Epilogue
Two years later
The beach house was decorated grandly with lights making it look more beautiful than ever. The passers by wondered that some big party bash was going on. Yes, everyone were right it was party, celebrating Milind and Prachi's homecoming party. After living in London for two years they have finally decided to back to India. The main reason was Prachi's first pregnancy. Seeing that Prachi was missing everyone Milind finally decided to move back to India with her. It was Alaap's idea of throwing the party even though Milind did not approve of it, but anyhow approved it for their happiness and satisfaction. Alaap, at present is a owner of pharmaceutical company. He did not wanted to continue the business with Milind as he did not want to touch anything that Inder had touched before. Seeing this Milind and Neev both of them helped in establishing the company. PL, could not stay any more in the Shah Mansion after her son and daughter went away without looking back at that Mansion again. She thought Alaap needed someone to take care of his kid Rithwick, and she stayed with Alaap, when she saw that her son showed no interest on the second marriage. the only soul that lived in that Mansion was Inder who was abandoned by his own family. Inder had tried many times with to talk with Prachi, but Prachi denied talking to him. The party started and the guests started coming in. Sukruthi made a decision of visiting her brother and sister in law daily, so she could spend an ample time with them. Prachi and Milind had planned to shift their house from the penthouse to their beach house, as they needed lot of free space for their kids, and Milind thought that beach house was a perfect for his perfect family.

All gathered around, Milind and Prachi stood with Sukruthi, Saket and Alaap, chit chatting about the days they all missed being togther. "ok, I can find someone missing in this group." Milind asked them, while his eyes were searching around for someone. "hey, where is your gangleader and her tail Sukruthi" , Milind enquired about their absence, becoz they would be the first ones to enter such parties. "what bhaiyya", Sukruthi replied with a laugh on her face. "still you didn't forget the nicknames you kept for Ayesha and Neev bhaiyya. I forgot to tell, Neev bhaiyya has just rang up and said they are on the way." "don't worry Milind", Saket answered who saw Milind rather puzzled why Neev and Ayesha were late to that party. "it is that Rishi who is the main troublemaker in their house. they need to cope up with him and make him ready and all. This makes them late to the parties in recent days." "by the way who is this Rishi" Prachi interrupted when she heard Saket talking about Rishi. "forgot bhabhi." Sukruthi asked Prachi, "that fellow is Ayesha and Neev's son." Prachi widens her eyes, hearing about Ayesha's son. "oh sorry, actually it was totally out of my mind." "ah, your leader……..remember the name of the devil and devil appears." Milind declared seing AYesha who was standing by the entrance and searching for Milind and Prachi. When Ayesha came to know the truth, two years ago she at first thought of not forgiving Milind. But later after knowing that it was not Milind's fault and seeing Prachi being happy with Milind, Ayesha had to change her mind. Ayesha approaches Prachi and gives a warm hug, she was followed by Neev, who was putting Rishi down. he also approaches and gives a hug to both Prachi and Milind. "missed you'll both a lot." Neev uttered with a glow on his face. "actually me and Prachi missed you'll a lot." Replied Milind with a warm smile on his face. The party was going on well. Prachi was getting exhausted and decided to sit beside her mother, so she could catch a small talk. Seeing her daughter, beside her, Pl puts her hand on her head she started stroking her head gently. "how are you. didn't miss everyone here" Pl asked looking at her with her lovingly. "yeah missed everyone a lot. But you know I didn't feel that I missed evevryone so much when Milind was around." Prachi replied staring at her husband lovingly, who was enjoying with his long lost friends. "so Prachi, when is your appointment to doctor due." PL asked Prachi. "ma, next week. But why." Prachi repield sleepily. "nothing." PL paused seeing Milind sitting beside with the plate full of dishes. "I just wanted to accompany my daughter to the doctor, to see how my grandchild is progressing." "sorry ma", Milind replied putting a spoonful of rice into his mouth. "actually I have so many complaints to complain to her gyneac. She never eat anything properly." Milind complained, while forcing a spoonful of rice into PRachi's mouth. "and ma, don't tell grandchild everytime. Tell granddaughter." Milind continued, while PL saw MIlind feeding Prachi and he eating in the middle. "your daughter won't eat anything before I eat, so I should do like this." MIlind explained seeing Pl's dilemma.

