-Love and Tragedy-
PART 7
DOBRIYAL HOUSE
The Dobriyal House was alive again. Arnav and Madhu left no stone unturned to find out from where did the call had come. They came to know that Hotel Le Meridian was the location of the call. They were over-joyed. Their princess was in town! They decided to meet her after the conference the next day.
THE NEXT DAY
Angela woke up early at 5:00 in the morning and then woke up PJ as well...
PJ(still sleepy murmured)- Kya hua Angie! Mamma ke paas jaana hai?
No! PJ...it'sh(it's) morning! I wanna go out for a walk!
PJ looked at the watch
Angela! It's 5:00 in the morning! It's too early...
I wanna go!I wanna go!I wanna go!I wanna go!I wanna go!... Angela started screaming. PJ closed her mouth... Achcha! okay! I'll call your papa...he'll take you...
I wanna go with you PJ!
Me?
Yech(yes)!
Alright! Chalo! tum ready ho jao...main bhi ready ho jaati hoon...
PJ took Angela out for a nice walk. She texted Anvesha about the walk. PJ seemed to be fully engrossed in the beauty and ambiance of Dehradun. Her heart had simply craved for this scene. The nut-vendors and chaat-vendors had already arrived though it was too early. PJ saw Angela as she danced in the park. Angela had never been to such an open atmosphere back at Miami. PJ got a message from Anvesha. Anvesha texted her that they would give Angela a surprise at the park because though Angie had asked PJ not to tell her mum and dad about the walk, PJ informed them beforehand. PJ called back Anvesha to chit-chat a little...
Great plan Annie! I am here at Aurobindo park. Tell the driver, he'll drop you.!
Yeah sure...Angela tumhe pata nahi kahaan-kahaan ghumayegi!
I love it!
So, happy to be back...
Anvesha, pata nahi Angela kahin dikh nahi rahi hai...i'll call you back...!
Okay bye!
PJ looked around and saw Angela was out of scene. She rushed around to seek her but couldn't find her...PJ got tensed...
Tears started rolling down her cheeks as she called Angela's name...
20 minutes later...
PJ had searched almost the whole of the park and now she was going to report when she saw Angela at the corner of the park holding someone's hands and crying.
Aap ro kyun rahe ho beta?- Asked the man whose hands Angela was holding...
PJ!
Kaun PJ?
Angela couldn't understand that much hindi though she spoke some broken fragments of hindi which were taught to her by PJ.
English 😭
Who are you child?
Myself Angela! I am losht...pleasze help me...
Angela looked around and saw PJ coming towards her. With a jerk she left the man's hands and ran towards PJ...
Where the hell were you Angela...? Whose hands were you holding anyway?
That man...! Angela pulled PJ to the bench where the man was standing trying to figure out the direction where the girl had gone.
As soon as the man came in PJ's vision, both of them froze. PJ's heart stopped for the moment...The man she saw was her father Arnav Dobriyal...PJ! PJ! He is the man who was holding my hand!... Tears formed in PJ's eyes. Arnav, on his side, he couldn't believe that his daughter was standing alive in front of his eyes... He advanced towards her. She advanced too. Before they could speak, Anvesha pulled her away and surprised Angela...PJ woke up from the trance she went in after she had seen her father. She wanted to hug and touch him but Anvesha didn't let her. She made her move away from Arnav and then she asked PJ to get in the car. PJ did so. Arnav saw PJ go away and stood their like a life-less block.
Kya hua PJ?
PJ didn't answer...she was furious over Anvesha. Anvesha didn't realise PJ's anger. She tickled PJ. PJ snapped her...
Please Anvesha...just stop!
Kya hua PJ...
Why did you pull me away from the park...
Why are you angry at that?
Anvesha! The man who found Angela...he was my dad...i wanted to speak to him...
Wanna go back?
Why do you care?
Look! I am sorry PJ, I didn't knew...you should have stopped me!
Anvesha, both of us know...that all of that happened all of a sudden...
Driver! Turn the car back to Aurobindo Park...
As soon as the car reached the park, PJ jumped out of the car and madly ran from one corner to the other searching for Arnav. He was nowhere to be found...
PJ! I think he's gone! We should better get back. We need to get ready for our presentation.
Anvesha! You have hurt me!
HOTEL LE MERIDIAN
Back at the hotel, Marissa was searching blindly for PJ and Anvesha when she found them coming in from the gate...
Where were you both...huh?
Normal Morning-walk...Good Morning Marissa! You got up so early!
Yeah...I couldn't sleep thinking about the presentation. You both! Meet me in 15 mins in the conference hall.
Right away...
PJ didn't wait for an answer and left the place...
Now what happened to her...?
Nothing! Just a little exhausted...she'll be fine after taking rest...
Angela rushed back to their room and hugged her dad and said Good Morning. He had arranged for a care-taker for Angela because for the next month, the trio(PJ, Anni and Abhishek) would be out preparing for the May edition...Abhishek introduced her to Nanny...
PJ closed the door behind and fell on the bed. She started wailing...Then after some minutes, she attended to herself and then went out to the conference hall where Marissa was waiting...
Take PJ! This is the schedule for the conference. you need to see that everything goes smoothly!
Yes Marissa! don't worry about that!
THE PRESS-CONFERENCE
The conference started with the lighting of lamp. They were in India after all!
Marissa addressed the share-holders and then handed over the mike to PJ. Well, she wasn't expecting that.
Ladies and Gentleman! Now I would like PJ- Our Chief Editor to brief you about our agenda for the coming month and other details...so PJ!
The Dobriyals became alert as they heard PJ's name. Arnav had heard Angela addressing Piya as PJ.
BACK STAGE
Marissa! Me! How can I?
Ohh! PJ Of course you can...c'mon get going...
You have killed me!
PJ walked to the stage examining the audience. She was searching for someone. As soon as she saw them, she gained confidence and a smile sweeped across her lips.

I am the Chief Editor of the Asian Wing of Verve founded 6 years ago...We are here to celebrate the 6th Anniversary of Verve-Asian Wing!

Arnav and Madhu were surprised to see their daughter speaking so confidentle in front of a large crowd.
BACK STAGE
That was spectacular PJ...I told you? you'll rock!
Thanxzz so much
You were fabulous PJ!
PJ was still very angry with Anvesha, so she replies coldly- Thank you Anvesha.
Marissa went out to announce about the party that was due tonight!
AFTER THE CONFERENCE
PJ was sitting in the conference hall thinking about what will she say to her family if she met them face-to-face. A hand came down and rested on her shoulder. PJ turned around in defense and saw Arnav standing. He had tears in his eyes. PJ started crying as well. Arnav opened his arms and PJ jumped and hugged him tightly and cried aloud. Anvesha and Abhishek saw this from the curtain and started weeping as well...
PRECAP- Piya meets her sisters!
