Part 2

"Can we see her ?"asked Anjali.

"Yeah. You can" said the doctor and left from there.

Both Anjali and Arnav entered the room to see the lady who was sleeping on the bed.

"Sheetal!" exclaimed Arnav as soon as he saw her.

"Chote. Do you know her ?"asked Anjali.

"Yeah Di. She studied with me in Harvard" said Arnav, " But I am not in touch with her after I left college"

They both heard a small moan and found Sheetal trying to open her eyes.

"Sheetalji" Anjali went near her and sat beside her.

Sheetal opened her eyes and looked at Anjali.

"How are you feeling ?"asked Anjali.

"I am fine just a little headache" said Sheetal trying to sit. Anjali helped in sitting on the bed. That is when Sheetal saw Arnav(Or may be acted).

"Arnav!" said Sheetal with surprise(fake one)

"How are you feeling Sheetal ?"asked Arnav.

"I am fine but what are you doing here ?"asked Sheetal.

" This is my sister Anjali. You fell under our car. So, Di called me and when I came, I saw it's you" said Arnav.

"Ohh." Said Sheetal.

"Madamji. These people hit you with their car. Should we call police ?"asked one of the man.

"Arey NO No. It is not your fault. It is my fault. I came on the wrong side" said Sheetal.

" Happy Now!! Did you heard what she said ? Now, leave from here" said Arnav to the men standing there.

The men went away from there.

"Sheetal. When did you came to India ?"asked Arnav.

"Three weeks back Arnav" said Sheetal.

"Mom" the boy entered the room.

"Aarav" said Sheetal and gestured him to come in.

Anjali, then remembered about the boy who is Sheetal's child but she was surprised that Sheetal was neither worried nor enquired about Aarav from the time she came to conscious. Even now, she had a plain reaction on her face seeing Aarav after surviving an accident not serious though.

Aarav came near to her and hugged Sheetal to which she reciprocated, then she kissed his forehead.

Anjali shrugged off her doubts seeing it.. May be she is just over thinking.

"Sheetal. Is he your son ?"asked Arnav.

"Yeah Arnav. He is my son Aarav" said Sheetal.

"Hi big boy" Arnav said ruffling Aarav's hair.

"Aarav. He is Arnav, my friend and she is his sister Anjali" said Sheetal.

Aarav smiled to both of them while Anjali touched his cheeks lovingly.

"Sheetal. Say me your husband's number. I will call him and inform him about you" said Arnav.

Sheetal stayed silent hearing it even Aarav's face too fell.

Both Arnav and Anjali looked at each other confused.

"I am a single mother Arnav" said Sheetal, " I have no one in this world other than Aarav"

Anjali and Arnav felt sorry for her.

" I am sorry.. I don't know Sheetal" said Arnav.

"It's Ok Arnav" said Sheetal wiping her tears.

Just then Sheetal's mobile rang. She lifted the call.

Hearing to other side, Sheetal said, " How can you people do this ? I met with an accident and I was late in paying money. I will come now and pay."

...................................................

"What!! How can you do that without asking me ? Where would I go now with my child ?" said Sheetal with tears in her eyes.

Arnav and Anjali again looked at each other..

"Hello !! Listen to me. Hello" Sheetal cut the call and cried.

"Sheetal. Is everything OK ?"asked Arnav.

"No Arnav. I need to go immediately. Aarav, let's go" said Sheetal and tried to get up from the bed but she winced in pain holding her head and fell down on the bed.

"Mom"

"Sheetal"

"Sheetal ji" Anjali came forward and held her.

"Sheetal Relax. What's the problem ?"asked Arnav.

"Arnav. Actually, I am staying in a hotel now. I asked them to extend my stay in the room in the morning. They said if I reach by five in the evening and pay money, they will extend my stay. Now, see, I met with accident and since I didn't went to the hotel, they allotted the room to someone else. They are asking me to come and vacate the room." Said Sheetal crying.

"Why don't you ask them to give another room for you ?"asked Arnav.

