Chapter 2:
It was only Ronnie and Richa who knew of Anaya's existence since Ananya gave birth to Anaya just before slipping into coma...
Kabir was too scared that Shreya being the physco she was could harm his infant daughter...and he certainly could afford That...
Evening...in cafeteria...
Ronnie and Kabir were sitting...sipping coffee...
R: sir...Anaya theek hai kya?...I mean...
K: ( whispered) ha...she's ok...ma use movie dikhane le gayi hai...main usse sab kuch dena chahta hu...par ronnie main paiso se kuch bhi le aau par use uski ma ka pyaar kaise du? Use Ananya ki zarurat hai...and I'm just...just helpless...just helpless...
Kabir hit the table in frustration...
Ronnie kept a hand on his shoulder...
R: don't worry sir...Ananya kab tak soegi...uthegi na ek din...zarur uthegi...
K: I really hope...doctors ka kehna hai ki Vo khatre se bahar hai par uski body treatment ko respond hi nahi kar rahi...
Ronnie hugged Kabir reassuringly...
Kabir broke the hug on hearing his phone ring...he walked to the privacy of his cabin on seeing the caller-ID...
A: hullo daddy! I'm missing u! Ghar aao na!
K: awww! Sorry beta...daddy busy haina...kitna saara kaam hota hai unhe office mein...
A: hmmm...( all sad but her face lit up the next second)...daddy maine na aapke liye surprise bheja hai...
Kabir paled a little since he didn't want Anaya's existence to be known...
K: uh...achcha...kya?
A: arrey buddhu! ( facepalm) surprise batate thodi hai...
K: ok baba..chalo bye take care Aur main jaldi aunga...ok?
A: okay!
Kabir cut the call...a peon knocked at the glass door of his cabin...
On receiving a nod from him the peon entered...
P: sir...ye letter aapke liye...
K: ( took the letter) thank u!
He was amazed at the envelop and it's design...
Kabir opened the neatly sealed letter and was shocked to find the writing which loooked very small and awkward...
It read...

Kabir had a aww look on his face...he loved this...soo much! There was one more paper inside the teddy bear design envelop...
It was a drawing with three figures...one was a male which he understood was himself holding the hand of a small child ( Anaya Ofcourse! )
Another lady a little farther while the child tried to stretch her hand towards her but couldn't...( lady is Ananya)
Kabir couldn't stop his tears looking at that...
Kh: kabir!
Kabir heard Khalid's voice and hurriedly wiped away his tears and hid the envelop...
K: bolo Khalid...
Both of them discussed some important TOP related things...
After a bang on bulletin Kabir Kashyap house to pick Anaya and then they left for home...
In the car...
A: daddy...aaj bhi maine aapka...bull..bully ( bulletin) dekha...aap na TV pe bohot achchi story bolte ho...Aur phir end mein aap bolte ho...zin...zinda..zindabaad!

K: vaise meri pyaari baby ka toh 6th birthday haina next week...haina?
A: hmmm...par mamma ke bina...nahi chahiye birthday!
Anaya starts crying...
Kabir stops the car at a side and cups her face and wipes her tears...
J: itni choti aakho mein itne mote mote aasu!
He kisses her cheek and hugs her...
K: na mera bachcha! Aise nahi rote hai...aap good girl hona meri...Aur mamma kya sochengi agar aap roogi? Hmmm? Ki daddy toh Anaya ka dhyaan hi nahi rakhte...
A: ( sobbing) daddy...subah..subah...aap chale jaate ho naani...naani Aur mama hi hote hai...Aur...dusre bachcho ke paas...mam... mamma daddy! Toh mere kyu nahi?
K: ( caressing her hair)...shaant ho jao baby! Chalo...stop crying...ok kal daddy Aur Anaya dono ki chutti ok? Main full day aapke saath hi rahunga...ok my sweetheart?
Anaya hugged him tightly...
They had dinner outside since Kabir wanted to cheer her up...
Both reached home soon after...Anaya had fallen asleep...Kabir lovingly smiled at his sleeping daughter and picked her up in his arms and carried her home...
Anita had already changed German clothes so he put her in bed and tucked her in and sat beside her...working on his laptop...
Past:

Richa rushes to Ananya...
R: oye! Tu theek toh haina Ananya? Kuch bolegi?...

Kabir replies in his monotone voice...
A: uh...s..sir Vo main...actually...aapko thanks kehne ...aayi thi...Vo subah ke liye...
K: it's alright agar koi Aur ladki bhi hoti tabhbhi main vahi karta...
Ananya was a bit dejected but she hid it...

He extended his hand to clasp hers...he took her delicate hand in his and shook it...
K: Kabir Sharma

Saying this she gave him one of the cutest smile ever...
