***.After 1 week .***
Kiansha's Pov.
Its been one week since everything is back to normal. I am living in Shrivik's penthouse like I used to.
I have been going to my office since 3 days. Because I want to keep myself as busy as I can.
When I come back Advika come running to me and hug the soul out of me.
Pagal ladki hai ekdum.
But after I assured her that everything is fine, obviously she didn't listened and stayed with me for 2 days and nights straight making sure I am okay.
Abhi bhaiya also visited me because he and everyone at home was tensed as they couldn't reach me for that long.
Shrivik did a damn good job at hiding the whole things.
Only a few people know about it.
I don't want my family to know because I know how much they all care for me.
And if speaking honestly I don't want to talk about what happened.
I may have acted like I don't care back then but as I said I am an emotional person. I feel Everything so deeply.
But that doesn't mean I am weak. I can slap you while crying.
I am happy to be back and everything is back to normal too. But something is still bothering me.
Something which Mahir told me when I was there.
Something I won't have believed if he hadn't showed me that thing.
I tried to avoid it as much as I can. I don't want to think about it.
But I know I need to. I can't let it slide like this.
It is a important topic of my life. I already know the answers and I am still afraid to face them.
“We are here love” Vik says as he hold my hand gently in his own guiding me out of his private jet.
He gives me a encouraging smile and I smile back at him.
I come back to India. To meet my parents. It's been so long.
And I need answers which I already know.
As we make our way out of airport,a black Mercedes is waiting for us there.
The person waiting there hand the key to Vik and left. Then He goes to other side to open the door for me.
I smile at this.
Always a gentleman.
I sit inside and he also take his seat in front of staring wheel.
He starts the car and drive towards my house.
I was looking outside the window that I didn't even notice when he put his hand on mine and give it a reassuring squeeze.
I look at him with a small smile and he says “I am with you. Okay. Everything will be fine.”
And I nod.
I know he is with me. And maybe that is why I have this strength to do this today.
He knows me inside out. I didn't knew how our bond become this strong. But he is the best thing shivji give to me.
My Vik. My love. My partner. My soulmate. I am so blessed to have him.
When we reach my house he stops the car in front of entrance.
We get out of car and I stand there for few minutes looking at my house.
He come to my side and gently take my hand in his Intertwining his fingers with mine and give me a small nod.
I sighed and nod back as he lead me inside.
I never felt this strange coming to my own house.
To my own parents and family.
When we enter inside. I saw mom and dad and Nilansh and Abhishek bhaiya too.
I already informed them I am coming and want to talk to them all together.
Nil and Abhi bhaiya come towards me when they saw me and hug me tightly.
“Cupcake.”
“Chidiya”
They both says while hugging me. I also hug them back feeling the warmth of their embrace.
It felt like Its been so long since I meet my own family.
Since I meet my own self.
Okay...I take a deep breath stopping myself from crying.
They break the hug and mumma and papa come and hug me.
Okay..they surely wanna make me cry.
Not now kia. Not now.
Shrivik did handshake with my brothers and touch feet of my parents.
We all make our way to couch and sit there.
I look around at everyone's face and they all are waiting for me to speak.
Shrivik gives my hand a light squeeze as he was sitting beside me.
I look at him and nod.
Let's get this over with.
“Mumma papa...” I say and they both nod and papa say “Yes princess?”
“Who..who..is my real... parents ” I manage to ask.
And as the words left my mouth, I can feel my heart tightening and a lump forming in my throat.
Oh god...why I am Like this. I prepare myself whole week to ask this question and here I am on verge of crying.
When they Heard me their face became pale and eyes widened in shock.
“Baccha..what are you saying? We are your parents ” mom says.
“I know mumma. I know the truth.” I says in a whisper barely audible to even myself. But the room has pin drop silence so everyone heard it.
Mumma's face colour became more pale as she realised and papa held her hand to support her.
“What truth is she talking about dad?” Nil ask with shock and surprise.
“Kiki..” Abhi bhaiya says.
Dad take a deep breath before answering “No use in hiding this anymore Abha ji ”
She look at him with watery eyes as she nod and dad says “Kiansha is not our biological daughter ”
The words hits like a brick to my head.
I already knew it. So why is this hurting this damn much from their mouth.
Vik tightened his grip on my hand as tears form in my eyes..
Surprise can be seen on Nilansh's face.
Mumma has now tears falling her face and Abhi bhaiya is looking everywhere but at me.
“What the hell are you even saying!?? You guys even know???” Nil shouted.
But Abhi bhaiya grab his hand telling him to be silent.
He wanted to speak but look in my direction and his anger replaced with sadness as he sit down quietly.
“But we love you as our own daughter baccha. You are our only daughter. If we ever wanted we won't have a better daughter then you. You are the best child any parent can ask for baccha. So what if I didn't give birth to you. I still love you more then anything. And you are my daughter only . I am your mom. Okay. I am your mom only.” she says as she come and sit beside me while taking my face in her hands.
