Chapter 3

I opened my eyes when the sound of my phone's notifications hitted my ears . I took my phone and looked at it and got shocked as it was filled with notifications specially from f******k and I*******m .

Ok so it was my birthday , I*******m and F******k wished me a lot and my some so called friends also added some stories for my birthday and many messages were there but in those messages there was not of my mom and dad's message not even a single happy birthday was there from their side and here I was waiting for their call .

 I was saying this when I heard a voice coming from outside .

" Happy birthday dear ....."

Just this one line made a smile on my face but one thought came in my mind that only I and sir were there in the house and this thought gave me hope that he knew my birthday and I became super duper happy . I thought he wanted to surprise me and just thought that I got up and went outside. But when I went outside the scene took my smile away .

Meanwhile the scene ........

Sir was standing near a window with a photo in his hand and was looking at it with a smile and little moist eyes .

" So it's my princess's birthday hmm happy birthday princess . My princess do you know when you came in my life I was very happy , I even can't express my happiness in words , you gave me many lovely and memorable moments and your birthday is the most special day of my life but I wished that you could be with me . You and your papa could make a lot of fun together hmm princess . You know na how much your dad loves you , love you princess ." These were the lines I listen from him standing just near the door .

Saying the last line he kissed the photo but that scene made me very much sad but then I realised that there was nothing to become sad how he would know that it's my birthday , I am not his daughter but he loved his daughter very much , looked like he missed her very much and this thing cooked something in my mind and that was what if I became his daughter not for lifetime but just for sometime as he needed a daughter and I needed a father just like him . I thought it might be a good deal. Oh god I don't know why I always end up in dealing but leaving my thoughts aside I went near him .

" Hii , why are you standing like this ? Is everything fine ?" He asked in a very sweet voice keeping the photo aside and I just looked at him 

" Hmm, it's just my birthday ." I replied looking down .

" What!! It's your birthday you should celebrate ." He said this trying to cheer me up but I went near him and hugged him tightly and started crying .

" Hii what happened ?" He asked while rubbing my back but till now I started sobbing 

" I can celebrate but there is no one with whom I could . My parents never think about me even though they didn't call me today , they don't love me . I don't know why . From my childhood I am just willing to get their love but no they don't even look at me ." I said all that sobbing , I knew my words were not clear but they were enough to show my pain .

" Dear nothing is like that, every parent loves their child ." He said, trying to calm me down .

" No they don't love me , look at you how much you love your daughter even though she is not with you still you love her na but for my parents I am just like shares in which they are investing just to get profit and nothing more ." I replied and I was still sobbing . Sir was feeling bad for me but this also let him ask what I wanted .

" ok ...so what do you want ?" He asked and listening to this I left him and wiped my tears .

" Can't you become my father not for a lifetime but just for some months . I also want to get some dad's love and I know somewhere you also want to get daughter's love I will live with you , I will take your care and everything a daughter do for her father please don't say no please . " I pleaded .

He was speechless , he had no words to say . He looked at his daughter's photo and then again he looked at me . My innocent and teary eyes melted him and he gave me a smile saying yes . A big smile grew on my face and I hugged him very tightly in happiness , he hugged me back .

" Thank you thank you so much , it was my bestest birthday gift ." I just cheered up in happiness and he also smiled .He slightly caressed my hair and kissed on my forehead .

" Okay , so from now I am your daughter and you are my dad so I will call you papa ." I said while breaking the hug but my last word one word freshen up a hidden memory . Unwillingly his eyes became teary and a tear rolled down .

" Ohh I am sorry , okay I will not call you that , I will only call you sir ." I said this as I got that again and I made him sad . I said while wiping his tears but Sir smiled and cupped my face .

" No need you can call me whatever you want . " He said with a smile .

We both smiled but suddenly something came in my mind , I made him sit on the couch and said " Sir wait for a while I will be back okay."

Saying this I left , sir tried to ask me but I was in a hurry . I went inside the room and took that photo frame which I was seeing last night and then I went near sir running and jumping .

