Purvi couldn't sleep the whole night thinking about Rajat…he was in jail because she couldn't gather the courage to tell her parents the truth about her being responsible for everything...her guilt was disturbing her peace of mind…she remembered doctor Rajesh and thought to take his help.

she called doctor Rajesh and asked him to come to her house the next morning.…she was having breakfast along with her family when doctor Rajesh came there.

PurviF (getting up) - Rajesh tum yaha? Iss vaqt?

Rajesh - haan! mujhe Purvi ne bulaya tha!

Purvi (moving closer) - doctor uncle mai apne treatment ke liye taiyar hu.

PurviF (shocked) - treatment? kaisa treatment?

Purvi (nervously) - papa! aapne jo case Rajat sir par kiya hai vo please aap withdraw kar lijiye, unnki koi galti nahi hai!

PurviF (shocked) - ye kya bakwas kar rahi ho tum? case withdraw kar lu? uss aadmi ne tumhe behla fuslakar, faayda uthaaya hai tumhara…teacher ke naam par kaala dhabba hai vo, aise insaan ko jail mai hi hona chahiye!

Purvi took a deep breath and told everything to her father in details…her father was shocked to discover the truth…his anger was on it's peak.

Purvi (teary) - I am sorry papa….mai…before she could complete her sentence,she received a tight slap from her father

Purvi was shocked at her father's sudden act…he never even talked to her in a high pitch and today he had slapped her…she touched her cheek and tears formed in her eyes.

Rajesh (coming in between) - ye kya kar rahe ho tum? jawan ladki par aise koi haath uthata hai kya?

PurviF (teary) - ye thappad agar pehle maara hota to aaj ye din na dekhna padta…mene humesha ek baap bankar nahi ek dost bankar apni beti ko samajhne ki koshish ki! Kya kami reh gai thi meri parvarish mai Rajesh?

Rajesh (trying to console) - mai samajh sakta hu ye sab bahut mushkil hai tumhare liye lekin Purvi ki bhi koi galti nahi hai!

Rajesh told him about Purvi's psychological disorder…her family was extremely shocked to know about her being abnormal.…Purvi's father sat on the chair with a thud, holding his head...Purvi moved close to him and sat on the floor near him.

Purvi (holding his hand) - I am sorry papa! maine ye sab jaan bujh kar nahi kiya…mai kabhi aapka bharosa nahi todna chahti thi lekin pata nahi mujhe kya ho gaya tha….I don't know papa, please help me get out of all this….please help me…she kept her head on his laps and started crying bitterly

Purvi's father withdraw the case the same day and Rajat was freed from jail.

Purvi's father was seating in his room along with Rajesh.

Rajesh - mai jaanta hu Ravi, ye sab aasan nahi hai tumhare liye lekin samajhne ki koshish karo! tumhari beti ko tumhari jarurat hai, sirf counselling help nahi karegi, usse tum logo ki care aur support ki jarurat hai! vaqt lagega lekin dekhna ek din vo bilkul thik ho jaayegi aur dusro ki tarah ek normal life shuru kar paayegi!

PurviF (teary) - meri to kuch samajh mai nahi aa raha mai kya karu! Purvi ki pregnancy ki vajah se kisi ko muhh dikhane layak nahi rahe hum…logo ko to nahi samjha sakte na ki ye sab kin haalato mai hua!

Rajesh (assuring) - jo hua usse to hum badal nahi sakte, ab aage kya kar sakte hai vo sochna hai…he kept his hand on his shoulder…mene Purvi ke abortion ke baare mai ek doctor se baat kar li hai…sab thik ho jaayega! don't worry

Voice - Abortion?

Rajesh turned hearing the voice and saw Purvi entering inside.

Purvi - ye aap dono kya baat kar rahe the? mai apna abortion nahi karwaungi.

PurviF (shocked, angry) - ye kya bakwas kar rahi ho tum? abortion nahi karwaungi se kya matlab hai tumhara?

