Chapter 1
It had been 5 years since Armaan had left Poddar Mansion & Firm.He had moved into another world with his wife and his mother Shivani.While they still lived in Udaipur,they were worlds away from the Poddars.While started from being a mechanic,Armaan had been back into the world of law establishing his own firm : The North Star.And once that fell into its place the rest started as well.Armaan had collaborated with Dev Shekhawat for his firm.Armaan had been grumpy when Dev had first suggested it but Abhira had been there to make him see light to that issue...Abhira had joined him back as well along with their latest addition Charu.Armaan knew the small smiles Dev and Charu passed but this time he was in full support of his sister whatever she decided.
But the Poddar Firm and Family both were in tatters.Charu had left the firm as well the house along with Krish and now resided in a rented apartment near Armaan's house along with Kiara joining them as well.Kiara had gotten a divorce from Abhir in a year and gotten her brain back as well.Ruhi and Rohit had moved in with Suwarna and Surekha since Manish had just passed couple of months back.Manoj too had left Poddar Firm and joined KL College as a professor and he and Manisha too had left the house.For all the arrogance Kaveri Poddar still couldnot see how her ghamand ruined the entire family and the generations old family firm....
Shivani had always been immensely proud of her son's choice,but when she had saw how Abhira stood by Armaan in his tough times she knew at that moment that Abhira was a real diamond and her Aaru was very lucky...It was after a year of living with her children that she had found out about Armaan and Abhira losing their son and Abhira's infertility...Abhira who had thought that like Vidya Shivani too would stop loving her was surprised when Shivani hugged her tightly assuring her that miracles do happen.Armaan had been very happy that day when Shivani had hugged her and let her cry for her lost child.Shivani had held her as long as Abhira needed and thats when Armaan knew who really loved him.
PRESENT
Abhira was working on a case file,but she had been feeling unwell the entire day today.Charu and Dev both exchanged glances.Charu knew that her bhabhi was very stubborn and would not move that easily.Just as Abhira got up to get water,she felt a wave of dizziness hit her.Charu and Dev caught her at the right moment.
Charu (chiding her)-Bhabhi ab bas.Subah se dekh rahi hu mai aapko.Mai aapko ghar le jaati hu.
Dev (nodding)-Abhira tum ghar jao.You have a important hearing next week.Get proper rest before that.
Abhira (agreeing)-Okay fine but no one tells Armaan before he finishes his meeting with that client.
Charu drove Abhira to home.Charu smiled thinking how far her brother had came.From that one room to a huge villa.He had earned every bit of it for himself.Charu helped Abhira get down and led her to the living room where Shivani sat.Shivani got worried seeing Abhira's pale face and when Charu informed her about the dizziness she got more worried but something else started in her mind....These symptoms were....
Shivani (caressing her head)-Abhira kuch aur bhi takleef ho rahi hai kya ?
Abhira (tiredly)-Ha mummy bahut thakaan lag rahi hai aaj kal and I threw up my food twice in the morning today.
Shivani (hesitatingly)-Abhira beta....woh....main...did you miss your periods ?
Abhira (suddenly aware)-How did I forget ? Kaam mai yaad hi nahi......
Shivani (tearfully smiling)-Beta you could be....
Abhira (not letting her complete)-Nahi aisa kuch bhi nahi hoga...Maybe its just hormonal..
Charu (calming her down)-Relax bhabhi.Par sach toh ye bhi hai that miracles do happen...
Abhira (nodding)-Nahi meri life mai nahi hote Charu.I had one chance and I lost my son.
Shivani (caressed her head)-Fine beta par iss waqt we do need to get you a check up...I will call Armaan.....Just relax..
Just as Shivani was about to call Armaan he entered.Dev had informed him about Abhira's bad health and he had immediately rushed to home.But before he could talk to Abhira Shivani pulled him aside and explained him the situation.Armaan was stunned hearing about all this.He had time and again tried to talk to her about this topic but she had built a wall around her as far as this issue was concerned...Shivani suggested that he remain calm because Abhira was not.Armaan took three deep breaths..
Shivani (telling him)-Kuch aur na sahi beta but she needs to see a doctor.Check up jald karwana zaroori hai.
Armaan nodded and went to sit next to Abhira who was very tearful.Armaan calmed her down and than decided to take her to a doctor with Charu offering to drive.Shivani prayed to god to not put her children under any more problems...Armaan glanced at Abhira,he had to stay strong for whatever this was because Abhira was clearly not right now.He held her hand tightly and assured her.Once reaching the hospital,Armaan and Abhira went to meet Abhira's gynecologist who knew her and her mother's history as well.The doctor heard Abhira's symptoms and decided to conduct a few tests..
