Karthik was moving towards his class in a fast pace fisting his palms angrily thinking, “did tht Mr. Sarna really said or rather say ordered…..I think no….but he surely did that how dare he……I can’t even open my mouth urrghhhhh and why didn’t MAA said anything to him. Is it because of some softcorner for him…. No it might be something different becuz I know Maa aise nhi karegi haa kuch or hi hoga, abh tho sunn raha hu main apka Sarna but next time I wont….” but his thoughts were broken by Sri who was literally running behind Karthik to stop him and asked, “kya kar rhe ho karthi itna gussa kyu, princi ne un dono punishment diya na chill maar kuch nahi hua he choti ko itna gussa acha nhi hota karthi!!!!!” Karthik just looked at his brother and sighed hardly and said, “it’s not about that Sri, buy I won’t say about it, tum khud jaan loge abh filal kuch mat puch” Sri frowned but for now he let it go and dragged karthi towards their class, picked up their bags and went towards Shikha’s class, only to see her running towards them and seeing it both the boys loudly said, “Chotii sambaal ke ghir jaoge”
Shikha slow down her pace and tightly holded both the boys hands and walked towards the entrance of the school to meet their parents.
They came outside the school to see Twinkle and prani and kunj thinking something deeply.

Well the moment Kunj Twinkle and prani walked out of the cabin they were walking with a lots running to their mind..
Kunj’s pov
What did actually happened there did I defended Twinkle over there… It’s somewhat true tht how can tht lady say such things to Twinkle. Obviously uske khudh ke nahi hoge but she did raise them up and I can say that they might not doi anything wrong. But me defending her was a rg8 thing? Prani ko obviously bura lagega.. seeing her husband defending his ex even though she is her sister tho… (He looked towards prani thinking it but frowned more seeing her having a smile in her face) but she is not looking like tht too…. Usse koi issue nahi he? But I think I should try to be frnd with Twinkle again. I had done wrong but I hope it’s not too major…. Oh god I hope she didn’t suffered more than I think

But suddenly the trio’s attention went towards the kids who just shouted worriedly and went towards them to see karthik shouting at Shikha and Sri consoling her…
_______
When the kids came outside the school just to see Twinkle and prani and kunj thinking something deeply. But the boys concentration shifted towards Shikha who just jerked their hands and ran towards the elders…and they both shouting worriedly, “Chotiiii for God sake don’t run”. But it was too late as she just tripped and was going to fall but was caught by Karthik and jerked shikha towards himself holding her in his arms securely. But their shout was already heard by Kunj, prani and Twinkle who heard them and came towards the kids only to see karthik scolding shikha seeing it kunj was angry and was going towards Karthik but stopped by prani who nodded in no.
Ka – Didn’t I said that don’t run……kitne baar bolu tumhe gir jaati tho… Lag jaathi na fir tone lag jathi….agle baar tum bhaage na tho dekhlen main or Sri tumse baat nahai karenge yaad rakhna… Abh bagogi????….m asking you something shikha……
Shikha was just sobbing but then to she was clinging to Karthik who just holded her by one hand and other hand just fisted due to anger. But seeing her cry Sri rubbed her back and said to Karthik, “enough karthi…you are scaring her….aagle baar aisa nahi hoga hain na baby….aap nahi bagoge na?”
Shikha nodded in no and said, “Promise I won’t run, but please monstu gussa na ho, m sollyyyyy” said Shikha looking at Karthik and pouted cutely holding her ears which lead Karthik to smile and hugged her kissing her forehead. Sri smiled widely but faking a sad face, “you both always leave me behind, I hate both of you” shikha looked at Sri narrowingly and said, “bhai zyada bhav mat khao and yaha aooo” Sri smiled sheepishly and hugged them. And kissed Shikha’s forehead.
