Hey guys...

Enjoy this part...😊

The next day...

In the morning, Raina got ready to go to her school and came running towards the dining table. Rajveer, Aalekh and Abhimanyu were already there with Naveen and Shalini. Shalini was the biggest fan of Rajveer Singh Shekhawat. He was her favorite singer whereas, Naveen was making faces while looking at the boys. Shalini said...

Shalini (In an excitement) - Main aapko bata nahi sakti ke main kitni khush hu aapse milkar. Meri friends sunegi ke main Rajveer Singh Shekhawat se mili hu, to vo to jal bhun jayegi. Maine aapka har gaana suna hai. In fact, maine aur Raina ne. Hum dono aapka music bahot enjoy karte hai.

He was a bit surprised to know that his own daughter also enjoys his creations. He was quite happy about that. He smiled at her and said...

Rajveer (With a polite smile) - Thank you, Mrs. Ahaluwalia. I appreciate that.

Shalini (With a smile) - Oh... You can just call me Shalini. You can call us by our names. Don't be so formal.

Rajveer (Caressing Raina's cheek) - Thank you for taking care of my wife and daughter, Shalini... (With a sad smile) Ke jo mujhe karna chahiye tha.

Naveen (Taking a deep breath) - It's... Okay, Rajveer. Look, mujhe nahi pata ke tum dono ke beech sach me kya problem hai but agar tum dono ki wajah se Raina ko suffer karna pada kisi bhi tarah, to main tum dono ko kabhi maaf nahi karuga. Vo mujhe "Mama" bulati hai. Mama yaani do maae... Tum mera matlab samjh rahe ho na? Jo karna chahte ho karo, magar is almost broken family ko kisi bhi tarah ek karo. Past me kya hua, usse koi farak nahi padta. Tum dono ke present ko, yaani Raina ko apne Mata aur Pita... Dono ki hi zaroorat hai. Koi ek hi dusre ki kami puri karde aisa nahi ho sakta itna samjh lo, okay?

Rajveer (With a smile) - I will, Naveen... Thank you, mujhpe itna bharosa dikhane ke liye. Varna mujhe to laga tha ke tum nahi chahoge ke main tumhari behen ke aaspas bhi kahi rahu.

Naveen didn't answer him but just nodded at him. Raina asked...

Raina (Sadly holding Rajveer's hand) - Kya aap Raina ko chhodke chale jayege, Dadda? Par Raina ko to aapke aur Mumma ke sath rehna hai. Please, Raina ko dubaara chhodke mat jayiye na. I promise, Raina ache se behave karegi, Mumma aur Dadda ko kabhi pareshaan nahi karegi. Please, Dadda...!!!

Listening to that, everyone got sad but particularly two people were the ones who were looking heartbroken. The first one was Rajveer who was looking at his daughter helplessly and sadly. The second one was Naina who heard everything from the beginning. She hid behind the door so that no one could see her tears. He said...

Rajveer (Taking Raina in his lap) - Dadda promise karte hai ke Dadda aapko aur Mumma ko jald hi apne sath le jayege. Hum alag nahi rahege. Dadda puri koshish karege ke Dadda ne jo galti ki hai, uski maafi Dadda ko Mumma se mil jaye. Fir hum sab ek sath rahege. Udas mat hona bache, thik hai?

She didn't understand that much but still nodded her head excitedly. Naina also wiped her tears and reached the dining table. She wished good morning to everyone but she was trying to not look at them. No one noticed her red eyes but Rajveer did. He didn't say anything but felt bad about the whole situation. They were almost done with their breakfast and at that time, the bell rang and Naina opened the door. It was Muskan, her assistant.
