Adi...
Somehow controlling myself I went to wash my face, when I came out of the bathroom my eyes fell on a file lying on the desk.
"Now is the right time for this"
Thinking this I came out of my room, Riya was sitting on the sofa in front of the kitchen, I extended the file towards her and said
"You should see this"
Riya....
I was comfortably sitting on the sofa watching TV when Sir's voice drew my attention towards him. He extended a file towards me and said
"You should see this"
When I opened the file and read it, tears started flowing from my eyes. There were some such secrets in that file which even if Adi Sir had told me I would never have known.
Next day, early in the morning, Adi Sir took me to a broken shop. I went inside and saw my father, the person whom I had sworn to never call my father.
Today, I was crying while hugging him. He also hugged me with great love and holding my hands in his, he was saying the same thing to me again and again
"Son, forgive me. I could not save Ishika. I could not keep the promise made to both of you. Forgive me. Forgive me."
Adi Sir gave us both some time so that we could calm down. Then he looked at me. When I looked at him, I said thank you to him and he also nodded his head and supported me.
I made Papa sit on a chair and asked him to tell me everything. Then he told me that '
Past...
This is the time when Riya, her mother and her father shifted to the countryside. Everything was going well, all three were very happy, they were a happy family.
One day Anurag was standing under an office to do some work for his boss, and was busy handling the papers in his hand, he was not paying attention to anyone. But there were two eyes which were watching him one by one.
From that day onwards those two eyes started following him everywhere, at first Anurag thought that he was there but when all this increased, he also started noticing.
Anurag.....
At that time I did not think it right to tell Ishika, because she would have been worried. And I used to ignore it.
One day I got an offer from a very big company, I was very happy. After coming home, the first thing I told this to was Ishika, she was also very happy, but I was sad about one thing that I will have to leave both of you and go to the city for 1 year.
But Ishika encouraged me and I left from there promising to return soon.
When I reached that office, its building was very big. I became happy that now I will be able to give both of you all the happiness which you deserve.
But I did not know that that day will ruin our happy family. When I went to the room for joining, they gave me the job without asking anything. I was doubtful but they told me such good conditions that I could not refuse.
When I came out of the room, I again felt those two eyes following me. When I looked in that direction, a lady who seemed to be from a good family was staring at me. I ignored her.
In the beginning, I used to ignore her, and remembering you both and writing letters was my biggest happiness. But now it has crossed all limits, that lady has made my life hell. One day I got angry and said to her
"You seem to be from a good family, such things do not suit you"
She said something to me and went ahead smiling, then one of my friends came and told me
"Do you know who she is? She is the CEO here, Miss Ramya Thakur"
"CEO? But why does she stare at me?"
He said, "Look friend! I don't know this, but once they set their eyes on something, they make it theirs at any cost, and I think their next target is you, best of luck buddy."
After saying this he went away. Some time passed and all this went on but one day she called me to her office. When I went there she started trying to touch me again and again.
When I refused and told her that I was married she said "Marriage is just a mangalsutra, just tie it around my neck and we will get married".
I was shocked to hear her words, how can a girl think like this, I loved both of you very much, so I refused. As soon as I was about to leave the office, she stopped me and said, "And what if your so-called wife is no more."
My steps stopped right there. She handed me a file, when I opened that file I was surprised that it had all the information about our family. I fell right there, looking at her I said "Don't do anything to them, please"
Ramya said with a devilish smile "So you will have to do what I say, and from that day onwards I became just a servant of Ramya. I tried a lot to write you a letter but Ramya was watching my every move.
I could not do anything even if I wanted to, I thought a lot that I should somehow meet you both and tell you both but I was afraid that if Ramya came to know about it then she might harm you.
that is why when your mother recognized me that day I knowingly pretended that I did not know her, so that Ramya would not have any doubt and arranged for your stay at my friend Mr. Siraj Verma's place whom you know as Verma uncle.
From that day onwards I and your mother used to meet quietly. I told her everything and Also, how will I do it when Ramya is around and on that day when it was your birthday.your mother and I had gone to buy a gift for you and there I saw Ramya's brother's friend.
On seeing him, I understood that now Ramya will know everything. so I quickly said bye to your mother and left from there so that I could tell Ramya that I am in the office. and after some time the news came that my wife, your mother is no more in this world.
I understood everything, all this was done by Ramya. she came to know that I meet your mother and after that she started blackmailing me about you.
So before the burning of your mother's pyre had even cooled down.I had to introduce Ramya to you and tell you all these lies. My dear daughter ,forgive me.
I am not worthy of being called your father. I could not do anything for you. I am sorry daughter, I am sorry. Saying this Anurag started crying bitterly.
Riya hugged Anurag and said, "Papa, it is not your fault. You did what was right for us. And Papa, believe me, together we will defeat Ramya and mother's soul will also get peace."
After this, both of them hugged each other and cried for a long time. When both of them calmed down. Anurag asked Riya, "But how did you come to know about all this? I only received your call.
I could not understand anything." Riya shifted her attention from Anurag towards Adi Sir and said, "Because of him Papa." And after that she introduced Adi and Anurag to each other. Today, after so many years, both father and daughter were very happy to hug each other. Then they asked Adi
"How did he find out?"
Then Adi told that
"A few days ago, a letter came in Adi's name in which there was a file. All this was in the file. Who sent this file? Why did he send it? I don't know, but when I saw this file, I thought I should tell Riya and arrange a meeting between you two."
