Skip if you feel uncomfortable
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*looking around everywhere*
Wh- why are they all in white clothes...?
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*looks up at him*
Fuaji, why are they all crying? Where's Maa? I don't see Papa...
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*heart ached and carry her*
Akshu... We're going to see Papa...
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*nods lightly in confusion*
Okay...
Pravin carried her in the middle of chaos where everyone's eyes were teary while looking at little Akhsu with pity
Everyone were murmuring with concern and pity for the little kid who lost her father at such young age
With heavy heart, Pravin took her inside the room where Rajesh's body was lying
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*scared and turns her face*
Fuaji!!! Who's that? And why is he covered in red colour?
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*consoling her and controlling his tears*
It's Papa Akshu... Let's meet him beta...
Little Akshu was scared but still turned around when he said it's her Papa
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
Papa?
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*put her down*
Papa is sleeping beta... H- he's tired that's why...
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*walked slowly towards him*
Rajesh Rathore (FL Dad)
*lying on the floor covered with white clothes and red color on his face*
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*went numb while seeing him*
P- Papa is tired...?
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*wiping his tears*
Y- yes Akshu... Papa is going on a long journey... So he's resting...
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
L- long J- journey...?
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
P- Papa...? You're going alone...? Why are you not taking me and Ma...?
Her innocent question left everyone else in the room shocked and emotional
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*heavy heart and bends down*
B- because only Papa can go there... Akshu and Maa can't go there beta...
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*looks at him innocently*
W- why not...? Papa would never go anywhere without Maa and me...
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*hugs her and looks at his body*
(Ohh My friend... What will I do without you...?)
Pravin was not only Rajesh's Brother in law, but also his best friend
Even though her Grandmother (Dadi) hated Akshita and her Mom, Pravin was always on their support
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*carried her and got up*
Let's go beta... Papa has to go now...
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*turned around*
For the last time she looked at her Dad with unknown pain in her heart
The little girl couldn't understand anything but still feeling everything
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*hesitant and waves her hand*
B- bye Papa... Me and Maa will be waiting for you... Come soon okay... Bitto loves you Papa!
Rajesh Rathore (FL Dad)
.....
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*sobbing silently and patting her back*
With heavy heart Pravin left the room and went upstairs where all the women were gathered consoling Urja, Her mom
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*sobbing miserably and screaming*
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*scared and standing in front of her*
M- Maa...?
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*holds her hands and crying hard*
Bitto...
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*crying miserably*
पापा चले गए... हमें अकेला छोड़ कर चले गए!!!
{Papa has gone... He left us alone and went away...}
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*shivering and sweating*
Little Akshu couldn't hear what her Mom kept saying continuously
She was totally numb, she could only see her mother's throbbing pain and cries
Her body couldn't move or react to anything
She just kept sweating and shaking
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*faints suddenly*
Dharti Kumar (FL Grandma/Nani)
URJA!
*hold her and crying*
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*looks around the hall*
Manisha Solanki (FL Aunt/Bua)
*crying and helps Urja*
Sulekha Rathore (FL Grandma/Dadi)
*sitting silently while joining her hands*
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
....
Each and every person were crying or getting emotional
But her Grandmother, she didn't even shed a single tear on her son's demise
After the rituals ended, Sulekha after his son's 13th day demise went towards them
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*patting her back*
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*sleeping on his lap*
Sulekha Rathore (FL Grandma/Dadi)
Send both of them back to their house... I don't want them here anymore...
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*shocked*
Maaji what--
Manisha Solanki (FL Aunt/Bua)
*shook her head*
Let's get them settled... They don't need to stay here...
Urja was hospitalized for a week after her husband's demise
She was completely silent and numb, her loss was unimaginable... Nobody could relate how she was feeling now after her husband left her alone with their little child
But looking at her only daughter whom Rajesh cherished like treasure, she gathered strength
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*got up slowly and carried her*
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*sleepy eyes and mumbling*
M- Maa...?
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
चलिए दीदी...
{Let's go Sis...}
Manisha Solanki (FL Aunt/Bua)
*nods lightly*
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*clenching his jaw in anger*
Manu! This--
Manisha Solanki (FL Aunt/Bua)
*shook her head*
Mahesh and his wife will shift here with Maa after their wedding... Let's just leave for their peace...
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
....
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
Wedding?! It's not even a month since he--
*close his eyes and took a deep breath*
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
And you're already talking about wedding?!
Sulekha Rathore (FL Grandma/Dadi)
एक बेटा तो चला गया... दूसरा थोड़ी खोना है मुझे...
{One son is gone... I don't want to lose the other one...}
Sulekha Rathore (FL Grandma/Dadi)
अब जो भी है उसी का तो है...
{Now whatever it is, it belongs to him...}
Rajesh was the eldest among 3 of them... Manisha the middle child, And Mahesh was the youngest...
Sulekha never approved Urja as her Daughter in law because she gave birth to a daughter, She left for yatra on the day when Akshita was born
Rajesh after that decided to get a separate home for 3 of them and settled there leaving Sulekha and Mahesh alone
Manisha Solanki (FL Aunt/Bua)
*sighs helplessly*
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*angry and about to say*
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*walks out of the house with Akshita*
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*heard everything but didn't understand*
Manisha Solanki (FL Aunt/Bua)
*grab his hand*
Let's go...
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
....
Pravin Solanki (FL Uncle/Fuaji)
*glance at Sulekha with disgusted face and left*
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*nods lightly*
Yes... it was an accident...
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*flinched and stops*
Urja was sharing the accident that caused Rajesh's demise after years with the orphanage director
Akshita and her Mom always used to visit the orphanage on her husband's death anniversary where he had donated his eyes
Akshita never knew any details till date as she was very young to understand anything
Now she was 14 when she finally learned how her father left them
She accidentally heard her Mom that he died because of the bus which was too speedy and caused 6 people's lives including Her husband
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*trembling and falls on the floor*
The thud sound made everyone gather around in worry
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*patting her cheek*
BITTO! GET UP!
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
GET UP BITTO!!!
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*jolt up in shock and got up*
Urja Rathore (FL Mom)
*shouting from the kitchen*
10 बज गए महारानीजी उठिये!!!
{It's 10 am, Get up already your highness!!!}
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*hold her head and sighs heavily*
(Again this nightmare...)
She got up and looked at her bedsheet and pillow which were soaked with her sweat
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
....
She changed the bedsheet and left the other one in the laundry basket
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*looks at herself in the mirror*
Akshita Rathore (FL/Akshu/Bitto)
*smiles and nods*
Let's just start the day~
