RISHTA

RISHTA PART - 18

Dadi gets overjoyed seeing the baby... everyone is happy with the baby's arrival...
At night,
Aman comes inside ananya's room and sees her and the baby sleeping peacefully..he kisses on her forehead and leaves...ananya opens her eyes and looks on...she sits on the bed and tears roll down from her eyes...

Next morning,
Arjun wakes up hearing baby 's cry...he takes baby into his arms and tries to cool him but everything goes in vain..he sees ananya is not present in the room.. everyone comes there hearing the baby's cry..

Dadi:Arjun..where is your wife? How could she leave the baby crying? I think he is hungry..get your wife now...

Arjun knocks at the washroom door and finds the door unlocked and empty..he gets worried and sees a letter near the table..Arjun reads the letter and gets shocked...
Arjun:ananya regained her memories and she left everyone to punish herself...

Everyone gets shocked...Arjun runs from there to search her...Arjun searches for ananya everywhere...

Meanwhile,
Ananya walks on the aimlessly..she feels tired as she is a mother now...she cries thinking about everything that happened to her..

Ananya in mind:why should I even live now? When the ones who did it with me are happily enjoying and i suffered everything in these months...i suffered taunts and my character defamation because of them...i don't want to live anymore... maybe the wounds on my body would be healed but wounds on my heart would never heal....

Ananya comes to a cliff and stands at the dead end to take her own life...
Ananya in mind:what a sad life iam leading..i forgot everything like it never happened and even  gave birth to the baby which is result of that dreadful night...i can't blame my baby because it's innocent..i need to die and i don't have a reason to live....

She tends to jump but Arjun holds her hand and pulls her towards him..ananya falls on top of Arjun..she hurriedly gets up..Arjun holds her hand tightly

Ananya:Arjun..please let me die..
Arjun:tell me one reason why you want to die..
Ananya:iam hating myself isn't it enough for one good reason?

Arjun:anu..aren't you the strong brave courageous anu who used to stand for herself?do you think this is the first time you faced this? You already faced something like this and came back stronger..don't you think you need to come back stronger too?

Ananya:Arjun..my life is ruined..that time I was edge of getting molested and this time it happened on top of that i gave birth to my baby who is result of that...when my baby becomes old and questions about the father? Should I say she have 3 fathers?

Arjun gets shocked hearing what ananya said..
Ananya wasn't there when DNA results came and she doesn't know Arjun is the father though she knows what happened between them on the Sangeet night

Arjun:three? Do you remember them? Just tell me iam gonna make them pay for their sins...iam not gonna leave those bastards..

Ananya:i don't remember them...i begged them asking to leave me but they.......they...didn't let me leave....they...forced....me.....i can still see that night clearly infront of me...they hitted me until I blackout....when i was in semiconscious and begged them..they never listened to me and today they left me with scars which cannot be healed anytime...
Saying this she falls on her kneels and cries loudly...Arjun falls on his knees before her and cups her face..

Arjun:anu..iam there for you...no one have any right to say about you...you cannot fight with the society when you are blaming yourself...it's not your fault...and that baby is ours...don't think that iam pitying the baby...iam the father of the baby and i don't think you remembered what happened on Sangeeth night..

Ananya looks at him and remembers what happened on Sangeeth night....
Arjun:so please..let us start new...iam gonna fight against everyone for you..if the world is one-side and you are on other side too..iam ready to fight against the world if you are on my side...i love you and always i do...

Saying this Arjun hugs ananya and ananya hugs him back and cries..
Arjun:cry how much you want today and tomorrow onwards you aren't going to cry anymore for what happened that day...your value is still same in my eyes and you are innocent and pure because you have the kind heart which always happens to help the need....iam not going to say iam gonna accept you because Iam not the worth of saying that i should accept you..please accept me as yours because you have all rights to do it..accept me as your protector and shield...

Ananya looks at him with tears and hugs him..Arjun carasess her hairs and calms her down...he takes her towards the car holding her hand and makes her sit and he drives...

Ananya in mind:maybe this is destinied to happen in my life because maybe then only i will know my worth..it actually may happened that day If Arjun didn't saved me..back then if it really happened i may chose the death because then i didn't have courage to start a new life like today...

Ananya holds Arjun's arm and bends her head on Arjun's shoulder..Arjun holds her hand and reassures her while driving with another hand..
