A New Life

The Merger

***************************************************************************************

DV came out to the door to welcome the guests only to see the front lawn surrounded by the media. 

As you all can see that Mr. Rathore is throwing a surprise party today and no one has any idea about what is going on here. As soon as we get any information, we will inform you guys. 

He heard a reporter's voice and tried not to smile. Mrs. Suryavanshi was right about this being a surprise party. 

All the famous businessmen from all over India came all the way to Mumbai to celebrate this special occasion in Rathore Mansion. But the occasion is still hidden. Let's see what the fuss is all about.

Another reporter said and DV smiled at his son Tej as he came towards him dodging all the reporters' questions. 

Everyone is excited Dad.

Tej said grinning at him and DV smirked at him slightly. His son is right. Everyone present here is too excited to know about the occasion. But DV is just waiting for his special guests. 

Let them get excited, cause in some time they will be shocked.

He said to Tej with a wink and his son burst out laughing. Even Tej has no idea about the merger. He just knew about the engagement. 

I can't believe this. The Suryavanshis and Yaduvanshis are here, in this party. What do you think guys could happen here?

DV heard the reporter's voice and looked ahead only to see Arjun and Keshav's families coming towards them. He went to welcome them and smiled as Arjun touched his feet and he pulled Arjun for a hug. 

How are you?

DV asked looking at Arjun and he smiled looking around amused. 

I am good. 

Arjun nodded and they all entered the party hall. He's really happy for his daughter. Arjun has all the qualities that a father want in a man he selects for his girl. DV indicated Tej to call Shikha and he nodded slightly. He looked towards Arjun only to see his brothers laughing at him while Arjun is just royally ignoring everyone. 

All of a sudden all the lights are dimmed and the focus went to the stairs from where Krishnaa is coming downstairs. DV felt tears coming out of his eyes looking at his baby girl. He can't believe she will leave him in some days. 

Dad??

DV heard Tej's voice and wiped his tears smiling at his son as he looked confused. 

I can't believe that in some days she will be leaving us forever.

DV told Tej in a low voice and saw his son looking towards Krishnaa with a sad face. Well, at least she will be in this city only. 

***********************************************************************************************

Arjun looked away from Krishnaa as he heard his brothers' laughter. God!! These people are making him seriously mad. They are continuously teasing him from last 3 hours and now he's getting irritated. Arjun felt someone standing beside him and turned around only to see Krishnaa bending down to touch his Mom's feet. His Mom hugged her and they both smiled at each other. Arjun sighed unable to believe what he's doing. He's getting engaged to a girl whom he never knew before, and to top of it he has feelings for some other girl. And now he sees the dreams of this girl being his wife already, and that too in some ancient set up.
