***************Five Months Later*******

Ru wake up na...You are getting late for school...Ru... Arohi yelled from the kitchen...

But there was no response from Ru....

Arohi sighed....and switched the stove heat to low and walked to their room....and walked near her..

Arohi switched off the fan and pulled open the blanket....

Ru was clinging on to Neil's photo frame and sleeping...Suddenly Arohi forgot all the rush that went on in her head and sat on the bead near her...

Ab tumhari beti ko uta bhi do na neil!!!Ab half hour lagegi to wake her up...aur ab hum firse late pahunchane school.....

Sach sach batana neil.....tum late jaate tena school!!!Because I toh was perfect in school... I told you tum par gayi hai yeh laadki...

Ru woke up all irritated...Matashri!! Ru yelled..and without opening her eyes got up and hugged her matashri....

Main intelligent hoon na...matashri??? Arohi smiled she knew where this was going....Haa...Arohi said patting her back still hugging her..

Fir school jana zaruri hai??? Ru asked adjusting her head on Arohi's shoulder....

Arohi bit her lips....and gently broke the hug and tucked in her hairs behind her ears while Ru was still pretending to sleep...

I know you are intelligent Ru , but you can become more intelligent na??? Arohi said caressing her hair...

Mujhe nahi banna aur intelligent saying this she fell back hugging arohi on her shoulders all yawning....

Come Ru wake up... Arohi lifted her up..

Dekha papa....kitni vulum karti hai sone bhi nahi deti Matashri mereko....Aap kuch kijiye na... ru said seeing Neil's photo...

Arohi tickled Ru all over and soon the house that was engulfed in silence, filled itself with giggles and laughter...

Arohi got Ru dressed up and they rushed to school because they were obviously running late..

And according to Ru it was all because of her matashri....

Arohi took her scooty out...and Ru sat behind her giving Arohi a major earthquake and tightly held her arms around her waist....

Aarohi Ruffled her arms and they started...

Arohi dropped her Ru too school and saw akshara drop Abhir..

Arohi too was surprised, Yes Abhir and Ru were in the same school although Arohi and Akshu were living in separate places...

*******Flashback*****

Just after the message Akshara received from Arohi, the night Akshara had packed up and left the Birla mansion with a note saying...

"I thought I loved you Abhi...All this days I have been contemplating whether I love you or not ? am I doing the right thing are not?? But then Yesterday's Arohi's words pinched me to reality of how gullible It was of me to get back to you!!!! I left the man who was with me at the toughest that too with no expectations from me, helping and holding me at every step...

Abhinavji was the man you never were to me....and I think You never will be to me....

I hope you too realise that always you aren't in the right??? And haa...iskeliye bhi arohi ko blame mat karna...

I take pride and fully accept that I took this decision to leave you....

You might be the biological father of Abhir but Abhinavji will always be his papa...

I have signed the divorce papers..please sign it...and Don't make drama over it...Already Abhir has seen and heard enough....

I guess this is the least you could do to a girl you married and claimed to love moon and back and pushed away twice ...without hearing her....

And this one is for bade papa...

We are not in shimla don't worry we will be safe...Don't try to contact me or Abhinavji ...I am doing this for Aaru...She has lost so much in life and I don't want to spoil it for her...

Good bye everyone...

Leaving this Akshara had came to the place where Arohi had messaged...

A little time later Abhinav and Abhir showed up....

Akshara ran and hugged abhir....

Abhir too cried .....

Abhinav understood that akshara had come to them ...and nodded his head...and left in oreder to give some privacy for This mom son Duo....thinking she came for her abhir...

But just then Akshara held his hand....and stood up to face him....

You told me to choose between abhir and Abhimanyu.. I choose you abhinavji...

And is family ko... Ashara took abhir and abhinav's hands Koi cheen hi nahi saktha....Akshara said looking into his eyes...While Abhinav's heart fluttered and a quick tear fell on the floor

Pakka na?? Abhinav fumbled....Akshara wiped his tears... Sorry abhinavji...I know I had hurt you...Maaf kardenge please... She pleaded...

Abhinav quickly ran and hid himself and cried his emotions out.....He has a family now....He has a wife his son are with him back...and this time it would not be fake....

He was ecstatic and happy and his emotions were all over the place making him shed those happy tears...He came back running and lifted and swirled abhir and threw him in the air and caught him making him go all giggles...

Good choice Akshu... came a voice from behind....

It was arrohi....

I am happy you finally choose reality over your fantasised idea of love.... Arohi smiled..