"so Milind you conformed it would be a daughter." PL changed the topic, not wanting to stare at them for fearing of an evil eye on them. "yeah definetly, ma a little angel, just like your daughter." Pl smiled at them lovingly, after Milind replied. "no Milind it will be a son like you." PRachi objected Milind's reply. "No Prachi it will be an angel like you." Milind stood firm in his words. "no, I want a son just like you", PRachi sat to her words firmly. Pl smiled at their childhishness, "ok, ok stop fighting." PL interrupted them, "don't fight. What if you'll both have twins. A boy and a girl. What say." Pl asked them with a spark in her eyes. "so it be ma,"Milind replied happily. "it will be a double celebration." He sees at his wife lovingly and winks at her.

6months later:-
Milind was pacing up and down worriedly in the corridor of the hospital. All were sitting on the chairs and were worried. No one dared to stop Milind. He was getting more worried hearing his wife's cries due to labour pains. Alaap stood beside his mother with his one leg up on the wall, going on noticing Milind who was still pacing there. he did not care for the doctors and nurses coming out and going inside the labour room. "dammit", Milind's voice came out in a loud whisper, everyone looked at him for a second. But no one asked him what happened. "these good for nothing doctors doesn't know anything." Again mumbled in a loud whisper. "these are troubling my wife so much. I asked them to perform ceasarean operation, so that she can delivery the babies without pain means." He glared angrily at the nurse who was going in, but she also glared him back angrily. Seeing this Ayesha started giggling making Milind more angry. His face was turning into red hot. "I'm going to sue them if anything is going to happen to my wife." Milind again mumbled furiously ignoring Ayesha's giggle. This time hearing Milind, SUkruthi joined Ayesha in giggling. "excuse me, don't think your wife alone in this world is experiencing this pain. Every woman has to go through this pain. Even I and Sukruthi went through this pain."Ayesha snapped at Milind. But Milind did not looked convinced. Seeing that it did not effect Milind, Ayesha sat quietly. All of them suddenly looked at the room, after hearing the baby's cry, Milind took a long breathe of relief seeing the doctor coming out with a smile on her face. "Mr.Mishra it's a son." She casually told and was about to go inside. But seeing Milind rushing inside, "stop, why are you going in" she shouted at him curiously. "why would I go inside, to see my wife and my baby." Milind replied seeing her in bewildered. "don't you remember that you are going to have twins, and the other one is yet come out in few minutes. Be patient." She said, as her cheerful face disaapeared and a disgusting expression appearing on her face. "for last time I'm requesting. Atleast now you perform operation." Milind requested in a stern voice. 'for what Mr.Mishra. are you gone crazy. What's the need of an operation when she is going to have normal delivery without any complexities. You are unnessacarily risking her life." The doctor replied Milind, getting equally irritated. "no, you are risking her life without operating her." Milind shouted back at the doctor. Seeing it was impossible to argue with Milind, the doctor turns towards Alaap who was standing there in the corner. "excuse. Please try to convince this impossible person, I'm going to risk my patient's life arguing with him like this." Saying this she dashed inside the room angrily. Milind stood there glaring at her, gritting his teeth angrily. Alaap comes forward and puts hand on Milind's shoulder, Milind looked back with teary eye. "Alaap, see them they are torturing her……."Milind said in a crying tone. "Milind it's not a torture……"Alaap responded back. "now you don't act like a school boy, crying like that. Everything will be fine. Now don't roam like a maniac, come and sit down." he assures and forcefully made Milind to sit on the chair.