Doctor (telling)-Mr Poddar mai kuch tests karwa deti hu and than you can go home and I want to conduct one sonography.(asking the nurse)Nurse Mrs Poddar ko room mai 100 mai leke jao.
Armaan (worriedly)-Doctor is everything alright ?
Doctor (smiling slightly)-Armaan her symptoms are consistent with that of pregnancy.Ek baar tests ke result dekh le phir pata chal jayega.Thats why I talked about sonography.
While the doctor conducted the tests and Armaan sat with her Charu called Krish and informed him that Abhira bhabhi was unwell.Krish assured Charu that he would be there soon...The nurse took blood tests and instructed Abhira to sit there for a while.Armaan sat next to Abhira holding her hand making her sit slightly.Armaan wiped the tears which slid down her face making him question her about it.
Armaan (asking)-Abhira...
Abhira (not letting him complete)-Why now ? It has been 5 years since....Mai finally iss baat se agree ho chuki thi that our dream of our child will never be fulfilled....It took me a long time to get over that loss Armaan....Aab darr lag raha hai mujhe....
Armaan hugged her tightly.Just before they could leave,the nurse gave Abhira a home pregnancy test to check..Armaan held the nervous Abhira's hand assuring her that he was with her.Abhira took the test and waited for the required time and when she checked it she was stunned....It was Positive....Armaan knew by the expressions on her face that it was positive....He was happy,they had never thought this day would ever come but he was scared...He knew what happened last time...Armaan made Abhira sit on the hospital bed...
Armaan (explaining)-Ira,agar tumhe ye baby nahi chahiye toh nahi layge hum ye baby....I know and understand what you are feeling....Last time tum mujh se door ho gayi thi,I donot want anything like that.....Tumhari Ha bahut zyada important hai,because you will feel everything good and bad......
Abhira (calming down)-It could also be false positive Armaan...Kal subah tak pata chale ga...
Abhira hugged Armaan tightly.She knew how much Armaan loved kids,she knew how much she craved for a child.But she didnt know how to deal with this pregnancy.Armaan took Abhira home along with Krish and Charu who had been waiting for them.He had called Shivani beforehand and explained everything to her..Sleep eluded Armaan...He just wanted Abhira and his child's safety.He could not bear anything happening to Abhira....She was his life,his strength...In the morning Armaan woke up to find Abhira in the washroom retching over the wash basin.....Armaan rushed in and held her steadily and helped her inside the room and than got a wet cloth and wiped her face making her feel bit fresh...
Armaan went downstairs to get something for Abhira when Shivani handed him a cup...
Shivani (smiling)-Its green tea with honey it will help her..
Armaan (surprised)-How do you know for sure that Abhira is pregnant ?
Shivani (chuckling)-Buddhuram because I have went through all this...And most of all mai Ma hu uski.And its my gut feeling that everything going from here is going to be absolutely fine if you decide to keep the baby....
Armaan (asking)-You wouldnot mind agar Abhira abortion karwana chahe ?
Shivani (nodding)-I would be saddened Aaru but its Abhira's body hence her decision beta.. and I will support her in it....
Armaan and Abhira sat nervously in the doctor's cabin.The doctor came smiling there.She looked at the reports and also at Akshara's reports which she had asked for...The doctor went through both the reports and Abhira's recent reports.....
Doctor (smiling)-Congratulations Abhira you are pregnant the reports are positive....
Armaan (holding Abhira's hand,reassuring her)-But doctor the complications......
Doctor (smiling)-Armaan complications hai but the major issue is her platelets...Par woh bhi hum sambhal lege, a tonic will keep her levels steady throughout pregnancy...Other than that there is no complication...I will keep a close eye....Checkup every month,strict diet and bed rest after 7th month....(asking them)-Lets get a sonography done....
The nurse helped Abhira change and help her up on the chair..Armaan kissed her on her forehead assuring her.Armaan was ecstatic hearing the baby's heartbeat but Abhira even though emotional didnot show it....She had been burnt before and she didnt want to keep her hopes high....Armaan looked at Abhira and knew that she was struggling a lot...He decided to talk to the doctor while Abhira was changing....
Armaan (asking)-Doctor Abhira ?
Doctor (assuring him)-Armaan I have known you both for 5 years now and I know Abhira's history as well...Aisa hota hai kai baar.....Jinke pehle aise diagnosis and miscarriage ke kisse hote hai they take little time to get there...To get happy....Let her take her own time....Woh darr man se jaane mai zindagi nikal jaati hai......
