We are a family

The beautifully decorated pandal  for durga puja had all the arrangements done, and Ratnakar and Bhargavi were busy attending the guests and their relatives. Like every year for durga purja to celebrate, the Valmikis arranges the pandal on the night of Dussehra. Though Siya had never stepped out of the house in past six years, but she used to take blessings of the goddess and used to attend the durga puja every year. But this year, Ratnakar and Bhargavi were missing Siya and Luv Kush. Though they are happy for their daughter's happiness that Siya is getting back to Raghuvanshis at her slow pace, still their heart were felling a little sad about her growing distance from them.

Ratnakar have a continuous fake smile which helped him to greet his relatives while Bhargavi has observed him. She was busy talking with one of the lady near the food stalls.

BHARGAVI- ami tomara kache phire asaba.! (I will get back to you.!)

Bhargavi excused herself and walks towards Ratnakar who was silently standing with two other men- most probably be his friends.

BHARGAVI- Ratnakar...

He turns back to look at Bhargavi who smile at the two men lightly. Both the men walks from there keeping the two of them alone to have their talk.

RATNAKAR- what happened.?

Asked Ratnakar feeling all puzzled with Bhargavi.

BHARGAVI- yeh to mujhe aapko puchna chahiye, what happened to you.?

Bhargavi's question made Ratnakar to narrow his eyebrows for a moment and he sighed in dissapointment.

RATNAKAR- I am not at all feeling good today. Pata nahi what has happened to me.?

Ratnakar shook his head in disbelief for which Bhargavi giggles looking at his expressions.

RATNAKAR- I think I should go home. You handle everything here. Thikache.? (Okay.?)

Bhargavi looks shocked at his suggestions and she immediately looks frowned at him.

BHARGAVI- not at all.! How can I handle everything alone Ratnakar. Come on.!

Ratnakar looks frustrated to which Bhargavi shook her head in disbelief.

BHARGAVI- I will tell what has happened to you.

Ratnakar looks at her in confusion and Bhargavi placed her hand on his shoulder.

BHARGAVI- you are missing Siya and Luv Kush.

Ratnakar smile at her and nodded his head positively and Bhargavi shook her head in disbelief.

BHARGAVI- jab wo subah baccho ke saath Raghuvanshi Palace ke liye nikal rahi thi, at that time only I have seen your face. You were like this only, sad and depressed.

Ratnakar laughs a little to hear Bhargavi who keep on smiling at him.

BHARGAVI- have you checked with Siya's WhatsApp photos.? Luv Kush kitna khush hai apna family ke saath. They all seems to be so happy.

Ratnakar again sighed a heavy breath, he has agreed to everything what Bhargavi was trying to explain him.

BHARGAVI- aap bhi thoda khush hojayiye unn logo ke liye. Please try to understand Ratnakar.

Bhargavi feels a bit dissapointed with Ratnakar's blank expressions while he took his some time to answer her back.

RATNAKAR- I understand each and everything Bhargavi. But what should I do.? I am feeling all sad and alone in this festival.

Bhargavi smile lightly to hear his heart while Ratnakar still looks dissapointed.

RATNAKAR- Pawan too have not came for puja, jab family hi na ho to kaisa lagega.?