"They don't have any other rooms. Their hotel is full. Where will I go at this time with a child ? I don't have any relatives in this city to reside for few days in their home. " Said Sheetal crying.

"Sheetal ji." Anjali called and Sheetal looked at her, " You can stay in our house until you get fine and get an accommodation"

"No NO Anjali ji. How can I stay in your house ? I will look some other means." Said Sheetal.

"Arey Sheetal ji. There is nothing like that. It is because of us, this accident happened and you couldn't reach back to hotel. So, indirectly, it is we who are responsible for your this situation." Said Anjali.

"But Anjali ji.... How can I ? What will your family say ?"said Sheetal keeping an uncomfortable face.

" Don't worry.. My family will understand.. You are coming with us. That's it.. We will first go to hotel, there you vacate the room and then, we can go to RM" said Anjali.

"OK. If you say so" said Sheetal.

"I will call home and say to prepare a guest room for you both" said Anjali and went outside followed by Arnav.

"Di.. Why did you ask Sheetal to stay in our house ?"said Arnav clearly not liking this idea.

"Chote. Sheetal ji is in this situation because of us, then it is our duty to help her. She will just stay for two or three days." said Anjali.

Arnav didn't said anything.

In RM:

Akash along with family is in the hall when the landline rang.

"HP. See who is it ?"said Manorama.

HP lifted the call and it was Anjali who asked him to prepare a guest room.

" Who is it HP ji ?"asked Payal placing a hand over her four months pregnant belly.

"Payal Bhabi. Anjali Didi called. She asked me to prepare a guest rooms. Guests are coming to our house" said HP.

"Guests!! Who they might be ?"asked Manorama looking at Nani who shrugged off her shoulders.

Akash didn't inform family about accident as he knew both his mother and grand mother will make a mountain out of hill. He just informed them that Anjali called Arnav as there was a problem in college issue.

Sheetal was discharged from the hospital. Sheetal, Aarav, Anjali and Arnav went to the hotel where Sheetal stayed, vacated the room and came to RM.

Payal opened the door and smiled at Arnav, Anjali. She then looked at Sheetal and Aarav.

"They might be the guests" thought Payal and welcomed them.

Akash, Manorama and Nani too came into the living room.

Anjali introduced Sheetal and Aarav to everyone. She explained them about Sheetal's accident too.

Nani, Manorama and Payal shot an angry look towards Akash for lieing to them.

HP showed Sheetal and Aarav guest room while the family made them feel comfortable.

After sometime, Sheetal and Aarav came downstairs freshening up, they had dinner with family.

Whole family sat down to chit chat after dinner. It was their routine to discuss about the day and some random things.

Sheetal and Aarav too sat down with them. They both are quietly listening to their talks.

Arnav seemed to lost in his thoughts.

"Chote. Where were you lost ?"asked Anjali.

"Nothing Di" said Arnav.

"We all know Bhai where you are lost." Said Akash.

Arnav raised his eyebrow while the family giggled.

"Haan Chote. We know you are missing someone terribly" said Anjali.

"Arey Anjali Bitiya. Not one.. Two" said Manorama.

"Haan Mami. You are right" said Anjali giggling while Arnav rolled off his eyes.

"About whom you are talking ?"asked Sheetal confused.

Just then door bell rang and all were confused as well as surprised.

"Who might be at this time ? It is 10'o clock" said Anjali then shouted for HP to open the door.

HP opened the door and his face broke into a huge smile.

Even the Raizadas face grew into a huge smile and surprise.

"We are talking about those two Sheetal ji who makes everyone in this house happy with their antics" said Anjali proudly.

Sheetal turned and looked at the door.

There stood, Mrs. Khushi Arnav Singh Raizada with her ever radiant smile carrying an ten month old Aashi Arnav Singh Raizada in her arms who also had a huge smile on her face just like mother.

Aashi Arnav Singh Raizada:

I would feel glad if you drop a word about this angel.