Purvi (teary) - mai apna abortion nahi karwaungi…she touched her belly…ye mera bacha hai, mai apna abortion kabhi nahi karwaungi! kabhi nahi.…she ran towards her room murmuring the sentence continuously

PurviF (angry) - dimag kharab ho gaya hai iss ladki ka! bahut ho gai isski manmani, aur bardasht nahi karunga mai.

Rajesh (trying to calm him) - please shant ho jaa! bachi hai vo abhi, mai usse baat karke samjhane ki koshish karta hu.

Some Days Later

Purvi was responding the counselling, Doctor Rajesh was sure that she will get fine with time.

Rajesh was trying hard to convince Purvi for the abortion but she was not ready to listen anything…he requested soumya to talk about the matter to Rajat.

Soumya went to Rajat's house to meet him.…they both were seating on the sofa beside each other...soumya was trying to convince Rajat.

Soumya - Rajat ji aap samajhne ki koshish to kijiye….

Rajat (angrily) - kya samajhne ki koshish karu mai? uss ladki ne mera career, meri reputation, meri puri jindagi barbad kar di hai aur aap mujhse ye expect kar rahi hai ki mai uss ladki ko maaf kar du?

Soumya (trying to explain) - mai aapse ye nahi keh rahi hu ki aap usse maaf kar do lekin samajhne ki koshish to kijiye! vo ladki aapke bache ki maa banne wali hai.…anjaane mai hi sahi lekin galti to aapse bhi hui hai! aapko apni galti sudharni hi hogi.

Rajat (in disbelief) - aap kehna kya chahti hai? mai sab kuch bhul jaau aur uss ladki aur usske bache ko apna lu? aapne hi kaha tha na soumya ji ki rishte mai pyaar bhale hi naa ho lekin izzat ka hona bahut jaruri hai…mere dil mai naa to uss ladki ke liye pyaar hai aur naa hi izzat! hai to bass gussa aur nafrat….his eyes filled with tears…I am sorry if it sounds cruel or mean lekin acha yahi hoga ki vo apna abortion karwa le.

Soumya(calmly) - mere kehne ka vo matlab nahi tha Rajat ji! mai jaanti hu ye sab kuch itna aasan nahi hai lekin aapko ye samajhna hoga ki ussne jo bhi kiya vo jaanbujhkar nahi kiya…mai ye nahi keh rahi hu ki aap usse maaf kar do lekin iss vaqt usse help ki jarurat hai…sab log usse samjhane ki koshish kar rahe hai lekin vo manne ko taiyar hi nahi hai! mai bass aapse itna kehna chahti hu ki aap ek baar uss se milke usse samjhane ki koshish karo…shayad vo aapki baat samajh jaaye!

Rajat (sitting on the chair) - pagal ho gai hai Purvi! usse samajh mai nahi aa raha hai ki usska ye decision kitna galat hai! usski umar hi kya hai? abhi abhi 17 saal ki hui hai vo…usske saamne usski puri jindagi padi hai….iss vaqt usse apne career par dhyan dena chahiye, vo mentally aur physically bache ki jimmedari lene ke liye capable nahi hai!

Soumya (seating near him) - aap please ek baar Purvi se baat karke usse samjhane ki koshish kijiye…please apne gusse ko thodi der ke liye bhul jaaiye! uss ladki ki jindagi ka sawal hai, please help her.

Rajat was not sure what to do but at the moment he decided to put his anger aside and talk to Purvi.

Rajat reached Purvi's house along with Soumya…she talked with her parents and asked the permission to let Rajat meet her…they were hesitant at first but agreed after a lot of convincing.

Rajat entered inside Purvi's room…she was very happy to see him

Purvi (happily) - Rajat sir aap aa gaye….she hugs him…mujhe pata tha jab aapko ye pata chalega ki mai pregnant hu aap mujhse milne jarur aaoge…mene net par padha tha ki baby jab aata hai to do logo ke bich pyaar aur badh jaata hai aur fir vo kabhi alag nahi hote.

