Title meaning: My Very Own Star 


Temple,

People often says they do get peace after coming to temple, a few minutes prayer unburdening the woes in-front the God they feel light. But Khushi even after pouring her heart out to her DeviMaya still could not find any peace, her heart is still heavy and hurting. Reason her husband's ignorance from past few days. She knows should have talked to him, shared her doubt and insecurities but instead hurt him by doing DNA test of him and Aarav. Yes she is guilty for not trusting her husband but what is her husband doing, ignoring her and to adding salt to that wound spending time with his ex and her son reminiscing college days. Even after apologizing so many times he is not ready to listen to her. Now what should a girl do. It is becoming difficult hiding her pain behind the smile.

Sighing she got up from the floor, folding her hands in front of the God once again she turned to leave for home, for she cannot stay there whole day. Walking down the steps she stopped by the road looking for an auto. Her phone started ringing, seeing the call is from Arnav she attended it "Ji Arnav ji"

"Khushi where the hell are you?" came Arnav's frustrated voice.

Khushi surprised that he even noticed her absence replied "I came to temple."

Arnav "Temple? You went to temple and did not even thought to inform me or anyone at home."

Khushi sighed "Everyone was resting so did not want to disturb them. And you were busy with your work....." she left it at that not wanting to add he was so busy in the discussion with Sheethal and Akash she did not want to interrupt knowing she will only annoy him.

Arnav "When will you be back?"

Khushi "as soon as I get a rickshaw"

Arnav "Khushi how many times I told you to take the car......." But Khushi's whole attention shifted from Arnav's word as she watched in horror seeing a little girl standing in the middle of the road and a vehicle was speeding towards her.

"No................." she dropped everything and ran to save the girl.

Arnav "Khushi.....what is it?.....Khushi.....hello....hello....Khushi talk to me dammit.....Khushi...." he started shouting in panic......but alas it did not reach Khushi as she pulled the child away from the road to safety. Crowd started gathering witnessing and whispering the incident. Khushi hugged the child in relief.

Few seconds later, she asked the girl "are you okay baby?" checking her for any injury.

The girl nodded her head. Khushi "it is very bad of you. What were you doing in the middle of the road? Where is your mother?" The girl just looked at her blankly.

Khushi looked at the onlookers and around seeing if anyone is coming for the girl. Worried she asked "Did anyone saw her mother? Or with someone?"

One of the onlooker "No, it all happened suddenly. Only you shouted we noticed something happening."

Another one "yes the girl out of nowhere came in the middle of the road."

Khushi again looked at the girl "did you come here with someone?" the girl nodded her head in no. Khushi "No....then what are you doing her alone? And how did you come here? Is your home nearby? If it then come I will drop you....."
