"YRKKH-Aarohi's Enchanting Transformation"

24.The fight for love(b)

In the Geonka house,the day started with devotion,
Everyone gathered at the pooja room for their morning Aarti,

Aarohi visited the home after a week,
She could hear Akshu  singing the bhajan,As she
was physically exhausted due to the continous duties,She decided to skip the pooja,and headed towards her room.
Even though she was working tirelessly for the past months,
She felt a deep sense of peace,which became a rarity within the Geonka household's daily dramas.

She had to stay here for the next few days because of Kairav and Mimi.

Few days back,Mimi fell ill and had to be hospitilized.
She didnt like the hospital atmosphere,So the family shifted back to the home,but doctor strictly advised her to be under medical supervision.

Mimi asked Aarohi to be with her.She wanted to be with her whole family,as she is aged and anything can happen.Aarohi couldn't refuse her wish,So she accepted.
Even then she was reluctant to go home,She has been searching reasons to avoid being at home,She used to visit home occasionally and stay at hospital for days citing duties as a reason.

Then Kairav convinced her to come home for him,as he wants to spend time with his sister,also to check their grand mother as her health is detoriating.Then she decided to come home.Even then she decided to

She took shower and changed into a more comfortable outfit,and she lied down at couch and rested.
Her thoughts wandered towards the man who took care of Her for the past months,Everything became simple with him,He has solutions to her every problem,then he became the solution,
She didn't knew how this transition happened.
She switched on her mobile to message him,she noticed Kairav's missed calls,So she went down.

As she descended,she found her family at breakfast table,
Kairav noticed her,

Kairav approached Aarohi, concern etched on his face.

"Aaru, I've been calling you since morning. Why didn't you answer?"

Aarohi smiled wearily. "I came in a bit earlier, bhaiya. Needed to freshen up. My phone died, just saw your calls."

Kairav's expression softened. "You must be starving."

"Extremely," Aarohi admitted.

Kairav gestured to the dining area. "Come, let's eat. Bua made roti."

Aarohi sat down, savoring the warm food.

Post breakfast,Everyone gathered at living room,Aarohi brewed herself a coffee to ease her tiredness,
Akshu forwarded herself in front of everyone announcing that she wants to say something.
Aarohi could sense her hesitation and agitation.
She had a sense of what Akshu would say.

Manish: Akshu beta, what's troubling you? Talk to me.

Akshara: Bade papa... (pausing, her eyes locking onto Aarohi's) I've been thinking... a lot has happened, and it's hard to let go,nobody is willing too.
But I love Abhimanyu. I want to spend my life with him.

(Akshara's voice trembled) He did those things to change his family's mindset about wedding with Aarohi. I know his actions are unjustifiable, but when someone is willing to do anything for me... how can I give up on him? I don't want to lose him.
(Akshara's composure broke, tears streaming down her face) I've lost so much in life... I can't bear losing the person I love.

The room fell silent, concern etched on every face. Swarna rushed to Akshara's side, embracing her warmly.

Manish gently cupped Akshara's face, his eyes filled with empathy. Akshu beta, you're my life. You gave me the reason to live again. I won't let you struggle. I'll accept him.