Rajat was shocked to hear her statement….she wanted to keep this child just to be with him.…he calmed himself and separated her.

Rajat - Purvi! baitho yaha par…he make her sit on the bed and he sat on the floor near her

Rajat (holding her hands) -Purvi! meri baat dhayan se suno aur samajhne ki koshish karo….tum abhi bahut choti ho, tumhare saamne tumhari puri jindagi padi hai!

Purvi (confused) - kya matlab hai aapka?

Rajat - dekho Purvi, mai jaanta hu tumhare liye ye samajhna bahut mushkil hai lekin mai tumse pyaar nahi karta aur naa hi kabhi kar paaunga…tum apna abortion nahi karwana chahti kyunki tumhe lagta hai ki shayad bache ki vajah se mai tumse pyaar karne lagunga….apne dreamworld se bahar niklo Purvi! jo hua vo sab bhul jaao! apne future ke baare mai socho…abhi tumhe apna career banana hai, life mai bahut kuch achieve karna hai…he cups her face…tum samajh rahi ho na mai kya keh raha hu?

Purvi (teary) - ye aap kya bol rahe ho? aapko pata hai na humara baby aane wala hai…he kept his hand on her belly…hum dono shadi kar lete hai aur fir aap, mai aur humara baby humesha saath mai rahenge…she smiles with tears…humesha bahut khush rahenge….bahut khush rahenge..she breaks down and started crying

Rajat felt bad for her…he knew it was not completely her fault…she was just helpless

Rajat (cupping her face) - Purvi meri baat suno! meri taraf dekho….tum mujhse pyaar karti ho?….she nods her head…agar tum sach mai mujhse pyaar karti ho to meri baat maan lo! ye pagalpan mat karo, apna abortion karwa lo…apne future ke baare mai socho! please?

Purvi looks away with tears continuously flowing from her eyes…she wanted to keep this child to get Rajat's love but that is never going to happened..he will never love her after what she had done to him but her heart was not ready to accept the truth.

Rajat - tum meri baat maanogi na?

Purvi nods her head in yes and started crying keeping her head on his chest…Rajat was seating still, he didn't return the hug.

Six Months Later

Purvi was getting better day by day with the help of counselling and her parent's love and care…she didn't see or meet Rajat in all these 6 months because of her own good…

Purvi and her parents were shifting to Bangalore forever…they were standing outside the airport meanwhile Purvi saw doctor Rajesh coming along with Soumya.

Soumya had helped Purvi alot in all these months and after her counselling started her behaviour towards Soumya had also changed.

Soumya (smiling) - kaisi ho Purvi?

Purvi (weak smile) - mai thik hu soumya di!

Soumya took permission from Purvi's parents and took her in the parking area of the airport.

Purvi - di! hum yaha kyu aaye hai?

meanwhile Purvi saw Rajat coming…she was surprised as well as happy to see him after 6 long months...though her obsession had been cured but she was still in love with him.

Rajat (small smile) - kaisi ho Purvi?

Purvi - mai thik hu sir! aap yaha kaise?

Rajat - tum jaa rahi thi to isiliye milne chala aaya...he forwarded a book towards her…ye meri taraf se tumhare liye ek chota sa gift.

Purvi (taking the book) - Thank you sir! isse mai humesha sambhal kar rakhungi…she hugged the book

Rajat (keeping his hand on her head) - take care!

Purvi nods her head in yes…meanwhile her parents called her and she walked from there still looking in backside taking glimpses of Rajat.

Soumya - Thank You Rajat ji! aap mere kehne par aakhri baar uss se milne aaye.

Rajat (small smile) - nahi aana chahta tha lekin aapne request ki isiliye aa gaya.

Soumya - kya aapne usse maaf kar diya?

Rajat(looking at her) - kya aapne mujhe maaf kar diya?