Few minutes later, they hear the second cry. Milind was ready to dash inside but Alaap stops him going inside. "Wait a minute till the doctor gives you the permission. Otherwise, that doctor will throw you out of this hospital." Alaap started teasing him. "ok, Mr. Mishra, congratulations finally. You have a boy and a girl. Now you can seee your wife." The doctor declared, still putting on an disgusting expressions on her face while facing Milind. Milind rushed inside before others could go inside. Prachi had just got up from her sleep and saw Milind rushing towards her. "are you fine."Milind asked her concerndly on his face. "I'm ok. But tell me you were scared out there na." Prachi replied seeing his weary look on his face. But before he could answer, he saw two nurses bringing their twins in. Prachi led their son while milind strechted his hands to hold his daughter, the nurse just changed her expreesion into anger seeing him there and gives him the baby to him and goes off mumbling something. Prachi didn't know why all the staff in the hospital were angry on Milind. "ufff at last Prachi, everything went well", Ayesha said sitting beside Prachi so she could look at the babies clearly. "if not either your husband or the hospital staff would be in the jail after today." Prachi looked her face rather puzzled not understanding what Ayesha meant. "Prachi I'm happy that both ouy wish had fulfilled today." Milind suddenly changed the topic, looking cheerfully towards PL who was standing towards the corner of the bed. Milind was totally involved seeing his kids deeply and sudden ring of his cell made him jerk a little. Being conscious of holding his baby, he places her in the cradle and goes to a side talking softly. Rithwick and Siddarth who just entered the room, surrounded the cradle trying to playing with the baby and the others were taking close look of both the babies alternatively, trying figure out their features. "what.." Milind screamed suddenly making everyone in the room turn towards him. "today tho Milind will be dragged out of the hospital." Ayesha said teasingly. "mind you if you send any of the media persons inside, the first one to be blow is you. did you understand." Milind shouted at his secretary who was on the other side on the phone. Meanwhile Neev entered with his son Rishi, seeing rithwick and Siddarth standing near the crable, Rishi runs towards it excitedly towards them. He then slowly raises his feet and puts his face his in the cradle, to get a better view of the face. Milind suddenly turns his head, and shrieks out and runs towards the cradle. He lifts up Rishi with his hands and goes towards Neev who was standing there, he became anxious Eiing Milind lifting his son. "Neev be careful in future. Don't let your son near my daughter."Milind warned him. Hearing that Ayesha started laughing, "not a bad idea, Prachi." Ayesha said to Prachi, who started laughing. "what idea." Milind shouted back. "actually I think my son is in love with your daughter, so……………." "don't even think of it, Ayesha", Milind replied back with a shocked expression, before Ayesha could complete the full sentence. "see Milind, I know you would miss your daughter, so what if we'll marry our daughter to your son." Ayesha asked Milind raising her eyebrows. "Daughter!"Prachi enquired Ayesha, "yeah Prachi, I'm pregnant for second time. I'm thinking this time it would be a girl." Ayesha declared cheerfully, whike PL slapped her forhead with her palm. "if it so Ayesha, I should keep beware of devils board infront of my house then." Milind started pulling Ayesha's leg. "what do you call my kids devils? How dare you."Ayesha barked back. "yeah what's wrong in that, devil's kids are devils, if not what." Milind replied with a wicked smile on his face, while sitting beside Prachi. Seeing that ayesha was ready to blast on Milind, "ok why are you'll surrounded like this. Allow Prachi to take some rest." Saying this she pulled ALaap, while rest of them followed her leaving Prachi and MIlind alone with their kids. "so, PRachi what did you decide to name your son."Milind asked Prachi, who was still holding the baby boy. Prachi simply smiled, and looks at his face. "Ansh……Ansh Mishra, how it is." Prachi asked about her descion on his name. "yeah such a beautiful name."Milind was overjoyed hearing his son's name. "so our daughter's name is Arohi. How is this." Milind said winking at her. "it's so sweet MIlind." Milind smiles at her and place a kiss on her forehead. He helps Prachi to place his son in the cradle and hugs Prachi, "I missed you a lot Prachi."MIlind utters. He then held her towards his chest and stokes her gently. They hear footsteps near the entrance of their room. Both look out towards it lazily. Prachi suddenly clutches Milind's shirt tightly and shuts her eyes tightly. Milind tell him to leave from here soon. I don't want to talk to him or see him or allow him inside where our kids are there." Prachi shouted hysterically. Hearing her, Inder stopped from coming inside and turned back with a sad and expressionless face. "Prachi I think you should have….." "no MIlind, please don't talk about it, when I'm excited about my kids." Prachi replied without hesistating. Prachi then leans her head on his chest and dozed off, before Milind could anything further about that matter.