But their moment was disturbed by Twinkle who went towards them and and sat on her knees and said lovingly, “I missed this alot…. I m sorry my kids.” Shikha turned and hugged Twinkle and said, “Saturday and Sunday it’s our time aap voh de do aap ko maafi mil jayegi, and for bhai saturday is the day” Twinkle and shikha laughed and boys just scrunched their nose in disguise. But latter the boys heard, “didn’t you both missed me?” Boys ran towards her and said, “mom how can we not miss you… We missed you alot”, prani just hugged them and the boys reciprocated it with a smile. While kunj just looked at boys and felt a different connection even he didn’t knew y but he did feel something for them. But for now he thought to shrug that feeling and coughed gaining their attention.
Ku – Uuhhu uhhu…. Well even I am here.
They a turned towards him
Sr – Hey Mr. Sarna we meet again..
Twinkle looked shocked and looked at the boys
Tw – where did you guys meet?
Ku (looking at Twinkle) – we met near the school last week in ice cream parlour I guess..
Pr (faking surprise)- oh yes you did said about them to me… Wooo matlab tum pahle hi mil chuke ho?
Sri – ya mom we met. He wanted to buy icecream for shikha so Bhai let him buy it. But I didn’t knew that he was your husband. Muje krthi ne bola tab malum pada
Karthik shifted uncomfortably seeing all looking at him
Ka (shuttering) – Ummh… I think we should….move from here….
Kunj looked at the boys and said, “what about we go to the same shop and talk?”
Prani straightly forwardly said, “oh yess chalo”
Ka – nahi mom will meet later..
Shi – monstu chalo na… Bahut dino baad we are going na.. chalo naa plzzzzzzzzz
Ka – lekin… Choti..we are meeting tomorrow naa….
Twinkle looked at Shikha and sighed….
Tw – chalo kids will move towards the shop
Karthik looked at Twinkle only to see her assuring him and he sighed and followed them
They reached the parlour and ordered their flavours….. Boys were just seating silently not knowing how to talk as Kunj was meeting them for the first time and being the introvert they are. They choose to remain silent… And may be guessing them. Kunj asked Twinkle, “Twinkii!!!!”
Ka (instantly) – she is not Twinkii for you call her Twinkle.
Kunj looked shocked hearing him. Twinkle and prani just looked at him and them looked at eachother with “he knows it” look.
Sri – sorry Mr. Sarna actually he is possessive towards mumma so.. he said like that.
Ku – ohh it’s ok but don’t call me Mr. Sarna. You can call something else.
Sri just smiled lightly and said, “what to call you”.
Shikha interrupted, “bhai aap papa ko dad bula saakhthe ho”
Kunj, Twinkle and prani gasped hearing shikha and looked shocked hearing it and karthi just fisted his hands controlling himself.
Tw – but choti aisa kyu… Voh uncle bula saakhthe he ..
Shi – are maa….main isliye boli kyu ki bhai and monstu mumma ko mom bulathe he na tho papa ko dad bhulane dho..
Prani looked at Shikha blankly and then smiled widely saying, “are sahi bola ammu ne… You both can call him dad it will be best vaise b u both Call me mom tho unhe dad bolne me kya jaatha he”.
But kunj was just seating their blankly but listening to prani he looked at the kids and said slowly, “I don’t have my issues you both can call me.. you both are like my Shikha only……”
Twinkle was just staring at her kids… Karthik was just looking down at his lap controlling fisting his palm and srilok who was looking at Kunj with a different look… But before they can say Twinkle spoke, “karthi……sriii!!!”
Karthik looked at Twinkle and then he knew what to say and Sri looked at Twinkle and he also knew what he wants… As looking at Twinkle both the kids knew that Twinkle asked them to follow their hearts and that exactly what the kids do…
Sri looked at Kunj and slowly asked, “are you sure that I can call you dad?”
Karthik and kunj looked at amused and kunj said, “you can call me but before that I want you to Introduce yourself first”
Sri smiled, “hello Mr. Sarna m Srilokh Nair Son of Twinkle Nair, bhai of Shikha and devil of Dadi and Mom”
Kunj smiled and asked even though he knew who, “dadi?”
Sr – Shikha’s dadi is also my dadi soooooo
Kunj, “you can call me dad buddy”
Sri grinned widely and said, “thankuuuuuu dad”
Listening to him calling dad kunj’s heart skipped a bit….but he just ruffled Sri hair and then looked at Karthik who looks at him with cold eyes and asked, “even you can call me dad champ”
Ka – I don’t want to call you dad….
