"How long have you been pregnant for?"asked the doctor.

"Over a month now." I said.

Mom had forced me into seeing a doctor because I hadn't been keeping well. But isn't that obvious? Anyways, she had asked di to take me to the gynecologist for a regular check-up.

"Have you been distressed lately? Haven't you been taking a lot of rest?"she asked. Obviously, why wouldn't she? That man had left me incapable to sleep alone at night and I couldn't possibly be stress free with whatever had been happening in my life. No matter how hard I tried I ended up wasting my tears for him. UGH. "Excuse me..? Mrs..?" I was lost in my thoughts and forgot to answer her.

"Samthaan!" My sister instantly replied back. Like what!? Mrs Samthaan? I swear I would have stabbed her right there if she wouldn't have been my sister. Like my sister didn't get it at all. She said that.. 'Niti main jaanti hu, tera Parth.. Aayega.. dekhna tu' in the most dramatic way that she could. I wanted to forget him, but she wouldn't let him off my brain!

"Aao!" I stomped her feet with mine.

"Is there a problem?"asked the doctor.

"No, not at all. We're fine!" I said giving a sarcastic smile to my annoying sister.

"Okay.. See Mrs. Samthaan, you do not have to take stress at any stage of your pregnancy. You have to stay happy, that'll help the baby get good vibes. Whatever stresses you please let that go." I lost her at Mrs. Samthaan. I didn't hear what she said and kept nodding in a yes. My brain went on tour back to the most amazing months of my life and stopped at the most pathetic days. Everything came rushing to mind. Him.

"Are you listening to what I am saying?"she said snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Yes, yes... I am." I said.

"Are you really married young lady?"asked the doctor woman all of a sudden. What should I say? Yes? No? My sister had already declared me as a 'Mrs' but I couldn't possibly lie to my doctor. She should know the reason behind the stress and lack of sleep! And you never lie to your doctor..

"Of course! What a silly question doctor! I just addressed her as 'Mrs. Samthaan'." And my sister had to speak. Sometimes I really wondered was she even 25? She was worse than a 5 year old! Worse than Parth sometimes, like really.

"What is your problem!?" I muttered pulling her close to me.

"Nah.. I asked because you're too young, look at you, what are you... 20? 21?"asked the doctor.

"21." I replied.

"Where is your husband?" Okay I so wanted to answer this. I so wanted to tell her that.. One, I don't have a f***ing husband. Two, I was left impregnated by my boyfriend, of whom I have no clue now! But.. My sister had to poke in again.

"He's.. He's a very busy person! He's out for a tour, he'll be back soon."said my sister.

After a few more questions about my health she prescribed me some medicines and told me all the precautions I had to take. We soon left the doctor's cabin after the 'thank you so much' session.

"Di like seriously! Mrs. Samthaan!? Off on a tour!? Like really aur kuch nahi mila!?" I literally screamed at her as we left the hospital.

"Toh aur kya bolti? Tu ban sacchai ki devi and go tell the whole world about you being..."she lowered her tone "pregnant without getting married and on top of that you left the father of the baby."

"I left him because he left me with no choice. Di you know it." I gave her a stare and walked away. "And stop talking of him vo nahi aayega, I know him better than you do. So stop hoping!" I walked back to her and pulled her along.

"Aayega, you might know him better but you don't know one thing that I do."she looked at me hoping that I will ask her, but I didn't. "I know that he loves you. Niti look I know I promised I won't discuss him but I don't know, I have this feeling, he will come. Pyaar tujhe hai usse and hope main kar rahi hoon.. Sharam karle zara!" She taunted.

"Hai nahi tha." I said bluntly.

"Accha chodh! Sun, one selfie, come!" She pulled my hand and put her arm around shoulder, posing for a picture. Though I was not in a mood for it I faked a smile.

"Di hospital dikh raha hai, people will start making fuss of it." She was going to post that on the social networking sites and obviously seeing me in front of a hospital would have got my fans worried. Though I had left my show, I was still loved by my fans. My fame, whatever I had got from that show still stayed with me. I hadn't operated my social networking accounts in a long time but di was always on it so I did get updates about 'that' world I left behind. She had told me that Parth too left the show but I was least bothered about what he did.

"It doesn't matter. Let's go."

We were in the parking lot again arguing over 'my husband' thing.

"Di don't ever in life call him my husband.."

"Niti Taylor! Omg!" I suddenly heard someone scream. I turned around to look and I saw a girl standing behind me.

"Oh no, I am not in a mood for this right now." I said to myself.

"Did you say husband? Omg did you finally decide to get married to Parth!?"she looked more excited than even my sister then. I don't know why people were obsessed with me and him. They had always paired us up. Though we were paired together in real life but it was just for us to know. Some real good instincts the fans had. But right now, I wasn't up for PaNi crap. I was already irritated my by sister and I now this girl.

"Listen, one thing, never ever in life pair me up with that jerk! Kuch PaNi crap nahi hai ab! And he can never be my husband get that thing straight!" I felt my sister pull my hand and I realized what I had done. I was cursing myself inside. I don't know why I had been snapping at people lately. I got angry at the littlest things, I always wanted to be left alone yet I wanted people around me. I was going mad. He had been successful in driving me crazy even when he wasn't near me.

