Ram stopped the car on reaching their home. He gently caressed her face. She looked tired. He decided to carry her to the room. Ram opened his door which made Priya to wake up. She straightened herself and got confused looking around.
Priya: yeh hum...
Ram: we are in our farmhouse.
Priya: par kyun it's a weekday. We have to go to work.
Ram: phir bhi we can spend our night here.
Priya: par
Ram: come on. Let's go.

Ram took Priya inside while the cook and the caretaker welcomed them happily. Ram smiled and chatted with him for few minutes before asking everyone to leave and return back when he called them. Priya went to have some water while Ram closed the door after making sure every servants went home.  Ram went and stood behind Priya who was sitting in a chair in the dining area drinking water. Ram started massaging her shoulder and neck softly while she relaxed under his touch.
Ram: Priya go and freshen up in the room we last time used. I will be back in a moment.
Priya: okey

Priya went to freshen up while  Ram went to warm the oil to massage her head. Ram went upstairs with oil to see his wife wiping her face in a towel. Ram settled himself in the foot of the bed and asked her to sit down. Priya looked at him questioningly. He smiled and started massaging her scalp making her close her eyes relaxing herself under his soft touch. He slowly massaged her gently relieving her from the pain. They just enjoyed their time in a comfortable silence. Ram slightly massaged her neck and shoulders as well. He pecked her forehead when she tried to look up at him. She held his hands tightly which was holding her face on both sides. She got up from her place and settled beside him on the bed. He took her in his embrace while she closed her eyes feeling blessed.

After few minutes, she got out of his embrace and made him sit down. She started massaging his scalp making him smile. She gave him a good massage and made him relax by relieving him from the stress. After completing the massage,Priya got down and settled beside him on the floor. Both sat there with their back against the bed. Ram dragged her to him while she snuggled more into him.
Ram: want to share?
Priya looked at him while he kissed her forehead and cajoled  her to share. She just cried bitterly hugging him tightly telling about her father.
Priya: why can't he love me Ram? No need love atleast he can treat me as a human being right? Why can't mom see your love? Why can't she treat you the way you deserve? What did we ever do to them to receive this treatment from them? Why can't we get the parents love like everyone else Ram? Don't we deserve that? Why can't our life be normal? Why is everyone hell bent on hurting us? Why can't they just leave us alone?
Ram: shhhhh bas bas
Priya: I can't see you getting hurt again and again. I don't know how to protect you from getting hurt. I want you to be safe. I want only  happiness for you Ram. I don't want to hurt you by misbehaving with mom but its becoming practically impossible for me to keep quiet.
Priya just held her head tightly and shouted arghhhh in frustration.
Ram: Priya look at me, relax jaan. Bas bas. Please look at me. Shhhh  I'm here jaan. Shhh
Priya hugged him tightly and cried her heart out which made Ram to tear up.
Priya:  sometimes I just want you for myself. I don't want to share you with anyone. I just want to be with you. I don't want anyone other than you.

Ram hugged her tightly and broke down. She is the only one who wants himself rather than anything he can offer using his name, power or money. With her he is just either her Ram or her Mr. Kapoor not the Ram Kapoor that the outer world knows.
She just needs him not any other damn thing he can offer.

Ram: what would I do without you? I can't think my life without you in it. I'm just yours Priya. No one will come between us and yes we do deserve the love of our parents. May be we got our share of love through each other.

Priya looked at him questioningly while Ram gave a teary smile and continued.
Ram: You know priya whenever I keep my head in your lap I feel contented. Your love is just pure like a mother's love for her child. The way you look after myself starting from my morning tea to till my dinner. You look after me like mother who will fuss over her kid. Sometimes I used to feel like a kid infront of you. Your love is nothing less than a mother's love priya. Your love for me gave me the warmth of my mother. In your lap I get my mother's love. I do miss mama Priya but after you entered in my life somewhere you helped me to enjoy her presence eventhough she is  present in my thoughts. If I look back your love did filled the vacuum created in my life due to mama's absence. So yes I got my share of mother's love eventhough I got it little late. I'm fulfilled with it. I don't want anything other than your love.
