chapter 7
Unmarried Mother
No one can say what's going to happen in his/her life after one minute, it was the right line to explain that moment. When I turn and saw that person who was carrying my daughter in arms and walking towards me, I was stunned and looking towards them suddenly it felt that sky was full of dark clouds. He came and stop infront me and release Adwiti and I was just looking at him continuously. For a minute we didn't say anything to eachother and only stared to eachother after a while Adwiti started talking " Uncle this is my brother Aarav, and we are twins, I'm 20 minutes older than him" . Then she pointed towards me and said " this is the main person with whom I specially wanted you to introduce, this is my mom". Then he looked at me and extend his hand and said "It's a long time, how do you do !". For a certain time I was speechless because I don't know how to react. Should I be happy or sad, should I smile or cry ! Finally unconsciously I extend my hand and said "Really It's a long time Aditya " . Aditya yes I knew him. He was a person from my past, who couldn't be forgotten in future also. I didn't know what he was thinking but there was a silence and calmness on his face. I didn't want to stay at that place at that time. I can feel the passed cloud's return, before we can talk further Sudha came, yes Sudha was also there but when we were waiting for Aditya she got a call so she was on phone. Sudha came and got shocked by my expression she said to Aditya " Hlo, Mr. Aditya I'm Sudha Smriti's friend so you are the recent most talking topic in our city. It's a pleasure to meet you the IAS officer Mr Aditya Roy". To avoid our silence and akwardness Sudha started talking to him, reached she was a good friend who could understand my feelings just looking at my face. Then she started talking to him about some work and condition then suddenly she asked him " I have a doubt, Do we know eachother before this ! I have feeling that I saw you somewhere" he replied " just ask to your friend at home, she knows me better than anyone else". Suddenly my heartbeat increased I got nervous and said " Sudha let's leave quickly, it was a long day kids are tired" my words were interrupted by Adwiti" mom you didn't even invited uncle for dinner how can u say to leave!". Before I could say anything Sudha said " yes, why not if our princess wanted we must invite him" and said to him " Mr Aditya we want to thank you for today can u accept our invitation?" Then to avoid him I said" He is a busy person how can u guys behave like this?" Actually I didn't wanted him to come. So I said" it's not anything important you are a busy person if you don't have time then it's ok we can understand", suddenly he said" I will come", I was shocked and again I didn't want to look at his face. So I said bye and leave that place quickly even I didn't look back. Because he was the only person with whom I always wanted to meet but didn't wanted to face. This person from my past was someone I know very well .
