Next day at khurrana residence
The next morning, at breakfast every family member was worried about Adhya's future.
On the other hand, Adhya was feeling bad for putting her family in this situation. She knows how sensitive issue is this, and also afraid of rudra's rejection. If rudra rejects her then will Abeer go against his brother's wish or will follow his brother's order. Adhya was going mad thinking about the consequences she cursed herself in her mind
" Yehi ladka mila tha Mujhe Pyaar karne ke liye " ( I got only this boy to fall in love )
But she want some answers from Abeer so she messaged Abeer to meet her in the evening ., in the same restaurant where they usually use to meet.
Abeer knows already what will adhya go to say but he was already well prepared with the answers.
In the evening while returning from the officè both of them entered the restaurant in time, after placing the orders for snacks and coffee. Adhya started her talk
" look abeer you know I love you and want to get settled with you, yesterday at dinner I like your mother too as she is a very sweet lady ., but what I am ... I mean .... see please dont take it otherwise ., but ...
'Adhya come on say it clearly whatever you want to say, I am not going to judge your love"
Adhya took a deep breath and then said
"I don't understand why your mother seeks permission from your brother, I mean your aunt is elder than your mom so it's fine to take her permission. But why your brother . .. see I mean he is not older than your mother right. Then why he is so important ."Abeer smiled at her "I know what are you feeling right now, and it's obvious too. You know adhya when my papa and bade papa met with an accident,bhai was studying abroad at that time when he got the news he returned to India. From that day his dreams his priorities, and everything got changed. The only aim of his life was to handle the Shekhawat empire and keep the family safe.
"I was just 11 years old at that time for my good upbringing he send my mother to London at my grandparent's home as he want to save me from the hardships and upcoming misery to live without my father. He is still a bachelor, he doesn't marry because he did not want to focus on anything else than our business and family, another main reason was he doesn't want a girl who will enter our home and divide the family for her comfort ."
"My late grandfather already divided the property between my father and bade papa. But after my father's death my mom was shattered badly as she was always been a housewife she doesn't know anything about business and I was just a kid. Rudra bhai takes care of both the properties and trusts me he still gives the profit of our share to my mother's account. He also expands more business in the name of my mother and me ."
"My bhai is the head of the family from his young age and he has earned that respect. Still, you think that my mother did not need his opinion ."
"Respect is earned Adhya, and my bhai truly deserves this. "
Adhya was stunned to listen so much about rudra's life, she respected that selfless human being in her mind. But still, the thought of rejection was ringing in her mind.
" Ok, I understand now that his permission matters to you and aunty, but what if he rejects me abeer, I am afraid of his rejection ."
" You don't know my bhai still you are assuming rejection, see my bhai loves me a lot and for him, my happiness means a lot. I know he will happily accept you in our family "abeer stated confidently.
"You are acting so confidently, as you know he will not reject me "
"Yes dear that's true I am sure that he will never reject you for me."
" Ok if you say so but my family is worried abeer, they also want my happiness "
'Tell them to relax, as soon as bhai will return I will personally talk to him about this and his answer will be yes I know "
"I love you abeer, I have many dreams about our wedding. I have imagined many poses for our pre-wedding and then wedding photoshoot. I hope everything will go fine "
" I love you adhya, I also have many dreams about our honeymoon. I have imagined you with me in many positions first on our wedding night and then on our honeymoon. I hope you will not be able to refuse me that time . " abeer stated same as her, in a serious way.
Adhya took two minutes to understand what he said then she hit his arm with a small punch and leaned to his shoulder smilingly with her red cheeks. Abeer kissed the crown of her head and laughed at her innocence.
Abeer liked this quality of adhya that even though she is born and brought up in London but from her heart, she is just like any other Indian girl. They both know their limitations, the relationship between them was just some huge kissing on the cheeks that's all. They both want to wait till marriage for a physical relationship.
After some chit chat, they bid bye to each other and left for their homes. At dinner time when the khurranas were settled for dinner. Dadu asked adhya
"Aadu did you talk to abeer about his brother's acceptance thing "
"Yes dadu I talked to him and he told me that his brother will accept this proposal. As his bhai always want abeer happiness first ." Adhya replied
' Is his bhai married?" again drishti started.
" No '
' I think he is elder than abeer, right "
"Yes almost 11 years "
"Still he is a bachelor"
'Yes "
"But why? I mean they are calling themselves as well cultured and rich still he couldn't find a girl for his elder son " "drishti said in a mocking tone.
" Mom he doesn't want to get married"
"Ooh ! you mean he is gay or maybe some issues right "
"Mom how does it matter to us haa, I am going to marry abeer, not his elder brother, so please relax and let me relax too ."
