A white luxury car entered the premises of a two-storey bungalow. As the car halted, a young man got down of the passenger seat and opened the back seat door. He extended his hand for help his wife to get out of the car, who seated on the back seat with his mother and his protective instinct urged to order her and he uttered in soft voice.

"Naina... sambhal ke." But her a quick glance at him was enough to shut his mouth.

Meantime his mother approached them and commanded him to take his wife inside the house. "Sameer... Naina ko andar le chal."

Sameer wrapped his arms around his wife's shoulder and led her to the house. But Vishakha stopped them at the threshold and welcome her daughter-in-law with an aarti. She caressed her cheek with love. "Andar aao beta."

Naina entered the house with an emotionless face, earlier whenever she crossed this threshold, there was a hope and excitement in her eyes. But today was different emotion which was beyond his comprehension.

As both Sameer and Naina entered the house, an old lady welcomed them. Sameer touched her feet and Naina followed him. She blessed them with a warm and genuine smile.

"Kaise ho beta." The old lady asked Sameer and he answered giving her a soft smile. "Hum dono theek hai...aap kaisi hai aur aapke ghutano ka dard kaisa hai."

"Jab thand jyada hoti hai tab dard hota hai, abhi dard nahi hai." She replied to assuage his worry.

After some chitchat they both left for their room and the old lady asked in a sad voice.

"Vishakha... Naina kitni chup si ho gayi hai... lagta hi nahi ki ye hamari Naina hai."

"Haan Mummy ji." Vishakha concerned voice echoed in the living room and she said further with a worried face.

"Mummy ji Naina bahut bade sadme se gujar rahi hai aur use abhi hamare saath ki zarurat thi, isliye Sameer ko hamare saath yahan shift hone ko kaha, bechara akele kaise sambhalta...wo to maan hi nahi raha tha, par Naina ki halat dekhkar mushkil se mana hai... please aap use kuch mat..."

But she was cut by her mother-in-law. "Bhala mai kyo kuch kahungi....ye ghar Sameer ka bhi hai jab chahe aa sakta hai.... aur tune theek kiya... Naina ko abhi hum sabki zarurat hai...uske chehare se hasi hi chali gayi hai."

"Thank you mummy ji." Vishakha thanked of her mother-in-law to support Naina.

As Sameer had brought his wife to Delhi for giving her a safe and family environment. That night knowing about Naina's thoughts, he had terrified to think that, what she would do if he couldn't reach the terrace on time and this thought made him helpless. He finally decided to shift to Delhi with his family as Naina was more important than anything else.

But there were some other reasons for shifting to Delhi. Sometimes when the environment changes, the mentality of the people also changes and he had prayed the same for Naina also. And he did not want Naina to remember that incident again and again while staying in that house. He wanted a complete family, which both of them were missing for the last few years and Naina needed a family support right now.

"Mummy... Sameer bhaiya aur bhabhi aa gaye..." Deepika barged question as soon as she returned from the college and she sprinted towards his room as her mother nodded her head in acceptance.

She firstly looked her bhabhi who was sleeping, then she clinged to her brother and sobbed. "Bhaiya..."

Sameer patted her back controlling his own tears and broke the hug when her sob lessened. "Aise nahi rote beta... agar tum kamzor pad jaaogi to apni bhabhi ko theek kaise karogi." And he cupped her face. "Meri deepu to bahut strong hai...ab hum sab ko mil kar Naina ko theek karna hai...dogi na mera saath."