Three months later.
It was almost 10pm at night. Prachi had just finished feeding Ansh, and Ansh had just dozed off while on feeding. She was fondling looking at him, "like father like son."she whispers, while a smile playing on her lips. She was staring at him forgetting the whole world around her. She then looks into the cradle where Arohi was sleeping peacefully, she then stikes her thin hair softly, very lovingly and proudly. She was alerted by the sound of the knob turning. She looks towards Milind who just entered the room wearily and tired. "Milind are you all rite"Prachi asked him concerdnely. "yeah I am, don't worry about me." He slowly sits beside her, taking their son in his arms and placing him in the cradle. He then rocks the cradle gently, then looks at Prachi. "I don't know how to or what to tell now.:Milind said slowly kneely observing her expressions, changing into puzzled expressions. "few minutes back." he pasuses and looks at her still puzzled face. "Alaap called me telling……………"Milind stopped and lowers his gaze. "Milind tell me, anything happened to ma"Prachi asked Milind worriedly. "no, it's not your ma, but it's your dad." Milind looked at her, whose expressions went blank on her face. "your father had expired few hours ago. Even doctors could not testify whether it is a suicide or a natural heart attack." Milind looks at her, but she did not responded. "prachi."Milind started shaking her. "please don't stare blankly, speak out something." Milind got worried seeing her like that. "I know would be going in your mind, Prachi. They need you there now. I will be taking you there, so you can take look of your father for the last time."saying this Milind tried to pull Prachi from the bed. But Prachi, did not get up from the bed. "Milind what about our kids." Prachi asked, "yeah I'll make some arrangements so we can……." "no Milind, they are not going there and we are also not going there Milind."Prachi said adamantly. "but PRachi he is your father and it is your duty." "he is not my father Milind." Answer came adamantly from PRachi. Milind helds her against his chest and starts stroking her hair. "milind I'm tried", Prachi said in a loud whisper, freeing herself. Milind again takes her in his arms, he knew that Prachi was crying even though she did not let out her tears. All the night Prachi kept on crying silently and Milind was awake laying beside her. He decided to talk to her the next morning. The next morning, Milind woke up wih a start, he saw around himself, he saw Prachi seill sleeping with her head on his chest. He did not have any heart to wake her up. He slowly gets up , checks on the babies, who were also sleeping and goes to the wash room. After coing out, he sees Prachi rocking the cradling with a sad expression on her face. He sits besides her, "Prachi, for a last time just take a look at your father, this afternoon, they are perfrmig the last rites. So it would be better if you are there also." But PRachi ignored and went towards the dressing table, taking out her bangles. "Milind this won't happen. I'm not interested to go there." Milind thought it was waste now and decided not to force her. The next the headlines flashed in the newspapers. "Inder Shah's last rites performed. His dearest daughter is missing during his last rites."

Three years later.
"Ansh listen to him, or I'll slap you. be a good boy and open your mouth." But Ansh ignored PRachi's scoldings but just ran towards his tricycle sits on it and starts riding it. "Ansh your just impossible like your father." Prachi shouted at him again. She runs from the opposite direction, holds him and forcefully opens his mouth and pushes a spoonful of rice into his mouth. "don't spit it out this time. You'll get slaps from me, if you do so." She warns him, who was staring with his angry wide eyes. She then moves towards Arohi, who was sitting on the sofa and playing with dolls", Prachi sits besides her, "so tell me Jonny Jonny, yes papa." Prachi starts buttering her. Arohi starts telling leaving some words here and there. when she nears the ending part, PRachi tries to compltes the sentence. "open your mouth……." She gets the spoon near Arohi's mouth. But Arohi instead she moves her head side to side. "arohi you didn't complete the sentence……. Open your mouth." But instead Arohi.. "hmmmmm……"hummed with her lips tightly closed. Prachi holds her and presses her cheeks making forcefully open her mouth and pushes spoonful of rice into her mouth also. She then goes towards Ansh, who was hitting the dining table with his tricycle. "now what are you upto, huh. Why are you spoiling the furniture like that. Come on open your mouth." Ansh opens his mouths, seeing that he had opened his mouth Prachi, takes another spoonful of rice and was about to pt it in his mouth he closes his mouth and flungs her hand making the