Third Person POV:

Laksh calls Ravinder and Shekar... That evening all three meet at Shekar's house. Laksh asks the reason why Neelima rejected Neetu. Shekar and Ravinder initially hesitate but tells Neetu's birth truth to Laksh. Laksh took few minutes to digest the truth and then says....

Laksh: Oh..is that so. Ok...but now tell me  the reason why  Neelima aunt's rejected neetu?

Shekar (In serious tone): Laksh! this is the reason why your aunt rejected Neetu.

Ravinder burst out into laughter considering the fact, Laksh can't even consider it as a reason where as Neelima created a whole scene out of it!

Laksh: what? I mean so what if Neetu is not your biological child? How can this be a reason? Uncle didn't you explain aunt that if Neetu marries me then her family will be me and you people?

Ravinder: I tried! but i was in a hurry for my business trip at that time but I told her to consult your grandma and take decision but she did all by herself. 

Shekar: I thought of searching for parents back then, but Radhika doesn't want to let go of Neetu. But I think we should resume searching her biological parents.

Laksh: no! Don't do that!! Neetu's parents are only you and Radhika aunty. Even if you do find them out, they cannot hold the place that you are holding in her heart. Only Radhika aunty can handle Neetu besides me. Anyways, I want Neelima aunty to see all the good things in Neetu and accept her as she is, Orphan or not.

Ravinder: well...... it's good that you understand everything. And also do not tell this to Neetu. You know she is sensitive.

Laksh: of course, what is there to say her when this matter is not important! I think now i should try very hard to pursue her. I'll never let her get hurt so don't worry.

Shekar: thank you so much for understanding.

Laksh: No Uncle...In fact I am the one who has to say thanks. Thanks you for taking care of Neetu all these years for me.

Meenu: My sis is her worst condition. She is not eating at all. Not sleeping, I always find her crying her eyes out at the night times in her dark room. Seeing her like that, I'm worried what would happen to her. You know what... She is not feeling well from two days.

Rishi: Oh... Lord!!! How is she? Is she okay?

Meenu: I don't know.

Rishi: Hey let's do something... you know___ to help them meet privately and all.

Meenu: Okay... Hey why don't we do something like she herself goes to Laksh BIL?

Rishi: I think I have a plan (giving her a mischievous smile)
