Update - #3
Sometimes life is not what you have imagined and thought it should be. But making it a simple life everyday is the best way to live. Making a honest attempt at everything we do makes life easy.
This was Sarita's policy. And this is what Vikranth loved about her. She made it easy for him to respond to her. Doesn't over complicate her expectations from him. She never asked him for anything and nor did he do any less for her to see any lack in her life.
Days passed by in bliss and slowly Vandana & Kajri moved on in their lives not having much to plot against her. Though sometimes they did try instigating Abhi about Sarita being a step mom.
One day while Vikranth was working from home... Sarita walked in to his room and stood by the door watching him work on his ipad. He looked up and noticed her tensed face. He was wondering what might be troubling her. He asked her to come near him. She obliged. She made sure to close the door.
He was wondering (kind of excited too!) why she was closing the door.
Sarita walked towards him and told him that she was pregnant. Vikranth couldn't hold himself. He was too excited ... he was very very happy to hear the news. He lifted her up and hugged her tight. "Thank you", he wishpered in her ears.
She had tears in her eyes by then. She gently talked to him about her concerns. She said, "mujhe ye bachcha nahi chahiye".
He was shocked. He couldn't understand. He asked her why? "Yeh hamari pyaar ki nishani hai" isse thum kyun apnanna nahi chahthi ho?"
She said in a very simple tone, " mujhe Abhi kaafi hain, mujhe usko dukhi nahin karna hain." Aap dekh rahen hain na woh abhi abhi uski confidence bada rahi hain." Mujhe itni jaldi nahin hain koi bache paida karne ki. Kaash hum thode sawdhan rehthe"
"mujhe aisi koi kaam nahin karna jo wusko sadma pahunche. Woh sochtha hain ki agar mujhe koi bacha ho jaye tho main wusko pyaar nahin karoongi."
Vikranth, lifts her chin up and says, "meri ankhon mein dekho"... and looked at her intensely , 'ithni si bhaat?" "tujhe aisa kyun lagtha hain ki Abhi ko yeh achcha nahin lagega?"
Sarita, soberly replies, " aaj kal woh school mein aur aas paas pados mein yahi baathein jo suntha hain". "Aur uski samjh tho ithni choti hain ki itni badi baath usko samjhne ke liye mushkil hoga."
Vikarath says, "magar aisa ho bhi saktha hai ki woh is baath se khush ho?"
Sarita says," ho saktha hain"."magar hamein ye kaise maaloom hoga?"
Vikranth gently pulls her towards himself and hugs her and asks,"pehle mujhe is kush kabhar sunane ke liye thumhe kyaa dhoon?"
Sarita says, " aap mujhe waada kijiye ki jo bhi hoga is ghar mein Abhi ki kushi se bad kar nahi hogi. Aaap ye waadha kijiye."
Vikranth takes her hand in his hand and keeps it near his heart and says, " jab tak hain jaan, meri jaan, thumahari khushi meri khushi hain!"
and says," thum fikar math karo, main ek plan kartha hoon."
Sarita says, "plan?!?!" Kaisa plan?!?!"
Vikranth smirks and says, "Jab se thum aayi ho mujhe bhi dramebaaz bana diya! kya karen!"
Saritha feels embarrassed and says, "aap bhi na!" and pouts.
Rest will be updated later!