Thank you Arohi ji mujhe mera parivaar wapas dilane ke liye... Abhinav said

Arohi smiled... Chalo then I can leave....

Arohi was about to leave but akshara held her hand...

I know you want to live alone...I am not asking you to stay in the same house ...but cant we atleast stay in the same city, send both abhir and ru ro same schools...please...ruk jao....Arohi...varna itna akeli ho jaugi ki akelpan kaatne ko doutega...please....

Arohi did not even turn back at her words..

Ek baar toh apni didi ke mann le...I acceot you were always way more mature in handling things than me, but this time hear me out please...

*********FB ends*********

And that's how Arohi stayed in the same city and got Ru admitted in the same school as Abhir...

It was past lunch time and Arohi's phone buzzed...It was from Ru's school...

Is this Roohi's mom I am speaking to???

Yes arohi said all terrified...

The school correspondent immediately yelled at her... Do you know what Ru did??? Please come here immediately and see her behaviour?? And the phone call got cut...

Arohi immediately got out in her scooter all confused.....

Now what she has done?? Last time toh she had fought with her teacher and bought her to tears ...since the teacher and Arohi had the same water bottle...Ru did not return it unless Arohi came and showed her water bottle was with her....Now what??? Arohi wondered....

Arohi parked her scooty and she saw Akshara parking and scooty....

You too received the call??? Arohi asked akshara all surprised...

It was Ru who always had something going on in her school and Abhir was always the quiet kid, but now they two have been called suprising and scarring vboth mothers...

They were taken to the principal's room...

And they saw both their kids all mud on their hands their heads their uniforms it was very obvious they had gotten into a fight ...

Please come in both of you... the principal addressed them...

You know what they they did...Abhir and roohi got into a fight with other buy an Abhir had pushed him down and Roohi had bit the boy....

A meek voice came from Ruhi... Mam....Maine bhi usss ladke ko push kiya sirf abhr ne nahi...

The principal looked at Arohi all hopeless....

She wants credit now....Mam I think you should teach her.... Before the principle could complete Arohi spoke...

I am sorry but I don't think ru and abhir would pick up a fight intentionally.....

Haa..hsb... abhir said....

Hsb??? The principal asked

Haa...sahi bola... Ru replied holding her head down...

What happened ?? Arohi and akshra knelt in front of their kids and asked...and immediately Ru ran away....

Abhir wiped his tears... Vo ladka ru ko uski papa ki baare mein puch kar ched raha tha...isliye push kiya maine...fir usne mujhe maara... he showed his wounds.... Fir ru ne use girakar usko bit kiya...

Abhir said all weeping...

Arohi and akshara looked at each other...

Akshara immediately stormed off at walked up to principal's face....

So this was right..abhi ke abhi uss ladke ko bulayiye and ask him to say sorry to my Ru...then our both kids will ask their sorrys... Akshara yelled..

Arohi saw Akshara and smiled a little and infact she felt a little proud of akshara...

Akshara on the other hand was so angry that she pulled both aarohi and abhir and stormed out of the room...

They both saw Ru standing there alone and immediately akshara took her ina n embrace...

Mama told you na you are special rothe nahi bacha...You have Bade mama and papa right?? she took her and rocked back and forth on her shoulder while arohi attended to abhir's wounds...

They both had arranged a party at akshara's house to take their minds off things that had happened that night...

Soon it was late night and Both Ru and abhir had slept hugging each other...

Arohi pecked a kiss on both their heads...

Akshara came in their romm and signalled Aarohi come out..

I have informed the child's mother..she said that her child will say his sorry to Ru.... Arohi smiled at akshara...

Arohi looked her up and down....Who are you?? And what have you done to my sister?? Arohi chuckled..

But akshu got teary eyed and hugged Arohi... I am sorry Aaru.... I am sorry..Kaah I was not that stupid that day...I am sorry .. she cried on her shoulders...

Arohi too cried ... She had not had the chance to cry for her Neil as he had always thought about her child...

But this time she could not hold back Aaru's tears flooded in like a tsunami...finally grieving her heart out...on her sister's shoulders...

Akshara let her cry and kept on consoling her....

*****************

Aaru wrote everything and smiled....Although it was only the two of them and she had started working in a small hospital in a small town...things were finally in peace for her...

The peace that she yearned all her life...was there .... In a house smaller to goenka mansion...in a job that was even smaller to what she had birla hospital...

She had finally found a place where she could smile and cry her heart out and could never be judged for it....She had found her comfort place ....a house where it felt like home .... Found a ecstatic comfort in her diary in her long lost sister's arms today.

She was broken and incomplete yet she was at peace finally....
