Abhimanyu was laying on his bed with open eyes it was almost dawn and last night he couldn't sleep as usual.

The day his family died he lost his sleep because loneliness took over and sleeping pills became his only solution,he purposely took it daily and more than prescribed as he really want death to come early to him but last night he didn't eat that pills as he was feeling anxious and didn't want to sleep,anxious about traveling in flight after the death of his family he had never travelled in flight or we can say he didn't even travelled he used just go to hospital do his work and then go to cliff and then come home in the emptiness he doesnt want to go anywhere.

It is not necessary that he should go he can cancel the flight nobody had forced him to come to London ,but somewhere he want to go their he doesn't know why ,why he want to go their but his heart was telling him to go .

He was looked at the family photo which was on his bed as he has habit of sleeping with his family photo.
He was really craving for family love.

He looked at the photo with sad smile
this photo was taken 6 months ago when
finally akshara decided that she has forgiven abhimanyu and came back to him all were so happy by the reunion.
It was full family photo which was taken were Neil's photo is kept with chandan mala on it as they all wanted neil in this family photo.

After all without neil this family was incomplete.

Abhimanyu slowly carses the photo with love he got up from bed and kept the photo in his bag .

Abhimanyu thought:-Ab log toh chale gaye ab pariwar ke naam main sirf ye tasveer bachi hai mere pass.

And then he went to freshen up as he have to leave within 2 hours.

Time passed
Scene changed towards flight
Abhimanyu was sitting in the plane with tensed face .
He was remembering his families death face which he saw after the plane crash.

He was not tensed because he thought this plane will crash neither he was afraid of death.

He was just tensed as every flight made him remember his death famili face.

Thinking all this his mind went back to the last day and last minute when he was with his full family.

Flashback
Harshvardhan was standing in the hall
Harshvardhan:- are jaldi Karo tum log hame masoori ke liye Aaj hi nikala hai.kitna time lagta hai tum logo ko taiyar hone ke liye.

Anand:- are harsh taiyar hone de unhe Aram se.

Manjiri came down :- haa ji hum sab bade samay baad ghumne Jaa bache excited hai aur unhe sab perfect chaiye na tu thora wakt laga rahe hai toh jane dijiye na.

Harshvardhan:- are haa par itna time lagye ge toh late ho jayega.

At that time ruhi and abhir came running:- daduuu dadiii dekho ham log taiyar ho gaye.both said at the same time .

Harshvardhan and manjiri both picked abhir and ruhi respectively.

Harshvardhan:- are wah hamre dono bache toh kitne fast Kam karte hai.

Abhir:- wahi toh mummy papa ko dekho woh kitne slow taiyar hote hai .

Ruhi:- haa mama bhi bohot time lagati hai .

Suddenly from backside acha bachi
They turned and saw abhi ,arohi and akshara standing their .
Arohi :- haa main toh bahut time lagti ho na 1 ghante toh aine ke samne main kadhi thi na.
Akshara:- are do ghante baal main set kar rahi thi na abhir.
Abhir /ruhi:- haa wahi toh kitna time lagate ho taiyar hone main aap log aap ke wajah se ham late ho jayenge .
Akshara and arohi looked at them with open mouth .
Arohi/akshara:- tum log ki toh ...
At that time abhimanyu cutted as to save both his children from his best friend and his wife.
Abhimanyu:- are late ho raha jaldi chalo.
Harshvardhan:- haa haa chalo goenka bhi airport pauch gaye hai Hamra intezar kar rahe hai .
All were about to go at that time abhimanyu stopped :- ek minute he ran back to his room.
Harshvardhan (frustrated):- ab ise kya hua?
Akshara (smile):- woh neil ko lene Gaye hai.
All became silent and arohi smiled seeing abhimanyu love for neil .
Abhimanyu never broked his habit when neil was alive he used take neil were ever he goes now even when neil died abhimanyu take neil's photo frame were ever he goes yes he have neil photo in his mobile as well as his purse but still abhimanyu has a different love for photo frames .

He just feel connected towards photo frames .Arohi felt stupid for becoming a barrier in their relation because of her so called practical nature.

At that time abhimanyu came with small photo frame of neil and said:- chalo ab .

All looked at him with love and tears .

Abhimanyu understood why their are tears in their eyes but he chose to ignore it as he didn't want a emotional scene now as they are going for happy trip .

They all nodded and went out .
All men started puting bags in the in the cars while ladies sat with the children .
All were set to embark on the journey at that time abhimanyu phone rang .
Abhimanyu picked it and talked .

