WAARIS ( THE SUCCESSOR )

The Agnihotris

Aaj 65 din hogaye ... Kuch aata Patah nahi hain unka ... Kahan gaye .. kis haal mein hain .. nahi Patah ... kuch samjh nahi aaraha ... Diary likhni ki adat toh bachpan se thi ... But woh aadat se zaroorat ban jayegi yeh nahi Patah tha .. ghar mein sab koi ek dusre ko sambhalraha hain ... Ek saath ro koi nahi raha ...
But harkoi apne apne kamro pe kaise hain .. woh wohi jaante hain ...
Iss ghar ki hasi jaise kho si chuki hain ... par umeed nahi tuti meri ... Mujhe Patah hain sidharth zaroor aayenge wapas ...

papa jaante hain ... woh yeh aisas dilate rehte hain hume .. But keh nahi rahe mujhe .. bas keh rahe hain .. woh jaldi wapas aa jayega ..
papa ... Haan .. mere rishte bohot gehre se lagte hain yahan.. mera sasural .. abhi mujhe apna zyada lagta hain ... Ma puch puch ke thak chuki hain ... Itni si shanti hain ki papa ko shayad Patah hain woh kahan hain .. par agar nahi Patah hua toh ? Agar bas mujhe aur ma ko dilasa dene ke liye keh rahe ho toh ? Patah nahi .. mein jab tak unhe sahi salamat nahi dekhleti .. mujhe chain nahi aayega .. kahan hain aap sidharth ... Woh bohot pareshan the .. aur ro bhi rahe the ..mujhe kuch samajh nahi aaraha hain .. kya sahi .. kya galat .. aap kahan hain .. kyu aise achanak bina bole chale gaye .. bas aur nahi horaha mujhse sidharth .. mujhe chahiye aap mere saamne...

Shehnaaz closed the diary and wiped the tears which leaked from her eyes .
Rakesh Agnihotri watched his daughter-in-law whimpering yet was helpless . He walked upto her and stroked her hair lovingly with moist eyes . Shehnaaz looked up to his eyes and few tears again escaped .
"Plzz papa" she whimpered almost inaudibly .
Rakesh ji sighed, he never had felt this powerless. He smiled weakly and left the room unable to ignore her pleading eyes .
He couldnt stay silent anymore .. it felt like a sin ..

Flashback

1 month after marriage

" Kya hua apko ? Aap aise khade kyu hain ? Aapko job pe nahi jaana ? " Shehnaaz asked to a lost Sidharth .

" Pata nahi ... " He replied and wrapped his hands around her .

Shehnaaz was ironing his shirt and sidharth was just in his shorts . His back muscles flexed with his arm movements . Shehnaaz would always turn red finding herself ogling her husband . But right now , she failed to feel the heaviness in his heart

"Kheyal rakhna apna ..." Sidharth kissed her forehead .

"Aap kab tak aiyega ?" Shehnaaz passed his handkerchief to him . Sidharth stilled . He sighed and managed to smile a little .

" Jald hi " his voice turned heavy and a tear rolled down his eyes .
" Sidharth kya baat hain ... Aap aise kyu kar rahe hain ... "
He kissed her forehead for the last time and said " mujhe der horahi hain ... Bye ... "
Suddenly , her insides churned watching him leave ... Reason unknown..
She fisted his shirt resulting it to crumble . Her intuitions have always been correct ,and it scared her .

Wearing a sad smile , he left .... to not return till today ...

The Chauhans

" Shivaansh baba " Malti ji , the head chef of Chauhan mansion , sighed watching him .
" Aunty ... Mujhse nahi horaha .. bas nahi horaha " Shivaansh cried .

After some time ... He collected himself and took his breakfast from her hands .
" Mein nahi bacha payi tumhe ... Tumhari maa se wada kiya tha maine .. parrr " Malti Ji turned silent .
" Kismat se kaun lad paya hain ? " Shivaansh sighed .

I know it's a really short update ... I know mein gayab thi ...
But internships and all mein itni gandi tareeke se fas gayi thi .. ek clear mind nahi tha likhne ka ..
