yet another day:
krishna was leaning on the back of the bed , stretching his legs and sitting . pratigya sitting beside him.
pratigya:'try..bolo...maa....'she was trying to make him speak.
krishna:....he was fed up of trying.
pratigya:'krishna bolo...maaa...amma...yeh tho hamari ghunti laal bhi bol thay thi hai...π'
krishna:.....he tried again.
pratigya:'try..try...'
pratigya:' baba...bolo... bahut simple word hai....bachcha bhi bol thay tha hai...come on try...you can...π'
krishna:......he tried ....finally....he succeeded in his attempt
krishna:'...s..o...l...r..y...' that was his first word he spoke after his accident.
the moment the broken word SORRY came from his mouth she burst in to loud cry.she fall on his chest, hold her shirt tightly and try to bury her crying face deep in to his chest.krishna tried to raise his hands to hold her but could not.
pratigya:' maine aapko maaf karti....π...muchay aap se koi shikayat nahi...π...in fact sorry tho muchay bolna chahi yeh..na mai aap ki zinda ge mai aati, na aap ko yeh din daykna pad tha...mari hi wajaha se aap iss haal mai hain...itni badi aur lambhi sazaaπ...meri wajaha se hi hai...muchay maaf kardo...i brought ill fate in your life...

'
her heart wrenching cry gave strength to his hand and made his hand raise up to his chest.he kept his palm on the back side of her head.
krishna:'..p...r..a..tig...ya..a...'
pratigya:'omgπ²π²..aap bol sak thay ho!...aap bol sak thay ho!...π'she caressed his both the cheeks ,shoulder ,chest with both her hands with tears rushing down from her eyes like broken dam.she circled his neck with her hands, buried her face on his shoulder and cried.she was unable to come out of her excitement.
shakti who was about to enter his bed room saw them hugging and crying, he stood near the open door and knocked on it.
pratigya:'shakti bhai π...thay ko! ...yeh bol rahay hain! ..π'she said in between her cry and got up from the bed wiping her tears.
shakti:'π²...it is! thank god π...π'his eyes too filled with tears.
shakti:'i am so glad krishna, that you are showing a vast improvement in your health...i hope you will be normal soon...π'he sat beside him.
shakti:'muchay pata tha pratigya can do it and she did it...it is all because of you pratigya...just saying thank you is like insulting you...'
pratigya:'please shakti bhai...don't make me embarassed...ek minute...i will be back...π'she left them and went down to the kitchen first time.with the help of chandu kaka she made kheer and brought to krishna.
kastui:'aaj mai bahuth kush hunπ...aaj mere leyeh bahuth kushi ka din hai...i would like you to have some sweet...π'she sat beside him.

pratigya:'kya? πachcha nahi hai?.....let me checkπ...'she took one spoon and ate.
krishna:π...he gave a very wide and happy smile looking at her eating kheer.she under stood that he made that expression to make her also to eat that kheer.
