for a moment but she wished she could have had her career also.

It was not as if her father had not offered her the oppertunity to continue but Prachi was already indebted to him that she did not think she could shoulder the burden of more. Prachi considered that she would have more time now and she was resolved to try again. There were many architectural firms that would no doubt wish to hire Inder Shah's daughter but Prachi did not wish to gain employment unless it was based on her own merit. She was her father's daughter after all and Inder's word was final for Prachi, she respected him above all else and if in life she regretted anything, it would be any disappointment she may cause him.

She checked the time again and cursed herself for letting the time run away with her when she noticed the afternoon traffic. She was nearly there however and she hoped he would forgive her. When she had finally gotten there, she saw that she had made it in the nick of time and quickly got out of the car, pushing past the hoardes of people that had obviously managed to get there before her.

She stood in front of the gates of a large white building and waited for them to open impatiently. As soon as the bell rang, Panchi perked up considerable and pushed her sunglasses up over head as the groundskeeper opened the gates and let them in. Prachi rushed quickly inside the building and went straight to the nursery. Pushing open the large green door, she was followed in by a few other couples and instantly her eyes scanned the room; searching for him. It did not take her long to spot him however, he was the loudest child there and constantly demanding his teacher's attention. Prachi could not hide her smile, she knew that she should do something but his teacher was laughing or else she would have intervened.

She walked up slowly behind him, crouched down and turned him towards her as he became angry at the distruption. Once he had turned however, his small frame jumped up excitedly and beamed down at her, throwing his arms around her neck. Prachi hugged him with equal enthusiasm but gently disentangled his arms from around her neck for fear of being suffocated. She picked him up and once standing, she thanked his teacher and they made their way out.

"Krish baby ne aaj tou kisi ko pareshaan nahi kiya na?" she asked turning to look at him. He did not look amused, instead he put his hands on his hips and pouted. Prachi could not help smile and she knew she was indulging him but he was her one weakness and she was sure he knew this.

"I'm not a baby, I'm 4!" he said adamantly, sticking out three fingers of his pudgy hands towards Prachi's face. Prachi lifted another finger and agreed that yes he was indeed 4.

Prachi carried him to the car and strapped him in, she was not ready to go home just yet. "Krish...aap ko park mein jaana hain?" He could never resist the playing in the park and Prachi wanted to make sure that he was integrated with other children his age as much as possible. Prachi was confused that Krish often played alone and other children found it difficult to be overshadowed in his loud presence and so avoided playing with him. He was, however a great favourite with adults who were easily won over by his happy nature and constant chatter.

The park was busy with parents bringing their children to play after school, Prachi took Krish and headed towards the play area. She hoped that seeing all the children would encourage Krish to try and make friends; Prachi had explained many times to him that he must play fair but he was not a patient child and did not understand why other children were not like him. Once Krish spotted the swings, he let go of Prachi's hand and ran towards them quickly. Prachi let him go, but kept a constant watch over him.

Krish seemed content to play by himself but Prachi noticed a small figure approaching him, she stood up a little straighter, watching him. It was a little girl, she guessed that the girl must be around Krish's age and hoped he would not scare her away too. The little girl was beautiful with long curly hair, if slightly weak looking. The girl stood calmly besides the swing Krish was on and waited for him to get off; Prachi noted that his movements had slowed down considerably and he had almost halted to a stop, perhaps her talks with him had worked. Prachi could not believe her eyes when she actually saw Krish stop and get off the swing, offering it to the girl. The girl sat down and Prachi was further surprised when Krish began to swing her.

In her surprise, Prachi let out an involuntary murmur but she was unaware of somebody standing next to her. "Kitna pyaara bacha hain na?" said a small female voice beside her and Prachi turned to her. She saw a young woman, who was also looking at Krish and the little girl with as much fondness as she was. "Haan...Krish itni asaani se dost nahi baanata..." Prachi replied, though why she was confiding these things in a complete stranger, she hardly knew, but there was something inviting about the young woman.

"Hamari Shreya bhi...bauhat chup chaap raheti hain..." She young woman started, then noticing the look on Prachi's face she extended a hand and introduced herself, "Oh I'm sorry, maine aapna parichein bhi nahi kiya...I'm Sukriti..."

"Prachi..." she replied, smiling.

After the initial introductions, they had managed to talk for the hour that the children played; Prachi was glad to have come here today. Not only had Krish managed to make a friend, she had perhaps gained one herself.