" Ohh hoo you will fall ." He said and I became happy knowing that at last someone cared for me .

" Then you are there na to heal my wounds hmm ."I said while resting my head on his lap and smiled , he was just admiring my innocence .

" Ok ok I am but for what you were racing in a marathon ?" He asked .

" For this now, quickly tell me who they are ." I said while showing him the photo frame , seeing the frame a smile came on his face , he took the frame and started telling me about his friends.

" My friends but for me they were more than my family ."he said while smiling .

" Ohh your family yes where is your family , I mean your mom dad ." I asked as if there really was no-one except him in the house . 

 " Hmm I don't have anyone, I am an orphan ." He replied and his this reply again made me to ask God why he do bad with good ones .But I realised that I asked a wrong question so I again said sorry , I don't even know how much sorries I said him but everytime he just smiled and forgave me and again started telling about his friends .

" Yes I was saying they were more than my family , they helped me even at the most critical situations of my life , these two were my best friends , one who is in the corner his name is Raghav , he was a complete tapori ." He said while laughing it looked like he was too funny and how much I know about tapories , they are in Mumbai. I myself like their style of talking and clothing .  

" Tapori Hmm, that's funny . " I said while laughing hard as tapori was a word to laugh .

" And he who is just with him is Om . They both were the same , they used to live freely , make fun and live life happily if you will just spend some time with them and you will get addicted to their meaningless talks ." He said while pointing towards another boy . 

" And what about these two?" I asked as now only 2 boys were left . 

" He who is holding my head is Abhishek , abhi dada and the one who is pulling my cheek is Aarnav dada .Both were my motivational speakers . Whenever I felt like I was not doing good or I can't do something they were always there to tell me what was wrong and what was right just like elder brothers , with them all I never felt that I was an orphan , they all were with me everytime to help me , to tease me , to make my fun and many more ." He said with a smile on his face and how much I know in Mumbaai people call elder brothers as dada so these two were older than him and how much he told me about them a question came to my mind . 

" Where are they now?" and atlast I asked .

" Happy in their lives , when I will get time I will try to meet them and also I will introduce you to them hmm . " He replied while thinking about something but at that time I didn't pay that much attention to it .

" Hmm yes , you know, for the first time in my life someone is answering all my questions . Hii hii one minute will you tell me about your love story ?" I know that I asked a good question , I was very much excited to know him and his love story was the best thing to know about him completely .

" Hmm ...my love story ?" He asked while hesitating a little . "yes yours." I replied .

"There is nothing interesting in it, just a normal boy trying to live a happy life with a rich dad's princess ." He said this and his last words attracted all my attention.

" Please na please please tell me , you said now I am your daughter , so will you hide your love story from your daughter hmmm." I pleaded as I wanted to know his story . 

--------------------------------------

So it was my one day story , I was living on this earth from 16 years . Oh yeah I forgot to tell you that day I just completed my 16 years . Now I am a sweet sixteen , but the thing which changed my life or you can say where I experienced something very much different from all my experiences was that one day . A man who helped me when I was unconscious took me to his house , hahaha at first I thought he might be some kidnapper but he changed my thoughts . 

He was the CEO of RUHI , India's most famous hotel and room services . Having everything he was there in that small house just to live his life with his wife and daughter's memories , I never thought that in world some people are also like him , I mean some people don't even care for alive people and he ... he was just living with his wife and daughter's memories , looked like he loved them very much but I have only one question if he loved them that much so what happened with them . I know how it feels when no-one is there to love you but waiting for them who will never come again ... I never saw that thing . 

His love for his daughter just touched my heart as I was very far from this type of love , I always wished to get my dad's love but it was like mission impossible for me but my this wish came to become the reality when he accepted me as his daughter , I knew it was too childish to ask him to become my father but being too kind he said yes and I was very much happy from that but my curiosity made me to ask that which was in his heart , his love story , a story between an orphan and a rich dad's princess .