Soumya was stunned at his question….she didn't had any answer for it and looked down.

Rajat - naa aap mujhe maaf kar sakti hai naa mai ussko maaf kar sakta hu…hum kitni bhi koshish kyu naa kar le, lekin kuch jakhm aise hote hai jo vaqt ke saath bhi nahi bharte….ussne jo mere saath kiya hai vo mai kabhi nahi bhul sakta aur naa hi usse kabhi maaf kar sakta hu lekin agar mere yaha aane se usse khusi milti hai to mai uss se ye khusi nahi chinna chahta, bass isiliye aa gaya.

Soumya (understanding) - mai samajh sakti hu!

Rajat - suna hai aapki shadi hone wali hai! aap khush hai na?

Soumya (smiling) - haan! mai bahut khush hu.

Rajat (understanding) - mai aapke liye bahut khush hu! chalta hu.

She nods her head and they both walked from there in opposite directions.

Rajat was standing near his room window watching the moon lost in his own thoughts.

Rajat (in mind) - shayad kuch log jindagi mai sirf isiliye aate hai taaki hum kuch sikh sake…iss ek saal mai bahut kuch hua hai jo mai chahkar bhi nahi bhula sakta…ye jindagi bhi badi ajeeb hai, hume kisi ki importance tab pata chalti hai jab hum usse kho dete hai! Purvi ne apni infatuation ko pyaar samajh liya aur mai kabhi soumya ji ke liye apna pyaar samajh hi nahi paaya…he moved to his study table and picked a book…ab to sirf inn kitaabo ka hi saath hai…sach kehte hai log ki koi saath de na de kitaabe humesha saath deti hai…he hugged the book and a smile appeared on his face

Purvi shifted to Bangalore, her treatment was still going on…she was alot better now and was happy with her present life…she was seating in a park writing something in her diary.

Purvi (writing) - apne junoon aur pagalpan mai bahut galtiya ki hai mene, bahut logo ko taklif pahuchai hai! lekin kehte hai na insaan apni galtiyo se hi sikhta hai! mene bhi bahut kuch sikha hai…jo hua usse mai badal to nahi sakti lekin koshish karungi ki aage kabhi aisi galtiya na ho jisske liye jindagi bhar regret karna pade…I still love Rajat sir but I have realised love is not possession…pyaar khusiya chinne ka nahi, khusiya dene ka naam hai…Rajat sir se durr hone ke baad ahsaas hua ki sacha pyaar kya hota hai….mai jaanti hu vo mujhse kabhi pyaar nahi karenge lekin ye jaante hue bhi mere dil mai unnke liye pyaar aur izzat kabhi kam nahi hogi…mene unnke saath itna bura kiya lekin fir bhi unnhone mujhe apni jindagi ki bahut badi galti karne se rok liya…he is the best person I have ever meet…bass yahi chahti hu ki vo jaha bhi rahe, jiske bhi saath rahe bass humesha khush rahe….

suddenly a ball hits on Purvi's head…she started rubbing her head and looked in front.…a cute little girl was standing in front of her

Girl - sorry didi! galti se ball aapki taraf aa gaya.

Purvi (getting up) - koi baat nahi…she smiles…aap mere saath khelogi?

The girl agreed and Purvi started playing with her happily…suddenly the girl pulled her hand and planted a soft kiss on her cheeks.

A smile appeared on Purvi's face with the sweet gesture of the little girl and she happily hugged her.

THE END

A/N - I was very confused regarding the ending but after reading your opinions I thought to give it a neutral ending...It's a happy ending in a way, not a fairy tale happy ending though but it's a win-win for all! they are not together but happy in their individual life...I know nobody would be happy and satisfied with this ending but a fairy tale happy ending was not possible for this story...will come back with a happy Rajvi story soon...thanks for bearing with this story :)

Dear Guest (cheers ) I thought to give up on this story in starting itself but your reviews gave me motivation to complete it...thank you so much :) PS - can you please write your name this time?