"Okay.."said that girl and went away.

"Okay? Like.. Okay?" I looked my sister. What had I done! Ugh.

"Okay." She smiled at me. "Get your ass in the car." I sat in and we drove off back home.

Present day..
Pune

"I will help you." I was glad that she had agreed to help me. I was desperate for getting my love back in my life.

"See.. First you need to have a lot of patience. A lot! And by a lot I mean a lot!" She sat on the bed and started to behave as if she was making a plan to rob a bank or something. But I listened to her like an obedient student. "What you did, she isn't forgiving you just like that. Bahut zyada patience rakhna hoga, she'll say she hates you, ek do thappad bhi maaregi lekin 'touch of love' samjh ke khaa lena thappad. But you if I would have been at her place I would have thrown you off a cliff and then asked you why you did that to me. I hope she doesn't do that." She giggled.

"Are you trying to help me or scare me? I know it won't be easy but I don't need your help on how to handle her, I know her and I can do that very well even now. All I need you is for what do I have to do? Just tell me that."

"Uske pass jaa usse maana! Duh."she was annoyed just because I refused her brilliant ideas.

"Haan but I don't know where she lives. Like I know Delhi mein, but that's about it. Where will I find her in that city ?" I was walking to and fro trying toe out what to when suddenly.. "Haan! I know!" I started searching for my phone like mad.

"Kyaa?"she was still sitting on the bed like a clueless fool.

I didn't respond to her. I found my phone fast and logged into my Instagram account.
"Parth seriously ye Instagram karne ka time nahi hai tu pagal hai kya!?" Akku screamed at me and stood up on the bed.

"Genius, I am trying to find her location here. Maybe her or maybe Radhika, kisi me toh uske ghar ke andar picture liya hoga and maybe I get the location of her house." I was scrolling like idiots and tapping the screen of my phone.

"Tu itna smart dikhta nahi..yaar. Wait, even I'll look for something through my account." We both dug into our phones scrolling for any help. The problem that I faced was that I wasn't following Radhika and her account was private. And I possibly couldn't follow her because if I did people would have their stupid theories and Niti would know! I didn't want to even hint her about this because I knew if she knew that I was coming for her, she'd run away from that place too. Huh. Why was she so difficult.

The only option I was left with was to look for a clue in Niti's account. I scrolled down for a picture of hers at her home but I lost myself midway. I lost myself into her pictures. Her face, her big pretty eyes, her innocent, beautiful smile. How could I let her go? How could I not trust her? How could I be so stupid to hurt her! I stopped at a picture of hers in which she was wearing a baby pink gown fitting perfectly to her body. Though it was just a simple outfit it looked so beautiful on her. It had been over a week and I didn't see her, I didn't hear her, I didn't feel her! At that moment I swear, I missed her a lot! I just wanted to run to her and take her in my arms and kiss her till we were out of breath and apologize to her and our baby for leaving them like that!

"Parth.. I think you might want to have a lookat this! Ahahahaha!" I was brought back to the reality of my life by Akanksha's laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" I asked her while she was busy bursting out at the screen of her phone. "You're going to have a hard time bro.." She burst out laughing again.

"Bata toh kya hua!?" I was getting impatient with her.

"There's this article, about Niti, some fan met her and she made a comment about you." She spoke in brakes between her laughing session.

"What does it say?" I asked her to read it out to me.

"Niti Taylor, the MTV Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan fame..." She started from the start.

"Cut the crap and come to the point!" I said getting even more restless.

"Okay it says a fan met her outside some hospital maybe.. And the fan said that she was talking about some.. Husband or something like that to her sister and when she was asked that had she finally decide to get married to you she bursted out on that poor girl saying she's never marrying a jerk like you." She laughed and giggled while she read this. " I swear she's going to give you a tough time!"

"Why was she at the hospital?"I kept repeating that line. All that went into my head was that she was at the hospital and that I was a jerk. I didn't care about what the rumors would be like now, i didn't anymore care about my social image.
"But why was she at the hospital? Was she okay? Was our baby okay?" Thousands of questions filled my mind.

"Arre chill, she looks fine, see her sister.. I guess.. Posted a picture of them both." She handed me her phone and I saw her. It was her latest picture. She was with her sister, Radhika. I recognised her because Niti had once shown me her family picture.

She looked so weak yet so beautiful. She was faking that smile, I could figure out easily because I knew what her real smile was like, not a bit like what she had in that picture. I was dying to see her. I wanted to see her right now! I wanted to know if she was okay or not! If our baby was okay or not. She hadn't been sleeping well, that I could make out from her swollen eyes. I knew she got so used to sleeping in my arms that she couldn't fall asleep otherwise. What had I done! I had given her so much of pain and now that I had realized it, she I was sure, didn't want to even look at me! I wanted to see her that very moment. I didn't know how but I had to.

"Akku." I said after a while.

"Hmm?"

"I have just one last option left." And my last option was right in front of my eyes.
