CHAPTER FOUR

• AUTHOR'S POV •

Once they were sitted alone with Kiana,who was busy playing with her toy bunny bear and her mom's dupatta,

"Karan, why do you wanna marry me?? Like I know it was my Baba who initiated this proposal but why did you agreed?? You are single,good looking and yeah not to forget the most eligible bachelor in the town..So why do you wanna marry me,who is a mother to a five months old baby??" Asked Teju, breaking the ice..

"Firstly,doesn't a girl, who is the mom to a child, have the right to marry and deserve a life partner??Tejasswi, As long as the person is genuine,it doesn't matter if he or she is Divorcee,mother or father of child, or a widow or widower..As you said, Nihaal uncle, who is papa's good friend and business mate, proposed this proposal..My parents knew about you like you are the daughter of Nihaal uncle but we didn't knew you have a baby too..But Nihaal uncle mentioned it very first, and my father didn't had any objection with that as he has met you twice or thrice and knew about your professional behavior..When he discussed this with my mumma, you know she was the happiest hearing this..You believe or not but in my family everyone has adored you..Everyone in the family is so happy to welcome you both.." Karan explained patiently and calmly..

"What about you Karan?? Don't you wanna a girl who is like you??" Asked Teju..

"Trust me, I want the same as my parents..You know the moment I saw your and Kiana's picture,you both made the place in my heart..Wouldn't lie that i knew you from beginning like though you stay away from limelight and media and this the only reason that no one knows about Kiana but i have read the articles about you..and the thing I have always adored about you is your work ethics, you at a very young age, worked hard and gained the success you have today..And trust me, it's my luck that,I will get the opportunity to be called as your husband and Kiana's dad.." Karan said..

"So just because of my professional life you wanna marry me??" Asked Teju..

"No,never..If at this point, you had nothing except for your family and daughter,i would still have considered the proposal and would have made efforts to know you..I would have still thought about the future with you..And yeah trust me, I don't pity you.." Replied Karan being calm and composed..

"Hmm..You have quite expressive answers to my questions..But Karan, the most important factor in a relationship is love..And for me, I still have Kiana's father, Agastya,in my heart..I never ever stopped loving him, even after he left..What if I couldn't love you ever??" Asked Teju..

"Hmm..So in that case, I would never except love from your side..But we can always be friends in order to provide Kiana a friendly environment while growing up..and if we become friends,then it would be easy to handle Kiana.." Karan Replied..

"Okay..What if I don't want a baby in future??I mean to say what if I don't wanna welcome our child in this world??then what Karan??" Asked Teju..

"Then I am just happy with Kiana as anyways if we get married,she would be mine daughter too..So what's the need for other child,when we already have one??" Replied Karan..

"Karan it's easy to say but are you ready to accept someone else's child??" Asked Teju..

"If I wouldn't be, then I wouldn't be sitting here, in front of you..." Said Karan..

"What are your dreams for your wedding??" Asked Teju..

"I have never imagined about my wedding..Like may be a simple,small scale and intimate wedding ceremony..yeah that would be my dream wedding.." Replied Karan..

"Okay,so i would like to tell you that i am just marrying for the sake of Kiana,so that she could too have a father's love and warmth and his side of family too..So if we marry and then at point if in future, if I find you neglecting her or doing anything that would hurt her, I would leave you at that very moment..That is it from my side..If you have any question you can ask me.." Said Teju, making herself clear..

"Nahh, I don't have any question for you..But just like you said that it's all because if Kiana that you are marrying..Even I would expect that you would treat my family as your own..You wanna love me Or not,that's your thing to decide but what I won't be able to tolerate is you neglecting and misbehaving with my family.." Said Karan, making his point..

"Don't worry,that wouldn't happen.." Said Teju..

"Umm, can I just take her once now that we are done with the chit chat??" Asked Karan..

"Sure, you can try if she wants to.." Replied Teju..

While Karan then tried to attract Kiana's attention speaking in baby voice, in which he succeeded too.. And then he tried to take her and much to his and Teju's surprise, she did went to him.. And he started talking to her in baby voice..

"Her eyes, they are so beautiful and big too..She is so cute yaar..." Said Karan to Teju while playing with Kiana..

"I know right, her eyes are totally like Agastya,he too had this blue eyes.." Said Teju..

"Haan??" Asked Karan, happily...

"Hmm" Teju hummed.. Karan played with Kiana for a while and then Teju said,

"I think,now we should go down, it has been quite a time.."

"Haan..You please take her in your arms..I can't as I have never took a baby's care and I an scared, she could too get hurt... So please take her.." Replied Karan while Teju did what he said.. And both started walking towards stairs when Teju said,

"Karan, even if you want a baby in future,I would never deny you..It's your right too..We can always opt for IVF.."

"And I would never want to do anything for which you may pressurise yourself..And moreover,I think Kiana is enough for us.." Replied Karan while looking at Kiana at last who was now busy in observing her surroundings..

And then Karan proceeded further giving Teju a smile while Teju too smiled remembering his answers to her questions, which she can see that, all were genuine.. She saw that in his eyes..

After going down, When Teju sat on her place, Mumma Kundra came and sat beside her, playing with Kiana while chatting with Teju simultaneously.. They both were talking even Aaroohi and Papa Kundra were engaging in conversation with Teju, when She suddenly asked,

"Aunty, uncle, Aaroohi, what's you dream for your son and brother's wedding??"

"I don't have any dream..I would always want it to happen the way he wants it to be.." Replied Samay Kundra aka Papa kundra..

"I want an intimate wedding with close family,may it be grand Or not..Rest all just like how he wants..." Replied Anahita Kundra aka Mumma Kundra..

"But I want it to be fun even when intimate and nit so grand.." Replied Aaroohi..

While Teju nodded and Karan smiled that she is considering his family's thought too..

"So what have you thought Karan, about this proposal,about Teju and Kiana??" Asked Samay aka Papa Kundra which made Teju smile a little as he included Kiana too..

"I don't have any problem with it..I mean just as you all say but yeah I would wanna be a part of their lives if you ask me.." Replied Karan while others smiled while Papa and Mumma Kundra were happy..

"What about you Teju??" Asked Neetu Aai...
