CHAPTER 1
The limousine screeched to a sudden stop " Ramesh .go and see what you hit " a stern voice came from the cosy comfort of the limousine..Ramesh the chauffer quickly got out to see what he hit........It was a stray dog whimpering in pain.....his back leg was obviously broken and bleeding...he ran back to the back of the limousine,,," Madam it is a stray dog.."..........Ramesh passed the information to his employer.......'' Get rid of that thrash...." hurry or i will be late for the meeting......the woman reprimanded,...... Ramesh was too scared to disobey his employer's instructions......so Ramesh huriedly moved the injured,bleeding dog to the side of the road and quickly drove away..... Madam Rubina checked her watch,,she still had half an hour to reach her destination.......she was too engrossed in her papers that she failed to notice a car stopping by the road side and carrying the injured dog the limosine had hit
Raghav instructed his driver to stop the car,,and pick the injured dog and put it into his car....."sir the dog is bleeding it will soil your car " do as you are told krish'' can't you see the dog was just run over .......it is also god's creation .....who has feelings too....just drive to the nearest vet,,........ Raghav realised that the dog was actually a puppy.......it was whmpering ...raghav took off his jacket and covered it as it was shaking badly...... Raghav gently stroked the puppy's head ........Krish saw though the mirror.....his boss was a compassionate man....unlike Mrs Rubina....his mother........
krish stopped thinking and concentrated on his driving,.....he reached the vet ,and when he wanted to carry the puppy Raghav stopped him.......he himself carried the puppy in to the vetirinarian....... " Ah Raghav good to see you,......the old family friend greeted Raghav.....'' good to see you too uncle Steve......."..This puppy got hit....' " Raghav explained'.......and watched as the vet cleaned up the injured puppy......put it on drips and sedated it for about one hour ....the puppy is lucky , no broken bones only a nasty gash......it will survive Steve said while bandaging it's feet........it's a female.........by the way.......you can send it to the owner......Steve continued..'
"the puppy is a stray,,so no one will claim it " i am taking it home''...............replied Raghav........"Taking it home.!!! exclaimed Steve'' what would your mother say''............Raghav looked harsh suddenly,,,,i do not interfer in her affairs ,,,,she knows best not to interfere in mine...... this time Raghav let his driver carry the puppy while he carried his brief case.........soon they were on their way home......Raghav closed his eyes ,,he was tired,.....he wanted to go away to a place of peace and tranqulity,,,his wish seemed impossible and so far, ,he was a businessman..........he had clients.......he had employees...and most of all he had a daughter......his heart beat was his child.......his only joy and comfort in times of stress and heartache,,his little princess was the splitting image of her mother, the way her curly locks fell on her face.....her dimples when she laughed....her joyous laughter brought happiness to him...... silent tears fell.......... she died soon after giving birth ......his wife...his love ,his world had come crashing down he was broken into pieces..... Raghav recalled that day 7 years ago..... when he had been rushing straight from the airport to be with her.......she was having labour pains..........and his mother was there taking care of her,.............still she died,............she was bleeding.......the doctors were there........even his uncle could not save her...... to be continued......Evelyn
