Siya's birthday was approaching in the coming week, and Pravin was thinking about her previous birthday celebration that how he had celebrated her birthday.
He was looking at the old photo albums and videos on his laptop and recalling those moments. Danny came suddenly inside the room and said"Papa I want remote control car on my birthday"
"I will bring it beta, go and study now" he replied and went away.
Pravin looked at Siya's toys, comic books, and dresses and recalled how much she wanted those comic books on her birthday, and her mother had gifted her those dresses.
Whenever they went shopping, Siya always demanded new dolls and teddy bears.
Whenever they went to a nearby temple, Siya loved plants and greenery. She always used to play there with ducks and rabbits.
He then opened one small drawer in which numerous medals and trophies, which were won by Siya were inside. While he was looking at these, Shikha called him out "Pravin listen"
"Yes," he locked the room and came to her "Yes what happened Shikha?"
"I am going to my maika for some days along with Danny "
"Ok you can go" he permitted her
"Ok I am going, take care of yourself"
After she left, Pravin went to the temple and prayed to Bhagwan Krishna for Siya "hey Kanha, please keep my lovely Siya safe and healthy"
"I know that you will not forgive me for what I did with that little girl. Next week is her birthday so please shower your blessings on her Kanha" he said with tears.
After he reached home, Abhijeet came to meet him "Pravin where were you ?"
"Oh Abhijeet I had gone to the temple" he replied to him
"I wanted to tell you that Ananya and Advira are missing Siya very much," Abhijeet told Pravin
"I knew that they will feel lonely without her because they used to play together," he said
"Her birthday is approaching next week Abhijeet, I pray to Kanha for her well-being. I don't know how is she" then Pravin went away sadly to his room.
"Siya baby when is your birthday," Betty asked her while serving her fruits
"My birthday I... I... I don't ... know.."
"Siya try to recall," she said
"I don't remember anything...." she scratched her mind while replying, which made Betty happy and she went away.
During lunchtime, while serving Bett anaIi d "Ma'am and Sir, I want to tell you something good"
"What say, Betty ?" Gordon asked while putting the pepper in his salad
"Siya is slowly forgetting about her memories" she replied
"Really?"Samantha asked while helping herself to the bacon and fish fries
"Yes, ma'am and sir. Today when I asked her about her birthday, then she said that she doesn't remember " Betty replied while placing the cutlery on the table
"That's nice. That's what we wanted it, Gordon"
"Yes, you're right Samantha. Thank you Betty for telling us"
"Mention not sir" then she excused herself and went away
That day only Samantha and Gordon decided that the day when Siya come home will be her birthday.
