I was waiting for mom in my room, she told me to do so as she said she would be accompanying me till then i wait for her to come i was seating in front of the mirror i checked my apperance once again and the door of my room flunged open,
Come Arsh lets go they are waiting for you i nodded listening her and walked towards the living room with nervousness and sweaty palms,
I saw him and his mother and another lady she was holding a baby oh that must be babies nanny, i joined my hands and greeted both of them mom made me sit with his mother i felt more nervous,
Arsh beta no need to be nervous its just us your family you know me.. I mean you have seen me and Aditya before, his father and younger brother are in America right now so they couldn't accompany us. Here meet Nirvan he is Aditya's baby and she is a Nirvana's nanny,
I looked towards his baby umm.. Nirvan he was so small and was sleeping right now i smiled a little looking at him and greeted his nanny,
Arsh i really don't have anything to ask you only thing i want you to know is no one will force you for this marriage it will be your choice and its same for Aditya, but we as parents want this, its true and you both are aware of it but still both of yours decisions would be the final one just remember if you agree for this marriage beta never ever think Nirvan is not your baby he is your very own child i can assure you , you three will complete eachother fully their will not be any void left, now you both can have a conversation with each other ask him what ever you want Arsh he will answer you don't let any thoughts or doubts in your heart,
I nodded looking at her and was relivied listening this, now all i wanted was to ask him everything which was disturbing me and tell him about myself,
I nodded looking at her i stood up and looking at me he stood up too,
Arsh take him to your room you both can have conversation their no one will distrub you, i again nodded looking at my father,
I walked ahead and he followed me, entering my room we left the door open to make it less awkward for both of us,
Please have a seat, i told him to sit at my bed and i also sat on my bed but at a little distance from him,
Umm.. Umm i know this all is awkward for you and honestly i feel the same for me as well even it feels a little embarrssing to me, how all this happened is little shocking ,he said looking at me,
It is but we have to face it now i said looking at him,
He nodded at me, Arsh you can ask me anything i will answer your every question i won't let any unanswered,
When he called me it felt like he called my soul not only me, i felt different i came into my senses when he told me to ask him anything,
I don't know what to ask you i had a lot of question but now i feel i can't put them into words but i want to know only one thing are you sure about marrying me because i cant give you an heir would it be a problem for you and for the relationship,
No it won't, it never will be, having Nirvan by my side a loving mother for him,and an understanding partner for me is enough, more than enough for me.
You sure about not having another child,
Yes i'm, its not because of your condition Arsh, but if it would be someone else my decision would be same though having another child wasn't a issue it would completely be my partner's choice i wouldn't have forced her for another baby i'm content with just Nirvan, but never think otherwise i'm not at all thinking to marry out of pity or sympathy, instead i'll marry you for what kind of a person you are, i already decided i will have an open conversation with you and won't be hiding anything from you.
I nodded looking at him, and he continued,
I was married before and divorced and have a baby you know that right?
I again nodded listening his question,
Before metting you every other girl would say a yes for me but knowing i have a kid they wouldn't agree futher, their are woman who don't want to marry me because i'm father even all of them those who rejected me were also divorced or even had a babies too, but you agreed can i know why Arsh? Are you forced or some what pressurised??
There is nothing like that Aditya this is what my parents think is right for me and i agreed i'm not at all forced or pressurised.
I nodded listening her answer, she must be in dilemma after what her life just brought her too,
My wife divorced me because she started loving someone else and they had an affair behind my back, then i came to know she was carrying my child i had lost my all trust on her so i got the babies dna test and it matched my dna, she never wanted to keep the baby and wanted to get rid of me but i wanted to keep the baby so she took divorce even before delivering our child and not even for once looked at him after giving him birth from that day till now its being two months i'm taking care of Nirvan, i told her everything and waited for her response,
Was it a love marriage or arrange? She asked,
It was love marriage we were in love for so long, i replied
Still she choose to cheat you, how?
Sometimes we give everything to the person we love but still it is not what they want. I said,
I know this very well, i being in this similar situation. She said all this suddenly, i looked at her surprisingly and she continued,
I was also cheated by my boyfriend we were in love, we never use to meet but were connected to each other through phone even our families knew about us and he cheated me with someone else and they just got married few months ago, i know how all this betrayal hurts, it took me time to overcome it and i did but somewhere it continued to hurt and then my family started looking for rishtas for me they wanted me to settle and so did i, but then this accident happened and again i felt another heartbreak but now i'm ready to move ahead, she concluded smilingly,
I was out of words she is indeed strong, very strong,
Even i know how being betrayed hurts but i have move ahead from it and i did it for Nirvan he made me do it, i never thought i would marry again but looking at Nirvan i knew he needed a mother and somewhere i lacked a partner too, you know ofcourse its your decision no one will force you but remember one thing if it is a yes Nirvan is as much as your child as much as he is mine and don't think you are not his mother after marrying me you are his mother and that is it and end of the topic. I marrying not only for a mother to my child but also for an understanding partner and a company with whom i'll share everything with.
So, its a yes from your side? She asked,
Yes, it is a yes from my side i said looking straight in her eyes.
She adverted her gaze and said, this all i wanted to discuss with you. If you want ask anything futher please go ahead,
I don't have anything else to ask you this is more than enough for me,
So shall we leave and go back to the living room, i nodded looking at her again and she stood from her bed and i did the same, and we reached the living room,
I sat back opposite to my mom and she asked me raising her face i glanced at Arsh again and she again stealed glances of me and i nodded at my mom that its a yes from my side, and mom had an never ending smile on her face,
I saw her mom asking her decision to which she looked at me and nodded, her parents reaction were the same they too had a never ending smiles on their faces,
My mom and her mom exchanaged sweets they even fed sweets to both of us.
And suddenly mom asked if she would like to hold Nirvan in her hands,
I saw her nervousness but still she nodded with a smile and held Nirvan in her arms and to my suprise he didn't cry instead smiled looking at her and held her finger in his little hands she too smiled looking at his gesture and kissed his forehead with care not to make him cry and then mom took her to have a talk along with her mother, i wonder what they must be talking about.
Enjoy!