" what do you mean how does it matter us, what if they say that first, we will get older brother married than younger one, tell me then what will you do,haa, wait for the old man to get married "
"He is not that old maybe in his mid-thirties and handsome too, " Ashish interrupt their talk
" dad you too, please dont provoke mom " adhya whined to his dad
"I am telling you there is something wrong in their family you know like they are hiding something. See how their elder son has the authority over everything of shekhawats. I think they are hiding a .. a secret "
"Boli sherlock homes, " devrat murmured in a low tone. ( sherlock homes started)
Which was heard by Ashish and Adhya who snickered at his comment.
Drishti was looking at the trio in confusion, as she was discussing a serious matter so why are they laughing ?.
"Why are you three smiling ?"
" Nothing drishti we are just proud of you that how much you are worried about adhya's future, what a great mother you are " Ashish handled the situation at hand.
Drishti blushed at his compliment and felt proud of herself as his husband complimented her in front of the old man.
Little did she know
The weather was cold , chilling winds were flowing in the valleys of Kedarnath. The hotel was not so lavish, matching his standards but he was satisfied with the view of the temple which he can see through his hotel window.Rudra was just feeling the peace that he always found when he was near Mahadev. The outer world knows him as a successful businessman, a man of few words, a man who took all the responsibility for his family at a very young age,.and never disappoint anyone.Rudra's povPeace,... that is the only thing I am feeling right now, peace of mind, peace of soul. If it was possible I must have shifted to a place like this for the rest of my life. I know it is not possible for now but later .. after some years maybe when abeer will take responsibility of our business and our family successfully.Fifteen years back if somebody has told me that I will become a responsible, rude, saint type man in future, I must have laughed at their assumption.But everything changed for me fi
The next morning rudra reached the office and entered his cabin Mahesh was silently following him.The posture of rudra was enough that he is not in a good mood.Connect the call to the pi who I appointed for abeer in London.Mahesh connected the call and passed it to rudra.' Hello Mahesh sir, you are calling so late, is everything fine sirr .'"Rudra Singh Shekhawat speaking .""Hello .... hello sir, tell me, sir""Are you doing your job perfectly?"'Yes sir .. ask Mahesh sir I am giving the daily report of abeer sir "'Then please enlighten me who is this adhya khurrrana .and do you know she is abeer's love interest "" Sir ... she is a friend to abeer sir they usually meet and it is common here I mean gurl and boys hang out together so I didnt .... love I dont know "'You are dismissed from your job moron" rudra disconnected the phone call" Mahesh see to it that this moron should not get any job, am I clear "Mahesh nodded yes, he understood that rudra is in anger and it is relat
The next morning a message pinged on abeer's mobile he jumped from the bed after reading it, it was rudra's message to invite the khurrana family to shiv Ratri puja in Kasauli.Abir hurridly got ready and rushed to the dining table where garima is already waiting for him.He hugged her mother in excitement.'Thank you, thank you, thank you so much mom I love you I love you all ""You are a welcome child but only rudra deserves this thank you as he is the one who got agree to this alliance, to say the truth I was doubtful about rudra's decision as adhya is born and brought up in London and she doesn't know much about Indian culture, while rudra always thought that a traditional and cultured girl will suit more for our family.But see how much he loves you and give preference to your happiness more than his beliefs ""yes mom bhai has done so much for our family ""ok now give me mr Khurana's mobile no. I will call him to invite them ""But why you... I mean I can message adhya na, he
Abeer left for India with his mother before a week to Shivratri, as he has to clear many things about adhya to his family.When they reached Shimla,gauri was the only one who was present to welcome them in the Shekhawat mansion as rudra was in Singapore on a business trip, and will be back before a day or two to Shivratri.Abeer got disappointed with rudra's absence as he want to have a heart to heart talk with his brother. But now he has to wait for rudra's return.On the other hand in London adhya 's family started their preparations for the journey. Ashish and devrat already discussed that if everything went well they will at least do an engagement to make this relationship official.The day arrived when rudra came back from his trip late at night. The next day, rudra touched his chachi's feet for blessing and hugged Abeer who bent to touch his bhai's feet. After exchanging greetings they all got settled for breakfast.S group is going to start their first project in Singapore and
