Part 24

It was late at night, Ansh was sleeping beside his father. Richa was fed up with their emotional drama. She just got up and left Ansh's room

Akash- Everything is ok right? Between you and rajveer.

Ansh- Dadda, everything is ok. Why you suddenly asking this?

Akash- Ansh, see I know this marriage was not something you and Rajveer wanted. You people are very opposite. You are soft and calm, and rajveer, he is like a ball of fire. He gets angry easily. You have to be more patient with him. I am saying this because he is a very good man. I have seen him grow up in front of my eyes, beta. He is workaholic, but try to understand him as well. He cannot just change himself right. Same way you also don't have to change yourself. Tell him what you like and what you don't. Okay, bachha?

Ansh- yes dadda. Thank you for being the best.

Akash- Achha let me record and send to raj.

Ansh- naah, he is the bestest.

(Akash started tickling him. Both father and son duo were laughing and spending time. Ansh drifted to sleep. Akash stared at his son's face and smiled the widest before sleeping.)

On the other side, Veer was so angry that couldn't think properly. He decided to take Ansh with him for dinner tomorrow and speak to him.

Time skip-

It was morning and as usual Ansh woke up first and started making breakfast for everyone. He messaged his baba to come for breakfast.

Soon everyone came and settled on the table. Only rajveer was missing.

Akash- where is rajveer?

Malti- office aur kahan. Usko fursat kahan hai apne kaam se.

Raj- isliye mene mana kiya tha mere ansh k liye tumhare bete ko.

He is workaholic, short tempered and arrogant. Uske pass time hi nae hai and na hi pehle tha. He never spent time with us and the same thing he is doing with ansh.

Richa- Raj bhai, aap kya bol rahe ho. Rajveer is best for ansh. He is matured man. And kaam uska passion hai. Ansh dont listen to him, he is good for you.

(Sensing the tension, ray decided to divert the attention, by making non sensical jokes.)

Ray- Ansh, are you done? If yes, then let's go. Come

(Ansh took his bag and kissed his baba and dadda's cheeks)

Ray- Don't worry about what they say. Agar tumhe koi bhi baat pareshan kare, toh you know na dad and me, we both are there for you. Bhai se ladna mushkil hai even for dad, cause that man is a demon when is gets angry. He will go to any extent to claim his things. I didn't mean to scare you ansh, but I have seen how he looks at you. And I know, something is going on in your head. Sort it out, don't shut yourself. ( I saw him nodding his head. But didn't say a word)

( The day went by, it was hectic for both the boys due to long lectures and tons of assignments)

In office-

There was a knock on rajveer's cabin. After getting premission, his PA entered.

PA- Sir, the conference room is ready. These are the files you asked for.

Veer- let's go. I hope the team is aware. I don't want any issues.

PA- yes sir. Everything is ready and the team is well aware about the whole project.

Veer- ( I came back in my cabin and settled on my chair. This headache is killing me. Damn I need a coffee. I got to know that my baby has always been the one who made my coffee. Well when one day he was not there in our mansion,mom made coffee for me. And through her I got to know that it was always ansh who made coffee.

I decided to go early today, but this meeting took so much time, that now it's 7pm. I need to complete other works as well)

It was dinner time and everyone were settled in Singhania mansion's dining table.

Richa- is rajveer not gonna join us. We can wait for him.

Raj- No need. We all will starve to death waiting for the man. (Both women were glaring me) what, ask akash how he is.

Akash-  Raj is correct though. He doesn't remember anything else other than work.

Everyone retired for the night.

It was around 1 am when rajveer came back.

Veer- this room never felt this empty. How many days are you planning to stay away kitten. Let's see.
