Magic Of Love [Completed]

shot 10

Divyanshi took three deep breaths before pressing the calling bell

She was nervous and excited at the same time

Vihaan's house was located in one of the posh housing areas in Mumbai which was just driving home the point that they are very different now

Thirteen years ago, he had been a simple middle class boy who had been back packing around the country taking a vacation

He had told her once that his sister had fallen in love with someone from the upper class society and had married him and he himself had been living with them when he joined a college nearby

And theirs was the address he had given her and she had seen it for herself when she had gone in search of him when she got pregnant

It was one of the reasons she gave up her baby, because she wanted her little girl to enjoy all the privileges in life that she couldn't provide for her

As soon as she pressed the calling bell, the door was opened by a very excited Drishti

"Hi. You are here finally" Drishti said with a grin

"I'm on time right??"

"Oh yes." Drishti said and took in her appearance

"I love what you are wearing Diya" Drishti said

Divya was wearing a skinny jeans with a loose lemon yellow shirt.

Drishti was in a orange shorts paired with a lime green tank top

"I love yours too. Seems like we have similar taste in dressing" Divya said

It would be wonderful to take her on shopping one day

Was it too soon to suggest??

"Come on Diya. They are out in the terrace" Drishti said pulling her upstairs

"They??"

"Uncle Vihaan and the woman he plans to marry. She just dropped in an hour ago. Her name is Sandhya Rathore"

A lump formed and settled in her heart

He was involved with someone else.

With a woman who felt comfortable enough in their relationship to drop in whenever she wished.

"I want her to meet you." Drishti said

Nooo.... She wanted to scream

"It will only take a minute. Then I will show you my room" Drishti talked on without realising her mother's pain

Divya squared her shoulders, stiffened her spine and lifted her chin

Suck it up Divya

Her daughter is more important now

If she could be given a chance, she wanted to keep meeting her child whenever possible, so she will have to get used to seeing Vihaan with another woman

"Do you like her Drishti??" Divya asked wanting to get an idea of the woman she is going to meet

The woman who is going to be a bigger part of her child's life.

"She's okay, I guess" came the half-hearted reply. Her nose wrinkled expressively.

"She sort of talks down to me but she's not nasty or mean." Then realising her words might be off-putting, she hastily added "You don't have to worry Diya. She'll be nice to you. Uncle wouldn't like it if she is not"

Her daughter was no fool, Divya thought wryly.

She was certainly wise to the ways of a woman who wanted to keep a man's good opinion.