Ku – why? Did I do something!!!
Ka – aap kuch kare ya na kare voh aap ki marzi he but muje voh karna he jo meri maa ne muje bola he follow my heart.. and my heart said that don’t call you dad.. so that’s y I can’t call you that…
Kunj’s heart unknowingly pained hearing it.. why even he didn’t knew but for now he just looked at Karthik who was looking at him with angry, sad, and longing eyes but more than that it was hurt. Kunj was shocked seeing that kid looking at him with such emotions, but he got hold of himself and asked, “then what would you call me?
Kar – Uncle is fine with me
Prani and Twinkle’s heart pained looking at Karthik who was just thinking something silently
Shikha and Sri just looked at eachother and then moved close to Karthik and holded his hands on their palm and said, “Monstu/ Karthi you know na we both love you” Karthik looked at then and nodded knowing what is coming, “then you should know that we don’t like this daddy face of yours” said Shikha. “Tho uske liye ek chizzz kar sakthe he and that is” Sri said and both Sri and shikha hugged him from both sides and kissed him hard on his cheeks which brought a wide smile In his face.
And looking at his smiling face even kunj’s, Twinkle and Prani’s face got their smile back..
Sri/shi – We love you
Kar – love you tooooo….
Twinkle’s house
After coming back from the parlour Sri was roaming around the house with a smile that reached his eyes and Karthik was opposite to Sri.. he was just blank n didn’t knew what should he do.. and while eating their dinner she thought to ask them about it finally breaking their thoughts.
Tw – Karthi……sriiii….can I ask you something
Kids looked at her and said, “obviously maa/mumma”
Tw – are you both really comfortable with Kunj….?
Sr – I don’t know mumma but you know, kuch tho hain jo it’s making me happy. What it is it…I don’t know but I’m happy today…
Twinkle looked at Sri and realized that he was unknowingly loving his dad. The same person who doesn’t even know that there are two child apart from shikha who are his. But she will make sure that he doesn’t come to know. She doesn’t need him back in her life not in any way, he can be her friend that too a normal friend but can never be a best friend. But karthi was just frustrated he wanted to call him as his dad but that small heart of his is not able to do so….why then he know about his mother’s suffering and being a complete mumma boy he won’t let anything happens to his mom and will not be able to forgive Kunj also for making his mom suffer and spoiling their childhood.
Tw – karthi you didn’t say anything
Ka – I am not happy maa….becuz I don’t feel anything for him maa….(said directly looking at her )
Tw – today you are sleeping with me ok?
Karthik just nodded
Tw – and Sri I hope you will sleep akele, and if you want you can continue reading diary….
Sri looked at Twinkle and nodded at her.
They finished their duties and today Sri took the diary and went up and Twinkle and Karthik decided to sleep down today….
Twinkle encircled her arms around Karthik and pulled him close to her and asked slowly, “what happened bachaa, you already knew about Kunj hain na?”
Karthik snuggled close to her and whispered, “hmm maa I knew”
Twinkle strocked his hairs slowly, “kaise and kab?”
“Do you remember maa, ek din aap ko ghar aane me bahut deri hoge bola tho aap ne socha ki hume Avni maasi ke ghr chod denge and suddenly when dadi ko patha chala tho she said she would stay here until you come”
Twinkle nodded realizing it, “but tumhe dadi ne bataya kya”
Karthik nodded no and said, “That day when dadi and Sri went outside for making the setup for something for time pass that time to change my t-shirt I opened the wardrobe and when I was looking for my t-shirt suddenly main ne ek corner main aapke saree ke piche mene teen book dekhe… And you know na maa main bahut curious hota hu tho I just took that book in my hand and then I realised that it’s a diary so when I opened it I saw your photo and your name. So mene socha ki me pad Letha hu tho dadi and Sri aane se paahle mene voh diaries mere bag me daala and then mene voh book upar ke bed me daal diya.. and then went towards dadi excitedly and enjoyed with them.”