The next morning adhya got ready in a long Anarkali suit with a dupatta Drishti wore a beautiful saree with a sleeveless blouse, wrapped in a pashmina shawl as it is still cold weather in Shimla. Ashish and devrat wear simple kurta pyjamas. Drishti wore a diamond mangalsutra ., she then insists that adhya wear a chain with a diamond pendant. Adhya was not much fond of jewellery, but for her mother's happiness, she didn't refuse. Abeer reached the hotel on time ., garima also accompanied him. After exchanging greetings .adhya touched Garima's feet after giving blessings to adhya garima hugged her. They all started their journey.Garima suggested adhya and abeer come in SUV in the second car garima.And in the third one devrat Ashish and drishtiBefore going to her car garima nodded at abeer who blinked his eyes .only devrat noticed this, But he was sure that abeer wants to talk to adhya about something important, so garima is giving them privacy. The journey got starte
Shekhawat mansion ., Shimla.When they arrived at the shekhawat mansion, the Khurrana family were awestruck by the view of the shekhawat mansionWhen they entered inside they all got surprised by the interiors of the mansion which is having a touch of royalty in it.Every piece of furniture showpiece, chandelier even the carpet and curtain were looking very exquisite. But what impresses them more is the hospitality and down to earth attitude of the family members. Ashish was feeling ease in his heart as the Shekhawat family welcomed Adhya as she is already their family member.Both the families were sitting at the dining table for lunch. The servants enter with trays of different dishes. On the left side, the whole Khurana family was settled and on the right side the shekhawats.On the Khurana's side all the lunch was served but on the Shekhawat's side was all fast recipes, like sabudana vada,sabudana khichdi, sighade ka halwa and more.Devrat Khurrana were surprised to notice this .l
The next day the khurrana family visited the Shekhawat mansion in the morning to talk about their acceptance of this marriage and the engagement ceremony.Shekhawat family welcomed them smilingly, after exchanging greetings. They were all set in the living room adhya didnt come as it was the discussion between elders." Mrs Shekhawat I want to request something, actually we wanted to have an engagement ceremony before we leave for London to make it official .""I think that's a good idea " gauri chimed in excitement."And one more thing if you dont mind I want my granddaughter's wedding like a proper Indian wedding, I mean please come as a barati to London, I want the wedding in London ."Devrat requested hesitantly." Mr Khurrana I know you must have many dreams for your daughter's wedding, but... I hope you already know that... Abeer's wedding will be the only wedding in our house. Many relatives are waiting for this news for a long time. We always wanted a grand wedding for Abeer in
"What will I know adhya ?" rudra asked in a stern voice with a scary calmness that indicates danger.Listening to his cold voice, she was almost on the verge of fainting. The challenging tone in rudra's voice was well received by her .suddenly she noticed the ladies of the house we're leaving for shopping." Coming badimaa" screaming this she makes a run from there.Abeer laughed hard, looking at her girlfriend who was running like her back was on fire .rudra smiles at her antics. Both the brothers hi-fi each other.All the day adhya was cursing herself for doing this blunder at least she should care about the surroundings before speaking. But she was like this from childhood.After a tiring day of shopping, the ladies were exhausted. Shekhawat family insisted the ladies have dinner with them only, so adhya and drishti agreed.At the dinner table, rudra was notpresent as he was attending some dinner party with foreign delegates. This brings more relief to adhya as she was feeling emb
Two years later Abeer 5 yr old Dev 2 yr old Adhya and Rudra were sitting in the drawing-room of Sameer and Soniya's house, they were here to meet Soniya who met with an accident two days back in Dehradun while tracking and now sitting on the couch with a plaster on her leg. Adhya named his second son dev, and you can guess why. So dev is the total opposite of abeer, very naughty and talkative. It doesn't bother him that people are even listening to him or not but when he has to speak, he will. All the time adhya kept noticing saanvika as the teenage girl was taking care of her mother and also managing the house by assigning instructions to house help, she found it very adorable how she is behaving like a responsible child to her parents. " I must say bhabi, the princess is such an adorable girl, see na how she is taking care of you" " " Hmm yes I agree with this, you know I am also surprised sometimes at how my little girl became a responsible young lady. To tel
Six months later.Garima was still in Australia, giri was taking good care of her and she was feeling much better but still, she used to miss her family. Gauri even visited her once in these six months, that time giri Garima and gauri planned a trip to Dubai. Garima knew that this was only to divert her mind but she didn't want to trouble them but they were not ready for her stay in London.It was a sunny afternoon when Garima was reading some novel in the living room of Giri's penthouse. Giri had a collection of books and Garima always had a keen interest in reading, she used to pass her free time by reading some good work.Suddenly she felt like something was moving on the floor.She turned her head towards the movement where she found little Abeer who was coming to her by crawling on his knees. Garima got hooked. She blinked her eyes twice to confirm that she was not hallucinating. She used to video call girls to see him almost every day but she never expected to see him crawling.
