Part 48
The entire member's of Shantivan was running here and there.. It's already evening and they were getting late.. Today was a special day for them and they want to cherish this day in their own ways.. Even a lot had happen in this few days but they didn't want all those sorrow follow them as a shadow.. They was doing all this for Aryan.. The only grandson of Raizada.. The only person who brings back the family again today.. Even not fully but with his presence the family was again gathering and spending some time with each other.. Last time most of them was mesmerized in their own works but now the same feeling and the same existences was back.. The only they was waiting for the elder bahu (DIL) of Raizada to back in conscious.. The party was quite simple and only Raizada's was present and Maya.. The Gupta's already went back to Lucknow..
Maya: "Aryan come.. Let's cut the cake.." Maya called him while he was busy doing something which was unaware from the families..
Aryan: "Massi.. Wait.." He run to his father's room and open the door in one go.. He run in to find his father.. Which was nowhere in the room.. He went to the poolside and saw him standing there.. His papa's side look was been witness by him.. He can see he was sad and his tear drop on his cheeks.. He too was in pain like him and his mother.. "Papa.." he called softly not to make him surprised by the sudden voice.. Arnav hurriedly turn his face on the other side and wiped his tear.. He didn't want all this been seen by Aryan.. Even it was noticeable by his son..
Arnav: "Yes.. Aryan.." He turn and give him a smile which was trying hard to hide all this grief and pain.. Aryan slowly walked to him and pulled his hand down.. Instructing him to kneel so he can clearly see his face and his eyes.. Arnav do as been asked.. He kneels and raised his brow gaining the question for his inquiry..
Aryan(Cupped his cheeks): "Papa.. Why are you crying…??" That was a big pang on his heart.. He felt a big lump on his throat.. He didn't know what he should tell.. He remain silence and just waited for his son to proceed.. "Papa.. Mamma told once that Arnav Singh Raizada never cried.. My papa would never cried.. He was strong and he will never give up in all his mission.."… His eyes moist..
Flashback
Aryan was running behind Khushi who was just out after shower.. After meeting his father Aryan wanted to know more about him.. Even Maya have told him regarding his father but he wanted to hear all this from his mother.. He wanted his mother to define his father..
Aryan: "Mamma.. Tell me please something about Papa.. I wanted to know him.." Khushi give him an annoying look that show she wasn't interested in giving any comment regarding Arnav..
Khushi: "Aryan.. It's late.. Let's go to sleep.." She carry Aryan and make him sleep on the bed.. While she laid beside him and cover themselves with a quilt..
Aryan: "Mamma.. Please…" He asked in pleading tone.. But this didn't melt Khushi.. She was little angry on Aryan now..
Khushi: "Aryan.. Can't you understand.. I'm not interested to talk about him.. Why you keep on insisting when you knew it clearly.." Her voice was a bit high and that show she wasn't in a good mood.. Aryan nodded weakly..
Aryan: "Good night Mamma.." He wished her and turn his face on the other side.. He didn't which to show his mother that he was sad.. He only wanted to know about his father but he too didn't intended to hurt her.. Khushi looked at Aryan's back.. She knew he was hurt but she want him to understand her uneasiness.. She took a deep breath and looked at Aryan.. She slowly make him face her and she caress his red cheeks which was red now.. He was very sensitive and his skin always show that.. He can't stand long hour under the sun.. Which would make him turn all red and sweating.. Not to say he was weak or ill.. But his skin was too sensitive to take such heat.. Even he laugh he would turn all red.. He was grow up in Paris and the weather there was quite different from here..
Khushi: "Aryan.. Don't you want to hear about your papa..??" A big smile appear on Aryan's face.. He jump in excitement and looked at his Mamma.. But suddenly the expression changed and he looked down not meeting her eyes..
Aryan: "Mamma.. I don't want to hear anything.. I'm sleepy.." He was about to lay again.. But been stopped by Khushi.. She hold his hand and make him looked at her.. He was too mature from his age.. He didn't want her to continue as he can see her uneasiness..
Khushi: "You know right your papa is very handsome.." Aryan's eyes widen.. He didn't thought she would continue all this.. He jump on her lap and kiss her cheeks in excitement.. He was too happy to hear about his father and more exciting was he hearing all this from his Mamma.. The same Mamma who was refusing to tell him about his father before..
Aryan: "And.." He asked cutely that make her smile on his antics..
Khushi: "And he has a very beautiful eyes.. Just like you.. You always remind me of him.. When I looked at you I feel like I'm seeing him.." She smile remembering how Aryan always make her remind of Arnav.. The only person who was the cause of her pain.. "But one things was bad in him.. Which make me hate him sometime.." Aryan give her a question looked.. He was curious to know what was that..?? "His anger.. In anger he can do anything.. he can changed in monster and would destroy everything.. He didn't care his acted was causing someone pain.. He would make it hell of the person.. And.." She stop realizing what she was telling to a small boy.. Even Aryan's thinking was mature but she didn't want him to have a bad expectation of his father.. "But sometime he is good too.. They way he love someone was totally different.. He wasn't good in words.. He can never expressed his feeling.. He makes it done with his anger… But his anger answer all the question.. Even its hidden.." She lost in her own memory.. The memory where he would scold her like hell and then later repent.. Which was one of his routine..
Aryan: "Mamma.. Then..??" He shook her make her back to present..
Khushi: "Then nothing.. Come let's sleep.." She tried to pull him but he stopped her.. Showing his protested..
Aryan: "I want to hear more.." He wasn't satisfied with this much of information about his father.. He wanted to hear something good too..
Khushi: "What you want to hear..?" She gives up..
Aryan: "Massi said Papa is very strong.." Khushi frowned her brows didn't get what he was asking for..
Khushi: "SO…??"
Aryan: "Did Papa cried..?" She smile.. Firstly she didn't get what was the reason he wanted to know this and secondly does this ever matter to him..
Khushi: "Arnav Singh Raizada never cried in his life.. He was too strong.. He didn't let his emotion took over him.. He always remain a wall between his heart and brain.. It's hard to see him cry.." She told him the half truth.. She didn't want to tell him that his father cried once.. When he told her regarding his mother committing suicide and that was the only day she saw him crying.. But less did she know he cried for quite many time.. The time he saw her with hugging Shyam the time he truth of Garima was out the time his wedding anniversary which he spend half of the day in bathroom under the shower..
Arnav: "It means papas don't cry..?? And he don't feel pain..??" He asked in surprised..
Khushi: "There are some pain which can't be expressed in words.. He keep all his grief and pain in his heart.. He never let anyone knew what he was feeling.. He always hide his pain.. But there are sometime he couldn't hold the pain anymore and he would cried his heart out.. He would make people believe he is the ASR but inside he was only Arnavji.." The same Arnavji who can never hide his pain from his Khushi.. She thought..
Arnav: "Mamma.. Do you love Papa..?" Khushi was shocked to hear this.. She didn't expected this from Aryan.. She didn't even thought their conversation would end up here..
Khushi: "Aryan it's late.. Come lets sleep…" She make him sleep and he agreed without protesting anymore.. She make him sleep and lost in her own thought.. What's the point of loving him Aryan..?? What's the point of making the heart bleed again..?? A lone tear rolled on her cheeks.. He thinks he was always right.. The pain that he gives me was unbearable.. He took everything from me.. He snatched my happiness.. He leave me when I need him the most.. If on the wedding night he could give an explanation and end this wedding.. It won't be hurt at least my question would be answerable.. But he…??
Flashback end..
