Criminal's love

Part-6

Arjun Sighania :-

Arjun continuously punched the punching bag with bleeding knuckles but didn't stop for once ,

He is angry and hurt but still he is not willing to believe that he has any feelings for Adhira

In his mind Adhira 's engagement picture revolving where jai is holding her hand and about to wear her ring whereas her face is not seen in the picture because of her hair ,

He thought "why am I feeling hurt ? She is no one for me. It is good that she is getting married now. She will not be able to fight my case. "

He understands himself and sees his bloodied knuckles and makes a boring expression by looking at it ,

Then he looks towards the window, lying on his seat. Today is a full moon day so the moon is shining in the sky with thousands of stars.

Arjun loves darkness but he is very much attracted towards sparkling stars as well probably because of his mother who used to put him to sleep under the open sky in her lap as a child.

Looking at the moon, he suddenly remembers something so he puts his hand in his pocket and takes out a beautiful pink shining crystal of Adhira and starts looking at it ,

Due to the light of the moon that crystal also starts shining brightly, Arjun sees it and remembers how Adhira grabs her collar while he has been putting her on bed ,

Rita Sighania ( arjun mom ) :-

"Rita doctor told you so many time that you are not in condition to go outside then why you went outside yesterday morning ? " mr singhania tell her angrily ,

But she did not show any reaction on her face and lay on bed quietly while staring at the ceiling ,

After looking at her quietly he sits at the corner of the bed and lovingly patt her hair while telling her " Rita it's been 2 years now , why are you punishing yourself for his sins "

Listening to him she immediately looked at him with tears in her eyes and said " because he is my son Raj he is our own you tell me how can I forget my own son ?

it's been two years and now I can't live without him , i don't have energy now raj I... d.. don't...have " she tell him while crying ,

Raj love his wife so much and he can't look at her in this condition so he get up and starts going but then he stops turn back and tell her in calm tone " I have heard that Government decides to review unsolved cases pertaining to prisoners as a goodwill gesture so there are chance that he may too come out " he said and immediately left the room ,

After listening to him Rita became so happy and joined her hand in the air " Finally you have listened to me and my prayers , lord thank you so much you ,

I will always be indebted to you . I thought I would never be able to fulfill the promise made to my daughter, but everything will be fine because of you "

Then she starts remembering the day when she convinced Meera to celebrate her birthday ,

PAST :-

" Ramu kaka where is meera ? Did you see her anywhere ? She asked her house helper John about meera while entering inside the house ,

" Yes I saw her coming from college some time ago, maybe she is in her room madam singhania " He told her and she nodded and went to her room ,

Meera is a beautiful confident modern girl with a kind heart but due to the abundant love and care of her father and brother makes her little arrogant and proudy and she is really haughty about being a singhania ,

Rita goes to Meera's room and sees her standing at the window while thinking about something ,

she goes near her and is surprised to see her tears " meera " she calls her , Meera immediately turns around while wiping her tears and asks Rita happily " yes mom "

" Meera ! Are you crying, daughter " Rita asks her and Meera starts laughing ,

" Mom, seriously ! Do you really think Meera Singhania will cry ? never " she told her mom confidently ,

" Ok miss singhania I understand that you are not crying " Rita knows that she is lieing but still for making her happy she said ,

" By the way Miss Singhania, May I know why you are refusing to go to your birthday party ? She asked her ,

" Because I want something as a gift on my birthday not any stupid birthday party i am not kid anymore mom " she bluntly said to her ,

" Just tell me my princess what you want. I will definitely give it to you " she asked her again ,

" No mom you can't I know even dad could not give it to me then how you will give it to me ? '' She completely denies her because she knows that her wish can't be fulfilled ,

Rita become surprised by learning that Raj deny her princess for anything and now she really want to know that what's her wish so she insist her again ,

" Ok I will tell you but I know you are also not able to give me that " she told her while looking at her confidently ,

" Tell me first ? " Rita asked her directly by looking at her ,

" Mom I want arjun bhaiya ( brother ) on my birthday with me as a gift and without him I will never celebrate my birthday " she tells her straightly with sadness clearly visible in her eyes ,

" Meera but " By looking at her sad face she interrupts her and tries to explain to her that Arjun can't come to her ,

" No but's and no If's mom please , I will not celebrate my birthday without arjun bhaiya and that's it " she tells her angrily and starts going outside but suddenly she stops by listening to her mom ,

" Ok you will celebrate your birthday with your brother now ? " she asks her confidently while looking into her eyes ,

" I know mom it can't be true you can't fool me as I was not kid anymore " she told her by looking at the window ,

Rita makes her sit down on her bed and ask her " Baby , Have I ever lied to you ? "

Meera nodded no and said " But mom how is it possible ? Dad clearly told me that there is no chance of his release or bail. Then how will he come to my birthday ? she asked her with curiosity ,

"I will tell you but you have to promise me two things ? " Rita asks her and Meera immediately nods in yes with a smile on her face ,

" Firstly you have to promise me that you will celebrate your birthday happily because if your brother will come out and get to know that just because of him you were not celebrating your birthday ,

then he will be very hurt " listening to her tears start forming in her eyes but she hates to cry and show emotions in front of anyone as her brother and father so she controls her tears ,

Rita continues " second thing is that you have to promise me that this little secret will be between us forever ,

And you will not tell anyone in your life because if your father will get to know about it then no one knows how angry he will be " she said in the last line with sadness because she didn't want to hide anything with her husband

" Ok mom I agree with both of your conditions now tell me ? she asked with excitement ,

" Do you know Priya Maasi's ( maternal mother ) husband is a minister in the central government ? " she asks meera and meera immediately tells her ,

" Obviously mom I know ? " she said casually as she is close to her maternal uncle and aunt ,

" I convince him to reopen Arjun's case again without letting anyone know that I convinced him " Rita tells her and by hearing her Meera stands up in surprise ,

" But mom If dad knew about it, he would be very angry with uncle, " Meera told her mother ,

" Don't worry you never know about it because your uncle 's friend indirectly gives order to our state government to reopen some case along with Arjun's case so that no one will suspect anything especially your dad " she said and meera immediately hugged her mom happily while telling her ,

" Mom , till now I was a fan of dad and Bhaiya only but from today onwards I will be your fan too " she said ,

" But mom, what about lawyer dad will not allow us to hire a good lawyer for bhaiya, " she told her sadly ,

" You don't know that your mom is more intelligent than your dad. I already hired the best lawyer for your brother " she said in amusement ,

" Mom, what if dad denies the lawyer ? " she asked her with worry ,

"The lawyer which we hired is not exactly hired by us for the world , she was hired by the government " Rita explains to her but Meera does not have any knowledge about this matter so she asks ,

" Mom I can't understand anything " she tells her in confusion ,

" According to our law You have the right to appoint an attorney and If you cannot afford an attorney because of money or any reason ,

So one will be provided to you by the government but in our case our attorney is chosen by one of the most famous lawyers of the country , she is her assistant. Even that lawyer who fought our case did not know about it. She also thinks the same that she is appointed by the state government ,

so it's only between me and jai Mittal and now you " she suddenly stands up and happily starts dancing with her mom in excitement ,

" Mom you got me the best birthday gift thank you very much " she said while dancing with her ,

They both happily dance with each other thinking about Arjun's release from jail.