rice in the spoon fall down scattering over the area and rans hiding behind Milind who had just entered the house. Arohi also follows her brother and hids herself also behind him. Prachi followed and stood infront of Milind fuming with anger, exhausted and looking tired, ignoring the strands of hair that were falling on her face. Seeing in that state, milind bursted into laugh. "are you feeding them or they feeding you", Milind commented taking out the rice grain that stuck up on Prachi's cheek, making her eyes teary. She then angrily keeps the bowl on the table and runs into the kitchen and starts crying. Milind curses himself, for laughing at her , follows her into the kitchen. He slowly places his hand on her shoulder but she pushes away. He then turns her towards him , taking into his arms, he starts wiping her tears away. Prachi hugs him and starts sobbing. "Milind I'm failing, I'm failing I can't take care of them properly." Milind could hear her between the sobs. "PRachi who told that you are failing. I'll tell you that you're the best mom, anyone could have." Milind replies trying to console her. "Milind, I can't alone take care of them."PRachi says dejected. "who told that you are alone. Actually it's my mistake today. I was so immersed in the work that I forgot to look at the time and come fast." He looks at her for second. She was trying to control herself. "but one thing I'll tell you that you managed that little devils so well till now." Milind said with a smile on his face. "Milind they are kids and you say that they are little angels." Prachi asked him, while a smile appearing on her face. Seeing that he rolls his eyes, "hey Prachi, your charm is still there. you make me bowled over you again and again", Prachi just smiles at him hitting on his arm playfully. "Milind stop buttering me, we should feed our kids." Both goes to the hall together, Milind goes towards the kids who were pulling a doll to their side and lifts them in his arms on either side. He then slumps them into the sofa and sits beside them while Prachi starts feeding them and Milind telling some stories. After feeding them they carried each of them, who dozed of down on the sofa while hearing the stories even after finished eating. They lay them on their bed and starts patting each other. Suddenly, milind feels worried and leaves the room. Seeing this, prachi pulls up the covers and leaves the room after switching off the lights of their kids room. She comes down and sees Milind standing outside and staring at the beach. She knew he was there. slowly she covers herself with a shawl and goes out. Te cold breeze was making shiver eventhough she protected herself. She fold her hands and stands beside him.

She slowly places her hand on his which was on the railing. He turns his face towards her and turns back towards the sea. "what happened"Prachi asks him concerndly. "nothing, PRachi bit scared." Still gazing at the sea. "scared about what." Prachi asked him puzzled. In these five years Prachi never saw Milind so scared of something. She leans her head on his shoulder. "nothing , but when I see Arohi, it remainds of you and your father." Milind takes a deep breathe and sees towards Prachi who was feeling uneasy. "Prachi", Milind called her, "hmmm"came out a lazy reply from her. "why don't you forgive your father atleast now." He asked Prachi, still knowing the reply what she would give. "Milind why are your comparing with him. I know that you never commit any mistake and regret it later." "do you trust that much Prachi."Milind asked her still looking at the sea. "yes Milind", "so Prachi did everyone come today morning"Milind changed the topic. "yeah Milind and you know what your son did today." "What Prachi." Milind asked her excitedly to know what Ansh had did. "he gave a tight slap to Rishi." Milind bursted out in laugh. "what"Milind asked Prachi to get clarification. "nothing big Milind, Ansh saw Rishi around Arohi and just slapped him. He's so possive like you Milind." "and what about Rishi's mother, Ayesha. I think she would have brought the entire house down." Milind asked Prachi. "nah Milind she just casually told that she was seeing you then", Prachi let out a laugh softly. "Milind what if they fall in love." Prachi added. Milind pulled her towards him closely. "let them fall in love. It's their life and it's their decision. We are not going to interfere in their decision." Milind replied casually enjoying the cold breeze. "and also they decide what would they become in future. We are not forcing them." "yeah Milind,it will be their wish and every decision will be theirs. But let them grew up Milind." Prachi repilied staring him. Both of them goes inside hugging each other, happily without any worries. Both had got each's other's love in all these years and their kids who were the result of their true love.