Then he said :- aap log jaye ek emergency aa gaya hai hospital main jo main hi handle kar sakta ho so I have to go
All looked at him startled.

Harshvardhan:-operation Kai ghante chalega na toh flight toh miss jo jayegi

Manjiri:- toh theek hai ham aa jana cancel kar dete hai na kal ka ticket nikale lenge .
Abhimanyu:- bilkul nahi maa aap log AJ hi jayenge are sab prepare ho gaya hai bache bhi kitne khush hai plz aap log jaye main dusri flight se AA jaunga ya kal tak aa jaunga .

Akshara:- kaise baat kar rahe ho nahi ham tumhare bina nahi jayenge .

All :- haa

Abhimanyu:- plz meri baat mano main paka kal tak aa jaunga plz aap log jaye bade dino baad thora chill karne mil raha hai plz aap log jaye main kal tak aa jaunga .
All:- nahi .
Arohi:- haa abhimanyu ham bhi tumhare sath kal chalenge.

Abhimanyu pleading:- plz na ap log jao main aa jaunga plzz .
He said with cute eyes that no one dare to deny .
Harshvardhan:- theek hai ham jate hai par kal tak tum mujhe masoori main chaiye hamre sath nahi toh agli flight se ham yaha a jayenge.ok.
Abhimanyu nodded and ran while harshvardhan took over driving sit and drove away.

Abhimanyu did promised to be present in masoori the next day but he was stuck with back to back emergency cases so he had to postponed his flight and this doesn't sit well with his family but he convinced them to enjoy and come which was very tough for him as they were all angry on him he know elders will be angry but atleast the children deserve this holiday and both arohi and abhir are even though angry on him they will soon enjoy forgetting everything.

All family members understood it but were very angry with abhimanyu and didn't talk with him no because he didn't arrive in masoori as promised but because he convinced them to go living him alone and even convinced them to stay their for children .

Offcourse they understand his work commitments but atleast he should have let them cancel the trip because they all wanted to spend time together.

But abhimanyu's stubbornness is world famous .
And his emotional blackmail is also world famous.

After spending 1 week in masoori they were going to come back so abhimanyu very excited he was happily sitting in his room as was planning of how pacify his angry family.
Abhimanyu (happily):- aaj sab log wapis aa rahe hai .then said sadly:- par Sab naraz hai mujhse main unhe mana toh longa par kaise ?
He was thinking then he got an idea and he smiled he called someone and booked tickets.
Then hanged up the call and smiled happily:- ab ham sab dubara chuthi pe jayenge aur apki baat sath main samay bethayenge .
Apne do unhe ye vacation plane sunkar woh log mujhse naraz nahi reh payenge I am sure.
He smiled happily.
But suddenly a news flashed on the tv infront of him .

"FLIGHT 3980 (MY IMAGINARY FLIGHT NUMBER) WHICH WAS GOING GO LAND IN MUMBAI AIRPORT AT 12:30 PM HAS CRASHED JUST BEFORE IT COULD REACH MUMBAI BECAUSE OF SOME MALFUNCTION AND REPORTS ARE SAYING THAT NO ONE HAS SURVIVED.

ACCORDING TO THE REPORTS BIRLA AND GOENKA FAMILY ONE OF THE FAMOUS AND REPUTED FAMILY WAS ALSO IN THIS FLIGHT .

ACCORDING TO THE REPORTS NO BODY HAS SURVIVED. BUT STILL POLICE ARE CHECKING FOR NAY SURVIVORS."

Abhimanyu felt like his breathing hitched like floor slipped beneath his feet.
He felt horrible.
But then he composed himself :- aisa nahi ho sakta zaroor mere family theek hogi woh log bol rahe hai na ki sur....survivors kitne hai check kar rahe hai na zaroor sab theek honge haa.
He with shivering hand called airport authority to get any information but they asked him to wait for few hours as they also don't know about survivors.

That few hours were hell for abhimanyu he was devastated.
He was planning to surprise them but here he only got a surprise.That to worst surprise of his life.

He just layed on bed with opened eyes .
After few hours his phone rang .
He hurriedly picked up it was from a hospital.

As soon as he picked up the other person spoke .
"Sir am I talking to abhimanyu birla."
He heard a girl saying.

He said:- "yes you are talking to abhimanyu birla"with composed voice.
"Sir i am talking from city hospital plz come to City hospital sir"she said
And abhimanyu's breath stopped .

Why are they calling him in hospital is his family ok.
They should be ok na ?

His train of thoughts broke when he heard the voice again.
"Sir are you their "
He said "yes I am coming" with shivering voice he was no longer to compose himself.
He ran towards city hospital .

