Part 5 (Last part)

Their final exams were about to over. It was their last paper. Virat knew Sai was tensed about it. It was the most difficult paper. Virat just wanted to pass somehow so that his parents wont bother him about education and leave him alone to fulfill his dream of becoming writer but Sai was very serious about her results. Since his dad has started expecting from Sai that she will join him in the business, She didn't want to disappoint dad in any way. She wanted to prove that she was worthy of it.

Virat saw how much efforts Sai had put in. She had spent almost all her days and nights also sometimes in studying since 3 months. And it was also Sai's birthday today. So Virat wanted to give her surprise party. For it, he had been planning secretly. Everything from décor to food to music to drinks Virat wanted according to Sai's choice.

"Sir, I am extremely sorry. We couldn't get your gift on time." Party planner informed Virat.

"WHAT! But this surprise party is incomplete without that gift." Virat expressed his views. He wanted to gift a special collage made of Sai and her family's photo on her birthday. He knew how much she misses her family and this was her first birthday without them so he wanted to make it special for her.

"But you said everything was all set then what happened?" Virat asked from the party planner. 

"Sir, I had sent my man to fetch the collage from the photo studio but it is located at other corner of the city. Right now some protest against government is going on in that area and administration has declared curfew there so our man is stuck because of it." Party planner explained.

"No, this is special party for Sai. Nothing can go wrong." Virat said and saw the time. "There is still the time. I will go myself." Virat said and before anyone could stop him he left the house.

Party planner informed this to Virat's parents. "Virat, son come back. News mein aa raha hai us area mein law and order situation theek nahi hai. Sai ko gift baad mein de dena." Ashwini requested.

"No way mom. Its for Sai...my Sai...its her first birthday as my wife and I wont leave any chance to make it special. Wo aane wali hogi. Aap log surprise kariye use and keep her busy till I return." Virat said and cut the call.

After her exams were over Sai wanted to return home as soon as possible but as per Virat's plan her friends kept her busy till evening. Sai was upset that Virat left the college without her and he didn't even wish her since morning. Around 7.00 pm Sai returned home and found the house empty. It was dark, not even a single light was on. She was wondering what happened when all lights turned on and everybody shouted, "SURPRISE."

Sai was on cloud nine to see the surprise party. Mom, dad and all friends came one by one to wish her happy birthday but Sai didn't see the face she was dying to see, her Virat. She knew it all must be his idea only. She was searching here and there for him when Ninad noticed her restlessness.
