His Light:

(Diya POV)

Mama can I come in? Aara you can always come in dear whenever you want. This is your house you have every right. I smiled at him, the person who I thought was the funniest one in our family was the one who is best at hiding his sadness.

Aara what are your thoughts? I know you heard everything. You silence has been itching me all this time. Do you also think like your dad? Did I act selfish?

From the look on his face, I knew that he has been stressing over this issue for a long time. I walked closer to him and made him sit at the edge of his bed. I gave him a glass of water and knelt in front of him with my hands holding his right hand.

Mama I am your daughter in law, your sons wife and a person belonging to this family. I am not the perfect person to judge the past. If it is not gods will, I would not be here as your daughter in law and his wife. Whatever happened in past happened for a reason. Even if you had a hand in this, I would not you judge you mama.

Stop taking the blame on yourself mama. I would never ever leave this family for anything. This is my home and my family until the last breath of my life. Subbu mama was already in tears, he held onto my hand tighter than earlier.

Mama, Nikky already spoke to about everything, even his intentions and plans to stop the wedding with Rakesh. He was shocked on hearing this from me; he tried to interrupt with a reasoning while I spoke before him.

If anybody is at fault it has to be me for not recognizing my feelings for Nikky and always relying on him to cancel the alliances brought by dad. I was the most immature and senseless person, the root cause for all these trouble. Had I recognized my feelings for him, nobody would have been placed in difficult situations like this.

There would be no misunderstanding with dad and you. No dear, it is no ones fault do not blame yourself. This is God's plan; maybe he wanted all of this to happen. No one is at fault this is how time plays; maybe if I kept my mouth shut we could have missed this situation.

Knowing your dad, he would have already told the truth to the entire family. I dont know how they would react. If their reactions are similar to your dads, it would break me a lot more than what I am feeling now. Just that word 'my family' from your dad, was like a knife to my heart. I know my act was not a self-less act but Nikesh is my only source of life through which I see my Shyamala. Marrying you to him is the best gift for him from me as his dad.

You have been the reason behind his happiness all these years and in his future too. With you in his life, he would finally get a chance to relax and be happy. That guy has worked himself hard to be here for you, as the best suitor. My son has never once expressed his feelings to me on any topic Aara. Even getting a position in our company was all out of his hard work.

Dad what is going on here? What did you do and why would mama create a problem? Nikky how long have you been listening to us. Not too long, for a few minutes maybe.

How could he look so handsome to me even in this toughest situation? I shook my head to clear my thoughts and made him to sit next to mama.

Nikky for now listen to me, for the other part of the story I will tell you later. Mama finally chucked seeing my expression, which did not match my feeble tone. Okay Diya but stop going in rounds.

Mama I would never leave you both at any tough situation. I have been living my life from the moment we got married as Mrs. Nikesh S. Krishna. And will continue to live the same. Therefore, even if an issue or misunderstanding happens in our family I will stay put along with you both.

Mama hugged both of us and kissed our heads while whispering lots of thank you and god bless you. While Nikky was so clueless giving us a weird stare yet trying to console mama. After calming him, Nikky and I walked towards our room.

As soon as we entered the room, he pulled me in an octopus hug. Damm Nikky loosen down, your are squeezing the life out of me. I have been missing you while you take your sweet time to be back from work and with that face you came home I was pissed. I was about to beat that useless best friend of mine.

Oh come on Nikky leave my poor brother, he was in a happy mess today. Diya let us not talk about him now, tell me what happened in the office, why were you and dad upset. And what is with your confessions and promises to dad.

This guy is really going to be the death of me. Nikky why dont we first sit with a proper distance instead of you clinging to me like this.

We can sit if you want but the next part is never going to happen anytime soon. Maybe you can sit while I lay down on your lap. Okay that would be much better than this Nikky.

I told him the entire happening. So with dad on the edge we dont know what to expect from him or the others. I think I was the only one stupid who did not recognize this feeling in between us. Even mama noticed you, so he took the matters in his hands to help you.

Oh my god, I did not expect dad to be one behind all this. He should have kept it to himself. How is he going to handle all this? Stop panicking Nikky somewhere at the bottom of my heart it tells me that dad will not create an issue out of this.

Let us not dig into this for now. Why dont we leave to Bangalore by tomorrow instead of a day later? It will help mama to stop worrying over this fact. He will have something else to concentrate. I think this is a good idea Diya let us leave by tomorrow morning...