Soon he was in city hospital
He don't know how he came as he was not in sense he is just thankful that he reached their he soon ran towards reception in a miserable condition and asked the nurse:- i am abhimanyu birla apke mujhe call Kiya tha.

Nurse looked at him with in her eyes sympathy:- ji maine apko call Kiya tha.ap....she hesitated apki maa apse mila chahti thi.
He narrowed his eyes and said glaring at her :- Milana chahti THI matlab...
Nurse bowed her head down and said :- ji she is no more.
Abhimanyu felt hai heart stopped his mother his mother couldn't leave him.
How can she how can she .
Then he remember his about other family members he didn't want to ask as somewhere he know what will be the answer but still he couldn't help asking.
Abhimanyu(teary):- aur.....mere...baki...family member...woh kaise hai .
Nurse looked at him with sympathy and took a deep breath and said :- they are also no more.
Abhimanyu stood their like a statue he was not able to move neither was he able to breath .Only tears were flowing from his eyes .

Nurse continue looking down :-apki maa apse kuch baat karna chahthi thi par aap ko Ane main der lag Rahi thi isliye unhone apni akhiri baat isme (showing her phone )record kar di unhone kaha tha ye apko de do.

Abhimanyu just took that mobile but didn't said anything like he couldn't feel anything.

The nurse looked at him she know this is not right time to ask this and she don't know whether to ask or not but anyway she asked with hesitation:- are....are you ok sir ?
Abhimanyu just nodded and blank expression.The nurse was little shock this man infront of her neither burst out crying not shouted at her or called for doctor to shout at him.

Abhimanyu said with plain voice :- kaha hai woh log .
The nurse :-chaliye dekha ti ho .

Abhimanyu slowly with slow steps went with the nurse he was not feeling any strength in his legs but still he walked .

Soon the nurse stopped at the morgue and slowly enter inside the morgue with abhimanyu .

She slowly opened all his family members face one by one and stood their silently.

Abhimanyu just saw his whole family laying their he just don't know how to react.
His ru, his abhir they both were sleeping so peacefully like they used to sleep in his arms.
He just got abhir and today he lost him.

His akshara who was always bothered about him just left him today .
His father whom he had hated full life when the time came for him to say how much he love him his papa betrayed him and left him forever.

His Tai and tau who had treated him like their own child just left their child .
He looked at akshara's family his in laws who were laying just beside akshara 's body he smiled and thought akshara is so lucky that even in death she had her whole family.

At last he looked at his maa whom he had lived like hell.
Before akshara his maa and neil were his only family and he lost both .
He slowly played the recording as he want to hear that recording infront of his mom . A voice came and rang in the whole morgue.
"Beta.....ma...in...ja...nt..i..ho...ki...ha..ma..r..a...p...a..ri....v...a ...r....n...ah....i...ba....ch...a....a....u...r...ab.....sh...a....ya...d....main....nahi......ba...ch...o...ngi....pa....r...plz.....bet....a.....tu....zi...n...da...gi...jee...na....be...ta...p....lz...be...ta....apne.....ap...ko...kha...tam..mat...karna..ham....na...hi...toh....kya....hua...de...kh..na...ter...i....zin...dagi....ma....in.....p...hir.....khushi....yan......ayegi..kyuki....ko...i...ise...du..ni...ya...mai...n...ake...la...nah..i...hota....ye....ek...maa..ke...dua...hai...bas...t...u....zin....dag...i....se....mat...har....na....apn....e ....aap...ko....mat.....marna...sui...cid...mat...karna.....tuj....he...meri....Kasam.............

Recording stopped leaving the nurse and abhimanyu in tears.
Nurse was feeling sad as this young man lost everything at such young age.

And abhimanyu was feeling nothing but still his eyes was crying or maybe his heart was crying but the main was ssoo much that he was just not feeling the pain.

He without reacting gave the phone back to nurse and slowly kissed everyone family members forehead and slowly left with shaking steps .
Flashback end

Abhimanyu was thinking this and tears were making way from his eyes .
He thought his mother was soo wrong no one could ever give his happiness back.Some people are left alone he smiled sadly.

Only if he knew that a mother's blessings is never wasted .Nor a person is ever left alone in this world.

At that time he heard the announcement
that they have are about to land and they should tighten the seat belt.

As soon as the plane landed in London abhimanyu felt a different feeling in his heart a miracle is going to happen.

But he just shrugged the thought and disembark the flight .
Not knowing sometime intuition are not wrong.