Twinkle was surprised listening to it she knew that her kids were having her genes in them tho curiosity is must so she giggled at first to which Karthik turned confused and asked, “aap has kyu rahe ho maa” schooling her head she said, “I was just wondering there are some things that you got from me and am thankful to that”
Karthik then snuggled again close to her and Twinkle wrapped him with her arms, “then at night when you came I asked you to sleep with Sri down and I myself went up and within three days I finished reading three diaries maa… And when I read first one I was sad thinking about you and when I read second one I was angry and hurt and third one was tho muje bahut ganda laga maa. And jab yeh sab hua tho I didn’t knew what to do, aapse sab share karna chahta tha maa but me nhi kar paa raha tha and main b tho bacha hu maa tho socha kab time hoga tab I will ask you, but usse pahle yeh sab hogaya”
Twinkle just pulled him closer and kissed his forehead and then said, “karthi har ek ke life me humesha khushiya nahi hoti jaan, and Babaji pe barosa tha muje ki jitne sad moments mere saat hua he utna hi ache moments bhi mere saat honge and bus I was waiting for that moment. Main bahut khush thi bacha bachpan me mom dad used to love me a lot we were happy in our small world but then achanak se papa ne ek baar priyu ko humare zindagi me laaya, n muje bola ki yeh meri behan he I was happy a lot, but dheere dheere mom dad usse pyaar karne lage and kyu bole tho just becuz they thought that when priyu aaye hamre ghr tab se bahut achese chizze ho rahi he and then said is their luck charm… But in dauraan I was being ignored mere hr pasand chize priyu ko psand atha tho voh usse dethe the…and mera dhyaan hi nahi tha…but I used to love priyu alot isliye mene kuch socha nahi.”
Twinkle stopped and looked at Karthik who were looking at her with that sad innocent eyes and she heard him asking, “aapko mom pe kabhi gussa nahi aya maa,”
“Nahi shayad isliye kyu ki muje ptha tha Ki she to loves me, equally and mom dad ke vajah se y should I harm her so muje kabhi gussa ya kuch or feel nhi hua……. But then that sadu Entered my life bahut acha chal raha tha life muje lga muje meri khushi mil gai, kyu nahi I had a partner who loves me and then muje malum pada ki mere pass mere bache honge mere saat tho khush tho hona hi tha hain na?” Karthik nodded with teary yet a sweet smile. “Pahle se ptha tha ki voh sadu ke liye uski family pahle athi thi n then it’s me… And I was ok with it kyu family hi first preference honi chahiye, but one should not give in to whatever family says, but here uss ne unke dad ki baat maan li and muje choda. Mere liye lade nahi… But jab tak muje patha chaa tab tak late ho gai thi kyu ki unki shaadi already ho gai thi meri behan ke saat and yeh malum pada ki voh b isliye becuz priyu b unse pyaar karthi thi.. but mere dad ko ptha tha about me but fir b unhone priyu ki shaadi karayaiii, me piche hatt gai totally and then decided that, jisko meri life ki, meri decision ki, meri wishes ki Khadar nahi ho why should I waste my time for them, and me unke life se bahar nikli”
Karthik just looked down hugging her and asked gritting his teeths, “aapne Mr. Sarna ko kyu nahi bataya mere or Sri ke baareme,?”
Twinkle sighed, “already unki shaadi hogai thi n voh mere liye lad nhi sakthe tho unka haq b nahi banta mere bacho ke baareme jaana, mene voh kiya jo muje sahi laga jaano but in sab me tumari dadi meri saat tho kabhi mere saath nahi chodi voh humesha saath thi ek maa ki tarah tho muje or kya chhiye and abh finally m the happiest in my life because I have my two kids with me, and ur dadi and shikha thts what makes me happy.”
Twinkle kissed Karthi’s nose to which he made faces but later kissed her cheeks to which Twinkle smiled widely, “so aap ko Kunj ko Papa nahi bolna he?”
