Hello ! Welcome to part 24....

A Few days have passed, everything at Rao mansion has been calm and secure because of Raghav's sharp intellect and top-notch security, a protective shield that envelops the area, deterring anyone from causing trouble. Siya, after realising the reasons and importance of caution, follows all security arrangements set by Raghav when heading to work without any objection.

Even at the hospital, Raghav's trusted associate, Harman, is appointed to ensure Siya's safety. Allowing her to focus on her work without any worries, dedicating herself wholeheartedly. Surprisingly, in these days, her senior, Dr. Naik, refrains from causing any unnecessary trouble, adding to the overall sense of tranquility. And anyway, now that he has gone after his one week visit, everything will be normal only until his next visit.

Well, Today is Teej, a special day for Siya, and she's on leave dedicating the day to observe her Teej fast !

Saumya's gentle footsteps echoed in the hallway as she followed her mother, yearning to be heard, "Maa, just listen to me for a moment..." she pleaded softly, hoping for a moment of connection.

But her mother, lost in the rhythm of her morning routine, turned with a furrowed brow, "Not now, Saumya. I'm already running late for the morning prayers. Despite waking up early today, I haven't managed to perform the puja yet..." she sighed, a hint of frustration creeping into her voice.

Raghav's mother continued her brisk pace towards the mandir, her thoughts consumed by the rituals awaiting her. "It's Siya's first Teej fast, and we're already delayed. I wonder what she must be thinking, feeling as if no one cares..." she murmured to herself, a pang of guilt tugging at her conscience. 

As they neared the mandir, the soothing chants of devotion filled the air halting them in their tracks...

Jai Parvati Mata, Jai Parvati Mata, Brahma Sanatan Devi, Shubh Fal Ki Data ।॥ Jai Parvati Mata...॥

The melodious chant filling the house, drew her attention towards the source..

Arikul Kantak Nasani, Nij Sevak Trata, Jagjanani Jagdamba, Harihar Gun Gata ।॥ Jai Parvati Mata...॥

And there, amidst the flickering light of the diyas, stood Siya, her devotion evident in every graceful movement as she performed the aarti. 

Her presence, a beacon of serenity amidst the chaos, seemed to calm the storm within Raghav's mother's heart

Her presence, a beacon of serenity amidst the chaos, seemed to calm the storm within Raghav's mother's heart. Even the house staff, usually bustling with activity, stood solemnly with joined hands, drawn into the sacredness of the moment. 

Singh Ko Vahan Saje, Kundal Hai Satha, Dev Vadhu Jas Gavat, Niratya Karat Ta Tha ।॥ Jai Parvati Mata...॥

Saumya's smile softened her features as she whispered, "This is exactly what I wanted to tell you..."
