Shehnaaz woke up with a mild headache. She got up and sat on the bed. She was on the bed alone. She looked at the bathroom door. It was open. So he wasn't there. She looked at herself. She didn't change her cloth last night. She sighed and went to the loo.
There was a sound of conversation going on in the living room. That caught her attention when she heard her name. She stopped at midway.
"Shehnaaz ko bolna nehi hain?" she heard Rita ji's voice.
"No, Mom." Sidharth's voice replied. She was behind a curtain but can hear everything. Sidharth doesn't want to let her know something. Maybe he counts her as a outsider. She huffed.
'of course Sana. What else do you expect. It seems like a family but not really. And more importantly not yours.' She reminded herself and suggested to not getting hurt.
Shehnaaz entered the room with a Good morning in her voice to let them know about her presence. Not to make them uneasy.
"Morning, baccha. How's your head?" Rita ji asked her when she sat beside her with Sidharth on the other side of Rita ji.
"Thora sa pain hain. Sach batao! Aap naraaz to nehi hain na?" she asked with a pout. Sidharth looked at her cute pout.
"Kis baat ke liye?" Rita ji asked
"Wohh kal maine drink kiya, ghar late ayi!" she again made pout.
Rita ji chuckled.
"No beta. Main kyun naraaz hongi. Kabhi kabhi jaruraat hoti hain. Bass adaat na ho to phir saab thik hain. Tu har roz to nahi jati" she answered. Shehnaaz hugged her.
Sidharth saw how Shehnaaz was so concern about his mom.
What she might think of her, she was worried about that. They shared a beautiful bond. He smiled at them. Somehow it gave him a peace.
Sidharth's phone pinged. And he instantly got up. Which made both the ladies look at him. He had a sweet wide smile plastered in his lip.
"Let's go" he said looking at both of them. Shehnaaz thought Sidharth and his mother are going somewhere.
"Kahan ja rahe ho aap log?" she asked when Sidharth came to her and said.
"You too coming with us." He took her hand in his. She was surprised at his behavior. She looked at him and then to Rita ji who was giving a smile at her.
"Kahan?" she asked Sidharth.
He didn't answer and pulled her towards the gate. Rita ji following behind.
"Aise?" she pointed to her cloths. He smiled but didn't stopped.
They got into the elevator. And pressed two floor down from theirs. Shehnaaz found it weird but gave into them.
They pressed the door bell. Sidharth pushed Shehnaaz towards the gate and he with his mother stood behind her. Shehnaaz raised her Eye brows at him and got a smile back from him.
The door clicked open and what she saw got her froze in her feet.
It was Siraat. On her new father's arm.
Siraat made a screeched sound showing her excitement watching Shehnaaz. she almost pushed herself in the air to get in Sana's arm.
"Siraat. Baccha" Shehnaaz took her to her chest and Siraat screamed for some weird reason. It was her happiness watching Shehnaaz and frustration of not watching her from 2 days.
She kissed her everywhere in her face. Siraat made a Boo boo boo sound. Everyone around them was watching their reunion. The happiness in Siraat's face. and the happy tears in Shehnaaz's eyes. Siraat was waiving her hands in the air.
Their moment got interrupt when she heard a voice. It was Siraat's new father.
"I'm watching her this happy first time in these two days." he also had a satisfying smile in his face.
"Thank you" only Shehnaaz can said to him.
"No, No, thank Dr. Sidharth." He said to her. Shehnaaz was confused. When he continued.
"When Dr. Sidharth offered me. I couldn't resist, I had to take it." he said making Shehnaaz more confuse.
Sidharth came forward and forward a hand to him.
"Thanks Mr. Patel." He shook his hand and let them get in the house.
After spending almost half an hour they came back to their home.
"Beta. Now you can meet her anytime you want." Rita ji said.
Shehnaaz had happy tears in her eyes. Rita ji kissed her head.
"Jaab uss din Sidharth ne tujhe aise rote hue dekha to usse raha nehi gaya or usne Mr. patel ko offer diya. Aur wohh maan bhi gaye." She explained. Shehnaaz looked at him. He was standing beside them with a never leaving smile in his face. a smile that make him look more handsome.
"kaisa offer?" she asked looking at him but Rita ji answered.
"Unko iss building me actual price se bohut kaam dam me flat dilwaya. Siraat ki puri zindegi free medical service dilwayi hamare hospital me. Aur wohh log man gaye." She ended. Shehnaaz had gratitude filled in her eyes. There were tears too.
Sidharth came forward and wiped them with his thumb and patted her cheek.
After some minutes Shehnaaz went to her room where Sidharth was already there getting ready for hospital. The moment Sana got into the room. She ran to him and hugged him.
Sidharth was shocked by her sudden move. She hugged him tight with her still teary eyes. He reciprocated. He also locked his arms around her back. Holding her almost caging her petite form in his huge body and rested his chin on her head. Letting her cry her happy tears out. he had a smile knowing she wasn't crying as she is sad. She is just overwhelmed.
"Thank you" she mumble into his chest. His white shirt is now wet near his chest pocket. He smile wider and kissed in her head.
"You don't need to thank me." He said ever so sweetly .
She lifted her face up and looked at him.
"Aapna itna kyun kiya mere liye?"
"Kyunki main tumhare Apno ko tumse dur hote nehi dena chahata." He replied and she remember that night when she said that to him. She dug her face further in his chest. He cared for her. that was so unexpected. Someone cared for her. She never had anyone when she slept on an empty stomach, with a broken heart. Now he cared for her.
After being in his arm for a long time they got apart. He cupped her face in his palm and said.
"Now, don't cry anymore. Okay." He baby talked to her exactly like she did with Siraat a little while ago. Shehnaaz chuckled at his trial to make her smile. These were so unusual for a girl who never had these kind of affection.
She never imagined a strict and rude looking Sidharth doing baby talk to her. Doing this for her. she was thankful to him.
