Chapter 9
Part 3C
Waise to mai romantic angle nahi dalne wali thi... par fir bhi daal diya 
----------------------------
Some time back.
Arjun panicked to get a call from Sameer and he rushed to the hospital.
Arjun came to hospital and heard what his dad was telling to Sameer about his past and felt guilty. He knew his father's actions were harsh but his intentions were always good. He could understand his pain of losing his wife. And what he said was correct. He felt bad when his dad held himself responsible for all the mess. That is when he spoke up
----------------------------
Arjun: I'm sorry Papa... maine aapka bahut dil dukhaya hai... par kya karoon... ye zid aur ego bhi to mujhe aapse hi mila hai...
He comes forward and hugs Mr Rawte and Mr Rawte breaks down hugging him back.
Arjun: Mai bhi to aapke jazbaaton ko samajh nahi paaya... aap apni jagah sahi they... aap ko meri fikar thi... is liye aapne ye sab kiya... aap galat nahi hain...
Mr Rawte: mai bhi to kabhi tumhari ichchhaon ko samajh nahi paaya... par beta ek baat jo kabhi nahi keh paya... yakeen maano... jab kabhi news mein tumhari bahaduri ke kisse dekhta hoon, padhta hoon... mujhe bahut khushi hoti hai... garv hota hai ki tum mere bete ho...
Arjun: Baba ... aapne itna keh diya... aur mujhe kuch nahi chahiye...
They are quiet for some time. Arjun inquires about Payal and Sameer gives hima quick update.
Sameer being Narcotics chief knew about some rehabilitation centres. He inquires about one such centre and tells Arjun and Mr Rawte about it. They talk to the doctor and doctor permits them to take Payal there next day.
Payal was still under the effect of the medicines that were given her to keep her calm.
----------------------------
Next day they take unconscious Payal to the rehab centre. When Payal re-gains her consciousness, she finds herself in strange surroundings and panics.
A nurse comes and tells her to keep calm and tells an attendant to call the doctor.
A sweet lady comes and introduces herself to Payal as Dr Roshni Pathak.
Dr. Roshni Pathak:
She checks Payal and informs her that she is in rehab centre. She is confused. All she could remember was she talked to Arjun last before faling unconcsious. She didnt know whom to ask for. Doctor understands her state of mind and tells her to relax and leaves.
After some time Dr Roshni comes back with Arjun and Mr Rawte. Payal was shocked to see them together and at the same time embarassed and couldnt meet their eyes. She was waiting for her father to blast at her but what followed was something she never expected.
Mr Rawte came close to her and kissed her forehead.
Mr Rawte: I'm sorry beta!!! mere ek galat faisle ne tumhari zindagi barbad kar di...
Payal: Baba... (breaks into tears)
Arjun comes forward and wipes her and Mr Rawte's tears and they get into a big family hug. Nothing was left to be said. They understood each other.
Payal: I'm sorry Baba... I'm sorry Dada... maine jo kiya wo maafi k layak to nahi hai... lekin mai ek aur mauka chahti hoon... aur mai vaada karti hoon ki is baar mai aap dono ki saari ummeedein poori karungi...
Mr Rawte: That's my Payal ... meri bachchi ... i love u ...
Sameer enters with a good news.
Sameer: parso ki party ki reports aa gayi hain... Payal k blood samples mein drugs ka bahut negligible amount mila hai ... case to banega par bail bhi mil jayegi aur kyunki ab Payal rehbb centre mein aa chuki hai ... usey koi sazaa nahi hogi... par jurmana lagega ...
Arjun, Payal and Mr Rawte are relieved to know this.
----------------------------
Payal's treatment goes on for a few weeks and she was improving. Arjun, Sameer and Mr Rawte used to come to meet her regularly. Sameer had beocme a part of Rawte household. He had also grown closer to Payal as her second dada. Doctors assured her that she will be able to go home for Diwali. She was happy that after years she will be able to celebrate Diwali and Bhai-dooj with her Baba and dada.
Payal was not oblivious to her Arjun Dada's behaviour towards Dr Roshni. She along with Sameer used to tease Arjun for being attracted to Roshni and Arjun used to get embarrassed. But he knew that they were right. He liked Dr Roshni.
----------------------------
One day, when Payal stepped out of her room to go out in the garden area, she saw Sameer with a girl. She couldn't see the face of the girl. Sameer was consoling her by keeping his hand on her shoulder. After a few mins the girl went out towards the garden area and Sameer came towards her room and found her standing out.
Sameer: hey Payal !! mai tumhi se milne aa raha tha...par tum yahan darwaze par kyun khadi ho aise?
Payal(with a mischievious smile): really Dada... mujhse milne aaye they aap ?
Sameer looks at her with a question mark. She moves towards the garden area and Sameer follows her.
Payal(winks): kaun thi wo?
Sameer(his eyes popped out): Kaun?
Payal: ohh please Dada ...Arjun Dada ki tarah drama nahi ... wo kaun thi jiske kandhe par haath rakhke aap pyar se samjha rahey they... usey dilasa de rahe they?