“You are my daughter baccha. You are kiansha Chauhan. Our kia. Meri beti ho tum. And it's the only truth you should know.” she says while crying.
Papa also come to me and kneel in front of me as I was sitting, he takes my one hand in his own.
“Princess, we love you more then anything. You are our own daughter. Don't ever believe in otherwise.” he says with teary eyes.
I manage to nod as tears fall down my face.
I know they love me more then anything. They Never let me feel like they are not my birth parents.
And call me selfish but I know I won't have ask for Better family then this one.
They all are have a deep connection with my heart and soul.
So what if we don't share the same blood. Right..?
They both wrap their arms around me in a tight hug.
After a minute they let go and I say “i know you all love me. And I love you all too. You are the best family I could have asked for.”
Mumma give a small smile with a nod as she stroke my head lovingly.
And dad held my hand in a reassuring grip and smile with teary eyes.
“But I want to know who are my real parents and how you guys find me? Do they hate me that they didn't want me as their child?” I ask as tears fall down my face.
Papa wipe my tears and say “They loved you more then anything princess.”
I looked up at them with confusion.
Papa look at mom and they both nod at each other.
“Lets start from the beginning. You deserve to know everything.” papa says.
He take a deep breath before saying
“Kirtika and Anshuman. This was the name of your birth parents.”.
Kirtika..? Mahir's father said I look like someone named Kirtika...did he mean that by my mother Kirtika..
“Kirtika was my real sister.” Mumma says with a small sad smile.
My real mother was her sister...?
Wait a minute...
“Was?” I ask and she nod.
She is gone..now I will never get to know my real mother...never get a chance to talk to her..hug her..ask her why she left me.
“Me, Aabha, Kirtika and Anshuman were college friends. We were a group. We used to hang out together, go out together and do everything together. I loved Aabha and Anshuman loved Kirtika. We all have plans for future. How we will always be together when we will get married and how we will have house near each other and how our children will be friends and play together like us.” papa says, a smile forming on his face as he explains.
“But what happened dad.? What happened that changed everything?” Abhi bhaiya ask.
“Our whole college knew about our lover group. But unfortunately there was someone who was not happy about it at all. He liked my sister. But she loved Anshuman. He confessed his love to Kirtika but she refused as she and Anshuman loved each other deeply.” mumma says this time.
“We all get married after college. And me and Rajesh ji had Abhi.” she says with a small smile.
“Kirtika and Anshuman didn't want to have kid this early. They wanted to explore the life a little first. They believed they will have a kid when they both will be able to being good parents. Because it was a big deal. They wanted to give everything to their kid.” she continues.
“and when we was expecting Nil..they also conceived, we all were so happy that we are having our babies together.” she says with a smile as she remembers the memories.
“But our happiness was short lived. It was her third month, when out of nowhere He come back to our life.” she says as her expression harden.
“Who?”Nil asks and papa says “The one who claimed to love Kirtika. The one who was a completely crazy person. The one who didn't want Their child to come in this world. The one whose name was-”
“Kashyap Rana” I says and mumma and papa looked at me with shock on their face.
So... that is what he meant when he say he loved someone else...he loved my mom..Kirtika.
“How do you know it princess?” papa asks and I says “First complete the story papa...I will tell you later.”
He give a little nod and says again “Kirtika went for her monthly checkup and We all were busy that day unfortunately. So she went alone. And he took the advantage of that situation. He kidnapped her and kept her in a secret place. We all try to find her for one whole month but nothing. After that long Anshuman was broken mostly. His wife along with his child was missing.”
“But my kirti was a brave girl. After one month of torture of that crazy man she escaped. But when she come back,she was so weak and have bruises all over her body. She told us that she was kept in ropes without food. And beaten.” mumma says as sadness hover on her face.
“And our worst fear come true when she goes to checkup next day...her child died due to lack of care and everything she went through. Her body was so weak. She was beaten so much because she refused to love back that psycho.” she say with tears now.
“Later we found that he was already married and had a child with a women..he was crazy..he claimed to love Kirtika..but his love was unhealthy. He had this obsession, not love.” papa says this time.
“After complaining to police, he stayed away from our family. Police took him in custody. We all were back to our normal lives. After few years, she conceived again. This time all were perfect. We all were there for her. After many years she was really happy. After losing her first child she was devastated blaming herself. She was already conscious about being a good parent. And after what happened she blamed herself. But when she get pregnant with you ..she was so happy.” she says.
“So happy to held you in her hands. So happy to give you all the love. She always wanted a daughter with Anshuman. They both were waiting for you impatiently. But during her delivery...some complications happened and she died right after giving birth to you...” she says as tears fall down her face.
