A STEP

.

The morning rays makes it's way through the open window towards Siya who is lazily sleeping on the bed of her room. She had herself faced towards the side of the window and she could witness at the beautiful atmosphere which has been created after the rains of yesternight. The room was completely silent with the cool breeze making a light sound, the curtains dancing in air, and the wind chandler producing a beautiful tune. Still all these creations do not effect Siya and she keep on staring at an unknown point outside the window.

The previous day was really a difficult one for Siya. She has never imagined the day of meeting Ram to be like this and that too all of a sudden without her preparing anything. She was preparing herself to get back into her normal and previous life, she was getting herself ready to again face those all the questions which she has left unanswered to her family, she was getting ready to face Ram after six years. She knew that the world would form their concentration back on her when she will be back in her life. She was preparing to face that too, she was gaining confidence and that positive attitude to answer the world. But then, yesterday it felt like all her "preparations" could not change anything inside her heart and cannot give her any confidence. At first she was not that ready to go at Raghuvanshi Palace, but looking at the upcoming and building circumstances which Luv Kush has created for her, Siya prepared the best to step out of the house and to step into the Raghuvanshi Palace. Along with Pawan on her side, Siya has developed that courage to face Ram. She has decided to have all those misunderstanding getting cleared once she stood in front of Ram. She has decided to have a talk with her sisters, with her family, who were bearing the punishments of the deeds they didn't created. She wanted to apologize each one of them for her sudden disappearance from their life. Siya had decided to make everything back at its place. But when the moment came in front of her, when she was actually standing in front of Ram - she was again back to zero.! Nothing came out of her mouth, not a single word for anyone. All she was able to do at that time was to take Luv and Kush with her while ignoring each and everyone present in front of her. Siya did not understood what has happened to her at that moment, but she didn't gained that confidence to stand in front of Ram. May be because of the guilt inside her, may be because of the complaints for Ram, may be because of the unknown fears which has covered her heart at that time. But all these negative thoughts has covered Siya at that time and she was not able to speak anything to Ram.

The time since she has came back from the Raghuvanshi Palace, Siya has caged herself in her room. At once Ratnakar and Bhargavi have visited to have a talk with her but Siya has refused to have any talks with them. She was so engrossed into her thoughts that she didn't even sleep for a second and was continuously staring at different points in the room- sometimes outside the window, sometimes at the photo of Luv Kush on the side table and sometimes at nothing.! It was few moments back when she realized that the new day has arrived and the bright shining sun has made it's way through the dark night. The whole night she was thinking about her journey of these six years- how she has isolated herself from her family, how she has given birth to Luv and Kush, how she has raised them all alone, and how she has missed Ram in this entire journey of hers. Not a single day or moment it was when Siya didn't missed Ram by her side. At that moment, she got to remember one such incident of past which has made her eyes to go moist...

FLASHBACK □□□□□

The almost nine months pregnant Siya was sitting ideally on the floor while resting her back on the bed. She had her legs folded at side and her both the hands placed softly on her womb. She had those light tears in her eyes while she was caressing her womb softly at a regular pace.

SIYA- bas... kuch dinn aur. After which you two will be welcomed in this world.

Siya has whispered those words while still caressing her womb and that small tears making their way from her eyes towards her cheeks.