Karthik – jo admi meri mumma ki kadar nhi krthe the tho me b nahi unki kadar nhi karunga… I love my MAA alot more than anyone….. So even if he got to know about us in future I wouldn’t call him tht ever… Becuz as you said we should always follow our heart no matter what and main vahi karunga mere dil ne unhe nhi apnaya tho he would be my uncle thts all nothing more…
Twinkle just smiled lightly seeing how karthi loved her and said, “you will be my proud I know”
“Me usse vaise hi rakhunga kabhi badlunga nahi, and am your son na maa tho ek or baat I will behave ok with Mr. Sarna but not too friendly, shikha and mom ko b pyaar karunga.. unhe differentiate nahi karunga…Promise”
“Haye mera bachaaaa,abh sojaao kal shikha aur sab aane vaale he tho ladki baane ready raho” said giggling Karthik just hide his face in her crook of the neck hugging her in embarrassment and winned, “maa yaar I hate it”
“You can’t do anything dear aab saja mili he tho bughatna hi padega, by the way tumne sri ko kyu nhi bataya?”
Karthik looked at her and said, “he is not strong than me in such things soooooooo”
But he got a smack from Sri and looked at him who was glaring at him with a teary eyes and here Twinkle and Karthik looked at him and pulled him towards themselves.
When Twinkle and Karthik were talking to eachother about this Sri read it quickly and when he got to know who his dad was he was hurt and angered so before jumping into conclusion he came down and heard Twinkle asking Karthik about informing to sri and listening at his answer he smacked his head and then..
(I will update about the diary part differently all together in next Chapter)
Sri just sobbed hugging Twinkle and said in between, “I m confused …..pathaa….pathaa nhi (sob) mumma…. Kya kru……(sob) I don’t know……he is my dad….. (Sob)And voh already choti ke dad he mumma….. (Sob) Galat kiya he unhone but….(sob) patha nahi mummaaa”
Twinkle just pulled Sri closer and asked, “aapko unhe Dad bulana he?”
Sri looked at her with a teary eyes which were confused so Twinkle continued, “follow your heart jaan I will support you, tum dono ko right he jaane ka apke dad kon he and you guys got to know abh kya krna he tum decide karo, my kids are smart enough to do what they want….”
Sri just said, “even if I would call him dad my first priority will always be you mumma, and if dad hurts you again than I don’t know main kya karunga”
Karthik just smiled slightly and said, “abhe gadhe rothulu munh dho kar aa chimpanzee lag raha he!”
“Chimpanzee kisko bola?” Asked Sri in anger
“Yaha or koi he tere alawa, maa ko me voh nahi bolunga she is an angel tho obviously tu hi hoga na” Karthik sarcastically said
But before they could continue Twinkle pulled them and smilingly said, “I love my kids and now time to sleep kal ka ka dekhenge and abh jo he apne pass hi rakho Kunj ko shakh b nahi ana chahiye about you guys ok?”
Kids “ok maa/mumma, waise we live u toooooo”
Twinkle kissed them which they reciprocated and slept hugging her….
Twinkle thought, “Kunj, priyu muje patha nahi apna future kya hain aage but if any time in future I got to know tht my kids are being injured becuz if any one of you mujse bura koi nahi hoga, Twinkle Taneja ko Maar diya sabne but yeh Twinkle Nair ko koi nahi jaaanta sivay maa ke…. Bus Babaji sab sambaal lena…. specially Karthik ko he is same like him impulsive and aggressive”
She once again kissed both their forehead and slept hugging them close to her……
But when Twinkle was thinking about this Karthik mind only said one sentence and that was, “I hate you Kunj Sarna I hate you just because of you me and Sri lost their childhood and maa suffered to raise us up, Sri might call you dad, but I won’t ever do that”
Thinking he snuggled into Twinkle
And here Sri thought, “I love my mumma more than you dad and I will only support mumma more, just becuz mumma once said that every part have two sides so I will wait till know your part and when I feel it’s equal sharing to my mumma’s pain then you will get your Srilokh with his actual behavior otherwise I would just be a name sake child of urs thats all”
But in all this they both wanted one thing and that was Kunj to get to know about them and make him suffer a bit…. But let’s see what destiny is actually planning for them.
They three hold on to each other dearly and slept in their love land….
