PreeDit's room

Preeti is pacing nervously in the room. Pandit holds her and stops her. 'Preeti, this way it will not work. You need to calm yourself! We had decided it and it's right too. Don't worry everything will be okay! She is our daughter, our daughter. It's important for her to know!' 

'I know and I am ready too. Tab hi humne ye tai kiya tha na. But my motherhood, stops me, however much I try,' she emotionally replies. 

He hugs her. 'Preeti, mein humesha tumhare saath hu. Kuch nahi hoga, trust me! She has that right to know, and we will give that right to her!' 

She emotionally smiles. Just then, the sound from the clock, showing 10 mins left for it to strike 12 am, disturbs them. They looks at each other, giving each other strength to tell Kiara something, on her birthday, which is just 10 mins away. 

At that moment, Kiara came in the room and greets them. They once again looks at each other, and she speaks slowly. 'Kiara, I..We need to tell you something. Something, which..Um..Which..About your mom..I mean..' 

'Mumma, mein bhi aapse wahi baat karne aai hu. I want to know, who,' Kiara looks at her parents. 

'Yes, why not. It's..' Before he can complete his sentence, his daughter stops him. 'Wait a minute, I just come!' 

They looks at each other confused, as their daughter walks out of the room. 

'Mumma, Papa mujhe pata chal gaya hai meri Mom ke baare mein. Chaliye mere saath, aap bhi mil lijiye unse,' Kiara said coming in the room and holding their hands. They looks at each other shocked, wondering who their daughter wants them to meet.

Kiara's room

Kiara brings her parents, in her room. PreeDit looks at each other, wondering what's in the mind of their daughter. She holds her mother's hand and takes her to the center of the room, where a huge gift is placed. She tells her to open it. Preeti looks at Pandit, who nods in a yes and she opens it with shaking hands. 

Preeti is shocked, looking at her own reflection in the mirror. 'Mumma, meet my Mumma - Preeti Pandit Oberoi,' she said emotionally. 

Preeti's eyes are filled with tears of happiness. 'My one and only Mom in the world! If it was not for you, I would have been..Living the life of a s***..' She breaks down.

 Preeti emotionally hugs her. 'Never call yourself that. If it was not for you, I would not have got the joy of being a mother. You made me a mother. Tumne meri life complete ki hai! You are the best gift, that I could have ever got. We have a special connection, which is more than any blood relation in the world!' 

'Yes, Mom I will not! Aap sabse best hai Mumma. Humara connection wakehi  bohot special hai. Jis din se hum mile tab se meine, aapko Mumma maan liya tha, aur bhagwan ko bhi ye hi manzoor tha! Aapne apna naya rishta Papa se tod hi liya tha, almost mere liye! Mujhe bachaane ke liye, mujhe us narak se nikaal ne ke liye. Agar aaj bhagwaan bhi aakar mujhse kahe ki aap meri Mumma, nahi hai tab bhi mein nahi maanungi. Mere liye sirf aur sirf aap hi meri Mumma hai, aur aap hi rahengi! You are the best mother, anyone could have ever get! Mere liye, mujhe kisne janam diya wo maine nahi rakhta, jisne mujhe jina shikhaya aur jisne mujhe sanskaar diye wo maine rakhta hai, aur wo aap hai, aur humesha rahengi, chahe kuch bhi ho jaaye. I love you so so much Mom!' She hugs her mother tightly. 

Preeti caresses her and kisses her forehead. 'Seeing you on the sets of our first ever film, I started considering you my own daughter. I got to know, what a mother is and you gave me that feeling of motherhood. Without you, my life is incomplete and after your arrival in my life, it has complete. A mother can sense any unknown danger hovering over her children's life. When the question is of her children, a mother's heart is never at peace. The same happened with me, when I sensed that unknown danger, over you by your own uncle, who your birthday mother sold you to. And he was going to do the same with you. But before anything can happen, I came at the right and saved my daughter. I adopted you legally right after that and wanted to be your single parent, but your Papa and all the family members didn't gad any problem and supported me! And you are the best daughter, any mother could have got! I love you so much my princess!' 

'And Mumma, the kid's doesn't know it. And most importantly, they never asked it seeing our age difference. It will remain like that only then!' She said hugging her mother. 

Pandit emotionally smiles looking at the lovely and beautiful bonding of the mother daughter. 'Sara praise sirf Mumma ko, aur Papa ko? Don't forget me!' 

She laughs. 'Papa, mera bhi rishta aapse Mumma se hai. And don't be so jallu!' 

And the clock strikes 12 am and her parents hugs and wishes her a happy birthday. Suddenly, all the family members, came and wishes the birthday girl. 'Di, ye kya har saal ki tarha aaj bhi, Mumma Papa ne aapko humse pehle wish kiya. Not fair,' Veer and Krish sadly pouts. 

She laughs. 'Because they love me more, than you both!' 

'Yes, my pumpkin,' Preeti said kissing her daughter. She gets irritated. 'Mumma, yaar don't irritate me. I don't like this name!' 

'But I love it darling, and that's not going to change!' Preeti replies laughing. 

All laughs and enjoys the moment. They then makes her cut the cake and she first feeds it to her Mom and then her Dad, and then her siblings. She then feeds the cake to her Dadi, Dadu, Bade Papa, Badi Maa and Swanna. All the kid's applies the icing on her face and she too then applies on their faces. 

It's a happy family moment!
