"Why are we here Sanyukta? Whose place is this?"

RD asked.

"You will know."
SY simply replied. They were standing in front of a flat in a medium size residential building in a sufficiently developed area of middle class people.
She ranged the bell.

"Arey beta dekho to zara darwaze par kaun hai."
A man's coughing voice echoed inside the closed door.

RD got aware. He had heard that voice before. A wave of mixed feelings started flowing in his mind and soul.
Just then the door was opened.

"YOU..?
What the hell are you doing here?"
The person literally roared.

RD looked at SY in shock,anger and confusion. His eyes were asking her thousand questions. Meanwhile hers were trying to convince him. She held his hand to calm him down thinking he might do anything.

"Why Sanyukta?"
He asked as he jerked off her hand from his.

"Randhir, listen. I..."

"Before I do something and you regret coming here, just leave. "
The person on the opposite side of the door said before SY could continue.

"No. Pls listen to me Re..."

"Kaun hai beta? Itne zor se kisse baat kar rahe ho?"
The same old voice interrupted her once again.

"See by yourself dad. Some people really don't know the meaning of what is shame."
The person said in an irritated and angry tone.

"Randhir..? Sanyukta..?
Ab kya karne aye ho yaha ?"
The man was not at all happy to see them. Happy was a wrong word instead he was not expecting them in his wildest dreams. He didn't even looked into their eyes neither had a good look of them.

"Hello Bajaj sir..."
SY finally spoke. Meanwhile RD was looking down controlling his temper. His palms were tightened into fists. SY once again held his wrist.

About Last Night ...

SY was going to her room after clearing the stuff when she saw her father coming to her.

"What happened Papa? Do you need anything?"
She asked.

"No dear. I don't want anything. I just came here to ask you for help. "

"Ask me ? Since when you started asking me for anything? "

"Oh come on. You've grown enough to take ur decisions by urself. You're not my little princess u used to be. So I thought I should ask you. "
Kishore said in a teasing way.

"Papa, now u r embarrassing me. And no matter how old I get, I'll always be ur princess."

"That's true. You'll always be my little princess.
Anyways, I was asking that can you give me head massage ? It's unbearable. And also my legs. "

"Of course Papa. Let's go. It's been a while since I gave you massage."

"Yes it is. We'll get some time together."
And they left.

In the room, both the father daughter
duo were sitting silently until Kishore broke the silence.

"Is there anything going in ur mind?
Looks like u r in a deep thought. "

"Nothing Papa. I was just thinking about whatever happened today.
Thank you so much for giving us another chance. U r d best. "

"Anything for u my sweetheart. I'm ur father so I had to do that. And TBH I also wanted to see u happy, in any way...
Now, tell me what's bothering u? "