The next day when adhya joined the breakfast table, abeer was sitting in the rudra's lap again playing with his ring, rudra was holding him with his left hand and having his breakfast with his right hand. Gauri was also present there, and adhya thought that rudra must be feeling uncomfortable so she tried to take abeer from his lap but that boy started crying out loudly and clinging more to rudra. " What are you trying to do?" Rudra asked her in a stern voice " I thought you must be... I mean I will take him you have your breakfast in peace" adhya tried to make her point " It's ok I am fine, let him be with me '" Okay adhya glared at abeer who smiled at his victory, she just shrugged her shoulders and got settled for her breakfast Soon rudra left for his office, and abeer didn't leave him until he reached the main door, rudra said sweet things in his ears to which he giggled, rudra signalled his nanny to take him and that boy happily came to the nanny without throwing any tantrums
The next morning when Rudra woke up his head was throbbing in pain he somehow managed to reach the washroom after taking a shower he came out and was shocked to notice the surroundings. It was not his bedroom. The memories of the last night came back to him, he was in the bar then he met Sameer, Sameer yes. He didn't waste time and reached his bedroom he only found the kids and soniya is present there, " Where is adhya ?" " She went to the nearby temple with Garima aunty."" Hmm and where is mom.? "Before soniya can answer him, Abeer starts crying loudly as he wants to reach his father. Rudra smiled at his eager son who was throwing his hands toward him. Rudra took him in his arms and kissed his chubby cheeks. Abeer giggled, enjoying his time with his father. Soniya was in tears again remembering the pain that Rudra was going through, she didn't know why but she hated adhya for this.Rudra looked at soniya again and noticed her moist eyes, he got worried for her." A
Adhya was sobbing badly hugging her dad, Ashish was trying to console her while keeping his pain at the edge. Drishti's condition was worse than theirs as in this last year she got closer to devvrat and cursed herself for the days when she behaved rudely with him. The relatives, neighbours and some friends who reached khurrana villa to pay the last tribute to devrat were praising the man who always behaved politely with others, a man full of life, he used to do many secret donations from his pension. Even Ashish drishti also didn't know about it.Devrat's body was lying on the ground covered with white cloth, Adhya was not ready to leave his side. She was crying badly calling for him but she knew that he was not going to hear her anymore. It was so unfortunate that adhya was already going through immense pain, of betrayal and at the same time, devrat's demise made her case worse, especially her mental condition.Gauri and garima were trying hard to console her but all in vain, rudra
In the coming days, Rudra became busier with his new projects but Adhya never complained to him for not spending much time with her. Whenever Rudra used to be at home, Abeer was found in his arms; he loved to adore his baby. Abeer used to throw a killing smile at his father whenever he was around.Abeer was just two months old but he started creating voices. Whenever adhya and rudra were talking he used to cry to get their attention. Rudra used to get surprised at his actions, as such an attention seeker was he. Adhya used to laugh at Rudra's misery. It was Garima's birthday that day, at midnight the family members made her cut the cake. Garima cut the cake while keeping abeer in his arms. Gauri rudra and adhya were delighted to see her face gleaming with happiness it was like she got a motive to live and it was again abeerThe next morning Rudra has to attend a meeting in Delhi so he left for Delhi, whereas garima decided to visit the temple. Gauri was dealing with knee pain so she
The Shekhawat mansion was decorated beautifully again not to welcome any guests but to welcome the Prince of their house. Abeer Rudra Singh Shekhawat When the car entered the main gate, the driver opened the gate for adhya who stepped down, holding the little boy in her hands. Rudra reached her and took the baby in his arms. He held her one hand to support her as she was still weak. When they reached the entrance of the house, Gauri and garima were already present there with puja thali to welcome the next generation of the Shekhawat family.Gauri put roli on the baby's forehead, garima followed her, and then they performed arti of the new member of the family. Garima took the baby in her arms and drishti and gauri made adhya settle on the couch placed in the drawing-room. Garima took the baby inside the house with shivering hands. She unlocked the door of a room, switched on the lights and with slow steps reached in front of the photo of his son.""Abeer, look who is he
The Shekhawat mansion was decorated beautifully and why not it's adhya 's baby shower. The Khurrana family arrived in Shimla a day before to attend the function.Devrat was still not well but in the excitement of adhya's baby and becoming a great grandfather, he came to Shimla even after Ashish tried to stop him .but, at last, they all have to agree with devrat. When rudra come to know about the deviant's bad heath he appointed a nurse for him in Shimla, as drishti will be busy in the preparation so it will be convenient for them. Ashish And drishti were again got impressed by Rudra's thoughtfulness. Rudra already decided that only some close relatives and family friends were invited to attend the function. When devrat Ashish and drishti meet adhya they all get emotional as they look at their princess who is going to be a mother soon. Adhya was going through the same emotions as she is meeting her family after a long time, Ashish and drishti were not able to visit Shimla becau

The accident happened at midnight when Veer Shekhawat was returning from his cocktail party. When we interrogated his friends they told us that he was very drunk when he left the party. His friend offered to drop him off but he refused them and chose to drive. Till now police are taking it as a drunk and drive case but still,l they are investigating further.Rakesh Shekhawat was sobbing badly on the cremation ground, Rudra was standing there with a hard expression on his face, he was just observing the pain that Rakesh Shekhawat was going through.