Sameer(blushes, trying to hide his emotions): wo... wo meri ek colleague thi ...
Payal(raises her eye brows): Sirf colleague...sach mein?
Sameer(again tries to hide his emotions): sach mein... actually uska bada bhai bhi drug abuse ka shikar hai ... aur martey marte bacha hai ... uski haalat tumse zyada kharab thi ... wo bahut saalon tak drugs leta raha hai... badi mushkil se theek ho raha hai wo ... (depressed)
Payal: i'm sorry Dada... par aap fikar mat kijiye... wo bhi theek ho jayega... aakhir wo bada bhai hi to uska kanya daan karega... jab aap dono ki shadi hogi...
Sameer(Frowns): Payal!!...
Payal runs giggling and Sameer stands there blushing and smiling for a few minutes. But this is broken within a few minuntes when he hears Payal shouting on someone.
----------------------------
A few minutes back when Payal went to the garden area. She saw "her" standing near a patient. Payal was shocked to see her here. She couldn't believe her eyes. She was furious at her. It was Nadiya whom Payal had seen in rave parties performing at rave parties accompanying the drug peddlers.
Payal goes and shouts at her. Nadiya was in tears.
Payal: Tum Nadiya ho na... Ronnie k drug peddler gang ki important player aur performer... tum yahan... (looks at the patient with her) ...(sarcastically) tumhara bhi koi rishtedar yaha hai ... ab tumhe pata chalega ki drugs lene k kitne nuksan hotey hain... ye sirf ek insaan nahi balki uske poore pariwar ko barbad kar deta hai... tumhe to jail mein hona chahiye... pata nahi kitni zindagiyan barbad ki hain tumne ... tum ... (she is cut short by Sameer)
Sameer: Payal... ye Insp. Aisha hai ... Special officer of Narcotics bureau... ek undercover agent ... un drug peddlers k beech rehkar... apni jaan par khel kar.. ye hi humein unki information deti hai ... isi ki tip off par humne us din raid ki thi us party mein...
Payal is shocked. She apologizes to Aisha.
Payal: I'm sorry officer ... mujhe pata nahi tha...
Aisha: Its OK ... tum sach nahi janti thi... isliye tumne aisa kaha...par jo bhi tumne kaha ... bilkul sach tha ... drugs ka nasha sirf 1 insaan ko nahi... balki uske poore parivar ko barbad kar deta hai ... mera bhi parivar iska shikar hua... aur isiliye maine ye challenge accept kiya ... mai is jurm ko jad ukhaad kar fenkna chahti hoon... nahi chahti ki kisi aur ke saath ye ho...
Payal: Dont worry ... sab theek hi hoga ... (mischieviously) Mere Dada hain na (points to Sameer) ... inka saath kabhi mat chhodna ...
Sameer glares at her and Aisha doesnt understand what she meant.
----------------------------
On Diwali. At Rawte Mansion.
Arjun, Sameer and Payal were busy decorating the house.
Sameer couldn't go to him hometown as he didn't get his leaves approved. But his mother had sent lots of homemade sweets and other stuff for him. But he was not sad either. He was celebrating the festival with his new family.
He was happy to have a little sister like Payal.
They had invited Dr Roshni and Aisha for Diwali and Payal was having fun looking at her brother's blushing in presence of their respective lady loves.
As usual Arjun scared Payal with crackers but this time she had Sameer by her side fighting with Arjun.
----------------------------
On Bhai dooj
Payal, Arjun, and Mr Rawte get emotional.
They were celebrating it together after a long time.
Sameer too got emotional. He didn't have a sister and felt happy that for the first time in life someone will be doing his "Tilak" on Bhai dooj.
Payal does the "Tilak" to both her brothers and as a gift she demands for her "Bhabhis" opening their secret in front of Mr Rawte.
Mr Rawte bursts into laughter hearing that Arjun was in love with Dr Roshni and Sameer was in love with Aisha.
Both of them are embarrassed and furious at her for this.
They try to get hold of her but she runs away sticking her tongue out to them and they chase her around the house.
Mr Rawte was still laughing so hard looking at their antics that his eyes well up in a few seconds. He looks at his wife's photo with teary eyes and smiles.
His family was together again and was going to be complete soon.
----------------------------
Finally done...
How was it?
Have written in hurry... please forgive me for any errors... didn't get time for much of research.
@ Payal... iske liye tumhare jiju se jhagda kiya hai... when he asked "Is this story more important than me?" I said "Yes" ... 
And last but not the least
Say no to drugs.
Long-term use of drugs can have major effects on your body.According to a report done in 2000, by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, drugs kill more people than alcohol-even though seven times more people use alcohol than use drugs.
Some people start using drugs simply to see what the drug high is like. Unfortunately, this begins the drug cycle, which eventually leads to a chemical dependency to the drug. People continue to use drugs because they don't like the way their body feels when they come down from their high. The vicious cycle continues until their body develops a tolerance to drug, which causes them to consume it in higher does. Over time, a chemical dependency develops and their body doesn't function correctly without the drug. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, addiction occurs when a chemical dependency to a drug is combined with an overwhelming urge to use the substance.
