His First Love (True Love)

Episode 187

Nehan started reading the letter written by Tara

"Good morning everyone, hope I am not late, I know either you all are in shock or cursing me for cheating them.

I never understood when and how I changed and why I changed, how I got trapped and why I did bad for this family. I started searching for the answers, but then I realized I was wrong all the time.

When I was small, they said they were my parents and I believed them and when they sold me to my master I was so small that I didn't even understand how to react. I loved them, but they always cheated on me, but my master would have taken advantage of me and spoiled my life, but he didn't do that, he helped me, he protected me, but I didn't wait for him.

I should not have accepted Sagar's proposal without my master's permission, but I did that, but I didn't regret my decision as I got a beautiful family. The two boys were like my brothers, sons and best friends and though dad never spoke to me directly, he always used to support me indirectly.

I had everything, the love, the support, and everything one girl can dream of a happy family, but then one call changed my life. I got trapped in their web of lies and didn't realize what I was doing till I lost my son.

Sagar, I know you love me, but I don't deserve that love, I killed your son, how can you forgive me? I don't deserve your forgiveness, you should hate me, why didn't you hate me? When my master slapped you, you didn't even complain. How can you be like that? I hate you Sagar, I spoiled your life, if you have gotten married to someone else your life would have been different.

Kusum, I am really sorry dear, I know you need me, I am not strong like you, I was not able to forgive myself, I can't live this life and you were right, I have been suffering since six months and I came to know last month that I am going to die and I didn't felt bad with that news, but felt happy to know that I don't have to pretend that I am happy.

Hey Sneha, Kusum needs you, Shweta aunty used to handle many things, which no one realized, but after her death, Kusum got burdened with those responsibilities and she had no choice, but to trust me with small things like handling kids and Avni and our Emma, do help her, it's just a request.

I am sorry Dhruv, because of me, you lost your brother, but you are really lucky that you got Nandu as your wife. She is the best thing that happened in your life. I spoiled your life and her life as well, but you both became each other's support and helped each other to overcome the pains and sorrows and you forgave me because of her. I hate you all for doing that.

Take care of Avni, the little princess will wake up at 10 and come out by 10:30. She is in pain, but talking to me makes her feel better. We play, bet, and do many things, but now she will become alone.

I am sorry master, like always, this time also I didn't take your permission to die. You always forgave my mistakes, this time also you do the same and forgive me. You have a big heart, which I don't. I always have a habit of going against my master. Do forgive me please and please fulfill my last wish and put color on me. I never allowed anyone to put color on me because I always wanted you to do that first, but I never got the courage to ask you.

Abhi held Kusum's hand tightly, while Chirag was looking around to know who her master was. Aadi stopped playing and came near Tara's body and looked at her for some time and smiled and said, "play," but when Tara didn't move, he went near her and caressed her face and said, "no sleep, play," when he saw she didn't move, he pouted and started pulling her arm.

"Aadi, she can't play with you," said Sahaj.

"Play," screamed Aadi, pulling her hand with all his strength and Sahaj held him and said, "she can't play with you," and dragged him away from her and Dhruv started crying out loud and Piya hugged him and started caressing his back.

Avni came out and saw everyone gathered there and asked, "what happened now?" and walked towards them and saw Tara and said, "hey Tara, this is not April, you can't fool me, and Dhruv stop crying, she is just pretending, she likes troubling me."

When she didn't move, Avni looked at Sagar and others and sat beside Tara and said, "Tara, you promised me that you will always be with me, you can't ditch me, get up, you said that you will teach me chess today, and you promised me that you will lose in ludo as well."

"Avni," said Kusum.

"She said I am like her daughter, she will always be with me, how can she do this to me? Like mom and dad, she also left me. Why are they doing this with me? Why don't they want to be with me?" asked Avni and started crying and Abhi came to his feet and walked inside.

Manav came inside and said, "all the arrangements have been made," and Kusum looked at Sneha and asked, "will you help me?" and Sneha nodded her head as yes.

They asked the gents to leave and made Tara ready by wearing her a red saree and putting a big red dot on the forehead and called Sagar and he looked at Tara with a sad smile and Kusum put vermillion in front of him and he nodded his head as no.

"I know you are angry, but she deserves this, whatever she did was past. We are fault here, we treated so many people, but we didn't realize that she is depressed, she needed treatment," said Kusum and Sagar took a pinch of vermillion and filled Tara's hair partition and said, "I love you, but for you the only thing mattered was your master, but still I love you Tara."

Everyone gathered there and put flower garland on her, but Chirag was still looking at everyone to know who her master was and thought, "who can have such a big heart? I know I can never become like him, but I will at least try."

Manav came with two guards and asked, "shall we start?"

Suraj said "yes," but Sagar stopped them and said, "her master has never given permission yet."

"Bro, he will not come," said Suraj.

"Then she will not move from here, this time she will not go against him, I will not let her do that," said Sagar, sternly.

"Who is her master?" asked Chirag to Sejal, who was standing beside him, but she didn't reply.

Kusum stood there looking at them, as Abhi didn't allow her in the room.

"Bro, he won't come out, let's go," said Suraj again after waiting for 10 minutes, but Sagar didn't budge.

Abhi came out wearing white clothes and slowly walked towards Tara's body and Suraj said, "let's start now," but Abhi showed his hand and signaled him to take a step back and Suraj took a step back.

Chirag stood there looking at Abhi in shock.

"Oh my slave, I am freeing you now. Yes, I forgave you so many times, because for me you are the same innocent girl who was sold to me when she was minor and not even mature enough to understand what is going on around her. I became your protector because I know you are innocent and you are not that strong to make some decisions. I forgave you because you were trapped and you thought they were right, that is a normal human behavior, people trust their blood, though he was not your blood, you treated him like your own brother. You deserved a better life and we tried to give you that. We never showed pity on you. Oh my slave, you are now a free bird now, I am relieving you," said Abhi and Jehan put color in front of Abhi and he smiled and took color and applied it on Tara's face and asked, "are you happy now?" and kissed her forehead.

Sagar smiled looking at Tara and said, "your final journey starts now and this is going to be your happy journey."

When the body was shifted in the vehicle, Abhi went near Robert and said, "be careful and I am really sorry that you didn't get rest."

"Hey, I am okay, I will lock the gate as soon as you leave," said Robert.

"Have Naina and Jason left?" asked Abhi.

"Yes, she went to the office, while Jason went home," said Robert and saw four kids standing there and asked, "no one allowed you with them?" and Aadi pouted and nodded his head as no.

"Come with me," said Abhi, walking towards his car.
